Polyp

Today we had our monthly check-up with our OB. Michelle is on her 3rd month of pregnancy. So far so good except last night. Michelle feels very bad last night that she can hardly sleep. It seems that he over eaten and the food did not digest properly. At 2:00am she woke up and vomitted. She somehow felt better but cannot sleep in a straight position so she decided to sleep in the blue chair.
During our check-up today, the doctor said that Michelle has Polyp. We are totally clueless what Polyp means. Expalained to us that it is a small tumor that could become a cancer. Since it is still small (early stage) she removed it already. Michelle said that i was very painful. But atleast now we have a peace of mind with its removal. God is really so good. He always provides to our needs.

Midnight snack

It's been a month since I've been waking up at midnight to give Michelle a midnight snack. We've been doing this to avoid her having Nausea or Morning Sickness. So far its been very helpful and effective.

Yesterday we tried not to wake up at midnight for the morning snack, since we read that Nausea only happens on the first trimester of pregnancy. And I'm happy to know that this morning she is still normal. She did not experience any vomiting. Yahoooooooo!

But lately, Michelle starts to eat a lot, which I think the reason behind is the they (Michelle and the baby) were both eating. I can't wait to see my baby. :)

Preggie Pop

A candy drop which could make a expectant mother feel better when she is experiencing morning sickness. My wife Michelle is having a hard time with her morning sickness. Searched for a solution in the internet and found out that a candy called Preggie Pop could make her feel better. I went to glorietta and trimona to look for preggie pop but to no avail. Luckly someone is comming home from the US, we bought 4 packs. We got it today, it cost almost $5 per pack. Michelle tried tried it and she said that it really works. Eating preggie pop really makes her feel better.

Baby's heartbeat

Yesterday my wife had her second ultrasound. We went to New World Laboratory to have a TVS ultrasound. While waiting for her name to be called. She is speechless because she is very nervous. She's very afraid of the TVS ultrasound for it hurts based on her first TVS two weeks ago. In the span of 1 hour, she went to the washroom 3 times.

When our turn was called, all the nervous disappear after seing the fetus in the monitor. We also saw the heartbeat of our baby. Im so happy to know that our baby is normal. He have a 152bps. He is now 7 weeks and 1 day old in Michelle's womb.

Here's the picture of the ultrasound
