thinking of cutting hair till shoulder-length.. not too long/short, coz still want to tie it up.. it will be worse if hair covers the neck.. so hot!..
Yup, the baby "waist-band" is only for initial weeks until the thing drops off... I dunno wat is tat called... but my MIL says must be very careful, and not get the belly button infected....

Men want to contribute and show that they are not bimbotic fathers to be!
yet, when you ask them to read up about pregnancy and babycare, they say that's the mother's job! hehehe....well, at least that's what my man said.
if you have nice textured/thin hair, short hair is cooler if you have a good crop. if you have thick, dense and natural curls, short hair may trap even more heat! best to tie up. I should have done rebonding in Dec! Now my grown-out hair is sooooo untamed and wiry! soooo hot!

Hi Anissa,

Hi Aidanee,
My belly button also haven't protrude out yet, its kinda flat/even now heh ..actually, hoping it won't protrude out, quite ugly leh, if wearing tight top... i heard if your belly button was quite deep in before preg, it won't really protrude out cause got a lot of 'space' to expand

seabreeze, please take care. did u slip on wet ground? u wearing shoes with good friction? if not, another excuse to buy new pretty shoes! m glad that u're okay, take care. m trying to do everything in slow-motion these days. oso wearing aunty scholl slippers on casual days because i'm very prone to falls...
Hi Mummytobe
i am not so worried abt the protruding belly button, as i always tot it WILL protrude out during pregnancy. so now, if got choice, pray it will not protrude out!
Christina,
yah, i will be delivering at Mt E. Din attend the session. How was it? Was it informative? BTW< do they have the maternity package? Are you getting a single bedder?
Seabreeze,
How are you feeling now? remember to highlight to your gynae at your next visit about the fall. dun take any chance. my sis said we tend to get clumsier as our tummy grows bigger....so gals, please watch your step, okie? Also, check that you are wearing a good pair of non-slip shoes.
Anissa,
Watermelon and grass jelly are very cooling....but if taken moderately, should be ok. Dun worry about what has been done...if so far, you feel ok, then, should be ok. Just remember to take more "bu" stuff.
Some say cannot take papaya too...that's my fav...i only took 2 slices since i got pregnant cos cannot resist.
Gals, do all you take cold drinks? Anyone care to share about my "tummy tightening" encounter? IS that normal? Thanks!!

aidanee, y cant we take papaya? i've been eating quite a bit, just had 4 slices yesterday! i do take cold drinks, an occasional sip of iced lemon tea, green tea and cola from my hubby's share.
The turnout for last sat's session was quite good, a lot of expats. 2 docs gave talks on parental role in bringing up bb and stem cord banking. then some nurses gave talks on the painkillers available during delivery. i'm taking the single bedder. the double bedder is very very small...beds are probably 2 arm lengths apart... aint sure about the package though...

the last time i knocked against something, and my knee was badly bruised. Anyway, i bruise very very very easily since young. when gynae saw that, he ordered a placlet function test for me to ensure that my blood is ok cos he is worried that during delivery, i will bruise very badly and/or have any internal bleeding....so scary hor...anyway, he is just being very KS. ... luckily all is well. Haemotologist said i have very sensitve and fragile capillaries below the skin.

Seabreeze,
u ok????? Huggies...be careful yeah, today raining day, if your shoes are slippery type, better change it fast. Don't worry, baby will be alright, its well-protected by the water bag
If u have any discomfort, call your gynae later.
Vone,
thanks for your concern
yes, reallly cannot sleep last nite, you too? hehehee...me having panda eyes too...and today there's so much work to do! my eyes are also getting abit blur.
Girls,
its better not to drink grass jelly, i think watermelon not so bad. I took barley water or ju hua chai too, especially weather really heaty. I still stick to my fave Orange juice.

Hi Cat_tail,
no lah, not my tummy flat, but my belly button flat ie. level with my tummy now, so now no hole, but not protruding yet. Me 25/26 weeks now.
Hi Aidanee,
Me also got tummy tightening experience. So far three or four times already. Stomach and the muscles there will suddely tighten and harden, then when i press, like rock..lasts for about 1 to 2 minutes..i heard its braxton hicks contractions also..will ask my gynae during next visit.
actually i don't really understand the logic of not drinking cold/refrigerated drinks leh..by the time the drink reaches your tummy, already hot liao, or at least body temperature liao right?

Christina,

cos my hubby lah...when i want to take some coke from him, he said cannot! when i want to eat papaya, he said dr said cannot! During my initial months, i saw another gynae at Glen E, he said no papaya, pineapple and watermelon cos can cause m/c.... so when i went to see De chew at Mt E, i asked him....he said cannot take jackfruit (cause contraction), and pineapple...Indians believe that some enzymes in papaya will cause contraction too, so he said that is just a belief, but to be safe, avoid! But i guess after the 1st tri, it's ok lah...eat moderately lor....excessive intake also no good. hehehe, wait till my hubby comes back next week, and i will make him buy ice-cream and coke!!
Chrisina, i am quite keen on the stemcord banking..do we go to the stemcord to register or just inform our gynae?

mummytobe,
i have experience braxton hicks since weeks back, i felt a strong pull and mucles just harden. But it goes off in 2 mins....esp. if i try to shift to side...is it normal??? though i heard only late stage of pregnancy then we experience that. But it happens to me quite regular, though the timing are far apart.

hi reenie, same here, my fridge is like a mini fruitstall these days. aidanee, guess what? i had some jackfruit yesterday too! guess ignorance is bliss sometimes? i din know it can cause contraction. my gynae is quite "ang moh", he gave me the go-ahead for all fruits.
hubby is also very interested in stem cord banking. we'll probably sign up and store the stem cord cells for a few yrs. i think u've to sign up with Stemcord Pte Ltd, then inform ur doctor cuz he has to be the one to draw out the stem cord cells from bb's umbilical cord.

Coconut to be taken only arnd week 34 - 36 weeks onwards to cool down our body, so when bb is born, won't hv rashes and will most prob clear them of cradle caps. Cradle caps are those small flaky skin-like thingy on their heads and/or face.
Watermelon is.. like what Seabreeze says, HEATY and not cooling. TT's y, when u eat watermelon, do eat some of the white flesh (cooling) as well.. to balance up the heatiness. How I know all these,.. well, mil and hb in fruits trade.

lib,
Looks like we are two very notti mummies-to-be here cos I have been drinking coke, pepsi, root beer and all the fruits that other mummies-to-be here advised against ...
As a matter of fact, I use scissors and do sewing on the bed during initial stage of pregnancy. Was worried for a couple of mths and last mth went for the detailed scan and gynae said no cleft lips shown. *PHEW* Else I sure feel guilty for the rest of my life!
As for protruding belly button, I was just talking abt it to my hubby last night and this morning the thread is discussing it! Hahaha ... anyway, my belly button already starts to protrude
Looks ugly. Can't agree more.
