Birth Story: Teacher Jeanar

Whatta Pedia!

Jeanar was insulin dependent all throughout her pregnancy. It was a risky gestation period but she managed to have a normal vaginal delivery, though baby Blue came out at 33 weeks only. Because of her diabetes, her OB suggested that she get a pediatrician ASAP as her baby is also at risk. So she went to see a well-known pedia in Iloilo City. She was shocked when the doctor asked her frankly, "What's your job and your husband's job? Can you afford me?" She was only 24 years-old that time, so she and her husband didn't have a stable job just yet. In the end, Blue stayed at the hospital for 21 days, but they were able to pay the pedia with the help of family members. Blue is now a healthy 8 year-old boy.
