Babies Due 4th Quarter of 2014 (Oct-Nov-Dec) - Thread 2

[blueflame]

We are now 36w2d ni Bebe. At super hirap na hirap na akong humiga at tumayo. Totoo nga yata na yung 9th month ang pinakamatagal.

ilovetigger - i was prescribed with evening primrose oil, too. pero sa Saturday na ko mag-start uminom. we'll be 37 weeks then. Para kahit may effect agad, at least full term na kami.

raiza0022 - same tayo sis, laging naka-labas ang tiyan, parang si Pooh! Pero hindi naman ako kinakabagan. Though sumakit tiyan ko na parang lbm. Feeling ko sa camote lang na nimerienda ko nung isang araw.

Share ko lang laman ng hospital bag ni Bebe & bag namin ni hubby. Medyo marami sya. Mahirap na baka magkulang and we want to expect the unexpected, who knows baka ma-CS ako  kahit NSD preferred namin. If that happens, meaning mas matagal sa hospital. Here's my list:

I think baby had a growt spurt, the jeans and dresses I wore 2 weeks ago that had some room pa fit just right! Eeekks! Sana baby won't get too big.

Also got a little worried yesterday, I kept getting stomach cramps in different places last night and baby wasn't moving around a lot - even when I would jiggle my belly. But today's he's super active na! I guess he was lazy yesterday.

Hi mga sis, I am currently on my 32 weeks pregnancy, nagmamanas ang paa ko, hindi naman ako mahilig sa maalat, junkfoods, at ilang months na din ako hindi kumakain ng fast foods.

Paano kaya alisin pamamanas ng paa? Nakakatakot itsura eh,,,

Hi mga sis, I am currently on my 32 weeks pregnancy, nagmamanas ang paa ko, hindi naman ako mahilig sa maalat, junkfoods, at ilang months na din ako hindi kumakain ng fast foods.

Paano kaya alisin pamamanas ng paa? Nakakatakot itsura eh,,,

Last week napansin ng sister ko na parang medyo manas na paa ko wala na daw yung buto sa gilid haha kaya ginawa ko kinagabihan nakataas na yung paa ko nung natulog ako ayun nawala naman ilang araw na rin ako nakataas ang paa pag natutulog. Try mo din baka mawala din pamamanas ng paa mo.

[hun_nie08]

sis Beng01 yes tama si sis decemberbride07 itaas ang paa sa gabi saka magkakain ka ng mga beans like munggo...

[chubbycheeks]

Naka-pack na hospital bag ni baby. Here's what I'm planning to put in mine:

1 Dressing gown
1 Maternity dress (going home outfit)
Disposable underwear-about 10 pcs
2 nursing bras
Rubber slippers
1 bath towel
4 Maxi pads- will buy more after na ng delivery since doctor may advise adult diaper instead
Toiletries and some makeup

Still thinking if i should bring:
1. Pajamas or night shirt- is it advisable to change into this after delivery or maduduguan (sorry, graphic) lang?
2. Abdominal binder- magagamit ko na ba agad toh if NSD?

update: 35 weeks + 2 days na kami ni baby. last thursday nagkaron ako ng mga rashes sa kamay, medyo napraning ako. saturday pa talaga ang check up ko pero di ko na pinaabot, friday pa lang punta na kami kay ob kasi friday morning buong arms and legs na ang rashes! plus si baby, lazy mode nung morning, kahit anong gising ko di masyado gumagalaw. ayun, pagdating kay ob ok naman daw si baby ang likot pa nga daw. niresetahan ako ni ob ng antihistamine pero isa lang baka daw allergy sa nakain ko kasi daw kung viral infection dapat nilalagnat ako or kung ano man.

also, di ako naggain ng weight sa loob ng 2 weeks. si baby di rin naggain ng weight as per ob's measurement. possible pala yun no?

ob gave me evening primrose oil din, pero start ko pa inumin on saturday pag 36 weeks na, 3x a day din.

[ilovetigger]

Sis BLUEFLAME: same na same pala ang gestational age ng baby natin. I will be 37 weeks also on Saturday. Sabi ko nga kay hubby I will take the primrose oil on Friday na lang para just in case mag labor na the ff day eh term na si baby. I've read kasi that sometimes in 3 days eh may effect na. Ayaw ko naman na maging late preterm pa si baby diba. We've reached this far! Kaunting kembot na lang. I'm really hoping na by 38 weeks or before 39 weeks eh manganak na ako.

[chubbycheeks]

^ sis, san nabibili yun under pads? Any particular brand?

[ilovetigger]

^Sis surprisingly sa SM Grocery Store pa ako nakabili ng underpads na 2pcs lang. I think 36 pesos lang siya for the 2pc/pack. TRAVELER yung brand L-XL yung size. Sa mercury kasi mas mahal and mas madami eh I don't think I would need na super dami. Even the adult diaper na 2 pcs dun ko din nabili.

[ilovetigger]

Mahal din kasi sa hospital ang underpads eh. If i remember correctly, 100 pesos each dun sa sister ko noon. Pag binigyan na din pala kayo mga sis ng bill ng hospital, hingin niyo yung itemized billing ha. Kasi sometimes they charge items that you didn't even use. I don't know if sinasadya or by accident but double check niyo din and pagdating niyo pa lang dun sabihin niyo na na may mga underpads kayo, diaper etc para hindi na ma double-charge.

I remembered my 2 year old nephew was confined before for diarrhea/fever. Naka diaper lang siya lagi nun tapos when we checked the hospital bill meron ba namang naka charge na adult urinal. Kaloka. Hehe.

[Beng01]

hi sisses decemberbride07 at hun_nie08, thanks sa advice

Sige kakain ako ng hopiang munggo bibili ako isang box at pagdating ko sa bahay ipapatong ko sa pillows mga paa ko.
Pansin ko pag umaga hindi masyado manas, pero pagdating ng gabi grabe kala mo paa ng elepante huhu

[blueflame]

ilovetigger - oo nga sis! Kinakausap ko rin si baby pwede na sya lumabas anytim between sept. 27 - oct 4. hanggat maari, ayaw ko ng paabutin sya sa due date natin kasi hirap na hirap na ko. every morning may feeling na bugbog yung right side ng tummy ko, sobrang galaw nya sa gabi.

Thanks for reminding me about the underpads. yan ang bibilhin ko later!

We are also checking the quickest route to the hospital. Though malapit lang kami sa Lourdes, sobrang dami namang construction sa papunta dun kaya may mga alternative route na kami. Sabi ko kay hubby pwede namang lakarin ko lang, kaya ng 30mins lang yun para exercise na rin. haha! yun eh kung makalakad pa ako habang nagle-labor! 

[hakunamatata]

update update...28 weeks na kami. ang bilis pero ang baby bump ko pang 6 mos. hindi halatang 7 mos. na. pero may times na masakit na ang balakang ko.

[Len0523]

Ako medyo malayo sa hospital. From Pasig to Cardinal. Sana pag manganganak ako wag masyado mabilis. Haha. Baka kase matraffic tapos abutin sa daan. Wag naman sana. 
Maghahazzard na lang on the way to hospital. Palage pa naman traffic sa Ortigas Extension. Mygossh!

[raiza0022]

^ yan din iniintindi ko eh, yung traffic if ever umaga ko manganganak, kasi yung hospital na panganganakan ko, service road lang ang pwedeng daan, alanganin sya sa express way.. buti sana kung sure akong madaling araw ulit ako magle-labor!

Weekly check up namin later, nag progress na kaya ang 1 month kong pagiging 1cm? 
Yung anak ko baby pa lang pasaway na, ang dami namin issues ng pre term labor, ngayon pwede na sya lumabas, ayaw na.. parang tumaas nanaman nga yata tummy ko.

[Len0523]

Ako naman parang feeling ko nasa baba na sya lahat napakaactive nya. Kanina pang umaga. Tapos pinipisil ko yung bandang taas puro hangin sya.

[raiza0022]

Share ko pala... naalala ko, tinuruan ako ni OB last time kapain si baby eh.. sabi nya, higa daw ako, kapain ko bandang puson ko, meron daw parang bilog na maliit na bola mkakapa ako sa gitna ng pelvic bone ko, ulo daw ni baby yun..

I tried pag uwi ko, oo nga.. nakapa ko nga sa gitna may bilog na matigas 
Tapos ask ko kung ano yung matigas minsan sa taas naman, minsan nasa right, nasa left.. sabi nya pwet daw ni baby yun...
Haha di ko ma-imagine.

[hun_nie08]

^hahaha korek sis raiza0022 sa bum ni baby yun hahaha si hubby nga yun dati ang kinikiss e. akala ko kasi yun ang ulo ni baby nung malaman namin na bum nya tawa ng tawa yung tatay.. nasa tyan palang daw niloloko na sya ng baby namin pinapakiss daw ang pwet. hehe 

[Ms.Mafi]

update update...28 weeks na kami. ang bilis pero ang baby bump ko pang 6 mos. hindi halatang 7 mos. na. pero may times na masakit na ang balakang ko.

sis hakunamatata, pareho tayo. Lagi ako nasasabihan na "maliit daw ako magbuntis" pa 7 months na din kami ni baby pero liit padin tyan ko compare sa mgg ibang moms na 7 months na din ang tyan hehe

pero okay naman daw ang size ni baby, talagang maliit lang siguro tyan ko.
