Third trimester and baby's arrival

Thursday, January 17, 2019

On 22 August 2017, I finally made it into the third trimester! Baby is actively moving around and it is easy to count kicks now. I gained about 7kg! My stomach is so big now, it feels so heavy. My back and legs do hurt from the weight. lol. It is a little harder to sleep at night. I feel like I did not actually fall asleep. I just feel so tired. I do experience minor morning sickness up until now.

On 12 September 2017, I went for my prenatal check up. Baby had already turned! Baby is approximately 1.5kg now! It is amazing how fast baby is growing now! I can see baby moving around and making sudden movements. It feels so good watching baby and my belly. lol. I do crave for sour food. I am eating more fruits now to make sure baby is at least a little healthier... Sometimes I do crave for junk food. I love to lie down and rest now. I get tired easily now. Good thing is, I can still sleep through the night without needing to go to the toilet.

On 18 September 2017, I slipped and fell on my knees and hands. The floor was wet from the rain earlier. It happened all too fast. I got up immediately but I was in shock. My first reaction was to cry. I thought something bad might happen and I could not protect baby. I was so scared. Hubby was in KL for a conference so I felt even more scared. When I felt baby moving inside, I feel much more relieved. Thank you God for watching over our family.

One week later, I noticed that I get leg cramps in the middle of the night! It is coming back! Well, it did not bothered me as much previously. Now that it is coming back, I feel a bit scared at night. lol. Baby is super active now. Sometimes when baby moves around it feels a little painful. When I am in the toilet doing big business I feel that baby is peeking at me because baby moves around... lol. That feeling is so strange. Back pain is much more noticeable when I stayed in one posture for a longer time.

On 5 October 2017 (33 weeks) , baby's movement was so strong that I woke up in the middle of the night. It is so easy to feel baby moving around. It is also easy to see the movement on my belly. I like looking at it but sometimes it feels so funny because baby is moving everywhere. My tummy is dancing!

On 9 October 2017, I noticed that my weight is decreasing by almost 1 kg. I quickly googled to see if it is anything I should be worried about. Turns out it is not abnormal as there is changes in appetite. I cannot eat a lot at one time now because I feel full easily. I also become hungry quite quickly. I also noticed that there is a lot of bubbles or foam when I pee. At first I thought it might be a sign of gestational diabetes, so I was a little worried. It turns out to be quite normal. lol.

On 17 October 2017, I went for the usual check up. Baby weighs 2.4kg! I was a little scared when I heard it. lol. Doctor said it is normal so I guess it is fine. I gained 1kg in 2 weeks time! It is so much harder to sleep at night now. I feel like I did not really sleep. Not sure whether it is because baby was moving too much when I sleep. I cannot wake up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night. I tend to only go to the bathroom when I am wake up in the morning. I can almost feel that my bladder will burst.

On 20 October 2017, there was light pink discharge when I wiped with toilet paper. I was freaking out a little. It turned out to be a false alarm. I thought baby is coming out! Well, since hubby was not sure we went to check with the doctor anyway. Baby is 35 weeks now. The next few days, I feel like my stomach has cramps and when baby kicked it was painful.

On 24 October 2017, I went for the usual check up. Everything seems fine. The report is not out yet. Baby weighs 2.7kg! I was surprised because my appetite was not good the past few weeks. Baby managed to gain weight so easily. lol. My doctor mentioned that maybe baby will decide to come out earlier. Hubby and I feels a little nervous now!

On 31 October 2017, everything seems normal. The report was out. No infection. My weight remains at about 55-56kg.

On 7 November 2017, I had contractions that last until the next morning. The pain was still tolerable. I was told by my family to go to the doctor for check up. It was a false alarm. lol. I was dilated by 1cm. That was it. I went home to rest.

For the next few days, the contractions were much more frequent and painful. I cannot even sleep through the night because the pain wakes me up. The pain did not go away even though I keep changing positions. On 11 November 2017, I went for the CTG scan and the doctor recommend me to go for the scan again the next day. I did. The doctor said that baby is sleeping so he asked me to check again in the afternoon. Doctor is afraid that baby is not getting enough nutrients. I had to be admitted that night to be monitored. Contractions were getting worse through the night. I cannot really sleep because the nurses keep checking on me every two hours. I'm exhausted. My cervix was still dilated by 1 cm. I guess I still have to wait before meeting our baby.

On 14 November 2017, contractions become even more painful and frequent. I cannot even sleep and no matter what I do the pain is still there. It is getting worse as time passes. I keep waking up a few hours to go to the toilet and walk around to ease the pain. Finally it is morning and the doctor came by to check. My cervix is dilated to 2cm. Doctor suggested induced labour and so I was in the labor and delivery room at about 1pm. The nurses prepared everything and broke my waters. The nurse told me that even if I am induced the process would took about 6-8 hours for my cervix to be dilated to about 6cm. I can feel the pain getting more intense pretty quickly. Hubby went out for lunch with his parents and sister because he rushed over this morning when I told him I'm in pain without taking his breakfast. At about the same time, I was ready to give birth. The nurses did not manage to find my husband so they called. By the time hubby came into the room, baby is delivered. He only managed to see the whole placenta being delivered. The whole process took a little more than 2 hours which was surprisingly quick. I really thought that I would die in there because the pain was excruciating. I wanted to give up. Then suddenly, I asked God to help me. At that moment, the nurses told me they can see the baby's head. So I continued pushing but I really have no more energy. When the doctor came, I continued pushing and a few moments later I heard that the baby's head is out. I was surprised. Everything seemed to happen so quickly. When the nurses placed the baby on my chest, I called baby twice and he opened his little eyes to look at me. It was only for a moment then the doctor and nurses continued to do what they had to do. I was shaking really bad afterwards. When they pushed me back to my room, I slept for an hour or two before waking up. It was a miracle.

It has been almost six months since I last blogged. I have been busy with baby boy and work. Finally I managed to squeeze in some time to update my blog. I just realized I actually miss blogging. I will try to blog more after Christmas, maybe!

Finally in my second trimester!

I was looking forward because (according to my app) second trimester is the most comfortable period.

I went for my check up on 30 May 2017. Baby is 15 weeks! I was glad to see baby. Baby is not very active. The doctor had to poke my tummy to make baby move. The placenta was a little higher now. I was more relieved. I feel so happy seeing baby but I do wish that baby moves around more. lol

My morning sickness was still quite bad on the days when I did not had enough sleep. Other than that, everything else was ok. On 7 June 2017, there was a sharp pain in my chest. It was short and sudden. It lasted a second or two at most.

On 10 June 2017, I woke up in the middle of the night because of cramps! It had already started? I went out the next day in the afternoon to buy milk powder. That night I started drinking the milk and no cramps for now. My belly looks less like a food baby now. It is becoming a little hard to hide the bump now...

On 13 June 2017, baby is 17 weeks! It is also time for our routine check up. We thought we will find out the gender today but baby was in a crawling position. Baby is not cooperative. lol. My blood test result came out. Everything seems fine except low red blood cell count. The doctor said it is not something I should be worried about.

On 17 June 2017, my legs started hurting. It is not cramps. It just feels sore and painful when I walk and bend over. It's strange. Then a few days later, my left arm and wrist is in pain. I thought it might be my sleeping posture but decided to Google it anyway. Surprisingly, it is pretty common. 70% of pregnant women experienced it in the second or third trimester. The pain was disturbing. I lose my appetite for food because of that. lol. My body is aching all over, I feel so old!

Baby is 18 weeks old (20 June 2017) but I still cannot really feel baby kicking. I think baby kicked but I am not sure. lol. It's strange.

On 26 June 2016, I finally felt baby kicking. I mean I am sure baby kicked me a few times! My throat felt dry for the past few weeks and I felt that there was a lump at the back of my throat. Turns out it was not odd at all. lol. It just feels extremely uncomfortable. The next day, (27 June 2017) we went for prenatal check up and finally found out the gender of baby. Everything seemed to be normal. I started gaining weight. lol

Since baby started kicking, hubby and I spent more time together at night. Singing and talking to baby. On 29 June 2017, I felt baby kicking harder than usual. I took hubby's hand and placed it on my tummy, where baby kicked. Suddenly hubby was excited and surprised because he felt baby kicking. We continue talking and singing to baby. Hubby tried to listen to baby and baby kicked his ear. lol. Hubby was very excited when he felt baby kicking. I felt so happy being able to feel it.

On 7 July 2017, there was cramp in my stomach! It was painful. I thought something was wrong with baby. I asked hubby to try to listen to baby. He told me he could feel baby kicking him. lol. I did not feel any kicks. Hubby could count baby kicking more than 10 times. Baby was really active. lol
Since baby was active, I guess the cramp was normal. Baby is kicking much more than usual now. Not just at night.

On 13 July 2017, hubby was busy with work and needed some encouragement. He put his head on my belly and was surprised that he heard baby's heartbeat. He was positive it was not mine because it was really fast. He listened to my heartbeat and said mine was really slow. He tried to locate baby's heartbeat again and tap on my tummy to show me how different the heartbeat was. lol. I went online to check and saw that some were able to hear baby's heartbeat at 26 weeks. Baby is only 21 weeks at the moment but hubby was extremely positive he could hear it!

Throughout this week, I notice baby is way more active. At 22 weeks I noticed a pattern. He moves around a lot between 5:30 am to 7 am. After I had lunch baby will be active for a while. Finally baby is very active at night up till midnight.

I find it to be more difficult to sleep on the left side now. Maybe because my belly is so big now.

At 23 weeks, I notice my belly is growing very quickly. My belly button is going to pop out soon. lol. I can feel the stretch on my tummy as baby grows inside. Sometimes I feel a little pain on my tummy from the stretching, I guess. Morning sickness came back this week as well... It is really bad in the morning. Baby is active when I had sweet or spicy food. We're guessing that he likes it!

At 25 weeks, my belly button popped out. My tummy feels heavy... I started applying coconut oil and shea butter to my tummy now and then... I am still lazy... I cannot wear most of my clothes now. I keep away those I cannot wear for now because it becomes really difficult to get the one that I can wear. Somehow, I just want to eat salad all the time. Strange cravings. I start to find it a little difficult to sleep at night because of my tummy. I can feel baby moving so much more now which is very comforting.

At 27 weeks, I had occasional leg cramps. Actually just a few times. My belly button popped out completely. I find my tummy heavy. Difficult to move around now. lol. I love vegetables more than meat now. I cannot fit into my usual clothes now because my tummy is so big now. Baby is very active kicking almost all the time. Baby is so strong now. Sometimes it hurts when baby kicks. White discharge has increased a lot. I need to change my underwear more often now unless I use panty liners. It is disgusting.

That is all for my second trimester diary :)

First trimester

Thursday, April 26, 2018

On 24 March 2017, I found out I was pregnant. The doctor estimated the baby to be 4 weeks 4 days. Morning sickness already kicked in at this time. My energy level feels lower than usual. I feel tired easily and looks forward to taking naps. Before I was pregnant, I rarely took naps. My breast feels sore and my stomach feels weird. I feel the need to urinate more frequently. I do have strange cravings like fermented black beans (before I found out I was pregnant) and strawberries. I was disgusted by eggs and certain kind of fish.

On 28 March 2017, we went for a check up with the gynae that my mother in law recommends. I started taking folic acid. Morning sickness was not too bad. My weight fluctuates like the share market. lol. My weight increased after meals and dropped after going to the toilet. I eat much lesser but at a more frequent interval. I had to eat every two hours or so. At this time, I had cravings for Kettles Sea Salt and Vinegar Chips, lemon and everything that is sour.

On 8 April 2017, baby is 6 weeks 5 days (based on my app). Morning sickness was worse than previous weeks. I feel even more tired. I just want to sleep. I had cravings for mashed potatoes and spicy food. I just cannot eat tuna.

On 11 April 2017, we went to our monthly check up. Baby is 7 week 4 days according to the scan. We heard baby's heartbeat for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised. So far I did not gain weight yet. I feel bloated and gassy after meals. I feel like four or five months pregnant after meals. I would even gain up to 1kg after meals. How should I put it... Well, farting is a little out of control. I mean it stinks! I went to Mr. Google and read all those funny comments and articles. So yes, it is normal. I had cravings for Nando's chicken and potatoes of all sort. Headache is starting to kick in at this time. I feel dizzy quite frequently.

On 25 April 2017, I noticed something strange again. I was disgusted by water, especially boiled water. I can take mineral water but I just cannot drink the water that was boiled. It turns out I was not the only one after I went searching online. lol. I can eat eggs again but find potatoes a bit of a turn off. Pregnancy is just so amazing. I was turned off by my favorite food, cheesy mashed potatoes. I noticed I prefer to eat noodles over rice which is really unusual. I never really enjoyed noodles before I was pregnant. I became more emotional around this time. Sometimes, I just feel like crying for no reason. I was angry over small things but luckily hubby was very patient with me. Hubby has been making sure I am eating. He just wants to make sure I eat so he accommodates to my (crazy) cravings all the time.

I love to eat spicy food. All of a sudden I notice I cannot really take it anymore. I will have stomachache and loose stools after eating spicy food. I tried my best to stay away from spicy food for a while to see how it affect me. I do have strong cravings for steamed chicken rice from a particular stall. I mean rice, not the chicken. Somehow I stopped eating at frequent intervals. I eat regular meals and I eat more. After a while, I did notice I only eat during lunch. I did not really eat much for breakfast and dinner. I only had some biscuits in between. I just want to sleep.

On 9 May 2017, we went for our monthly check up. We saw baby moving around. It was amazing. We saw baby's heart pumping. We can even see baby's little hand and feet. I almost cried again. lol. It has been amazing even though it was only the beginning.

On 13 May 2017, before dinner, I went to the toilet. I saw brown discharge and I freaked out. When I wiped, there was nothing. When I was home, I noticed there was one drop of blood on my underwear. Nothing else. I went to Google for information and I freaked out even more because most of the websites mentioned higher chance of miscarriage and stuff like that. I became super emotional I cried when I think about it. I started wearing pads to see if there were more discharge or blood.

The next morning, I had a bad diarrhea. We went to the clinic as soon as we can to make sure baby is still doing fine. We managed to see the doctor after more than an hour of waiting. We had a scan. Baby was not as active as the previous time. I was so scared because baby was not moving at first. When the doctor tap my abdomen, baby moved. We were informed that there was slight bleeding underneath the placenta. I was given more medication and my next appointment is in 9 days. My weight dropped to 45.9kg (previously it was 47.4kg). I was advised to be more cautious and rest more.

I was relieved that baby is fine but I was still worried. I tried to eat more. We went to do some grocery shopping. I bought fruits and soy milk. I tried my best to eat more for baby. I eat more frequently so my weight will increase. I rested at home for 2 days. There was no more discharge so I went back to work.

On 17 May 2017, after lunch I went to the toilet to check because I felt that there were unusual amount of discharge. I was not wrong. There were light brown discharge and it actually covered the whole panty liner (tmi) so I panicked again. I was not sure whether I should be worried but I decided to call my mom. My mom was worried so she suggested me to go in and check on the baby. Actually my mother in law was worried and asked me to go to the clinic but I hesitated because my next appointment is in 6 days. When I was relucrant my mom asked me to call the clinic to see what the nurses will say. Well, I went to the clinic to check because the nurse suggested me to go in. When we saw the scan I was worried because baby did not move. The gynae showed us that baby is doing fine by showing us baby's heart. There were still blood underneath the placenta so I was advised to continue with the medication. My next appointment was rescheduled to a week later. I was feeling so much better now. At least, I know baby is fine.

I realized that getting enough sleep is really important. Morning sickness was not as bad when I had enough sleep. I took a lot of naps because of this reason. lol

A LITTLE MIRACLE

Sunday, March 11, 2018

I am finally back from a long break. I was away for more than four months. If you followed me on any of my social media you will know why I have been absent. I was pregnant and then I had to take care of our first baby. Life is hectic in a good way.

After our wedding (January 2014) we wanted a baby. That was just natural. We wanted a little horse. So after a few weeks when my period was late (for two days), I was extremely excited and had such high hopes. I asked hubby to get a pregnancy test for me. I followed the instructions and after a while, I looked at the results. One line. Disappointment! I was a little too anxious. Then when my period was late for a week I did the test again. Another disappointment!

The cycle just went on and on with my suspicions and then testings followed by more disappointments. I wasted a lot of the pregnancy tests. Eventually I kind of gave up. The last time I checked was when my period was late for two months. I was staring at the basin and then the floor and finally the door. After I took a deep breath, I looked at the test. It was negative again! I thought maybe the test was not accurate and broken perhaps? So I went to the hospital hoping that I was already pregnant... but no! Okay okay... It was me all along. Thinking too much and maybe I started hallucinating?

My period used to be irregular/abnormal when I was in college but everything went back to normal about five years ago. So my suspicions were reasonable right? I went online to check on pregnancy related issues and search for "how to get pregnant fast". Sound like one desperate woman!

A few days later, I watched Bubzbeauty's pregnancy videos where she said she was guilty to be saying that it was really easy to get pregnant. I was like... oh ok... yup... that's me... not so easy to get pregnant but still I am happy for her. It was a happy thing! I was implanting happy and positive thoughts in my mind constantly.

After trying for about two years, we finally decided it was time to check what is preventing it. We found out that the chance for us to have a baby is low. I was heartbroken but there is nothing that we can do. We took supplements recommended by our doctor. Then I took medicines as well. When I had my period I went to the doctor again. There was a few medications and I was also given the ovulation test kit. On the third day, there was finally a double line. I was waiting for time to pass in the toilet. When I looked at it, I was a little surprised. I quickly took my phone out to confirm whether it is a double line. I was relieved. At least there is still hope.

Even after getting help, we knew our chance to have a baby is very very low. We finally stopped. The doctor actually told us to pray to God so that means the chance is too low for him to help us right? We could only pray that one day, maybe there will be a chance. I tried to convinced myself it was fine for us not to have a child. I kept convincing myself every single day. I thought I was fine but when I saw friends or people around me announced their pregnancy, I was miserable. I was happy for them but I was so depressed for us. Deep down I knew I still wanted a baby. 

Every time someone asked us "When are you guys having a baby?" or "Do you think you are still young?" It hurts. It really does. We wanted a baby but we cannot. Some people even joke about it. I tried my best to ignore but it still gets to me. Almost every time but I still have to hide it. There is nothing else we can do. We tried a healthier lifestyle. I tried to become vegan but it was too hard at first so I switched to a pescatarian diet. It was fine for a few months then I changed my mind again.

We waited.

We prayed.

Nothing happened.

One night before we slept, I suddenly asked hubby, "Why did God not answer our prayer?"

Hubby felt really down when I said it.

It was depressing that night.

I cried myself to sleep.

I tried not to let hubby know about my thoughts later on because of that incident.

When my period was late on March 2017 and I had strange cravings, I decided we should check just in case. On 11 March 2017, we went to buy the pregnancy test. I did not test until 14 March 2017. I did not want to get my hopes up. I waited for a while after doing the test. It was negative. I thought I knew it but I was still disappointed. I was not feeling well a week after. Hubby thought I had been eating too much junk food.

Somehow, I felt that I should just take the pregnancy test once more since we had another one. On 24 March 2017, I woke up early to get ready for work. I decided I will just test it. I did everything as instructed. Then I went to brush my teeth.

When the timer went off, I looked at the test. I was surprised. It seemed to be positive. I was not sure. I went to hubby and told him I think it is double line. He woke up and ask for the test. lol. I told him it was in the toilet so he went in to check. He was surprised and we were not sure whether to believe the test. Yes, we cannot believe the result. We were afraid to get our hopes up. It was a scary moment for us.

Later on that day, we went to check at the clinic just to be sure. The nurse told me to do a urine test. So I did. She told me "Yes, you're pregnant!" I was surprise, happy and excited. I cannot hide my emotions.

She congratulated us. We did a scan to make sure the baby is in the uterus. When it was confirmed that everything was fine, I cried. Hubby was so happy as well. We had been waiting for this day forever. I just hope everything will be smooth. I cannot wait to meet you, baby.

Thank you God.

Thank you for this miracle.

Baby Jellie is pregnant!

Tuesday, April 1, 2014

I was so excited when I found out my baby was pregnant. I was just guessing. Haven't gone to the vet yet. Well, my baby was mated with my sister in law's son. They were of the same kind, the only difference was their colour. It happened on 25 January 2014. Lol. I kind of pity my girl as it seems like rape to me. I'm so sorry but my baby was in pain...

I  was sure my baby was already pregnant after two weeks. Just my thoughts. We started guessing that my baby was pregnant about one month later. She refused to eat her kibbles. Morning sickness maybe? She refused to eat for two days! My baby gained a lot of weight... We felt she looked so fat all of a sudden. She became so clumsy... slipped down when she ran, missed a step when she ran up the stairs and others. She became less active and slept almost all the time. Almost 23 hours *maybe a little exaggerated*

Her funny sleeping pose

Another one ;)

Fell asleep very fast

We also noticed that her nipples were slightly bigger and she seemed to have baby bump (5 March 2014). It was quite obvious to us. Maybe not that obvious in picture.

We went on Mr Popular, Google to check if my baby was really pregnant. Just to confirm before going to the vet.

From wikiHow:

1. Monitor her appetite

• My baby refused to eat for two days
• Sometimes she eat more than her usual portion

2. Pay attention to her behavior

• My baby slept too much recently and she was less active as well
• She was slow to respond and clumsy

3. Notices changes in your dog's body

• Her nipples grew a little bigger
• She gained weight
• Her belly was bigger and seemed like a baby bump
• Noticed her vagina had clear/milky discharge twice

4. Go to the vet

• I tried to be a vet... lol. I placed my ear to her belly to listen for heartbeat... Well, it didn't work.

Okay, I hereby confirm that my Jellie is pregnant! (confirm by myself... lol)
I need to bring her to the vet soon.

On 8 March 2014, we brought our baby to the vet to confirm whether or not she is pregnant. The vet touched her belly and confirmed on her pregnancy. We were excited. The vet said that the babies were about one month old. The vet did ultrasound (forgot to take picture cause I was too excited) to show us the babies inside her belly. We cannot really see but we were so excited! Jellie is a mummy now. There are at least four babies but the vet said it may not be accurate as Jellie's  uterus is kind of full so we should expect a lot of puppies! Hubby and I were very shocked when we heard "a lot"... The expected delivery date is mid April. Jellie's belly will continue to grow like a pear! OMG she is so fat now!

Pictures of her baby bump on 9 March 2014

Her baby bump!
Don't hamsap look at her nipple XD Lol
Not obvious enough?

How about this?
Can see the baby bump?

Pictures of her baby bump on 12 March 2014

Can you see the baby bump?
The little doggy is pointing at her baby bump.

Not sure if this is clearer.

Her big belly!

My baby's expression when I ask her to hold still for me to take a pic of her baby bump!

Pictures of her baby bump on 21 March 2014

Baby Jellie ish so fat now!

This one should be obvious enough :)

Pictures of her baby bump on 24 March 2014

My baby Jellie is about 2 months pregnant (my own assumptions - from date of mating)

Look at the flabbiness

Look at the fat belly!

I think I have to stop here! Too much picture spamming.

Two days later, 26 March 2014 my baby had given birth to four puppies! Three females and a male :) I am so proud of  my baby!

Let's rewind to a couple of hours before my baby gave birth...

Hubby had a feeling that baby wanted him to stay home but still hubby had to work. I was home all alone. Baby was a little strange. She was carrying her toy and walking around aimlessly. I was not sure what she wanted. Suddenly, I saw white liquid on the floor (of course I saw it was from baby). At that moment, I was very shocked. I was asking myself whether she was going into labor because I had not prepared anything. The vet told us the estimated delivery date for baby is Mid April. So, I thought I still have time. I was so wrong!!!

I quickly prepared her bed and cage for her and took her upstairs so I could keep a close eye on her. I was cleansing my face and when I came back to the room I sat in front of my laptop. Suddenly I noticed there was no noise or movement frombaby. So I turned around to checked on her. I was so so so extremely (x100) shocked! I don't know if I should post this picture. Well, don't say I didn't warn you. Be prepared... maybe mentally? Or risk seeing the food you just ate in the toilet/sink (or any other place you want to vomit). Lol

Here it goes...

 The first puppy!!!! So shocking to me!

The second puppy followed quite closely!

Blood everywhere. 

All right. Time to stop. Now how about prettier (less disgusting) pictures.
Nah, here you go!

So cute!

Everything went smoothly... it seemed. I was expecting at least four (or more) puppies. Only three came out at around 9 am. My baby seemed to be resting so I went online to get myself prepared to take care of them. My baby rested for more than three hours (Mr. Google showed various results... more than one hour or four hour can be dangerous to the mother). I was worried sick. No one was at home at the time. No more options. I had to take my baby to the vet or else I might risk losing her. I got changed. Took my cash and credit card and debit cards and keys and stuff it all into my pocket. In the other pocket was my super big phone... My baby got into her usual bag. The three puppies were in the paper bag. I carried them and walked all the way to the vet under the very very hot sun (about 15 minutes). Oh, then I remembered I forgot to apply sunblock! I hate the sun! I hate sweating! No choice. My baby is more important to me :)

In the paper bag
Only three puppies!
I took this when I reached the vet.

I was so relieved when I finally reached the clinic. It turned out that my baby was too tired so she was given an injection. About five or ten minutes after the injection she was able to push the last puppy out. Phew... that was lucky or else she might have to go for an operation. A nice lady sent me home after they found out I walked such a long distance to get to the clinic. Lol

I was really thankful everything went well.

My baby is a very good mom. She rarely sleeps because she keep taking care of her babies. She is always tired and sleepy because she have to wake up whenever the babies cry. *I had to wake up as well when they cry loudly to check on them* She is very reluctant to leave her babies alone. Even when she was thirsty and hungry. Of course, I was not able to sleep as well. I (as a grandma...lol) had to take care of both the mama dog and baby dogs. I felt like a zombie.... the puppies were like vampires. Kept sucking blood (milk) from the mama. Plus they suck at the wrong places a lot of the times so my Jellie had a lot of love bites! My baby used to be scared of everything from plastic bags, metal fences, hair dryer and more. When I left her puppy downstairs so she could rest or at least take a nap in our room, she barked at me or cry wanting me to open the door for her to get to her puppies. I tried to scare her with the hair dryer but she was no longer scared of it. I was a little shocked. She was so protective of her babies.

The picture below was sent by my sister when my baby was still young :)
I think our baby was only 6 months old in the picture! Time really flies...

Mommy has the greatest love of all :)
