I've been @ home this whole week. Yup, my gynae gave me a week's of medical leave due to blood spottings. Told me to really take it easy and REST! No physical activity! and that includes, climbing stairs, lifting heavy things, etc. Well, ain't all that part of my daily work? Gosh... must think of some ways to aviod all those huh... It was kinda scary at first when i saw the BLOOD, i mean its like when u menstruate u know... luckily doc didnt see anything harmful and the baby is fine (Thank Goodness) So this whole week been really a fruitful week for me, read a lot, watch TV - I'm hooked to Hallmark's The Nanny!!!, tried not to do too many housework as hubby 'volunteered' for them. He's excited too you know, my hubby, although he manages to stay calm and composed throughout the time. I love it when he put his hands on my tummy at night.. heh:)

Eventhough the GP told me that i was about 7 weeks pregnant, but when i checked with my gynae, he told me that I was about 6weeks. Whatever it is, I want to be healthy. Must eat healthily now. cannot skip meals. Had my first craving - banana fritters! Ask my sweet hubby to but bananas and i made really sweet banana fritters last nite and ate them while watching CSI. i still have the leftover batter in my fridge...
