i was feeling restless all-night because my legs and lower back felt so heavy. sometime during the night (or dawn??), i toss and turn to relieve myself of the uncomfortable feeling and then, i woke up around 5AM feeling wet. even if i feel so sleepy, i dragged myself up to change undies. and viola! i have some streak of blood on my undies! got so scared and woke up my sister. she said that i could probably go into labor anytime soon!! hu-whatt??!!! and we didn't even have things ready!!!
and so, we hurriedly wash the baby things, sorted out which things to bring and got my things ready as well. finally by 8 AM baby things were dried and ironed out. me and my sister were also ready to go. sigh. talk about photo finishing! hihi.
around 9AM, we went to the emergency clinic of Corniche Hospital. i had my blood pressure and urine sample taken. afterwhich, the midwife asked me what is the problem. i told her that about the blood. she asked me if i felt any pain?? i said "no". and she said that there's no cause for an alarm since what happened was just normal. she said that i should go back to the hospital if there is pain or a gush of blood and water. otherwise, what she termed as "bloody show" is a false alarm for labor. ganun!! anyway, i sure hope baby goes out tomorrow para Easter Sunday and a good feng shui number ang birthday nya. hahaha!
from Corniche, me and my sister went to Emirates General Market. we were able to get a big pot to be used for sterilizing bottles. it's more practical and there won't be any issues of bottles not fitting in if they are of different brands. buti yun, just in case someone gives us feeding bottles as gifts, we won't worry about compatibility problems. =) assuming ba!!! hehe.
come night time, we also went to Baby Shop and i was able to get feeding bottles rack, a maternity pad and a breast pump. yippee! konti na lang kulang and were ready to go!!! some other things we still need to purchase are:
- clothes hanger (with around 15-20 clips)
- baby clips
- baby shampoo
- playpen
if i still don't give birth tomorrow, we could perhaps pass by another shop and shop around. =) sabi siguro ni baby ang gala ng mommy nya... hihi.
