My Amazing Pregnancy-2

Now, the baby's age comes to 21 weeks. It means that I am reaching the middle of the second trimester as well as of my pregnancy. The terror of nausea has been passed smoothly. I mean, I didn't face any trouble causes something to the baby, except the fact that, there is still no weight gain. I was 56 kgs before the the stick told me that I carry a baby. 55 kgs in the second month, 54 in third to forth months. The previous doctor was almost mad and assumed that the cause of this weight decrease was my laziness to pick any food for my baby. She said that I shouldn't be selfish to my baby.

Some of my friends also told me that I should eat more than before and I should learn to give my baby what it needs.I desperately told them that I've been trying to eat more than before and that I never touch junk food or any other unhealthy food ever since I was told to be pregnant. But to my surprise they seemed already believed that I am a lazy mommy-to-be who doesn't try enough to overcome the nausea and doesn't care with my baby's growth. Unfortunately, the doctor and my hubby sometimes think so.

On a not-quite-busy Friday I managed to to get permission to go home earlier from my office so that I can see the doctor (other doctor) accompanied by my husband who has taken a leave from his office . I told my boss and he, without any hesitation granted me his signature.

The doctor started to put his focus on monitor. He said that the head of the baby is now positioned in the bottom, the hands and feet are normal, the heart is normal as well as every other parts of body. I asked him the weight and length, but he told me to be patient because he is currently analyzing something. My eyes were fixed on his expression, my heart seriously beat faster than ever. No.. I hope there is no something bad happens to my baby..no..

A wide smile appears on the doctor's face.. "bird..", surprised, only one word came out from my mouth "a boy?".."yes.." said the doctor happily, "it's already clear". Alhamdulillah... I never think of a certain sex, I only wish that my baby is normal, physically, psychologically. Oh well, to be honest, when I am with my nephews I think that it will be cool if I have one, but, whenever I go to baby store, oh my god.. baby dresses are so cuteeee.... It was different with my husband. Once I asked his wish, he said that it doesn't matter whether it is a boy or girl, but he frankly expect a boy. We were out of the room and wait for the midwife's calling. My husband's face was weird. He smiled happily, it was not a smile, I think it was more like giggle. Giggling, he covered his face with my jacket. He was so happy to tell his sister, so we went to his sister's house. My sister in law and her husband were so happy as well, but they were very honest to say that actually they wished a girl, and our nephews also wished a girl. hahha..

Whether a girl or a boy I hope he/she will be the light of our path to Jannah.. ammiiinnn...
