… can be quite a daunting task, but one that needs to be done. Here are some pregnancy announcement ideas to share. Peter and I wanted to have it announced as subtly as possible with a nice photo… well otherwise, we could just update our Facebook Status and go “We’re pregnant”. Here are some photos the amateur in me took, edited and considered for posting on Facebook… but most didn’t quite make the cut except for one. Here are some pregnancy…
View PostBelieve me. It was a pain starting out searching for Baby Carriers. We decided not to choose between Baby Carriers & Strollers but to just get both. I will share a review of the Pognae Baby Carrier that we eventually chose out of the 3 brands we shortlisted – Beco, Mandula and Pognae.
View PostWe were real excited to meet Dr Tham. It’s time for Week 16 pregnancy update and also, time to tell the gender of Baby Bean.

The muscle strains of pregnancy are very real and can be more than just a nuisance. I am now experiencing backaches, aches below my belly and the occasional calf strains due to calf cramps at night. :(
View PostMy inspiration for #ProjectNursery today revolves around brown, green and white. I call it a Quiet Forest Theme for a baby boy. It is actually pretty gender neutral though. I work around the “BROWNISH” based themes alot because my room has brown curtains and a brown cabinet. So my hands are tied that way. Ok what we have featured today is: 1) White Forest Tree Decals on a Brown Wall 2) Baby Fawn Bedding 3) Baby Fawn Canvas Wall Art…

It is one of the best times in your life to get yourself a guidebook (or two!) to guide you along the way. Here’s a recommended pregnancy book to check out. After my awesome colleague knew I was preggars, she went out immediately and got me a recommended pregnancy book that she felt helped her a lot during her pregnancy. The book…
View PostPregnant as I am, but I know I need to get my ass up and start exercising. I checked out some prenatal exercises that I could participate in and decided on trying out Prenatal Pilates. I have fitness goals like increasing my metabolism, flexibility and strength that I want to achieve but haven’t been able to because I didn’t know where I could go or do besides swimming.
