hello sisses! so happy to finally join the preggy board here sa GT!
i was previously very active sa wedding board which helped me a lot sa preps and i hope this will be a great resource for me throughout my pregnancy. :)

i'm 8 weeks pregnant and we feel so blessed ni hubby dahil we really wanted and planned for it.
so far there are 2 major concerns ako with my pregnancy.

1. subchorionic hemorrhage. on my 6th week, i had some really scary bleeding na akala ko nag-miscarry na ko pero buti na lang when i had my tvs ok naman si baby and i saw the heartbeat! kaso dun din nakita na may sch ako na 4cm3 and was advised to go on bed rest for 2 weeks. nung 7th week tvs ko, lumiit na yung sch at 3cm3 pero may spotting pa din but very grateful pa din kame kase maganda ang development ni baby. :)
medyo problem lang namin ni hubby ngayon is we booked a vacation for el nido last month na tatama sa 9th week ko and i'm worried if the air travel may affect the hemorrhage. last check up ko with the ob sabe niya malaki ang chance na matuloy pa rin yung vacation namin but i'm really worried kase malayo sa hospital yung mga resorts.
i hope there are other sisters here with sch who can share their experiences lalo na if it involves travel din. add to that na may cyst din ako sa left ovary though sabi naman ng ob it's benign and shouldn't affect my pregnancy kailangan lang i-monitor kung lumalaki.

2. constipation. i've been constipated for years na and naging dependent ako sa laxatives so once nalaman namin na i was preggy, nag-cold turkey ako sa laxatives and the first few weeks sobrang hirap talaga ako and i can't help straining para lang makapagbawas. nagwo-worry tuloy ako na baka maapektuhan si baby and yung hemorrhage. :( i've already upped my fiber intake through psyllium fiber and umiinom din ako ng prune juice tsaka i try to eat fruits 1-3x a day. so far parang improving naman sya so i just hope na tuloy-tuloy na 'to.

anyway, sorry napahaba na yung kwento ko pero this pregnancy has my husband & i (even the whole family on both sides!) really happy & excited. a safe, happy & healthy pregnancy to all! :)

Wow sis f878!!!! Welcome to pregnancy thread!! Congratulations to you and hubby!!

We knew thru pt that im pregnant days before holy week. Pero super super faint line lang. Na sabi ni hubby di pa daw ako preggy. Since walang clinic, di muna ako nagpacheck up. Nagbora pa rin kami. I even joined the holy week procession in hubby's hometown. So just imagine the long walk! Sa bora nagparasailing pa ako and helmet diving.

When we got back in manila, we learned that im 6 weeks pregnant na. With sch din. I was advised to take bedrest for 2 weeks. Pero nagworsen. So i was advised to take bedrest for another month. Finally nawala na. And okay ang development ni baby!

On constipation, i thought wala ako problem dito. But just recently i noticed 2 days na pala ako walang attendance sa cr. Haha. Kainis. Di ko rin alam gagawin ko.

^grabe din constipation ko. sakin umaabot ng 6-7 days. imagine how horrible the feeling is. and i couldn't keep up with the required time na kailangan pag ininsert ang enema (at least 5 min) and suppositories (at least 15 min) 2 minutes pa lang tatakbo na ko sa toilet and i can feel na di ko nalalabas lahat. 😣

thanks sis belle_v2g! true! i see a lot of familiar un's here which is very assuring to me. :)

thanks sis stylus! and thanks din for sharing your sch experience. pag naghahanap kase ako online madalas us based yung mga nakikita ko and medyo luma na yung sch thread dito. so happy to know that you & your baby are doing well and na-resolve yung sa'yo. :) what week pala sya nawala sis? & may cause daw ba kung baket lumalaki?

re: constipation, i hope you both feel relief soon. ang bigat pa naman sa pakiramdam nyan. irita din ako sa feeling na parang ang konti ng nalalabas at alam ko na sobrang backed up pa rin sa loob. sa ngayon parang effective ang daily psyllium+prune juice+fruits+milk routine ko.. ang gastos nga lang. :P pero tinanggap ko na na basta para sa health ni baby, gorabels na. :D

May pregnancies daw talaga na may nakadikit na blood kay baby pag naform. Pero ang explanation sakin ng ob, kailangan daw talaga ibedrest para magheal sya on its own. Kasi kung hindi daw, lalaki ang hemorrhage. Pag napalibutan ng blood si baby, hihina ang kapit nya sa loob thus mas mabilis sya mapush down kasama ng blood.

Medyo strict kasi yung unang ob ko at masakit magsalita. Sa first 2 weeks ng bedrest ko akala ko bawal lang maglakad at magbyahe. Nung lumaki ang hemorrhage sabi nya kasalanan ko daw pag nalaglag ang baby kasi matigas daw ulo ko.

Natakot talaga ako nun. So sa 1 month extension ng bedrest ko as in nakahiga lang ako. Di rin ako umuupo nang matagal. Bumabangon lang ako pag mag ccr. Finally on my 12th week wala na.

Pahinga ka lang sis. Wag mo masyado istress ang sarili mo. Wag ka magpapagod at magbubuhat ng mabibigat. Iwas din muna sa stairs. Mawawala din yan :)

May naka experience na ba dito ng pamamanhid ng mga daliri? Na e-experience ko kasi siya Sa right fingers ko pero nawawala sila eventually. But this morning when I woke up as in lahat ng daliri ko namamanhid and halos di ko sila magalaw agad. Medyo sumakit din yung left ring finger ko. It took a while before I was able to close-open my hands.

Ako sis ganyan since 4th month ko. Akala ko nga noon chillax mode ang 2nd tri, yun pala hindi because of it. Nagkaron din ako carpal tunnel syndrome and de quervain's tenosynovitis. Nag undergo ako several therapy sessions for both kasi dumating sa point na masakit sya buong araw. Sabi ng ortho ko, common daw sa preggy kasi tumataba tayo so affected yung pag flow ng blood sa veins.

hi f878! i had sch too pero hindi ako nag bleed externally. 6th week din nakita yung sa akin and same size nung sayo. since nahirapan kami in conceiving, sobrang ingat ko and pina avoid ng doc ko ang travel. pinag bed rest ako pero hindi ko nasunod dahil pag nakahiga ako ng matagal, nahihilo ako. normal routine lang ako noon sa house pero walang chores, buhay prinsesa daw ako sabi ng tita ko hehe. i was given duvadilan and duphaston tapos nung check up ko at 10th week, wala na yung sch. dont worry sis, mawawala rin yan. take care!

sis stylus, medyo nakakatakot nga mag-advise yung una mong ob but good na naresolve talaga sa pahinga yung sa'yo. :)
actually problem ko din pala yang ob kase sa ngayon palipat-lipat ako dahil ang gulo ng schedules ng mga doctor sa medical city, madalas late pa. sana through gt mahanap ko din ang ob for me.

thank you so much sis 120515! happy to see another familiar name here. :)

sis crzysxycl, that's really comforting to know. :) though ang pinapa-take lang saken is utrogestan vaginally. walang nabanggit yung ob about duvadilan/duphaston. hopefully enough na sya to help heal the bleeding.

thank you for all the reassuring words sisses! :D

@aylatskie

I had those as well during the latter part of my pregnancy. Most painful in the morning. Finger joints.

Mine went away morning after I gave birth. :)

^yes sis masakit sa groin pati sa pempem, yung bone dun. Ang hirap nga kasi hindi pwede na nakatihaya lang paghihiga kasi diba need natin sa left side din for good blood circulation. Tinitiis ko nalang. Ah talaga sis, pag whole day suot yung belt? Suot ko nga uli yung sa akin.. Inaalis ko kasi nasisikipan na ako, free size kasi. :(

ang sikip nga sis :( nasa dulo na ng velcro yung akin...san kaya makakabili ng ibang maternity belt...meron ako nakita sa mother's care kaso too expensive for me, saglit ko na lang gagamitin eh...

Thanks sis coco_cola. It's becoming more painful nga everyday. But my OB told I just have to increase my calcium intake.

crzysxycl yes sis, LBM agad ako sa snekot. Kasi 2 tabs na ang pinainom sa akin agad dahil 3days na akong hindi nagbabawas.
So kinabukasan, LBM ng bongga. For now hindi muna ako umiinom pero mukhang kelangan ko na syang inumin kahit every other night kasi hirap talaga ako.
14wks pa lang ako pero ganito na...mahaba pa ang journey ko :)

actually problem ko din pala yang ob kase sa ngayon palipat-lipat ako dahil ang gulo ng schedules ng mga doctor sa medical city, madalas late pa. sana through gt mahanap ko din ang ob for me.

Ganyan din ako sis. Im on my 4th ob na. Hopefully last na ito at sa kanya nako manganganak. :)

Yung una sa manila doctors. Hindi maalaga. Nagspotting nako and all. Sabi normal lang daw yun? Folic acid lang nireseta sakin.

2nd- ob ng officemate ko. Sya yung harsh magsalita. Mura at magaling sya lalo sa infertility. Yung 3rd okay sana mabait at magaling. Kaso unang check up ko 8,400 ang binayaran namin.
Second check up 5,800. Kaya sabi namin ni hubby di na kami babalik sa kanya. Di pa lumalabas si baby ubos na savings namin :(

Yung travel mo sis,  pag isipan mo mabuti. Kasi ako din hindi nagbleed. Yung spotting ko as in hairline lang talaga pag nagpunas tissue. Kung yung activities nyo pagdating dun matatagtag ka or maglalakad ng mahaba, or mapapagod, paclear ka muna sa ob kung talagang safe na. Mahirap din kasi as you mentioned, walang hospital or nearby clinic dun.

You're welcome sis f878. Ah hindi pa ako nakagamit ng utrogestan, pero for sure alam naman ng OB mo yan. Follow mo lang orders ng doc mo sis. Take care! :)

angelofthemorning - oo nga sis, sayang kung bibili pa ng bago kasi ilang weeks nalang tayo hehe. tiis nalang muna.

lyrahs ah oo sis nangyari sa akin dati yan, 2 days naman ako di nakapoop. siguro dahil ang daming hindi lumabas nung days na constipated pa kaya ayun bongga rin paglabas. ;D pinapa everyday nga sa akin to kasi malapit lapit na ako, 32 weeks na kasi ako kaya dapat daw malinis yung gut sabi ng doc ko.

^^ sis crzysxycl, lapit mo na gumraduate! Nakakainggit!!

Girls, im going 16 weeks, di ko naman sinasadya pero lagi ako naka indian sit. Nakasanayan ko lang. Masama ba talaga mag indian sit sa kama? Wala naman ako nararamdamang discomfort. Pero lagi ako sinisita ng mga oldies. Pag ibinaba ko naman paa ko di rin daw pwede naka cross legs. Kaya di ko alam kung anong okay.

i remember watching oprah when i was a teen and she interviewed a doctor who said leg crossing is bad for you. but here's an article explaining the exact reasons why - https://www.yahoo.com/beauty/sitting-with-your-legs-crossed-4-reasons-to-stop-113359313402.html

mainly, it can increase blood pressure and cause back aches

^thanks for sharing sis 120515.

Stylus - Oo nga sis hehe, ang bigat na at hirap na kumilos. Naaawa sa akin hubby ko kasi napapansin nya hirap ako humanap magandang pwesto lalo sa pagtulog. Mahirap na rin huminga, konting kibot pagod na ako. Naku sis pareho tayo, hilig ko rin dati mag indian sit, ewan ko ba hehe kasi kahit nung di pa ako preggy ganyan ako. Pero ngayon hindi ko na magawa kasi naiipit tyan ko.

Lyrahs - thanks sis! di mo mapapansin yan sis nasa 30s weeks ka na rin. :) ako rin noon excited dumating dito sa stage na ito. mahirap na masaya hehe.

9 weeks na si baby! :)
had a follow up check up yesterday and sabe ni ob patuloy na lumiliit yung sch ko. she even encouraged us to push through with our el nido trip this week basta of course no strenuous activities. di na rin ako nagsa-spot daily unlike the previous 3 weeks but ayaw pa din ni doc na bumalik ako sa work para no stress and puyat.
so happy din dahil pinarinig ni doc yung hb ni baby, currently at 171bpm. :)
ang bagong concern lang namin ngayon is may risk daw ako for placenta previa dahil sa location ni baby pero too early to tell pa and i hope as our baby grows eh umakyat din yung placenta. she also switched me from utrogestan (vaginal) to duphaston and isoxsuprine.
hay. wala pa kame sa 1/4 ng pregnancy and we have a long way to go but i really hope & pray that all goes well for us and all the other moms-to-be here. :)
