all about the First Trimester {Part 3}

^sis the common cold is usually viral. Antibiotics wouldn't work rin kasi they're only for bacteria


I had cough and colds rin on my 11th week. One week barado ilong ko. Supportive treatment lang ang recommended: rest and increased oral fluid intake. It resolved on its own naman may focal contraction lang sa placenta ni baby na nawala rin kahapon.

^ yun nga sis ang ayaw ko yung magkaroon ng cough para di ako mag-antibiotics. pero s ngayon nangangati na lalamunan ko kaya mejo inuubo-ubo na ako... I'm drinking salabat. i hope di matuloy. So sis, ikaw nung inubo ka, hindi ka na din pinainom ng antibiotics?

[cescilay]

@i_am_zayda I suffered terrible cough noong I think 8th week ko. Sensitive kasi throat ko. Aside from that, may sipon din at slight fever. Doc gave me antibiotics and cough syrup. Took the meds for 1 week and thankfully nawala naman sya right away. I'm ok na rin with taking antibiotics kasi naawa na ko sa tummy ko pag inuubo ako. Grabe ang pressure. Then may microscopic bleeding pa nakita sa urine ko though hindi naman siguro dahil sa ubo kaya determined ako na gumaling yung ubo ko even if it means taking antibiotics.

[au_chic]

@I_am_zayda: Hindi na ko nag-take ng antibiotics sis. We were taught in our OB rotation in med school na hindi na needed yun The cough/colds resolved naman in less than a week after bedrest and lots of fluids


Salabat is great for alleviating nausea rin, as the most recent studies' results say Vitamin B6 50mg (meron sa GNC) showed the best results in research in controlling nausea in the first trimester

Thanks sis au_chic for sharing. Minsan talaga pag may iba ako nararamdaman gusto ko agad tumakbo sa OB.  Hihi

[duhyan]

^ sis ako din. Kaya pag umaalis ako lagi akong naka panty liner. 11 weeks na din ako.

I went to my ob kanina lang and found out I'm 7wks 5days preggy. Mali estimate ko, I thought 6wks pa lang. Nung 5wks preggy ako super feeling masusuka ako pag hatinggabi pero usually hindi naman natutuloy tapos medyo dizzy. Tapos nung 6th wk na wala nang ganun feeling.
Hindi ko alam kung dapat ako maging masaya o worried. Masaya kasi wala ng hilo/feeling nasusuka pero worried kasi baka wala na din baby ko. I had a miscarriage kasi the first time so medyo natrauma na. Tapos ngayon accdg sa ultrasound ko ok naman heartbeat ng baby so happy ako kasi nung first pregnancy ko mahina daw heartbeat. Pero meron daw bleeding so bedrest ako for 1mo. As in literal na nakahiga lang all the time. The only time tumatayo ako is pagpunta cr. Ganun din ba yung iba sa inyo na nagbedrest, literal na nakahiga lang all the time?

[krissy_629]

^Ako  sis nag bleed nung 6 weeks and 3 days pero not active naman nung nagpunta kame sa hospital. So my OB advised me to take duphaston and bed rest for almost 2 months na.

yung bed rest ko is nakahiga lang pag nangalay uupo pero i stand up naman and walk to get food, water and pag may CR.

Depende siguro sis sa condition mo, if there's an active bleeding, totally bed rest with minimal movement. Pero kung hindi naman active, pwede ka naman tumayo tayo pero wag madalas.

Miscarried den last January lang so paranaoid den ako. But thank God August nag plan kame to have a baby again and mabilis lang buntis nako kagad.

Yesterday diagnosed with low lying placenta but my OB said not no worry kase aangat pa naman daw. May go signal nako to resume my normal activities pero hinay hinay lang and no love making muna.

So sis just take a rest, drink your vitamins and prescripted medicine if any. Talk to your baby a lot and just keep on praying. 😊

Hi sisses! Napansin ko lang wala na new thread about this at 30 pages na rin yung previous thread so I created a new one. Eto yung link, btw:

Share naman kayo ng experiences nyo.

I had my first ultrasound yesterday, 6w4d na si baby ko at may heartbeat na. Kaya lang may 3.8 cc na subchorionic hemorrhage na nakita kaya pinapag rest ako ni OB plus 3x a day na duphaston and duvadilan. Hindi ko maiwasang mag worry dahil sa mga nababasa ko, lalo na 4 yrs in the making si baby. Still, I try to be positive kasi ganun naman talaga dapat pag preggy diba?
