OOoH Ahhh Ouch!!! Pain!!!

Today marks week 28. 7 months old already =)

The intital plan was to visit the gynae today however plans changed and I had to visit the gynae last friday instead.

Wednesday
Woke up feeling fine as usual. Went to the toilet for the normal morning routine. It was when I stood up that I felt a muscle pull somewhere near my tailbone. It was a really sharp pain. THe pain lingered on but it was still rather bearable. The intention was to have lunch with Papa. Not too sure where we wanted to eat so we lingered at home for a bit before heading to marina square. As we didn't have breakfast we decided to go for a buffet. Ended up at Aqua Marine to find that it was fully booked for lunch. =( So we ended up going to Imperial Kitchen for lunch. The journey out was rather torturous on my back. The pain seemed to have imobilised me. Reached home after lunch and all I wanted was just to lie down. Even when lying down i could feel the pain lingering on. I was really praying hard that it will go away after the nap as we got tickets to go watch Voyage De La Vie @ resort world. After waking from the nap, it was evident that I couldn't really walk. Even the few steps to the toilet seemed difficult as I was in great pain. Thus we had to forego the show. Luckily tickets were free. Papa bought dinner and washed up while I could only slowly inch my way back to the bed to lie down.

Thursday
Woke up. Slightly better but there was still much difficulty getting around. I couldn't stand straight at all. I was often hunching and walking around funny. What made it worst was that I could really feel the weight of the tummy on my back. Papa was on leave but he had a golf game in the afternoon so I rested in bed for most of the day.

Friday
The day we were suppose to head to Aqua Marine for our buffet lunch but yet once again never made it. The pain was still lingering in my back though MUCH better as compared to Weds and Thurs. Decided to call TMC to change my gynae appointment as I didn't want the pain to linger over the weekend. Finally I got a slot at 2pm. Papa was on leave to day as well. So he went out to buy breakfast from MacDonalds which we had at like 11am then rested a while before we headed to see Dr Tan. Didn't want to have lunch before going to see her as I was afraid that I have put on too much weight again. However the results was otherwise. I actually lost 500g. =) Not too sure if its a good thing but Dr Tan didn't really comment much. Dr Tan says that Baby R's heartbeat is really strong and he is in the correct position (head down, legs up). Currently he weighs 1kg. Oooo my fatty bom. After that we headed to Novena for a late lunch followed by a walk through the baby fair held at Square2. It was an utter failure I must say.. nothing much to see at all. Only about 10 stalls but I managed to buy for Baby R 4 more front button outfits. ♥♥♥ Then it was back home to rest my back once again.

Saturday
Papa had to work in the morning so I slept in. Was really tired and still nursing the aching back. Pain was a lot less but still there. So was very careful with all my movements. Cooked pasta for lunch and waited for Papa to come home. After that the both of us attended our very first pre-anenatal class by TMC. Was lots of fun.

1/2 the time was spent on listening about nutrition and how to breast feed.
the other 1/2 was on some simple excercises for mummies and daddies. Papa learnt how to massage mummy to soothe her aching body as well.

After the class we met my in-laws and the 2 kids for dinner before sending them back. By the time i reached home. I was ready to knock out.

Sunday
Papa had an early game of golf today. But he was so sweet. He sacrificed his 45 mins sleep to make breakfast for me. Sausage, Eggs, Bacon and Toast. YUMMY! Though it was the earliest I've ever woken in a long time to have breakfast but I woke up just because I felt special that day. Didn't want to disapoint papa too. It was really really sweet of him. After breakfast, he left for golf while i headed back to sleep.

When Papa came back from golf, we headed to pick up his race pack for the Safra 1/2 marathon from Kallang before heading to bishan for a hair cut, then to church and dinner at Akashi before home. =)Initally we wanted to go to Sushi Tei @ Holland V but parking is just pure madness there. Dinner @ Akashi, Orchard Parade hotel was YUMMLICIOUS. Will definately be going back there again. I so miss IKOI!

Till our next post.
