Being pregnant

The title of this article says it all!This was in last Thursday's Mind Your Body supplement.

Look what it says in the last sentence of the 1st para, "For one, it may make you smarter." Not sure about making me a genius, but at least being pregnant has not made me dull. Which is a common complaint that I hope wouldn't plague me even after delivery. Really thankful that my first pregnancy has been smooth sailing. Believe that this is nothing than God's grace and goodness. The main one being no complaints of morning sickness, which is common for 7 out of 10 pregnant women. And I hope that the swollen feet, stretch marks, etc don't find their way to me too :P

Random observations when I'm pregnant:

1. My pee was bright yellow until recently. Tried to check if it had anything to do with having a baby girl, but findings are all non conclusive.
2. I started to have a slightly hairy belly :P which made suspect if I was having a baby boy initially.
3. Contrary to what I expected, I didn't crave for sour food, but more for spicy food and enjoyed all my tom yam, laksa, chilli.
4. Having a belly means the common opening to most conversations with people I've not met, "When are you due?".
5. Earlier in my pregnancy, I had very vivid dreams which are more boy like in nature, like action movies type dreams. Another reason why I thought I was having a boy at first.
6. I wake up in the morning with my hair parting to my right instead of left making me wonder if baby will have a right parting.
7. I cant decide whether to agree or disagree when they say that Sporeans are ungracious, coz I havent been offered a seat on the mrt all the time.
8. The time will soon come, when a pedicure is not a luxury but a necessity... I have a feel it's going to be real soon.
