Baby Bump (actually this was taken in Week 17 but a few days doesn't matter right? haha)
22 more weeks to go. I think i look much bigger than i actually am because I'm wearing white! Hehe cheat one.

I've been craving a lot of sweet stuff this week. Donuts, macaroons, chocolates...you name it! And yes, I gave in. But but but I went to the gym 3 times this week. Yay me.


The amount I'm eating is scary so I better burn some calories. My doctor also mentioned that I gained a little too much weight the past few weeks so I've to try to control that. Gaining too much weight isn't good for the baby and I. Not only will it be tough to shed the "baby weight" after pregnancy, there might be complications so i can't gain too much in a short period of time. Believe it or not, I've gained almost 7-8kg to date :O Haha. I blame my love for food and the "free pass" I gave myself during my pregnancy. AND EVERYONE WHO KEEPS FEEDING ME. LOL. Loving it so much and secretly enjoying this period though! However, i need to cut down on all the junk food ASAP. SELF-CONTROL~~~ I can't wait to get everything settled and start staying home so i can cook at home.


When I was in Bangkok, the bell boy at the hotel asked me if I was pregnant! He has been seeing me since i was like 16...so i think the weight gain is pretty obvious haha. Anyway, that's a first and it made me...happy?! When I take the mrt/bus now, i can sit at the priority seat without getting stomped right? Haha. 

When i flew to Bangkok a few friends asked if one is actually allowed to take the plane during pregnancy.

I called my doctor and did my research and here's the information i found.

Is it safe to fly during pregnancy?

It is ok to fly up to 36 weeks of pregnancy if you are healthy and do not face any pregnancy complications.

If you're healthy and have no obstetric problems, you and your baby should have no trouble in the pressurized cabin of a commercial airliner. You don't need to worry about X-ray scanners at airport security – you're unlikely to exceed exposure limits unless you're a frequent flier or part of a flight crew.

During the flight, the best thing to do is make yourself as comfortable as you can. Request a seat in the middle of the plane over the wing for the smoothest ride or a bulkhead seat for more legroom. Reserve a seat on the aisle so you can get up easily to go to the bathroom or just walk around and stretch.

Pregnant women who sit still for long periods of time are at increased risk of developing blood clots, so walk around the cabin at least once an hour. You can also stretch and flex your feet and legs in your seat every 30 minutes. Wearing maternity support panty hose (not knee-highs) helps keep the blood moving in your legs and reduces your risk of clots and swollen feet.
When seated, keep your seatbelt fastened – under your belly and low on your hips – at all times. Also, drink plenty of fluids (especially water) to minimize the dehydrating effects of dry cabin air. Caffeine is a diuretic, so it's best to avoid drinking coffee, tea, and caffeinated soft drinks before and during the flight.

I LOVE KOSÉ

0
0
Since my last break out from using a BB Cream, i stayed away from it because i didn't want to go through the horrible phase of clogged pores again.

However, when I was given the KOSÉ SEKKISEI range to try out, I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE BB CREAM. Honestly speaking, i didn't expect myself to be such a HUGE KOSÉ fan but i am now a convert after trying the range for myself.




When you apply the KOSÉ SEKKISEI White BB CREAM on your skin, it feels so light and barely there - really different from other BB Creams which are usually much thicker. It makes my complexion look so radiant and flawless! It is really light so don't expect heavy coverage from it. It is really suitable for every day use because i used it every day for 1 week straight! No break outs, no clogged pores!!! It's been almost 1 month since i started using it, i'm almost done with it and definitely getting myself another!


The KOSÉ SEKKISEI White BB CREAM contains SPF40/PA+++. It cares for the skin while covering blemishes and dullness naturally. A whitening BB cream with oriental plant extracts, creating lasting beautiful, translucent skin. It is available in 2 shades, 01 Light Natural Skin Tone and 02 Natural Skin Tone. I am using shade 02 but am considering to switch to shade 01 when i get my next bottle. It is priced at $39/bottle which i think is really reasonable for such a good product!

The other 2 products are Sunscreens.



You can use it on your face or body. For me, i use the BB Cream on my face and the KOSÉ SEKKISEI Sun Protect Essence Gel on my body. A lot of people don't like applying sunscreen on their body because of the sticky feeling, I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND. This product does not leave that greasy eekie feeling at all! It is absorbed by your skin immediately and it is so light. There’s SPF50+/PA++++. It protects your skin from the harmful UV damage and also hydrates your skin like a moisturizer. This can also be used as a make up base if you don't want to use a BB Cream. The KOSÉ SEKKISEI Sun Protect Essence Gel is retailing at $50.

There's another Sunscreen in this range which is the KOSÉ SEKKISEI Sun Protect Essence Milk. It is a milky sunscreen with an emulsion formula and oriental plant extracts. Just like the Gel, it has SPF50+/PA++++. The Milk one is Waterproof which means you can apply it and go swimming or before you go do outdoor activities which will make you perspire! I would recommend the Gel for everyday use and the Milk on days you will be doing outdoor sports. The milk is also very light and non-sticky but i personally like the texture of the Gel better for everyday use.

Psst. KOSÉ would like to reward all my readers!!! The 1st 300 people who quote “Tammy Tay” and show a screenshot of this blog post (on your mobile phones) at any KOSÉ Robinsons or Isetan counter will get an extra 2pc skincare sample with purchase of any KOSÉ SEKKISEI regular-sized product (exclude sundries).
Be sure to Like KOSÉ FB AND IG first okay!

Public voting starts in June and when you vote for your favourite Cinderella, you can choose to purchase a 100ml SEKKISEI lotion at $25,

Week #19 (EDD)

0
0

This week's research for me is pretty interesting. Every week I'm learning something new! Whee~

My baby's estimated due date is in September and if he is born on the actual Estimated Due Date, that will make him a Virgo baby. I'm gonna sound like some crazy horoscope enthusiast but I want to remember the thoughts that go through my mind during this pregnancy so I'll just say it haha.

I personally havent had any bad experiences with a Virgo but 5 of my very close friends had Virgo ex boyfriends and the boys seem to have a similar trait. Hmmmmm.....??? When I mentioned this whole horoscope thing to them 5 out of 5 of them were like "No don't be a Virgo, nooooo!" Haha. Anyhows, I have nothing against the Virgos really but of course, I would prefer my baby a Libra. Why? Because I'm a Libra myself and proud of it! I've said it before but I'll say it again, I have met a lot of Libras in my life and I like most Libras a lot! I'm just biased.....haha. Ok I don't really believe in it 100% but I think it's quuuuuite true to a certain extent. But it's not like ill love my baby any lesser if he is born a Virgo la!!! Don't come and flame me for it ah!

So anyway, if I can go a week past my EDD, my baby can be a Libra! My favorite signs are Libra, Gemini and Aquarius! :) So.... I started reading up on people giving birth a week after their Estimated Due Date and it's common! I always thought baby would arrive no later than the EDD but am glad this week's research taught me something new that the baby can arrive after 40 weeks.

Your EDD is around 40 weeks, most women give birth around 38-42weeks!

Here are some more information I found online...


To calculate your due date, your doctor will take the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP), and add 280 days (the equivalent of 40 weeks). For example, if your last period started on September 1, your due date would be June 7. This method assumes that your period arrives like clockwork every 28 days. If your cycles are longer, you're likely to deliver later than your due date; if they're shorter, expect to deliver earlier.

A first-trimester sonogram is more trustworthy. Your doctor measures the length of the fetus and size of the gestational sac.

But even if your doctor can pinpoint your due date with laserlike precision, don't expect your baby to show up right on schedule. Because, for all the windows into your womb, no one really understands what triggers labor.

If you're a first-time mom, look at your mother's childbirth history. "If your mother delivered one week past her due date, you are more apt to deliver one week past your due date as well."

Once you've passed your due date, you may wonder whether your baby will arrive later than 42 weeks, or post-term. While Caucasian women tend to have slightly longer pregnancies, as do women under 30, no one knows why some babies take their own sweet time. However, your baby's gender could be a clue: One study found that boy fetuses are more likely to go beyond their due date than girls.




(Reading that last sentence gave me more hope hahaha)


That's not the most important lah, ultimately i pray baby will be born in good health with no complications. But yeah, it'll a be nice if he is a Libra like his mummy!! Hehe. Stay in my tum tum longer baby boy!

Swollen Nose?

0

"WHY IS MY NOSE SO HUGE DURING PREGNANCY?!"

I'm not sure if other pregnant women faced the same issue but I AM FACING IT RIGHT NOW!

However, i have problem, i am not sure if my rhinoplasty (it isn't an implant, it is ear cartilage + dermis graft) was a fail and it is the cause of it looking way bigger than my pre-surgery nose or if it's swollen from the pregnancy. I realized how much i love my pre-surgery nose now!!! Everyday, i look in the mirror and it can get depressing when i focus on how my nose looks like now - IT IS BULBOUS....FO REAL. If i thought my pre-surgery nose was bulbous...this current nose is....URGHHH. Some people think my plastic surgeon didn't do a perfect job and i should redo my nose at the end of the year after i give birth since i can still do a revision for free. If i really redo it after i give birth, i will remove the dermis graft done so i can get my original nose back (consulted a few doctors as well as the surgeon who operated on me and getting my old nose back should not be a big problem)! I haven't heard of anyone "regretting" surgery because most people look better than their pre-surgery self but i kinda do. Thank goodness, my eyes doesn't look that different from pre-surgery though. However, there are others who think it's the pregnancy swell. :( :( I don't want to go through the swelling and healing all over again so i reeeeally hope it's pregnant swell. Oh, we'll see at the end of the year! This isn't a HUGE problem anyway and it can be reversed so yup!

Did a research and this is what i found...

"Swelling.

It's not at all unusual for that to happen -- there is a LOT of swelling going on in your body during pregnancy, and that includes swelling in areas that you probably never even really considered to be "pregnancy related" before! Facial swelling is actually fairly common, and although it appears that your nose is "bigger" in some kind of permanent growth sense, the truth is that it will -- eventually -- return to it's normal, pre-pregnancy splendor! It may not, however, happen overnight; I couldn't tell you exactly when my nose returned to normal again, but I can tell you that it took some time.

Body changes during pregnancy are wacky, and a bit tricky because you can't always know really what will "go back to the way it was" and what won't. For example, the feet: many women experience only simple swelling, and their feet DO return to their pre-pregnancy size and shape after the baby is born, while other women will never wear the same size shoe again (and some women experience growth in the width of their feet in addition to the length).

I look at pictures of myself from when I was pregnant, and from when the babies (twins) were newborn, and I think "wow, that was some big nose I had going!" But, it's all normal now. Thank goodness! Yours will be too!"

Baby Bump Week 20

Happy May Day~ I have hit the halfway mark of my pregnancy. Super excited to go for my super thorough scan next week and see my baby again. I always look forward to my appointments cus it's the only time i can see my baby moving and hear my baby's heart beat. 

I had a HUGE shock a few days ago. Rushed to the Gynae because i had cramps SOOOO bad i wanted to cry. Turned out i had an upset tummy and full of gas. Thank goodness it was nothing serious but omg i was soooo worried. Even though i'm in Week 20, i still have that "Fear" of a "M" but doctor said not to because all looks good so far! *thankful*

This week i also got something i never thought i'd own till 30...

My very first Birkin!!!

Black Clemence Leather PHW in Size 30! 

This week was a stuff myself with junk food cheat week. Had a lot of McDonalds and KFC. OHHHH and pints of Ben & Jerry's. I don't know why but one McDonald's Meal (Upsized) does not make me full?! I always have to have an additional side...and dessert. Sinful but....SO GOOD LEHHHHH. Hahaha.

Good thing is, I've really enjoyed swimming recently! I usually can swim quite a lot but now I'm pregnant, can only swim 30min and I'll be really tired. It's good exercise though! Something I can see myself doing all the way till my last week :) 


Read an article about "Skinny Pregnant" recently. I wanted to share the article but sometimes Facebook mobile is pretty annoying....i couldn't find the article again after scrolling and scrolling?? It is scary how a lot of girls are sooo afraid of getting fat during pregnancy they are going on diets. Please, don't. As much as I DREAD gaining weight, I won't do that! It's not good for your baby and you! You can control the weight gain but eating healthier and exercising but try not to skip meals and go on crash diets. It really scared me when i read that because as "Weight-Conscious" as i am, that thought of crash dieting while having a life in me never crossed my mind.


May is gonna be interesting because the new place is gonna be ready! This week is the last week I'll be busy buying some stuff for the place and I can relax! Reeeeally looking forward to showing y'all the new place which btw is designed by my momsie. 

NEW SHOPS TO CHECK OUT AT THE RIGHT HAND SIDE --------> Happy Shopping! :)


Kinda miss doing photoshoots and taking nice OOTDs :'''( been so tired and lazy recently. Energy level still low all week. My life pretty much goes like this now Eat > Swim/Gym > Sleep > Eat > Korean Dramas in Bed > Sleep. Can't and won't complain though! So happy and so blessed i get to have a relaxing pregnancy! :) 

Skinlite Exfoliating Foot Mask

0
0

I was at SASA last week and whenever I'm at such places I always buy a lot of random stuff to try. I was looking at exfoliating scrubs and saw this foot mask pack. The SA said it's super good and that I have to try it so I did! I've tried a few before in the past but this AMAZED me...continue reading if you are keen.


I put it on for an hour and when I was done I dried my feet and it did feel softer but not "baby soft" as I expected. It didn't really feel like it actually exfoliated my skin? Felt a bit cheated then read the back of the packaging and they said peeling only happens 4-7 days after use.


Now that's a bit weird??? I mean when u wash if off and all isn't it off already? I use a mask and then have to wait 4-7 days for the magic to happen. Confirm fake lah. Or maybe my feet is just too smooth already nothing to exfoliate *proud* because after all, I'm one who goes for pedicures monthly so my feet are pretty smooth already.

I have this weird habit if rubbing my feet together before bed time and the next few days it felt normal and smooth. Totally forgot about the foot mask already and then came Day 5, I just finished a long hot bath and was lying in bed. Rubbed my feet together and it was rough like mad! Looked at my feet and THIS SHOCKED ME! It was so gross but I was also happy at the same time because my feet did look like the pic behind the foot mask packaging! Haha. Trust me my feet is normally smooth and i used this just to have even smoother and softer feet and not because i have problematic rough feet. So such a result was indeed AMAZING. Did not know i had THAT much "dead skin".


I slowly peeled the loose dangling skin and whoaaaa?!! It was gross but honestly it did feel slightly therapeutic leh... :X like if I peeled a super big piece id be all "OMG WOW!!!! *amazed* *runs to my mother and shows it to her*" LOL


The next 2 days more peeling happened and it is now ALMOST all done and MY FEET IS SO SOFT AND SMOOTH. It feels even better than after a Classic Pedicure with Scrub and Mask treatment etc. I was told before that it they scrub ur feet with the pumice stone or foot file too much it'll harden the skin too which is true! Usually it's soft for 2-3 days after scrubbing/filing then the skin will start to harden which is something i don't like! Wish i didn't start filing my feet because it was smoother in the past. I think i won't do the scrub/filing anymore and will just use this foot mask, i believe it will keep my feet soft for a longer period! Good product!!

This isn't a paid advert! I'm just happy and amazed!

Here's Baby Bump at Week 21.... you can see the actual size of the bump here! :)

Did the 20 Week Fetal Assessment Scan and all looks really good! :) Baby is now around 8 inches and 350g? Hehe. I am super excited to go for scans, it's like the only time I get to see baby boy moving and see his adorable face.

Everything is going so smoothly! I am sooo happy to be healthy. It was really rough for me a few months back and i'm glad my health is now back to normal.

Emotional week though. Can't seem to hold back the tears for some weird reason. But the week was pretty eventful because i managed to meet all my favorite people this week because it's Freda's birthday and my friends managed to wake up in time for Brunch. Woohoo!




My friends think i look damn motherly now...hahaha. DO I? DO I?!

Weight Gained so far...9-10KG. *gasp* Honestly, i'm kinda clueless where the weight is. Well you can tell i gained some weight here and there (especially my butt and thighs and of course, my belly) but you won't believe me when i tell you it's T-E-N! Even the doctor said i hide it damn well...haha. Truly amazed at my body's transformation in this 21 weeks.

The new place is all ready!!! It's a small place so i decided to go for a clean and classy look with huge mirrors to make the place look bigger. :) More pictures when the photographer comes over!


Mother's Day dinner tonight at Melt The World. YAY... buffet!!! Super excited to eat! I REALLY miss sashimi though....and fresh oysters. :'(  I can't believe I'll have a son to celebrate Mother's Day with next year. O M G.

Baby's Kicks

I felt my baby really kick last week and since then, I have been lying down a lot hoping to feel it more! What does it actually feel like? It the beginning it felt like butterflies in my stomach, very weird "gas in stomach" feeling. Then slowly as weeks past, it gets stronger and stronger and now it really feels like someone kicked you from inside. Haha. 

It's really weird because baby kicks whenever I least expect it? Sometimes it gives me a shock!! And then when I hope to feel it, especially before bed time, he won't move. And also sometimes when he's kicking and I can feel it (sometimes see my belly move slightly), i would ask the bf to put his hand on my belly so he can feel it too but then baby will just stop kicking. One time, bf had his hands on my belly for 15 min and baby didn't move and when he took his hand away, I felt the kicks! And asked the bf to put his hand there again, and baby stopped. Walau, made me look like I was lying and making it up? Hahaha. Why ah?!?!

It is a wonderful feeling when you finally feel your baby kick!!! To feel your baby move in your belly is such an amazing feeling. It is so unbelievable?! Everytime baby kicks, I feel super happy because it means he is alive and kicking hahaha! When he doesn't move, I feel worried though.... :/ but doc said it's normal! A lot of first time mothers worry as much as I do. Oh man, I just want to carry him and kiss him sooo bad. In 4 months time I will!!! :) 

It's a reminder for me to be more careful too. Sometimes I forget I'm pregnant and attempt to carry really heavy stuff or shift furniture around. Especially the past week when I was busy with the new place! Tried to move a sofa and got scolded. I don't really like asking people for help but I guess this is period I should!! And I should enjoy it too hehe. 

Can't wait for the day I manage to capture his kicks on video. I've seen some people post videos of their belly moving and it's super cool!
