Wow! Buti nga kayo hindi kayo mataba. Ako, 190 lbs ako nung nanganak 4 months ago! HAHAHA My daughter was 2 weeks late. Super laki ko talaga! Buti na nga lang nakayanan ko magwork hanggang nanganak ako. :-D

Wow! Di ka ba nahirapan? Ako hirap ng tumayo at matulog. Di pa ganun kalaki tyan ko..what more on my 8 or 9 months. Pero at least nakaraos ka na. But I'm really enjoying my pregnancy Kahit medyo mahirap..

Eve, I am still on the process of canvassing cheaper 4D. Wish me luck!

Ruby, oo mahal dito ang ultrasound lalo na kung ang pipiliin mo ay yung 4D pero kahit mahal yun eh feeling ko sulit naman hindi ko alam kung magkano yung 3D kasi kasama na yung 3D ultrasound fee ko dun sa pregnancy package fee eh pero i am sure much cheaper yun compare sa 4D. Alam mo sa akin nga eh 6 tubes yung kinuhang blood sample from me, feeling ko naubos yung dugo after that lol!

Kailangan ba talga nasa 20 weeks bago malaman ang gender ni baby? Kasi when I went to see my OB (which is nasa 12th week of pregnancy ako nun) sabi nya on the 16th week of pregnancy will be my first ultrasound at malalaman na daw gender ni baby nun Feeling ko nga din mashado ata maaga yung pra malaman ang gender eh pero ewan ko wait ko na lang kung talagang makikita nga gender hehe.

Pink baka pwede pa tawaran yan hehehe. Baka makikita na ang gender nyan as long as cooperative si Baby. Yong sa amin 19 weeks and 3 days...yon medyo matagal kasi ayaw bumukaka ni Baby talagang iniipit nya yong legs nya..kailangan pang alugin ng ultrasonographer yong tummy ko para lang ibuka nya yong legs nya. Di ko naman masisi si Baby kaw ba naman silipan di ba

loka ka talaga

j_e_w_e_l_l_y_n, madali ka bang nakabawi sa weight after mong manganak?

[Loolie 56]

im 90 lbs and 14 weeks preggy...

i was 80 pounds when i got here january this year then i gain 10 pounds so 90 pounds then i weighed 93 lbs when we went to the doctor then when we went to the doctor again i was 89 pounds...now im 90 pounds...

Kumakain ka ba? hehehhehe...90 lbs ako nong mga 12 weeks preggy ako. Yong last visit ko sa Ob yong 105 lbs na. Kain kasi ako ng kain..tapos tong asawa ko pa tuwing after nya magwalking laging may pasalubong na donut. Pero sabi vng Dr. ok daw yong gain weight ko. I really don't worry gaining weight...magpapayat na lang after manganak

Evelyn

of course naman kumakain ako noh hehehehe...sa pinas ako ang pinakamalakas kumain sa amin...yun nga lang nagtataka mama ko bakit daw ako di tumataba...wala naman akong worm kasi napurga na ako hehehehe..

pati hubby ko he also wonder why i dont get fat when i eat so much.

Hi Eve,

Feeling ko hindi ka naman mataba eh saka tingin ko eh mukhang tama lang yung laki ng tyan mo sa 5 months pregnancy Thanks nga pla for sharing your pic Have a safe delivery

Eversince kasi ngayon lang ako bumigat ng ganyan. Tapos sabi ng Dr. from now on daw dapat mag gain ako 1lbs every week. Pero ok lang basta para kay Baby. Btw...may nakita ako dito na package ng 3d and 4d na ultrasound bale

$125 at payag naman si hubby na mag pa 4d ultrasound kami:) Call ako tomorrow for the appointment.

Evelyn

Lyn,

Ang mura nman ng nahanap mong package for ultrasound. Sa Dr ko ang 3D lang is $1,000.00 buti nalang 100% covered sa insurance namin kung hindi, na molubi na ata kami ngayon. My first and second visit cost $2,800 already but we pay nothing. My vitamins (prescription) $50/month that's the only expenses we have so far. Healthy nman sana akong nag buntis peru sabi pa rin ng dr ko na kailangan ko raw ang prescription vitamins.

Good luck sa lahit na mga buntis!

sabi ng nanay ko, pag-buntis kumain daw ng ice cream para matibay ipin ng baby... totoo ba? or bawal ang ice cream?

Ako din lakas lumapa at di talaga ako tumataba...ngayon lang talaga nong nagbuntis nako. Pero sige lang baka in a few months mag gain ka rin ng weight kasi lalaki na ang tummy mo, bobbies kasi magkakamilk ka na at yong uterus and placenta

Princess, bakit naman parang milyones ang presyo ng ultrasound sa Dr. mo? Sobrang mahal naman yata. Yong ultrasound ko sa DR. free sya and every visit. We pay $15 only as our co-pay. Yong 4d naman sa ibang ultrasound clinic sya kasi wala yatang 4d yong hospital kung san ako insured(KAISER PERMANENTE) so naghanap ako online buti na lang meron dito malapit sa amin at yon nga price nila. So ok na rin kasi yong binigay nga sakin ni Pink na site mahal din yong 3d and 4d nila. Beside pa ba sa prenatal vitamins mo yong prescribed vitamins na ininom mo? Ako di na nagtake ng other vitamins since complete naman yong sa prenatal...kain na lang ako ng kain ng fruits and drinks orange juice everyday.

Goodluck din sayo and enjoy it

Evelyn

Not sure kung totoo yan...pero ako kain kasi ako ng kain ng ice cream when im few weeks pregnant..Sana totoo no...di lakas ng ipin ni baby ko.

I forgot to share nga pala and sana ay hindi pa huli ang lahat. When my OB gave me prescription vitamins eh she mentioned me that I can go to any Meijer that has pharmacy and Marsh that has pharmacy then show my prescription to them and they will give me free vitamins. So we went straight to Meijer after we see our OB and she is right I got free vitamins and I didn't pay any single cent.

I hope this info might help

PS. one year supply pala yung free vitamins na yun. just show them the empty bottle then they will refill it again

oo nga pala pink lalo na pag boy magiging baby, makikita na sya earlier and if nasa right position, i get free prenatal vitamins too,

hay kahit na 100% covered lahat ng insurance namin ang delivery ko , I would still prefer giving birth in pinas!!!

GIRLS sino ba ang naka try ng epidural dito? how was it? may side effects bah? my first was wlang epi kaya na feel ko lahat ng sakit,

pero dito during the orientation i was told that i can choose to have it or not pwede ring CS if gusto ko..

[j_e_w_e_l_l_y_n 0]

Kapag me epidural, wala kang mararamdamang sakit. Ang maramdaman mo lang ay manhid ang katawan mo mula baywang pababa. Hindi mo mararamdaman na nagcocontract ka na, kasi masakit ang contraction, sasakit tapos mawawala, paulit-ulit. Kelangan magpa lagay ka na ng epidural bago mag 6cm ang cervix mo, kasi kung hindi, hindi na pwede. Malaking tulong sa akin ang epidural kasi hindi ko kaya ung contraction. :-D Yung mga hindi nagpapaepidural super tapang, hindi ko kaya talaga!

[j_e_w_e_l_l_y_n 0]

Tungkol sa kung nahirapan ako nung nagbubuntis ako dahil sobrang laki ko, OO hehe. Lagi dapat kasama ko asawa ko kapag nasa bahay para tulungan ako tumayo mula sa kama at sa bath tub. Sobrang bigat sa pakiramdam pero masaya kasi alam mo lumalaki baby mo. Sa trabaho, mahirap kasi lagi akong nakatayo pero as much as possible umuupo ako kapag walang customer hehehe

Medyo nawala ung weight ko pero mataba pa rin so kelangan pa rin mag lose after ko manganak. Mas okay sana kung normal delivery at breastfeed ang baby para mas mag lose ng weight. Ang nangyari kasi sa akin ayaw lumabas ng baby ko, 2 weeks late na tapos na induce ako at ayaw pa rin lumabas kaya CS ang paraan para lumabas. Nung nanganak ako, wala talagang gatas lumabas sakin kahit anong gawin ko. Sana next time na mabuntis ako normal delivery na at breastfeed ang baby. :-D

Hello sa lahat ng expectant moms dito. Pwede maki join, I'm 36 weeks preggy din and 4 weeks more to go makikita ko na baby boy ko. So far in my pregnancy was all good, aside from the first 3 months i have morning sickness, i lost some weight, but then i gained more weight when it was over (morning sickness).

I have read all the replies and post in this topic and want to add some more...we've got our 4-in-1 convertible crib from Once Upon A Child store for $80.00, although it was slightly used pero ok pa naman and wala cyang scratches para nga syang brand new! and a changing table that goes with the crib for $20.00. We bought our baby stuffs/clothes from TJMax on sale, kc pag nag sale sila bagsak presyo talaga. My mom in law bought us a stroller and an infant car seat ( a set ) from Kmart and she got a good deal too since she bought them on sale, its a Disney brand..Since Kmart has a Layaway plan so sinabihan ko husband ko na kunin din namin yong ibang stuff na kasama sa set na binili ng mom nya, like swing set, pack-n-play, high chair and since di naman namin kaagad kinakailangan we put them in Layaway, sale din kc at saka ayoko din na gumastos ng biglaan for one stuff.

Tama ka Pink, i've got my Prenatal Vitamins at Meijer din kc yon binigay na prescription ng OB ko and its free so grab ko na kaysa naman gagasto pa ako. hehehe! I didnt get any stuff from WIC coz alam namin na di kami qualified, at saka diba ang husband natin nag file ng I-864, Affidavit of Support Under Section 213A of the Act, nakasaad kc doon na:

"This form is a contract between a sponsor and the U.S.Government. Completing and signing this form makes you the sponsor. You must show on this form that you have enough income and/or assets to maintain the intending immigrant(s) and the rest of your household at 125 percent of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. By signing Form I-864, you are agreeing to use your resources to support the intendingimmigrant(s) named in this form, if it becomes necessary. The submission of this form may make the sponsored immigrant ineligible for certain Federal, State, or local means-tested public benefits, because an agency that provides means-tested public benefits will consider your resources and assets as available to the sponsored immigrant in determining his or her eligibility for the program. If the immigrant sponsored in this affidavit does receive one of the designated Federal, State or local means-tested public benefits, the agency providing the benefit may request that you repay the cost of those benefits. That agency can sue you if the cost of the benefits provided is not repaid."

To Everyone congratulations and Good luck sa malapit ng mag due.

I have decided na walang epidural I want to experience everything. Kahit anong sakit pa yan. Don naman sa bundok kung san ako ipinanganak wala namang epidural so yon na lang ang iisipin ko ehhehehe. And I'm really hoping talaga na magka milk ako kasi gusto ko rin ma experience mag breastfeed. But we will see kung time na..
