PREGNANCY UPDATE 01

" Everything happens for a reason"

Hi everyone

As you all know from my previous post that I am pregnant.This is my first update on my pregnancy. I am currently 18 weeks pregnant and wanted to share my experience during these past weeks. 

FIRST TRIMESTER:

I think I am the lucky few not to experience morning sickness. I thank God for giving me the gift. I did not not have any symptoms during my first trimester. Thats the reason I found out I was pregnant when I was 9 weeks pregnant. 

SECOND TRIMESTER:

I had few symptoms during my second term. The symptoms I had are

1. Feeling tired all the time

2. Feeling hungry very often

3. Feel sleepy all the time

4. Started eating fried chicken a lot especially KFC

5. I feel sickness during the night after having dinner

Slight belly growth during second trimester

12 week scan meet "Oli" 

All these symptoms are natural and can be dealt easily. I usually eat short portion every 2hrs to cope with my hunger. I liked to sleep all the time and my sweet hubby let me to do it. Sometimes I have indigestion during night time and feel sick when I lie down. So I have to sit for a while to settle the sickness. My stomach started growing a bit and my weight increased by 2kg which is required.  

SUPPLEMENTS USED:

Folic acid: I have been taking folic acid 6 months prior to conception.

APPLICATIONS USED:

I have an iphone and I use the pregnancy application to keep in track with the development. The applications are 

1. My pregnancy

2. Baby bump
3. Prenatal workouts

4. Oh baby!

Weight 

Before: 55Kg

After first trimester: 56Kg

After second trimester: 58kg

See you with another pregnancy update. If you going through pregnancy, keep in mind to enjoy the time with your husband and cherish it. Enjoy the journey to motherhood even though it may have ups and downs, everything is worth it when you see your "precious baby". 


Cheers
