Feeling much better @ 12 weeks

We're so excited to share to all of you the good news that we are gonna have a baby soon!!! :) I'm now at my 12 weeks of pregnancy, almost the end of first trimester, which they say is the hardest part of pregnancy. In my case, I did have the so-called "morning sickness" or should I say all-day sickness. It started a week before I learned I'm pregnant.

I vividly remember it was the first week of March 2012, I was delayed for a week. And my period does not normally get delayed that long. Hubby and I opted to wait for a week before taking the pregnancy test. I tested around 7am of March 11, 2012, and it turned out positive! Or "pregnant 3-weeks" as my digital pregnancy test said. High-tech na pala ngayon! :)

Hubby and I were jumping up and down, I wanted to scream because of overwhelming joy but it was too early and I don't want to wake up my neighbors. Hehehe. Instead I woke up my brother, who was still sleeping in the next room, and shared to him the good news. We were all crying out of happiness! Such a wonderful blessing! :)

We called our family, and my in-laws were very happy to have another baby in the family. My sister-in-law is pregnant too and expecting to give birth in September. Yey! I can hear my parents cry on the other end-of-the-line when I called them to share the news! My sister screamed for about a few minutes, I guess she was too happy to have her nephew / niece soon. :)

From the day I learned I was pregnant, our lives changed completely! My appetite was messed up. I could not eat anything good. I was feeling dizzy, nauseaous, headache, back pain, body pain etc. I was sick most of the time and I had to get a day-off from work almost every week because of pregnancy related discomforts. But as I said, the baby will always have to come first. :)

As I type this blog entry, it's obvious that I am feeling better and almost back to normal. Hopefully, it stays that way. I just hope and pray that we will be safe and healthy all through out. We have family and friends to support us, and we're so excited! :)
