Am now 34 weeks, gynae said baby a gd weight of 2+ kg. but still in breech. If he's still breech 2 weeks later, have to schedule for C-section ard 38 wks- not ideal at all. Initially felt a bit sad/ disappointed, but as long as the baby's ok, then what does a little discomfort/ longer healing process matter, right?
On Sun, my CL told me she's going back to M'sia. Initially when we paid her a $200 deposit (in Sep) she said her earlier contract would end early Jan then she'll hang ard in JB for me to give birth, tend to me for awhile- before going back for CNY prep. But now her earlier contract ended yesterday, and she's going back to M'sia!!! And she cited that bus tickets were difficult to obtain, no point for her to tend to me unless i give birth early Jan, blah blah blah-was mega irritated by the turn of events! Otherwise she will be back to tend to me on 15th Feb! My EDD is 30th Jan!
Early Jan I will be 36 weeks so even if give birth, baby will be preemie, not something i would wish for... and if she comes when the baby is already 3-5 weeks old what's the point?
Any advice to give? Should I wait till almost delivery more firm to cancel? How abotut the deposit? My gynae said even if i'm natural he would wait 1-2 days after my Due date to induce so no matter what CL coming on 15th Feb quite pointless as she's not here to tend to me during the first 2 weeks...

Cookiefleur,
Haha, same date as YOU!!! Which hospital are u with?
Kimmyk,
Think your baby should be out by now, 3+pm. Unless Sherill beat you to be the 1st via natural delivery?! How's everything???
Sherill,
Take care, you are very brave to not want epidural, do tell us your birth story when you are feeling better!
Daphne,
Happy birthday to you, indulge & enjoy!
Bunny,
You still around? If I remember correctly, you are Csec-ing on Christmas Day right?

Really tiring for me to monitor the maid and give her instructions on things to do, worse is hubby dun seem to care n i feel so tired doing everything!! yesterday even quarrelled with hubby and i cried n cant sleep after that. I asked him what have he done so far for me and baby, he said he veri nice already, accompany me to buy baby stuff! I cant believe it!!
Sorry feel so much frustration, came here to vent think i will fall into depression if i dun control it well ;(

All hubby seemed to care abt is surf internet, download games and applications for his phone. while I busy reading books in preparation for baby and surfing forums for advice on baby preparation stuff and maid issues. Hubby seemed so relaxed while i need to plan for grocery marketing and next week's dinner meals for maid to cook. All he do is ask what's for dinner. When he go grocery shopping with me, face always black black and dun like to carry heavy stuff. To make it easier for him, i say i help him carry some he also not happy!
Really upset with him, plus i really getting more n more tired recently and more forgetful and he doesnt seem to be helping me much. I still need to plan and remind him to pay bills and stuff like that, i really cant take it any longer.

Littlepigpg,
Cheer up, men and women are never equal cuz men have no EQ. Like what chabby said, take a day off for yourself, go cut hair, do a mani/pedi and relax. When you feel better, sit down and have a talk with him and let him know what you have been doing for the family all these while and that you are not superwoman, esp with a baby on the way.
Cheer up, think positive and things will get better! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

congrats to Sherill and Kimmy......
Came in, couldn't sleep. Baby turning/moving alot. Now in week 35 with baby weight 2.4kg.
Counting down to D-date. Lots of pain at the V-area and when walking after sitting down for some time.
Especially, when turning towards left or right side when sleeping on the bed... Anyone experiencing this n what do u do to relieve the pain?
