Chinese (ok, Chinese Singaporeans, at least), believe that the first trimester of a pregnancy is very crucial, and for this reason, superstitions forbid them from announcing the good news of a pregnancy to outsiders. (NO, I am NOT the one pregnant again!)
So, I confirmed with my mum today, that yes, my sis is about three months pregnant already, and it marks her third child! Wowee man! She's going through quite a bout of morning sickness, the poor girl, and I'd already sent back alot of my maternity clothes and infant clothes/stuff the previous time my ex-colleague went back to Singapore.
That's her above in 2004, heavily pregnant with her first child, Simon, with cauliflower nose to boot!

She has not scanned the gender yet, but boy or girl, I'm going to be a Yi Yi to yet another cutie come mid-May - I just can't wait, and Rosabelle will no longer be the chili padi (the smallest) amongst her cousins!
Bliss...
