A okay

Hello there! It's been a tiring day for me. It's been 1 month and 18 days since i gave birth to my 4th child. I was cesarean. I am okay now. I've been doing household chores lately. My wound is already healed. Btw, i'm applying contractubex on the scar so it won't get any keloids. I used that also when i gave birth to my 3rd child and it worked 👍🏻. So hooray for contractubex! Say goodbye to keloids! 😂

I still have the the end of my suture though, the others had melted but except that. The one below my navel. Well i don't feel any pain. I called my OB but he wasn't there so his assistant told me not to touch it and i should just wait for it to melt, coz it will. So i listened to her and didn't bother calling back again to ask My OB.

Stazie Mavic was born

I went to the hospital last May 7, 2016. I was scheduled for CS on May 8, 2016. Yes i went early to the hospital so i can relax there. Finally, i gave birth to a healthy baby girl last May 8, 2016 at Salve Regina Hospital. My OB said i lost a lotta blood so i took 3 kinds of vitamins for iron. It was so painful, thank God for painkillers. I stayed at the hospital for 5 1/2 days. I was cesarean with my 3rd child so i was also cesarean with my 4th child. My recovery with my 3rd child was fast but now i can say that i am still in a recovery stage. I had an infection that's why so i took cloxacillin. By the way, i gave birth to my 2nd, 3rd and 4th at the same hospital. I just feel so comfortable and at home at Salve Regina. The nurses were so nice to me and they made sure that i got everything i needed and they're very good at taking care of their patients. My OB since my 1st child is of course so good at his job and very kind as well that's why i stayed with him. I didn't even bother to look for another OB. As for my newborn's Pediatrician, She is also the Pediatrician of my 3 kids. Oh and by the way... my OB and Pediatrician are husband and wife.

I am now into breast feeding. When i was pregnant, my breasts weren't sore so i knew then that i won't have any milk or there's going to have milk but it won't last just like what happened with my 3 kids. I had milk but it stopped after a week. But now to my surprise, i still have milk. Lucky me. I'm drinking natalac 3 times a day for lactation. I wanna make sure this time that i won't run out of breast milk. So thank God for the liquid gold. I am so blessed.

Feeling Excited

So i had my check up again yesterday and the doctor said that me and baby Stazie are fine. I have to continue my vitamins. I will go back on May 4 for my last check up. Then on May 8, i will have my caesarean section. Yey! Finally! 17 more days to go and we're gonna see baby Stazie!

I'm having pain all over my body. But it's all worth it! This is the most difficult pregnancy i've ever had but as i've said, it's really okay. As long as baby Stazie is healthy and fine.

A Okay

I had my ultrasound and check up yesterday. It was all good though baby Stazie is suhi. It's okay coz i'm CS anyways.

I am going back on April 20 for my follow up check up. My check up now is every 2 weeks. I'm not taking duvadilan anymore. I searched in google that duvadilan makes the baby's heart beat stop. Dunno if it's real or not but just to make sure, i just had to stop. Since i am all okay now and i'm not feeling any discomfort and most especially i'm not into premature labor stage i guess it's okay if i'm gonna stop taking it. As long as i am well rested, Me and my baby will be okay.

I am scheduled to deliver the baby on May 8, 2016. My family will be having an overnight in a private resort in boso boso and i asked my OB if i could come. The outing would be on May 7, 2016. He didn't allow me. He said that i should rest and be ready for my operation. Feeling kinda sad :( but hey! I have to think the better side. I'm gonna give birth soon. It feels like, it's always the  first time. We're gonna see baby Stazie real soon. We're all excited!

1 month and 4 days to go

Okay, so i haven't blogged for 5 months. I've been feeling lazy since i got pregnant with my 4th child. I really dunno why. I wasn't like this before.
I just wanna share what happened to me this past few months.

Okay. So first , i had premature labor last February. I thought baby Stazie's gonna come out early. Good thing she didn't. Coz it's difficult for a premature baby to survive and it will take her 1 month or so in the incubator for her to be fully developed. I am taking duvadilan to stop the early labor. I am planning on giving birth on May 8, 2016. My 40th week is on May 20, 2016 according to my ultrasound. Just to make sure, i have to take another ultrasound this April 6 before i go to my OB. So i surpassed the premature labor, thank God! God is really good.

Second, i had a baby shower last Saturday. I celebrated it with my family and relatives. I really had so much fun. Though the chocolate fountain was an epic fail coz it didn't work!  But it was all okay.
