Self delusion has no longer become an option. It has become impossible to wear my normal working clothes anymore.
Roomy dresses, elastic pants and comfortable shoes rule. Getting around during the daytime doesn't really feel any different (afterall Weng Weng still weighs under a kilo) but my lower back really hurts at night. Hubby tried putting a cushion behind my back last night so I could sleep better. Seems to work quite well. Unfortunately, I still woke up waaay too early this morning and can't get back to sleep.
Weng weng is not kicking as much as she usually does this week. Wonder whether its because she's sugar high. For lunch yesterday, my boss and I shared a whole peking duck dipped in sugar and plum sauce. For dinner Hubby and I downed a passion fruit soda each. As a post dinner snack, I had a cone of durian ice cream and famous amos cookies.
My energy level is definitely higher than what it was in my first trimester. I can stay out longer, am more productive at work and feel more alive. Not sure how long this will last though. Am keeping my fingers crossed.
Looking forward to my block leave from the 20th Dec onwards. Christmas is beckoning and I must really pace myself for all the fun and feasting, lest I fall sick.
