Update
I had just finished my Sausage
Mc Muffin with egg. It's 6 am in the morning and I had been awake
since 3. It's called animalistic maternal instinct. Apparently it
is something that happens to preggies to guard against nocturnal
predators in the wild. And while it doesn't make sense in today's
world, it kinda does for me. :P Everything makes sense these days.
I remember training alot less for my concerts. Yet, for this
pregnancy, I trained up to 5 days a week. Gym 3 times a week and
night swims whenever. My theory is that I need to be strong to
deliver. I need to be a strong mother (as usual that's just my
point of view). And somehow, I had convinced myself that it makes
complete sense. The other day I saw an Indian instructor looking at
me with a gaping mouth. I'm not sure what she was thinking. Then
again, I'm pretty sure she didn't know what I was thinking,
waddling around a gym with my humongous belly, walking very slowly
on the treadmill. Whenever someone asks how I do it, I tell them,
"Actually I'm freaking tired. Haha." With these disruptive sleep
patterns and a weight gain of 12 kg, I don't really want to be at a
bloody gym! As I am approaching the final leg of this pregnancy, I
know I can't really keep up with the increasing load. I'm beginning
to skip gym here and there, taking naps and long baths instead.
These days, I'm happy folding little onesies and smelling the
ridiculously comforting baby smell that is already on the clothes
(these manufacturers are so bloody clever, infusing their products
some magical milk scent!). My mobility has been halved, my legs are
swollen and itchy and I can't sit without looking somewhat vulgar.
I forget appointments, leave my keys at a coffeeshop and drive like
a granny. But yes I am super excited. I await
with strong open arms.

我刚刚吃了香肠麦满分汉堡和鸡蛋。
现在是早晨六点,三点钟的时候我就醒了。这是动物的母性本能吧。其实这种情形原本是发生在怀孕的动物妈妈中,它们为了防御野外夜间活动的食肉动物而睡得很少。尽管这种现象在当代社会已经讲不通,但在我身上确实应验了。:P 最近每件事情都显得自有道理。记得准备演唱会的训练也没现在这么多。可在怀孕期间,我每周有五天都去训练。其中每周去健身房三次,晚间有空就去游泳。我的想法是,我要变的很强壮才能生小孩,我需要成为一名强大的母亲(照例这只是我个人的观点)。而在某种程度上,我已经让自己相信,这是非常有道理的。一天我看见一位印度教练张大嘴巴看着我。我不太清楚她当时在想什么。而且我很确定她也不清楚我的想法,为什么要挺着巨大的肚子在健身房里晃来晃去,在跑步机上慢慢地走。每次别人问及我是如何做到的,我都会告诉他们:“其实我是非常累的,哈哈。”我的睡眠不规律,还增了12公斤,我可真不想去什么健身房!现在我已到了孕期的最后阶段,我觉得难以承受日渐增长的负荷。所以我开始减少健身的次数,取而代之抽时间小睡一会儿,或者多泡一会澡。这几天,我在开心地整理婴儿服的时候,会闻到衣服上已经有北鼻的气味,那个味道很舒服。(现在做婴儿服装的人都太聪明了,他们在衣服上注入神奇的奶香!)现在我的灵活性减半,腿都肿了起来,觉得很痒,坐姿看起来也有些难看。我会忘记约会,会把钥匙忘在咖啡店里,开起车来像老奶奶那样笨拙。但此刻我超兴奋,让我张开强健的双臂拭目以待吧。
