Buntis 03: It happened Twice :-(

Twice!!! And it ain't no good.

1. Put to bed rest twice! : I'm on my 2nd week now. So far, so good. The pain in my lower back has lessen and happens very seldom now since Feb. 1. I still need much rest and sleep during day time to avoid those pain on my hips.

2. Lost a Sophie Kinsella book, twice!: The first one was "Shopaholic Ties the Knot. And now, it's Shopaholic & Baby. Oh! this pregnancy is making me more and more "ulyanin". Sometimes, I don't remember what happened or where I put my stuff. It's like "memory gap". I do remember events but it's like a puzzle with the missing piece and all I can tell my husband is "Sorry, I can't remember." According to WTE (What To Expect), it is called Pregnancy Brain.

Pregnancy Brain — What It Is

Pregnancy-induced brain fog, a true (and truly frustrating) hallmark of pregnancy. You may forget appointments, what you just walked into the store for, where you left your purse, whether you turned off the stove — and maybe, your phone number.

Pregnancy Brain — What Causes It

As usual in pregnancy, it's just your pregnancy hormones having some fun, this time at the expense of your memory. And believe it or not, your brain-cell volume actually decreases during the third trimester of pregnancy (which could explain why you can't remember what you just read about in that last paragraph). Not to worry, your brain will plump back up a few months after delivery.

Pregnancy Brain — What You Need to Know

First of all, pregnancy forgetfulness is completely normal — and extremely common. It's also temporary — you'll have total recall again long before you start to have your "senior moments." And try not to be too hard on yourself, as stress will only cloud your pregnancy brain even more.

Because of this pregnancy brain, I lost this book -->
I don't want to buy a new book...for now. But I'm almost half way and excited to find out more about the story. Hay! Hopefully, I can find a way to finish this.

I don't want to start this one...because "Shopaholic & Baby" is sort of a prelude to "Mini Shopaholic". Aaarrrggghhh!!! I need to finish Shopaholic & Baby first.

For now, I have to get my eyes busy watching TV, read WTF book, do some net surfing and etc...just to kill time and keep my sanity in place.
