Last Saturday was my son's 2nd birthday. We didn't have any kiddie party for him. The three of us just went on our usual stroll at SM North EDSA. Had our family photo shoot taken at Pic A Boo in The Block, had lunch at KFC, and Trev rode the Carousel after. Before going home, we bought a birthday cake for him at Red Ribbon. Had some pictures taken at home, made some wishes and blew his candle. The next day, we brought Trev to iPlay and he played for one hour. Then he rode the Carousel again (he loves it kasi). It was very simple but our little toddler was very happy. Maybe next year, we can throw a simple party for him. :-)
I'll post about the details of our simple celebration next. For the mean time, I would like to post my labor story. This is the first time I am going to post this. I wrote this a few days after giving birth because I didn't want to forget anything. I want to cherish and treasure each moment. When Trev grows up, I would like for him to know how he was born. Hmm, I wonder how he'd feel like when he reads this.
This is very raw. I didn't edit anything because I wanted it to sound like that day, after I gave birth to our adorable son.

Warning: Very loooong post.
Oct 22 - Prenatal Checkup. I was IE'd by my OB, sabi niya sarado pa daw ang cervix ko at floating pa si baby. Sabi niya kailangan ko daw talaga maglakad lakad para bumaba si baby. Actually, the previous week pa niya ako pinaglalakad lakad pero di ko pa kinarir kasi I was only on my 36th week and natatakot akong mapreterm. When she checked my fundic height, estimated weight ni baby was 6.5-6.8 lbs na so I shouldn't eat too much na daw, else baby will grow bigger and mahihirapan daw akong ideliver siya normally.
