Episode 31 First Pregnancy
The nausea and dizziness from my pregnancy that had entered the 15th week or about 3 months, finally slowly disappeared. Continued examination to dr. Erka also did not experience any obstacles, the condition of my fetus developing normally made me excited. My appetite is starting to return to normal. My mother, who was happy with this news, sent me all sorts of health supplements for my maiden pregnancy.
Supplement production of Uncle Sam's country, which is clearly not cheap, became the second choice of my parents for almost 5 years. Although the price is expensive, but for my parents it was never a problem because it was intended for the health of our family, especially now when I was pregnant with my parents' 2nd grandchild.
Both of my parents are really happy, because when I got married, Mas Verdi's wife also tested positive for her first child.
"Lin, don't forget the supplement is taken every day. Also read the dose for one drink. For calcium, it can be a day to 6 tablets, if needed," said my mother on the phone.
"What does it mean?" my many.
"Yes, the greater the content will be the heavier burden on your bones. Your bones need more calcium intake, to support your weight that will continue to grow until later delivery. So later usually, it will feel sore in the back or even until the pain. Back and waist pain is a subscription to pregnant women," explained the mother.
Not finished with the supplement that is somehow in number, Tyo comes with a special milk for pregnant women.
"Mas, I don't like milk, taste it, even more nausea, but the smell is already wanting to escape," I protested to Tyo.
"It's for the mother and the baby. Honey, now eat and drink for 2 people. Come on, let the dedenya be healthy, the mother is also healthy. Please?" pinta Tyo with her puppy eyes that made me accept her gift.
"May be drunk cold, right?" my many.
"Can, cold can, warm can too" Tyo replied.
"I make ice," I continued.
Tyo smiled as he looked at me after I followed his words to consume the pregnancy milk he just bought.
But when I checked my body, the doctor said something.
"The weight of his mother is normal, but the weight of his fetus is still lacking. This estimated birth only about 2.5-2.8 kg. The milk is consumed?"
"That's one day, Doc. Very nice, Doc," I replied that made dr. Erman laughs.
"If you do not like milk, can be replaced from other foods or drinks, which contain milk is quite high. I like ice cream, right? Well, it can be replaced with ice cream, yes hoses are the same milk. Ice cream whose milk content is quite high is Ball's ice cream," explained dr. Erman made a smile.
"Can I change the ice cream, Doc? really can?" my many.
"Yes, I can."
After that, the traveling ice cream maker who only came 2 times a week was my subscription.
My maiden pregnancy, actually not too troublesome, because I did not experience cravings or want something very that must be followed immediately, but still as before. It's just, lately my body feels all the pain, especially in the bones in the back. I also follow the mother's advice by adding calcium consumption. Thank God after giving it every day, the pain in my back gradually disappeared.
But because of Tyo's concern about the condition of my pregnancy, then he sought for me an ART to clean the house and wash clothes.
"His name is Ms. Sulis, the wife of the farm employee. Later in the afternoon he came here, before starting work tomorrow morning, yes acquaintances first, all of you see what the task is," said Tyo during the afternoon break.
"Let him who cleans equally holy, from 7 am to 2 pm or after work at home," continued Tyo.
I felt relieved, because I was finally able to rest for a while during this pregnancy.
I also think, after all, cleaning the house and washing clothes is not a homework that I like, but is an obligation that I must do. So with ART, I can relax a lot and do my hobby, which is baking.
After having an oven, almost every day I bake something, whether bread, cake or even chicken. This also affects Tyo's weight gain.
"I feel pregnant, but why did the weight rise so drastically Mas?" candaku while serving banana bread that I just finished baking.
"Eatya do not use feelings, anyways if every day is served bread, sponge, not yet another snack, can not follow round?" tyo answered while eating the bread I served him.
"Yang, I do not give ART so that Darling can rest, why even make this make it? Don't be so great, Yang."
"Laaa I'm the boss if I don't say anything. Cook me just told to be quiet. Then I make bread, can Mrs Sulis take home for her family" I replied.
Tyo also finally let me do activities that I like, because in addition to helping eliminate my saturation also adds to my creativity in the kitchen.
Month after month passed, until he finally entered the third trimester. The birth plan was also discussed by both of us.
"Darling, want to give birth here or in Jakarta?" ask Tyo.
"According to Mas, meningan here or in Jakarta?" askaku.
"If according to Mas yaa, in Jakarta."
"Yowes, fix it in Jakarta. After all, this is the first child, I am blind to take care of a newborn baby, must be managed by the mother first, to be safe," I said.
"Later try to ask for the cut how," said Tyo.
"Eh ntar Mas, the cut is fitting I want to give birth, let longer nemenin in Jakarta. I called my mom, huh" I said, calling my mom on my phone.
"Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumsalam."
"Where is Lin your condition now?" ask mother.
"Thank God be good, ma'am."
"Oiya, what date is your estimated delivery?"
"Hmmm around May 10-15" I replied.
"How many weeks is it now?" ask mother.
"It's been 30 weeks" I replied.
"Try you ask if you check, when it is safe for you to go to Jakarta, so you can give birth here, then Mr and Mother will pick you up in Medan. So later let Tyo take you to Medan, so later you have enough time off after you give birth," said the mother who makes me happy.
"Just want it, if I give birth in Jakarta, how?"
"No need. Yes, obviously you have to give birth here until later your baby can be taken to the garden," replied the mother.
"Makasiii ibuu," I said.
