4th Monthly Check-up
i had another check-up today with my OB-GYNE. my urine was normal but my blood pressure was low at 87/63 (that explains the dizziness!). i now weighed heavily at 49.9 kilos ! mabigat pa yata ako kay Pacquiao...hehe.
i told my doctor that i am experiencing dizziness nowadays and have dreams almost every night. this is quite unusual because i am the type of person who seldom have dreams. anyway, my dreams weren't scary but then i dream of movie stars like John Lloyd and Jason of Pinoy Big Brother. sometimes i dream of a whole movie, my officemates, typhoon in UAE, all sorts! other times i can continue my dreams just in case it got interrupted. =) weird!
my doctor said that it was normal because of the many worries i have in mind. she advised me to focus on the positive side of things.
i also had a blood test, which she said she requires from me every two months. the test is for full blood count and glucose check. the nurse asked if i am a new employee, i since i looked like a scared little kitten. i told her that i am not new, it's just that i am always scared of needles and other blood sucking thingy.

Some More Changes
i haven't measured my tummy yet, but the size of which is of the same height as my breasts. but how large are my breasts, right now? i wanted to post a photo but i don't think it'll be worth viewing in public. haha. to give you an idea, i just bought new size 36 brassieres (from size 32, i am now size 36). wow!!! i hope it stays this way even after i give birth. hehe. wish ko lang... however, with the enlargement of my breasts, the areola has enlarged as well. eeww!!! sagwa talaga.
in addition, a line suddenly became visible below my breasts that goes to my tummy. it's more of having my "balbon" concentrated and thus resembles a line. parang yung mga lalaki. ngahaha. sinabi nang nde ako lalaki eh!!!
i am still disturbed by my nausea every now and then. last week, i vomitted for 5 straight days!!! working days pa huh! anyhow, i am beginning to get used to it.

Hay
referring to my previous post, i was just so disappointed that morning sickness wasn't really gone for good. :(
i started vomitting yesterday afternoon right after reaching home and had another one this morning right after reaching the office. i was really about to vomit in our shuttle. buti na lang, umabot ako sa ground floor ladies room. hay. if i was a split second late, i would have created a smelly mess either at the bus or in our lobby. hehe.
i am also suffering from lower back pains. since my hubby and i have reconciled the other day, i can now get a good back rub with a little lambing. hihi.

Bye-bye Nausea!!!
yey!!! it has been 2 days already that i haven't experience nausea in the morning and having less and less vomitting sensation in the evening. my being sensitive to food taste is becoming less as well. the only times i feel bad was when i've eaten so much or i've eaten something which my tummy does not approve of. to my dismay, it includes fresh tomato and fried eggplant which i love. =(
anyhow, despite the ocasional ease i am feeling with my tummy, my body is still not as active as it was. maybe because my hubby has been very bad lately (the usual reason that bothers me everytime...) and i have lots of worries in my mind that disturbs me even at my sleep.
i noticed though that when someone was able to make me have a hearty laugh, my day brightens up and the sick feeling goes away. how i wish to be surrounded with friends everyday!

Feeling Sick All Day Long
according to Kris Aquino, pag morning sickness daw, you'll probably have a boy. pag evening sickness naman, you'll probably have a girl. my question is, pano kung morning and evening sickness at minsan, even at noon!! sobrang selan talaga ni bebe. he/she's letting me experience what being pregnant really feels.
kapag nde ko naman nailabas, sobrang bad hair day naman ako. as in, nde ko ma-explain ang pakiramdam basta i'm not in the mood to do anything than be a couch potato. =( my OB says that i should be getting rid of this nausea and sick feeling by now. however, my bebe's quite papansin talaga. mana yata sa akin. hihi.

3rd Visit with my OB-GYNE
i took a one-day vacation leave at work for my third visit with my doctor. i was at the ADNOC clinic exactly 9:30 AM for my ultrasound appointment. i had an abdominal ultrasound only as opposed to a transvaginal ultrasound i was originally scheduled to have (nakuha sa kakakulit sa doctor... hehe).
the ultrasonographer assigned today is quite nicer than the one assigned on my previous visit. she showed me my baby! likot-likot na niya. at first, i could only see his head, then his whole body and then, nakatuwad na!! haha. his head,body, arms and legs were already formed. at least, now i am sure he's not ET. hihi. sayang nga eh, because the ultrasonographer said that if i had my scan next week, we could have seen his gender already. as in, ganun kabilis ang formation ni bebe. =) i was able to view him in clear picture talaga. dapat lang noh, nagsuka muna mommy nya kakainom ng maraming tubig just to make sure he'll be bright and clear sa U/S screen. again, his heartbeat was checked and was still detected. parang in-love na nga si bebe sa bilis ng heartbeat nya eh. type siguro yung nag-scan sa kanya. hihi.
after i got the result of my scan, i went to my doctor for her interpretation of the same. of course, i had the usual BP (95/67), weight (48 kgs) and urine (normal) check. after which she said, that at this stage, baby's formation is doing fine. she just adviced me to continue eating healthy and pray for a more healthy formation for the rest of his tenure in my tummy. she gave me Easy Iron tablets as added supplements and scheduled my 4th visit after Eid, which is on October 30.
