[ashleycole]

16 weeks na 'ko dis day pero Elevit pa rin ang vitamins ko.

[Tiana]

I'm 16 weeks na, I'm taking

Cal Chews
Anmum

[RuthEs]

Prenatal Vitamins from Healthy Options (complete RDA for folic iron and calcium)
DHA gel capsules

On my 13th week.

Regarding Iron, my doc said my prenatal vitamins have sufficient iron but at 5 months, we will add iron intake. =)

For calcium, she suggests me eating malunggay and drinking milk to supplement my prenatal vits.

[Karakrus]

I'm just wonderin. Hindi kasi ako niresetahan ng OB ko ng calcium & vitamin C.

Anmum & Hemarate lang talaga since 2nd trimester. I want to take somethig to boost my immune system.

Ang tagal pa kasi ng balik ng OB ko from vacation. Ano kaya yung best supplement to boost immune system? Vitamin C? Ano usually recommended in third trimester? i'm already 36 weeks.

I went to my real ob last week,  nagulat ako ang daming niyang binigay na med.

May metfemin, folic acid, fish oil, vit d, then may isa pa forgot the name para iwas contraction daw..

may mga plus size sis din ba tayo na preggy ngyn? I want to know kung ganito ba talaga?

[ducky]

Folic acid only on my 1st -4th month since I still had morning sickness on my 4th.
After which, i stopped taking folic and had obimin plus and calciumade.
im on my 5th month now and taking obimin plus (multivitamins), calciumade and omega 3- as advised by my OB.

[ashleycole]

at 20 weeks pinalitan na ni OB ang vitamins ko to OBIMIN PLUS

[jentot11]

Nung 4th-12 weeks ko..
Folicard and Anmum lang..

Then as I enter 2nd trimester, pinaswitch na ako sa mga multivitamins
Mamawhiz and mamafer..
Then anmum pa din..

Minsan na lang ako maganmum, ambilis ko kasi tumaba.. Hehe

Im 18th weeks btw..

Wifey even before pregnancy loaded on folic acid for a year plus One A Day for women. When she got pregnant. Double load on folic plus moriamin and iberet. Plus DHA+multi vitamins for pregnant women (buy them sa US. Way cheaper). Duphaston and duvadolan daily until 8 month ( working mom kasi daw sabi ng OB). She just gave birth to a healthy baby boy last april 28. No anmum only cowhead na milk twice a day. For acid reflux she takes Tums. Safe for pregnant women yun.

^nakakatuwa ka naman, very involved sa pregnancy and panganganak ni wifey.

ako naman:

1st trimester - folic acid lang
2nd trimester - obimin plus + calciumade

still on isoxilan and utrogestan, pero di ko alam hanggang kelan.

[Papiseed]

2nd trimester:
Obimin plus
Calciumade
Hemarate

Tsaka Cecon since mabilis magbleed ang gums ko 

[ashleycole]

@mysecretself hi sis, may spotting ka ba kaya may isoxilan at utrogestan ka? sa 'kin kasi every 6 hours for 2 days ang isoxilan ko then 7 days naman ang utrogestan.

[mysecretself]

^wala, sis. pero may subchorionic hemorrhage ako. may bleeding pero sa loob lang, no spotting. mga 7 weeks pa lang, nagttake na ako. 2x ang utrogestan, 3x a day ang isoxilan ko from 7 weeks until 14 weeks tapos ngayon, reduced dosage na. 1x ang utrogestan tuwing bedtime tapos 2x a day [textspeak!] isoxilan.

@jem buscopan is prescribed para lumambot cervix mo in preparation for labor. Wifey was prescribed that a a week before giving birth. She was also injected with buscopan during labor at the hospital.

Also for those mommies worried about milk supply buy fenugreek supplement sa healthy option. Take it after giving birth. Grabe sa milk supply. It will double your milk by 100% in 24 hours. Dosage is 3 times a day. Wifey cut down to twice a day kasi isang araw palang dumami sobra na milk nya agad.

[Papiseed]

Nirecommend din ba ng OB nyo to take Anmum?
Sa first OB ko kasi, nireseta nya yun, pero when I changed OB, hindi na. 

[fionnah325]

@Papiseed: yup nirecommend ng ob ko yan yong anmum..bakit hindi na sa ob mo?

[junebride]

Sis Papiseed, yes sis nireseta ni OB two glasses per day. Pero ako when I entered my 2nd trimester ginawa ko na lang one glass per day kasi talgang umay na umay na ako haha.

Have not tried Enfamama though. Pero a friend of mine said ok din daw yun.

meds ko now : Feofer, Medcare OB and calcium ascorbate. Check -up ko this Sat. Im not sure if maddagdagan or same pa rin ang vits. turning 21 weeks this tuesday.

[chizzyness]

hi mga sis, ilang mg yung calcium na tintake niyo?

[fionnah325]

400mg yata yon sis chizzyness

[junebride]

Mga sis ask ko lang. Sa mga gumanit ng iberet folic, yun ba yung iberet-folic 500 (multivitamins + iron) ? Or merong iberet folic lang [textspeak!]? Thanks
