Here’s an update on what our little bean is doing in there at 11 weeks! I was squealing the entire time when we saw its tiny moving hands and legs. It’s just chilling in there! How cute! I can’t wait for the next scan to take a peek at what the little one is doing!
10 Weeks: Renovation, a Holiday and a New Skill
Our little sweet pea is 10 weeks today! Been spending more time in the kitchen, improving on a healthier porridge recipe. Motherhood level +1! The nausea and vomiting has not ceased so I picked up crochet to take my mind off it. My first project is this baby bear hat from a YouTube tutorial. Isn’t this the cutest thing?! […]
9 Weeks: My First Pot of Home-Cooked Porridge
Oh morning sickness! How you torture me so! At week 9, my morning sickness has peaked and vomiting has been a 2-hourly affair to the extent that I could only lie in bed feeling shitty all day. I feel hungry every 10 minutes and when I feel hungry, I feel nauseus. The cycle goes on. So I […]

The First Fetal Scan @ 7 Weeks
So due to hydrosalpinx, I am extremely prone to having an ectopic pregnancy. Prior to the scan, I have felt weird cramps and sharp pains at the ovaries. That could be cysts or ectopic. I refused to google any further and tried really hard to instill positive thinking. At this point, whether or not it […]
Pregnancy with Pets
It is interesting how sticky Ozzy is around me since we found out that I’m pregnant. A little background of our cat: He is only affectionate when he needs our cuddles like most other cats. Other than that, he likes his distance and space. He is also super fearful of babies and kids. But he is interested and wants […]
Hydrosalpinx, Severe OHSS and an Extremely Unexpected BFP
I’m writing this as living proof that there is hope for all of us to get pregnant, as impossible as it may seem. Hopefully, my story will shed a bit of light and positivity on someone who needs it. Juvie and I have been trying to get preggers for 5 years. We have gone to 4 […]
