My Baby is Here...

My Baby is Here...

Last April 26 at 5:35 in the afternoon I delivered our healthy baby boy. We went to the hospital Friday evening since my contraction is 3 minutes apart. We spend the night at the hospital but been awake almost for the whole night since the nurse asked me to walk around the hospital as my exercise. Saturday morning at 8 o’clock they hooked me up with an IV to induce me again since my cervix is only 2 cm open. And finally at 12 noon, my water breaks and just after 10 minutes my cervix is 9 cm open already which is too late to put me into painless medication. I don’t have any choice but to deliver my baby normal. To deliver a 8.4 lbs and 21 inches long baby without using any painless medication is indeed a tough one! I thought I’m gonna die on that day..it took me 3 hours before the baby comes out. I have been begging to the doctor to do CS since I can’t bare the pain anymore. But right after I asked my mother in-law to offer a prayer, the baby finally came out! The doctor said “ The prayer is so powerful”. She said, if I still don’t have my baby after 15 minutes she’s gonna do CS but luckily I’m a strong woman and didn’t give up. According from her, my baby is not for my size, the reason why my baby got a cone in his head. Good thing the cone disappeared after 24 hours. I am so blessed and happy that I was able to survive the pain, It’s hard to believed to have my baby without using any painless medication. I am also thankful to my husband and to my in-laws who never left me from the time I arrived in the hospital, they’re always there comforting and praying for me. And of course I thank God that our baby is healthy. Thank you friends for all you prayers too. I may not be able to have my baby without your prayers. Above is some of his photos.

Big Mistake..

Big Mistake..

Did you watch American Idol last night? I really feel bad when Brooke forgot her song lyrics and decided to start from the very beginning..I like her a lot especially her personality, I hope she can still make it to the final 5. The judges were a little bit upset but Simon said it was a brave one of doing it. If only she pick the song that she already familiar with, I am pretty sure she won't have that problem..but anyway, at least she was able to finished the song and explained why she did that..whatever happens for me, she is still one of the those talented creatures hehehehehe.

True meaning of LOVE

True meaning of LOVE

THIS TURNED OUT TO BE SO DIFFERENT FROM WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TOBE..IT IS A WONDERFUL WONDERFULMESSAGE AND IF YOU THINK IT HASSOMETHING TO DO WITH 'REAL BOYFRIENDS'YOU WILL BE SURPRISED AT THE END.....ENJOY

Once upon a time there was a girl who had four boyfriends.

She loved the fourth boyfriend the most and adorned him with rich robesand treated him to the finest ofdelicacies. She gave him nothing but the best.

She also loved the third boyfriendvery much and was always showing himoff to neighboring kingdoms. However,she feared that one day he would leaveher for another.

She also loved her second boyfriend.He was her confidant and was alwayskind, considerate and patient withher. Whenever this girl faced aproblem, she could confide in him, andhe would help her get through thedifficult times.

The girl's first boyfriend was a veryloyal partner and had made greatcontributions in maintaining herwealth and kingdom. However, she didnot love the first boyfriend. Althoughhe loved her deeply, she hardly tooknotice of him!

One day, the girl fell ill and sheknew her time was short. She thoughtof her luxurious life andwondered, 'I now have four boyfriendswith me, but when I die, I'll be all alone.

'Thus, she asked the fourthboyfriend, 'I loved you the most,endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Nowthat I'm dying, will you follow me andkeep me company?

''No way!', replied the fourthboyfriend, and he walked away without another word.

His answer cut like a sharp kniferight into her heart.

The sad girl then asked the thirdboyfriend, 'I loved you all my life.Now that I'm dying, will you follow meand keep me company?

''No!', replied the thirdboyfriend. 'Life is too good! When youdie, I'm going to marry someone else!'

Her heart sank and turned cold.She then asked the secondboyfriend, 'I have always turned toyou for help and you've always beenthere for me. When I die, will youfollow me and keep me company?'

'I'm sorry, I can't help you out thistime!', replied the secondboyfriend. 'At the very most, I can only walk with you to your grave .

His answer struck her like a bolt of lightning, and the girl was devastated.

Then a voice called out: 'I'll go withyou. I'll follow you no matter whereyou go.'

The girl looked up, and there was herfirst boyfriend. He was very skinny ashe suffered from malnutrition and neglect.

Greatly grieved, the girl said, 'Ishould have taken much better care ofyou when I had the chance!'

In truth, you have four boyfriends inyour lives:

Your fourth boyfriend is your body. Nomatter how much time and effort youlavish in making it look good, it willleave you when you die.

Your third boyfriend is yourpossessions, status and wealth.Whenyou die, it will all go to others.

Your second boyfriend is your familyand friends. No matter how much theyhave been there for you, the furthestthey can stay by you is up to thegrave.

And your first boyfriend is yourspirit. Often neglected in pursuit ofwealth, power and pleasures of theworld.

However, your spirit is the only thing that will follow you where ever you go. Cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of you that will follow you to the throne of God and continue with you throughout Eternity.

Thought for the day: Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees,you're in the perfect position to pray.

Spoiled Wife:-)

Spoiled Wife:-)

It's Saturday and I'm supposed to be in church but due to my pregnancy, I prefer to just stay at home and relax and sit in my laptop and visit my co -bloggers..Early this morning my husband woke me up with breakfast in bed:-)...he cooked sausages with Cinnamon bread on it and potatoes. And right after we ate, he then rushed to the kitchen and clean his mess and my mess from last night cooking. He clean the counter top of our kitchen, wipe all the furniture's and then lastly, vacuum the floor while me, sitting here in our bed and visiting my friends:-) I asked him if he needs help but he said no, just stay there..Anyway, the doctor told us too to let me stay in bed and don't do anything that can trigger contractions since the baby's head is on the way out and I'm still 37 weeks pregnant. We have to make sure to keep the baby longer than that..that's why I'm here, doing nothing and just waiting for my food..I don't like to be this way though..I honestly don't feel good in my belly anymore, seems like the skin in my belly is giving up, so thin and feels like burning' every time I touch it..

Oh well, the baby worth it..My husband done with his cleaning so I'll guess I have to take shower now since we have to go out in town later..thanks for reading this entry and have a great day!

How Long Do I have to wait??

How Long Do I have to wait??

The last time we visit my doctor, my cervix is still close which means I can't have my baby within this month everybody wants to see my baby now including me and hubby..I am so excited how he looks like. Sometimes I can't sleep thinking about it. My husband is so funny, he tried to talked with my baby yesterday while we're watching shows in TV, it's so funny because when he said " give me five little man " the baby kicks my belly twice! he moves a lot and my belly is waving ug sa ato nagbalud2. We keep laughing because seems like the baby understood what his daddy has been talking about. My husband sang ABC which is really funny because he messed up in the middle of the song We sang together but we both messed up hehehehe. I told him, we need to practice ABC song before our baby will come out.
Anyway, tomorrow is my prenatal check up again. Hopefully my cervix is already open para manganak nako hehehehehe even if my doctor don't want me to have my delivery this month. If you can see my belly, the skin is really thin now. I have lots of stretch marks even if I didn't scrath my belly . My mother in-law always told me" don't worry, your baby worth it"..It really doesn't matter anyway if I have all kinds of stretch marks as long as my baby is healthy and hopefully maliwat sa papa..enough now..I need to eat my breakfast now..ciao!

Good MOrning friends..

I sleep well tonight and thats because hubby don't go to work today due to my prenatal schedule which around 3:15 in the afternoon. You see, everytime hubby goes to work he usually wake uo around 3:00 in the morning adn before he leave he'll kiss and hug me and then call me again when het gets to his office so it takes me a while to sleep back..but today, we both sleep well and just woke up now..I didn't cook anything for our breakfast since he is not use to have one anyway. We might just eat a muffin or maybe dinner rolls with cheese on it. Sounds yummy?? hehehehehehe. Oh well, I'm lazy to cook so no choice..

It's Monday again! I know most us were busy working but for us who work at home as a fulltime housewife monday is just a regular day for us..no need to hurry just to go to work or something. We can sleep whenever we want. All we need to do is to wake up to prepare food for ourselves and later lunch for hubby. Isn't that exciting?? hehehehehe. Anyway, I woke up not so late today and right after i get up from bed, I took my shower and then eat my breakfast so now I am all refresh! It feels good when you smell good early in the morning..

We might see him soon!

We might see him soon!

We just got home from my prenatal check up and so thankful that everything went normal regarding my baby and me. My cervix is not open yet but my baby's head was set already. According from our doctor, the head is pretty low already and by the time I have to deliver my baby's it won't take long for the baby to come out because he is ready and just in the right spot. My due date is on April but the doctor said that we might have it earlier since the baby is all set plus I got lots of contractions now. Now I understand why I peed all the time and why I'm having a hard time so sleep. I gained so much weight already. Before I got pregnant I only weight 70 pounds but now I weight 130 pounds! My husband measured my thighs last night and it shocked me because we have the same size in our thighs!! but i honetly don't care at all, because even since I always underweight and I will do all my best to maintain my size now right after my delivery hehehehehe. The only thing that bothers me now is my big fat belly because i could harly sleep anymore..

Britney's Childhood Secret

Britney's Childhood Secret

I watched Britney's childhood secret and I found it really interesting. Just like us, Britney's family suffer ting poverty during her childhood. She's a country girl lived in a very simple family. She's been joining singing competition and beauty pageant when she was still young that made her life success. In her early age as one of the biggest star in Hollywood has been an inspiration for many young people but every things change after years as a singer. And it get worst until now..so sad that after all the effort to be a big start she wasted it all..anyway, we don't know the reason why she's turning that way. There's lots of expeculation about her life but whatever the reason is, lets just hope that she can correct all her mistakes because everyone deserves second chances. Plus her kids that needs her assistance badly..she's still young and pretty and I'm pretty sure, there are still lots of opportunities for her is she will only decided to do the right thing.

Congrats Ms. Malubay!

Congrats Ms. Malubay!

Did you watch american idol last night? Girls were the one who performed last night and I have been waiting Ms. Malubay to sing on the stage and finally after almost 2 hours of waiting she sang her song " You don't have to say you love me". She sang it really well and her voice is so magical and I'm so happy for her that she pleases all the judges inlcuding Simon we all know how hard to please Simon..if he doesn't like the way you perform on stage or even your outfit, he will really tell you in front of your face which is really embarrassing. I hope she can make it and be the next american idol..I like her personality, small but has amazing talent. Tonight is
elimination and hopefeully she's not one of them. I'm looking forward to hear more of her songs...

Finally!

Finally!

Finally after almost 3 weeks of waiting, the cd's that ordered from BMG arrived yesterday. I am so excited when I opened the cd. I like both the cd's that I ordered ( Jaci Velasques and Carrie Underwood). I have been wanting to have cd from Jaci Velasques, I like all her songs and it really inspires me a lot. I might order another cd from her:-)
Anyway, I'm listening to her songs right now and one of her songs that I really like and keep on playing is " Imagine me without you" and " On my Knees". Her voice is so magical...If you haven't heard that song yet, I suggest you to research online and you will know how wonderful that song is..:-)

Got Colds:-(

Got Colds:-(

It's not fun at all when you have colds..it causes headaches and you can't sleep well just like last night. I'm having a hard time to sleep because I can breath well plus my huge belly makes me unconfortable too! I drink lots of water already and hopefull water will works for me. My body started to be so sensitive when I got pregnant since like I easily got colds and I don'y like it because I don't want to be sick while carrying our first baby. I pray that God will protect our baby and that he won't get affected by his mom being sick...

I'm sick..

I'm sick..

Last Saturday night, i have been hospitalized for 6 hours. I started to feel bad around 2 in the afternoon but I tried to ignore it co'z I don't want to think that i'm sick or something. We do shopping and groceries inspite of being sick. I didn't tell my husband until on our way home. I felt worst when we are on our way going home which is around 6 or something. I went to bed right away when we got home and hubby is the one who organized our groceries. But after 1 hour of being in bed, i felt worst. My husband called my mother in-law and ask what should he do, mom said that I have to take some meds but i refuse to drink it, afraid that it might affect to our baby. What I did, i took hot bath but still I feel the same. Around midnight, I can't handle the pain anymore in my body. My head is aching so badly as well as my body. I could even hardly breath and my body is so hot. My husband called again to my in-laws and they said I need to be in the hospital asap. So we went to the hospital midnight with my in-laws and my body temp is really dangerous for a pregnant women like me, its 104! no wonder why my head is aching relaly bad. They give me some fluids ( iv) for 5 hours and a tylanol and thank God I feel better after 1 hour drinking the meds. We went home in the morning since I feel better alreay. I'm glad we went to the hospital or else I can't have that treatment and my body's temp might affect to our son. Now everythings back in normal..I feel better and hoping I won't have that again..according to the doctor I am dehydrated that caused me to have fever..plus flu and fever is so rampant nowadays. Friends, you really need to take of yourself so you won't experience the same thing..

She's not Smart ENough:-)

She's not Smart ENough:-)

Last night we're watching " Are you smarter than a 5th grader" the contestant is really smart she was able to answer all the question without using some of her 5th grader classmates. She already won half a million and decided to go for a million question but sad to say she asnwered it wrong and leaving with 25 grand only! That's really sad if she only decide not go on, then she can leave much more higher that what she got. You can't blame her anyway because the subjects of her 1 million question is her favorite subjects in school and it's really tempting to go for a million question. I really thought she can win a million.. DO you watch that show too?

Feel Fresh!

Feel Fresh!

I feel good today simply because I took shower already which is so seldom for me to do it hehehehe. It doesn't mean that I don't take shower for a week ok, It's just that today I took shower early in the morning! I usually take shower late in the afternoon or during night time I feel so fresh and ready to rock my world! hehehehehe. But it's almost time for me to cook lunch so I guess I have to hurry up! I planned to cook chicken adobo today because hubby loves it! and thats a good thing for me, because I can easily make that dish! See you guys later..

I like Pineapple!

I like Pineapple!

Do you like pineapple? I bet you are, and so do I. One thing I like about this fruit is that, it’s so juicy and of course it good for the digestion of your stomach. It's full of vitamin C which we need it badly to stay strong and healthy. My husband don't like to eat pineapple before because it causes numbness in his tongue but since i came here, he likes eating it because I'm the one who peeled the pineapple and it terms of peeling it, I clean really good. It takes me a while to peel the pineapple because I always make sure I removed all the eyes and also the hard part inside of the fruit. The secret to not feel any numbness in eating pineapple is to peel is to well and make sure you removed all the eyes...( we call it eyes in pinas) hehehehe. Anyway, if you don't like eating pineapple you better start eating now, I suggest you to buy the fresh one and peel it by yourself. Adios!
