all about the First Trimester {Part 2}

[prettykitkat]

Sis coyenho, how are you? Just keep on praying. God has the best plans.

Sis supladita, yes sis bawal retin a, retinoids, retinols, tretinoin, etc. I used to put tret but I stopped once I learned I'm pregnant. Best to consult sa ob or derma yung mga products na gamit mo sis. May mga doctors na super conservative, may iba namang mas lenient with what we put on our skin. So far yung common na no-no's would be mga retinols (vit a products), BHAs (salicylates), hyrdoquinone, whitening products.

^sis coyenho, that's good news! yes prayers talaga morning sickness is sometimes actually a good sign of a healthy pregnancy. Hassle lang talaga. Ako up until week 10-11 walang morning sickness, tas biglang nagka nausea kainis haha. Until now at 14+ wks I still get nauseous at work, feeling magtthrowup pero hindi natutuloy. Pareho tayo sis sakit ng ulo ko everyday, migraine. Safe naman daw mag paracetamol pero hindi pa ako nagttake. Yay for your baby bump mga ganyang week din naging noticeable yung tummy ko. Tas kakatuwa every week pansin talaga na mas lumalaki sya

Are you still on duphaston? Take care sis and happy pregnancy!

[coyenho]

im still taking duphaston pero hanggang bukas nalang. 2weeks lang kasi sabi ni ob.. do you still drink maternity milk pa? 2x ako pinag take uminom. minsan sinusuka ko na lang sya kasi hindi na talaga matake ng sikmura ko .. at 14 weeks sobrang visible na ba yung bump mo sis?...

[prettykitkat]

^yup sis I take anmum, pero one glass lang and every other day lang. Nasusuya ako kasi talaga (I'm not very fond of milk ever since) and feeling ko super busog ako after. I take it at night and naiinis rin ako kasi wiwi ako ng wiwi di ako makatulog maayos hehe. Mga ibang sis natin, di na nirecommend ng ob mag milk kasi mataas sugar nya, as long as healthy/balanced yung diet and nasa tamang weight. I think yung mga underweight yun ang pinapainom para makahabol.

Bilog na tummy ko sis hehe. 15 wks na ako today di pa naman basketball size pero kita na sya pag nakadress. Dati parang may puson/ busog lang, pero ngayon nakaumbok na sya. Di pa kasi ako tumataba sa face or arms/legs pero lumalaki tummy kaya mas noticeable sya. Pero pag nakashorts and loose top, kaya pang itago

Kailan due date mo sis? Ingat lagi for baby.

@coyenho - congrats sis. konting ingat pa ha. and keep praying.

Ako until now (14 weeks) may all day sickness pa rin.. hehe.. nausea at vomiting pa rin ako all day pro less na ngayong week ang vomiting. Nahihilo lang talaga ako now almost the entire day. Sabi nila sometimes hanggang 4 months to or kung swerte talaga eh all throughout pregnancy na sana ay wag naman.

Medyo malaki na rin bump ko. pro sabi ng boss ko prang ang liit pa daw. hehe.. mas malaki pa daw puson nya.

Just this morning. BFP.

After 6mos of trying. I think duphaston helped us na makabuo. OB prescribed me to take duphaston 2x a day for 1 week. Last take is april 27. Dapat few days before nun magkaron ako. May 1 wala pa. May 2, i texted her if it is normal or what. She told me to wait until may 10.

This morning. Bigla lang. Out of the blue. I decided to use my last pt na stock sa bahay. Ayun. Positive. And lagi kasi akong uhaw, nawiwiwi and gutom sa umaga. I immediately called my OB. She prescribed me again duphaston. Is it safe ba mga sis?

Pacheckup ako on sat. Hopefully hindi to false positive.

[itsnikimendoza]

^congrats sis!:) do you have PCOS kaya ka nagduphaston?

Safe yan sis, pampakapit ng baby yan during the early stages of pregnancy. sabi nila mas malaki daw chance na pag positive, positive talaga. kahit faint line lang, positive na yun.


have a safe pregnancy!:)

[damsel.in.distress]

^thank you sis!

Yes. I have pcos. Nung april 27 ko lang din nalaman. That's the time kasi lang ako finally nagdecide na magpapacheck-up na talaga ako. Para nga magkababy na kami. I think. Answered prayer din.

Sana magtuloy tuloy to and healthy. I'm a bit worried baka blighted ovum or may complications. Hayst.

[itsnikimendoza]

Ganyan din ako sis, PCOS din condition ko and ttc din kami ni hubby for a while. Pray lang sis, normal lang siguro magworry. sabi nila pag magiging mommy ka na, lagi ka nang magppray.

^thank you sis!

Yes. I have pcos. Nung april 27 ko lang din nalaman. That's the time kasi lang ako finally nagdecide na magpapacheck-up na talaga ako. Para nga magkababy na kami. I think. Answered prayer din.

^^sis coyenho, my edd is oct 26, pero per last us, oct 23 sya. Don't worry about the bump size sis, iba iba sya talaga eh akala ko visible na bump ko at 8wks, pero ngayong nakikita ko yung weekly pictures ko and comparing them against current week 15, wala pa pala yun hehe. Okay lang ituloy duphaston sis, it helps rin eh. Ako i took it 3x a day from wks 5-13. Masakit lang sa bulsa

Yesterday i had my monthly ob checkup, doppler lang and malakas naman heartbeat ni baby. Sana tuloy tuloy syang okay and sana healthy. Nag gain na rin ako ng 1-1.5lbs since i got pregnant. Mag 4mos na ako, ang bilis! Can't wait to have the CAS @24 wks and know baby's gender na. Si hubby ayaw malaman hahaha. So lahat ng tao makakaalam sya lang hindi.

Kamusta na kayo mga sis? Happy mothers day in advance

[salvage_me]

hello guys! had PT today and BFP! So excited (TTC din for quite sometime) but nervous too. Will take another PT later and tomorrow AM (hobby lang hehe) just to make sure. Sana both BFP ang lumabas. Planning to go to the OB na din bukas para magpacheck. Please include us in your prayers please. We want this baby so bad.

[fionnah325]

just think positive @salvage_me...'ll pray for yousa ganyan sis

[salvage_me]

^ thank you sis!

[fionnah325]

welcome sis pray lang always...kami si partner ko plan din magkababy

Dont worry about the bump size. My wifeys baby bump was small sa 1st and 2nd trim pero humataw sa last. She just gave birth last april 28. Eat healthy and sleep early. If acid reflux take Tums. (Buy it sa US its cheaper and safe for pregnant women). Pag nasusuka kayo it helps to put an ice cube in your mouth. Be careful about anmum and other milks for pregnant women kasi mataas sobra sugar content. You may end up with a heavy baby (CS instead of normal). Wife just drank 2 regular cowhead milk daily. Load up on vitamins specially folic acid. (to avoid defects and autism). Moriamin naman helps ensure the food you take gets absorbed by the baby. If you can buy Nature Made prenatal multi+DHA vitamins. That one for brain development ng baby. Eat salmon or tuna once a week if you can too. Avoid mangos, grapes and other fruits high in sugar.

Wife was on duphaston and duvadolan for almost the whole pregnancy. Duphaston pina stop nung 2cm na sya. Duvadulan pina stop lang until 4 days before she gave birth.

[salvage_me]

just had my first checkup last saturday after we got a positive nung friday. OB didnt ask me to have blood test to confirm if pregnant ako, just another PT sa clinic nya. ganun ba talaga? may mga tests ako to be submitted on my next check up which is scheduled on May 23 (it includes urine, cbc and 2 others i forgot na--i dont have the list now hehe). Tapos sa May 23 na din yung unang ultrasound via TVS (to check heartbeat din daw). I asked friends if nag TVS sila for the heartbeat, di naman daw. para yung sa abdominal lang daw. Anung experience niyo during first check up nyo? ganun ba talaga?

Thanks!

[fionnah325]

salvage_me: nong first check up ko e pt sana ako ng ob ko kaso sinabi ko na pang 4 times na ako nag pt positive kaya ang ginawa lang niya sa akin is kinalculate niya yong due date ko taz binigyan na niya ako ng vitamins afterwards....pinacheck din niya urine ko,dugo ko after....yon lang ang ginawa ng first check up ko sis

[salvage_me]

^ di pala ako nagiisa na walang blood test. kasi yung friend ko (though she was in another country nung nalaman niya preggy siya) pinagbloodtest daw siya. nakakaparanoid magwait for the utz para sa heartbeat. hay. parang di ko madibdib na preggy ako not until i see the heartbeat. natatakot ako na baka magfalse positive yung HPT. haha!

[fionnah325]

sis salvage_me: ilang weeks na ulit si baby sis?para confident ka talaga na positive at gusto mo makita heartbeat ni baby magpatransvaginal ultrasound ka nalang kasi makikita mo jan ang heartbeat ni baby ganyan ang pingawa sa akin ng ob ko nong nag 16 weeks tiyan ko or 12 weeks ba yon...

[salvage_me]

fionnah325: 6 weeks si baby today. babalik kami sa May 23 for my TVS, bali 8 weeks si baby nun. Antagal nga lang, 2 weeks pa ipagiintay namin. Kakaloka lang. Hehe.
