It all started when Tru had a bit of the sniffles a while back. He had all this mucus streaming down his nose non-stop all day and I had to keep running back and forth to get more tissue, wipe his nose, throw it away, get a fresh piece, and then another and another.

The man and I were sitting around talking about our childhoods last week. I don’t remember how the conversation started… It may have been along the lines of what kind of a childhood we thought Renee would have and what kind of parents we would be. I mean, you suddenly (ok, maybe not suddenly but »

Getting a positive test result at the end of the year is one of the psychologically traumatic experiences I have ever been through.
After the mental high-fives and back-slapping, I was brought back to reality by a well-meaning friend who explained the difference between ‘pregnant’ and ‘positive test result’.
Okay… so now I gotta wait till 6 »

I suppose there’s just no escaping some pregnancy bleahs…
I had a really terrific 1st trimester, and during those first few months, I was so gleeful that I was free from morning sickness and many other associated discomforts of pregnancy. In fact, almost all the articles and books I read said that the 2nd trimester would be a wonderful »

With a photo like this, you’d think I’m going to write a motivational piece on how life is like riding a bike and something about getting up when we fall, which is remotely related to how winners are those who never quit. Stuff like that.

We were at Ikea last month and after our meal, I brought Renee to the children’s playground which was right smack in the middle of their cafeteria.
It was a lot of fun even for me the adults minding their kids. A little like visiting Discovery Centre because the walls had fun puzzles you could push, »

I had a terribly hard time keeping my breakfast down this morning.
No, it wasn’t because of first trimester nausea. Rather it was due to some nauseating comments on Facebook in response to a link that I posted. Now, simply fuming internally throughout the entire MRT journey and walk to the office wouldn’t do anybody any »

We were just done with our usual weekend brunch at the airport when they saw this gazebo-like structure with lots of flowers and made the husband push them there in the luggage trolley. It’s this thing they do where they both sit on the ledge of the trolley with their legs dangling out and they »

After our failure to get Yi Lin pregnant for the first try in IVF, we were a little “quieter” in going for our second try. The excitement had lost a little of its lustre, I guess. And we also kinda figured out that if anyone was really, really, REALLY interested in our journey towards parenthood, »
