Haiz, so many things cannot do...so many things can trigger....this is the time when we need comfort most
But actually if not time to come out, do everything also no trigger.
like me.. I tried and tried but no come out leh.

Hello mummies!! JTS... I've safely delivered our twinnes yesterday right smack on 37 weeks! It was a last min decision to bring them out earlier as Dr handsome wasn't confident that I can wait till the 9th as I would be 1 day shy of 38 weeks. I might risk having e-csec plus I felt a tad lesser movements on one of the nights which made me paranoid. Jie jie came out at 2.3kg and didi 2.6kg. Coz jie jie is less than 2.6kg so they gota monitor her sugar levels.
The csec experience is out of this world!! The tugging & pressing against my chest and below is really OMGGG!!! I literally teared & made a lot of noise & felt my ribcage is falling apart! But it could be just me due to the position of them. My sis & sil didn't really encounter pain per se with the same tugging etc. But yes, once u see the babies when they brought to u to kiss kiss/skin contact is so surreal. I teared & teared esp knowing how hard we have gone through to get here.
So to all mummies/daddies whom are waiting to pop...jia you!!! Wishing everyone a smooth delivery ahead!

Hi dear, mine wasn't e-csec. Mine was last-min-slot-in csec. Quite a mad rush to do the final paperwork. Haha...I guess if u have at least 24hrs advance notice with OT slot available, it wouldn't be emergency. Initially we wanted on that day itself on 2nd June but that will deemed to be emergency. That's why we did the following day instead after handsome called OT side to confirm that 1 & only slot available

I think was the position such that jie jie has to be out first.

Congrats Bunny! Didn't know that u've delivered! I remember our edd abt the same? U take care too ya
Haha ya. Mine was quite sudden too cos my BP high n twin 2 weight stagnant with low fluid so dr Loh want me to deliver early. I delivered at week 35+5 weeks n was so worried baby need nicu but dr Loh assured me is ok to bring babies out at week 35 and with steriod jab not necessary need nicu.
With confinement nanny & helper at home still manageable for now. Hope after CL leave I can still cope. Now I can even take nap ;-P

Yes feeling much better. Thanks! Now planning baby shower which is headache also. Everyone said must have bb shower early n not late by one day.
I chop my date with handsome dr 2mths ago. I have be asking him for letter to do admission. He keep telling no need. I chop him on 1july. Hear he call the OT to book 2slots after me another of his pt too. My next appt with him. I will be 34wk. Will remind him to let me do admission. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to know how much n which class to choose
We usually do it earlier that Wkend.

Hope all goes well for u dear
Bunny my number was pre term at 36 weeks, I managed to buy hospitalization insurance for her at 4 months old
Hope everything goes well for u.
Thanks Gan. Maybe I should wait another month to buy ins. I am worried one co reject the rest will also follow.
It's consider 4 days 3 nights. If u deliver fri should discharge mon. U can check in midnight cos charges for the day is the same.
Thanks bunny, dr Loh has asked me check in 430 PM as my c section wld be evening
Wow why so late. Cos the date u want full?
No wor, was suggested by dr Loh. He said helped me check auspicious time..so funny
Haha. Maybe daytime his slot full. Mine was lunch time. He really super busy work day n night.

Ya 35+weeker baby doesn't necessarily means require nicu. If they're healthy & at least 2kg and above usually no issues wan. Anyway glad that u've also safely delivered. Now can enjoy the fruits of your labour!
I'm also having CL & helper with my mum helping me doing marketing...so I guess I still can rest easy for that 1 mth at least with the possibility of extending. Everyone was telling me for some reasons, the little angels turn into little monsters once they get home from the hospital!
....keeping my fingers crossed!

From wat I understand from my sis CL during then was if bb girl cannot do late but bb boy is ok. Rationale was bb girl if do late next time will be left on the shelf. Something along that line. We're doing away with bb shower so save us 1 headache. Hehehe but do remember to ask your CL to be your gatekeeper so that your boys will have lesser bodily contact with friends or relatives.

If he has booked the date & time with OT side, u can just go ahead with pre-admmission paper works first. I did it w/o his admission letter also coz we kiasu! They will just KIV that part. So we had the cost breakdown & selected our ward class tentatively first w/o paying deposit as u can pay upon actual admission once u confirm chop your ward class that very day.
That's the belief. To make things worse, i think the full month celebration need to follow the chinese calendar le, may not necessary be 30 days from the birth of your babies. Quite sian hor. How's your csect wound getting along? Better?

If you ok to spend on the engagement of the CL, good to extend coz other than having enough rest, as first-time mum, you will have more time to learn from the nanny. But there will still comes a point where she has to leave and left with you and your helper to manage the babies and the household chores.
And yes it's true, the little angles will be angels as long as we are not the ones taking care of them at night. LOL. Everything seems to be so easy when the confinement nanny is doing it. But when it is our turn to take over, it's so soo sooo difficult and chaotic. But please dun get frustrated with yourself, the babies or anyone who is helping you. It takes a bit of time to get the hang of it. Get some help if you think you have reached the end of the threshold and please press on, babe!
Isit? My mum and mil insisted that full month and birthdays cannot do late wan, be it boy or girl. Heng you can do away with baby shower, if not have to prepare the pig trotters in vinegar and do all the preparation work. Actual day also super tiring for everyone. You bringing twinnies for the shave or wait till 3 months?

Ya, some friends and relatives buay zi dong one....some do not have the habit of washing hands after going to the toilet and some are worse, not feeling well still turn up and go near the baby!!
I dread that some love to touch the baby on the cheeks and usually, I will give a dirty look and say "dont touch, his face is sensitive"

Ya, bo bian, this one month quickly learn the ropes and get the hang of it. Else you will feel very lost and helpless..but then again, at the end of the day, you will still make it.
