Mama Miah!

Ultrasound is an important thing to do for every pregnant women, it's not just for checking a baby's gender but it is also used to check the baby's condition and development.

I had my first Ultrasound when I was on my 11 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy. I felt nervous and at the same time excited. I think it was in my 3rd Ultrasound test where we knew that there's a high percentage that our baby is a girl. I think she was shy because she's hiding her gender between her legs.

It was confirmed in my 4th Ultrasound that our baby is a girl. It wasn't that surprising because we had been told in our last ultrasound result that it's probably a girl. I really can't explain how I feel, I got mixed emotions during those times. I feel like crying watching her on the monitor and I almost cried when she looked at my direction and I saw her yawn, it's like she's telling me: "Mommy, I'm sleepy". Awww.... I feel so happy and knowing that she is in good condition made me even more happy. :)

I rarely had photos of me showing my tummy when I was pregnant and this shot is what I love most. I'm on my 7th month here by the way when I attended a Christmas party last December 2011... :)

I was browsing some photos on Pinterest and saw some really cool photos on Maternity Photography. I wish I have thought about this and have a photo-shoot of me and my tummy while I was still pregnant. Regrets... well, at least I got a few shots to keep and reminisce... :)

Anyways, here's are some of the maternity photography shots that I liked most...

Hi there! I want you to meet our little angel, Miel... 

A friend told me that names ending in "el" (like Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, etc.) are your angels sent by God in human form .Then, I thought of my newborn baby and smiled because she is indeed our little angel, who gives us happiness, hope, strength and love. Our life has never been this happier and colorful if she wasn't around and this blog will be our online journal to share to everyone our life's blessing, Athena Miel... :)
