Usagi, glad you feel better after getting your feelings off your chest. Please continue to do so here because we are all here for you
I can understand how frustrating your DH is to you because I just told my DH on Friday that I don't think he is doing enough. I felt very stressed with maid search, CL arrangement and the outstanding preparations for baby. I felt resentful because I work full time just like him yet I feel like I do more baby preparation then him and not forgetting I'm the pregnant one who tires easily and don't sleep well at night. It felt much better after I told him how I felt and the best part is this weekend he did so much! Ha ha! Anyway, enough about me, I hear the first month, especially the first 2 weeks after baby is the hardest. Hang in there and try talking to your husband in a calm manner so that he won't feel attacked, in which case he may withdraw help even more. Try not to get upset because your hormones are still adjusting. I'm sure he wants only the best for you and baby and it is highly likely he doesn't know what to do. (I know I definitely read up more about baby care than my DH!) So guide him and set some expectations for him. Take care!!
Min81, wah 10 weeks already!! Good to hear baby is growing well. Jia you, soon you will reach the wonderful 2nd trimester. You will have more energy and your appetite will be back!! I remember I just survived on cereal in 1st trimester. I shudder just thinking about that period. Ha ha! Yes, I heard about Lakigal, hope she will succeed soon with change of doctor.
Mofmm, you're back! You survived your 3 dreaded days of work!! Good to hear you're going to work from home from now on. When I have difficulty breathing, I try do simple stretches with my arms using deep and slow breath like in yoga. Just did our first load of baby laundry. Just the swaddles alone filled out our drying rack! lol! I think we have more than enough clothes now. Even before baby is here, I already feel that he is spoiled!!
Kittykatty, thank you! Mine will be a scheduled c sec on 29 May. Yes, I keep visualising the moment when baby comes out and being brought to me. I have a feeling I will burst into tears of joy! Sometimes I still can't believe we're going to have a baby after such a long ttc process! We are all so blessed
Enjoy motherhood!
