All pregnant Mommies

[ryandgracey 2]

Oh I really hope so. All I want is to pass this stage and have a healthy and normal pregnancy. My husband is very supportive and very caring. Hands down for his love, support, care, patience, sacrifices and just everything. He will do everything for me, unlike my MIL, she really s***s.

monster-in-law ba ate ady? lol!

Gusto ko yan..lol

Lol...baka matanda na kasi. my MIL is just 60 and watched the Transformers movie. Very sympathetic. She lives about 20 hours away in Missississippi and calls at least twice a week just to know how I am doing.

Hello mga mommies... been awhile since i last visited vj...

pano naman kasi... i hatched na... hehehehe... it was early and it ended up CS... last Monday July 6, though we had a hard time picking out a name... finally PRESTON JAMES is here!

I would just like to share my experience... hay naku... July 4th pa lang i was already non stop contracting. Hay talaga, nafeel ko yung uncomfy feeling na parang manganganak na ako anytime but then again i was thinking baka false labor na naman... my contractions never stopped until finally July 6, we decided to go to the hospital... so yun nga we arrived there around 7 am. i was contracting continuously within 5 mins interval since the 4th... i was only 2.5 cm dilated... i was put on IV baka raw dehydrated lang ako... still not stopping contractions, and then they gave me my third pack of IV, still my contractions never stopped, but my dilation, never improved. Then finally they gave me options to either come back at a later time and have a natural labor or stay and they will intervene, meaning they will break my water to make the contractions strong enough and baby's head would come down further and make me dilate... but the last option, no turning back na... I asked my aunt nurse, and she said go for the latter one, anyway, baby will be safe. I was scared kasi i didn't want to have CS and that's another caution the doctor gave us if i choose the last one. I finally decided to do the latter, since anyway, my contractions are not stopping and soon i would have to go through the labor process anyway, why would i have to prolong it. My case was just a matter of not improving my dilation, ayaw lang talaga bumukas ng cervix ko, so the case is di makakalabas si baby naturally. anyway, noon time dr came and broke my water... after 2 hours, i dilated only to 4 cm... they tried increasing the medication for making the contractions stronger, by that time it was so painful, yun na yung part na you will cuss your husbands (but i never did, actually happy ako kasi my husband was there all the time and helping me breathe while on labor), i opted for epidural and ohhhh... it was heaven to me... i was sleeping thru my labor prolly from exhaustion. Some blooper though, after the dr broke my water, and they put pads on my bed, i thought i was peeing that i couldn't control... told my husband OMG, call the nurse, coz im gonna pee, and i couldn't control it and i felt that it just trickled... ok, never mind i peed already. I was so embarassed that i thought i peed my bed. When the nurse came in, she said that it was still part of my water. So mga mommies, wag magtaka if after your water broke, there's still more to come when you're in labor. By 5 pm, still my dilation never improved, stuck on 4 cm. My contractions are really strong by then, i couldn't feel it much becoz of the epidural but baby is getting stressed out already, so the dr finally decided to have a cs, for baby's safety. So at 6:30, he was born. Sa loob pa lang ng tummy, only head pa lang nakalabas, baby is already crying.. he's a healthy baby boy. Thank God.

Now, i'm still recovering from the surgery. Mejo masakit pa yung incision ko but it will get better. I got discharged last Th and baby had first dr's visit yesterday, Saturday. In the afternoon, we had baby shower. It was alot to take in but everything is doing ok. My husband is really there for me.

Congratulations! CS ain't so bad. Did the baby's head ever descend at all? My guess is baka di sya kasya kaya ka na-CS. Anyway, how are you enjoying feeding every hour? Don't worry, around 3 months of age, you'll probably be able to get abour 3-4 hours of sleep in between feedings. At least your hubby is there to help you get up to feed. Enjoy motherhood!

Ngayon lang uli ako nakapagcheck. Ang WIC, hindi ka ma deny kung mag apply ka na greencard. Hindi cya considered na public charge ka sa gobyerno. Meron akong kakilala na may WIC at nakakuha pa rin ng greencard. Walang problema. Supplement lang naman ang ibibigay nila sayo, hindi cash. Makakareceive ka ng check at nakasaad dun kung anu ano ang pwede mo i purchase sa grocery store para sa health ng pregnant mother at ng baby. :-)

Ma try nga ito. Pero curious lang ako, kasi sabi meron lang daw qualified income totoo ba ito?

Yung Husband ko more than 33k a year ang income pero we qualified sa WIC, nakakatawa nga eh kasi di namin inexpect yun pero okay na rin kasi may monthly supply ako na pagkain pero di ko naman kinakain..lol..Gatas,cheese,cereals,juice at kung anu ano pa pero hindi nakakagalaw kasi hindi ako palainom ng gatas lalo ng hindi pala kain ng cereals..lol kaya nakastock sa pantry. Pero try niyo, sayang din,laking tipid sa grocery list niyo lalo na ang gatas kaso mas madami silang sinusupply na gatas. Tsaka by October magsisimula na silang mamigay ng veggies at fruits.

Hi mga mommy,

I got good news! Nakahanap ako ng ibang imaging... we're so excited kahit we have to wait for another two weeks kasi hindi ako naka kuha ng weekday off kasi short handed kami sa work dami kasi nagbakasyon.

Also, mag change ako ng Doctor. Tawagan ng hubby ko yong insurance namin para hindi kami at ang insurance ma double charge ng doctor. I prefer of the doctor in a smaller practice. Kasi yong current doctor ko ay in a very large practice at she's always very busy.

We can't wait to buy the other staff for our baby at to start decorating the nursery room. Habang feeling ko ay hindi pa rin ako buntis. Maliit pa kasi ang tyan ko... he... he... he...

Take care always mga mommies!

about naman sa stretch marks...ay parang kayong lahat nag lalagay nun ah...maglalagay na rin ako...hehehhehe...since ayaw ni hubby na may strecth marks ako...kasi sometimes we go to the pool or beach and i wear bikini so parang akong buteteng nagsusuot ng bikini ay parang malnourish din kasi payat ako then medyo malaki tyan hehehhehe...

about naman sa cs...paano ba maprevent yung cs? may way ba or exercise ba can prevent having cs? ayaw din kasi ni hubby ng cs lalo naman ako...kasi mama ko normal lahat kahit nung sa twin brother ko and she was high blood pa...kaya gusto ko rin normal. and since im small do you think possible ma cs ako? or depende lang talaga yun?

Hehehehe ewan hindi mo maintindihan minsan yung system nila lol,,

[j_e_w_e_l_l_y_n 0]

Yah, wala naman mawawala kung i try nyo mag apply sa WIC. Kelangan nyo lang dalhin ang current paycheck ng asawa nyo saka mga papeles na nagcoconfirm na pregnant kayo. Sandali lang naman ang appointment. Me mga tanong lang ung staff then tingnan na nya ung papers, tapos sabihin sayo kung qualified or not. :-) We had our appointment last week because I had to quit my job kaya medyo maliit ang income namin. Nakapasa kaming 2 ng baby ko pero sinabi ko sa kanila na cancel na ung sakin dahil gusto ko lang ung sa baby dahil mas importante. Ayun, same day, nakakuha kami ng tseke para makakuha ng baby formula. :-) Pero i cancel ko din as soon as possible, basta makabalik ako sa trabaho, kaunting hintay lang.

[frostysoftyeaton 6]

Mga buntis good day! May tanung ako nahihirapan din ba kayong matulog sa gabi? Kasi ako minsan may mga gabi talaga akong hindi makatulog. Katulad kagabi di talaga ako nakatulog. Dahil ba to sa sobrang pag-iisip ko? Di ako makatulog tapos iyak lang ako ng iyak, worried na rin mi sa anak ko pero I can't help it kasi na hindi ilabas lalo na kapag galit ako sa isang tao. Anu ba ang maaaring gawin?

[j_e_w_e_l_l_y_n 0]

Huwag ka masyado mag isip kasi talagang hindi ka makakatulog. Kelangan mo i relax sarili mo. Dapat lagi kang masaya para maganda effect sa baby mo. Kung ano nararamdaman mo, ganun din baby mo, so na stress lang kayo pareho. Ganyan ako dati nung buntis ako, sinabihan ako ng doktor ko na huwag masyado i stress sarili kasi paglabas ng baby dun mo makikita ang epekto ng pagka stress mo (ibig nya sabihin kapag streesed ka sa prengnancy ang baby mo lagi iiyak nang iiyak). Siguro ang gawin mo, libangin mo sarili mo bago ka matulog, tapos pilitin mo na hindi isipin ang sama ng loob o galit sa isang tao para makatulog ka nang maayos. Lagi mo nalang isipin ang baby mo, siguro i imagine mo kung ano itsura nya, ngiti nya, yung mga ganung bagay. :-D Hindi ka nag iisa ganyan ako dati.
