OMG! I'm Pregnant!

Pregnancy isn't that hard to control if its normal. But what if it isn't and you thought it was.

Let me share to you my story...

I was 20 years old when I got pregnant. The first 6 months of my pregnancy was really fine. No problems at all except for the fact that Ive increased weight.But that's not bad in fact a pregnant woman should gain weight of at least 15 pounds.

1-3 MONTHS
I Didn't notice that I'm pregnant. Unless I keep in track of my menstrual cycle. When I thought I was, I bought this over the counter PT(pregnancy test) kit. When you're POSITIVE there would be two lines visible, when you're NEGATIVE there would be only one. But let me give you a warning PTs are not that much accurate because there are also a lot of diseases that can turn out to be a positive result so its best to consult an OB-gyne.

I'm POSITIVE..

In my first month of pregnancy my tummy isn't that much obvious until I reached 4 months. So, before you reached 4 months make sure you bought some maternity clothes and new bras with a cup size larger than your normal. I also notice a clear liquid coming of my vagina, well, that's normal, so you won't have to worry. It's just due the changes happening in your body especially the drastic changer happening to your hormones. In medical terms this is called Leukorrhea. My appetite also increased,and that's where I gained weight.

Some pregnant women would also experience nausea or vomiting. That's normal too. All you have to do is eat small frequent meals especially crackers in the morning. But me I didn't. I started being sensitive to smell and taste. I hate the food from Chowking and I hate the smell of garlic.

I visit my OB once a month and mostly she would weigh me and check the length of my tummy.
She would prescribe me some vitamins, specifically iron, and drink milk two times a day.

I would prefer to you guys to choose ANMUM

She also determined the position of my baby- if his head is below my pelvic bone or above. The findings were that my baby is above so, she told me to exercise-walking. We tried ti identify the gender but it was too early.

NOTE:One thing a hate in pregnancy is my nose getting bigger and having dark pigmentations!like dark skin tones on my legs, neck and armpits!

4-6 MONTHS
There were only a few changes. My tummy starts getting bigger including my weight. So, hypothetically it won't take long until I'll have a hard time standing up from bed.

I started feeling my baby move when I was already 4 months pregnant. It was a weird feeling. It reminded me of those movies where aliens planted their eggs in human's tummies. The movement isn't that much visible but it gets visible after a few more weeks.

Sometimes I could feel my baby hiccuping.

I started visiting my OB for checkup every week.

There was this one time I went to my OB and have an ultrasound and she find out that I'm lacking amniotic fluid. So, she advised me to drink more water. Another finding is that my placenta was ahead more mature than my baby which is not a good sign. So, I,m told to have a rest and stay in bed frequently. But one good news is that my baby is in his proper position and we found out that its a BOY!

7th month

It was night and I had a headache, so I went to my dad to check my blood pressure(my dad' a doctor).

My dad said my BP(blood pressure) is above normal and told me to have a rest .

Early in the morning I was rushed to the Hospital.

I was admitted in the DR room together with other pregnant women...
