OB Appointment #4 was different. Aside from we decided to change OB, we also changed the venue. Instead of the usual Asian Hospital, we opted to go to New Sinai Medical for the check up. Our reasons, it is nearer our future home and it is also cheaper giving birth here (I hope).

We went for check-up a little late already. We left the house at 4:00pm and was at the hospital by 4:30. Since it was already 'late' for us, we didn't expect that there was still an OB available. We were directed to go to room 307 to meet Dr. Alma Joy B. Morin.

Doc Alma is still young (she's only 33) and an Infertility Specialist as well (just like Doc Ces). She was accommodating and friendly. Madaling makapalagayan ng loob. What G likes about her, is that she includes him with sa discussions. She uses layman's term which is really easier to understand. She took my history and other medical background. I also showed her the results of my previous lab tests (which she said are okay, for now). As part of the routine check-ups for new OBs, she required to do an IE on me.

During our discussions, I asked her if she can give us an estimate on how much should we prepare for the delivery. She gave an amount ranging from P30k to P80k depending on the complexity of the situations on delivery. (At least now, we know how much more we should save). In the end, she recommended that I change my Vitamin C into Calvit and added another food supplement. So far, everything went well.

We are expected to go back on the 9th of September. Other lab tests will be scheduled around my 6th month pa, together with the ultrasound for baby Gwenks' gender identification.

ps...
doc alma computed baby Gwenks' age base on my LMP. This means that baby G is already on his/her 17th week now.
