Sharon ...the growing mama..

Here's a pic of Sharon just before we head out for our X'mas gathering with friends. She's into her 5th month now and she has grow much much bigger. As mentioned in previous posts, the babies have started kicking and punching around and that has made resting for Sharon a tad more difficult. It so happens whenever she is moving around, the babies don't move around so much.. only when at rest or when about to sleep, do they start to move around. As expected, as the days go by, it's not going to get any easier so I pray for the babies to be good and for Sharon for strength.

Footballers...we have.

Looks like we have makings of a small-scale football team. The babies have started kicking and they are attacking from all sides. Kinda makes you wonder what they are doing inside there. Well, if you think about it, space is an issue and that kinda makes getting comfortable a continous activity. This has caused Sharon some discomfort and she has not been getting enough rest. Apparently.. only when she wants to sleep, the babies start to kick. hmmm...

Also, Sharon has gained quite a bit of weight.. as of last count, she's weighing in at 62Kg. That's almost a 10kg increase before she was expecting. I think she will reach a target weight of 70kg while the parents are placing their bets on +/- 2 kg of my predictions. In any case, Sharon does not look like she did put on much weight except on where the babies are. Good thing also that she has stopped working. :-)

Will post some pics later...

About 20 weeks now !!!!

I'm starting to feel the babies moving inside.... feels like someone is tugging my insides. Occassionally, I feel a bump on my tummy too. It's a nice feeling. At least I know they are moving inside, no need to see the gynae to know that they are alive & well. For the last 20 weeks, I was always looking forward to seeing my gynae, just to see the babies move, see them in action (kicking, bouncing here & there). Now that i can feel them moving, it's a sense of comfort. But with 3 of them in there, sometimes it feels like a war zone in there too, all moving at the same time, don't know who is doing wat...hahaha... still trying to differentiate who is who..=)

My tummy is also much bigger now, I look like I'm 6-7 months pregnant, but I'm only actually 5 months. Starting to feel tired easily, especially the backaches... it does get unbearable at times. Sleeping is also a problem, can't sleep on the sides too much, the kiddos don't like it, they'll tug at my tummy to get me to change positions...hehehehe..."demanding kids, I have".

Other then that, I'm enjoying my pregnancy..... it's a whole new experience.... enjoying the privillages too... "I'm the queen of the house".... kekekeke =P
