Babies due on SECOND QUARTER OF 2016 (APRIL, MAY, JUNE)

[coco_cola]

Eklea123,

Yes yung arms reach yung co sleeper and bassinet. I plan to buy arms reach and graco playard. Arms reach in our room and graco playard sa baby's room. Yung graco playard kasi mas mobile, easy to assemble. Pwede ko dalhin sa parents house in case we have to stay overnight.

Alam ko may model ang arms reach na pwede na siya convert to playard as the baby grows.

Hi mommies... 19weeks na ako today! Yey! But wondering still can't feel baby yet... siguro dahil mataba ako and its my first time so i dont know kung yung  mga nararamdaman ko if si baby na or baka muscle lang...  Minsan din nararamdaman ko masakit pusod ko or parang natutusok kinakabahan nga ako minsan eh..

[eklea123]

^ah okay hindi ideal pala sa para sa akin yung arms reach, i'll stick na lang siguro sa cot covertible. Doon sa graco portacot like you are saying baka madaling mabutas if medyo lumaki siya para
minsanan nalang bili and gastos hehe. i'll invest in a recliner chair nalang if breastfeed ko siya then put him sa cot niya. goodluck sa akin heheh. Anyway I already have a pram with bassinet so in case, we go to a friend's house I'll just put him there hehe..

@au_chic, pag gabi na at nakahiga sobra na sya bumubukol sis, masakit.

[au_chic]

^sis pacheckup ka na sa OB, please para sana ma-ultrasound na rin baby mo. Para may maagapan if something went wrong pala. Nasa huli ang pagsisisi

[coco_cola]

I agree sis. Meron kasi tightening talaga starting in the 2nd trimester. It could be due to a lot of reasons. Pero once na may pain na kasama, you need to have it checked out, for peace of my mind.

[cescilay]

Ako din may tightening. Starting from around 18 weeks, seems like everyday na yata ang tightening ng tummy ko. Buti walang pain. My last U/S at 22 weeks, wala namang problema pero I can't help but worry din sometimes. I am planning to ask my OB about this on my next visit this end of the month.

@PINKAHOLIC I suggest din pa check up ka na sis. At 6 months, pregnant women need to have their first dose of tetanus toxoid injection. You need to have one too, if wala ka pa.

Hi sissies, joining again after a long hiatus. I'm on my 20th week already and is expecting a baby girl. EDD is June 5, 2016. First pregnancy and so far, an easy one.

^sis pacheckup ka na sa OB, please para sana ma-ultrasound na rin baby mo. Para may maagapan if something went wrong pala. Nasa huli ang pagsisisi

correct sis @pinkaholic hindi sa tinatakot ka mas natatakot kami for you kasi like you said never kapa natingnan and marami pwede mangyari... worst case we cant think of is if baby still okay lalo ang fetal heartbeat niya. kaya kailangan talaga may nakaalalay din ng overall
kalusugan mo..

i also experience tightening pero seconds lang then if magiba ko pwesto nawawala naman, i'm thinking baka braxton hicks lang? they say it happens every hour though hindi lahat pare pareho yung iba hindi na natin ramdam.. and if there's pain na at matagal contractions na...

[yajale_22]

Ako din may tightening, minsan masakit pero saglit lang naman. Sumasakit din pusod ko minsan pag nagalaw si baby, yung feeling na parang nahihila nya yung cord sa loob. I asked my ob about it and she said na it's normal naman and nothing to worry kase di naman sya connected sa matres ko. 28 weeks na ko, no vaccines since I learned about my pregnancy and I asked her kung kelan ako magpapavaccine kase yung iba I heard they had anti tetanus ang sagot sakin ng ob ko wag na daw ako magpavaccine so I think ok lang naman kase yun ang sabi nya.

Hi mga sis... share ko lang etong news na eto:

"The Senate on Monday approved on third and final reading a bill seeking to increase to 100 days the maternity leave for female employees in the public and private sectors regardless of the mode of delivery." - See more at: http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/story/551723/news/nation/100-day-maternity-leave-gets-senate-ok#sthash.DJ0Hf766.dpuf

sana ma-pirmahan na eto bago tayo mag-file ng ating maternity leave...

[eklea123]

^^ i was told to get flu shots pagkadating ng 25th week pati si hubby then another for whooping cough naman para paglabas ng baby may antibodies na siya for that. i'm not sure sa anti tetanus,i'll ask din if may ganito ba na kailangan.

mga sissies, mag diaper cloth ba kayo or disposable nappy? thanks

[coco_cola]

^Hi Sis,

Planning to use both disposable and cloth. Sabi kasi nila during the first few weeks, madalas ang palitan. So disposable muna during that time. And yung dadalhin ko rin sa hospital, puro disposable.

[cescilay]

Same here! Disposable diapers for maybe the first two weeks. Then cloth diapers na especially if settled na ko sa breastfeeding. Priority ko kasi breastfeeding. And if pagsabayin ko sila, being a first time mom, baka ma stress ako.

[eklea123]

^oo nga eh sabi 9-10x palitan per day, nagiipon nako slowly ng cloth nappies medyo mahal kasi pati inserts pero okay lang mas tipid naman in the long run, di naman ako tamad maglaba hehe. siguro yung sa ospital nalang na gagamitin ang disposable.

[momsypips]

Kakatapos ko lang magprocess ng order ko ng Cloth Diapers online, you might be interested sisses. Naka sale sila, 10pcs for only P2,200 (cloth diaper + 5layer bamboo insert). Mura na siya since mahal din ang per piece ng 5layer bamboo insert. then may free wet bag at free ang shipping fee.

search nyo lang Vezees Closet sa FB. ang cute pa ng mga design nila!

[simang]

When i explained to my husband yung use ng cloth diapers, naintimidate sya sa paglalaba, hehe masyado daw hassle unlike pag disposable. I really want to try cloth diapering pero i have to convince pa my husband.

^sis thanks for sharing the link! Check ko yan.

[Ireneeeeee]

interested din ako sa cloth diapering pero bakit parang ang complicated lol. ang daming cloth diapering lingo.. pero nagbabasa basa na rin ako ngayon. just bought electric breast pump online. unti- unti na rin naghahanda 6months na rin ako lapit na lumabas si baby

later will undergo glucose test kakakaba lol. hope wala akong gestational diabetes.. *crossfingers*

[Miss Granger]

- hopefully nga maging okay na ang 100 days mat leave.

- disposable and cloth diapers, i don't have any pa. Dapat ba nag iipon na ako ng mga gamit? kasi kahit isa wala pa ako, as in waley pa talaga. By 6 months pa sana or later pa kami mamimili ni Hubby. What should be our first step on completing our baby bag? Nag start na din naman ako mag check ng mga baby things, hindi palang bumibili. And also nag checheck din ako ng mga essentials sa tingin ko like medela freeway breast pump, etc.

Thanks mga sis

@i_am_zayda, ang sabi ng friend ko may holding period daw usually ang bagong pinapatupad na law. Mga around 90days daw ata. So in effect para macover siguro ang month ng May onwards na manganganak, dapat mapirmahan na agad yan.
