Pregnant... Not Pregnant... Pregnant...

Pregnant... Not pregnant... pregnant... not pregnant...
This will come to the mind of any marriage women or women who have sex intercourse and when their period is late for a day or more...

Before that, I should congratulate a friend of mine who is pregnant for about 7 weeks. They have been married for about 2 years, but those years were just for traveling... No baby in mind yet... Anyway.. they are joining us now... in the roller coaster ride of having a baby...^^

People who are expecting to get pregnant will feel a bit exciting when their period is late, but then it will come to disappointment if they have their period in a day or so...

People who are not expecting will feel a bit worried as if the lateness is really due to pregnancy...

The next thing to do is to take the pregnancy test or some people might search for the Internet for the early signs of pregnancy...

So what are the signs that you are getting pregnant?
1. Instinct
Your instinct will tell you that your body is experiencing different things and you just know it's different... But then.. most of the time.. this will come last.. as the rest will be a lot more accurate... ^^

2. Breast tenderness
It's pretty much like the symptom when you are about to have your period. However, the tenderness is different. This tenderness if more likely fill with liquid as in breast milk. They are preparing for breastfeeding...

3. Fatigue or unusual tiredness
It's because the body is working extremely hard for the changes. It's due to the hormone changes also...

4. Light bleeding or cramping
In my first pregnancy, I thought my period is coming. It wasn't. It's actually the implantation. It's when the fertilized egg implants itself in the uterine lining and usually occurs about 10 to 14 days after conception. Sometimes you might not even notice that...

5. Frequent urination
Yes... travel to the bathroom often. It's because of the growing uterus...

6. Morning sickness
Well, I won't call this as morning sickness as it's also happening in the day time....

Overall, the best result is to go to the doctor. ^^
If you are really expecting a baby... there is a very good website that you can refer to. It's babycentre or parentingweekly.

During my first pregnancy. I read that website quite often as it will send to your email address every week. The more you read, the more knowledge you are going to gain. However, sometimes it will scare you also...

Dave has fever for couple of days already. It started since Wednesday night, but it's getting better in the afternoon. He still went to school at Thursday morning. Then, the fever back again at night. I brought him to dr. Johan at Bangka street in the morning, so he had to skip school. Anyway, it's not good for him to go to school also as the fever is still quite high, 37.8 celcius.

The doctor did give him medicine. He prefers traditional medicine though, so it's kinda hard to make him eat the medicine that the doctor gave.

Then for tomorrow Valentine, it seems like we have to stay at home. :(
Mr. and friends actually already reserved a place at Sushi Tei, but then with this condition, it's impossible for us to go out. Though Dave is getting better now. No more fever.
Gosh... I love Sushi Tei so much... but then.. I am a mom... cannot be selfish... have to choose between Sushi and baby who is in his recovering phases....
