Thanks to all who joined the poll. I enjoyed reading your comments, emails, messages in Facebook and SMS. Everybody had fun, right? *smiles*

Most of you got it right, we are having 2 girls and a boy! *beams* We couldn't be more excited! We also had our Congenital Anomaly Scan (CAS) yesterday and results came in okay (Thank God!) we're praying that our babies to continue their progress until I give birth and of course grow up...

The fun begins --- finding names for the babies, (hubby's assignment) shopping for baby stuffs times 3 lahat... (read: start of bankruptcy! LOL) preparing babies' nursery room, the works! I have already prepared a 'never-ending' list of things to do hoping to organize ASAP so I won't be swamped with too many things to worry. I don't wanna be stressed/ugly! *evil laugh*

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.

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!

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!
