Bloated. Boo hoo. Feeling very much like a whale with thin fins. Honestly, has anyone seen a stick thin hands attached to a body with a big tummy? Ok. bad joke. I've seen a few in pictures and its in Ethopia. Bad joke indeed.

Anyhoo, Hubby Yap's pretty paranoid about anything and everything and making sure that Baby Yap stays in my tubby tummy for a full 9 months and comes out fat and healthy. Only (his) approved food goes in me and sometimes an occassional treat like non-caffinated rootbeer (lukewarm, not cold) and a cheeseburger.

Given my way my dinner would be ice cream, cookies, chips (sour cream!), burgers, cheese, milk and loads of yucky unhealthy stuff.

Update from my latest detailed scan:

1. Baby's doing fine. Just slightly larger than normal *yikes* We scanned to identify things like the presence of the bone structure, baby's brain growth, the 4 chambers of the heart, the spine, the lips intacted, etcetc. Just to see if there are any structural and physical defects.

2. Due to the placenta level is situated slightly lower than normal, I might have complications such as not being able to give birth naturally. Since I have no occurance of "spotting" or bleeding, it should be okay.

3. Did you know that they even measure the tension between the two sides of your ovaries (or what you call them) to see if you could have a risk of high blood pressure and pre-term labour during your later stage of pregnancy? If one side has more tension than the other, you would have a risk. That was me.

Of course, the doctor assured me that this was just a calculation of "risk" that might happen. Who knows, once the third trimester starts, everything will adjust back to normal. Meanwhile, I'll be under observation to see if there are any progress of these things happening. So dont stress and relax!

Now I shall go enjoy my cruise this weekend and eat and eat and eat!
