Second Pregnancy


Hi!

It's my second pregnancy, I can say that I am at the happiest moment of my life. My first born is already 6 years old and been longing to be a "kuya"(brother). He had been praying hard, visiting some churches with my mother-in-law to wish for a sibling. Blessed God heard him. My husband and I never expected for me to be pregnant for we have been trying to conceive for quite sometime. We weren't even using any contraceptives for almost 4 years. I was planning to go to an OBGyne last November- December. I really wanted a professional advice and had some medical tests to check if I was still fit to be a mother. However, it wasn't my priority then. I was too lazy to go and thinking that I should have my finances ready too if would start seeing and OB. On the last week of December, something was quite strange I noticed that I was gaining weight again and my period was delayed. Secretly, I bought some pregnancy tests on December 30th to check if I am pregnant. Both PT results were negative. I thought I was just delayed and the fats on my waist was just because of the holiday. I got to enjoy drinking for holidays celebration for I was at ease that I was not preggy. Days passed, I tried to make another round of test on January 2nd. Is it positive? The second line was unclear. I told my husband birh of us were not convinced. I took pregnancy tests consecutively until January 5th. All of them were positive. I couldn't contain my happiness. We went to the OB on the 6th. The doctor confirmed my pregnancy. Gave me vitamins to take. Moreover, there's still doubt in me. Why? It's because I didn't see my baby yet. No ultrasound was made until the next Sat January 13th. It was pure joy to hear the sonologist saying your baby is healthy. No problems on my ovary. Thank you Lord for hearing our prayers. My husband was on a business trip at that time so he couldn't accompany me. I just sent him photos of my ultrasound and I bet he was more excited than I do. He posted our baby's 1st ultrasound on his facebook page. My pregnancy give me a lot of worries. I always want to assure my baby is safe. I am always excited for my trip to my OB. I am now on my 27th week. Few more to go and I can finally hug my little one.

Congenital Anomaly Scan in Quezon City

Are you also searching for ultrasound clinic in Quezon City? Specifically in Novaliches area. I also tried to make some research to nearby clinics for I need to be practical, since some clinics are offering same procedure but different prices.  I first asked the hospital I am going to for my pre-natal check up. I called Pacific Global Medical Center to ask their rate and it is around 3100 pesos. Yes? It's almost the same price of a 4d ultrasound. Second inquiry was at Face to Face in SM North Edsa. 2D CAS is 2500. Wow quite cheaper than the first one. If you want to have your Congenital Scan you have to call them for an appointment and they have fixed schedule Tuesday 12NN to 4PM and Friday 3-6 PM. See the photo below for their package: Third clinic I called is New World Diagnostic in Baesa. CAS is at 1800+. After finding out it's the cheapest I settled. I didn't book for an appointment because it's a first come first serve. They just informed me the schedule ...

1st Check up!March 16th

1st Check up!March 16th I was so scared and worried. I didn't know what to do.. I've never been hospitalized before. We waited for few minutes before my name was called...The OB just asked few questions... And told me that I was 6 weeks and 6 days pregnant. She advised me to take folic acid for my baby's brain development.I was told to have Trans-V ultrasound to see the baby... After hours of waiting I had the result. A bean like in my uterus. Oh I am really pregnant. After joy there's a big problem to face.. My mother.. (full story)

It's positive :)

           Few days after our conception, I noticed some changes in me, my mood.. sleeping pattern.. cravings.. and feeling so weak. I didn't tell anybody about it. I started to check early signs of pregnancy and feeling nervous everytime there's a sign checked. Few weeks later, I tried to have a pregnancy test.. And Yes, It's positive! I got mixed emotion that time. First, I was so happy because I'm a real woman. Yeepee! I can bear a child. Second, I was so scared 'coz I didn't know how will I tell it to my mother. And last, I felt excitement.. thinking how will my baby look like, the gender, and so on.. On the other hand.. My boyfriend was so happy! It's like a dream come true for him.. He was so proud and eager to tell everybody about the good news. And yeah..the next day his mom knew about it already..then his aunts and uncles, friends and colleagues. That's how happy he was.
