22 weeks. Believe it or not, this was my first strength training session after having a horrible first trimester all the way til about 4 months.

I started with light weights and modified according to my pregnancy. Not trying to challenge myself to push harder but just wanna work certain muscle groups to have a smooth pregnancy and delivery later. Staying active is the most important thing for me!

Had a nice @barebells.malaysia @functionalfood_club protein bar after. 🧡

Time to spill the tea.

We are 21 weeks pregnant! The 2nd and 3rd month felt like the longest period of my life because all I saw was the toilet bowl and the bed. Thank goodness the first trimester is done and dusted. I also got my first vaccine around 14 weeks and now I’m fully vaccinated. 🧡

Excited to share our happiness with you. I feel like I’ve kept this secret for way too long for some reason 😆.

Alhamdulillah baby is doing good and I can’t wait to see @fedrighifrancesco handle dirty diapers and milk spew in a few months. But for now, I’m gonna enjoy cooking this bun in the oven. And eat some too. I’ve slowed down on my usual workouts and resorting to long walks instead so if you’re not seeing some new workout videos from me, well now ya know! Much love from us.

แก๊งค์เพื่อนๆมารอเจอเจ้าเด่กแล้วนะคะ🍰🍧💗🧸✨ finally, we reached 2nd trimester of pregnancy can't wait to see my 🐱 or 🦁✨☺️

本月初，一項新法律在美國德州生效，禁止懷孕六週後進行人工流產，成為先進國家中最嚴格的墮胎法之一。反觀世界第二大羅馬天主教國，墨西哥最高法院週二裁定，懲罰墮胎違憲，成為墨西哥女性健康與人權倡導者的重大勝利。
