hay, katuwa naman talaga panoorin pictures ng mga babies dito ...ang ku-cute super! mas lalo tuloy akong naaatat na makitang nakangiti ang baby namin...

anyways, mga mommies, i have a few questions...

1.) i have read on the internet that having trouble sleeping at night is normal during (early) pregnancy...kaso, halos hindi ako makatulog every night even after having a glass of hot milk (as suggested), im having to force myself to sleep...any suggestion?

2.) i have been noticing lately, that my stomach (yes my tummy) farts a lot (excuse me mommies)...this never happened to me before, just now that im pregnant...is it normal?

3.) according to what i've read on the internet (again) bout american's "kasabihan", how true that telling people about your pregnancy inside the first trimester is bad luck?

4th and last question (for now lol)...magsi-6 weeks pa lang ang tiyan ko pero medyo halata na siya and i can feel that my jeans/bottom pajamas are getting tight...ganun din ba kayo nung 6 weeks niyo? minsan tuloy naiisip namin ng asawa ko na baka kambal ang pinagbubuntis ko.

thanks in advance mommies!

It would be good if you breastfeed your baby

then every 2-3 hrs ko sya pa dede..

minsan parang kulang pa sa kanya ang 3 oz.. pero matakot na ako dagdagan kasi nga baka ma overfeed ko.

Check this webpage for your reference about vaccinations for the infants.

You may discuss it to your doctor regarding the proper breastfeeding, use of the pacifier and breast pump so she can guide you.

Here are websites and resources I can recommend for more information on breastfeeding and breast pumps

Hi Sheila!

These are the signs of breastfeeding that it is going well and you don't need to worry:

- Breastfeed at least 8 times in 24 hrs

- begins to gain weight after day 5 and back to birthweight by 2 weeks

- baby gains 4- 8 oz each week after the first week

- 3 - 4 yellow stools every day by day 5 and for the first month

- 6 or more wet diapers per day after day 5

- hear or see your baby swallow

- content after feeds

Your baby will probably want to nurse 8 to 12 times a day at first. For the first few weeks it's best to feed on "cue", when baby shows signs of hunger, such as licking the lips, sucking on a fist or crying. Use the pacifier only when the baby is 1 month or older during nap or bedtime but not as a replacement for brestfeeding.

It can be difficult to be certain that baby is getting enough milk. Bowel movements and the number of wet diapers per day can reassure you that baby's nutritional needs are being met.

If possible just give your baby breastmilk and don't mix it with formula specially if your baby is less than 1 month old. The more you nurse your baby, the more your breasts will produce more milk for your baby. Breastmilk is still the best. Good luck!

thanks in advance mommies!

Hello happy..Dito sa mga questions mo:

1. Yep! ganun din ako when I was pregnant. As in dilat ang mata hanggang madaling araw lalo pa't grabe yung naexperience ko with morning sickness.

2. Oo utot ka talaga ng utot :rofl:

3. Ala naman akong narinig about sa kasabihan nato. As soon as nalaman namin na buntis ako eh sinabihan na namin yung mga kamag-anak at mga kaibigan agad tsaka di talaga ako naniniwala sa mga pamahiin..hehehehe

4. Eh dito sa tanung mong ito eh hindi ako medyo makarelate. Kasi nung buntis ako eh halos hindi mahalata na buntis ako..lol..Medyo nahalata nalang yung tyan ko around 7 months pero hindi talaga as in..Hehehehe..

Good luck sa pagbubuntis mo..

[frostysoftyeaton 6]

Had my baby's first doctors appointment this morning. Yipey!!!She gained weight in weeks time. Nag-alala talaga ako nung nasa ospital pa kami kasi bumaba timbang niya pero sabi nila eh normal lang daw yun sa mga new born baby's. Hay halos maiyak ako nung malaman kung bumaba timbang ng baby ko..Hay ang pagiging ina talaga..Pero kanina, ayun naggain na siya ng weight. Naimpress nga doctor niya kasi very unusual daw sa baby na maggain agad ng weight. Hay we are happy kasi our baby is very healthy and very active. Natanggal na din yung umbilical cord niya..Her next appointment will be 2 months from now..Hay..

Ganito pala ang pagiging ina. Halos hindi ka mapakali lalo na sa gabi, I'm so worried na baka mabulunan or kung anu ano pa yung mga iniisip ko..Lagi ding puyat pero inienjoy ko naman. Ala sa akin yung maya't maya eh babangon ka para magpadede or magpalit ng diaper..Hay kahit anung pagod eh sulit agad kapag nginitian ka ng anak mo.

Kamustas mga mommies? Anu ng update sa mga baby niyo. Sana everything is okay.

1. Well I didnt had any trouble sleeping on my first trimester, it just started on my 2nd and last trimester. Kahit na uminom ako ng warm milk at kumain ng saging bago matulog wa effect. Minsan mahihiga ako ng late to make sure na makakatulog kagad ako pero 3am gising pa ko pero ngayon in fairness di na ganun ka late ako makatulog. Avoid drinks with caffeine, ako never talaga akong uminom ng me caffeine pero di parin ako makatulog.

2. Siguro normal lang yan, pero ako kasi minsan ko na eexperience yan ngayong last trimester ko na.

3. Meron din palang pamahiin ang mga americans? hehe. Ngayon ko lang narinig yan pero ako kasi di ko muna pinagsabi until after 2 weeks cguro after kong mag home pregnancy test. Gusto nga ng asawa ko sabihin ko nalang daw sa nanay ko after ng doctors appointment pero di na ko nakapag hintay. Its better to tell your immediate family first before anybody else.

4. Malalaman mo yan kung twin on your first doctor's visit thru transvaginal ultrasound. Ako 14 weeks na tyan ko nun pero kasya parin mga jeans ko.

Goodluck....you have a long way to go, more experience and later pains hehe.

thank u so much,. by the way d talaga ako breastfeeding kasi nga wala syado naga labas na milk sa aking suso

ang nakukuha ko lang 1 oz and sometimes 1/2 oz..

kaya gumagamit ako formula kasi kulang talaga sa kanya.. tapos every 2hrs pump ako.. minsan wala talaga lumalabas..

cguro ma bigyan ko lang nga talaga sya ng breastmilk 2 times a day.. the rest is formunla.

nag increase ako ng formula now 2oz -3 oz.. feed ko sya after 2-3 hrs.

napansin ko kung kulang pa sakanya kasi nga lakas nya mag pacifier. tapos

kung busog na talaga sya. d sya nag hahanap ng pacifier.. 2log na sya diretso

try ko nga iwansan mag pacifier sya.. minsan kasi sa 3oz na give ko sa kanya daw kulang pa

takot naman ako bigyan sya ulit baka ma overfeed ko kaya give ko ang pacifier.

naga popo sya once a day.. color yellow pero sobrang dami naman..

worried nga ako..kung tama ba ang ginagawa ko..

normal ba ito??

[ryandgracey 2]

ok...

Maizy turned a month old today (oh where has the time gone???). She is now 9.11 lbs (8 lbs 6 oz at birth, 7.49 lbs on discharge) and 22 inches tall (21 inches at birth) She is definitely not as "good" a baby as her Ate was...I swear, she is developing her personality (and an attitude to boot!)

This was taken during one of her "quiet", "good li'l girl" times. Sorry for the dim lighting...she is much fairer than she appears

you may want to speak to a lactation consultant. again...the more you breastfeed (or pump), the more milk you'll produce. also, drink plenty of fluids daily. At first konti lang talaga ma-pump mo.

Doc Gracey, ang cute naman ni Maizy at ang laki na nya

Shiela, if you are really willing to breastfeed eh i-try mo yung herbal tea na Organic Mother's Milk. Nakakapagpagatas daw yang tea na yan. I didn't try it kasi hindi ako mahilig sa hot tea. Binigyan ako ng sample ng tea na yan na galing sa hospital. According sa WIC meron din daw pills that will help you produce milk pero you need prescription sa doc.

[Rose&Corey 0]
