This mommy-to-be had an ob-gyn appointment lately, a prenatal that is. The supposed-to-be scheduled six days ago was done today. No ultrasound and it's fine. It's just this meeting with my doctor that I wasn't able to view my baby but it's fine since I'll be going to go back for two weeks from now. Am just excited. :-) Lately, I had my sugar test, a two-hours aside from a doctor's visit. I did my fasting. After dinner last night, no food and drinks other than water. Had three injections for that sugar test (blood test procedure) at the same time drinking that bottled of orange thing. The first injection by the way was the on-set, the time the laboratory person saw me, first injection, waver and the drinking of a bottled orange thing. This time, no drinking of water including to no foods and drinks. I then moved to the doctor's office/clinic. Then one-hour after, another injection. Then went back to the doctor's clinic. After done went back to the laboratory room waiting for that other hour. Other hour came that makes it two hours of no eating and drinking. Time was up and time to have another injection. Blood drawn and that was it. I will be called upon through phone when there's something negative or am diabetic. If not, it's fine and will be told on the next appointment. I hope nothing major problem. :)
I am now 134 pounds in my 28th week (2nd day). The doctor said what happened with my weight. Ha! If you remember, I lost nine(9) pounds on my 2nd-4th months but now am overweight of six(6) pounds. Oops! Not that so bad but still I should have to have only 128 pounds. And now I have to less eating carbs like rice, bread and stuffs like that. Sweets too. I can make it, I know. Good luck to me. I don't want my baby to be big when she's still in the tummy so I have to watch-out my carbohydrates and eating thingy. :-) I don't want to have a caesarian.
Hello! How everyone doing? I hope you have a blast. I know I have a lot to catch-up and still am such a busy-bee. My body is my very first concern because my precious baby is inside my tummy. You know, the feeling of motherhood-to-be. I don't want to get stressed since the baby will get affected. Have to prioritized the baby's health most. She's still inside so she's depending on my mood and feelings most. So I have to be careful.
Anyway, I just had my baby shower last January 19th. It was a fun one. Though many weren't able to attend (to which I understand), still was a fun one. Surrounded with friends is surely a kind of precious time. I treasure it. I love my friends and thanks for being one. :-)
I bought two pieces of other house or pregnancy clothes. It could also be a nursing ones because it has its buttons good for breastfeeding. It's from Ralph and Lauren and the other one is, ooh sorry I forgot. But surely, its texture is pretty soft, made from cotton. This dresses serves three reasons!
First, it is for pregnancy time. Second, a house clothes. And I could still use this even if I am not pregnant anymore, nursing time. Thirdly, I can use it inside the apartment complex (with leggings) whenever I do laundry and throwing trash. Isn't that cool? *wink* ;-)
Yey! I can't wait any longer. Oops! Mommy-to-be is excited huh! Why not! It is time again for friends bonding most especially celebrating my baby's first occasion. Husbands of my friends will bond too! Dorie, my friend hosts this Baby Shower which will be on the 19th. Other amazing friends will also help, thanks to them in advance. For now, we're busy preparing stuffs and am busy budgeting with the suggestions of my friend, of course. I don't know a lot about baby shower so I depend on her suggestions and I'll be the one to buy the stuffs.
I really wanted to have a baby shower because I do not know if this will be the one pregnancy I am going to have. Even if I will be going to have another one again, It's really different if the first one has. Also, it is great to have laughs again with friends and some acquaintances, as I said earlier. Also, the whole roasted pig adds my excitement. Wink.
Happy baby shower for me and my baby Sarah Ann in advance. ;-)
