The Pregnancy Diary 2

• The day I had my first ultrasound.

The first ultrasound is done at about 8-10weeks, to make sure the baby is ok and its heart is beating properly. Also to know whether there is a single baby/multiple babies (I was worried about twins). And it was an absolutely amazing experience. We could see just a finger-sized clump on the monitor (not really able to make out head or bottom), with a heart beating, literally jumping out of the tiny body.

Ritzz held my hand throughout and I had tears in my eyes. It was the first visual proof that I had another life in me and the feeling is totally indescribable. It’s really thrilling. It's wonderful to see the little point with a heartbeat that will become your baby.

Not to mention we were relieved that there was only one ;-). The next check-up, we were also able to hear the heart beat thanks to a machine called Doppler machine which magnifies the heartbeat. The beat was really strong and somehow I was so proud of the tiny life :-)

The Pregnancy Diary

Since I announced the pregnancy news through my new blog, most of my posts have been about it. I do want to write about other things but right now this is a major part of my life. That’s why I have dedicated this blog only about my experiences during this time and in coming future. Even later when I have the baby, there will be lots of posts about the baby (probably more than about myself), but then again the baby will be the major thread of my life then.

Anyways, as the first paragraph suggests, this post is going to be about my pregnancy history and some of the highlight days as such :-)

• The day I took my pregnancy test and it turned out to be positive.

Although I have tested at home but I don’t know why I didn’t really believe in such a test and took a doctor's appointment for the same day.  There was no limit to my joy when the doctor confirmed it. It was an unbelievable moment for us. I was elated. Totally…feeling the heavens, we both jumped up and down knowing that we are soon going to be Mom and Dad. I was so-excited and at the same time worried. Worried whether I'll be able to handle the whole thing and the responsibility of a small baby dependent on me for everything. I was just blank.....I really don't know how I supposed to react. We were waiting for this moment from last few months still I was like oh its true?

I have fluctuated between confidence and doubts for all these past 5months and I'm sure it'll go on for the rest of the days or more. Anyways we announced it to both side parents as soon as we got it confirmed from the doctor (with a clause that it be kept secret until 3 months from the rest of the relatives) and family is so excited from my side family it will be first grand child so everyone is so excited and just counting the days.

A Baby Poem

I found this poem online, loved it. Its exactly what I’m thinking these days:-

Little baby on the way,

Getting bigger every day,

Kicking mommy here and there,

God please listen to our prayer.

Keep our baby safe and strong,
Let her time with us be long,
Help us teach her right from wrong,
And we shall praise thee all day long.
This little one, though not yet here,
Is loved so much, has grown quite dear.
Delivery time is growing near,
That’s why we pray our plea you’ll hear.
Please help us Lord, we pray to Thee
With thankful heart, on bended knee,
To raise this child that she might be,

A happy child because of me.

If you feel like
crying sometimes...
If you feel like
Sleeping
I don't mind
and if you're
getting tired of
Walking
and if you're
getting tired of
Talking
it's alright
Cause I know
Just why
Now you're
2 in 1
2 in 1
And it's crazy and fun
Watching you
And I can not love better than YOU..
And if you cannot sleep at night...
And if you need extra pillow...
You can take mine
And if you feeling like big balloon
Don't you worry baby
He will be out soon
But until then you will be
2 IN 1 ...you're 2 In 1
And it's crazy and fun
Watching you
Now you are 2 in 1
And I can't love better than YOU.
if you don't feel like going out tonight
If you don't feel like having anyone around
We can stay at home watching a DVD
Laying on sofa
YOU & ME
Just the two of us
Or should I say three of us...
And I can't love better than YOU.
Cause now you are 2 in 1
You're 2 in 1
