My pregnancy journey pt 2

2014-03-24T06:21:00.003+00:00

First trimester

I was on my 5-6 weeks of pregnancy when we learned about it, but days before that i was unconsciously having first sign of pregnancy, like i want rice each breakfast as in kain kung kain talaga,hehe i always crave for crispy pata that i eat with so much happiness and kulang n lng maubos ko na :) and for the first time i ate dinuguan in a party, which i don't usually do, i only eat dinuguan if its my mother's cooking, i slept a lot as in a lot ha, after breakfast, before and after lunch.. haha para lng akong baboy i woke up in the afternoon asking for siomai and rice then go back to sleep once more..haha

On my 6th week I flew to Saudi Arabia with my husband,which means new environment for me. I was having a hard time adjusting with the new habitat, I was experiencing jet lag, i was feeling sad because i am far from my nanay once again and for the first time i will live with my husband in one roof with just the two of us now (which is creepy at first,haha). Everything was new to me. I felt lost for a few days,adjusting with the time, environment, pregnancy, being all alone in our room for hours as the husband goes to work, napapanis ang laway ko sa daldal kong ito biglang mag isa na lang ako (lol) and one more thing that adds to my boredom was we don't have internet connection for half a month :(.

And in extension I don't know what i want to ingest, i only had 3-4 spoons of food then ayaw ko na, i will feast upon apple or orange na lang. i was being picky with the food i want to take in (which is part of pregnancy) nahihiya ako sa asawa ako kasi feeling ko ang arte arte ko,hehe but what can i do my taste buds was acting up :) there are times that i only want fried foods, like hotdog (purefoods) and eggs or corned beef (purefoods) which eventually i find not healthy so i cut it off on my diet, and there are nights that i craved for pizza, and the husband was sweet enough to take home some :)

One of the hardest thing to get over with is missing the taste of pork :( i was craving for it but couldn't do anything, since its was forbidden here. So what i did i only dreamed about about it na lang to satisfy my cravings..hehe

On the other hand, I only experienced evening sickness which didn't last long though, nasusuka ako n parang wala nmn lalabas, puro laway lang, Kaya di ako masyado nahirapan, sa pagkain lng talaga, there are times my husband didn't know what to cook anymore because i don't eat much, so some of it end up to waste. (sorry Lord) and the only thing i hate much is the smell of newly cooked rice, ohh I cant stand it i feel nauseous.

And Lastly, the one thing that made it more strenuous for us was, I was developing rashes all over my legs :( and we couldn't pin point the cause, it first started when i ate Tuna, so we suspect it was it, my husband put on petroleum jelly and it went down, but then the following day nagpantal pantal ulit, whats more annoying is it sometimes grow in the middle of the night :( it was like that for months, we suspect maybe there's a bed bug so we bought a bug spray and sprayed it all over our bed, the alikabok, so we cleaned the whole room, throw unnecessary things so the dust wont file up,the water from the faucet maybe there's an unwanted chemical or my skin is also adjusting with the weather and the list go on, we were getting paranoid about it, So we consulted my OB and she gave me pills to take, it helped but still it wont go away completely, we tried putting baking soda, baby powder, calamine, fissan powder, and cethaphil for as my bath soap, it all helped but still not completely gone :(

After weeks of observation on my food intake,my husband suspects it was the "~~salt"~~, cause at that time i always eat fruits together with salt, so then i limit my salt intake and as the days pass by the rashes became less and less until December came it was completely gone. :) (praise the Lord!!)

(i wont upload the other pics as it looks awful. hehe)

Well, that's my first trimester story, adjustment adjustment adjustment but with the help of my husband i get over with all of those. So expect a happy 2nd trimester story..hehe

My pregnancy journey 1

2014-03-22T03:18:00.001+00:00

Ok Ok its time to write down my pregnancy journey, before i will forget all about it due to anesthesia.

Im pregnant!!

Its the faithful day of Aug 22 when we first tried to perform the pregnancy test because my menstruation was delayed for days, considering that it comes on the dot monthly. so as they it will give you more reliable result when you use it with your first urine of the day when h Cg is high in amount in your urine. So i did it, waited for a few minutes and saw a two lines, but the last line was a little bit fainted, i showed it to my husband with a little bit of disappointment and we both agree that maybe its a negative result because it doesn't look like as the picture showed in the box, so we threw it and continue with are activity for the day.

On the same day, while we are on the car on the way to Makati, i am still bothered by the result so i Google the result looking for another interpretation, it says that two lines is a positive result no matter how faint the other one is, its because that the presence of hCg maybe low in urine. but i am still not satisfied so we decided to take another test the following day. :) (hindi pa ako nawawalan ng pag asa)

The next day we are up early (due to excitement and appointment) and i tried to do the test again, and it gave us the same result and to make sure about it, we asked my husband's sister in law to confirm us the good news :) and she said yes 'its positive".. Thank you Lord!!! my husband and i couldn't contain our happiness :) so i asked my husband to searched for the other HPT in the garbage because it is the first indicator that we our pregnant :) and since we finished our other appointment earlier, we decided to drop by in a hospital to confirm my pregnancy and asked for advice by the reason of i am flying with my husband in a few days.

The doctor says I am on my fourth to fifth week of pregnancy, at first i couldn't understand how does it happen, my husband just got home from Saudi just the last week of july.. haha i was the one in doubt pa :) Dr. explained to me that it was counted from the first day of my LMP. "haha, ok ok now i do understand" then she asked me to have a urine exam and trans vaginal ultrasound. :)

Everything was perfectly planned by God, 2013 was the year when my husband decided to take me with him here in Saudi, so we could start leaving together and the timing was so perfect I got pregnant before i came here. it was in my prayer na whenever I get pregnant dapat mgkasama na kami, and the Lord hears my prayer. i am so thankful and feeling blessed for everything that happened for everything we've been through to make this far. :)

"Commit everything you d to the Lord. Trust Him and He will help you.Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for Him to act."

hes coming home

2012-09-13T07:13:00.001+01:00

Finally my husband is coming home again. haha, its been 7 months when he fly back to work and i miss him terribly You see, we just get married last January and it was too hard for us to go separate ways again just weeks after are wedding day, but that's life! He need to go to work for our better future.

come to think of it we should be taking it easy by now, i mean being separated. Because our situation has been like that for almost 6 years now, if my readers (as if many) could remember it is I who went abroad first and after two years when i finally decided to go home, my boyfriend then decided to look for work overseas. it wasn't that difficult because we were used to the situations of being apart, thanks to the internet we can see each other everyday spite of our distance.

enough of the look backs, hes coming home this Oct for another short vacation, i know "short vacation" only but, it is better than not seeing him again. hope this time God will bless us with a baby.. Good luck to Us ;)

pain in love

2012-08-29T07:59:00.001+01:00

I don't know what i am feeling right now, blue? odd? sad? what ever you may call it, all i know is that I am not happy at my current state. Been arguing with the husband about certain things that link with the past situation. As much as I wanted i want to forget all about it and start a new, but every time I find myself in the same boat, I cant help but think about it all over again, its like a movie scene that keeps rewinding in my head and I cant stop it, i keep telling my self that i need to let go of the past to start fresh for our future, but its like a dream that hunt me and i need to voice it out to make me calm but in exchange it will hurt the feelings of my husband. I get too frustrated and don't know how to deal with it.

The things we argue about may seem shallow to some people but kinda necessary for me to bargain with, its all about broken promises, that in the past that i just forgive but today seems to be a habit for him, i can understand some situations but then again, I'm just human, i wont able to take all the annoyance as it files up through the years, I continue to forgive him for everything but it seems things doesn't change, It continually happens every now and then and I hate myself for letting it take place over and over. But what can I do, I love the person and every word that comes out from his mouth i undoubtedly believed and embraced it unquestionably, but there are times that i ask myself if i have to believe it again? shall i in store it in my mind and heart or just let pass through my other ear, my heart was broken a few times, good times heals it but crash every time a promise was not fulfilled. Sometimes i blamed myself for letting it arise, asked myself why i didn't learn from the past situation, but then again those situations strengthen me and I am still not loosing hope that someday one of those broken promises will still come true.

Hope is always there as long as i accept that things will not go on, on our own happiness. Only time will tell when all things become possible..

NAKAKAINISSS!!!

haaaayy so sorry if i was screaming, i just cant hide my disappointment from those people who only sees your body size and not what underlines it, :(
ikw b nmn pagpasok mo pa lng sa pinto wala ng ibang sasabihin kundi mataba, mataba mataba! my god, hindi n nga pinapansin, ulit ulitin talaga, at sa lahat ng usapan kailangan ipagdiinan na mataba??!!!
o cia, cge na, kau n ang payat, tanung ko lng maganda ka ba???
wala n bang pwedeng ibng sabihin, kaya ba napakabigat ng paa ko sa pagpunta sa bahay na yun, kaya ba napaka-hirap ilapit ang sarili ko sa knila, kasi wla n cla ginawa kundi kutyain ang katawan ko :( and honestly, it was so depressing for me :( why cant they accept who i am,what my body size is and what i can do for them :( my God, is the body size the norm in accepting people in your lives :( kawawa nman kau, ur missing too much from me :(
