hi mommies, wow, very tough to follow the msgs... so many of them! catherine, my bb was also born on 28 jul, the cord dropped on monday! I asked the dr and she said it's still moist and to let it dry up by itself, so i guess not very good to use binder leh.

cocomo, thanks!actually my nick was julie (no. 22). delivered at SGH under Dr Tan Hak Koon EDD was 5 Aug, 3rd child, boy thanks valnsw and hisstory! will soon be your turn to see ur little ones!

Thanks celynlee! Want someone to hold my hand also must wait... for him to come back from toilet I think 3rd child liow, uterus must be very irritable... kekeke... but induce contractions with syntocinon is very painful! I didn't have any pain relief, it was very painful and intense...

Hi mommies, Dylan popped on 28 Jul weighing 3.34kg length 50cm! 28 July 9am: saw gynae and scan showed very low amniotic fluid... wondering if Dylan was drinking all those fluid cos the week before dr said was full tank Was also already 3cm dilated. Solution: admit and break water bag...

hi mommies, valnsw, snow74 talk about bout of fatigue, i was in here till 8 plus until i was hit by one... slept until now! feel very unproductive... hisstory, nomally 38 weeks onwards, but if Dr feels that he should do one, he will do it lor. i kena 3 times liow... bcos of my back...

hi celynlee, thanks! will do that! already on ML like u, i think my bb is very comfy inside! i fret at the tot of overdue! will faint! i dun have high hopes that bb will come out early, my first 2 bbs have tendency to come out after 39 weeks... first one even overdue. peng liow lor. now...

valnsw, ya, VE=vaginal examination. Most prob you r first time mommy ya? Dr/midwife inserts his/her fingers to check how dilated is ur cervix, whether bb head is engaged or not. Quite uncomfy but must relax or else will be even more uncomfy. Krex, for me, any MC or HL taken right before...

interrace, ya, then the Dr can tell how high or low ur bb's head is. Normally they do VE after 38 weeks cos there might be a chance that during VE they might disturb the membrane and accidentally rupture it. For my 2nd delivery, dr said bb's head is still very high must wait long long but...

interrace, i didn't know that as well until my gynae told me... i was thinking can induce anytime kekeke... but in order to know bb engaged or not dr must do a VE, can be quite uncomfy! huichin, terrible hor? i am up to the stage where i take 5mins to get up from lying down position...

Hi krex, I think my bb is sitting on one of my nerves... ask my dr and he said no medication, no choice, just rest... i also have history of disc prolapse maybe that's y i am so miserable now... no dr wants to treat a preggy for disc prolapse... i have self declared ML already... told my...

Hi mommies, My nick is actually Julie Did your gynaes tell you that inducing with the bb's head not engaged is dangerous and most probably end up c-sect? Maybe mommies should ask dr if bb's head is engaged or not and ask why the dr wants to induce. I have been having very severe pelvic...

Hi carnellin, It's very sad to see people behave this way ya? I stay in Jurong West and work in Novena... everyday i'll take MRT to and from work. Am 31 weeks pregnant now. I have a huge tummy, i have encountered all kinds of human beings who are temporary blind, suddenly fell into coma but...

Hey celynlee, just to share with you, some ppl have low threshold for sugar/sweet stuff and gets passed out in the urine esp after you eat. I am one of them! I usually go to my Dr early in the morn without eating and result will be ok. If i eat a sweet or drink my morning teh... glucose ++...

hi mommies, i am a nursing bra junkie. Tried and tested many bras...mention 2 and u ladies might want to go try and see for yourself. Emma Jane nursing bras from mums and babes are good, no underwire but no padding, can see nipple!! OIO nursing bras - they got soft wire nursing bras...

Breast pump: Yes, agree with cocomo. I have been TBF my 2 girls for their first yr of life and PBF for their 2nd yr. Medela PIS is very good and heavy duty!! Mine was bought in 2004 and its still working very well! It's very critical to get a good breastpump if you want to succeed in BF and...
