JOURNEY TO MOTHERHOOD

… join me as I experience all the struggle of being a mom.

Food Cravings

The first trimester of pregnancy is indeed not the easiest part. This is when you feel so  uncomfortable because of Pregnancy Symptoms. Some pregnant women had the worst symptoms while some are not that experiencing much of it.

Let me tell you my experience. Im on the 2nd month of pregnancy now. And as far as I observed, the symptoms I hate the most is vomiting and dizziness all the time. I also have these laziness , sensitiveness and mood swings. Add the food cravings of course.

Food cravings for a pregnant women are sometimes unusual but sometimes its like a normal cravings for some food you want to taste for so long. As for me, I crave for dried fish and Fish Sauce (also called Bagoong) most of the time. I like veggies with fish sauce. I don’t know why but these are the food that took shine to me. For me, they are like the most delicious food ever on earth. lol!

Result of my first Ultra Sound

Last August 13, sadly the Friday the 13th which they said a very unlucky day turned out to be my Luckiest day ever. It’s because this is the first time I was able to see my little one growing on my tummy and  a bonus of seeing and hearing his/her heartbeat. It’s really amazing!

We travel all the way to Bangor Hospital – St. David’s Hospital for my ultra sound. the appointment is at 12:10 PM.

Blood Test

I know nothing about pregnancy. But I really do want to have a baby as I’m not getting any younger. Undergoing lots of tests are one of a newly pregnant women must do. Especially Blood tests which is very useful for checking the health of the baby and the mother. And to check whether we both need proper care in case they’ve found something wrong with me and my baby. Some of the tests are HIV tests, Hepatitis B, Anemia, Blood group, Rubella and etc.

August 4 at 2:15PM. I was scheduled for my second appointment. I don’t have Idea what will Julie (my Midwife) needs to discuss or do today. All I know is a need to fill up a small bottle of urine to monitor any problems regarding my urinary tract. And I need to give her a bottle every time we will meet which is fine with me.

Check-Up Updates … 99.9% Accurate!

After I’ve learned I was finally pregnant. Habibi called the Surgery Clinic to book appointment for me.

1:45 PM on July 20th – Habibi accompanied me to the Surgery. And since I’m still not convinced for my Pregnancy, I asked the doctor how accurate the Home Pregnancy Test is. She then told me Home and Hospital Pregnancy is almost the same. And they are 99.9% accurate! Hmmm seems like I have to start acting like a mom now. I was really chuffed.

It’s Positive!

This is my very first post on this site.. The day I’ve found out I’m Positive – I’m PREGNANT. You heard me right!

I’ve been married for 2 years, 5 Months and 6 days to be exact. Me and Habibi was trying for yonks to finally make our little version of ourselves but no Luck. Till my brother and family came over for a visit. I think, luck came from them what do you think?

I’m not really sure how many weeks is my baby bump at the moment but will find out on Friday (Hooray!). I’m scheduled for my very first Ultra Sound. And I’m kinda excited about it. Hopefully he/she’s very healthy and in good condition. Hmmm can’t wait for Friday to come.
