I started calling up my christian sister, Vivien, who never fails to encourage me and shared with her about how uncomfortable I felt. She prayed over my abdomen and commanded my emotions to be subjected to the HOLY SPIRIT. After which, I felt so much more charged up. Thank GOD for that.

A week had passed and there was no sign of menses. I started feeling a little suspicious and was very tempted to purchase a kit from the pharmacy. However, the thought of facing another failure stopped me from trying anything altogether. Days passed by and I started to experience migraine on my left temper. As such, I made the final decision to see the doctor who prepared a mere panadol prescription for me. I took a day's rest and two days later, I started to be repulsive towards eggs and oranges. At that moment, I just felt that my liking toward certain types of food had changed totally, and deep in my heart, I was hoping that those symptoms could in one way or another relate to pregnancy. Eventually, I made up my mind to get one kit from the pharmacy. However, to my dismay, I could not locate a single pregnancy kit from the pharmacy. I combed the place store-wide, for a total of 3 rounds and there was no sign of any kits on display. In the end, I headed straight to the clinic. The process seemed slower than usual, from taking the urine sample to the testing. The doctor asked me to wait for my name to be called first while he carried out the pregnancy test. The 15 minute wait looked to me like a full day wait and as every second ticked by, I started to get more and more nervous. Deep within me, I was preparing my heart for any negative result from the test. " Noelle Chua Mei Ping!", the nurse directed me to the correct room. As I entered, the bespectacled doctor mumbled something, which I could hardly hear and I asked him to repeat again. He told me the result was positive. Meanwhile, my feet started to ooze out cold sweat and my heart was throbbing so hard that any surrounding noise was totally muffled. I started to message my 'baby' about the good news and broke the good news to my sis as well as Vivien, my close sister in CHRIST
