hi mga sis, meron ba ditong pedia si dra ruth alejandro? how is she? am thinking of changing pedia, kasi pedia ko now ayaw pakainin si baby ng chicken, egg or any meat, i have to wait till 1 year old na raw si baby. eh 9 months na sya and am kinda worried dahil payat sha and small, altho very healthy naman. tia!

[marose17]

^ Your current pedia is being conservative and prudent.  Egg and chicken are highly allergenic and you really should wait until your baby is at least a year old before introducing those foods.   As for meat, puwede nang pakainin ng beef or pork ang baby basta ground or finely chopped lang.

Hindi namin pedia si Ruth but I knew her from university days.

If your baby is on the lean side, no need to worry as long as she is thriving, healthy (not sakitin) and happy.  Kung payat ka or ang husband mo, most likely your baby takes after you.

[iristacey]

^sis marose, OT lang. reminds me not to worry. saan pa nga magmamana ang baby namin eh pareho kaming payat ni hubby.

Hi mga sis! Any recommendations in Paranaque Doctors in better living? First time mom here! Ill be giving birth by September so im scouting already na

if you intend to breastfeed, i suggest dra. ellyn go. she holds clinic at PDH.

[iyaluna]

thanks for the replies sis. payat nga kami ni hubby, tho hubby is tall. saang school kayo ni dra ruth sis marose?

[marose17]

^ UP Diliman for undergrad.  As I recall, she took either BS Bio or BS Psych. We are acquaintances because I have friends who were her blockmates.  I think she went to UERM for med school.

Ruth is married to a guy who was a batch ahead of me in law school (UP din).  Small world right?  

[iyaluna]

yeah small world,. thanks for the reply Sis. is she your pedia also?

[marose17]

^ No, sis.  Our current pedia is Dr. Resti Bautista from UP-PGH.

[hunny_ally]

Iyaluna, a bit OT but I agree with marose. Lalo na if you have a strong history of allergy and asthma. My daughter had her first taste of egg at age 2. Citrus fruits din are a no-no.

[prettygurl00001]

Sisses ok ba si Dra. Catherine Young from Makati Med ?

[SexyCat]

Recommend ko lang super nice na pedia in Bacoor Cavite: Dr. Joel San Jose Celestino. Napakalambing at napakabait. Meron din siyang clinics in MCI in imus and Las Pinas near southmall. Highly recommended! For me he's the best. Super maalaga

[lanee_beu]

hi sis prettygurl0001, i asked a nurse friend working at makati med, she recommended dr. catherine young highly recommended daw pero d ko pa na try next month pa kasi balik ko sa pedia, itatry mo ba sya? balitaan mo naman ako ha..TIA

[iyaluna]

thanks sis hunny, i'll keep that in mind. kasi naman family ko is telling me to feed him na raw everything. masyado raw akong maingat. pati citrus, naku pinapakagat sha ng orange. at least now i know of other moms na maingat din when it comes to food.

[prettygurl00001]

^^ [textspeak!] sis post ko dito sa thread pag na-meet ko na si dra. catherine young. Kaso lang advise ng OB ko usually daw hindi pa agad mami-meet ang pedia until during delivery. Eh sa December pa due date ko.

[lanee_beu]

hello mga sis, any recommended pediatrician-pulmonologist sa manila adventist? TIA

[amanemisa16]

hi mga sis, please help. We transferred near sm molino and need ko po ng pedia for my baby. Saan po ba ok? last month pa dapat vaccine nya pero till now di ko pa napabakunahan. her pedia before was in CGH, since lumipat na kami hassle naman na ibalik ko pa dun.

Lapit lang po kami ng sm molino. thanks

[iristacey]

^nearest hospitals are as follows: medical center imus, our lady of pillar, asian hospital and DLSU-UMC.

our pedia is rochelle pacifico, dev ped siya but holds regular pediatric clinic. you might want to check her out. may clinic siya sa our lady of pillar every saturday, 12nn-3pm. medyo old school yung dating niya sa akin but the advantage since dev ped siya, mas madali niya mabigyan ng pansin yung milestones ni baby. you may also want to check asian hospital. dra. abigail suntay is my ob's pedia partner. okay din siya.

[MommyKuks]

I'm giving birth by late October to early November. We're considering Dra. Catherine S. Young. Good thing na pwede siya mag-attend to in-patient at CGH, so pag nanganak ako sa CGH, sya ang mag-attend ke baby Migo. And then when we move back in Taguig after delivery, sa MMC na ako makakapagpa-clinic sa kanya. Buti na din at meron siya clinic sa MCU. near sa place ng parents namin ni hubby, so kung halimbawa na nandun kami at bumibisita, pwede din.

Any one here na si Dra. Cath Young ang pedia? Feedback please. Although in terms sa nakasagot sa akin sa phone sa clinic nya at MMC, in fairness, courteous and helpful sumagot ang secretary nya. 

[erl]

mga sis sino natry kay dra.ellen chua sa CGH pedia sya. ok ba sya?

[puglover]

If my baby has suspected asthma. Where should i bring him? Allergologist or puo? Quite confused sa mga nababasa ko

[chofontanilla]

Mga mommies na nakapagpacircumcise na ng baby nila, any recommendation ng pedia-surgeon? Yung malapit lang sana sa bulacan. TIA! Need it badly.
