It's that time of the month again!

With (more or less) 52 days to go before my due date and 2 weeks before the Baby Shower, Ren and I have been excitedly creating a wishlist for our little munchkin!

Follow Alex's board For Avery <3

I've created this board on Pinterest for the future Ninongs & Ninangs and also because I really didn't have the time and luxury to register in any mall registry.

If you'll notice, there's not much pink stuff in there.  Ren and I both agreed that we do not like pink to be a dominant color in our baby's things.  

We have different tastes in colors, but agreed on having mostly nautical themed and colors! Plus they're really cute!

We'd love to dress up Avery in those cute little girl sailor outfits until she's this big!

Well, turns out my 7th month is one of the hardest points in my pregnancy (8th and 9th please be good to me, PLEASE!)

So, after finding out the gender of my little munchkin (if you missed out on that news, you can read it here), everything about my health slowly became a problem. First, I was experiencing not only lower back pains, but back pains in general.  Second, there is no right position for me, everything just seems painful after 5mins. I've been having on and off fever and sometime I get chills at night.

One morning everything got really painful, so I decided to text my doctor and ask if I should get myself rushed to the ER. After a very brief conversation, she did say I should get myself to a hospital ASAP.  Thank God for Dra. Flor Nucum, I believe she already took care most of the stuff at the ER even before I arrived.

Upon my arrival at Salve Regina General Hospital, I found out I was experiencing pre-term labor pains.  I was immediately hooked to an IV with Duvadilan to help ease the pain.  When my doctor did the ultrasound, my little Avery was already positioned and ready to come out! It was really a good thing that I was rushed to the hospital early.

I stayed in the hospital for 2 days. It was dreadful and frustrating because I wasn't even allowed to get up to go to the comfort room.   Everything had to be done in bed :(

After 2 days, I was home with a lot of medication and instructions from the doctor.  I was to have a complete bed rest for 15 days. I can no longer do the usual stuff I do daily.  I am not to go out of the house, or bed for that matter. :(

It has been more than a week since I got discharged and I am bored. :( I have been doing and re-doing my MUST HAVE LIST for my delivery since it's pretty much the only thing I can do (Any advice from mom's out there?) and I've just been talking to my little Avery and France.

It's been a dreadful and painful month, but I know this will all be worth. Hang on tight, little Avery! Just two more months to go! <3
