11 month Update

Here it goes another month had passed and it's almost a year since I delivered my miracle baby. His 11 months now and time flies indeed. Yanis is doing great. His a smart boy. I am lucky and blessed to have him in my life. No greater feeling than to be a mother of an angel. Despite the sleepless nights, no matter how tiring my days could be, seeing him with his smile and laughter can take all of it. There's nothing to compare the joy he brings to my life.

His so mobile during photo session. I took this photo with so many tries since he cant sit still. I am glad I got at least a few good ones. The thing with him, every new thing he finds it amusing and likes to touch and feel it. You can't have him seat and relax. His very active little boy.

He doesn't have any full grown teeth yet. His bottom tooth is still peaking. I thought by this time it will come out but it didn't. I still love the toothless gummy smile. I don't worry so much. The doctor told me not to worry about it.

He does still cruise by the furniture and walls. His afraid getting off balance. I tried to check on him so he can practice walking alone but instead he will just sit. His not confident yet. Well, due to the fact he had fall a few times and it scared him. I hope one of these days he will try and do it. I know it will be fast when it happen. I am not sure if I can get in time for photos lol..

The second week of my Preemie ( 36 weeker )

I know I posted today simultaneously. I forgot to post the first week video last week. Even so, I hope you could be entertained by this.

The second week was a breeze for us with my husband. Though we didn't get much sleep because we constantly check Yanis body temp, we did get down to regulate this temperature. He was doing good and the progress we saw in him was fantastic.

Here's the recap:

The first week of my Preemie ( 36 weeker )

This was a project that my husband wanted. A 30 days video of our son. Majority of the speeches, comments, interaction over video was done by my husband. With so little time and no help from family, it's hard for me to edit and post something. Now that baby Yanis is getting longer sleep, I have some time now to create and hopefully posts his progress week by week. I still have a lot of editing until I can get to the present happening but in the mean time, I hope you will take time to check out this video.

The day Everything seems Possible - Labor and Delivery 9/17/14

Sorry for not updating for months. Being a new mom is a lot of work. Not to mention I don't have anybody to support my physical needs except my dear husband who's trying his best as much as he can. We already down to our routine now and so I have time for myself. Time is not that many I tell you, but even just a few minutes from here and there it make up for something.

So I already posted on what happen the day I have my son. I just finally made a video. I've got plenty of clips and with such little time on my hand, editing and arranging is a bit of a handy task. I just choose those that are pretty much necessary, significant and memorable.

Hope you enjoy!

9 Weeks 4 Days Pregnant

An update for the week, I feel terrible with nausea and heartburn. It's an all day thing. I don't have only morning sickness but it's any time of the day. Me working only part time of 4 hours did help me gain more rest and I believe it somehow helped improved the baby's growth.

I had my ultrasound with Dr. K and I thought it's not going to be the last but we are released. He transferred me to my old Dr. I was so relief that finally there's already hope that baby munchkin will be alright. Baby measured 8 week and 6 days because he said 4 days behind. The heartbeat won Dr. K because it was beating at 179. The good thing is all the concern was gone only that have to watch the growth and progress.

This is the last picture of him at the fertility clinic.. 3D baby, yes we can see it all. So happy that munchkin is getting close to normal. 

When I left Dr. K told me about the dosage for vitamin B6 and Unisom. I took a bit more of the dosage as what he recommended that was a mistake but I will never going above beyond what the label say. But I feel it was alright I read few people that took the same dosage like I did and they were all fine and delivered a healthy baby. The unisom I took last night was wonderful. For the first time, I was able to sleep straight. But I told myself that I will only take the pill when my body needs it and when I am at my worst. I don't want to be independent on it as long as I feel okay I will stay off from any pill.

I don't still feel good, but a little much better than yesterday minus the vomiting. It's a bit comforting but the pressure on my stomach is very uncomfortable. They say the sicker you are the better, it will come out a healthy baby. I hope that baby munchkin will grow more and on tract in the next few weeks.

5 Weeks 3 days Pregnant

I am writing right now at work. I tried several ways not to feel so bad but my heartburn and bloating is giving me problems right now. I don't have anything to complaint but I am happy that this is what's happening I just don't want to get it worst since today is Valentines Day. I want to at least celebrate something later on. If it gets worst, of course I have to cancel our dinner date.

Symptoms & Changes:
Heartburn. Bloating. I don't really feel great. My energy level is on average but I am a little tired at work. My bras are getting tight. I feel like going to puke but try to think other things not to urge to do it. It's hard to hold it while you are at work. Boobs are getting bigger and fuller. Hmmmm! Unbotton pants but use belt for support. Acnes not so great but only few. I gained 1 lb. AF like cramps but dull. I always check in the bathroom for discharge but thankful nothing to record to get alarmed.

5 Weeks Pregnant

Feb 11,

So how do I feel today? I was a little bit worried. I didn't get much sleep last night. I woke up like 3 am due to hot flashes. My body is weird. I could easily get cold and easily get hot. My temperature is rising like crazy that it's hard to sleep at night. I don't mind it all. Actually I am enjoying it because I know my babies are telling me to not worry is just part of my body getting used to the change.

I got up when my alarm clock rang at 6:35. When I walked i felt there's a sudden discharge under and I was like oh no please no.. When I checked, it was light brown discharge. The color is too light for a brown nor red. I was relieved but at the same time kind of worried. I am still early on pregnancy and I don't want anything to happen this time. I have been extra careful of lifting and doing stuff. But I didn't really do anything in the house except lay down most of the time or relax on the couch because hubby doesn't want me to cook. I know his been tired. His been doing this since Jan 21st and I salute him for taking care of me. But at times I help him at minimum speed and doing light stuff.

As for symptoms goes: I have nausea today while I was at the shower, dull cramping, itchy tingling breast, my breast are getting big lol I think I have elevated to 1 cup my bras are getting tight. No food cravings yet. Tired a little bit. I feel that my energy level this week is much better than last week. I guess with all the worries I have I think it drained me. Anyway, so far so good.
