Happened to be at client's place who was having the fire drill! Morning vertical challenge... I thought it should be manageable since I am still not feeling so heavy or big (23rd week of pregnancy; 34" waist), I need some walks to strength myself, the fire warden had seen me at the premise so as a professional staff, I should complied.
Msg my colleagues just in case they are reaching the building. My manager called me immediately and asked me to skip this. But I thought no choice already, I am already making my way down.
No kidding, half way through my legs were already wobbly. And I held tight to the railings because I am worried of missing a step and *proof*. I looked at the participants in front of me, all big sized angmohs. I thought, not bad, even if I fell, they should be able to cushion me.
So viola! I made it to Level 1, with jelly legs!
Walking 40 levels of stairs are really no easy feat. Thank god I am in flats. OMG. My legs are shaking even til lunch.
I thought my lil baby is pretty fortunate, following mummy to meetings, client's places and now fire drill. Life experiences already gained in womb. heh.
Post-note to self: my legs refused to recover, protesting in silent for my misjudgment. Blah! I have trouble walking normally, not to mention slopes, stairs, kerb! Every steps must think through. Most of the time I gave up and ask my hubby to do (more things than normal).
It becomes so frustrating and I am starting to believe I can never recover. I went tcm for medicinal rub and ba guan in the morning (helps for a while). I even woke up from naps due to pain on my thigh. had just pop two paracetamol pills and hope for the best. How to go to work like that?!?
To self, don't do 40 levels of stairs again pls.
