all about the First Trimester {Part 2}

[mysecretself]

^i think case to case basis yan, sis. i wasn't advised to take anmum kasi during my first two months, i gained quite a lot. mataas kasi sa sugar ang anmun so hindi sha recommended sa mga prone sa gestational diabetes and dun sa mga mabilis tumaba. i asked my ob about it and she said that she will only recommend it to me if hindi lumalaki ng baby as it should. but so far, so good. i get my calcium from healthy food and a separate calcium supplement. usually breastfeeding advocates do not recommend taking it as well.

Kayo ba sis laging nag-aacid? To the point na nasusuka na kayo dahil sa acid?

[Scubadoobidoo]

Wifey acid reflux during her pregnancy. To the point she wakes up at night. Sagot lang Tums. Safe din sabi ng OB namin and sis in law ko sa US.

[fionnah325]

pahinga mo lang muna yan@coyenho baka stress lang yan...

[prettykitkat]

@coyenho - Ako rin sis, I've been having episodes of headache and migraine, lalo na last week and two weeks ago. Safe naman daw paracetamol (biogesic) but refrain from drinking it often. Ako I was ready to take it pero tiniis ko na lang muna. Sabi ng ob ko, check on the cause of the headache. Sakin I really think it's because of lack of sleep. Hindi kasi ako nakakakumpleto ng sleep because of work, laging mga 5-7 hours lang. And lagi akong nagigising to pee. Tapos nag move kami recently ng place so busy lagi mag ayos. Kahit weekends, nagigising ako agad and hindi naman ako nakakapag-nap in the afternoon.

Drinking lots of water might help, and bawiin natin sa healthy food.

2nd pregnancy. And just like my first born. Super selan! Whole day ako may morning sickness. Kaya lagi akong nanghihina. Even water vinovomit ko. (Sorry. TMI. )

Anyway. Do you have anything na tinake during your pregnancy to reduce nausea/morning sickness? I've done almost everything, ginger ale, ginger candy, crackers, coconut water, pero no effect pa din.

Hello, tatawid na ko herr from engagement/wedding forum. im on my 8th week/1st baby. So far wala naman akong morning sickness nor pronounced cravings/food aversion. Though i strictly follow the small meals advice ni OB, and keeping crackers handy.  I also slice apples, oranges, pears, banana or any fruit (ayoko lang ng ripe mango natatamisan ako) or carrots/cucumber to bring with me sa office.  So far so good. Ü

My first OB did recommend anmum (OB is medyo old na late 60s na) but when I moved to another OB (mas bata), she advised me to take calcium tablets. Based daw kasi sa mga studies in the US, mas mababa ang mortality rate ng mga laki sa milk. Marami raw din sugar. Dapat nga raw nagstop na ang kids at the age of 2. So, yung mga natitira ko pang anmum, ibigay ko na lang daw kay hubby. But sobrang laki ng calcium tablets, hindi ko matake kahit hatiin siya.

[Scubadoobidoo]

Yung anmum kasi sobrang taas sa sugar. Drinking regular milk twice a day will do. Habol mo kasi dyan calcium. That and prenatal vitamins should cover all the baby needs. Plus a healthy diet. Avoid fruits na mataas in sugar like mangoes, grapes and apples.

[nicoletta]

I find it funny that most of you are complaining about the baby bump   That's what I hope to avoid naman sa 2nd pregnancy ko.  Grabe, every things happening so soon!

[chizzyness]

will have our first baby!

now on my 2nd trim.. im one of those preggy na never nagsuka nung 1st trim ko. i only felt hungry as in super hungry and that's the reason why i really gained weight a LOT(more than 10kg lol) kahit 1st trim pa lang. Also, I was super sleepy.

i had spotting pero long story, i took some meds and all is well naman, we heard the heartbeat of baby last checkup namin.. then next week, another checkup again so im praying na baby is still very very fine.

i'll also ask my ob if i can take na lang a regular milk instead of anmum dahil yung chocolate lang bet ko which is parang nakadagdag talaga sa timbang ko :p

sino dito mga sis hindi nagsuka lalo na nung 1st trim?

[coyenho]

Congrats sis .. Lucky those preggies na never naka experience mag suka ..stay healthy

[JAZRINA]

@coyenho - sis, ako 2nd trim na pro may all day morning sickness pa rin. Used to it na. Hirap pro isip ko na lang si baby.

[supladitang cute]

Hi mga sis. I've tried taking Holly's milk, super sarap ng chocolate milk nila! Sana ok lang although bawal ata matatamis. Cant help it eh. Ask ko lang ok pa kaya magacewater spa ng first trimester?

[damsel.in.distress]

Ako sis pinagbawalan ako ng OB ko magswim or lublob sa public pool or dagat. To avoid infections daw especially sa first trimester na nagsstart pa lang magform mga organs ni baby. Pero check mo pa din sa OB mo.

[supladitang cute]

Thanks sis damsel. Been wanting to go to the beach and pool para makapagswim.    Ask ko rin baka pwede kahit sa beach. Nakita ko kasi si Bianca Gonzales nagpunta ng El Nido at 3 mos so naisip ko baka pwede.

[mysecretself]

^nung first tri, hindi ako pinagbawalan ng ob. basta wag lang daw akong magla-laps. hehe. yung simpleng tubog lang sa water, okay lang. so depende na siguro sa ob. kung may uti ka sis, baka hindi ka muna bigyan ng go signal.
