By the way, ann, did you have all those laboratory tests done such as rubella, blood grouping, blood count, syphillis, hiv, thallasemia etc?? The midwife asked me if im willing to undergo these tests and she said its entirely up to me. But i find the other tests unnecessary really....
As you said you want the best for your unborn baby and ofcourse yourself... so there's no harm of taking these tests, they're free and also would help for both of you and your unborn baby.Originally Posted by filipina_owl

When I was pregnant i didn't take any vitamins at all I just ate healthy foods or anything that my midwife/gp prescribed me to take...but it's up to you pregnacare is no harm.
As Ann said trust your midwife/gp tell them all your worries

hello ann07, that is a whopperyes my love took all that test even if they didnt asked me to do it i said yes and yes after i read the leaflets
yup filipina_owl there is a massive difference, and it's normal to feel a bit worried about it. had 2 kids here and they are all fine. i myself got worried at first because no vitamins whatsoever was prescribed as well and yet my 2 wee boys are healthy and fine.
gp's will be only in the picture if there is any complications during your pregnancy. and looks like you are well fit and doing really well. just enjoy your pregnancy and try not to worry, save your strength as you will need it to do all the pushing when little one decides to say hello to the world.

Very well said ladyJ, ann and aphrodite... I will have those tests done then, thank you so much for the nice words. At least now i have peace of mind, im really excited for our first baby boy.
I know eating healthy is eating fruits, vegetables, lean meats etc. But do you guys still eat rice like in pinas? Im a rice eater but people here doesnt eat rice at all.I find it strange but trying to get over it. Or perhaps, you have been infulenced by your husbands? Like eating cereals for breakfast, bread, potaotoes, chips etc. Ohhh i find it difficult so i just cook my own food or i and my unborn baby will be starving...
My husband said eating rice all the time is not healthy?
I wonder if some pinays here still eat rice 3 time a day and cook filipino dishes like me?s

I was like that with my first boy i cant eat their foods here. With my second baby its different i always asked for fish and chips
Now we always have rice every other day or sometimes daily my husband loves rice now esp fried rice ( i have him converted)
Thats good always eats healthy foods esp veggies and fish good for the baby and mummyand plenty of liquids ( Oh i hate it during the last trimester esp in the middle of the night the loo became my bestfriend
Goodluck to you dear im sure your baby is healthy

"eating rice all the time is not healthy" sorry but I dont believe on what your husband said. Rice contains very high quality of proteins, although you should not just eat rice all the time, why not try green leaf salad, pasta, sardines, oily fish like tuna or smoked fish (but dont eat too much) etc. (browse online for more healthy foods for pregnancy) and also it's the best way to eat little but often or just follow your gut feelingsVery well said ladyJ, ann and aphrodite...
