34 weeks now... She will be having a C-section probably near week 39... somewhere around the 18th - 20th of July.

Brian in Tennessee

Hang in there! :) Still, even with a scheduled C-sec, you'll never know. I went into labor a few days before the scheduled CS. So, hopefully, you've prepared both Mommy's and Baby's things :) Be sure to have a carseat for the baby as they will not release the child unless there is one available...or they may lend you one :unsure:

We have a new carseat that we got through WIC at the Health Department. It is bright and cheerful looking colors. I have had a large bag packed since April I guess, when she was having bleeding (which is since resolved). I realized then how confused I was of what to do when trying to figure out about getting her to a hospital, getting her dressed, and all that. I was going around in circles. So I prepared right away for emergencies in the future. I have had that bag packed for 2 months now with her clothes, bathroom needs, a camera, baby clothes, diapers, papers, insurance info... everything we need. Gas in the car always, and keys standing by on a hook by the door.... Now i wont have to think even. Thank goodness the hospital is only 4-5 minutes away.

Zac just just turned 6 months old last 17th and he had his Renal Ultrasound too on that day. Maybe sa Monday or Tuesday pa namin malalaman ang result. Nakakatuwa kasi ang bilis na ni Zac sa walker nya tas marunong na cyang magback-off kapag na stuck yung walker nya sa corner. Nagbaback-off cya pra makaliko actually nung ika 3rd day nya in his walker na laman yun pero now eh ang bilis na nya :dance:

@Brettane, wala nmn kakaiba kay Zac in regards sa condition nya specially sa pagweewee. Parang nirmal lang na bata na walang problema hehe. I got that Father's day shirt idea on TV kasi lagina lang t-shirt, pants, watch and regalo ko sa kanya every occasion kaya gusto ko this time eh mafeel nya na Father's Day talaga hehe. Alam ko kasi kasabihan sa atin na huwag gupitan ang hair ng baby til they get 1 yr old kasi magiging sakitin daw ang baby. Yun ang sabi nila pero hindi nmn kasi ako mahilig maniwala sa kasabihan, konti lang yung pinaniniwalaan ko. Cute yung website na nishare mo, pwede ka ring mamili ng pangregalo dun. Sayang ayaw kasi ni Zac ng pacifier.

@Someday, ppalapit ka na ng papalapit sa finish line :dance: Ikain mo na lang ako sa handa bukas hehe.

@Sweetpink, hooray! Nakapagpagupit na si Ethan. Buti pa sa kanya ay may gugupitin, si Zac 6 months na kalbo pa rin :lol: Sooner or later makikipagkarerahan ka na kay EThan sa pagtakbo :D

@rose19, oo maganda talaga baby shower kasi daming gifts LOL! konti na lang bibilhin natin :D

@Sweetdove, sana na nga mareceive nyo na NOA2 nyo soon! :star:

@Marybeth, inorder ko nung Friday tas dumating ng Tuesday via UPS. Pinaexpediate ko kahit may additional payment ok lang pra lang umabot sa Father's Day. For sure matutuwa hubby mo nyan sa gift mo :star: Galing ni baby mo ha at nagcracrawl na :D

@Doc Gracey, nakakaiyakng yang mahiwalay sa baby sa pagtulog lalo na't nasanay tayo. Ako ngayon pa lang iniisip ko na ganun eh naiiyak na ako. Kasi feeling ko hahanap hanapin ko si Zac sa kama namin paggising ko :( pero buti naman at ok ka na hehe

@Rose&Corey, ang cute ng baby nyo at type ko pa yung "peace shirt" nya :D

@Davaj, nanganak ka na ba? don't forget to post pic kapag may time ka na ha :D

May "mabahong mga tanong" po ako kina doc gracey at RR:

1. Ilang beses magpoop baby nyo?

2. Ano kulay ng poop ng baby nyo?

Kasi si Zac eh nagpoopoop twice a day na since last week. Pero hindi nmn diarrhea saka napansin ko na greenish na yung poop nya. Hindi nya ba nilalabas yung iron nun? Natatakot kasi na baka makulangan sa iron si Zac.

Buti naman kung ganon, sana negative ang result. I had a kidney trouble when i was a kid, pag umuhi ako non kulay coke. Pabalik balik ako sa hospital noon. Pero buti ngayon di na ko sinusumpong. Nakapili na ko ng shirt pero di ko pa chini check out, nasa cart ko na. Ang dami kasing pagpipiliian, kainis yung mga baby bodysuit doon 6 mos. ang pinakamaliit pero umorder narin ako para kay Letcher yung "50% Filipino" print at umorder din ako ng para sa akin hehehe. Hubby ko naman di mahilig sa watch, nabibigatan daw sya sa kamay at di daw sya maingat ayaw nya ng naga gasgas. Yung christmas gift ko sa kanyang watch 2 years ago eh nasa drawer lang, ilang beses lang nya sinuot hhhmmpp. Di na daw kasi uso ang watch ngayon kasi karamihan daw eh sa cellphone na tumitingin ng oras. Eh ako naman collector ng wrist watch. Yun pala ang kasabihan sa haircut sa mga bata. Ang alam ko lang when they turn 1 year old pero di ko alam ang reason hehe. Si Letcher pacifier nya o yung fist nya ang pampatulog kaya nasanay narin.

@brettane, hala! ba't ano prob mo sa kidney dati? Si Zac kasi parang normal lang naman as in wala kang mapapansin na kakaiba sa kanya. Yung ihi nya is normal lang at hindi rin cya nahihirapan umihi. Ba't daw ganun color ng wee wee mo? Saka ano tawag dun sa sakit na ganun? When naging ok yung kidney mo? Dami ko tanong eh noh? sencay na hehe.

Oo, type ko nga din yung mga Filipino shirts dun at balak ko din bumili. I am not sure kung when pero balak ko talaga yan kahit noon pa. Ewan ko ba ba't di matuloytuloy hehe.

It was more than a kidney infection kaya naging ganun n kulay ng ihi ko. Sa arinola n nga ako nag wiwiwi nun para ma obserbahan ako. Nawala din yun thru medication.

hi dear, pacenxa na now lang ulit ako nakabalik, medyo busy kami the last few days kc work hubby ko sinasama na nia ako eh takot na ako iwan..hehe, anyway update ko lang 2cm dilated pa lang ako as of tuesday. dont know now i think may progress na naman kc sumasakit na tiyan ko tapus may discharge na ako if im not mistaken mucus plague ata tawag dito. Sana lalabas na c baby today. Ikaw kumusta na pakiramdam mo? di pa ba sumasakit tiyan mo? update ka din ha...

To all mommies, may tanong lang ako about sa discharges ko kulay pink po xa tapus medyo naging brown din yung iba..sign na ba yan na malapit na ako manganak? tapus sumasakit na yung tiyan ko na parang menstrual cramps, sabi nga ni doc kapag ka about 5 mins interval na yung gap sa contraction ko tapus masakit na maxado pupunta na daw ako sa hospital, ang problema eh maxado high yung pain tolerance ko pano kung para sa akin di pa maxado masakit..hehe, sana nga magbreak nalng ang water bag ko para go na kaagad kami. Takot hubby ko na magwait pa kami magbreak ang water kc lahi namin ang easy labor, mama ko para lng nia ipopo ang baby..lol..sana matulad ako sa kanya para makalabas agad kami sa hospital. Anyway, iupdate ko lng po kayo kung sakali lalabas na c baby Jasmine ko today...God Bless!!

Uy exciting na yan, pero wag masyado excited kasi basi ayaw lumabas ni baby nasa early labor ka na kaya dapat reserve mo ang energy mo para sa active labor and delivery mo, natatawa nga ako last night sa birth class namin kasi sabi daw sa early labor pwedi ka uminom ng glass of wine para maka relax at makatulog wag masyado excited daw, LOL pero alam mo na tayo pag mga ganayan di na maiwasan ang subrang excitement...good luck sayo sana maging smooth and safe ang delivery mo....

post picture pag may time ka ha...

Good luck to both of you hopefully you have a smooth and safe delivery, that's what I'm always praying for, I'm not prepare with my bag yet but I already had list of everything that I need and the birth center gave us a list and we can just add what we want to bring...
