The 2 lines that changed my life.

It has been 2 weeks of feeling sluggish, sick and weak. I thought that I only had a severe case of fever and the change of weather is greatly affecting my health. I've missed my period for 2 months already, but I usually experience this since I don't really have a regular menstrual cycle. 7 years ago, the last time I went to the OB to have myself  checked thoroughly, the doctor said I would only have 30% chance to get pregnant. That was the side effect of my birth control injections that I have been getting for almost 2 years then.

Most of my friends and cousins were having kids. I've been a ninang and a tita to a hundred kids. The only people who called me "mom" were my students. I never considered myself to be a mother. I couldn't even take care of a plant or a dog. I loved my happy-go-lucky life. Partying all night, smoking and drinking, spending most of my money on shoes and clothes. That was me until October 24, 2012.

I was on sick leave for 2 days already. I stayed in bed because I was nauseous the whole time. I spent my day eating food i was craving for and frequently went to the bathroom to pee. My cousin, who lives beside our house came to check on me and told me I look pregnant. It never really occured to me that maybe, I was pregnant. So the next day, as early as 6:30am, with my HPT kit, went to the bathroom to pee. 3 minutes later, 2 lines appeared on my HPT. I can't believe it that I was sitting on the bowl, crying. I ran to the room and woke Uno up to tell him the good news. Called my ate, my 2 closest friends and announced to the whole world the good news through facebook.

That moment on...my carefree life was thrown in the trash. Lying in bed i silently said goodbye to cigarettes, alcoholic drinks, sodas, sushi, gym, dieting and high heeled shoes. Letting go of all these things were worth it...a miracle happened...God placed a little human being inside my tummy.

Finally, I'm going to be a MOMMY!
