big o

i have been wanting to eat big O cheesecake from nydc or big O cafe and this has been pushed back since i know i need to do the ogtt test last month. i finally had it today after my yoga class. since my blood sugar test had been quite good and i really wish to eat it. i got darling to agree to share it with me. at least, i don't eat too much and have the whole of sun to digest all the unwanted sugar and be ready for another round of test on mon. 

darling was saying that i play cheat but its so satisfying to be able to eat it. i really miss it a lot. the next thing that i would like to have is the good wood park hotel durian puff. for this, darling says he will buy for me but i'm only allow to eat one. well, its better than having none right. but i think i better be a good girl and keep away from the durian puff.

full month's cake

after checking with father-in-law this morning, he decided not to hold any full month celebration for baby. so we will just buy cakes and distribute to relatives. will most likely do the same for my parents' side too. 

we are still deciding if we want to hold a little celebration at our place just for our friends. 

i have shortlisted a few places, please give your comments on them.

3rd glucose test

i'm having my 3rd round of test today. this morning wanted to eat 2 soon kueh for breakfast but couldn't have it cos auntie put sweet sauce for me. so the soon kueh end up in darling's tummy. then i order for kueh teow prawn soup and yet i was given kueh teow noodle soup. so angry. didn't have a good start. hopefully, the rest of the day will be smooth. 

 

result:

• before breakfast - 4.4
• 2 hours after breakfast - 5.6
• before lunch - 4.8
• 2 hours after lunch - 5.4
• before dinner - 4.1
• 2 hours after dinner - 6.2 (although its within range but its the highest score so far)
• before supper - 4.9

i'm so blur today. almost forget to test after lunch, was late for 10 minutes. then at dinner, again forget to test before eating. i took a few spoonful then i remember. quickly drop my spoon and started pricking myself. so sotong. 

 

today, is really not a good day. i try pricking myself and fail to get any blood out twice, end with a total of pricking myself 9 times. i have also wasted 1 strip cos there is too little blood to test. sigh...

premature beanie

i think its almost a month ago, i saw an article on the papers about how some housewives, young adults gathered together to make little premature beanie hats for premature babies. these little hats are meant for premature babies to protect their soft little heads. their accomplished work will be send to countries like india and some other places (can't remember what other place).

after reading the article, i had this strong feeling of wanting to join them in this meaningful activities. i think cos right now, i'm going to be a mum too, starts to feel more towards babies. i want to do something for them especially for premature babies (they are so small and weak). its not hard work, just need a little of my time. i think its really worth it. i treat it as helping my baby to 'ji fu' too.

i contacted them to tell them my interest in joining. i got their reply and started on my mission after getting the patterns for the hats. i had send in my first round of 4 little hats to them but forgotten to take pics of it.

i just got new yarn from spotlight and started working on it again. if you wish to do your part too, can contact mrs jane palmer (palmerjane@ldschurch.org) to indicate your interest too.

surprise!!!

darling was away for camp on our customary anniversary and is supposed to be back only today. i got him a t-shirt as gift and hang it up in the wardrobe like his usual clothes. wanted it as a little surprise for him.

well, he surprises me by coming back to spend the night with me and went back this morning after having breakfast with me. but his surprise came too late, i was already sleeping when he came back. hehehe......

darling saw his new t-shirt in the morning. he spotted it the moment he opens the door. i'm so glad that he likes it very much. 




he give me a little surprise with this little 'bouquet' of flower when he fetch me from work. i didn't expect to get anything from him since he just came back from camp. thanks darling.

glucose test

i did my glucose blood test for this week on mon and yesterday. very pleased to see that my results are within range. the acceptable range for before food is 3.3 - 5.5 and after food is 5.5 - 7. 

 

mon's result 

• before breakfast - 4.6
• 2 hours after breakfast - 5.8
• before lunch - 3.8
• 2 hours after lunch - 5.9
• before dinner - 4.4
• 2 hours after dinner - 5.8
• before supper - 4.9

tues's result

• before breakfast - 4.4
• 2 hours after breakfast - 5.9
• before lunch - 4.4
• 2 hours after lunch - 5.3
• before dinner - 4.7
• 2 hours after dinner - 5.1
• before supper - 4.4

looking at my result, i think can consider it them on the low side bah (自我安慰). heheh..... they are quite consistent too. 

 

fingers feel a bit numb after so many pricks. first day still not too bad but on second day, really feel numb liao. i also have difficulties stopping the little wound from bleeding, it takes a bit longer to stop then usual. wonder what is wrong.

 

anyway next week onwards, i only need to test for once a week instead of twice. yeah!!!

 

anniversary

today marks our first wedding anniversary. although this is our first anniversary, there is no celebration. darling is away for camp for 3 days and won't be back till thurs. guess what, he actually forgets about it. how can he forgets!!! just about a month ago, we were still planning to go back to fullerton for a night stay today but give up the idea cos the rates are too high. for a normal room, it will cost around $500. we rather keep this money to get more things for baby. 

i had even set a reminder in his hp for him and yet he still ask me what anniversary is it. he really 'bo sim' hoh.... guess what makes him remember in the evening? i sms him saying that i'm going to get myself an expensive gift and charge his account since he can't remember our anniversary. he call me back immediately still trying to figure out what day, today is? after lots of guess then finally it strike him that its our customary anniversary. sigh.... are all man like that?

anyway, he did ask me to get a gift for myself. i did see anything i want for myself but saw the pooh bumper from mothercare for baby. however, i didn't get it cos its too too expensive liao.

never thought that for our first anniversary, i have to be 'home alone', not exactly cos i got baby with me. sigh.... happy anniversary to myself.
