A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short.I read that quote in a Mummy's magazine yesterday, and I think it's very very true....especially since the most important part/component of a marriage is the communication. Without the communication, it's nothing. (And of course, i don't mean communication in the most literal of senses!)Went for my doc check-up yesterday..... I'm now 72.4kg! But I'd expected worse....and well, it's only a 2.4kg weight gain from the last month... so it's not that bad la...... =) Baby now weighs 2.5kg..... a tad bit heavier than he/she ought to be, for that's the average weight of a 36week old foetus...and Baby is only 35 weeks and 3 days old....I'm getting increasingly tired each day, and my back is seriously breaking from the added weight....doesn't help that I'm still having my stuffy nose and cough..... so sleeping each night is a real problem.......I just puked on my bed last night coz I was unwell...... and that was at like 1am..... sighz... was telling Darling that this is in prep for Baby's arrival!Hmm...the check-ups are gonna be weekly from now on....because I'm about a month away from the estimated due date........ with every check-up there's gonna be monitoring of baby's heartbeat..... and well, that means extra cash to fork out...... it's so stressful coz we've already spent 600++ on buying all of Baby's necessities...... and there was more money to fork out yesterday as deposit for doctor's fees for delivery.... plus the investment in our videocam.... sheesh..... I truly truly feel broke. Just as we were planning to save more money this month, we ended up spending more...... this is truly eating into our savings.... sighz......and there's still baby insurance and savings to come! Boy oh boy.... I just hope we manage......Anywayz.... school's finally out for me.....rushed all my assignments out on Sunday night till 3 am...so that I've nothing outstanding anymore and can focus my attention on the multitude of things to be done right now.....We're still fretting about choosing a nice and suitable Chinese name for the Baby..... sheesh....it sure ain't easy....can't believe we actually bought a book titled "Choosing Auspicious Chinese Names". Super cheesy can? But we really have no idea, and we detest common names.... can't help that we often link a character of a person to his/her name..... ah well.....Alright.... washing machine's beeping...more baby laundry to hang!
