So I changed my blog name to my HALF asian adventure. Guess why! I'm creating a half Asian inside of me right now. Well actually, the "creating" took place a few weeks ago ;) (thanks John) Now he or she (I think its a HE) is growing inside of me.
John and I are just thrilled with this awesome new experience. We have actually been trying to have a baby since we got married, not only because we wanted to and feel its right, but also because my doctor said I should.
you see, I have endometriosis, which is actually a pretty common disorder where the lining of the uterus starts to grow outside of the uterus, causing sores and scar tissue. It's extremely painful in some cases. I've had it for years and its progressively gotten worse. I had surgery for it in September, which didn't seem to do much except give me ugly scars. Supposedly pregnancy will get rid of it, or at least lessen the symptoms. Unfortunately for me, these first 6 weeks or so of my pregnancy have been extremely painful. I've had several tests done though and everything seems to be okay.
Well now that you're all caught up on my physical health, I wanted to tell everyone about my big goal. I want to speak tagalog (filipino) fluently before the baby gets here. That is all.
thanks for reading!
