The Good, They Bad & The Ugly

So much is going on right now that I'm really starting to lose grips of things! Sorry I haven't been hopping over to your blog and I've been slack about updating my own as well. Here's the story........

The Good
After weeks of feeling tired all the time, a little home kit proved what I suspected - I'm expecting #2!!! It's still very early days - only 8 weeks now and I'm very cautious as I had a miscarriage prior to Bryan. So no celebrations yet, people! Never theless, VT and I are both overjoyed by the thought of having another child. EDD is July next year, just a month short of Bryan turning 2. I've been put on hormone pills (same as when I was preggers with Bryan) and they make me nauseous and tired the whole day. But the pills are supposed to boost up the embryo's life support hence I'm gladly taking them.

The Bad
Bryan is down with diarrhoea again. This is only 2 weeks after recovering from the previous bout. This time, his bum-bum is all sore that when he poo-ed last night, he cried in such pain that we rushed him to the A&E at Damansara Specialist Hospital (my paed's clinic was closed due to the public holiday). The doc prescribed some cream, Smecta and also pain-killer, which I'm weary about. Anyway, this was right after I'd returned from work so didn't get to sit down for dinner till past 9pm. This morning, he poo-ed twice in a span of half hour so I made sure I changed him and kept his bottom dry and comfy. Poor boy! I am considering giving him the Rotavirus jab since he seemed to catch the diarhoea bug fairly often.

The Ugly
The internal auditors have been auditing my department for the past 2 weeks. I have been under a lot of strain and stress as a result. Not like I have been proliferating money from the bank but because this particular auditor has "bad blood" with me hence is out to "kena" me. I supposed all this really took a beating on me because during the scan this morning, the ob-gyn saw some bleeding near the sac and I've been sentenced to more rest and no stress.

As a result, I'd stayed home today and rested very well.

Great to hear that but I wont congratulate you just yet coz i know how crucial this 12 weeks is. Just take care, DON'T overstress yourself (that's one of the causes of a miscarriage), don't tire yourself too much, don't carry Bryan, take the hormone pills and also the jabs (I took these horrible stuff too but they are good wor) and eat and sleep well. What else? Just email me lah if you need any advice, hehe!

Great news... Rest more if you can & like what Shireen said, try not to carry Bryan if possible. I've been on Hormone pills and jabs too for my 1st pregnancy & yes, it's horrible. *Bleck*...

Take care & God bless... Hope to hear more good news from you soon...

hey.. this is good news... you are aheaed of me already! :) I'm not so soon coz I got to plan as I'm not going to deliver before my music exam in August next year (so selfish horr...) so we'll wait and see.
You must listen to those expert mommies as I do not know about those hormone jab that you had, so just rest more and don't stress yourself too much. I only have experience with placenta previa... :P Anyway, take good care of yourself, ya?
