Life in Mono

I am nearing the end of my 2^nd trimester and moving onto the 3^rd. According to statistics and reports, the fatigue and sluggishness will slowly start to re-emerge and I am really dreading it. I was beginning to feel the exhaustion creep back for the past 2 weeks just by walking to work.. The most excruciating time of the day is definitely between 3-5pm.. That will be the time that I totally need to pry open my eyelids with toothpicks!

Mylo has been really active in my tummy and it absolutely thrilled me every time I see a “mexican wave” happening beneath my belly. I managed to capture a couple of short video footages of the movements to send it across to Nic.. It’s during times like these that I am so gutted Nic is not by my side to see his son rumbling in his cozy little home.. Sometimes Mylo would be moving so much when I sleep that he makes me wonder if I am even giving him enough space inside by hugging all my pillows and banana stuff toy so tight!

Life has been in Mono since Nic left for the UK, but the highlight of my week is definitely having Easton over and him just sitting next to me playing with the iPhone.. Sometimes he would just spontaneously stretch out his little hands and give the belly a rub.. its really a very heartwarming feeling.. otherwise the most exciting thing that has happened in my life till date since Nic left was WORK!! :s sad I know…

Now.. I have been eating quite a bit and Lewis has commented today at work that my face appear rounder (shucks).. but it seem that my body has not put on much weight.. Arggg… I hate having the fat face syndrome!! Anyway (just to comfort myself), it’s a pregnant women’s entitlement to get a little round at this period of her life I would say!!
