Happy Birthday, Daddy!

We're on 3rd trimester!

Thank you Lord and we are on our last trimester! We just turned 28 weeks last Saturday and guess what?  We've seen our Baby Eggnog in our 4D ultrasound.  I wanna cry while looking at him/her at the monitor.  I know the gender already, however since hubby doesn't want to know, I just support him by not telling him.  LOL 

By the way, let me share with you our experience at World Of My Baby.  The service was superb!   Staff and sonologist were very accommodating.  Though it's kinda out of way, because they are located in Ortigas (and we're from Makati/Bulacan), specifically at The Podium, but everything was worth it.  Let me share you one of our Baby Eggnog's photos. ☻

Isn't he/she the cutest?  Everybody in the house can't get enough of this cute photo!  Baby got the cheeks and nose from daddy!

4-5 months preggy experience

We had our check-up last July 3, 2014 and also had CAS (Congenital Anomaly Scan) on that day.  I was happy seeing our little one on the monitor but disappointed on the other hand.  Disappointed because the OB-Sonologist was not even telling what he had seen, he didn't even talk while performing the procedure.  What made me nervous was when he focused on our baby's heart for a while.  I was scared that there was a problem.  Gladly after seeing the result of the CAS, there was nothing written in the remarks that I should worry about.

Baby was in breech position when we had our ultrasound that's why we were not able to know the gender.  For me, as long as our baby is normal and healthy, I cannot ask for more. ☺

By the way, the night of the same day, I felt his/her very first kicks. This was the most wonderful feeling in the world!  I swear!  Now that our baby kicks or moves often, I can't help but smile everytime I feel it. 

Covering the 3 months absence

Oh hello there!  Yes I know, I've been inactive for about 3 months or so? 

Just to cover those 3 months, let me share to you what happened on my pregnancy while I was away.  Everything was going smoothly not until I got so stressed at work.  I had spotting on my 8th week though it only occurred once *Thank God*.  I was advised by my OB to bed rest for a week, take Isoxilan and try to relax.  Thank you to my dear husband who took care of me.

During my bed rest, that was the time I hated the most because I can't left my work behind.  I mean, how can you relax if you know that you have pending work in the office?  Sadly to say, yes I had to work at home because I need to help my staff.  This was also when I experienced vomiting because of pregnancy.  This lasted for 2 weeks - 1 month I guess.

As mentioned on my previous post, I need to undergo lab tests.  Done with the tests and was diagnosed with GDM (Gestational Diabetes Mellitus), diabetes that occurs during pregnancy.  I was actually expecting it because it runs in our blood.  I have to check my sugar level everyday and make sure that before breakfast, my sugar level is not over 90 and not over 140 every meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner).

7 weeks pregnant with 141bpm

Hello there!  Had our check-up last Saturday and I'm glad to say that our little boo's heart is pumping at 141bpm.  I wanna cry!!!  Husband cannot hide his excitement and requesting me to kiss him on lips in front of the people in the hospital.  Sorry, dear I can't do that! 

We are 7 weeks and 2 days today and next check-up will be in May for blood tests.  :) 

BFP it is!

Hello readers!  It's been a while.

A cuantos estamos? (What date is today?)  Oh! It's March 26, 2014 already and AF is not appearing yet and I think it will be off for 9 months!  Yes, you read it right!  Yesterday morning, I took the PT because I was expecting my AF to come last Sunday.  Guess what?  It has a faint line on my PT! Yey! :)  It was 4am then and woke-up Edward to ask him if he can also see the faint line and he said, YES!  Ohemgeee!  Is this true?  :)  I texted my OB and she told me not to take a pregnancy again and report to her next week for ultrasound. 

As makulit in nature, I did not follow her and took one.  And to my surprise, darn it's negative! No sign of faint positive at all!  I was down. :( I called my husband and he was not convinced that it is negative. To comfort me, he thought that it might be because I drunk a lot of water yesterday and my urine is no longer concentrated that's why it came out negative.

I can't wait 'til this morning to have the test again and I am glad to say that it's again positive, faint again but darker than yesterday! I cannot post the photos of the kit yet, because I'm in the office right now and my colleagues might see them.  We didn't tell to anyone yet, even our families.  We want to hear first the heart beat of our little one before telling them.  :)

In God's perfect time, the little one comes.. :)

TVS on CD11 and CD 13

Hello there!  We just got back from our SG trip last Monday and I can say that it was tiring but fun! 
To comply to my OB's advise, I had to undergo TVS on the 3rd and 5th of March.  Right after we land last Monday, we visited UST to have it done. Again, I have a dominant follicle, but in my right ovary measuring 1.48cm this time.  I texted Dra. Ong and was advised to repeat TVS on March 5.

March 5 - This morning, before reporting to work, I had my ultrasound.  My mature follicle now measuring 2.08 cm.  My initial reaction was "WOW". This can rapture anytime so my OB told us to BD today until Friday and undergo again TVS on Saturday morning.

Wishing for bull's eye this time! :)
