hi sisses!!
nagpacheckup kami kanina sa bagong OB. one from Bulacan, actually from our house, less than 5minutes away lang yung hospital na pinapagawa nya (her own, not yet finished pero dun na sya nagchecheckup) and ganun din yung layo (give or take a few meters) yung current hospital na pinapaganakan nya ng patients nya.
we did an ultrasound to check our baby and wow! kung dati ang problem eh behind sa size si baby, aba ngayon humahabol indeed! i think the eggs, hot tsokolate, and champorado really helped palakihin si baby! tapos napansin ko din kasi na lately, tuwing 4.30-5.30pm, gutom ako. and not just for light meryenda, im talking rice and ulam! usually id cook eggs pa nga eh hehe!! so yun, lumaki si baby, at narewind ang aming due date.
from september 26-27, naging september 20-22

pero we can give birth daw as early as 2 weeks before that. nakakawindang!! binisita ko yung gagawing nursery (currently bodega/plantsahan) and nakakaoverwhelm na wala pang naaayos.
what's more disconcerting is yung flight ni babydaddy. september 25 arrival nya

he really wants to be there sa delivery. he filed na his leave sa work na ang last day nya eh september 23. so ngayon di ko alam if maaabutan pa nya ang delivery or not. 3 weeks lang ang approved leave nya. haaay...
tapos i dont want to give birth before sya dumating. dala pa nya yung ibang gamit ni baby like the nailcutter and breast pump ko na manual and other stuff. sabi ko pagisipan din nya and check nya again with HR nila. if he gets here early pero full term na ko, im planning magpainduce na lang para masulit din nya si baby.
according sa ultrasound, kulang pa daw ako sa water. not extremely na kelangan maconfine, but i need to go on water therapy. i told her na i was already told that last month and have been downing mga 3 liters of water a day, plus prune juice (1-2glasses) plus anmum (2 glasses). so apparently, i'm not retaining the fluids. eh dapat 2-3liters of water a day na yung water therapy. so she told me to add Gatorade. feeling ko lalaki ako ng sobra haha!
she added calcium sa mga iniinom kong gamot now, told me i can now start walking exercises (lumitaw sa ultrasound eh 35weeker na si baby, pero upon computation with the first ultrasound, 33-34weeker daw), and that if i feel na ang dami kong gamot na iiniinom, the one thing i can opt not to continue is the Obimin (prenatal multivitamins). pwede ko daw ubusin supply ko nun and stop na if i want. pero everything else, tuloy pa din, plus the calcium. pati anmum ko, 2 glasses a day pa din daw.
as for the OB we saw, she was very kind! and she explained every little thing talaga, my mom and i liked there. so if ever, pwedeng pwede akong abutan ng labor dito sa Bulacan haha!
PS: OMG the rate difference ng delivery (normal) dito at sa ob ko sa st lukes is heartstopping lol! 13-15k basic Normal delivery pero hindi painless epidural. will add daw 5k for painless tapos continuous and pag add sa bill depende sa mauubus na gamot at length ng labor. sa st lukes naman, 70k ang quote samen ni ob. although yung dito sa bulacan, di ko pala natanong if private hehe. will ask her again next time. she wants to see me in 2 weeks for another ultrasound.
