It was five (5) months after our wedding, i when I noticed that I'm delayed. I can't explained what I feel - happy, excited, afraid, mixed emotions. So, I bought immediately a Pregnancy Kit to check but on our dismay, the result was NEGATIVE!
After 2 weeks, I felt really different - I felt dizzy. So, again I bought a Pregnancy Kit and in our surprised it was POSITIVE! We immediately go to the nearest hospital to confirmed if it was really positive. This time we test it by blood (Serum) and it was confirmed, I'm Pregnant! I will be a Mom and Aaron will be a Dad.
In my 20 weeks, I scheduled for a Congenital Ultrasound to check if there was no anomaly and to know also what would be the gender of our baby. After my check-up, it was a baby BOY! My husband was so happy since he wanted to have a son as an eldest.

Time flies so fast and my tummy becomes bigger and heavier. Until I reached 39weeks, I consulted my OB coz I noticed that there were little red spot on my tummy. When she checked it, she told me that I have Varicella Infection (Chicken Pox). Ohhwahhh! For God sake why ME? I'm on my full term and I'm waiting for my baby to come out.
I was advised to have Sick Leave, my due was January 27, 2012. I don't have any medicine for my Chicken Pox, it's so itchy to the highest level and I can't sleep. I just drink lots of water. I research regarding effects of Chicken Pox on the New Born.
After ten (10) days, it was 12:01 AM of February 1, 2012 when I felt contraction every 30 minutes. I'm three (3) days overdue then so we went to Cardinal Santos Medical Center and proceed to delivery room.
I labor for 16 hours until I reached 10cm, it was a very painful experienced. I told my OB that I want Normal Delivery - Epidural (Painless). My half body was numb but I still felt the pain. I started pushed and pushed but my baby won't come out.
After three (3) hours, I told my OB that I don't think I can deliver my baby vaginally. So, she immediately called my husband and signed the waiver. I scheduled for a Low Transverse Ceasarian Section (LTCS) around seven o'clock in the evening. When my baby was out, he weights 9lbs and 2oz and his birth lenght was 54cm. Very big bouncy baby boy!
I was a little bit droggy then when I heared a tiny sweet sound - it was my baby crying! And as I talked to him, he kept quite. I stayed in the Recovery Room for three (3) hours together with my baby. We were in the Isolation Room since I have Varicella Infection.
I stayed at room 505 and after four (4) days, we were discharged at CSMC. We were so happy that our baby boy has no Varicella Infection. He is very healthy and chubby.
