Road Trip and What-nots

One thing I hate when I don't write here frequently is that I have more to write in each post! I was thinking of writing about the trip to KK once we got home but the journey got us really knackered that I decided to write maybe once I enter the 26th week. Well, now it has been 2 days since I entered the new week. What happened was I had been admitted to the hospital due to some health issues hehe. And it was right on the day the new school term started. Just exactly what happened in March. And now I'm on sick leave for 6 more days! More time to regain all the energy lost during the road trip :D

Let me just start on the KK trip. DH was at first reluctant to take me to KK by car due to my condition (I've been having severe pain around my tummy area and it hurts like hell whenever I walk). I figured out it would be a waste not to go anywhere and I wouldn't be able to do so for the next 9 months. As always I managed to coax him and we left Brunei on Thursday morning. I was quite worried actually since it was going to be a long journey and it has been 5 years since I went to KK by car. I wasn't quite sure about the road condition and we were going in a small car. Did lots of reading on the internet about traveling during pregnancy and I also sought advice from cousins who just got back. They thought it would be alright since the road condition has improved so much and we could always take some break at the pit-stops to stretch and relax. We reached KK at around 12 noon and checked-in. I felt just terrific, not tired at all (over-excited lah). We stayed at Warisan Square (diff. hotels for the 2 nights) and had a good time unwinding oursleves. I shall just let the pictures tell the story :)

Pit-stop at Sipitang Mosque

 We reached home around 2 in the afternoon and was planning for a surprise birthday party for the not-so-little adik. Texted all her bestfriends and close cousins. Just a mini celebration and yet quite a fun one.

 Stayed at home the whole Sunday getting ready for work. And I just remembered on Monday morning that I was supposed to get mt GTT test done. Went to the hospital at 8. My last meal was at 6.30pm the night before and when they took my blood for the second time around 10am I couldn't stand it anymore. I felt weak and my head was spinning. Went to ER and got admitted for 2 nights.

Now I'm home and was given a six-day sick leave. But I've been thinking of going back to work earlier, as soon as I think I feel better. Owh and the doctor did the US and it's a BOY! And he has been furiously kicking around! SS said that she will  get us the baby box :D I wanted a Winnie-the-Pooh one but DH said it is too girly :S Now that the gender has been confirmed (we saw his 'pistol') we just can't wait to do more shopping weeheee!
