8 months mark
Alyssa: Here I am at 32 weeks / 8 months pregnant. With only another 5 weeks to go before I’m considered full term (although my due date of 8 July is still 8 weeks away), it feels like the home stretch is etching closer. The third trimester has been the most uncomfortable for me compared to the past 6 months of pregnancy. I feel like I haven’t had a decent night’s sleep for ages thanks to the constant trips to the loo, the spontaneous leg cramps at the early hours of the morning that makes me literally jump out of bed howling in pain and the nightly nasal congestion which makes breathing difficult (Yung now accuses me of snoring!). I did give Yung the option to sleep in a separate bed so that at least one of us gets a decent night’s rest but Yung thought it was only fair to share the pregnancy experience – good and bad! Besides, he thinks it would be good practice for when the baby arrives as by then, neither of us will experience uninterrupted sleep for a long while.

Wow its getting so close... so sad I'm not there. You are looking great! So exciting! Can't wait to meet the latest addition. There's just nothing like a firstborn!
Its great to hear that besides the loo trips, leg cramps, and nightly nasal congestion that you are experiencing, that you are doing well (and looking well as a matter of fact). We are also very eager to welcome the little one, the one who will no doubt bring the greatest joy into your lives. Yung, if you ever get the chance to get your hands on some ear plugs, they can be really be your best friend.
Take care and all. lastly, dont forget the tennis ball.
