Hi mga sis! Ano [textspeak!] tmc plus card? Parang I'm interested Kung nagbibigay sya ng discounts? Pano  avail  yun?

[mocha_bun]

Hi! Meron po ba dito who gave birth at tmc recently who didn't avail their package? I'm almost 37 weeks and yet my ob avoids discussing her rate. Medjo nakaka-frustrate na nga eh. Buti na lang i found a fellow sis here na sya din ob nya 2 yrs ago kya nagka general idea kami. I want to have an idea Lang sana how much standard rate pag normal o cs? Thank you!

there will be a free breastfeeding talk at tmc tom... 9-12 nn... just ask the guard for directions... free for all preggos even if you're not giving birth there

Hi sis, i gave birth Nov 2010 medyo tagal na, pero total bill ko 150k plus CS yan..

[izabelle]

anyone here who used TMC's Lamaze room?

kindly post naman po the rates thank you.

hi mga sis, any idea how what is the most comfortable and practical room to get in TMC after delivery? How much kaya ang aabutin ng total bill if i am not to avail their package?

[HeartHeart]

^ practical room after delivery, yung ward room (don't know lang if comfortable).  yung total bill na binayaran namin P120k pero private room, wala na daw kasi vacant sa ward.  and wala silang bcg vaccine for baby kaya mas maganda if you gave birth sa hospital na meron na nito.

Eto rin bill ko when I gave birth August 2006 CS din.

[violinist]

sis what do you think? practical kaya to get a lamaze room so husband can be there during the delivery? kasi diba pag naCS ka ililipat ka din sa OR and di mo rin daw makakasama si husband dun.. may mga cases kasi na kahit normal delivery bigla biglang nasi-CS diba?

sa mga nakagamit ng lamaze room ng TMC share naman how much inabot ng bill nyo and sulit ba? TIA

[HeartHeart]

@violinist
inabot ng P120k bill namin, nsd.  sulit para sa akin kasi andyan si hubby katabi ko.   

[violinist]

@heartheart

wow buti inallow kayo sis na andun si hubby mo during delivery kahit private room lang.. kasi sabi ng OB ko sa lamaze lang daw pwede na andun si hubby eh.. discretion ba ito ng OB or ng hospital?

[HeartHeart]

@violinist
nag-lamaze room kami (dun ako nanganak).  after ng lamaze room na yung private room.  sulit para sa akin yung lamaze room kasi andun si hubby.   

[violinist]

Wow really sis!! di rin pala ganun kamahal kung 120k ang inabot nyo.. dun nadin si baby nilinis sa lamaze diba? mga ilang hours kayo nagstay sa lamaze room sis? dapat ba magpareserve kami prior to giving birth? thanks sis

[HeartHeart]

@violinist
yes, dun na nilinis si baby sa lamaze.  skin-to-skin contact kami ni baby tapos pina-latch na din sa akin.

2 hours lang kami sa lamaze room, ang bilis ko lang nanganak.

kapag andun ka na sa pre-labor room, pwede mo na pa-reserve lamaze room.   

[HeartHeart]

@violinist
ang alam ko, pipili ka lang ng isang tao (hubby or mom or doula) to be there with you inside sa lamaze room.

naku, expose na expose talaga yan kasi ang daming mga nurse and residents ng tmc na andun kahit na magrequest ka pa na limit lang.  hindi talaga pwede.  more or less 10 ata sila.  ang oa di ba!  pero mas okay naman kasi di mo sila kilala and lagi na nila yun nae-experience so hindi ka masyado mahihiya.   

[violinist]

@HeartHeart

I see, that's good kung ganun.. ok lang yung exposure sa mga nurses at residents ng tmc kasi di talaga maiiwasan yun, plus di mo rin naman sila kakilala at sanay na sila kaya oks lang.. ang mahirap eh kung may ibang relatives (other than hubby) ang iallow na andun..baka tuwing makikita nila ako iba yung magrerecall sa mind nila LOL! 

galing naman ng labor mo sis, may mga preparations ka bang ginawa kaya mabilis ka lang naglabor? baka you have your labor story in a blog or something.. really appreciate it if you can share  thanks sis!!

[HeartHeart]

@violinist
wala akong blog.  may pinainom lang ob ko sa akin nung 39 weeks ako, eveprim.  after 2 days, lumabas na si baby.   

[violinist]

@HeartHeart

I see, i'll mention nga din yan kay OB on my 37th week onwards.. thanks for the help sis

[violinist]

@HeartHeart,

sis pwede malaman how much dun sa 120k na ginastos nyo ang napunta kay OB? or better yet if you can give the breakdown nung 120k.. kasi nung tinanong ko si OB regarding sa PF nya sa Lamaze iba daw kesa kung di ako magla Lamaze, mas mataas daw ng konti.. di pa naman siya nagbigay ng figure, pero at least may point of comparison ako kung malaman ko how much yung sa PF ng OB mo..

Thanks sis..
