POSTPARTUM HIVES

POSTPARTUM HIVES

This started around 10 days pp. I'm currently 18 days pp. Nung una akala ko kinagat lang ako ng lamok pero hindi pala. I already asked my OB about this sabi niya baka contact dermatitis na daw to but I doubt it. Will have my derma check-up na din this weekend.

Anyone who had the same experience? How did you manage? Grabe it's so itchy. For context I gave birth via unmedicated water birth so no epidural for me and completely drug-free. Pakaalam ko kasi isang side effect ng epidural ang hives kaso I didn't get the epidural naman so idek 😭

TODAY IS MY DUE DATE (SEPT 19)

Hello VBAC moms! I just wanted to ask for higher success rate for me. Today is my due date (40 weeks). OB said we can wait until 41 weeks pero mejo nag woworry na ako na baka maka poop si baby sa loob? As per my latest BPS last Sunday at 39 weeks and 1 day pregnant, baby girl is perfectly fine naman but measuring on the 85th percentile. Lol! OB is not concerned about the baby's weight naman and assured me na kayang kaya ko naman daw i-VBAC si baby.

Now bigla ako napa isip. Inofferan kasi ako ng induction/augmentation for this coming week, any day I want daw basta before 41w. Low dose oxytocin to be exact. Another concern ko—magiging successful parin kaya with low dose oxytocin? Diba nakaka decrease ng success rate for VBAC yun tapos tumataas ang risk for uterine rupture if hindi talaga inantay ang spontaneous labor. Though di naman ako prinepressure ng OB ko na yun ang gawin namin. What do you think ang maganda ko gawin? Anyone who successfully had their VBAC parin ba na similar sakin ang situation?

For context I'm a good candidate naman. 9 yrs gap, LTCS for NRFHR, CS scar measuring good and thick, no health issues and complications, low risk pregnancy, good amniotic fluid pa, etc.

I'm also 3cm dilated na as per my OB last Wednesday, Sept 16 (39+4). I've also been losing my mucus plug na for the past few days. Kulang nalang talaga is strong/painful contractions para mag tuloy tuloy eh.

CAS RESULT VIA HELLOBABY

Hello mommies! My baby's congenital anomaly scan turned out to be okay except for a small issue on her right kidney. It says "URINARY TRACT DILATATION (UTD) A1: LOW RISK" or in other term, dilated yung right kidney niya.

CAS at 25 weeks and 4 days. Musta baby niyo na may same result? Na resolve naman daw on its own? Actually pangalawang CAS ko na to. First was around 19 weeks and 5 days. Wala pa naman nakita that time. Buti inulit namin.

Currently 28 weeks na.

SLMC BGC + NSD PACKAGE

Hello mommies na nanganak recently! Mas sulit ba mag NSD package + addtl waterbirth suite OR regular price (not package) + addtl waterbirth suite?

I'm a PWD kasi so iniisip ko baka mas mura regular price minus PWD discount. Hehe.

For context: I'm a second time mom and I'm aiming for a waterbirth VBAC. A suki of SLMC BGC 🤭
