My 38th Week

"Your due date is right around the corner and your baby's just waiting for the right time to be born. She's continuing to build a layer of fat, which will help her to control her body's temperature after birth and will put on more weight (boys tend to be slightly heavier than girls). Take it easy during the final week or so — this may be your last opportunity to relax. Instead of spending every available minute decorating the nursery or folding baby clothes, go out and see a film, read a book or take long naps. Don't forget to spend some quality time with your partner too — it will probably be your last chance to have an evening out together for a while." - Babycenter Site


Two (2) weeks more to go and I'm due! Am on leave now and waiting for that moment to labor. Am also taking my time to relax though at the back of my mind, am feelin' nervous and afraid of my labor time. This 38th week of mine is a Holy Week. I must admit that my movements are very limited and I immediately get tired. But these things did not stop me from taking part of the church activities. I was able to attend the mass in the Last Supper of Christ and joined my family the Visita Iglesia where we went to nine (9) churches here in Davao City.


It rained hard that Thursday night and unfortunately what I gained from that Thursday activities were cough and flu. Can't take any medicines except for WATER. And the worst thing  was, I had nosebleed on the next day - that Friday noon. Good thing, it was stopped immediately with the help of my mom and sister Jackie at home.

This is the sick me during the holy week. I can't taste anything and freaking disturbed with the liquid running down from my nose.

I can no longer count if how many refills of this container of water I drunk to get rid of my uneasy feeling.

This thing won't lie. I'm paranoid. I keep telling everybody in the house that I am sick and I have fever. But to check with this thermometer, NEGATIVE! Feeling ko lang pala talaga...hahah!
