OMG, I'm Pregnant!

December 22, 2012, Friday


I was already on my second month when I discovered that I am pregnant. I have PCOS (poly cystic ovarian syndrome), thus, missing a period doesn't alarmed me at all. I wasn't able to finish my medication to treat PCOS too, since I've been through different personal problems. But nothing is impossible with God; He finally blessed me with an angel. 

I was totally shaking right after I get the result of my home pregnancy test. It was mixed emotions: happy, nervous, scared, I don’t know, the only thing I was thinking that time was “OMG! Is this for real?” LOL! Right after getting the result, my husband and I rushed at Healthway SM North EDSA The Block, to finally get my first check-up. At first, everything seems okay, the OB gave me Natalbes (Multi-vitamins) and Folic Card (Folic Acid) and advised me to take two glasses of Anmum a day. She also requested me to take few laboratory tests like Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVU), urinalysis and CBC. The TVU was totally awkward and a bit painful; but after seeing my baby on the monitor and hearing the heartbeat, the feeling was priceless! On that same day, I immediately gave a pet name to my baby – Beanie, because the unborn baby on my womb looks like a small bean.

Meet Beanie at 9 weeks and 5 days

After few days, I returned to get the result of the tests, urinalysis and CBC is fine, but the TVU was not okay. I had hemorrhage, so the doctor advised me to have 7 days bed rest. I guess the hemorrhage was due to frequent riding a motorcycle during the time that I am unaware that I am pregnant or maybe because I slipped down the stairs a month before I discovered that I am pregnant.

Thank God that after the 7-day bed rest, I felt better and was able to get back to work.
