While it hasn't always been a stroll in the park, it has been interesting – in a good way, topped with salted caramel. I am bracing myself for tough third trimester as what most experts have forewarned with my new license… license to get cranky.
Despite my preference for savoury foods these days,
I can never resist an ice-cream-accompanied sweet treat

We also found out at the last checkup that Baby S is er, not a girl. That shock took me a good 12 hours to digest. So all the cutesy poo dresses, frilly-frou socks and I-want-for-myself shoesies... Let's just say there is a lot at stake for kid #2 to be a girl. No pressure.

Things I will miss most about being pregnant:
1. The kindness of strangers: It took a while for people to realise but these days, 7 out of 10 times, people do offer their seats to me. The other 3 times? Maybe people think I’m just bloated.
2. Being less harsh on myself: I take things a lot more slowly these days but ironically, this doesn't mean my productivity level has gone down. Maybe I don’t have to be a kan cheong spider all the time… Hmm, food for thought.
3. Feeding the peck: Speaking of food, people seem to think it’s my birthright if I take the last piece of pizza or down more than my share of cake. Thank you for not judging.
4. Sleep: I have always been a light sleeper and never took naps but since being pregnant, I absolutely relish the thought of being able to fall asleep as soon as my body assumes a near 180 degree position.
Things I will NOT miss about being pregnant:
1. Being hot all the damn time
2. Feeling peckish all the damn time
3. Heartburn, I heart you not
12 weeks to go. Here's to a good week ahead!

1 thing I will not miss is random strangers coming up to pat the belly (some even tapped it and I was too shocked to react).
