pregnancy and me



hmmm i know its been a terribly long time since i have updated my blog. i dont know why, but for reasons best known to me i just kept dilly dallying the writing(typing) part. how lazy of me!!!!!!!!! maybe it had something to do with all the things that were and are going on in my life.




for those who may read this blog..... well am now 9 months pregnant!!! and i cant just wait to hold my baby in my arms!!!! i had a terrible 3 months of nausea which continued right upto my 7 month!!!!! took some ayurvedic medicines which helped to keep some food down my gullet....and now i puke once in a while. what a relief !!!!


this foto that u can see is the one taken in my 8th month.

the main reason behind me writing this blog is coz i want my little one to know some of the great moments and mishaps that have taken place during his/her journey to this world!! so i am gonna address this post to my little devil who is kicing up a storm in dere......

1st month:
i had gone to japan to be with ur baba assuming that i would be dere for atleast 3 months. this was on 1st february. however, since ur aaji took ill seriously we had to come back on 14th february. ur aaji was not doing well, infact we knew these were her last days, so between making trips to the hospital and back u came into our lifes......we dint know when. me n baba came to know about ur existence on 9th of march 2008!!!! and were we excited???? we were jubiliant!! anyways u were a fighter from the start. me n baba were going through lot of emotional and physical stress and yet u were dere with us in everything. u were the only thing that gave us a reason to smile about in those days.

2nd month:
i was advised bed rest. and so ur poor baba was almost torn between working at home, office and going to the hospital to be with ur aaji. at the same time u gave me terrible nausea!!!! yup, i was going on vomitting like crazy. nothing would stay in my stomach. i was worried if u would get any food! we did a scan to see if u were alright. u were like a tiny seed then!! by this time it was almost end of march.

3rd month:
i had to start preparing for lectures and and ofcourse be careful for u!! i was still vomitting!!!! april changed a lot of things in our lives. ur aaji passed away. and the only solace we had was u. we would remain cheerful trying to think of u. u were the one who helped us overcome the difficult phase.

4th month:
i was still vomitting!!!!!!!!!! and i was exhuasted bcoz of the lectures too. i had decided to quit giving lectures coz it was becoming impossible for me to stand for so long and besides i was worried about ur health. i could give more time at home and be more relaxed now. it was in june only that we went to singapore for a week!!! we had loads of fun........so u were an international return baby even before u were born. i will show u all the pictures of the places that u visited when u were in my stomach!!! u r a bhatku baccha coz i vommited just once in our entire trip to singapore.
i wasnt putting on any weight and so would end up feeling weak. well, i even fainted once in the mall when i had gone for some shopping all alone. and after that i couldnt go out anywhere all alone!!
5th month:
we had to do a scan before baba went to japan for 2 months. we both were worried about ur health. thankfully all was right. and baba went to japan with a peaceful mind to japan. he terribly missed being with us, but wot to do? he had to this for his job. i came to stay at thane and got a lot of rest, but i was still vomitting. u were still very tiny and could float around everywhere. i could feel tiny kicks and hiccups that u gave.
6th month:
i was still vomitting!!! and each sunday had started taking lectures too. but all in all it provided me with some means to go out of the home and have a bit of exercise. baba wasnt here, and i missed him a lot. u had started moving around a bit more by now, and so every now and then i would feel giddy when u moved too much!! u were quite an athlete i must say!!!
7th month:
this is the month when i started shopping for u for the first time. me n ur aaji bght a lot of clothes for u. i even learnt knitting and made some shoes for u. ur kicks had started getting harder and my stomach would ache every night. but every time that u were quiet, i would feel something amiss. my nausea had gradually started declining and now i was feeling better and even gaining some weight. that means u were getting healthier by the day!!!
8th month:
at the end of 7th month baba came back!!! i started living between our home in mulund and thane. me n baba did a lot of cleaning at home and made lot space for u in the cupboard. we wanted to welcome u home with a lot of place for u to keep ur clothes!! baba had also done quite some shopping for u in japan. u were gonna be one pampered baby. all foreign ka maal!!! u had become heavier by now and i had started feeling difficult to walk around. ur kicks were more pronounced as u kept wriggling around. we did one scan to ascertain all was well with u. me n baba even decided a name for u. only thing was we dint know if it would be a little prince or princess!!
9th month:
well this is when am writing to u and each day i have my fingers crossed as to when i will be able to hold u in my arms...... even while am writing this i can feel ur tiny feet pushing against my ribs. and though it does ache a lot, i know am gonna miss all this once u r born. yup, we will be able to see u, which is an even more wonderful feeling, but still the special bond that only we both shared will now have to be shared with everyone else too!!!
i hope that when u grow up and read this, u will know in short about ur journey into this world. me n baba will nurture with our love, just the way we both were given a lot of love by our parents!!
