MiniSoh's Birth Story

Hello ! Pretty sure a lot of you want to know how did the process of birthing him went heh . One of the best thing other than the little bundle of joy you see , is getting to know the birth story ! At least that's how I feel when I follow mummies on IG . Nuff' said ! Here we go . Initially , I really wanted him to be out before 20th March because I wanted a Pisces baby rather than a Aries one , as baby's daddy and I are the remaining 2 fire signs . So imagine how bad shit is gonna turn out if we all blow up amirite . However , clearly he felt like it wasn't time yet . So I accepted the fact and let him decide what was best for him ; but me being me , I still told him to not come on the weekends as I wanted to spend one last weekend before being a mum and of course , time with the husband (ended up sleeping all weekend and he was on his game all the time so hahaha that's our quality time) . So , for 21/3 and 22/3 , my body clock was screwed right over . I litera...

Hospital of Choice and What I Packed

Being a first time mum and having little to no one I could consult through this pregnancy, I relied a lot on Google, pregnancy apps, other pregnant mummies who share their experience on IG and my own mother for my doubts and enquiries so this is what I came up with along with a simple checklist given by NUH, where I will be welcoming baby R. First off, Why NUH? I was initially with KKH during my first half of my pregnancy but some may know, the service provided there was terrible. In fact, terrible is an understatement.

I transferred to NUH during my second trimester and so far, the service there has been really good. Why I don't see a point in delivering in a private hospital is because, despite the fact that you can choose your gynaecologist and better ultrasound photos...

THE Wedding

⚠️Lengthy post up ahead⚠️ Honestly not sure if I should even call what I had a wedding or just a solemnization , but let's just go with wedding . Why I choose to write this , is because I wanna commemorate the whole wedding process here and also I am 19 and honestly the first to go through this new phrase compared to all my friends ; also came across a Zula post on why people regretted spending large sums of money on the wedding and felt that I could relate alot to it . I hope this serves as good advice for those who are contemplating to have an extravagant wedding or a small scale one . I will also be sharing some sensitive details as to WHY our wedding was planned as it is but I will not go too deep into details . To begin with My story goes slightly different because when my husband and I were planning this , I was already (still am) pregnant . We are also still considered studying as I was doing traineeship and he just started his part time diploma too so you ...
