Ling, so glad you're better now. Agree that bed rest can be boring, had to go thru that for a while in my 1st tri too, but it's what's best for you. Now that you're done with that, just be careful when u move around ok? Pls take care.
lovelytulips, you also, bed rest don't anyhow run hor... ;-P Glad u went to check out on the pulling, cos most of the time, we think pulling sensation is just muscle stretching or whatever. good thing u noticed it seemed abnormal. I think all of us are wondering now if we'll know the difference between normal and abnormal... You pls take care of yourself too ya.
My hair:
So drama, I almost fainted while doing my hair this morning. Think I freaked out the hairdresser. He was applying dye on my hair when I started to feel more and more breathless. But I still "loon", hoping that the sensation will pass. But I felt very hot and stuffy because they always put so many layers of plastic, towel, cape etc etc on us. After a few min, I decided I needed to lean forward a bit, and happily pulled all the towel etc along with me. I think the stylist thought I'm mad. Aft 1 more min, I turned to him and said "Sorry, I can't stand it anymore, can u please remove this!" and I started tugging away at the plastic cape. He panicked and quickly removed it, and I was close to gasping for air, and my vision was going slightly blur. I bent forward for a while, then when I was sure I wasn't dizzy, i stood up to get my blood circulation going. Another stylist quickly got me a glass of cold water to drink (was drinking hot tea, and it made me feel more suffocated), turned the aircon to full blast, and brought me something to fan myself. I fan and fan like crazy, gulped water and paced up and down for like 5-10 min, before I felt normal again. After that, I managed to sit thru the rest of the session with no problems (but was still fanning myself cos I felt so hot, while everyone else in the salon was freezing). It was really weird lor. I even felt ok enough to extend my time there and did hair treatment.
Anyway, apart from the drama, I'm super happy with my hair now! WOOHOO! I've really had enough of the half black half brown nonsense, take photo also so ugly, so I avoided taking pics of my pregnant self. Today, I went to dye my whole head a dark dark brown, almost black (to cover my previous lighter brown), and just did some natural brown highlights. When my own black hair grows out, it won't be obvious. I trimmed my hair too, so it's in better shape now, and also did treatment, so hair smells so nice, and feels super soft now! Even though I had the breathless/fainting spell, I don't regret going today, cos I think if I go at later stage, my tendency to feel uncomfortable should be a lot higher, can't imagine how I can sit thru 3 hours at that point. I'm a happy girl today! (I took many pictures today hahahaha) *dancing around in a silly dance while flipping hair*
