This girl has been having weighty concerns this past month or so; think the sheer number of people telling her how compact/tiny/neat she is has finally gotten to her. Anyway, they visited the OBGYN yesterday and this girl is pleased that the doctor allayed her weight issues: Firstly, baby is at a great weight/size. At [...]

Sometimes this girl finds it hard to believe that the weeks have just flown by and its February already. Where did January go?! With their initiation into the last trimester, this girl now sees her OBGYN more frequently and as a result, they get to see baby more often too. Which is always nice; if [...]

Today they cross the 30 week mark. At their routine visit to the OBGYN today they got to see Baby again and the doctor, as usual, had to answer all sorts of “is my baby really ok” questions from The Boy who seems mildly obsessed with the health of the baby. Its not surprising, really, [...]

Time seems to have flown and This Girl finds herself stepping into the last trimester with a lot of exhaustion and the knowledge that a lot more needs to be done. Her mental preparation has been going pretty alright; in particular she loves what her pre-natal yoga teacher repeatedly reminds them (especially when they are [...]

As pregnant women go, This Girl likes to think she’s not particularly been wrecked by raging hormones that that cause her emotions to go on roller-coaster mode. She’s kept up with some of her other pregnant friends, their husbands and other by-standers to have they return with tales of weepiness at something as small as [...]

The good news: This Girl is feeling less like a beach whale this week. No, its not that she’s any slimmer (Ha! As though that were possible) but it comes to reckon that she’s learning to carry the extra weight a little better. She’s not put on much elsewhere, like her limbs and such, and [...]

Maybe its the time in her life, but many of This Girl’s friends find themselves mothers and soon-to-be-mothers. And as she sat for coffee with a three month old mom, invariably they got to the topic of pregnancy and, for some odd reason, the body image issues that comes with the baby bump turf. Comparatively, [...]
Pregnancy week 23: looks like I ate ALOT

This second trimester is being a little kinder to this girl. She eats well, she sleeps well (now that she’s figured out the baby’s waking-sleeping kick patterns) and since The Office is officially closed for the year, she’s got a lot of rest up ahead once she gets to the last dregs of paper work [...]
Pregnancy week 22: Gender speculations
Posted in 2nd Trimester, pregnancy, pregnancy weekly on December 1, 2009 | 2 Comments »
This Girl cleared her pregnancy midpoint mark a while back and although they could have found out the gender of the baby some time back they decided that they didn’t want to know. The Boy likes to explain that they like surprises and since This Girl gets to experience the pregnancy first hand and he’s [...]
week 18: thinking a new wardrobe is needed
Posted in 2nd Trimester, pregnancy, pregnancy weekly, tagged maternity clothes, pregnancy, weigh gain on November 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Given that this girl is relatively petite, she’s gotten away with keeping most of her usual wardrobe, sans the tight fitted dresses and pants. She’s had to pack up her pants, skirts and shorts since most of them were bought to fit her then 24″ waist. So, a while back, she traded her low slung [...]

This girl is now in her second trimester where, thankfully, she’s feeling much better these days. The first three months passed in a blur of morning sickness and the accompanying general body malaise- aches, tightness, lethargy… While in the midst of her company’s peak period, she was racked with bouts of sheer exhaustion (the body’s [...]
