I woke up this morning with nausea. The last time I had nausea was more than 3 years ago when I was pregnant with Ethan. That was the first symptom that led me to discover that I'm pregnant. Then I tried to recall when I had the last mens. Jeezzz..............end October, before I left for New Zealand. The sickness became stronger as I drove to work. Really felt like vomiting in the car.
A lot of things came into my mind as I drove. "Where are we going to put the baby cot?"........"I need to get the baby clothes back from my sis....and the maternity dress too...I hope she has not given them away"....."How to cope with 2 babies?"......What will be the sleeping arrangement?".........................
Panic started to kick in when I reached the office. I quickly surfed the net and check on the pregnancy calculator. If I'm pregnant, the baby should be 6 weeks by now. The clinic opens at 9am and it was barely 8.15 in the morning. I was anxious, worried, excited and scared.
After settling a few things in the office, I walked to the clinic, registered myself and told the doctor that I might be pregnant. The first thing he did was to check my pulse and he said "Pulse very strong, possible". I also told him that I took some migrain medicine 2-3 weeks back and I'm worried it will affect the baby. He said it should be ok if I took it for short term. He asked me all the dates and measured my weight before asking me to get the urine sample. Then came the result - It's negative. I was a bit disappointed to hear that. It's funny coz I always think I'm not ready to have another baby. I should be relieved instead.
Anyway, I alsked the doctor what caused the nausea. He then checked on my stomach and said I have wind. He then prescribed some medicine and asked me if I need folic acid. I said no need and told him I'm not planning for a baby yet.
Just wonder how my second baby will look like........like Ethan or totally a different look........
