Baby Story.

I'm sure you'd like to know how did it all happen kan?

Well, like all other stories, my period came late, like 2 weeks kinda late. Being that my menstruation cycle had gone haywire for a bit after I got married, I decided to just take a chill pill and wait for the red flag to come. In the mean time, I was forever hungry, constantly finding food to munch, became a binger, literally, restless and always tired, wait no.. make that exhausted. My husband was always asking me to take the pregnancy test but I politely declined every time. It's not that I didn't want to know, I just didn't like the idea of "false alarms", just like what I experienced in the previous months.

So one day, my eldest cousin lectured me into the effects of ignoring the baby's existence (if it does exists) and its needs of various proper supplements, vitamins yadayada. It was then that I realized that it had been more than 14 days late and they (Hashley and my cousin) were right. I must check pronto.

Hashley was out when I decided to do this. Texted him to get the pregnancy test kit. Went to bed and the next morning came. As much as I try to remain calm, I was anxious to the t! Took the test and ... tadaa, double bars!

Hashley quickly said, "Sayang, you pregnant la."
I went, "Tak kot .. maybe tipu benda ni.. maybe I should check again during lunch break.."
Hashley "Okay, tapi you memang pregnant.." (with a face excited tapi trying to tahan ehehe)

At lunch, I bought 2 more pregnancy kits. One was Clearblue, the other Dip and Tell. Clearblue showed the "+" (positive) sign and the latter showed a negative result. Hah! Still in doubt, I was.

We then decided to just head on to the clinic for a proper check up after work and long story cut short, I am pregnant. In fact, 6-7 weeks pregnant when we found out. Hello, dah nak masuk 2nd month! That's like 7 months away from labour. Haha (c'mon, it's every woman's fear and excitement altogether :))

When we got home, I told my mom, my sister and Bibik of the result. My sister went crazy, jumping up and down, my mom was too happy I have no idea how to describe her face. Hehe. Others were equally happy and gave us their prayers too.

Hashley and I decided that it's best to pay the gynae for a visit and a proper check up. We went to DSH to meet up with my mom's gynae who's now my gynae, did the ultrasound, was consulted on what to eat, what not to eat, what I can do and what I should avoid doing etc. Oh, the gynae confirmed that I was 6 weeks pregnant and I'm due end of July :) I was given Folic Acid, told to drink 1 glass of full cream milk (at least milk) everyday and most of all, to avoid sushi. I was like, sushi? No wayyyyyyyyyy. I love sushi! How to refrain from eating sushi for 9 months?? But for baby's sake, I will try my best *amin*

Went back home, feeling so surreal over the news, elated yet anxious. Aaahh it's like all emotions crumbled up into one. All I could think of was I can't thank Allah enough for this rezeki. This is something that no money can buy. Hanya Allah can give this to you. I pray that we will be safe through out this entire journey. May I become the best mom that my baby can ask for, insya Allah :)
