Deserted
I have been wandering around lately, searching for what else to do to ease my boredom and loneliness. I stay home most of the time, taking my own sweet time to put my body to rest and my mind in peace. Now I know driving in pregnancy is so taxing, and it is worse if you have to fight the contemptuous traffic jam all the way.
Nowadays, as I’m coming to my 6th month, my body aches easily and I hardly sleep at night. There will always be few times in the midst of my sleep that I have to wake up for loo sessions and fixing my numbed hands and legs. And to get back to sleep? O yes, not as easy as I thought it could be. I have been rolling eyes for more than half an hour before I could end up in another cloud of dreams.
I am bored at home, but I think this is the only way I could have a good rest before I’m urged to classes on some other days. There is no more room for shopping as I don’t find a good reason to do so except looking for maternity pants (thinking of) and buying things for my unborn baby. Still, I refuse to go alone while I only will be meeting my husband twice in a month!
Being alone most of the time gives me more room to reflect. It has sculpted me to be a better vicegerent of God and pinches the hiatus between me and Him. I have to be thankful after all, despite the hardship that He has tested upon me.
So now is my 6th month, and I have gained 9kilos so far! But that is not the only change I’m going through. My skin tone has changed! It is now darker and bleaker. J
Quoted from my husband about my skin, “it’s no longer glaring! Or else, you look so ‘bright’!”
It is a bit weird for me, but once a while, I wouldn’t mind. I have never been this dark in my entire life anyway. It’s all right. My face is different too. It’s now bloated and my nose looks like a clown’s – red and round!
I know I have to lose my weight again, once I have delivered the baby. Going through the tedious process that I have been through a year ago…*sigh….
But by the way, I have got the baby scanned. It’s a boy. J
