Hi mga mommy question lang regarding Philhealth. EDD ko is March 1. Pero nd na ako nakapasok ng work since August. Ngayon ang Philhealth ko walang hulog ng September 2020, December 2020 at January 2021. Pwede ko ba syang hulugan voluntarily para magamit ko siya? Or kahit hindi ko na hulugan still qualified since 3 months lang sya walang hulog. Thank you sa mga makakasagot. #philhealthbenefits #momcommunity

Hi mommies I'm 15 weeks pregnant and I'm a bit curious and worried ang dami ko kasing nakikitang post about loosing their babies heartbeat around 15 to 20 weeks of pregnancy. Inexplain po ba sainyo ng OB nyo kung ano po ang cause? And ano po symptoms na naramdaman nyo?

I saw this post in Smart Parenting. Posted by Jazer Basan in October 2019. Just sharing it here for those mommies who has questions about Maternity Package. Again this was posted in October 2019 so there might be a bit changes. Rates given are for single pregnancy with no complications, cover essential services, and do not reflect extras and upgrades. Every pregnancy is unique, so having a good relationship with your doctor throughout your pregnancy until your childbirth is essential. Your doctor will not only monitor your health during this crucial time, he/she can also determine your needs and adjust your maternity package expenses, according to what you have discussed.

Hi mommies. Question normal pa ba sa buntis yung pag susuka ng 4 to 7 times a day? I'm worried kasi na baka madehydrate na ako. Also since kada kain ko nailalabas ko din bumaba yung timbang ko from 59kg to 56kg and lagi na din akong parang nanghihina since parang halos wala na akong na kakain ng maayos. I'm 8 weeks pregnant. Any mommies here with the same situation?

Hello mga mommies. I'm 7 weeks pregnant. Walang gana kumain and lagi pang constipated. Everytime na kakain din ako isusuka ko lang. Niresetahan ako ng OB ko ng Anti Acid for 7 days. Anyone here with the same situation? And ano usually kinakain nyo to atleast ease the constipation.
