Pregnancy Journey!

This is the very first time and maybe the last time I'll be posting photos of my tummy during my pregnancy. For you to see how my tummy grows during the pregnancy.

 

I found out I'm pregnant on the 1st day of February 2017. After testing three (3) different types Pregnancy Test Kit with all two red lines results, I am indeed pregnant and we are soon-to-be parents.

I craved for Mcdonalds Cheesy Eggdesal. Atoy's Porkchop. Choco Liquor Cakes. Pancit Bihon. Leche Plan. And oh I so love to eat Chickens... But, I hate spaghetti.

I never go on a diet during my pregnancy, I ate everything I want, but I don't drink sodas just water and fruit juices.

I drink the Anmum Materna Concentrate instead of the usual milk powder for pregnant because it tasted better that the latter.

I had a monthly spotting until the 7th month, it was normal for me, its genetic, my mom was like that when she was pregnant with me. 

March 3, 2017 when we first saw the baby and hear his heartbeat through a Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVS).  

June 9, 2017 when we found out that we are having a boy.

July 7, 2017 had another ultrasound to confirm baby's gender and yeah its really a boy. And we now have a name for the baby, Marco Sebastian or Baby Basti.

August 20, 2017 bought all the things the baby needs when he came out. Thanks SM City Calamba for its 3 day sale.. We got a lot of discounts and freebies.

September 12, 2017 I had my last ultrasound to check the baby's position.

September 17, 2017 Marco Sebastian was born.

And on the next blog is my birthing story. 

Happy New Year!

Wait wait.. New year already? Posted my last blog entry last September, just before I gave birth. I need to catch up. But before that, I just want to greet all of you a Happiest New Year...

A brand new year to start planning and dreaming again. A new year to start and set a new goal, a new hobby, to take new adventure and to experience new things..

Happy 2018! From our growing little family. :♥

Tatay's 37th Birthday!

 Tatay Joel's 37th Birthday Celebration last August 28, 2017,

 his actual birthday is on the 29th but we celebrate it a day earlier.

It's his first birthday as a soon to be baby daddy.

Baby Kick!

I am now 31 weeks pregnant.
And, I can really feel when our baby kick.
It was a bit shocking at first but I really love it when he's moving.
I can really feel his heartbeat.
It was really amazing that God bless us with this little bundle of joy.

I'm so excited when the day comes that I can really hold him in my arms.

The soon-to-be Tatay is excited too.
He's imaging that his baby will look like him.

And also the soon-to-be Lola, imagining how she can take care of her grandson.

We're really praying that our baby is normal and healthy.

And I'll deliver him here on earth safe and sound.

I know God will be there to help and guide us with our growing family.

Wishes before I gave birth.

I'm on my 28th weeks of pregnancy, almost 7 months and 2 months to go before I pop.

We're going to have a baby [To be announced on the 22nd of July]...

We already had a name for the baby.

We already know where to gave birth and I hope to do it normally.

What I wish before I gave birth?

I wish for a healthy, safe and normal baby and pregnancy.

I wish I can provide all the things my baby needs when he/she was born.

I wish I can buy all the things in my Dream for the Baby list.

I wish to have my maternity shoot.

I wish we can renovate our home before I gave birth, so it was a brand new home for our baby. No more termites, cockroaches and bukbok please.

I'm imagining how it will look like. If in God's will, I know in 2 months time it will happen.

I hope God will answered all my prayers. Thank you Lord!
