Yikes, stretch marks!!!!

I really, really worry about stretch marks. I have been applying Jojoba Oil Lotion on my bulging tummy and hips everyday after bath. I hope that's going to help!

Don't get me wrong. I love being pregnant. all the attention i get especially from my hubby is just superb. (hope it continues even after birth, hehe!) I am waiting to experience all pregnancy have to offer. I am prepared but the only complaint i have is my aching back and the possibility of having stretch marks.

talking about my hubby, he is just excellent. putting up with my complaints and crazy mood swings and everything else....love him sooo much...

when we watch television, we used to see actresses holding their back and walking as if the stomach is soooo heavy...i used to think that hey, it can't be that bad right? I mean, how heavy can carrying a baby in your belly be? oh please, we don't see a fat person walking about holding their backs like that!! some of them have bigger tummy that the pregnant ladies, and they are walking fine.

but now that i am experiencing it, i know. it's not about carrying the baby, it's just one of those things that expecting mothers have to go through. and the pain....ah, i shall not say it.

last night, i experienced my first muscle cramp on my left calf. I did not know it can be sooooo excruciating. my hubby had to get up and help stretch my leg. the malays call it simpul biawak. I have read about experiencing cramps and wondering when it would come....well, serves me right. just hope it would not happen too frequently!!!

everyone is asking about my baby's sex. what can I say! the kid refused to open up the legs and reveal what's in between...we all have to wait, I guess....
