I'm into my 6th week already and I'm starting to feel more queasy and tired. I feel so tired and sluggish most of the day that it takes double the effort to bring my body from one place to another. I've also had these food cravings, the latest of which was for tom yum soup. Thank goodness Lucky Me! already has it's version as there are no Thai restaurants in the area. I've also been craving for Starbucks' Belgian waffle but when hubby went there they didn't have any. Good thing I wasn't craving for it that badly. I've also been having this weird aftertaste everytime I eat.
We're scheduled to visit the OB next week. We want to try this new OB in Asian who's also a lamaze advocate because my old OB honors my HMO card only in her Makati clinic while this new one accepts Medicard in her Asian clinic. With the prices of gas, parking, and toll, it really is not practical to travel all the way to Makati for my checkup. I just hope I'd like this new OB enough as I can be very picky with my doctors ; ) I also can't wait to see how the baby is through ultrasound. Hopefully, the doctor will give me the go signal to have one by next week.

Finally!
(Note: I'm reposting this from my other blog.)
We’re pregnant again with Baby #2! We’ve been waiting and praying for months, even years, for this moment, and we’re ecstatic! When my period was delayed for 3 days already, hubby and I decided to check if we were, indeed, pregnant. We didn’t want to get our hopes up because my cycle can be quite erratic. The pregnancy test revealed 2 lines but one of the lines was still a bit faint, so we told ourselves to take one more preg test today, just to confirm. Now it’s official, the two lines are clear enough. I have yet to visit my OB though.
We already told Zoe that she’s going to be an ate. I’m just not sure if she comprehends what that means coz when I told her there’s already a baby inside my tummy, she was dubious because my tummy wasn’t big daw. Kids…And when we asked her if she likes a baby brother or a baby sister, she puts out two of her fingers and says, “I want both.” Oh my.
Right now it’s still too early for morning sickness, although I feel a bit more woozy lately, and I’ve been experiencing some cramping. I’ve also been craving for Chowking’s green mango with Chinese bagoong, hehe. I’ve also been resisting that cup of coffee, buti nalang there’s such a thing called decaf. It’s the taste I’m after anyway. Hope you’d include me in your prayers for a safe and worry-free pregnancy. Expect more pregnancy-related posts in this blog : )
