đ¨ âLEFT polycystic o***yâ does NOT automatically mean your right o***y is living its best, innocent life đ
This is where so many women get confused.
PMOS (formerly PCOS) is a syndromeâwhich means we diagnose it using the Rotterdam criteria, not just one ultrasound finding.
â
Irregular periods
â
Signs of higher androgen hormones (acne, facial hair, hair thinning)
â
Polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM)
You only need 2 out of 3.
Meaning?
đ One o***y can look polycystic
đ Both ovaries can look polycystic
đ OR your ultrasound can look completely normal
âŚand PMOS may STILL be the diagnosis.
Your ultrasound is ONE piece of the puzzleânot the whole story đ
Be honest đ
Did your ultrasound confuse you more than it explained things?
PCOS has a new name⌠and honestly? It makes more sense. đ
For YEARS, women thought:
â âMy ultrasound is normal, so I donât have PCOS.â
But PCOS was never just about ovaries.
Let me explain what this meansâand why your diagnosis may not be what you think đ
â16 weeks⌠pero wala pa akong nararamdaman na galaw đ°â
Take a breathâthis is completely normal.
Most moms (especially first-time moms) feel baby move at around 18â20 weeks.
At 16 weeks, your baby is still very small, and the movements are too light to notice.
đ Sometimes, it also depends on:
⨠if itâs your first pregnancy
⨠your placenta position (anterior placenta can âcushionâ movement)
⨠how sensitive you are to subtle changes
No movement at 16 weeks doesnât mean anything is wrong.
Your baby is movingâyou just canât feel it yet đ
If youâve reached 20+ weeks and still feel nothing, or something feels offâthen check with your OB for peace of mind.
Youâre not behind. Your timeline is still normal â¨
Cold water is not the enemy đ
Your Tita says that drinking cold water will make your baby huge đśâď¸ Itâs the calories in sugary cold drinksânot the temperatureâthat matter. Letâs stop the pregnancy myths đ â
Weight gain in women is not always a matter of discipline.
Hormonal factors such as PCOS, insulin resistance, stress, and thyroid disorders can significantly affect metabolism and fat storage.
đ If your body feels like itâs working against you, it may be time to look deeper.
Early evaluation leads to better management.
Letâs figure it out together.

âMoments of pure joy.â đ¤
In our culture, we often joke that the older child wonât be loved as much when a new baby comes alongâthis has to stop. Because the truth isâlove doesnât get divided, it multiplies.
Remind your children that they will always be loved đĽ°
And soon, someone little will look up to them for guidance, protection, and love.
They are not being replacedâ
they are being chosen to be someoneâs first hero, first guide, and first best friend, holding a love that only grows, never divides. đ
