DH and I are so happy to know that the babies are doing great. What a great relief! Had to cut the video in two parts. In the video you will hear me, DH and Dr. A. talking, laughing.

My next check up is on the first week of January 2010. By that time, we'll be able to know the gender already. We just can't wait and we don't know if we can contain our excitement...

We are so loving the moment.

Week 15: Quickening

Yesterday, I felt butterflies in my stomach at the lower abdomen to be exact. DH and I got worried so we decided to see Dr. A. a day earlier. Ultrasound came out great and sizes, perfect!

*See encircled figures for their sizes ; click to enlarge*

So what was that poking feeling? Dr. A. said the babies are moving and I can feel them already! Wow, unbelievable.

True enough, the ultrasound showed active babies (I will share video on my next entry). One baby stood out and Dr. A. named it baby kulit *haha* and suspects it to be a baby boy. They are all so CUTE! What a heart-melting experience to see them again.

Baby is about 2 inches big and weighs about a half an ounce. Baby's fingers will soon open and close, the toes will start to curl and the baby's mouth will start making sucking movements. The sex organs are starting to take shape.

Now, here's a video taken by DH while we were doing the ultrasound yesterday. You will hear Dr. A.  as he speaks and explains what's going on inside my womb. Our doctor is also a blessing to us.

Good news is I'm 'safe' already. 1st trimester is over.



What an amazing miracle of life!

Week 12: 1st Trimester is Over

I’m nearing to my month 3 already *yay!* I hope my morning sickness will go away as well. It’s been a great struggle…

Had my 3rd ultrasound. What a heart-melting experience to see the babies! They are growing rapidly! I still couldn’t believe they exist inside me. My tummy as well is growing fast and surprises me everyday. ☺

I’m taking new set of prenatal vitamins --- Caltrate D+ (for calcium), Expecta Lipil (for babies' brain development) and Centrum Materna (for iron) plus vitamin C since I’m so prone to colds. This pregnancy is helping me to be disciplined. Since I was a child, I’m so lazy to take any medications. It has never been in my system to do anything routinely. I want everything at my own pacing but definitely NOT this time.

Actually, this journey is a good training for me. I never imagined myself to be this obedient to Dr. A. *hehe* I follow everything he advises and I know all these will pay off. ☺ Its not only for me but for the babies.

If there’s one person who is having a HARD time during this journey, it’s not me but my husband. I tend to be OVERLY demanding and difficult to handle (blame it to the hormones!) I’m just so lucky to have him. ☺ Every night after we say our prayers, good nights and I love you’s, DH would kiss us (me and my tummy). He often talks to the babies. How sweet isn’t it? I know he’ll be a good dad. ☺He's more excited than me, actually.

Here are the pictures of our babies at Week 12. Click the photos to enlarge.

baby 1 (looks more like a human now...)

baby 2 (top view showing its back)

baby 3 (shy baby? hehe)

A few more weeks and we'll be able to know the gender already, how exciting!

Week 10: One, Two, Oh wait...One more???

Nice picture and cute babies!!!

Had my 2nd ultrasound today. It’s so amazing to see the babies moving! ☺ Guess what? I’m not having one, not two but three babies! Fraternal triplets! ☺ I still couldn’t believe that I have 3 babies inside me. What a blessing from God! ☺ We are praying that we’ll have 2 girls-1boy or 2boys-1 girl and of course all healthy.

Based from the ultrasound, babies are doing great and their sizes are all the same which is a very good sign. No signs of possible spotting or bleeding as well. Whew, thank God!

Week 10 baby

Just to share some changes in me:
- morning sickness started Week 8 to present and I usually have it at night
- nausea, vomiting, excess saliva,
- irritability, food cravings and aversions
- clothes are getting tight

We simply feel soooo blessed! ☺

Week 6: First Ultrasound

I’m on my week 6 day 6. Had my first ultrasound today. Normally, before any procedure Dr. A. would talk to us and ensures expectations are set straight.

On this ultrasound, we were told that we should expect to see the sac already. Lucky to see the baby, and an awesome bonus if we see any heart activity.

Guess what? We were soooo blessed to see all --- sac, baby and the heart beating! Thank God!

If you are good in reading ultrasounds, you might find something strange on the photo *smiles*. I have to keep my mouth shut for now... It's too early to spill the beans but we are so happy. The feeling is PRICELESS!

Take a look:

Will be back on November 10 for my second ultrasound. Baby should be bigger by then.

The Stork Has Come!

Today marks a very special day for us.

Had my blood test this morning and after 2 hours result came in positive. Yes, I’m roughly 4 weeks pregnant! ☺

We paid a visit to the Philippine Center of St. Pio and said our thanksgiving prayers then off to Medical City for my 1st check up.

My OB, Dr. A. gave me pre-natal medicine prescriptions and guess what...a prayer! He's so bait talaga. It was such a good news and blessing after the big typhoon.

This photo was taken on the same day in Astoria Plaza where we are staying for 2wks due to flood.

We just thought of taking this shot so I can have something to post here in my blog and on my pregnancy orgnanizer. Hehe.

Praying for a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery.
