So what is in a typical bed-rest day?
My mom comes with a glass of warm goat milk mixed with brown rice powder at 7am before she heads to work. That gives me a good start for the day and I head back to sleep until my alarm rings at 930am. Being a natural lazy-bone, I continue to snooze in bed until 1030am before heading out for a full glass of water to down my multi-vitamins. Multi-vitamins must be taken at least 2hrs after any meal with calcium.
I will be back in my comfy bed to play with my phone - reading forum updates, facebook and the daily news snippets on the development of my beanie. Tummy will growl at 12pm and it is time for lunch. Back to lazing in bed for the afternoon and occasionally, I will be surfing the net if the weather is cool. Else I will be hiding in air-con comfort as I watch the repeated serials on TV. Dinner is at 630pm and it is TV time again lying on the hall sofa as I catch up on current TV serials and chit-chat with my hubby. Bathtime is typically at 10pm and I am back to hiding in air-con comfort as I prepare for bed and catch-up with different groups of friends via whatapps. By 1230am, I will be counting sheeps in my dreams and the routine re-starts.
At times, my day passes faster with my gynae visits and TCM doctor review. Other than those limited outings, my days have been so for the last 3 months. This is the life of a couch potato tai-tai... Hahahaha! Fortunately, my parents stay with me and help me with all the housework, allowing me to fully rest and stabilise the pregnancy. That explains why I could keep my nails for this long! But this will end soon as I will be heading back to work!
