Phuket and my 3rd trimester

Hiya all!

I better update today.. people have been complaining about me not updating. But photos still gotta wait ok! I've no patience for that as yet.

The trip to Phuket was uneventful. It was fun and restful. I got to shop and fulfil my cravings for Green Thai Curry. However, the trip wasnt as fun as previous holidays as I wasn't able to (likely also that I didnt have the mood to) join in the fun and activities.

The group went on an ATV and Go-Cart ride.. but I had to skip that cos hubby was worried that it may be too rough for me. We went to the beach but I was only able to watch cos of my sensitive skin (always tend to get rashes whenever I swim, so I swore off the sea or the pool). They went partying but I left halfway cos I was worried the loud music is not good for the baby. And for Songkran, they played with water, but I didnt cos I was worried that I might fall while running around.

But it gave me time to enjoy the aircon in the room, watch Star Movies and HBO... went shopping for souvenirs.. ate thai food, pizza and subway... Gave me time to spend with hubby in a relaxed environment. Oklah.. I definitely want to go again some other time.

Today is the day I officially step into the 3rd and last trimester. Only 12 more weeks to go before I become a mother! The second trimester wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. The back ache, the heat, the aches and pains I go through walking, sleeping and basically doing anything whatsoever can be taxing on me. Many a times I spend the night staring at the clock, willing it to go faster so that morning will come. In the morning, I am always tired and zombie-like.... debating with myself whether or not to go to work.

And the thing is, people tell me the worst is yet to come! My goodness! God, please give me strength to go through all this.

Hubby has been great. Frankly, I dunno if I could go through all this without his support. I can't say that he has been helpful with the housework, or is diligently massaging my back daily to ease my pain. But what he has done is to give me more space on the bed to make me comfortable. Taking me all around Singapore at the slightest sign or mention of a craving. He's been more patient with me, giving in to me when I least expect it.. and is very diligent in accompanying me for all my check ups and what nots.

Late at night when I'm asleep, he touches my tummy, hoping for any movement from the babe. And I can hear his chukles when the baby finally decides to acknowledge with a kick. It touches my heart.. so much!

So this trimester is going to be busy. We have to start buying the necessities, and we also have to do some major shifting to make way for the baby. This couple of months, hubby and I will also be attending some union functions that will take away some weekends. Then there's the various family and friends activities like birthdays and chalets, baby's full month party for a friend... whoa, I hope I have the strength for all this.

Ok. Enough about me already. Just wanna tell you guys that Spiderman 3 is out! Go catch it soon! I know I have.. keekee!
