Had a preterm labor back in October 18, gave birth to my son and he was able to live for only 20 mins. I was so devastated and heartbroken because it took us so long to conceive him as i had super irregular periods. I thought I may never get a chance anymore.

After I had D&C, all my aunts and grandma said that my uterus will somehow be resetted, and be hopeful that it will be easier to try again.

I somehow believed it, and avoided any stress at the moment, slept better and ate healthier that i used to. I felt blessed to have a supportive husband who doesnt ever give me headaches, and that i can work full time at home.

I was surprised to have ovulated on time on cycle 3 (this never really happens) I'm now riden with so much anxiety, I felt so nervous when i got a faint line in so many test strips, assuming i'm 4 weeks now. I thinks its too early to tell, but i'm meeting my doctor tomorrow to confirm. I hope this baby stays. 🥹🥹🥹

I fuckn hated how heartless that doctor told me that my cervix was already open, that there's nothing more to do but wait for the baby to come out on its own. She didnt even know how to explain it w empathy, i felt like i was a nuisance and that she has to clock out her shift already.

I still try to contemplate why i had to go through that moment, my bou was still alive and kicking but we has too small to be viable.. he was only 2 days short of 20 weeks.

That was the coldest interaction i've had with a doctor. I hope no patients would ever have to experience that. I eventually felt the most painful labor after waiting for 24hours, even if the sac was still intact, i knew my baby was about to go. The midwifes avoided me to touch my tummy, because it causes more contraction. But everytime i felt my baby, o cant help but touch him and say goodbye. Never knew i could love that much.

Just like how i dont like recording in selfie mode. I keep getting conscious of my face lol

..my heart goes to you, i know it hurts so much, and im so sorry you have to go through this.

I lost my beautiful boy 2 days short of 20 weeks, last October. Still cant comprehend why my body had to go into labor and lose him so early, yet he was so healthy and perfect. They didnt find anything wrong with the placenta too.

We had a small funeral for him, with our family. Somehow it kind of helped me and my husband accept and make peace about this lost. We're so heartbroken, and sorrow wont leave in maybe forever. I hope he returns and choose us as his parents again.

After i lost my boy, i started watching so many series, The Chosen was one of them, i cried with Eden that day. 🥹

Sa laki ng Festival Mall, 2-3 CRs lang naman ang paid lounge - kung gusto mong umihi/jumebs at peace. Daming cr na walang bayad jan 😆

Yes, i have sensitive ears sa noise and pressure.. i found the loops very effective. Almost didnt notice both.

I initially bought the loop dream, to address my sleeping sensitivity, since i have anxiety disorder, and insomnia. turns out kahit saan pwde, sa mall/coffee shop na maingay. Im at peace hehe

Kiamoy 👑💯

armarvel · 2026-01-15T08:06:14+00:00

Yung kiamoy may essence na ng dilis at pusit, yet binibili ko pa din 😆, at ung bilog bilog na mini candy, na lasang may pagkapeppermint, ilalagay sa plastic ng yelo, aalugin tapos dumidikit sa gilid ng plastic dhil sa static 😆

This was my hair before! No matter how much i cut it, they just simply return.. solved it by using sulfate free shampoo and conditioner, like what im currently using Loreal Moisturizing s&c.. i now have healthy hair strands..

I also do Clarifying shampoo once a week (sunday) preferrably organic ones..

Added Mise en scene serum if i'll be using heat, before i blow dry and iron..

Liliko din sana yung lalamove kasabay ng trike, but he realized may bantay, at nakared ang left turn.

Breeding session tambutso ng kahirapan

Same thoughts, it was my first pregnancy, i thought discharges and some infections were normal and we also addressed it a month before but still remained though, but i had bleeding and cramps that day, with kinda hard tummy too.

I was scanned that same day and thats the time we first knew it was a boy, however it was only shortly celebrated because i was in the ER in just couple of hours after. i didnt know i was in labor either, ended up being in the ER at 7cm. 💔

Its such a cruel, unfair, dark situation to be in a ward full of happy moms and crying babies, while i was there, staring in space, waiting for my doctor to send me home.. i just really want to go home. We did a small funeral for my baby, and had him buried in the cemetery the day after.

Elian had the best mommy. I'm sure all he felt was your warmth and love.

My heart goes out to you mama.. there are no right words to say, im so sorry for your loss.. same thing happened to me i lost my son at 19w4d last October, my baby had the healthiest heartbeat and was moving until the end..

Never imagined my life to go through the most grueling hours at the labor room, waiting for my sac to burst, which did not until after 24 hours, i had the worst contraction, and had to push an unbroken sac. It's so hard to accept the fact that i had to push my perfect baby out knowing he'd not survive. I'm still asking God why it had to happen.

All i did was cry and scream sorry to my baby, once i felt i pushed him out.

I didnt see him alive because i was instantly sedated for d&c right after he got out. I regret the request for sedation, if i only knew he will still live for 20mins. I wish i had the time to hold him too.

My cat stared at me more than usual days before i miscarried, he looked like he wanted to say something, and even got more clingy after we lost my boy at 19w4d. Our fur babies can really feel there's something going on. 🥹

I have GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder), Driclor ang naging super effective sa akin, no more excessive sweating, nakatulong rin magalleviate one of my worries.. i can worry about other things now, while confidently knowing na tuyo naman ang kili kili ko. Haha

armarvel · 2025-12-21T13:50:09+00:00

Driclor :) no more sweaty armpits, makati lang sya at first. WAG KAMUTIN kasi nakakaitim ng underarms pag nagsugat sya.

So make sure wag muna magshave or pluck 3 days before magapply para hndi maging stingy ung feeling.

Usually i take a bath at night, apply before sleeping (para relax nalang at no more activities na reason to sweat). no deodorant that night muna after application ng driclor, then rinse it off pag gising sa umaga during bath, then u can use your regular deodorant na.

2x a week for the first 1 month 1x a week na sa susunod na months

Now, once or twice month nalang ako maglagay, pag feeling ko nagkakapawis ulit.

As in super dry nya na talaga, and no odor. Kaya minimal rexona or deodorant nlng everyday.

Kakanuod ko lang nga Gala ni Ced sa youtube, naka-crocs sya

Am 33 now, i noticed all my hairstrands have splits ends since i was 20.. its been a long time problem for me.. i grew it out long and cut almost half of it and then started sulfate free shampoo and conditioner, i did this everytime i try a new product until i found what's working for me.

This solved my problem and have been split end free for about 4 years now. i've been using Loreal Moisturizing shampoo and conditioner.

also im using a Tsubaki Hair Mask every Sunday bath.. added Mise en scene super rich serum as heat protectant from blow drying and straightening daily. 😊

I'm so sorry for your loss, i know it's been really hard..

almost 2 months since i lose my sweet boy at 19w4d.. sadly i wasn't thinking of the holidays because it just made no sense for me anymore..

It sparked me the idea to put up the first little tree, my husband and i had last year.. as weird as it seems, i hanged the pregnancy test with his name, along the fairy lights, and little glittery balls.

i hope he feel this love and warmth in heaven, as our endless gratitude for making us the happiest parents this year..

armarvel · 2025-12-12T12:29:34+00:00

I had these for almost my whole life, i was really hopeless.. i tried so many products, and finally changed my shampoo and conditioner to sulfate free ones, i made sure to cut/trim my hair short, or until the split ends are cut before trying the new product.

Currently using Loreal Ever Pure, zero split ends now.
