twin pregnancy

[iceebaby]

hi mga mommies... joining...

ako din bilis ng progress ko, dahil siguru wala akong pagsusuka... from 14 lbs. I am now 9wks with my twins and first pregnancy pa.

ayun nga wala ng kasyang damit sa akin....

Sis, at my 32 weeks... ang mga Tshirt ni hubby hindi na kasya saakin. Para akong si WInnie the pooh! haha! Also, pag nakatapis ako after maligo... bitin na! hahaha!

At 36 weeks, sakto na ako sa pinto ng kwarto namin. Yes, ganun tayo mag eenlarge. haha! Sa mall, nag papark na kami sa handicap parking kasi hindi na ako makalakad for more than 5 minutes. For now, rest well and get ready for a huge change! But, all is fun!

[kayin]

^ thanks sis. iceebaby... nakakatuwa naman twin pregnancy experiences mo... sabi ng OB on my last trim need to go on bed rest...

well, sabi mo nga be ready for a huge change which i am very much willing to embrace...

God bless you and your twins... 

[iceebaby]

Hay... nagsawa din ako sa bed rest during my twin preg. Ngayon, dream ko nalang ang bed rest. haha!

Basta when OB says the type of bed rest - follow talaga. You can do it sis! All for the babies!

Lol feeling ko ako din di na kakasya sa pinto pag dating ng 3rd trimester. 10 lbs sa loob ng 1 buwan ang weight gain ko na, grabe!  Feeling ko dapat ako mag cut sa rice. Baka di ako makalakad nito pag lumaki na tyan ko.

I gave birth at Manila Doctors Hospital.  My fees: around Php200,000 (including PF of the OB, anesthesiologist, endo and immunologist). Covered naman ng health card ng hubby ko ang hospital bills. My children's fees are something else - P800,000++.  Kahimatay!

I don't mean to scare you, sis.  Basta, pray ka for a full-term delivery para hindi magastos. 

Anyway, after all the kahirapan and gastos, I can say that having twins (I have fraternal twin boys, by the way) is really fulfilling and fun.     Now that my kids are three years old, sobrang enjoy kami ng husband ko.  Tig-isa kaming bitbit pag lumalabas haha.

sis, may i know kung ano yung healthcard na ginamit mo?

[rons_little_bb]

Ako still worry, 16 weeks na ko pero wala pa din appetite, pinipilit ko nalang minsan kumain. Mapili pa ko ngayon sa food. Pero feel ko ang bigat na ng tyan ko.

[kayin]

^ako sis lagi naman ako tinutukso sa laki ng tinaba ko... hehe...

[jen_d_gr8]

Pa join also.  I'm having twins @ 10 weeks.  IVF pregnancy.  So far I gained more than 15 lbs already.  Been worried about my weight but so glad we're on the same boat. 

[kayin]

^welcome sa thread sis... san ka nagpa IVF? going 10 wks pa lang ako... wala akong vomiting, nausea lang kaya i gained weight so fast... ang laki na rin ng tummy ko...

[dizzylizzie]

Buti na lang may thread tayo. at least nawala pag wo worry ko about my weight gain. 7 weeks 10 lbs na gain ko. pero lately di nako gaano kagutom, di na nga ko nakapag dinner last night.
sis keep posting on your weight gain ha para alam kong i'm not alone and still on the right track hehe. nag walking nga ako kaninang morning , ang sarap magpapawis since nakahiga na lang ako most of the time 

[jen_d_gr8]

Sa Taichung, Taiwan sis last February.  It was my 2nd time and frozen embryo.   

[jen_d_gr8]

Same tayo I don't have any morning sickness.  I'm hungry every hour also.  Sometimes I wake up 2am just to eat.  Kaya I gained so much also.  But I have occasional nausea also.

[iceebaby]

Mga twin sisses, really fine yung weight gain. Basta for me, never talaga ang diet. Eat as many as you can handle.

Sis Ron, I was worried with my weight gain during my 1st trim kasi hindi nagiincrease pero nag lose pa ako. Bawi lang din nung 2nd-3rd.

At 15 weeks, may baby belly na kayo. like a 5 month belly for a singleton. And yes, enjoy if you can walk now... at 32 weeks, gusto mona iluwal sa bigat.

I bought baby clothes around 24 weeks. Kahit mga essentials lang, bec at 28 weeks mahirap na maglakad para mag shop for babies.

^^^sis dizzylizie, oo nga ang gandang venue ng GT sa mga issues natin.

^^sis jen_d_gr8, wow... congrats! fresh and first IVF cycle naman ako sa CARMI... same case halos tayo... fraternal twins ba? are you being handled by OB-perinatologist?

^sis iceebaby, thanks for sharing your experiences and guiding us... natatawa ako pag na-alala ko ang magiging experiences ko sa mga sharings mo... iniisip ko if kakasya pa ako sa pinto ng kotse pag last trim ko na. hahaha.

anong mga vitamins niyo pala?

happy thoughts for us mga mommies...

[jen_d_gr8]

Wow nice to hear it was successful on the first try.  I suffered a miscarriage on my first try.  But thank God okay ngayon.  It's fraternal twins also.  2 different sacs.  My OB is a reproductive endocrinologist but I'm based in the province.

My prenatal vitamin is clusivol.  How about yours?

[rons_little_bb]

Im having 5 vits in the morning, 1 sa lunch, 3 after dinner. Its consist of vit c, fish oil, elevit, iberet folic, caltrate, calcibloc. Dami [textspeak!]. @17weeks malaki na din tummy ko. Napansin ko lang super pangit ko this time, compare sa 1st ko. Daming tumutubo sa face ko and body din. Hirap na din ako walk parang bigat na, sakit sa likod.

[kayin]

^^sis jen_d_gr8, wer k sa province, ang hirap maghanap ng perinatologists sa province puro based sa manila... obimin and follicard ang vitamins ko, for twins' safety naman aspirin and crinone suppository...

^sis ron's_little_bb, ang dami mong vitamins sis... baka siguru pagkatapos ng first trim dadagdagan na... oo nga, me daming pimples yung maliliit sa noo and sa likod. sa laki na ng likod lahat in-occupy nila...

[iceebaby]

You're welcome, sis Kayin.

I am happy to share my experiences. Kasi nung buntis ako with twins, I had no one to deal with my worries about twins. Surf surf lang, pero minsan... kaka surf, natatakot na ako sa mga pwedeng mangyari and all. Kaya, I stopped reading too much din, that time.

Kaya, the only thing I can tell you is... go for 36 weeks by really being in tune with your body. For this time in your lives, lovin your body = lovin your babies.

Also, get away from negative energies and people (and stress). Be positive kasi nakaka affect yun for the babies.

Girls, don't worry abt the weight gain(ha! Nagsalita! ) I'm now on my 23rd week and have already gained 34lbs! As per the book I'm reading, my weight gain is just right so I'm happy and not too too concerned. 

[dizzylizzie]

I had an ultrasound and it says im having  a Monochorionic diamnionic twin does it mean ba that it's an identical twin? ayaw kasi ko sagutin ng sonologist.
