my bun is a grain of rice

yesterday was a good day for me. besides my breasts being very tender and sore, i have no other discomforts. the same goes for today, although it's still early times to be sure. so far, so good, though.

the day before yesterday was the worst. i felt sick all day. my palate feels heavy with a coat of plasticky filament-like taste. hopefully that's the last of it for this whole pregnancy (if only *sigh*)

i've also been taking healthier foods, such as lots of fruits, greens, whole grains, and mostly home-cooked goodies. i reckon these foods somehow contribute to my overall well-being. 'duh', right? i know, but sometimes things are easier said than done. for instance, cooking takes at least an hour out of my day, from preparing to cooking to eating. well, maybe more than an hour. that is an hour plus i put aside from working. what that does to my work is prolong the hours i sit in front of my computer. so, it's not really that simple to have home-cooked meals every meal-time when you're working from home too. i hear my father's voice saying 'manage your time and you'll find that time is on your side'. ok, dad, thanks for that advice, but seriously, have you ever tried being a stay-at-home wife and work from home at the same time? oh, and i forgot to mention, my workload is rather heavy. we (our company) gets an enquiry for a website at least once every week. and most of them would end up hiring our services. so, on average, i'd have to finish up a whole site in a week. from initial planning, to the drawing board, to the actual design, and finally, execution. although i'm not alone, i still oversee most of the designing and framework. that really takes a lot of my time. and then there's always some adjustments or changes by the clients before the final delivery. some clients take as long as 3-4 months to finalise. so, yeah, i try my best to give my unborn child the best nutrients, as and when i'm able to.

i'm so in love. i have an appointment for a first scan in 2 days but i already know i love my baby so much. can't wait to see him/her. love you baby!
