It was just a routine check-up last Saturday. The doctor asked me if i still experience some spotting and cramps, and i had to say yes. I laid on the bed to check the heartbeat of the baby. Minutes seemed forever, and we waited in vain. I was having cramps, but i could not remember if i complained to her that day. I had an internal exam, and she saw traces of blood. She also thought that the cervix was a little bit open.
We rushed to the Women’s Health Care Center immediately to have a scan. Roney’s heart was thumping so hard, and i couldn’t breathe.
While waiting for the elevator, we heard a man talking on his cellphone. His wife was confined because she was undergoing a D&C procedure. The embryo didn’t have a heartbeat at 6 weeks. And all i can think was we were almost 13 weeks already!
Every second that ticked while waiting for my turn to have the scan was slower than ever. Then, it was time. The first thing the sonologist confirmed was the heartbeat. It was beating fast and the baby was constantly moving. That was probably the reason why we were not able to get the heartbeat using the doppler instrument.
Despite our relief, Roney was still shaken and his heart beat faster on our way home. Me? I was just so happy that the baby in my tummy is still safe October please come sooner
A month ago, hunny roney asked me if i want another bag for my birthday. I have been teasing him that the last one he gave me seemed to be lonely being a single entity of its class. For me, it was just a tease; something to throw him out of complacency. I am really not a baglady anyway. So, i gave him a different answer each time.
But then, i began thinking that who knows if he would ever have the opportunity to ask me the same question again, or if i would ever have the luxury to choose. And besides, it’s an investment, right? People nowadays buy pre-owned designer bags. Carpe diem!
And, again, i am not really a baghag. So, it took us an hour last Friday (yep, that’s the real reason why i was fully made up! hahaha!) to finally decide which one to buy. We went from one shop to another, then back again because nothing feels right; nothing seems to fit on me. Then, the sales girl finally saw that we were really intent to buy one because we visited her shop five times already. She suggested this one great bag that I really fell in love with. I actually saw it when we went in, but it’s way beyond hunny roney’s budget so i didn’t bother. However, when he saw how my eyes lit up and the curve of my mouth extended beyond my eyes when i tried it on, he just went on, not minding the set ceiling price.
However, since at current time, it is still not officially my birthday, i have not yet opened my gift. But here’s a picture of the paper bag where my real and beautiful bag lies. I am so excited! Yipee!
Ito ay regalo sa akin ng aking kabiyak nitong nakaraang anibersaryo namin. Hindi ako karaniwang babae na mahilig sa bag, at nanghihinayang ako sa mga mamahaling bag. Kaya laking sorpresa na ito ang ibinigay niya. Natutuwa naman ako. Ito ang aking una at sana ay hindi rin naman kaisa-isang bag ( mukhang tama nga ang kasabihang pag nagkaroon ka na nito ay hahangarin mong magkaroon ng isa pa kahit alam mong matagal-tagal pa bago mo ito makakamtan)
Sa limang taong pagsasama naming mag-asawa, ang hindi ko malilimutang tipanan na aming ginawa ay ang pagdiwang namin ng unang anibersaryo kami ay nagpunta sa Hong Kong, dala ang naging matalik naming kaibigan na si Tripod. Mistula kaming magkasintahan sa paglalambingan at paghaharutan. Isang kalokohan na ginawa namin ay nagsalita kami ng animong taga ibang bansang lengwahe, kaya naman inakala ng isang kapwa Pinoy na kami ay loko-loko taga Europa.
Last weekend, we spent our time exploring Pasig Rainforest Park and saw these animals:
BUTTERFLY
RAM
DEER
The Park is so nice. They have a Senior Citizens Park where everything is serene. There is a Butterfly Park and Avis Park. They also have facilities for outdoor activities such as wall climbing and the likes. And of course, there is a Children’s Park where the kids play to their hearts content. Oh, and there is a gym where group exercises are conducted. I would have shared more pictures had my battery not gone out.
In the afternoon of January 13, Tuesday, Lola called me in the office to inform me that Jadon has thrown up the little food that he ate. Roney volunteered to go home early to take care of our son, which i appreciate very much since i was “on duty” that night. I thought that everything would be ok. But the next thing I knew was that i was headed to the ER of The Medical City instead of going home.
we were discharged at past midnight since Jadon was able to retain the milk that he drank.
However, in the afternoon of the next day, Jadon did not eat any food and his poop was water. we feared that he might be dehydrated. we rushed him to the ER again. And this time, he was admitted.
We thought that since he was given dextrose and all, the storm was over. But, we were wrong. He did not pee since the time we were admitted. The doctor advised us to keep him awake until he pees. This should have been an easy task had he been able to do it. When it was already 4 in the morning and my baby has not yet wetted the diaper, the doctor told us that they would expel the urine through catherer. My baby has had trauma in the hospital as it is. So, we asked that he be given more time urinate. Thirty minutes before the deadline, Jadon produced a full cup and we have been changing diapers ever since.
I hope that Jadon would be able to recuperate soon. As his mother, it breaks my heart to see him in this condition.
