Today is really a bad day for me. Headache wouldn't leave me. I was even feeling dizzy early in the morning. Guess, it's because of the bad humid weather here. Didn't eat lunch well too.

Glad to know you're fine!
18th July 2005
Just finished my 3rd prenatal check-up this morning and everything is in good condition. No more doubts and fears. I didn't have to repeat my rubella test 'coz there was no reason to do that. My friends were right, there was nothing to worry about. I am totally relieved!
Looks like I'll be doubled my normal figure before delivery. This time I gained 1.1 kg. and now weighing 45. 1 kgs. BP is normal @ 110/70.
I had another ultrasound. That was a great moment! You were moving around, hahaha! Dada was amazed to see you moved. Your heart beats so fast, but we would only be able to hear it on my next visit.
Two vitamins were given to me today, Iron and Folic. My doctor advised me to eat small amount of meals throughout the day and not to sleep right away after dinner, lol!
We're both very happy to know that everything is fine and in healthy condition. From there, we went to the Church and thanked Him for all of the blessings we have been receiving.

Week 13
16th July 2005
I'm on my second trimester and still gas bloated. I get terrible headache once in a while and the worst of all is the breast pain that really worries me sometimes.
It's been almost a week now that I feel restless in between 2am and 5am. The fact that Dada comes from work between those hours makes me think that you want to have a bonding with Dada. Funny coz it's too early for that I guess, but that's how I feel!
This morning I felt like throwing up and am not in the mood to go to work. I didn't really want to get up but I had to.
It's my 3rd prenatal check-up on Monday. I hope that everything is fine.
In the meantime, I am attaching here a snap shot of my tummy, guess it's grown bigger than my normal flat figure.

I feel better!
I feel better now. A friend just told me there's nothing to worry about. She's an experienced nurse so I believe her and must have consulted one of their doctors. She explained that my lab test report means that I was exposed to this virus before and my body produced antibodies to protect me from not getting the same virus again that's why it turned out positive. The only danger is when I get the virus during pregnancy. I was really wondering coz I didn't have any of the symptoms during my early weeks.
But I guess my reaction was normal. I think every pregnant woman worries that something might go wrong. I don't wanna lose you in any way. We've been waiting for you...
At least, I'm a bit relaxed now. But I guess I will be completely relieved once I have this test repeated on Monday.
In the meantime, I will do the best thing for you my angel and keep myself away from worries!
