it's just a dream

I woke up crying this morning 'coz of the dream (or nightmare) I had.  I dreamt about hubby hooking up with someone else.  It kept playing over and over again on my dream just like a broken record until I finally woke up crying.  I am glad that reality sank in after a few minutes but it still bothered me.


The other day, I dreamt of a 'Zuma-like' setting with a cat and a snake.  The cat was trying to kill the snake and I pushed the cat on to the cliff to save the snake.  I woke up screaming with my heart beating furiously 'coz in my dream, the cat clung on to my arm!  It was scary!  I really felt the cat scratching my arms, it hurt so bad.


Dreams can sometimes mess up your thinking.  The worst dream I had was when I was pregnant.  I can still remember it vividly.  There was a head of a live dog and it kept on bouncing and bouncing excitedly on the floor.  Again, I woke up crying.  Who would not cry when you are pregnant and kept on dreaming about weird things? Well, found out that this really happens to pregnant women.  The weird dreams stopped when I had the miscarriage.  Blame it on the raging hormones of a pregnant woman!  


Now, I am taking some hormonal meds as part of my fertility work up.  I hope this doesn't bring in weird dreams again even with the 2 dreams I mentioned earlier (a sure sign it's coming back again!).  But if I am given assurance that everything will be OK after taking these meds, then, I wouldn't mind having those weird dreams (or nightmares)... as long as they remain dreams only.

Rescue Run, SM MOA - Oct 2009

I participated in the Rescue Run last Saturday.  I had fun shedding some pounds and meeting new friends, not to mention, helping the typhoon victims too!  Here's more info about the rescue run:  http://run4change.com/rescuerun

For now, let the pictures do the talking! =)

something is wrong with blogger.. hmmm

we're getting serious

I had my OB check up again with Dra. Manalo last Monday.  She got to see my tests results again and finally confirmed that I have elevated androgen (male hormones) in my body.  Am I turning into a guy, eh?  hehehe! Anyway, these androgen hormones are resulting to not-so-good quality eggs from me; hence, the miscarriages.  She told me that the problem is not on me but on our babies that's why the pregnancies are not continuing.    

She gave me an oral steroid to take for 15 days to lower down my androgen hormones plus some fertility pills.  Being the curious-me, I immediately researched on the steriod medicine that I will be taking.  The condition I have is, nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia.  You can know more about it here:  http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/congenital-adrenal-hyperplasia/DS00915.

On another note,  I am sharpening my cooking skills with my extra time =).  I plan to impress hubby when he comes back for a vacation! Haha!  =)  Wish me luck!

back to regular programming...

I'm back!!! After sooo many days of no update, I'm back!   I have been busy with my last few days at Big Blue trying to close some things with a project I was handling.  Plus, to add, typhoons coming into the Philippines kept me, I mean 'us', busy with all the cleaning, etc.

Hopefully, you'll see more updates from me moving forward...  Watch out for it! =)
