The News

Days come and go as they have always been.
However, I am very alert with slight changes around me, what more my very own body.

2 to 3 months before I became pregnant, I was easily bloated.
Plus I am allergic to 1001 things in this world and the allergy heighten each time. There were more and more things which I was allergic to.
Deep down I knew that the body was preparing for itself to carry a Lil' One.

So me and the husband tried and we failed and failed.
On the third sequence, we just gave a shot.
I was so busy driving Microsoft Office 2010 to schools and was so exhausted with Her Closet and tuition and allocating time for the husband and family.

A week before the routine cycle, I had my 'period'.
Failed attempt.
Life goes on.. well.. that has always been my motto.
There is nothing much one can do once its done.

So on Day 3, the bleeding stopped.
I was puzzled.
Day 5 it continued.
I was nervous.
Day 7 it stopped.
I was edgy.
Day 9 it continued.
I went beserk.

I told the husband I wanted to go for a check up.
I suspected cyst and blah blah blah..

We went to a normal gynae and she told me to take a pregnancy test.
I thought she was crazy but so I did.
The line was faint.
So she told me of 2 possibilities.

One was that I was pregnant and I will need to check the home kit again a week later.
The other was that it may be a miscarriage.

So a week later I checked and the line was pretty strong.
I told the husband,"Darling, you will be a father."
He smiled.
It is his dreams to start a family soon.

We went to a gynae.
Paid 2 bombs for the 2 visits and the husband was not happy that we are not getting enough information that we would love to have.

But we found out I was 5 weeks pregnant then and I am placed on Duphaston to relax the womb.
2 weeks later we met her, it was barely 10 mins.

So we switched today to a gynae at Thomson Medical at a walk-in.
4 doctors rejected us.
1 didn't and I was very happy.
We prayed for God to help us pick a good gynae.

This time round we are very contented.
Dr Eunice Chua is amazing.
She is so gentle and caring and accomodating.
Here we are afraid taking up her time and there she was asking us if there were any questions we wanted to ask.

I heart her already.

Today, she confirmed my baby is 9 and a half weeks.
The Lil' One was moving both his hands up and down.
I let out a little laugh.
Amazing!
When I heard the heartbeat, I was like,"Oh my!!!"

I looked at the husband from time to time and his eyes was just fixed on the monitor.
This was exactly what he is looking forward to.
More him than me for I am too busy to accomodate to the kiddo.

Been trying to hide it but the Lil' One didn't help me much.
Plus I had a lot of wind in my tummy which made it look bigger.
So when the ladies see me outside it is hard to hide.
But it took 1 relative who met me at a wedding and 4 days later it spread like wildfire!
Other relatives were calling my mom and congratulating her when I was away on Bangkok.

Yesterday, I met my cousin at my husband's friend wedding who congratulated me. I was shocked. He is my second cousin.
Then he said,"You can't hide. The whole world knows about it."

That was when I am tired of hiding.
So I let it out in the open to Twitter yesterday, answering the ladies questions weeks back.
Well, I had many heartwarming replies and I could not reply to all of them!

Still, thank you everyone for the doa and well wishes.
I pray all will be well for me and the junior.

I am enjoying pregnancy.
No morning sickness.
Only exhaustion, craving and getting all the manja from my husband and family

*loves*

I am one happy mummy.
Insya Allah the junior will be a happy baby.
