		<description>just a few more weeks toni! woot! :D

err... after the delivery, it will feel like you have had your back and pelvis run over by a compactor, and it will seem impossible for one to be able to sit up again :P but sa start lang yun, it will feel better when you have started to walk na a bit. 

the thing that&#039;ll also be painful after is the flower and the part they sew. maybe for a week or two. the hot lamp helped a lot. pero walking made it very sore in my case because it was scratching on the maternity napkin i was wearing. i just kept thinking.. this too shall pass!!! lol!



&lt;blockquote&gt;Thanks for sharing those stories with me!!! They really help me manage my expectations post-delivery! :)&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>Toni: my nursing cover (I have more than one actually) doesn&#039;t have a pillow but I have a separate nursing pillow (Boppy) that was really useful when Rafa was newborn kasi nakakangawit magbreastfeed at that age (since they feed for so long and so frequently!).  It isn&#039;t super-necessary to have a breastfeeding pillow though because you can actually use any pillow.  :)

&lt;blockquote&gt;Thanks Rowie! :)&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>soo true! the negativity doesn&#039;t strike me every day, but it sure can cripple. good thing we have great family and friends we can turn to when we get the blues :)

&lt;abbr&gt;&lt;em&gt;lady cesss last blog post..&lt;a href=&quot;http://one-twentyone.com/2009/07/01/life-is-like-this-watermelon/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Life Is Like This Watermelon&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/abbr&gt;&lt;/em&gt;


&lt;blockquote&gt;
Yup, while positivity ultimately comes from within ourselves, it helps when you&#039;re surrounded by loved ones who totally support you too!&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>Hey girl, 

Soon it will be okay. You&#039;re lucky that you only get up 3-4 times a night. I had to get up every 15 minutes. I timed it. It was very depressing. 

Cheer up. There will be more down days after giving birth but you need to remember the good parts, and only the good parts to help you through. 

You can do it! Smile.

&lt;blockquote&gt;15 times? Okay I will count my blessings. :) Thanks for the encouragement!&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>Before I begin, can I just share that my keycode is &quot;child&quot;?  La lang, aliw :)

First of all I want to advice you to relax and delegate.  It&#039;s very important that you are not stressed or else you might go into preterm labor.  Look what happened to me!  Delegate the non-essentials.  I know it&#039;s hard, I&#039;m a perfectionist too.  But once the baby comes, you will really need all your energy.  We are lucky because we both have partners who are behind us 100% percent, sharing every moment of this experience.  I&#039;m very thankful that my husband is very hands-on.  We share all the responsibilities, from feeding, changing, burping, etc.  

And don&#039;t worry about the feeling-ugly stage.  I went through that too.  You&#039;ll forget about that once you meet your little one.  Parenthood can be overwhelming at first but every second is worth it :)

&lt;blockquote&gt;Thank you Eper! This really helps a lot. *hugs*&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>hi toni! i feel excited na rin with Timmy. one month na lang!!! i&#039;m almost 3 months preggy and i could almost feel na gagawin kong reference ang blog mo every now and then. i am having difficulty with my first trimester, esp with the mood swings and nausea. but it&#039;s all worth it kasi excited na rin kami ng hubby ko. anyways, i hope everything will go smoothly until your little Timmy comes out. God bless!
