Didy what a small world! Somehow got a hunch it's u! Hehe yes her stitches r good! I hope it'll be the same this time round! Coz it's the first step to fast recovery!
Hehe so exciting! Always a mummy popping every day! Jiayou!!! I'm also v v tired actually carrying the weight ard but I know it'll be tougher aft delivery! So trying to "enjoy" or rather finish running all errands but somehow it always seemed incomplete!! Trying to pack my hospital bag and I realised I have alr discarded all my nursing PJs!!! Omg! Mad rush today trying to get the stuff ready.
I used both earth mama angel butter and lansinoh. Lansinoh v good for healing broken skin, eg over pump or "raw" and sore nipples. Apply aft pump. The earth mama one is like butter!! I use it like a lubricant! Lubricate bef pumping. I suffered from super super sore nipple whr the skin ring ard the aerola was "torn" off from over pumping. So v KS!!

36.5W now. Water retention became quite bad. How do you ladies deal with it?
I sit with feet up, used cabbage wraps, soak myself in the pool for an hour every 3-4 days.. Eat bananas, drink lots of water, but after walking 10 mins, I just want to surrender. Now my knee also hurts a lot when I walk!

The est. weight as of 37 wk is 3.2 kg. .. as I'm small size 1.5m, so it's consider big baby for me. I think most cases the weight are over estimated.

Don't walk too much try to rest on bed more with feet lift up. Ensure you have at least 8hr of rest time on bed each day. I began to wear memory foam sport shoes to work at week 32 plus lol...walking is really painful with big belly36.5W now. Water retention became quite bad. How do you ladies deal with it?

hmm.. try lie on ur back with ur legs up the wall for abt 10-15mins every night.. also maybe change a more comfy pair of shoes? highly recommend fitflops. I wear my working shoes only when I have to, else I'll wear my fitflop/ barefoot (even in office) most of the time.

What is nipple sandwich technique?
kopibeanie
Well-Known Member
compress ur areola so that it looks like a sandwich (flat & horizontal across bb's mouth) & stuff it into ur bb's mouth when he opens his mouth wide so that he gets a good grip of the nipple & areola.

Yup bought online too - iherb amazon or diapers.com. But usually when u need it, it's urgent! So all r available in mothercare and agape babies.
BM is cfm the best but Haiz my "wound" is too serious and BM can't heal immediately... And the next pump is like 3 hrs away!!

Congrats to all the mummies who has given birth!
Have been a silent reader all these while.
I am 37weeks now and still waiting.
However I keep having this constant fear that I do not know how contraction feels like and also that my water bag will bust suddenly when I am outside.

Tks all!
are u still taking ur pain killers? ur pain shldnt be getting worse after discharge. do go back to ur gynae to check in case got infection.
I managed to recover (no pain) in 2wks for my 1st csect even thou I had some slight infection & I was seeing my gynae every wk till 6wks. managed to recover (no pain) in abt a wk for this csect.

Yeah... Mine also last minute. I only inform my boss and colleagues on Wednesday that my last day is next Tuesday. Mad rush I tell u! Suddenly overwhelm with work bcos it's like all rushing u to do this and that before U leave. Sigh...
Hi mummies, I'm currently 38+5 and saw my gynae today. My little one isn't fully engaged yet but she's already quite big. Gynae is concerned she may be too big for natural. But has concerns for inducing because he says inducing generally comes with long labour and higher tendencies for emergency csect. Can I ask for those mummies with inducing experience? TIA!
I can feel ur pain..i had that with my #01. Sore and crack nipples. But no choice, pain also have to pump, if not engorgement..i use medela cream that time. Heal quite well. But still takes time la...
JIA YOU°

My cousin induce also. Admit in 3am waterbag leak.. 8am dilate till 3cm only. . so gynae put her on drip to induce. 5 hrs dilate another 1cm. Gynae say cannot wait liao. Csect. When csect.. gynae say although her boy did engaged but head position no good.. so luckily the csect.. cos if natural eventually will also emergency csect due to head position.

I also had a mad rush cos I didn't plan it that way.. lolz.. and I started maternity earlier one week. Siannnnn..
Hmm... I was always hoping for a natural birth! My gynae says if by my next check up nth has happened, we will have to discuss where to go from there.. he was always hoping that a natural was possible despite her size, until today where he finally voiced concerns.. not sure what to do!
My EDD similar as yours but I tml start maternity leave. Wanted to rest a bit and prepare a bit before delivery. It's mad rush for work for the pass 2 weeks plus expecting mad rush for preparation of the LO later. At first I was contemplating postponing my maternity leave but decided to take it earlier in case haze come, unexpected stuffs happen, and I'm glad I made this decision coz I have water retention, very heavy, sleep also difficult now. And everybody tell me that stressing oneself during pregnancy is not good coz may affect the baby, etc. partly also becoz I'm 1st time mum so I dun haf the experience and dunno exactly wat to expect.

I think you don't worry too much just follow the gynae's advice.
My gynae too has the same concern since my 3rd trimester. Every visit he said my bb is slightly big and ask me control diet. My last visit at 39 week plus he made me did a detailed scan to measure bb size as he think natural might not be possible. In the end bb was about 3.4kg (3.7kg after +/- 300g) and i was beginning to dilate (nv mention how many cm probably too little) so he decided to keep waiting. I am 40 week 1 day today and going back to visit him to see what should we do...yesterday I had show but still no regular contraction...me too am hoping for natural if possible...
All the best to you!
P.S. while I finished typing this message my water bag burst...rushing to hosp now
