Isabelle is 3 July 13, 2008
Posted by isabellekry in Day-to-day drama: home.trackback
Apart from being really busy at work for the past few months (blame crazy deadlines & manpower shortage), I experienced all-day all-night “morning” sickness from end-Mar to early-Jun. This time around it’s worse than the one I had when I carried Isabelle back in 2004. To make matter even worse there were a few horrible weeks during this period when I couldn’t function at work or at home.
Stress at work + hormonal imbalances + 24-hour morning sickness = emotional roller coaster
When Isabelle turned 3 in April 2008
She can sing “Happy Birthday” perfectly now
But I’m glad it’s all behind me now. Work’s work, it’s never done. My team and I have done our best to deliver on time.
As for Isabelle, she’s looking forward to the arrival of her brother this November. She cuddles mommy’s tummy every morning and every night, gently kissing and greeting baby, telling him to “be a good boy”.
Last week daddy and I asked her “What is brother’s name?”
Isabelle: ”Brother’s name is Baby!”
Daddy & mommy: Then what is baby’s (your) name?
Isabelle: I’m not baby. I’m big girl already. I’m jie jie.
We haven’t decided on a name yet. We’ve talked about naming him “Isaac”, but I’m keeping my options open. Any suggestions? Any boy names starting with “I”?
Good Morning Isabelle,
Sorry to hear about your troubles with M/S. I started a blog last month to begin gathering info on M/S to provide expecting mothers with a one stop shop so to speak. Check it out, I hope it helps get your life back. Let me know if it helped or what I can do to do a better job.
