Week 36 : Big transformation for me

 18th July - Fri , husband's birthday  - first day of week 36 



Happy birthday to Wei Sheng and my mother in law. I purposely bought 4 different cake because Iknow my dear daughter would love to blow the candle! hahaahah . 

Even for her upcoming birthday in Aug, i have already bought nice candle for her birthday cake blowing session! 




19th July - Sat -

1. Closing my final property deal before holiday. 

Surprising I still manage to try as usual for the 40 mins long journey. I am so wonderful! but then i was also completely drained at the end of the day for staying outdoor the whole day. 


But at week 36 day 2, i still feel that I am active and able to go anywhere i want. It was only few days later....on Tues...afer seeing doctor, when i feel the fake contraction, then I’ve grown to like the sense of being immobile because of the increasing belly weight. 

2. Going to Elmina 

As usual, every weekend, WS will go to Elmina to check out on the latest progress of the new house. and he will be frustrated when things get delay. 




Bringing the litte one to the new playground in our new house neighbourhood. 




Mon -  Going for pubic hair removal _ brazilian Wax 




This is my first time during Brazilian Wax on the pubic area.  Surprisingly, it was not as pain as I expected. It gets pain for a short few seconds the moment when the lady tear the tape. I was having cold sweat despite the aircond was a 22c.   but it was fine after few second. So if you wanna try brazilian wax before labour, It is safe and not as pain as what you expected. 



During my final days of pregnancy...I dont really fancy going out to eat. It feels so troublesome to get in and out of the car. also I like to stay immobile. and my home is a safe place for me, because I can go to bathroom whenever I want. 

And also for the bumpy car rides feel lately — especially when going over a hump or when the car brakes to  slow down or stop.  It’s really uncomfortable for my belly.



Tues-  22/7 - Probably the last prenatal appointmen before I give birth. 

I was so happy that day because my husband was with me all the time during prenatal checkup. 

Sonographer said that my baby was around 2.7kg ady!








First time of having first fake contraction?  

Dinner cook at home



Wed 23/7 - Went to Sunway Medical Center with my parents 






Wed -23/7 - my 36 weeks belly - quite huge (and heavy)





In summary, week 36 marks the huge transformation for my body. 


At 36 weeks and 2 days, I still felt energetic and could move around freely as I pleased.

But just a few days later — on Tuesday, after seeing the doctor — I started experiencing false contractions. That’s when I began to appreciate the stillness and found comfort in staying immobile, as the growing weight of my belly made movement more difficult.

then as time tickles, my belly is growing heavier. 

 bumpy car rides is uncomfortable for my belly— especially when going over a hump or when the car brakes to  slow down or stop.  


In short week 36 is a turning point where i turned from 


ACTIVE ➤➤➤ STILL 



It's not comfortable to experience with. But I glad that i get to experience it because it shows that my baby (foetus) is growing healthily and putting on weight as usual. Also, I don get to experience this during my first pregnancy because I have given birth at week 35. So i am glad that I get to grow my belly up to...perhaps week 38?  


Oh yea, and from day 2 onwards. I can feel the strength of my baby kicking or punching in my belly even when I was walking. Previously i only felt those movement when i sit still.  or when I stand still. 

Week 36 : ❤️the great things that happen to me recently

 Actually I  am quite grateful for all the great things that happen on me each and everyday. But recently. these 2 were my top 2 highlight. 



1. My dad has considered fully recovered from Cancer! 我希望他老人家可以健健康康,开开心心的长命百岁, 而不是生病的长命百岁。 





2. For top 2 great news No. 2...I don't think most of you can relate to it.  

Some context before I tell the good news. 
Basically , it means the official account of a buddhist organisation in Malaysia. I am the one who created the instagram account for YBAM KL. And Too bad, i forget the password already. 

Hence, it is difficult to pass the instagram account to the next successor for social media managing. 



Normally for instagram account, if we forget password, then we can click 'Forget Password" to reset a new one. but the instagram account which tie to my phone didnt receive any notification to reset password. So that's how the challenge begin. 

so just when I thought the chance to retrieve the password is not working. Every cloud has a silver lining. Turned out. Zhi Wah...  after cracking his brain.... on countless different way. They manage to find the password finally! 

This is such a great news for me! 


🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
On top of that, there's always something that keep me happy everyday.  

I am always filled with joy whenever i feel the punches, kicks, flutter of my dear baby in the belly. It keeps my heart full and reminds me to be more disipline, dont get distract and focus on what am Idoing. 

Because i want to be a good role model to my children. 
So bearing 2nd child really give me a new definition of life. LIke...my life suddenly is so meaningful.

Week 34 of Pregnancy




 Week 33  


Slowly packing for hospital bag. Went to buy the first ever set of clothes for my baby boy. THis would be his clothes when discharge from hospital.  



Just because i am now in my third trimester, i am still working. Including maintenance during the weekend. 



Take out all the new born related stuff from storage space.  THings like new born clothes, breast pump set,  breast milk bag are all taken out. 



On TUes..i think..

My hair is too long. and it's very hot for me, I cant tolerate it anymore. I went to get a haircut from belwo shoulder length to the length below (slightly same level with shoulder). I think it more than 3 inch cut. 




Today , it is midnight 2.26am 
As I am writing to archive this lovely space here. I am feeling tired. but not sleepy. 
I guess because i have drunk milk tea in the evening, that cause me able to sleep for long duration despite of the sleepiness. 


Also , i feel irregular mild sharp pain at my pelvic bone. Curious, I woke up to google the reason why. 
Here's why 

========== ❤❤❤❤❤ ==========

Yes, it can be normal for a pregnant woman to feel pain or pressure near the tips of the pelvic bone when the fetus shifts position, especially in the third trimester. Here's why:

💡 Possible Reasons for Pelvic Bone Pain:

  1. Fetal Pressure: When the baby moves into a certain position (especially head-down or "engaged" in late pregnancy), the head or limbs can press against the pelvic bones.

  • Engagement Pain: As the baby "drops" lower into the pelvis (lightening), the pressure on bones, muscles, and nerves increases.

  • Nerve Compression: Sometimes, a baby’s position can press on nearby nerves (e.g., the sciatic nerve), leading to sharp or radiating pain.


  • ✅ When it's usually normal:

    • Pain is brief, position-dependent, and goes away with movement or rest.

    • It feels like a deep ache or sharp jab, especially when baby moves or kicks low.

    ❗When to seek medical attention:

    • Severe or constant pain.

    • Bleeding, unusual discharge, or contractions.

    • Pain with fever or burning sensation when urinating.

  • ========== ❤❤❤❤❤ ==========



    QUESTION 2  : is it normal that sometimes the belly hard like egg shell during the third trimester?


    es, it’s very normal for your belly to feel hard like an eggshell at times during the third trimester — especially as you get closer to your due date. This is usually caused by:


    ✅ 1. Braxton Hicks Contractions (“Practice Contractions”)

    • What they feel like: Your belly suddenly becomes very firm or tight, then relaxes after a while.

    • Common in 3rd trimester (sometimes even from 2nd).

    • They are irregular, usually not painful, and go away with rest, hydration, or position change.

    Signs it's Braxton Hicks:

    FeatureBraxton Hicks
    Duration~30 seconds to 2 minutes
    PatternIrregular, doesn’t get stronger over time
    Pain levelMild or just uncomfortable
    TriggerOften after activity, full bladder, dehydration
    ReliefBetter with rest, water, or changing position



    ❗When to Be Concerned:

    You should contact your doctor or midwife if the hard belly comes with:

    • Regular, painful contractions (could be early labor).

    • Severe pain, especially if it's sudden.

    • Bleeding or fluid leaking.

    • Decreased fetal movement.

    • Fever, dizziness, or unusual symptoms.


    💡 Tips to Ease Discomfort:

    • Drink plenty of water (dehydration triggers Braxton Hicks).

    • Change positions — lie down if standing, or walk if lying.

    • Take slow, deep breaths.

    • Try a warm shower to relax your belly muscles.


    In summary:
    A hard belly like an “eggshell” now and then is normal and often just Braxton Hicks or baby pressing out. But if it’s painful, regular, or feels off, it’s always okay to call your healthcare provider to be sure.
