Patiently Waiting....

My OGTT results turned out ok, baby is now cephalic. I'm not gaining much weight, though I've been busy eating..haha!

This weekend, I'll be on my 38 weeks of pregnancy. I have been patiently waiting for the big day to arrive. Doctor told me to walk everyday. It seems that walking ain't an easy task for me now, the feeling is very different compared to my former weeks. I pee a lot.

I wish to make a safe and normal delivery this year end. Thank you Lord for all the blessings you have given us. We can't thank you enough for all of it. We hope to have a great year ahead.

Advance Merry Christmas everyone!

I can feel Christmas coming

Yesterday after work, when I walked out of the building, I felt a cold breeze. I guess that's because we are approaching the month of December. Suddenly, after forgetting about Christmas because of the storms that contributed to alot of loss to our fellow Filipinos, I kind of go back to the excitement of the coming Holidays. Top reason would be because we are so happy to see our baby come last week of Dec or early January.

Eventhough I've been to much stress at work, I still find the joy of having my little one. I can feel him more from my tummy and his movements are more visible from the outside. Tomorrow I'll be having my last OGTT and final ultrasound on my 35th week. I just pray that everything will be okay.

May everyone from my family and friends find their own peace and happiness this coming Christmas. God bless everyone!

My Baby Boy at 6 Months

On my 24th week, I decided to have my Congenital Anomaly Scan to check my baby's development. The head, spine, heart, kidneys, feet, hand, face, stomach, umbilical cord, amniotic fluid were examined. I was happy to know that everything is normal with my little one. We also had the chance to confirm the gender if it is really a girl when seen at four months, and it turned out to be a boy. His Dad was so delighted that we ended up shopping for the baby afterwards.

This coming Saturday, I'm turning six and a half months. The baby's kick are now more recognizable. My appetite is now coming back although I still have to watch out on my sugar intake. At week 30, I will be having my OGTT again. I hope everything else will go well until my delivery. I can't wait to see my baby. Hopefully, we will be able to achieve our target savings on my 9th month.

I'm on my 5th Month

I have been busy working lately that I wasn't able to update my blog. Anyways, I took the OGTT and was found negative of gestational diabetes. I had to pee 4 times every one hour and the nurse had to take a blood sample every hour as well. I didn't eat for almost 12 hours.

This month, I have been so excited about our baby coming, I can already feel the baby move, it's makes me super happy. Here are some of the items I have gotten from Baby Armstrong, Garfield, Pigeon and Billy Bob. I have gotten the funny pacifier from ebay because it isn't available locally in the market. I can't wait for my baby to come out and be at 6 months for me to try the pacifier on. On the clothes and blankets, I decided to get neutral colors at first because we are not yet sure about the gender of the baby, though the doctor told us that it might be a girl.
