About Me

My photo
Everything happens for a reason. This is what i keep telling myself these days. With all the troubles that i had last year, i pray that i come out on top as a stronger person.

For one chapter to begin, one must be closed. I'm closing the chapter of my life where i am a victim of circumstance, and opening a new chapter where I am full of optimism. I got accepted into Sierra College's Nursing Program for Fall 2009 . I know this is the start of a better life for us. I'm extremly blessed and fortunate to have gotten into the program after only applying once. I'm taking this as a sign from whatever greater power there is out there that this is what I am truly supposed to be doing. i'm not taking anything for granted anymore.

The Real First Visit

Today was my first actual appointment. I registered like normal, but this time i had to pee in a cup. i guess i better get used to that since i'm going to be doing every time i come in to see the doctor.

Instead of seeing my normal OB/GYN doctor, Dr. Rachael Dong, I saw a nurse midwife, Ruth Faro. This was actually okay with me since i've always dreamed about having a drug-free birth. What better to see me for my appointments than a midwife?

They test my urine, took my weight (134 lbs), my blood pressure (129/80), listened to the heart beat (so AMAZING!), and the best part, i got the first picture of my baby. Though it was a bit uncomfortable...okay...very uncomfortable, i was so excited to see the picture on the screen.




Tai was kinda disappointed that there was only one baby. For some reason he wanted TWINS! Can u believe that? I was perfectly happy with just the one baby.

It looked like a little peanut! I'm just hoping and praying that this little person growing inside of me is a little girl.
