ob trip..
so far so good. everything's ok with the baby. just got a little stressed and my uterus has gone tense. so was advised to drink meds for a week to relax my uterus and back to the ob for another check up.
in other news...
i'll be on a bit of a blog leave since i have to attend to some matters and would require a lot of my time. so check back once in a while na lang. but don't forget to leave some love in my tag board. =)
promise, i'll be back soon. =)
i'm off to my ob today.. for an unplanned check up.
my lower abdominal area and my back has been hurting since last night for reasons i don't know. this morning i thought the painwould just go away and it might be just gas. but it has been a bit bothering me after i have eaten my lunch. actually the pain became worse while i was having lunch. this time i knew the pain wasn't in my tummy but where the baby is. as much as i am trying to calmly writing this entry, i'm a nervous wreck deep inside.
as much as i want to lessen my absences, this is unavoidable. this is concerning my baby already. so there's no choice.
just waiting for my dad to come and fetch me.
i hope after seeing my ob, everything would be ok and just a little rest would be needed...
don't worry, i'm ok. i hope the baby is too...
sing or play this song to kyle and he's off to dreamland...
have a listen here:
kyle's lullaby
even i love this song. such a soothing aura especially after a tiring day. =)
artist: Isreal Kamakawiwo ole
his ukelele version of somewhere over the rainbow/what a wonderful world can be heard in the Finding Forrester soundtrack..
and the lyrics, of course:
Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooo... Oooo... Oooo...Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooooooo... Oooooooo...
Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high,
And the dreams that you dreamed of, Once in a lullaby.
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly,
And the dreams that you dreamed of,
Dreams really do come true.
Someday, I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where trouble melts like lemon drops,
High above the chimney top,
That's where you'll find me.
Oh, somewhere, over the rainbow, bluebirds fly,
And the dreams that you dare to.
Oh why, oh why can't I?
Well, I see trees of green and red roses too,
I'll watch them bloom for me and you.
And I think to myself: What a wonderful world!
Well, I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white,
And the brightness of day.
I like the dark and I think to myself:
What a wonderful world!
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky,
Are also on the faces of people passing by.
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, " I...I love you!"
I hear babies cry, and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more than we'll know.
And I think to myself: What a wonderful world!
Someday, I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where trouble melts like lemon drops,
High above the chimney top,
That's where you'll find me.
Oh, somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high.
And the dreams that you dare to,
Oh why, oh why can't I..?
don't tell me that this smile won't make your day...
took this picture when i was putting kyle to sleep. then i had the urge to check my phone which woke him up and so i thought to take a photo of kyle and he was surprisingly game for the photo. with all out smile pa kahit antok na antok na. basta talaga may camera noh... hehehe
i just rea;ized that it's exactly 18 days until my 25th birthday... 25!!! a quarter of a century!!
it's madness... mad and crazy and and and... i don't know! ok now, suddenly the world seems so much bigger and there's a lot to do.
25!! can you believe that? i've been living in this funny, crazy, messed up world for 25 years!
yeah, can you see i'm panicking??
from this day until my birthday, i will remain 25 years old! forever...
i have to come up with my wish list soon... teehee!!
lock and key
what a little smart boy!!
having fun with his little noise maker out of a tissue holder thingie ^_^
you'll know who the nazi is if you're a fan of grey's anatomy...
anyway, i got a funny hirit from her since i have been experiencing a lot of weird looks lately. which i noticed when we were at a mall last saturday and i was still wearing my normal clothes although my belly has been a bit obvious already. the irritating part was i caught a few stares from other people, particularly those teeny bopper kiddies. their looks were saying something like this: " ang kapal naman, ang laki laki naman ng tummy masikip pa rin ang suot"
well bwahahaha to them then.
so while hearing mass, an idea came. i just have to find someone who can do it... and i thank those teeny bopeer kiddies for this idea. i will create a shirt that says:
bakit may mga tao na sadyang walang pake sa rules? sa building kasi namin, bawal mag yosi sa fire exit pero naman, lagi na lang kami nakakaamoy ng yosi dun sa may fore exit na malapit sa area namin. and proven naman ng mga security guards dito sa building namin na meron ngang mga ganun pero may ginawa ba sila? wala! tuloy pa rin ang mga nagyoyosi a few floors below and above ours. mga call center kasi. minsan wala nang regard sa mga rules. porket may baong pekeng accent eh ganun na lang sila umasta. (no offense sa mga nagtatrabaho sa mga call centers pero sa totoo lang may mga ka uri kayong mga walang modo. porket nag train para magkaroon ng accent kala mo na kung sinong mga magagaling. san naman ang tungo ng career nyo pag nag resign kayo o kaya ma-retrench? kamusta naman yun? san na kayo dadalhin ng mga yabang at accent nyo?)
anyway, back to the yosi thing... aminado ako, smoker ako. pero i make sure naman na to smoke in areas that are designated. hindi lang basta-basta kung saan lalo na kung public place. nakakahiya rin naman sa mga non smokers. tulad ko ngayon na non smoker. i truly appreciate those smokers na may respect din sa mga non smokers. alam nila kung san sila lulugar. tsaka alam nila ang tamang pag buga (meron ba nun?) basta yung hindi direct sa mukha ng tao at as much as possible not in the direction ng may tao. at least kahit paano eh maiiwasan ang pag punta ng usok sa tao. sorry na lang kung mag iba ang direction ng hangin. mahirap na ma-control yun.
kahit naman nasabihan ko na ang mga guards dito, wala rin silang magawa kundi tignan ang mga upos at dulo ng yosi na naiwan sa mga hagdanan ng mga salarin. mahirap lang talaga silang mahuli. kahit na ang lakas mag echo ng staircase na yun, wala kang maririnig na ingay. mga sneaky little boys and girls ang mga yun. naisip ko rinkung hindi lang mga taga call center ang mga gumagawa nun, what if mga professionals pa. mga matataas ang position at trabaho, hindi ba mas nakakahiya yun? lalabas na wala silang breeding at kulang sila sa courtesy.
mahiya naman di ba na mag yosi sa loob ng building na centralized ang air con at siyempre hindi agad nawawala ang amoy ng yosi sa lugar.
haaay... kakahiya lang talaga. sa totoo lang
*bow*
kyle's first picture:
kyle was i think 5 months old in the pic. so his features were more prominent. dyan pa lang gwapo na. pano pa ngayon? ay grabeh! haha
and our second baby's first picture...
notice anything? mana ba kay kuya sa pose? hehehe
medyo scary pa ang itsura ni baby since 8 weeks old pa lang siya dyan and super close up siya. and i can't wait for the next ultrasound. this time to see if our baby's a girl or boy. but i'm hoping for a girl. teehee!
been bloghopping while waiting for aishi's text that he's going to pick me up and i've seen a lot of people into digiscrapping. looks like an interesting hobby to do using the computer and being online. and i have seen how creative people get using pictures of their loved ones or any special occasion in their lives.
oh how i env them. how i wish i was that hardworking. how i wish i could spare moments in my hectic mommy duty to do that. how i wish i had a faster computer at home. how i wish our internet connection's faster.
it's so amazing seeing their lay outs. imagine just using photoshop as your base program and you can come up with those amazing results? wow.
if i had the time and the money i would be into that as well. but then life has a different plan for me i guess. and really, i'm much better off, keeping my memories the way i want them to be. in my own little way..
sorry drama mode lang. hehe
got bored with the black background of my blog so i decided to tweak it a bit. please, pardon the look for now since i'm in the process of figuring out how it should properly look like. if there's anyone out there willing to help me out with the layout and codes etc... i would gladly give you the source code and it's up to you to make it more presentable. sorry i can't pay you but for sure you will get due credit for making my blog look cool.
so, drop me a line, IM me, email, whatever. i just need your help. hehehe
thanks!!
Start of the BER months na... less than a month to go and birthday ko na. and i'm going to be a quarter of a century old. shucks! of course, my age would stop there forever! bwahahaha!
i should definitely get my own flash drives so that i can do work at home, if i have the time...
kyle's growing up to be a really smart kid. although i'm still waiting for him to speak more words other than dada, dede, mama, pampa, didi, daddi, there, baba, babay... when can i hear those adult words? sorry was just being impatient.
happy to say that baby baby bear bear's doing good. not that prominent yet for people to realize i'm carrying a 4 month old baby in my belly. hihihi and thank god wala pang nasasayang na damit ko. although i wish i can shop at sm. their materinty clothes are so cute!! nasa uso and can be worn even after you give birth! mura pa!
i gained 3 pounds! yey!!
steve "croc hunter" is dead... read it here: CRIKEY! wawa naman siya noh? poor wife and kids...
lately kahit BER months na, bakit ang init pa rin?? not that preggy ako pero normal people around me are complaining also of the heat. mas matindi pa siya sa summer heat ha. ang hirap tuloy matulog sa gabi..
instead na food ang cravings ko, i'm more on craving books and other reading materials. nabuhay ang bookworm! yey!
i sure hope tuloy na tuloy na ang wedding namin next year. next on the agenda, visit the church we chose and prepare the reservations... then the guests, then the reception and food, then the gowns, then the cake/souvenir, then the invitations... and a whole lot of preparations hehe
so there's a few tidbits and chunks.. =)
ang sama lang ng loob ko ngayon. lahat naman tayo may mga bibig para masabi ang mga gusto natin pero may mga ibang tao talaga na sadyang ayaw gamitin ang silbi ng kanilang mga bibig. kahit ilang taon na ang pinagdaanan mo at halos alam na nila kung saan mahahanap ang mga nunal sa katawan mo, minsan, hindi mo pa rin sila kilala.
sila pa naman ang nagsabi na importante ang communication sa isang pagsasama. hindi lamang pag-aasawa ang pinaguusapan dito peor ang pagsasama ng lahat bilang kapamilya. pero bakit ganun, sadyang sila pa ang hindi gumagawa ng mga sinasabi nila. set by example ba.
tapos eto at may maririnig ka pa sa ibang tao. sa iyo lang ayaw magsabi, pero sa iba. dirediretso ang mga sumbat at reklamo. masakit lang sa loob kasi maririnig mo naman na madali naman silang kausap at kung may kailangan sila, hindi sila mahihiyang humingi ng tulong. pero hindi pala... lokohan lang pala. sa iba ko pa talaga malalaman... masakit...
sawa na ako umiyak. sawa na akong magmukmok na lang sa isang sulok. pero dahil sa mabait ako, papalampasin ko ang nangyaring to. pero pag naulit uli, hindi ko na alam kung ano ang pwede ko gawin. san pa ako kukuha ng lakas para kayanin to?
buhay nga naman...
so far so good. baby and i are having the grandest time. as long as kuya kyle's not that playful especially when we're lying in bed and i'm putting him to sleep. he has this habit of putting his feet on top of me to make him sleep better and usually he places it on top of my tummy. so poor baby... but there are times that he's aware that there's a little baby growing inside mommie's tummy which he gladly kisses and laughs playfully after. one of my favorite moments i must say :)
so about our little baby baby bear bear... ( kyle's baby bear kasi). i'm feeling a little kick here and there during quiet moments but for now, it feels like little bubbles in my tummy or the impending feeling of passing gas. hehe but then it never happens so i know that was baby doing some excercises in my belly. the only complaint i have during this time is the frequency of going to the loo. when i was pregnant with kyle, i experienced this "incident" when i was on my last trimester. it's a bit baffling now that every hour or so i have this urge to pee. hassle on my part especially if i'm in the groove of doing my work which is very rare haha).
so anyway, here's what babycenter says about little baby baby bear bear...
How your baby's growing: At around 4 inches long, crown to rump, your baby now weighs about 2 1/2 ounces. He's busy inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid, which will help develop the air sacs in his lungs. His legs are growing longer than his arms now, and he can move all his joints and limbs. That means his hands are more functional, too. Sweat glands are appearing, and although his eyelids are fused shut, he can sense light. If you shine a flashlight at your tummy, he's likely to move away from the beam. There's not much for your baby to taste at this point, but his taste buds are beginning to form. And if you have an ultrasound, you may be able to find out whether your baby's a boy or girl! (Don't be disappointed if it remains a mystery, though. Nailing down the gender depends somewhat on how clear the picture is and the position of your baby during the ultrasound; he may be curled or turned in such a way as to keep you in suspense.)
as for that ultrasound bit, i'm putting it off in time for my birthday. birthday gift ko na rin sa sarili ko. =)
singit lang...
dun sa site ng baby-gaga. may mga calendar girls na preggy moms. yung mga nasa same week ko eh obvious na ang mga tummies. partida naman sa akin, 2nd baby na pero nde pa ganun ka obvious ang tummy ko. (naks!) pero humility aside, i can still fit into my regular clothes pa naman and praying i can start wearing maternity clothes when i reach my last trimester para tipid naman. =) i'll try to post a snapshot of my tummy para maniwala naman ang mga nagbabasa ng blog ko. wehehehe :P
yun lang naman so far... plugging na rin... visit naman kayo sa wedding blog ko. wala lang hehe
before i go full blast today at work, might as well do a little blogging on the side. share a few stories etc...
prison break, season 2.. (konting spoiler lang)
golly bananas! this is one addicting series! and thank god season 2 started already. thanks to a few good officemates who religiously download new episodes every tuesday (since it's being shown every monday night in the US) for the sake of us junkies here in the office. of course, after watching the first episode, as usual, it still remained a cliffhanger with new characters to boot. naku, dito na ba mahuhuli si scofield? ma-figure out na kaya ng FBI agent yung mga tattoo niya? and that FBI agent's a smart guy and a bit OC i must say. i also have this feeling na medyo same situation or attitude sila ni scofield. kasi na gets niya agad ang way of thinking niya eh. kakabilib!
pluto, no longer considered a planet...
bloghopped around and i got to read this article in wynzyl's blog and found out something fascinationg about pluto.. sadly, they don't consider it a planet anymore.. boo! read the full article here: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060824/ap_on_sc/planet_mutiny
so 8 na lang ang official planets natin plus a few hovering a few million miles away from pluto na wala pang names pero identified na. naku, pano na yan pag dating ng panahon na nagaaral na ang mga anak ko? ano kaya ang tamang sagot sa tanong na: "how many planets are there in the solar system?" mababaliw siguro tayong mga ina.
nakakaawa rin dun sa nakadiscover sa pluto na after all those years eh ganun na lang na mawawala ang planet mo sa solar system. siguro ngayon depressed siya kung buhay lang siya ngayon. heheh
my wedding blog..
wala lang. naisipan ko lang na mag create ng isa pang blog para lang sa ma wedding chenes ko. ayaw ko lang kasi ng cluttered look sa blog ko na to. kasi pang random drama and thoughts lang to. so better na lang for a wedding blog.
bisita naman kayo sa: NOT BRIDEZILLA kahit na 3 posts pa lang. trying to update naman ako eh. tsaka kung may gusto kayo i-share na ideas, go lang!
kyle the dancer..
natuwa ako kaninang umaga nung hinatid namin si kyle sa in-laws namin. saktong nanonood si shobe ng mga nursery rhymes. so etong anak ko, since gising na gising na at alam malaki ang walking area niya, hala sige ang lakad. tapos pag may gusto siyang song. hihnto yan at magsasayaw. with matching bending pa ng knees tapos mag twist siya from left to right. basta yun. i'll try to get it in video para ma gets niyo. hehe pag tapos na siya sumayaw, mag clap siya for a job well done sabay punta kung san ako nakaupo para maglambing. nakakatunaw ng puso no?
sale sa sm!
sana sept 1 na para ma experience ko na ang sale sa sm makati!! until sept 3 siya actually. at ubod ako ng saya! at least kahit paano eh makakamura sa pamimili ng mga gamit. gamit ko at mga gamit ni kyle at ang upcoming bebe. sa panahon kasi ngayon dapat nagtitipid at abusuhin yang mga sale na yan! hahaha wala lang excited na ako. tapos may nalalapit pang book fair sa world trade. nakakawindang!!
anyway, off to do some serious work na. mahirap nang kumita ng pera eh. hahaha sana sweldo na rin bukas!
a bit boring in my side of life.. so might as well list the achievements of my little boy. the love of my life =)
since he turned one, he knew how to:
> climb the stairs with our help. one foot per landing
> clibe the stairs on his own, but in a crawling fashion
> knows how to drink through a straw. even i was amazed when i saw this! it was just an experiment!
> can walk all on his own around the house. but sometimes has his drunken master moments
> can be potty trained soon since i've realized that he has a regular schedule of making poopoo and he has his special position when making poopoo. hehehe
> he knows how to replace the cap on his milk bottle
> can sleep on his own, provided i'm beside him so that he can still make siksik.
> he knows who dada, dadee, mama, nana, uncle peepee is. even in pictures!
> he laughs when he sees is pictures
> he knows how to stum a guitar
> can turn off and on the lights and any other switch he can get his little hands in.
> shockingly, but he knows how to put any appliance's cord in the socket. of course, with mommy saying NO! before he does put it in... but you know the act how to do it. yun.
> he knows ho to climb down my parent's bed. without any help
wow, i can't believe he just turned one a month ago and he knew all these things. i feel so proud. and i can't believe how smart my kid is. (oo na, stage mother eh)
the only thing i'm waiting for is to hear him say one complete sentence and with no baby talk! and i'm sure that's just around the corner... =)
wala akong magawa for now so eto. surfed sa net and found this cool image slideshow thingy... :)
enjoy!!
yup. heard the reviews from people and they said the series is quite fetching especially if it deals with medical jargon and what happens in a hospital. in fairness, it's not as gory and icky as nip/tuck.
and of course, it makes you feel like you're one of them coz you can relate to the stress they're going through with a lower stress level for you compared to them.
someone reviewed our site and here's what he/she thought.. in a way it's a compliment compared to what he/she said about inq7. hehehe
