Jia you!! Seeing your darling soon!!

The doc at Polyclinic said below 100 will be safe level. Above 300 needs to go hospital. My boy is at 18D, jaundice level checked today is 116. He is drinking breast milk exclusively so doc said breast fed baby normally takeslonger to clear the jaundice. But as long as the level is below 300...

When my bb discharged from KKH, they gave me a letter to follow for the jaundice level at Polyclinic. They gave priority queue no for babies born less than 1 month. 1st visit, went to a nurse room where they take bb weight & length. The nurse also asked abt the vaccination whether I would like...

I was induced 2 weeks earlier becoz bb is getting too big. From my 1st pill to dilation to abt 9cm, I took more than 36 hrs, still cannot dilate to 10cm. In the end, emergency c-sect. And my bb also has not engaged during the wait so when they attempted to break my water bag, they need to reach...

Dont worry too much.. Just be consistent and diligent in latching bb on every 3 hours. After that use the pump to stimulate, 5 min each side for 3 cycles, If no milk or low milk also nevermind.. Main thing is to stimulate the breast so that it will increase the supply I have been following the...

My boy has the same issue... The doc at polyclinic said it is sometimes due to nose block. He checked my boy's breathing and said the lungs are clear so nothing to worry about. Prescribe saline drop for the blocked nose.

It is actually not so tiring if u do not have milk to express after latching on.. My bb spent about 30min - 45min on latch (including struggling time) and then after that my breast still feel very full so I have to spend another 30min to express out the milk.. Time seems to pass by so fast...

I also think maybe is the way you hold him that he doesn't feel comfortable. Just play around with different holding method.. Initially, my boy also keep on crying and pushing me away when I tried to hold him to breast feed.. But after many tries and adjusting holding methods, now he latches on...

@Pochacco123 Glad that you and baby are doing well... :) Which hospital are u at? Btw, I agree that laughing gas is no use... Hahaha

They insert the 1st pill for induction at about 3pm. After observing for abt 2 hours, they sent me up to the suite to wait... So I was still able to eat and drink then.. They only sent me down to labor ward at abt 6am becoz labor ward no space and becoz I only dilated 3cm. But from 6am on 8/8...

Hello everyone! I was admitted on 7/8 for induced labor becoz Gynae estimated bb too heavy at 3.8kg at 38 weeks. After more than 36 hours of induce, I only managed dilation of 9cm. In the end, Gynae said cannot wait anymore and not worth it for me to start pushing at 9cm. End up C-sect on 9 Aug...

Printed on report is 3.8kg.. It stated there will be +/- 12% I almost fainted when I was told of his weight..

Went for detailed scan today... I am at 38wk + 3, estimated bb's weight is 3.8kg.. *faint* My gynae scare bb gets too big for natural delivery if continue to wait.. No dilation or signs of labor yet... I am going to be admitted to induce labour tomorrow. Hopefully everything goes smoothly and...

Just saw my gynae yesterday, and he told me my baby is a bit on the big side. Estimated about 3.1kg - now I am into my 37w1d.. My last scan was 3 weeks ago and baby is 2kg.. He gained about 1kg in 3 weeks!! Now I am a bit worried that he gets too big for natural birth since I have another 3...

My mom said that's how she felt when she was about to go into labor.. I myself haven't feel that yet.. I starting my 37 week.
