More than halfway there!

I am now officially halfway through my pregnancy! Was down with cough and cold for 5 days. Spent the past few days in bed, not daring to take any medication. However, I did sneak 2 small tsp of Woods Peppermint Cough Syrup. Was only a temporary relief. Now am just sticking to ginger, honey and plenty of rest.
Am still throwing up now and then. Looks like nausea will be staying throughout the pregnancy, just hope that it isn't too severe. Chinese New Year is just round the corner and will be heading to Penang next weekend for 2 days. Managed to get really good deal with Fireflyz and am glad that I won't be stuck in traffic for 5 hours getting there.
My blood sugar was a bit high during my last check up so I better stay off all those yummy new year cookies and goodies. Will set myself a quota.
We are currently on a new dinner arrangement, alternate days (Mon, Wed & Fri) at in-laws and other days with my aunt. Have been eating well and steadily gaining weight. To date I have gained about 5 kgs which is about right.
Have also been keeping busy with lots of baby shopping. Most things bought already, only left cot mobile, baby intercom and high chair (for much later). There has been lots of warehouse sales all over PJ and managed to get pretty good bargains and savings. Soon I can just kick back relax and organise all the baby stuff. Gee...it's nice not working, wonder if I will ever get back into the swing of things??
Back starting to feel tired and sore from weight gain. Need to strengthen all those bones and muscles. My eyesight (esp my right eye) astigmatism has deteriorated slightly. Pray everything back to normal after baby...
