[heaven_scent102]

^wow sis, i think pareho tayo kasi my 3rd one looks like a girl too! im 5 months pregnant, my eldest is 3 y.o and 1 month my 2nd just turned 1 last week

[maeka]

bonding time kami nung walang yaya tapos holiday season pa...super hirap kapag walang yaya...pero enjoy din naman and the best thing is natutununan namin magasawa maging systematic sa gawain...

we have a 3 and 2 yr old toddler plus my 3months old baby...

[kneekee]

agree with that sis. Minsan nga parang ayaw ko na kumuha ng Yaya eh. pero kailangan talaga eh lalo na I'm out of the house the whole day. wawa naman kids if wala magaalaga. But when I'm home I make most out of it with my kids.

[mommy libay]

i'm turning 37 and i have 3 children - my eldest son is turning 15 in the next two weeks, then my daughter, now 12 and my youngest son just turned 10 last feb.  i can say that hubby and i are both contented with them na. we enjoy the fact na they're grown ups and we can go out na kami lang when we want to without guilt feeling na baka di okay ang kids. also, we can travel with the kids na hindi sobrang major production kasi nga grown up na sila.

few days ago i noticed na my period was delayed. i patiently waited but to no avail so i considered having tested... to my surprise (and disappointment  ) i am pregnant daw!

mga sis i know i am being unfair but i want to cry sobra.. actually i already did.. when i told my sisters yesterday.  hindi pa alam ni hubby or kahit na sino.. yung 2 ate ko pa lang.

i felt i'm too old to get pregnant again ang dami ko'ng fears.. baka di ko na kaya yung pain.. baka di ko na alam mag alaga ng baby.. baka di ko na kaya i-support financially since nag aaral na yung 3 kids ko (2 in HS) and i am the only one working in the family

sobrang depressed ako mga sis! how i wish na mali ang lab result i was about to surprise my hubby and kids this october with a HK trip.. i already paid the ticket (nag sale kasi recently ang Cebu Pac - i grabbed the opportunity). but with my condition now and the possiblity of sobrang madaming gastos in the near future.. sobra ako'ng nalulungkot! and also, if i am really pregnant, due na ako ng nov this year.. late october ang byahe dapat namin i can't make it earlier naman kasi kailangan ko pa mag ipon.. also, excited din ako na my kids will get to see disneyland kahit HKG lang..how i love to bring my kids travelling to different places.. especially now kasi first time nila mag a-out of the country if ever.

i hate this feeling!!! i don't want to be unfair with the baby inside me but i can't help it. sometimes naiisip ko ang dami'ng activities na di na namin ulit pwede'ng gawin kasi may baby... ang daming gastos na dadating kasi may baby.. ang daming dapat i-consider kasi may baby.. kailangan ko na naman mag ipon ng nga bagong gamit ng baby...tapos never ending diapers and milk na naman...

God forgive me but there was an instance that i felt, sana mawala na lang ang baby  inside me

parang gusto ko'ng awayin ang hubby ko for getting me into this situation  palibhasa hindi sya ang mahihirapan... but of course i can't blame him naman kasi i'm sure he didn't expected this to happen naman.. pero i 'm really upset with him 

sorry mga sis.. i just really have to vent this out. i don't like to feel this way.. i want to be happy knowing that i have another blessing coming.. pero i don't know bakit ganito ang feeling ko

[YaZiLove]

honestly, dont know how to react... i just sincerely wish that you are ok as well as the baby... is it confirmed na?
how are you now?

[kimebies]

I came from a small BUT happy and full of love na family. I'm an only kid and I have a 2-year and 1-month old baby boy now and I'm 7 weeks pregnant. I want to have another 2 kids after this pero in around 5-7 years' time naman.

[fegloria1954]

neyvillones,

Ang suerte mo, tiwala ang Lord sa iyo - kasi ang dami niyang chikiting na ipapagkatiwala sa iyo and your husband to bring up and care for.  Your new one is another gift from God.

Isipin mo iyong iba, panay hinagpis kasi hindi nagkakaroon ng anak, samantalang ikaw, binigyan pa rin.

Pray mo lang na you and your baby remain healthy and take care of yourself.

[neyvillones]

sis YaZiLove and sis fegloria1954. thanks! i'm a lot better now.. and we are all excited about the new addition to our family especially my daughter.. everybody wishes na sana babae this group really helped me out! salamat sa inyo.

Got 3 girls.

Martine who's turning 14 this May
Alex who is 7
Noelle she's turning 4 this June

  No plans na to add. Okay lang kahit all girls.

[janjohann]

We have 2 boys na. and we plan to have another baby this year or next year. Sana girl na, pero kung another boy, okay lang basta healthy ! 

I'm happy for you neyvillones! I'm sure mas magiging masaya sa house nyo because marami ang magkakagulo at magpapalitan sa pagbabantay sa baby while you're doing something. Sana nga girl kasi may 2 boys ka na rin and ang cute ng mga clothes ngayon na  pang baby girl.  Have a safe pregnancy, and goodluck sis 

[Kady_14]

  sis neyvillones blessing pa din yan. Just take precautionary measures after this para wala na kasunod.

Ako mg-28 na ako. I have 2 kids. Daughter - 7 years and a Son - Turning 6 soon. Husband and I are both working. Kids are also both in school na din - so me dagdag na mga gastos na like tuition, school needs etc.

Wish ko sana mas madami. Pero times are difficult lately. Siguro pag mas lumaki ang funds namin. We'll have a 2nd batch (Sana) Sa ngayon Pangarap pa lang yung big family in the future. sa ngayon ineenjoy pa namin yung 2. pa labas labas and pagpasyal pasyal sa kung saan saan. Panunuod ng sine or mglamyerda sa mall. I don't think all those would be possible if mg-dadagdag na kami sa ngayon.

[heaven_scent102]

i'm 24 turning 25 this year and im due to have my 3rd baby girl this june
im excited and quite kinakabahan how to have 3 kids..

[delisyus]

neyvillones

alam mo, you were entitled to your initial reaction of upset... after all, this 4th baby is unplanned... ako din, I want all kids (minimum of 2, maximum of 3) to be delivered before am 36 para around 37-38 eh tapos nako mag-breastfeed... kasi nga i wanna go travelling din and don't want the burden of having to worry about an infant... gusto ko super camping, super koboy, super i need not worry where the closest hospital is... tipong ganun

BUT... lahat naman nga may upside at downside

your 3 older kids won't be really selos and competitive na with this new baby... kasi they're all grown up na with their own activities and set of friends

and yet, they can all pitch in na! teach both sons and daughter to change diapers! you have instant babysitter na din if you need to catch a few extra winks

and though magastos sa diaper ang baby... if you breastfeed, babies will only really require vaccine expenses... mga around 4 years old pa sya mag-i-incur ng tuition fee expense... around that time, patapos na sa college ang panganay mo   depending on how you raised them, they can maybe also help with your youngest's schooling naman...

and i think it will help all of them become responsible parents someday... kasi makikita nila how hard it is, so baka mas maging maingat sila sa premarital sex and unwanted pregnancies, and for sure they would be more loving and attentive people...

good luck....

I have 2 girls now, 3 yr old and 7 mths old. Before we wanted to have
3 to 4 kids. Now we want at least 2, and max 3 kids. We haven't
decided yet kung magti-3 babies pa kami. Wait munang mag 2 yrs muna
si bunso bago kami mag-decide. I'm 32 already so I know na we must
decide rin soon kasi ayoko namang masyadong late na
para mag 3rd baby. We're both working, so we're lucky to have my mom
to help take care of the kids while we're away plus an all-around helper.
Definitely malaking factor ang financial at tsaka kung sino mag-aalaga pag nag baby pa ulit kmi. Ang mahal kasi kumuha ng maid dito sa Sg,
meron kasing government levy. 

[cheskacruz]

I am on my way to having 3 kids. I am 5 months pregnant and also working.

My eldest is turning 6
while my second is turning 2.
All are boys.

I do hope it's a girl this time. 

[maeka]

sis ney, grownups naman na kids mo so dont worry...let them help you with everything regarding the new member of the family, para matuto na din sila maging responsible diba...kaya mo yan sis!!

[neyvillones]

^ thanks sis maeka  my kids are now all excited about the new baby. actually lahat sa bahay and office, pati friends ko excited na.. hahaha! siguro kasi oldies na ko .. hahaha
i'm also excited about the baby.. naka pamili na nga ako ng ibang gamit eh... hehe but then i can't deny the fact na medyo scary kasi its been 10 years since I gave birth.. takot pa naman ako sa mga injections... at CS ako  however, i do believe that God will not take me to where His grace cannot protect me

[domestic diva]

^ sis ney, we're in the same boat... i can relate. my kids are in high school and grade school and in 2 weeks, we're having our new addition to our family... mixed feelings talaga... especially when you think you can travel na with the kids (no yayas!!!)... but every time i think about the "ughs"... God throws me a sign that this baby is meant to be... i run into childless couples or i get a surprise of tons of hand me down clothes and baby accessories!  God is truly good!

ako rin, naku, takot sa injections kaya may EMLA ako when i enter the hospital para i don't feel the skin tests and IV.  C/S din ako.  Keep praying, sis... enjoy the pregnancy bec. baby can feel your emotions too... think of the good stuff
