IT'S A BOY!!!

I'm so excited now!!! I can finally start shopping for cute little boy clothes in the right colours.

I must admit that I secretly wanted a girl because I already had my name picked out, and all these pretty little layette outfits in my Saks.com wishlist ready to go. BUT as I mentioned before, I think little boys are super cute too and because we are definitely going to have more than one, then I actually prefer the first one to be a boy. PLUS Froggie super super really really wanted a boy so I'm glad we got one and now the in-laws can't complain cos I'm the first to bring a male offspring into the Chang family HAHAHAHAHA I win, I win again!!!

MEANWHILE...

Everyone says that the second trimester is a time of great joy and comfort, as your sickness & nausea have passed. It's supposed to be the easy, breezy trimester but for me, it's been extremely uncomfortable and irritating in comparison to my first cos I had it sooooo easy with no morning sickness at all.

Now I have constant lower back pains from my very quickly expanding belly & weight, round ligament pain (sharp growing pains in my abdomen from all the stretching), severe leg cramps in the middle of the night, dizziness and headaches, and lightheadedness when I sit up. Not to mention my feet have gone up a size which is completely devastating for me, considering all the designer shoes I own.... AND my boobs have gone up 2 bra cups, which is good news but they are sore and heavy and makes everything feel super tight. Plus I'm in a losing battle with the zits and

Ain't no honeymoon trimester for me :(...

The good news is that I've bought lots more pretty maternity clothes and have discovered really great baby things that I've already ordered, like Dior baby bottles and Chloe & Burberry diaper bags :D

At 16 & 17 weeks - look how much my belly grew in 1 week!!!

Eating lobster tonight to celebrate. Gotta love those 12C boobs :D
