I went to take a warm bath but the water was not warm enough yet …I was hyperventilating. My husband kept telling me to calm down and breathe through my nose. Because if I continue breathing through my mouth, I will lose consciousness. Since the water was not warm enough I just hold on to my husband’s body to get a bit warm, I was thrilling all the time. I tried to calm down and breath through my nose like my hubby instructed me.

Hubby brought me to bed and covered me in blankets while I waited for the water to get warm. He called me when the water was already warm and stayed with me till I was done. I did felt better after the shower.

We were wondering what could have caused this. I have throat infection, so my lips turning blue was very unexpected. We went to sleep when I felt better. Around 1 am, I woke up because I was feeling warm, when I checked my temperature it was 40 celsius. I was freaking out because I know that this is high… and what if it goes even higher ? I took something for my fever went back to sleep and hoped I don’t die in my sleep…I am not ready to die yet.

At around 6 am I woke up and I was all wet with sweat but I feel good. I think I am ok now, I feel better anyway than I have felt in the last couple of days. Thanks to the caring hands of my dear hubby. I am so lucky to have a husband like him.

I am happy to be alive! This is like a wake up call for me. I now will always take my vitamins, eat more greens and do some more physical activities.

I am under the weather. It started on Sunday, have bad headache all the time, have sore throat and back pains and now I have fever. I don’t wanna be sick but here I am. I will go to the doctor later and get some meds.

So the announcement of the winners for the Christmas Memory contest will be a bit delayed. I hope you understand. I promise I will look at all the entries as soon as I get better.

It’s a very sad day. It’s so frustrating thinking about what went wrong.  I thought to myself I got pregnant the first try so I should be able to get pregnant again on the second try especially that now we have placed 1 extra embryo than the last time.

It’s cruel because I won’t get answers from my doctor personally till we see each other again in a few weeks. I shed a few tears after the call.

We don’t know yet exactly what’s next if we are going to do another try with a different doctor here or do it in Manila where we will be moving soon or start looking into adoption.

I have been through this before so I try not to drive myself crazy as much as I can. So I busy myself with blogging and talking to you guys. I visit IVF forums and read experiences from fellow women doing IVF. It’s a great way to ease my mind because I know I am now alone in what I am going through. I also read a lot of Baby and child websites to broaden my knowledge about pregnancy.

I don’t know if  peeing more often and wanting to eat all the time are pregnancy symptoms.For the latter, I am thinking  that, maybe I am just eating more because I am bored or to

I don’t want to get too excited this time because it’s hard if later on I hear the bad news. I don’t want to sound so negative, I am just trying to protect myself from heartaches.

After my missed miscarriage, I have rested my body and mind.  After 4 months, I have visited my doctor again and told him we want to try again. We looked at my cycle schedule and planned my Embryo Transfer for the next cycle. He told me to take Clomid to help with my ovulation.

I took it on Day 2 – Day 6 as my doctor have told me. I then met him on December 8 (Day 12 of my cycle)   to see if my lining are alright and if I had follicles. There was indeed one big follicle measuring 19mm. Then we had to see if I was ovulating so I had to pee on a stick. I am. So we scheduled my Embryo Transfer yesterday ( December 13 ).

With Embryo Transfer, one has a full bladder. I did drink plenty of liquids and tried not to pee but I couldn’t hold it anymore so I just peed. I then drank 500 ml of water right away but then after a couple of minutes I had to pee again and was not able to control it again. My gosh! I am so annoyed at myself.

I drank again 4 glasses of water while waiting for the procedure wishing that it will fill my bladder very quickly…and it did.

I was brought to the operation room with full bladder…again I couldn’t stop myself from peeing while I was waiting for the room to be ready. I went to pee and tried my hardest not to pee it all.

The nurse said, “Oh well, if you couldn’t stop it. It’s okay” She was really really sweet and so as my doctor. They checked my bladder if my uterus is still visible, it was, thank goodness.  They did the transfer and I had to pee again right after. I thought to myself, what’s wrong with me for Pete’s sake.

Now, we just wait and see for 2 weeks.I am very nervous  but I try to stay calm and relax.

Please please please, I hope this really is my time to be a momma.

However, knowing that motorcycle helmets are easily available for purchase even online greatly eases my apprehension about this vehicle. Stores like Leatherup hold helmet brands like Outlaw, Hawk, Bell, THH, HJC, Nitro, Shoei, Scorpion, and those for motocross in their inventory, and one can choose from the different types such as half-face, open-face, or flip up, and even the Snell and DOT approved kinds.

Great-looking leather vests for both men and women are also available in different colors other than the traditional black, for the fashion-conscious. For added functionality, motorcycle saddlebags are also in stock, to carry that extra baggage like tools, sports equipment and laptop. Customers can choose from the many sizes and styles, like studded, waterproof, braided, with dual straps, and a lot more. So riding a motorcycle as a vehicle of choice doesn’t have to be a drab and difficult experience for anyone.

The New Arrivals are really really pretty, I think it would take awhile before I can choose what I really want.

Despite the fact that sometimes birth and breastfeeding changes only the shape of the breast, sometimes the size of breasts can decrease dramatically. This means if y a woman wants to return to her pre-pregnancy shape she has no other options but undergo a breast augmentation surgery. Another popular procedure women go for is a tummy tuck. Tummy fat is very difficult to go no matter how much one exercises so surgical involvement is a must. Liposuction is another way to get rid of unwanted fat fast. All of these procedures are very helpful to the insecure and vulnerable young mother.

Another problem women may be facing after birth is an increase in facial wrinkles. This happens because of rapid weight gain during pregnancy and rapid loss of it after giving birth. This is why botox training for nurse practitioners is so popular – nurses can be helping their former patients in a different way altogether. As one can see, plastic surgery as well as non-surgical treatments help women feel confident again.
