Look out for a Stork carrying a package for Doc Rogue

My second son will be arriving tentatively in one week. I am excited. The same questions again.
Epidural vs Etonox vs au naturale?

Natural vs C-sect?

Excitement vs fear of being confined for1 month? Ha ha ha. I try and cheer myself up with the thought of having my "lihing chicken" and a shot of Dom per day. Hmmmm.

Very busy at the moment with trying to wrap up my lectures and any management reports. I hope to take a break soon after my last lecture. Although I still have to set questions for the exams, I think I will have less to worry about. I can not wait to carry my new born in my arms.

I have been looking at new born photos of My Kiddo. Something we do just before we sleep. I keep on telling him that his brother will look like he used to. Small and in need of a lot of care. He gets this excited look and sometimes touches my tummy. Sweeeet!

I pray that everything goes well. I will try to inform as much people as I can by text when the time comes. :) Meanwhile I will continue blogging when I can. I am so excited. So very excited.

Thanks deana. I prefer Dome. I like it that it makes me really warm.. hahah Wincarnis is also sedap. But I find Dome is very KAU... hahahah ada mabuk a bit. ka ka ka ka ka. Have not drunk alcohol FOR SO LONG!!!

Yup I am hoping to go natural this time. Epidural I think is a must.. Cos the last time I was induced I swear to God that unnatural circumstances require unnatural meds.

Good Luck Rachel. I was wondering oso now this whether or not you gave birth oredi. I wanted to have natural birth for my 2nd one but the doctor said I had a narrow pelvis and the baby's head was not engaged even upon reaching 40 weeks and my chances for a normal delivery was very slim. So i went for elective c-sect, something that I was hesitant to do at first but did in the end. However, this time I recovered much sooner than my during my first delivery(also c-sect), it wasn't as bad I thought it would be, or maybe because I was mentally prepared for it this time.

Whatever you choose, normal or LSCS, hope your delivery goes smoothly. Good luck again and hope to see pics of your baby boy soon.

How did they find a Gem of a Guy?

This blog is not a reference point to give a tried and true method of finding a Gem of a Guy but just a sharing of experience. I have talked to a few friends who had good solid marriages and I summarised what I learned from them in this blog. I wrote it as a continuation to my last blog on why do good girls choose bad boys? Every time I met a friend who had a very steady and good husband I never failed to ask them how they found these guys. The first thing they always say is that they never liked their present husbands initially and that they had other choices whom they preferred more. However their present husbands did not give up pursuing them for months or years. These men did not stop showing them how much they were cared for. These men came to visit the family and genuinely tried to show how they appreciate them in front of their families and friends. These men were not self centered. These men would try and know your likes and dislikes. Eventually the genuine care was evident. ...

Happy Mother's Day!

To all Mothers. Happy Mother's day. I heard from the radio that there was a research done on how much a Mother should get paid if there was something like that. They should get 30K per year. That is for being a cook, house cleaner, carer and at times a psychologist. :) It is hard. I work but I also feel for the mothers who are homemakers. I salute you. I cared for my very sick son for one week at home and the work just does not end for mothers. I am not belittling working mothers for running away from the original responsibilities. I am one myself. I am just saying we should appreciate each other wherever we may be. A mother is a lover to the husband, a house cleaner, a laundry person, a cook, a dishwasher, a carer, a milk making machine, a seamstress, a first aider, a counselor, a giver of life, a DIY expert, and in our some places usually the Breadwinner. Thank you moms for having superhuman strength to do all these. If your kids are still young and nobody thought of giving you a...

Valentine's

Today my first love surprised me with a Valentine's card. It filled my heart almost to popping. I love you My Kiddo. You make me weak and you make me strong. You make me cry and you make me laugh. You make me angry and you tell me to show a happy face.. When I was a teenager, I was a downright Geek.. You were always right Doctor EEEEvil.. I was a Geek. I did not get any flowers, no chocolates or cards on Valentine's day.. This is sooo bloody sad to admit.. hahahha.. Then I went to college and in the world of Geeks.. I became the cool girl. So I had flowers, chocolates, teddy bears and valentine's card. On top of dinner and a movie.. I was spoilt. Thanks ex-bfs for that chance.. hahahhaha.. Then came University. AAAAAaaaah I had soo much anonymous admirers. That was fun guessing. SIGH! Now that I am all grown up and bloomed into.. AHEM.. DOC ROGUE.. The shody-cute simplest pink card with a crayon coloured heart and mozaic angpow tiles makes me feel like a MILLION DOLLARS aaa...
