Twiddling my thumbs

I am playing the waiting game…

At my last appointment on Saturday, Doc S revealed that I had dilated 2cm but it’s not really an indication of how early Adik will arrive.. Could be tomorrow, could be next week.. Of course, I didn’t let that stop me from blagging a seafood dinner courtesy of my dad that night hehehe.. Fish, crabs, prawns, the whole works..

I went to work yesterday, filled out the leave forms and took the rest of the week off to wait it out.. Better to be bored at home than go through the uncertainty of who’s gonna send me to the hospital and if we’ll get there soon enough if labour starts.. I really don’t want to inconvenience anyone, especially as my immediate superiors have been pretty nice about everything..

The same cannot be said about the higher-up who has been quite clueless and inconsiderate.. I casually mentioned to his secretary about my early leave.. I think she passed on the message and now he’s scrambling as there was a management meeting this morning and I got a missed call from an office number on my personal (repeat, personal!!) line.. I know it’s not from the people in my department or my friends as they have promised to text first and will only call if I gave ‘em the greenlight.. If it was him, serves him right as he has ‘mengeram’ that pet project of his all this time and only moves his ass when he has a status report due… Which means we are usually given 2 days to make ourselves available for a meeting, brainstorm and come up with minutes and action plans for him to take into the meeting and mengeram further..

*tarik nafas*

Enough bitching about work…

Back to the waiting game.. Let’s see if this lil kiddo decides to make a grand entrance on Thursday or has to be coaxed out sometime next week..

Update then..!
