Baby, Oh Baby....

Oopps... what I am going to post today might turn the guys off!! hahaha.... well, this post is for ladies "eyeing" only but if u guys can give some friendly advice, please do so....

My fren is in her full bloom pregnancy now, anytime now, another new creation will come out into this world. She is in her 40th week and according to the doctor, her baby now weighs around 4.1 kg!! Doc also said that her pelvic bone is not ready yet ... sigh.. Poor young mama, she is so anxious to see her little girl and she feels so "heavy" nowadays...

This afternoon while chatting with her to take away her "blues", we took some pictures, just for rememberance and what her legs are "suffering" at this moment... tell me, mama-s here, do your feet swollen during the later stage of pregnancy? I forgot about mine ... so many decades ago...


her full bloom...
baby comfortably "swimming" inside her womb


her poor swollen feet....
poor mama-to-be


my fleshless foot compared to hers...

  13. I remembered my feet size went up from size 8 to 9 during the last few months of pregnancy. I can to buy a new pair of sandals otherwise I had no shoes for work. After Ashleigh was born, when I left the hospital, I could not wear the shoes anymore - too big! Yes, feet up, cut down on salt as well.

  19. 4.1kg in just 40weeks of pregnancy..OMG. But the good things is, they both healthy.. not easy to be a mum.. thanks mum!

  20. Wow. That's a huge baby. Ryan was only 2.2kg when he arrived on the 34th week. My wife's leg was only slightly swollen towards the final months of pregnancy. Putting her legs up did help. Always salute mommies for the period that they go through during pregnancy. I was with my wife in the delivery room. Was excited, scared and anxious at the same time. But, the moment when Ryan came out, priceless!

  22. Michelle, my buddy said her feet look like baby elephant..

    yes, stp, thank God, no such "frens" such as u mentioned were with her...

    c.alv & Daddy Ryan, she is going to have a big baby, yes.. she eats like normal..maybe due both husband and wife's physical appearance.. :) anyway, we pray for smooth delivery for the baby girl...

  24. gosh i remembered how i ballooned up in my pregnancy too... and same thing.. pelvic was too small for delivery so got to go emergency C-section.. but things have a way of working out. tell her don't worry. the man up there takes care of everything.
