Today is my 17th week and 3rd day. Wow! You're really growing inside huh! Your heart beats so fast but we were not be able to hear it though. You were so behaved this time. The doctor advised to have a full ultrasound after 3 weeks to check each and every part of you. I don't know what do you call that kind of scan. Anyway, doctor was happy to see that you are perfectly healthy. She told me that my pregnancy is very healthy. Imagine I gained 1.7 kgs this time, from 45.1 up to 46.8 kgs. It's a good sign according to her.
Told her about my back pain. She said i't s normal at this stage because of the weight that has been added, the pressure is all on my back. She asked me If I drink milk everyday, I said I don't like the taste these past few days. She gave me calcium tabs for a supplement instead in able to lessen the back pain that I'm having. Plus folic, iron and theragran vitamins as well.
Rest is fine. My BP is normal. Urine is normal. Thought I have a UTI becoz of the pain that I'm getting in my lower abdomen, but when they checked it was fine.
Dada enjoyed watching you in the monitor. He says that you look like an alien hahaha! Your head is bigger that's why.

Fine day!
Today is a fine day for me. Although the weather is still annoying but I find it very relaxing, maybe becoz I got what I was craving for - the cured pork (pork tocino). I had it last night and wow I felt like I didn't have it for so many years hahaha!
Tomorrow is my 4th check-up. Hope everything will be fine as always.

Another day
I didn't go to work yesterday. I wasn't feeling well, had a slight nose bleeding (due to the heat) and terrible body pain. But I'm fine now, a lot better than yesterday.
Today I started wearing maternity top, it looks cute on me. That's what my officemates say. Click on the link and find out, LOL!
Tomorrow is my day-off, hope that we will get enough rest tomorrow. Please don't make Mama get up so early to fix your food like last time. I wanna sleep more.

Week 16
Today is my 16th week. Mama had bought some materials for stitching new tops and pants and I started wearing drawstring pants today. I want us both to look good during this stage. Many of my friends say that you will be a girl. But Dada started feeling that you will be a boy, he says becoz I'm too naughty these past few days.
My next check-up will be on the 16th. Can't wait to hear your heartbeat.
