July 16, 2009


I had my first transvaginal ultrasound. We saw my baby’s heartbeat. Everything seems to be normal except for my polycystic ovaries. As expected, my right ovary was polycystic. My OB said that my left ovary has a physiologic cyst but this might be where the fertilized egg came from... This is a miracle. After many years of waiting I’m finally pregnant. I can see the tiny heartbeat of my baby on the monitor.
My husband was there and as always was very much excited.
I’m now 7 weeks and 5 days pregnant… Deliriously happy

Officially pregnant

July 1, 2009 at around 7:30pm, wife was screaming… husband run frantically to her side. Both were in shock with unexplained happiness. They could not believe it, finally two lines. Wife tested again after an hour just to be sure… two lines again!
Could this be it? An unexpected moment … an answered prayer for so long. The next day, wife tested again, same result… The couple was amazed, cried, laugh… It has been three years, could this be it? The wife was so eager to visit an OB to confirm…

The next day, wife tested again. The lines were faint but it still showed two pink lines. wife can’t contain the news to herself. She had to tell someone. But then she had apprehensions because there was no confirmation yet. Also, there might be a chance that it’s a false alarm, maybe a blighted ovum? She can’t wait to leave the office and visit an OB. Her agony took even longer because the big boss called a meeting that morning and she can’t do anything about it. Finally, at noon the meeting ended. Finally... the OB assured her that that the pregnancy test kits were reliable and she’s definitely pregnant and she shouldn’t entertain negative thoughts. This comforted her. She then finally called her husband and told him the news. The husband was ofcourse extremely ecstatic.

Everyone at the office greeted the wife. She was overwhelmed with happiness. So blessed! God is so Good!
