Baby meet the grandparents!

Me and Gelo got to inform our families about the baby already. They were all surprised and on Gelo's side they we're all excited since it will be their 2nd apo in the Belano's side. On the other side, I got the shocked and surprised reaction from the Ruiz'. As expected it was mixed emotions since they really have no idea that I was carrying a baby ( no morning sickness,was asleep most of  the time due to night shift, was still able to do household chores,my tummy is big which makes no difference co's I'm mataba)

What a relief, no more secrets! It's going to be a new chapter for both families. My parents are going to be grandparents now. :)

Went to meet my cousins Bless and Andy last Saturday @ their new resto D' Amburger Gastropub in Gillmore. I got teary eyed announcing it to Bless (hehehe! tears of Joy). I'm just happy that our lives has grown into a good one and our dreams are finally coming true. *hugsies* More so that we got fed with their porcupine chicken and crabmeat mac n cheese. Yummy!Next weekend ulit!


Then we spent last Sunday with the Belano clan in Las Pinas, they were all nice and accomodating. Thank you for welcoming me and my baby in your family! :) More makukkulit kids in the fam!


Thank you Lord for giving us a wonderful and loving families!


Love you baby,

.hello baby Ruiz-Belano(it's nice to finally see u).

April 14, 2012- We went to The Medical City after my shift and had my 1st ultrasound with Dra. Pili - Lopez. Finally we get to see our precious baby.. so cute..so little and delicate. The doctor said it was "malikot" when she was taking the measurements and heart rate, and when Gelo stepped in to see the baby it behaved and stayed still showing it's face,hands,feet,body,back and umbilical. Awwww! :) We're a family now! The more I'm excited to share this blessing to others!

Everything is normal, baby's heart rate is 164bpm.

I'm 10 weeks and 7 days pregnant as of today.

No morning sickness just a lot of cravings as days goes by.

Craving for sampalok, inihaw na pusit, grapes, baked salmon, and sour candies.

I'm having longer sleep because I get tired easily.

Baby bump is showing, bought stretchable denim and loose tops already. :)

Spent the weekend with Gelo. Thank you sweetness for all the support.

Thank God for all the wonderful bleassings I just hope and pray that my family will be as happy as we are! I know they would! :) Especially when they see that my baby is sooo cute!! Lookie!

Love you baby,

Mommy Rian

.2 months delayed.

My LMP was Feb.1, 2012. I regularly have my period monthly. I am also taking note of all the specific dates and events within my menstrual cycle using my handy iTouch. Then here comes March 1, 2012, wherein I was scheduled for a follow up check up due to my UTI. The doctor has prescribed an antibiotics for me with the warning that this may not harm the baby since she was considering that I was pregnant. Then it got in to me that I might be?! since I never experienced any delay in my mensuration. One day at the mall I suddenly got nauseated and vomitted, I just rested for a while and I was back into shape thinking it was just a side effect from the antibiotics that I was taking. Weeks of waiting and still I have no period . I informed Gelo about it and we decided to try a home pregnancy test kit, first time in my life to have been in this kind of situation. I was scared at first on what the result will be.. then after a minute of wait lines have showed indication that I was +positive. I showed Gelo and we hugged and I was holding back my tears.

A week after, I went to training not drinking coffee, distancing myself from smoking workmates during breaks, craving for different foods, etc. Then my workmates noticed and so I told them that I might be pregnant. They were very supportive to the point of even accompanying me to buy another home pregnancy test. After the 2nd test- Confirmed! I was really pregnant :) And so they started calling me "buntis". It was heartwarming that they are taking care of me and supporting me with my cravings.

On the other hand I was bothered with the thought of "how am I going to tell my friends and family". So I kept discreet having only Gelo and my workmates know about- for now. So Gelo and I decided to have an OB check up just to confirm my pregnancy status. I was able to have some labs done and got prescribed of all the vitamins and minerals that I'd be needing during this pregnancy. I was already 8 weeks and 3 days pregnant at that time. We got excited and happy since we really wish we could have my our own child someday and now it's here :)

9 weeks of pregnancy - I am craving for more foods be it pizza, mangoes, singkamas, sinigang na hipon, mais con yelo, and more. I can't wear my skinny jeans anymore and opted to wear leggings instead. I am too sensitive and emotional. To the point that me and Gelo experience misunderstanding often. I am so jealous and paranoid. I cried a lot on small things and feel bad easily. (making Gelo the ultimate absorber). Maybe because my parents and sisters doesn't know yet. It's making me more anxious. Well I have plans of telling them once I got my Ultrasound result. (which will be this Saturday :)

That's it for now... I'm getting sleeppy again.. time for my nap before I go to work...

Love you baby,

Mommy Rian
