Like I said yesterday, my wife is already at the beginning of her second trimester so the fertilized egg to an embryo development stage is done. I supposed to track the changes from then on, but for the purpose of those new fathers-to-be, here’s what is happening during the first trimester of pregnancy. The First [...]

Immediately asked my wife last night when I got home from work if our baby is getting better. She said that the fever is almost out. Good news. The only thing we have to take care of now is the cough and cold. This morning when I wake up, I checked my son’s temperature and [...]
As I prepare myself for work this morning, I felt my son’s forehead and it’s still hot. Today is the 6th day of his fever. Good thing today is my last day of work and will not be back by Monday night. I’ll bring him back to his Pediatrician tomorrow if the fever’s still there. [...]
