Ako beside sa common discomfort ng pregnancy

- tigdas
- neurophaty
- high blood pressure due to stress

[nickylovesnancy]

Im on my 3rd trimester, ggraduate na ko s pregnancy woes and concerns ko. 
Nung 1st and 2nd trimester nag ka UTI ako and super painful and uncomfortable ang pabalik balik sa restroom.  Also GERD pag madalas hindi natutunawan agad. Itchy stretchmarks na I hope will fade in time.

1st trimester - Measles

i had signs of Rubella(German Measles) low grade fever, rashes and joint pains but thank God it was confirmed negative for Rubella but positive for Measles. hindi convinced si OB na measles, viral exanthem lang daw dahil mababa ang immune system ng preggy. this made me worried hanggang sa nanganak ako. kahit nakita sa CAS na normal si baby, hindi naman sure kung bingi, mentally retarded, etc. thank God healthy si baby. 2 weeks ko etong iniyakan dahil sa takot kong magpositive ang result sa Rubella.

2nd tri- UTI and extreme back pain

UTI - wala akong naramdaman kahit konting pain when urinating. sa urinalysis lang naconfirm. i was on antibiotic for a week. mahal ang antibiotic for preggy. almost p50/each, 3x a day.

back pain - ang akala ko severe uti dahil sa kidney area pa ang masakit. muscle strain lang pala dahil lumalaki na ang tummy

3rd trimester

inguinal pain - mangiyak ngiyak ako sa sakit ng singit ko na nagstart around 38 weeks. normal lang sabi ni OB kasi si baby napwesto na. kahit nakahiga napakasakit. ang hirap bumangon. side lying position lang nakakaalis ng sakit pero kapag nagmove to other side, ayun na naman.

cramps - eto ang matindi. hindi lang ako teary eyed sa madaling araw kundi hagulgol na sa sakit. inincrease ng OB to 3x/day ang calcium tabs.

swelling of feet - walang pain. normal din daw because of gravity. pero kapag sa gabi inelevate mo ang legs mo and sa morning manas pa rin then there is something wrong..

[cloudzy_09]

Ako din nag ka measles pero hindi na namin pina test kasi 3rd trimester na ako nag ka measles pero sobrang takot ko din noon. Pero na fe feel ko naman muka ok si baby kaya hindi na ako kinakabahan baka nga din chikungunya virus ang tumama hindi measles.

1. Flatulence - as in sobrang kabag
2. Nausea and vomiting - mas madalas sa gabi
3. Bleeding
due to placenta previa marginalis (low lying placenta) - naresolve on the 5th month
due to cervical polyp 1.5 inches long - hindi natuloy ang polypectomy (polyp removal) kase madalas magcontract ang uterus ko, matigas ang tiyan ko. Pero nung nanganak ako via CS weeks after nawala nang kusa yung polyp
4. Frequent Uterine contraction - laging matigas ang tiyan ko. Kahit during abdominal ultrasound, nadedetect yung contractions. Ang dami kong natake na Duvadilan, pampakapit... During early months, Utrogestan at Duphaston ang nireseta.
5. Oligohydramnios on the 7th month - low amniotic fluid index kahit nakaka 7 liters of water a day ako. Naconfine ako for rehydration.

I just thank God, may heart problem kase ako before my pregnancy. I was hypertensive, with heart block malfunction and cardiomegaly (enlarged heart)... Pero during my pregnancy, wala akong naging problema sa mga yan... And tests showed na normal lahat... pati rheumatoid arthritis ko, hindi ko naging problema, it's because of lower immune system ng mga buntis.

[cloudzy_09]

pag nababasa ko yung mga discomfort at sakit natin pag nag bubuntis grabe napaka noble talaga ng pagiging mommy. Hindi ko rin mapigilan maingit sa mga buntis na parang effortless lang pati sa panganganak isang iri lang tapos na.

[Coffee_lover]

Oo nga kakainggit... na-experience ko ngayon super sakit ng v part ko lalo na pag babangon at maglalakad.. ang hapdi ng feeling! Gusto na manganak para tapos n lahat

[OD_Mom]

Hi mommies. I'm on my 32nd week now. Buti nalang at may nagcreate ng topic na to, may avenue for venting complaints! hehe.

Now na third trimester, my pains are:
1. Sa left butt, may feeling na parang may ipit na ugat or bugbog na muscle or something!
2. Yung skin between my boobs at kung san nagsta-start yung belly bump, sometimes it feels like napupunit inside. Mahapdi! At night while I'm sleeping sumasakit sya, nagigising talaga ako
3. Braxton Hicks. Killer ang sakit pag umatake. Hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko, hindi ako makagalaw sa sakit.
4. Mega heartburn.
5. Parang yung mga joints ko nagiging rusty at bumibigat Kaya every night, I really find time to do some stretching exercises. Sarap yung feeling pag tumutunog yung mga buto sa likod, sa tuhod, sa shoulders.

[gharz412]

[Coffee_lover]

Di ko pa din alam yunv braxton hicks na yan now that i am on my 35th weeks. Super hirap na humiga at tumayo sa kama. I am now using maternity belt kasi pag naglalakad ako at tumatayo may parang naiipit na ugat. Mabigat na daw kasi si baby..  2-4weeks na lang makikita ko na ang lil angel ko.

If you're diabetic, pls work with your perinatologist w/ your pregnancy. Were you given antibiotics for your UTI? Drink plenty of water, eat more malunggay, plus use Betadine vaginal wash to keep out of infection.

[kasheica]

kasheica thanks sis..

gct yung test na yun tapos 11.05 ang lumabas na result sobrang taas daw kaya pinakuha ako ng FBS at Hsba1c test, kanina ako ng pa test.. goodluck sakin sana hindi diabetic

mataas nga almost 200 mg/dl...pero malay mo baka napadami lang kain mo ng carbs/sweets

If diabetes runs in your family, me possibility nga...anyway, the FBS and HBa1C will confirm it though..
Get the results ASAP para if ever positive, doctor will advise further management of it.
