Bilangnya, sih, bakal jarang update blog. But this boredom in the last few weeks of this pregnancy is killing me softly. Mau ke mana lagi hamba selain mencurahkan hati di blog, ye kan? 😂 Mari kita masuk curhatan (terakhir) tentang kehamilan yang sebentar lagi menuju minggu ke-36 ini! 

Second Pregnancy Journey: Second Trimester (Week 13-28)

Puntenn, mami (banyak) gaya mau lewat 😝

This one was taken when almost hitting 20 weeks!

As I'm writing this post, I'm officially entering the very last semester of this pregnancy, wohooo! 🥳

Perasaan baru hamil, kenapa udah masuk trimester ketiga aja nih?! Dear baby, take your time, ya! Mama masih (agak) betah nih dengan perut besar, meski pegalnya udah mulai berasa jugak *koyo mana koyo?*

Second Pregnancy Journey: First Trimester (Week 1-12)

Akhirnyaaa pecah telor juga bikin jurnal tentang perjalanan kehamilan edisi kedua ini 🎉💖

Meski judulnya kehamilan kedua, rasanya tuh kayak hamil pertama lagi. Alasannya karena; satu, hamil terakhir itu udah empat tahun yang lalu, jadi udah agak burem ingatannya walau ada laporannya juga, sih, di blog. Kedua, hamil kali ini lebih melelahkan, sampai suami juga bilang, "Kok aku jadi kayak belajar ulang ya sejak kamu hamil lagi?". Waktu hamil Josh aku hampir nggak pernah morning sickness, hamilnya enak banget. Bahkan aku merasa glowing lho (i'm diamond, you know I glow up~ *sst, yang tau jangan sambil nyanyi!*) 😆 Jadi suami ikutan bingung melihat aku yang hari-hari lemes banget sampai nggak kepengen makan apa-apa. 

Tick Tock Tick Tock

One thing I (already) knew about my son, that he is a smart boy. 

Last Saturday, it was my first time to attend pregnancy exercises class. A lil bit too late, but better than never.

Pregnancy Journey: 36 Weeks Update (almost there!)

So, we are officially hitting the very 36 weeks milestone, which means our cookie is almost done baking, everyone! Let's recap what has been going on with the belly (and of course the mommy) until this week.  

Baby Essentials (Wish List)

Sejak sebulan yang lalu, udah beberapa teman dekat nanyain, "Eh, lo mau apa buat hadiah lahiran?", sejujurnya aku pun bingung mau apa, hahaha. 

Pregnancy Journey: Second Trimester (4-6 months)

 
As I'm writing this, I am 28 weeks (3 days) already, which means I finally made it to the last stage!  Let's make a recap about the second-trimester journey. Here we go: 

About Baby In The Belly

As my belly is growing bigger (I'm halfway to my last trimester, by the way!), and since I can feel my baby's movement constantly now, there are so many thoughts on being a momma-to-be and of course about my future child.

Not until a year has passed, we just signed our legal marriage certificate and exchanged our wedding vows in front of God. Months later, we thank God that He seems trusted us enough to have this baby. Though this baby hasn't born yet, we want to let him know that he always being loved and he has been such a blessing to us. I wonder if he knows every time his dad showers him with a bunch of kisses, or when we talk to him about things that he probably won't understand.

We had once talked about our expectations when our baby grows up. Like I want this baby to be generous and kind like his daddy, and be brave like his mommy. This baby came with no manual. We obviously don't have any idea how to treat him well. But we also know that we can't shape his characters to what we wanted. He should become what he should become. Because I believe God has knitted himself so perfectly and made him just right. 

Now we just can't wait to hold you in our arms, baby! However, take your time till the due date. Stay strong and please keep kicking, because it's the only thing that assured me that you feel very fine. We love you!

P.S. I found this article written by a hot momma, mother to Brooklyn, Cruz, Harper and Romeo. I ain't nearly like VB, but as a mother herself, she has admitted that how special to become a mom and put precious values on her children.

P.P.S. A photo bonus!

 You may not have any idea about this photo scan (neither do I, the doctor tried to explain while she was scanning my belly, but it turns out to a photo that we couldn't understand). But everytime we got home with this photo scan, we feel more than grateful (:

P.P.P.S. Did I use "he" or "him" to mention my baby a lot? That because we are expecting a baby boy!

Pregnancy Journey: First Trimester (1-3 months)

I spilled the beans to fellow friends on Path already since my second appointment with the doctor. Banyak yang komentar kalau kami cepet banget hamilnya (padahal baru nikah empat bulan lalu), kami sendiri juga nggak expect bisa hamil secepat ini. Iya, sih, nggak ada acara nunda-nundaan, but we still surprised when we found out the two lines. Puji Tuhan ya langsung dipercaya punya anak (:

Sehari setelah test pack, besoknya kami langsung cek ke dokter. And guess what, ultrasound pertama memberitahu kami kalau bayi yang ada di rahim ini, udah umur lima minggu, udah sebulan! Aku agak syok. Karena berarti anak ini udah aku ajak Zumba tiap minggu dan minum kopi setiap hari. Pantes ya, terakhir kali Zumba kenapa ngos-ngosan banget, biasanya nggak. Well... there's a little life in my belly!

I'm already on my 14 weeks and it means I'm coming to second trimester! Sebagai pencapaian stage pertama, aku mau share pengalaman selama 3 bulan pertama kehamilan. Here we go!
