It is now time to reveal...

Now that all the people nearest and dearest to both me and husband know about it, it is safe to tell. I'd been waiting WEEKS for my lazy husband to get off his butt and finally call his best friend to tell the man the news.

And now finally I can put it into my blog and finally be able to vent all my frustrations and miseries and happiness online instead of crying my eyes out in the middle of the night and not letting the husband get a wink of sleep.

The poor man. He says he's totally fine with it but I know the man is almost as miserable as I am at times.

Yes, we're expecting...no, not a call although it would be nice for me to get a call from someone once in a while for a chat.....we're expecting a BABY!! YAY!!

It was planned but we're very surprised that it happened so quick. Like a close friend screamed at me when I told her,' I knew it! I knew you're the fertile type! You got the look! The fertile look!' (sigh...I can so imagine Cheryl rolling her eyes at that. I miss her, by the way). I'm not exactly sure what the fertile look is but apparently she's been able to see it since we knew each other at 15. She's got superpowers too!

I hadn't planned to take the pregnancy test since I was sure my period had come but certain differences in the pains I had and a certain gut feeling just made me get up that morning while husband was making breakfast before work and sneak into the bathroom to do the deed.

Minutes later came the results that is to change our lives popped up and I was so shocked, I thought I had read the results wrong. I held the test in one hand and the instructions in the other and headed into the kitchen where husband was spreading butter. He looked at me and frowned in wonder at my shocked look.

'I think I'm pregnant.' was all I could muster.

'What?!' was all he could say as he almost dropped the butter and sandwich.

That was the day before New Year's Eve. What a wonderful gift for the New Year and great beginning to a very exciting year.

Things have been up and down the past few weeks but recently they have been more down than up and it's not a particularly jolly period for me. I wish so bad sometimes I can go home to my mummy and have her take care of me and be able to eat all that I crave because there isn't much that I can eat and that I crave except for Sg food!

I have been dreaming of prata and curry for the past 2 nights. That's how strong the cravings have been but it's miserable when I can't get hold of it and I can't cook it cos I can't stand the smell of the kitchen...hai....

Can't wait for this whole period to be over and the baby to come. January has been the slowest month for both me and the husband since we've met each other. And it's not even over yet!!

ARGH!!!
