  • wish it was still wednesday:) Post 9

    I really dont know what to write today!
    It was a long rainy cold day.. I woke up with a heavy head..and kept Babushka home..I really didn’t feel like going out in the rain..even in a cab.Luckily,I had spoken to her teacher yesterday and told her,that Babushka might miss a few sessions,if I wasn’t well.And she said,not to worry.Still I feel guilty..I know its just playschool.. and she is not missing anything except fun time with her friends.. but still..Aah motherhood and guilt go hand in hand..

    Anyway,all day today,we I just rested on the couch.. and Baushka read books, chattered non-stop,watched more than enough TV.Then in the afternoon,I got up and we baked cookies..and then I was sitting down tired and she came and gave me a hug and said,”Come on,cheer up,now..:)” hehee…

    Before I end this random post.. I would like to say,sorry to all you sweeties,Sorry that I am not regular on your blogs and also not prompt about approving comments..I promise,I will be over on your blogs..really soon.. I promise..till then,Thank you for not giving up on me!
    Love and hugs to everyone!

  • Tired-Post 7

    I am so tired today..Had a long day yesterday- 3 hours at the hospital-I was seeing my OB and Endocrinologist both..and ended up seeing the diabetes instructor too..hence the three hours. I didn’t sleep too well last night and then today was school day. A friend of mine is between jobs and goes driving with me,on Tuesdays..so,SD gets a ride with her husband and I do a bit of grocery,between school runs.
    That way,I get enough driving done,park in busy places and also,drive in school zones.
    Today,being my first day of monitored eating,sugar monitoring and Insulin taking,has left me completely drained.
    Suprisingly,this time I was expecting GD(gestational diabetes) and so,not totally bummed by it..actually,its just like a side-effect of pregnancy,this time.
    And Insulin shots are quite alright too 🙂 no worries.

    Oh and I finally have a new date for my driving test- June 23rd.. Its ironic,last month,when I booked my test,SD had asked me to book a date in June and I didn’t want to do that,since,it was going to be too close to my due-date.. but now I ended up postponing the test !! LOL!I guess its OK-all the extra driving is doing loads for my confidence!
    More later.. too tired 😦

  • Babushka wisdom on Mummy’s tummies- Post 6

    See,I told you,there is loads more where the first dose came from 🙂
    Yesterday,when I was dressing up Babushka after her bath, she pointed at slits on her chest(koff,koff) and asked me,”Ohh look mommy,what is this?” I said.. ,”umm its a part of your chest”. She looks at me and I am pretty sure I saw her roll her eyes and says.. “No no mommy,its circles..its tummy circles from where babies get their milk” …As for my reaction… open mouthed breathing!
    And if you think that is funny… wait till you read this.

    Yesterday,we went window-shopping for baby gear and got a bounty bag from one of the stores. Naturally,Babushka got first dibs on it..this morning,when I was making breakfast, she was going through the bounty bag and asking me what each thing was,sorting,what she could keep,blah blah. Out comes a packet of breast-pads. And she asked,”Whats this Mommy?” I said, “ohh its for big mummies to use- not for didis or babies”. She turned it this way and that and then,announced..”Ohh I know what this is ..its tummy tissue..when your tummy is dripping,after baby has milk,you can use this”..I really don’t know what happened after that..because I am pretty sure,I fainted trying to drown myself in my tea!

    And now,I am just going to go hide the bounty bag!
