that's right, it is our 3rd anniversary today. years pass by so fast and I am going to share the story of our greatest gift ever received.
Even before we came to SG I have this cyst in my right ovary that thank-goodness doesn't grow bigger. So just to make sure things are okay, last January, I made an appointment with an OB. she said that my hormones are normal, so are my ovaries and that I am ovulating. however, she found a polyp(s) in the middle of my uterus and that there is nothing to worry, that it may be due to my hormones. So i have to be back that next month for another check-up and be scanned again.
then come Feb we went to Pinas for our two-week vacation. the usual, all of them are eager about us having a baby. well apparently, I had my period during our stay in pinas..so wala pa din laman. then sabi ng isa namin ninang sa kasal, baket daw hindi ko i-try na magpa-hilot. baka daw kasi mababa ang matres ko. eh naisip ko ok lang naman..walang masama sa hilot. besides yun lang ang chance kasi wala namang hilot sa SG.
then 2nd week namin sa pinas, nag pahanap na ng manghihilot. buti na lang may kilala si nanay. twice ako nahilot. sabi nga, mashado daw mababa ang aking bahay bata. then hindi lang yun, pinakain din ako ni nanay ng "blessed manga", para daw magka-baby na kame. at kung ano-ano pang signs. nanjan ung mapupuan ako ng baby pagka-karga ko sa kanya. *eeww* hehehe
so pag balik namin ng SG, after a week ang sched ko sa OB, but I had it changed can't remember why. in the end, bumalik kame ng Mar 20. the usual i was scanned while I was telling the OB that I am 2 days delayed. *wink-wink* but then she told me that she can't tell yet if I am really pregnant since its too early. pero while lying and looking at the screen, I saw this particular thing in my uterus. OB said it was "fluid". dugo? why fluid not blood? anyway, i had a strange feeling na and yung polyp hindi na visible. *smile on my face*.
but that smile isn't for long, since when we were discussing with her, she was telling na if nde pa rin daw ako buntis, she's suggesting for me to undergo some more tests. what? a test wherein they would insert some chemical(?) and then have me x-ray-ed to check if my fallopian tubes are not taggled or something. scarry. ayoko nga. hello, i'm delayed and i'm expecting some support man lang from her that there is a big possibility that I am preggy. pero as if they are really shocked. kulang na lang sabihin nila, wag kanang umasa. inis. pero in fairness, binigyan naman nya ako ng vitamins, just to make sure.
anyway, i waited a few more days. everyday I am expecting magkakaroon ako. pero at the back of my mind. sana wala..sana wala.. i've never been delayed for the past 1 year. so every day na lilipas, we are both excited na wala pa din. Jeff wanted to me to take the preg test na, 4 days pa lang ata akong delayed. sabi ko sa kanya wait muna kame ng 1 week. just to make sure. kasi ayoko ko syang ma-disappoint. so, we are keeping our hopes moderate. keep on praying na sana ito na yung gift Nya.
So I made a decision, I bought a kit and had PT on my 6th day of missed period, when Jeff already left for work, so he doesn't have an idea. when I peed, seconds lang ata nakita ko na that the lines were forming. positive. yes! yippeee. then when it became more clearer, I am already crying. praising God. God gives miracles talaga. i've been wanting to call Jeff kaso baka biglang umuwi ng bahay hehehe. so I grabbed a clean pad and made a letter for the dad-to-be. enclosed the PT inside. left the letter on top of our dresser. i'm thinking for sure makikita nya yun when he comes home. kaso pasaway, ayaw pumasok ng kwarto that night. ewan ko ba. I was expecting makikita na nya yung letter by 7pm. pero kmusta naman, after dinner pa nya nakita. =D
surprised ang dad-to-be. kasi nde nya alam na nag-PT na ako. we're both happy. we've been waiting for this a looong time. then i called mame, ayun tumitili sa tawa hehe. i know she cried. then jeff called nanay, pero si tatay ang una nyang naka-usap. then si nanay the same tumitili din sa tawa. both mag-kumare ay umiiyak sa tuwa kasi magiging lola na (ulet) sila. hehehe
with my disappointment sa dating kong OB, i opted to look for a new one. good thing nakakita kame ng accomodating and friendly girl-OB dito sa SG. I am 5weeks pregnant when she showed us the scan. liit pa. we're happy to see that little ilo in my tummy. hehe =P
I will be back on Apr 20 for my second checkup, hopefully we'll hear the heartbeat by then. can't wait! Jeff's been talking to my tummy hehe. so for our 3rd anniv, what else can i ask for? sana lang I'll always be healthy para healthy din ang baby namin. I am excited for the next 9mos of journey with my little angel and Jeff on my side.
happy anniversary mahal!
