Time flies so fast. I’ve finished my first trimester already and I am on
my way to my second trimester.
God has been so good; I never experienced any difficulties during my
first trimester. Aside from pimples/acne break out (yikes!), being tired and always
sleepy, I never had any other issues. So far, all my blood test and urinalysis (laboratory)
to monitor my sugar, thyroid, iron, hemoglobin etc. etc…. are all good as per
my doctor.
I thanked God because although I am on my advanced age, I didn’t
encounter any huge problems on my pregnancy so far. I pray that this would go
on until I deliver our baby J.
Now on my second trimester, I find it difficult to sleep because of my
sleeping position. I looked at the internet and they mostly advise that a
person especially pregnant woman should sleep on their left side to regulate
the flow of blood to the placenta and not to burden the liver. This is hard for
me because I am used to sleeping on my back. I hope that I can get used to this
position, as it will benefit me and the baby. I also go to the bathroom very
often and it disturbs my sleep (Zzzz…). That is why I don’t have continuous sleep
that makes me feel sluggish the next day.
I am still learning more about pregnancy. There’s a lot to learn and I
should be more diligent especially now. But I thanked God that He is providing
me with people that helps me along the way. If I have questions, I can
immediately come to them for advices.
How about you? How was your first trimester? They say that every
pregnancy is different. Maybe you have a different experience from mine. You
are free to share your experiences here and I would appreciate your advice for me
and for all moms-to-be.
God bless us more J

reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in
one’s youth.” – Psalm 127:3-4
