EMBARRASSING MOMENT at St Lukes Hospital! First Trimester Day in the Life

[Music] i'm not quite sure why i'm starting this vlog because this vlog is clearly going to be more about lucy well it's about both of us isn't it i guess it is parents to be we haven't said that yet that's the first time we've said that welcome to another video this is going to be yesterday it was and i i felt awkward because i'm not yet a father but i almost felt like you can appreciate all the posts of people and stuff yeah there's like a baby next year is going to be my first official father's day um and our family still don't know so we was i was saying happy father's day to my dad we called him he was saying happy father's day to your dad you called him and they still don't know we haven't told them we're going to probably tell them around 11 or 12 weeks yes i think so i mean we are kind of tempted to do it sooner we haven't really decided yet because it's like i keep speaking to my family on facetime and i'm just lying to them because it's like how are you and i'm like yeah what's what's going on not much going on nothing major at all it's like i don't know it's kind of frustrating but yeah i think now that we've had like a scan and we've had some results and stuff like it was more like yeah so today we have had well you can talk about it yeah all right we've had some tests and things and this vlog's basically gonna be like a day in the life of the first trimester lucy's gonna try and talk about how she's feeling a little bit more yeah we thought we're not gonna be able to do any vlogs real time vlogs as in just pick the camera up and film the day and upload it that night in the first trimester because we're not gonna be telling you guys until the second so this is like the chance we have or one of the days we have even though this is gonna be pre-filmed so when you're watching this it's now like a few weeks later probably or like a month or maybe two months i've got no idea what we're even telling this is currently being filmed on the 21st of june yeah 21st of june are you following me from my chest i'm sorry yeah and we got some results we went for some um hospital visits over the last couple of days so we're gonna go through all of that uh give you guys an update on what's going on and things are looking really good things are looking very positive and healthy and we had an appointment with the ob today our doctor she's great she's really good she's so reassuring and she's lovely and she was so it's so funny so i had a contraceptive implant you can see it where i used to be here and that was taken out in late march and when i text her saying i'm pregnant can i book an appointment she was like what you're pregnant already like it's so soon it happened so quickly and then when we came in today she was like the first thing she said was like that was quick guys yeah she was actually quite um surprised not surprised but she was a little happy for us yeah very happy we were pretty lucky i would say we haven't spoken about this maybe we'll do have more of a video about getting pregnant well not this well not not the housing we didn't film that um but like we were very lucky and getting pregnant fast which is amazing because we we had some concerns and worries about that for no real particular reason but you just never know yeah you just you just when it's your first time you just never know um it can take i think like the average is like six months to a year it takes so we for us it took i think we only really tried for like a month it was like the first month that we probably tried we tried we tried in one cycle but kind of on and off yeah and we weren't really sure and then we started tracking it and then increased like the frequency of trying and then it happened so yeah like amazing official month try and we feel very lucky for that obviously i can't give any medical advice but that is purely based on our experiences um but i'm going to cook some breakfast quickly i'm very hungry haven't eaten today what do we have we have some toast we've got a bit of garlic on the side to flavor it yum we can do some scrambled eggs on toast so i'll talk through everything in a bit we're gonna have breakfast first and then we'll pick the camera back up later and give you guys a proper update so i obviously can't have anything raw anymore i have to have my meat cooked all the way through steak and things i can't have any raw fish sushi's out the window and that includes eggs as well so this is george's eggs how i like my eggs for me i'm just gonna incinerate them in the pan for a while and just have some nice hard eggs which is fine i don't mind it actually luckily a lot of the food that i eat is okay um i'm not missing anything too much there's some cheeses i'm missing out on and like cold cuts and salami and things i would love but i can't have because i've got to have it all cooked through but i can't have like cooked cheese and cooked meats like that so it's not too bad just heading out taking my daily folic acid quickly before we go i don't know i've got my mask on to take that doesn't help does it and i've also been recommended if i want to take a prenatal vitamins i can or i can just take them naturally through food i've just been doing that recently and just having those vegetables to get everything i need but i might buy some just so i i know i'm definitely guaranteeing it uh if that makes sense so i need to find some that have the right stuff in so i need to do a bit of research i bought this hoodie from zara and it is the most comfortable thing in the world so but it is so hot but it's so so comfortable we're also trying to find ways to make vlogging a little bit easier during um kind of what we're going through because bringing the big camera around with us is impractical so as you can see just a little gopro and we're thinking of getting a canon g7x just to use we do have a small sony camera but i get really tired now like holding out the big camera my arms like because i haven't done like a gym workout in so long i probably asked quite a lot true our main camera setup is heavy and we want to start capturing smaller moments like on vlogs like today smaller more candid raw moments to share with you guys and to mainly document for ourselves really as well and if you guys enjoy watching then great [Music] and vlogging in general has been different for us because we've obviously still wanted to try and make the same level of videos and the same type of videos that we make um and we've been on a few trips and stuff but lucy gets way more tired than she did before yeah and we also don't really want to be mixing with too many people or being exposing ourselves to too many people we said no to a lot of things yeah because if either of us got sick now that would be so so bad um even worse so so we don't really want to see too many people we don't want to do too many things yeah at the moment we can't really explain why so we've seen some comments and vlogs saying like you guys aren't doing much anymore where the travel vlogs come on you can travel now what's going on yeah um we did that beach trip and we were so like we were completely on our own the whole trip we didn't really speak to anyone yeah and it was really nice because we weren't worried about anything but other opportunities we've had would have involved mingling with a lot more people which obviously we don't want to do yeah so saying no to a few things at the moment and we can't explain why currently so we just sound anti-social but that's what it comes down to that's kind of the reality we have to do what's right for lucy yeah look after her and do what he can my arm's even hurting i'll do this i need to have it down here [Music] tiny black kitten i can't really zoom in on there oh tiny i don't know oh it's so tiny let's crop if we can oh they love it as well i love seeing people that like cats and being nice cats and by the way only coffee for me lucy can no longer have coffee or she can have a very very small amount in the morning yeah it's weird i feel tired very tired all the time but it's also like i often feel like i it's not like a heart palpitation but it's like i'm suddenly short for breath and i'm like oh if i feel like i've done something strenuous but it's like standing up it is crazy like it comes and goes same with the sickness same with the like every symptom i've had is very up and down it's not all the time i do feel sick pretty much all the time um and i'm on week nine today exactly so it's so satisfying the week starts for us on a monday so i it's monday today and i'm nine weeks pregnant today it's so satisfying that it's exactly on a monday um so it's gonna be really easy to kind of keep track throughout it um but honestly i've forgotten again oh yeah so apparently the morning sickness peaks week nine and ten so that's going to be great the next two or three weeks are gonna be great but hopefully it won't be too bad i was only sick once so hopefully it won't be too bad i've also started to find i can't wear a lot of my clothes we said in the last we said in a video that we filmed from the scan my clothes are kind of make i don't know if i'm actually showing or not yet or whether i'm bloated um you can start showing around now some people do show a bit earlier than others and apparently if you're slimmer you show earlier than if you're a bit bigger um like before the pregnancy so i am starting to show a little bit i think but i don't know if it is showing or not but basically a lot of my clothes kind of make it very obvious i wear a lot of tight t-shirts i wear crop tops i wear jeans that's kind of my normal look and i we went out shopping yesterday just to try and find something i couldn't find any maternity shops here or any areas in the shops that sell maternity clothes and it's also awkward because if anyone that watches our videos sees me looking at maternity clothes i'll be like huh and obviously we haven't announced it yet it doesn't really matter obviously but it we have to kind of be careful i mean i could be shopping for a friend or something but it's less obvious like maternity clothes if i was buying baby clothes it might look like it's for a friend i don't know found like two things didn't i but yeah i don't know good news and bad news what they had no coconut water said coconut water but it was imported from vietnam you haven't had that was it like a can there's a carton okay i just i don't know i prefer it fresh from the philippines they usually have a fresh one locally but i did have this oh really that's annoying i just bought loads no it's not annoying because this i can use straight away and the delivery is coming in four days oh yeah so that will see me through the rest of the day and then i've got the peanut butter that we like keto peanut butter so we're not going to arabica now yeah we're going to arabica now of course we are what a silly question i was just trying to say about my clothes i got this dress it's like two sizes too big for me normally i think i've got room to grow in it a little bit and it's so big it kind of just falls on top of me so you can't see anything and i got another one as well the same thing if anyone's got any recommendations for maternity clothes let me know because especially that you can order online to save me going into shops and revealing our big secret oh look mcdonald's have got the purple thingy up for a bts mail people keep wanting us to try the bts meal yeah i wouldn't say no maybe we could if you guys want it i'm not gonna say no no okay [Music] hey thank you very much just got a snack some rice cakes with peanut butter and banana made by george george is the best he's been very helpful he's just edited a vlog i think and he's doing some more work out there and i came in the bedroom for like five minutes and then completely crashed so i'm just currently lying down watching some netflix have been for over an hour i'm so tired and it's crazy even if i sleep in the day now i can easily still sleep nine or ten hours at night and i'm very lucky to be able to do this and i know a lot of people in different situations have like jobs that they can't just nap during um that george has been really really amazing and it means i can rest as much as i need to rest and yeah i'm just in here but enjoying this food so i had the scrambled eggs on toast for breakfast i don't think we filmed lunch we had some soup just to get as many vegetables in as possible i made a huge pot of chicken soup that literally used every vegetable in the world and chickpeas and lentils which are really good as well for protein and iron and fiber and things chucked it all together yesterday and then we just had that with a cheese and ham toasted sandwich that we dipped into the soup it was really nice and then i'm eating this now and then for dinner i think we're gonna have some chicken and maybe some vegetables again some pasta and things eating quite a lot but i think that's good i've actually i think i said before i've lost around one or two kilograms as opposed to put on weight but i'm not sure how but there we go i want to enjoy this now then maybe in a bit i'll talk you guys through the hospital visit earlier because i still haven't i've just not i just haven't yet um we can give you like a proper update on everything um but until then i'm gonna enjoy my snack all right guys it's now the next day last night we watched some netflix we had some dinner and fell asleep so my bad um yeah it's now the next day and i guess this is a two two days in the life as opposed to one but i didn't want to end this video without giving you guys like a full update um after the trip to the hospital so that's what i'm going to do now i'm also going to paint my nails while i speak to you guys quickly before i do that i put this on every day and night at the moment this here and i've tried this i've also tried an oil i think oils annoy me a little bit more i feel a bit sticky and a bit hot especially when we go outside this is the cream i feel like it rubs in a bit better um so i'm just going to pop some of this on quickly i also put it in a couple of other areas that i won't be filming me do and i'm just going to do that and i'll be right back yeah i've just been reading and i've basically heard that i just need to keep my bump and any other kind of stretch mark prone areas as moisturized as possible throughout the pregnancy even before there's like loads of stretching that's happened it you need to in it really helps to increase the elasticity in the skin so that they're less likely to happen when you do get bigger um although i have stretched marks already before this and i don't care i think stretch marks in this case are just going to show how incredible the human body is and i think it's beautiful and i think it shows the journey that you've been on and that your your body's been a house to a human i still can't believe it i wake up in the morning and i can't believe it and i just imagine hearing that heartbeat again and it just makes me so happy so there is no shame in stretch marks whatsoever any type of stretch mark doesn't matter this cream for me is more about the comfort side and if it feels less tight it's going to be more elastic it's going to be more comfortable so that's the main reason i'm doing it um anyway i thought i've got so much to say it's crazy because like we don't film this is only like the second or third video we filmed uh knowing um i feel like there's loads to catch up on these have been my savior when i've been feeling very sick matches my t-shirt i'm just having chewing gum several pieces per day this is a sugar-free one because i don't want to just have loads of extra sugar it's not good for my teeth but it just takes the kind of sick feeling out of my mouth that really helps okay so basically doctor basically told us that we need to get some blood tests done i also needed to have a consulting my eye is twitching why is my eye twitching we also needed to have a consultation with her after the ultrasound so i said to her i've had the ultrasound can i book in all the blood tests so i can just come and see you in one visit we can go through everything for the blood test you have to do an eight hour fast for food and drink that's for the blood sugar and i think i had nine different blood tests and a urine test or two urine tests i think it was 10 or 11 tests in total and it was expensive we did not we basically had the test done at st luke's in bgc it's around the corner from us and we didn't realize how expensive it was i just assumed that that was a place to do it because that's where the doctor was but it turns out i could have gone anywhere and got the test and then gone back to her to go through them and it would have saved thousands of pesos like let me know if you guys want a full breakdown of costs and things that we've spent so far and if you're interested in that i can go through like the full experience and the cost of anything done at st i mean it's like a very good private hospital i understand why it's expensive but it really shocked me she told me the number and i was like so let me know if you want me to reveal all the numbers we don't mind talking about that kind of thing because it might help somebody else in the future um it's been a great hospital and experience has been so good so it's fine another thing is that the pathology so the blood where i did all the blood tests and the samples it's actually opened 24 7. so we went around 9 00 p.m one night we had lunch about 1 p.m and then we went there about 9 p.m so it was an eight-hour fast and i was so hungry i didn't have any water either and i've been drinking way more water i drink a lot of water anyway i drink like one and a half of these a day and this is 2.2 liters so i'm drinking like over three liters of water a day normally and i just had to stop and i was so thirsty but we got there i was very hungry but there was no queue so we were there at like discord 9pm at night no queue no one there got my little sticker my number straight in filled out the forms had the test done went to do the urine sample let me tell you a quick funny story guys imagine imagine this you you've stopped drinking water for eight hours you've peed several times in that time you're empty you've got nothing left in you you're dried out right hello please can you put this much urine sample in here huh so i was sat on on this is really embarrassing but i'm going to be open very embarrassing i took an hour and a half to do it 90 minutes we're in the hospital till about 11 pm 90 minutes to do a urine sample because i didn't drink so george went to the cafeteria basi i didn't realize that i didn't have to be on a water fast for this test it was only for the other tests so george went to the cafeteria and got me three bottles of water i downed all three and then i walked around the hospital for a bit then i went to a different toilet right there also the openings like this it's the tiniest opening ever right they give you and i i don't have anything to aim with i'm not a guy so yeah anyway eventually did it um the results it was super handy because it was so quick and at nighttime we just snuck in it was so nice no cues no loads of people and it was really good so the results were ready like the next day or a few out a few hours later for some and a few days later for others but then monday morning came around i think we had the tests on thursday evening monday morning came around went to the hospital picked up the pathology results picked up the ultrasound results um just all in one go from the areas then went to see the doctor and she basically just went through all of the results there was them like hiv tests hepatitis tests finding out my blood type to figure out whether or not i needed to take an injection i can't remember the name of it but there's some like crazy medical thing where if you're a think it's like a negative blood type um you have to take an injection or a drug so that you [Music] balance off something and so that if you're your next pregnancy it's you're less likely to miscarry i think um but i don't know the technical word but yeah that's that um and then then i went to yeah and she basically went through them all she said i can see you're very healthy or young and it all looks really good she spoke about a few things i can and can't do but i already kind of knew them because i've just been doing my own research i'm just thinking this video is so not everyone's cup of tea is it there's gonna be some people watching like i don't care about your blood tests but it's my life it's real life guys it's what i'm talking about today um anyway so yeah she said she was really happy the two things there was a thing picked up on the ultrasound that i already knew was that the baby's hungry is a little bit high so it's like 173 and it should be under 160 i think at all times but they said at the very start of the pregnancy that it's okay to be a bit higher but she's put me in for a ultrasound just to check that it's gone down in two weeks time she's not concerned at all at this point but it's just something that they want to make sure has gone down um so it's fine nothing to worry about but it's all good and so we'll have another it's actually quite nice we get to see the baby again at 11 weeks and hear the heartbeat again so we'll have that in two weeks from now the only thing that we're finding is quite funny i guess is that we've been recognized several times at the hospital and it's fine like just being in the hospital we could be there for any reason like i said before when when the doctor when the person taking blood is like are you pregnant and i'm like yeah and you know if she knows who we are i don't know it's weird because we've had like a few comments on videos saying i just saw george and lucy lucy was wearing a white dress george was wearing this at this time at this date in this part of the hospital and we're like oh my god it's just kind of nerve-wracking because we don't want people to find out before we're ready to kind of announce it because it's still quite fairly and we still haven't decided when to tell family we're so tempted just to do it um i mean we kind of may as well at this point but i don't know it's just so it's so exciting but it's just funny people seeing us we we literally walked out of the doctor's office and george was like i think they know who we are because they were like pointing so yeah people might might have already started guessing but i could be there for anything so it's probably all good and it doesn't really matter if like three people find out does it right nearly finished i'm gonna end this video here because i'm actually flashing red battery um but thank you so much for watching today thank you for coming along for a two day in the life um we'll see
