This week, in the news

Headline: Fainting spell scandal! While waiting for a ride last Tuesday, I blacked out. How unglamorous! Neil was there to save me, of course (but you don't expect him to haul all 128 lbs of me, do you?) - and a kind man helped him hail a cab to bring me to the Makati Med ER. I regained consciousness in the ER. A shot of medicine in my arm and an ECG later, I was sent home. Darn these dizziness and fainting spells.

Womb action: most number of somersaults ever recorded! Well, am not sure about the numbers part, but the baby looks like he/she's practicing her acrobatic talents in there! I still go "whoa" and "oops" even after a week of endless fetal movements. Is this normal at all? I gotta ask my OB tomorrow. Maybe I just need some ice cream, huh, Neil?

Sidelines...I took out baby photos of me and Neil and tried to imagine how our baby would look like. I still can't imagine. Heehee.

Augh, no pics!

Bad news: I can't upload photos here. Sucks!

I'll figure out something...

(fret fret fret)

Let's see if this works...

Testing if I can "post" photos here. Darn. I wish I can upload via FTP.

Why this blog?

I first thought of writing these down on an actual journal but what the hell -- who am I kidding. I won't have much time (well, I will, but I'd rather spend it sleeping/resting) when I get home from work to actually sit down and write down my mom-thoughts...so here it is, am online again.

Why only now?

Ever heard of first trimester trauma? I'm inventing the term. I was just so out of it ("it" being myself, my life, my surroundings, everything) that I really don't want to recall the first three months anymore. Okay, if anyone's curious about it - one powerful word, then: regurgitate. Major.

So am starting this blog with me at 19 weeks of pregnancy.

=)

Test...

Alrighty....first blog for the mom-to-be...
