Hi mummies & Ian,
(Wah Ian so special hor)
Was out for an event yesterday morning and then on afternoon leave to spend time my my #1 and hubby yesterday. Din do that much but more of lazing around. Think I walk too much though, had a tiny bit of spotting in the late evening but since its only 1-2 drops kind, I will monitor and see. Next week got check anyway.
Re: BH
Anytime from somewhere in 2nd trimester - 3rd trimester is quite normal. Some people get a lot, some people dun get much. So as long as
1. its not in regular intervals
2. its not painful
3. stretching/relaxing/changing positions can make you feel better
its normal and okay.
Re: Credit Card Scams/Fraud
There are many many many ways for such scams/fraud to take place. Some hack info from websites, some skim your cards, some call to scam you. Anyway, just do not anyhow reveal your credit card details, etc to anyone and if you do online shopping, always ensure that you shop at reputable sites which have the security signs. For me, even when its really the banks calling me (esp those using private numbers), I always tell them that since you are calling me, you would know who I am and there is no need for me to provide you any details for verification, be it card number, date of birth or whatever. If you want me to provide, then inform your operator that I will call back the official line and ask them to transfer the call to you when I call them. I will only verify my identity that way.
ZuEn:
Your baby like my daughter. Move ard but seldom jerk. My husband always say: "#1 is a mouse, so only run here run there, very active. #2 is a tiger, so will bite!"
Teoong:
I have been drinking Essence of Chicken since after 4th/5th month. Drink the plain ones better I feel coz some of the other herbs added ones, some can, some cannot. Not sure so I always take plain ones.
SeaBreeze:
Mine was also 2 hrs. The drink is super sweet coz its glucose.
Metta:
For #1, I only used organic stuff for the first few 2-3 months. After that use Johnsons. My rational is that first few months, skin very sensitive and thin so use organic good stuff. Its too ex to continue all the way and I also want my gal to get used to "normal" stuff so after the first few months, change to "normal" kind. Most importantly is whether your baby got any allergy to any of the brands. Coz whether its organic or not, some babies cannot take certain brands.
Groovy:
My situation is similar to yours. My parents know that either my sis or I am confirmed allergic to Asprin but cannot remember which one so we both always write. Many docs have suspected its not me coz I can take Ponstan.
Re: Cheque Book
I am using UOB for my cheque book - $10 per book coz I still find it more convenient than my Citibank (so the Citibank Cheque book is untouched). OCBC got free cheque book ah? Most banks have min amount before they deduct monthly fees.
Re: Wax
Nurses will shave you before C-sec. If you are waxed, I think it saves them the trouble and its neater. If you are natural, no need to shave or wax. Remember not to do wax till very near delivery – preferably after full term (37 weeks) as the pain may lead to labour.
Later I switched to Pureen. In fact now at 5 years old, my boy is still using pureen shampoo.
