Ultrasound... round two!
I went to my OB GYN last Thursday (April 12). That was my 4th visit (I didn't know I was pregnant until January 14!) hence the number of visits.As usual the question and answer happened. I showed her my previous month's Urine Analysis results, and it looked fine. I might as well have another before going to her by next month. She told me to get hemoglobin tests and Hepatitis B tests by next month prior to going to her for the May prenatal visit.
I weighed in 127lbs by the way. baaaaad! suppppeeeerrr baddd!!! i mean, I was supposed to gain about 4lbs only or maybe about 5 lbs max, apparently, I over estimated my eating the past holy week I guess that I gained almost double what I'm supposed to gain. huhuhuh!
Blood Pressure is steady at 110/70. Then she measured height of Fundus-- I'm not s familiar with it, but she told me it was okay, very ok i think. Lastly the heartbeat... which is the coolest thing (again...) becuase it is getting very very loud..
Baby is very active everyday. Thank God for that. By the time I wake up in the morning the baby is already up! i mean awake. and is kicking/moving around my tummy.. hehehe...
Saturday was very exciting. I had my 2nd ultrasound. It was kinda cool because I am to find out the sex of the baby. It's a girl!!! :D yahoo! I know hun will be a bit disappointed becuase he really wanted to have a baby boy.. but having a girl is not bad! It'll be exciting to raise a girl. :)
Now, the baby naming begins!
It ain't so easy after all...
I am now on my 24th week. Pregnancy I mean. Roughly 16 weeks before D-day.
And it is not very very easy. As the pregnancy progresses I am now feeling how hard it is to carry a baby inside your tummy. And I thought I could just breeze through this thing.
A lot of things has happened in the last month. I as not able to write too much because of work and other things. hehe. SO I might as well recap some of those things.
1- Just last week, my grandfather passed away. He was just 66 years old. He has been bedridden for the last 6 and 1/2 years though so I thought it was a much needed rest for him.. I'm sad that he won't see my baby be born in a few months time, but God has a purpose for us all. So I guess that his request as my uncle told us has been granted him. I'll miss him, my cousins and I will miss him for sure...
2- Two weeks ago something happened in our project team. It was not supposed to happen but when egos get touched, when you are shoved in a corner, although it was not the situation I (or we as a group) percieved it to become, I guess it has somehow became the situation with that associate. oh well, It may be a very different situation from hereon. But rest assured we will push on with what we are doing and I want it done... all of it. (before I give birth I hope!)
3- Relationship is difficult when you are apart. It is harder when one of you is pregnant. Honestly, I thought it will be easy, but it isn't. At all. Of course I am very positive that in the end of this all we'll be in each others arms, and get that happily ever after I have been praying for. I guess arriving at that point won't be easy. Nothing near to that. Sometimes, when I am home and alone inside my room, I'd really just stare at the TV set and sometimes begin to cry. A tear, buckets of it sometimes. It's sad to be alone at this point, but I would want to carry on that battle. It is not yet over, it's far from it. So far from it!
