Mommy Moments: Preggy Days

This is my first time to join Mommy Moments and I'm excited!

I was so happy when finally I got pregnant about two months after our wedding. We really planned to have children after a year but since we were not getting any younger, we asked God to give us one the soonest.

I don’t have decent preggy pics when I had Gabby except this! I have two but I showed too much skin (read: image of my bare tummy) on the other one so I just chose this.

I didn’t know that I was already 3-4 weeks pregnant at the time this pic was taken! We went to Boracay for the first time and not knowing that I already have Gabby inside me, I enjoyed our stay there. We went island hopping, cave trekking and even swam on waters found on the cave!

I have a very easy pregnancy then. I didn’t experience morning sickness, vomiting and cravings. But I have placenta praevia. I was advised by OB-Gyne to really take extra care.

This pic was taken when I was five months pregnant with Sunday. Gabby was confined in Capitol Medical Center because of broncho-pneumonia and asthma. The doctors advised me not to visit him because I might catch viruses and bacteria which may harm Sunday. Worse, the doctors suspected Gabby might have smallpox because of the rashes he had at that time! I can't remember contracting smallpox so the nurses and other hospital staff insisted that I go home. But I still visited Gabby and took care of him. I can’t accept the fact that I’m his mom and I wasn’t there to give him his meds or just to put him to sleep. I’m still grateful to God that Sunday was born healthy and normal.

I'm a husband,so I won't be experiencing those preggy days. But I think I should know something here, just to understand what my wife will have on her when we're ready to have a kid.
