Readiness Check

It's any time now!


It's hard for me to grasp the full extent of what that means, coz i dun know exactly what's gonna happen. But as far as we've been informed/ adviced, we're trying to be ready.


I'm crazily trying to prepare the house for baby. Due to unforseen circumstances, i won't be able to have my confinement in Seletar. So we had to move everything back, and get things ready back at home. We're almost there, i think...


Her cot is ready, her clothes are hanging out to dry, a packet of diapers on hand, loads of baby wipes ready... that should cover her eat-sleep-pee-poo routine right?

i've dreamt twice about Glory-Faith's arrival, (both times painless - O God, please let that be a sign of things to come!) and last night munch dreamt baby's here too - also painless! In his dream, i delivered in the middle of the night while sleeping, and we woke up to find a baby in bed with us. the baby looked a bit ang-moh tho, and my mum scolded me..... hmmmmm. dun worry dearie, i swear i've been good. =)

Conducted a readiness check on munchie today (marking papers is b-o-r-i-n-g!) to see if he would be contactable should i go into labour.

First i tried to sms. He replied immediately. Pass Test 1.

Then later in the day, i tried calling. He didn't pick up, but he did call back about 10 min later. Pass Test 2.

Not bad not bad. Response time quite short.

In-laws came over with bird nest again last night.

Realized that this could be my last bowl of bird nest... reckon it will stop once baby comes!

So i took a pic for posterity.


Never, never in my life have i taken birdnest in such quantity and frequency.
Ahhhhhhh.... that's another perk of pregnancy i'm gonna miss....

Oh yes.... One more adjustment that will be coming up real soon...

cgl has been hinting, there were other signs i should have noticed. but i kept trying to pretend it wasn't happening... but pretending doesn't make it go away. it has now returned to stare me in the face, in the form of an edict.

Oh well... *shrug*
