REAL STORIES: Unexpected blessing during pandemic!

REAL STORIES: Unexpected blessing during pandemic!

Preggo Momma of a Little Princess/Financial Advisor

March 10, 2020, isa sa pinaka-magical day ng buhay ko, madaming challenges before namen ma-achieve ‘yun pero grabe rin ‘yung happiness ‘nung natapos at naganap ang wedding namen.

Muntik pa kami abutan ng pandemic, pero thank God! Nairaos namen ito with the whole family.

After the wedding, wala pa kaming plans kung mag-baby na kami since gusto sana namin ma-achieve muna ‘yung mga goals namin.

BASAHIN:

Pregnancy during pandemic: “No unang yakap or unang halik!”

REAL STORIES: “Wag naman sana makuha ng mga anak ko ang kalokohan ko noon!”

REAL STORIES: “After I lost my first born to leukemia in 2004, I longed to become a mom again.”

Bumili na kami ng appliances, sariling bahay, sariling sasakyan, pero come May 2020, na-delay ang regular menstruation ko.

Hindi namin in-expect. Akala namin delayed lang, pero TADAH! May isang guhit na matingkad at isang blurred ang lumabas sa unang pregnancy test ko.

Ayaw pa namin maniwala.

Kaya nag-try pa kami ng 3. Since Buy 1 Get 1 sya sa Watsons. Makalipas ang ilang linggo, nag-try ulet ako, still no changes. May blurry line pa rin. Pagka-google ko, that means positive na pala talaga. Mixed emotions kame since unexpected. Nag-try to conceive pero hindi namin expected na ibibigay kaagad sa amin.

Sobrang saya.

Kasi nadagdagan ng meaning ‘yung buhay namin, buhay ko, at ngayon nasa ika-9 months na ako ng aking pregnancy journey. Hindi na kami makapaghintay na makasama siya. Alam ko new journey ulit itong papasukin namin, pero hinanda na namin ang mga sarili namin para rito.

Hindi ko masasabe na magiging perfect parent kami pero we’ll make sure na ibibigay namin ang best namin para sa kaniya. I love you my Litol Onion!
