that is funny! anyway, mount E orchard has the same policy. Anyway, my husband is also extremely strange. He is keen to see the placenta and cord cause he is curious. *faints*. I' quite sure he would want to take pictures and videos too if allowed.

i read somewhere that only 3 or 10% babies are in breech. But going by what im reading on this forum, the % must be higher!! I'm 1 day away from wk35. In my last scan, my baby is still in breech. My gynae is also very keen on early C-sec, and will confirm the dates in my visit next week. She...

Thanks lynnie and haruharu! I feel better and more informed after reading your comments. I usually don't get details from my gynae at all. take care nana! Annd congrats!

hi lynnie, may i know what the swab test is? I'm currently at week 33. I had my usual last week and my gynae notes that my baby's head is still not down that. In addition, my amniotic fluid is quite low, so I've been advised to increasse my water intake. My gynae is advising for a C sec if the...

hi guys! just wanted to drop a note of encouragement. I conceived via IVF on my 2nd try through a private gynae and am currently at week 24. My husband and i have been through a lot to make this work. I went on a 1 year no pay leave to try for ivf and eventually didnt return to work due to...

hi mummies, quick question.. I'm turning 24 weeks this Thurs. I could feel my baby's kicks quite strongly last week. But he has been pretty still fo this weekend and today, I don't think i felt him move today at all. Read online that the baby couldve shifted position or started to curl up this...

Hi there! Have you contacted PEM yet? I heard that the standards of their CN varies, but i guess it is a safer bet since it is an agency and should be able to find someone for you. Might be quite late to find a good freelance CN now. I was considering PEM initially, but ended up with a...

:oops: haha ive gained over 9kg by now and im only 22weeks : P Doc did ask me to slow down weight gain, but did not send me for glucose test. I'm so curious now. When i last did my detailed scan, i was 19weeks and baby was only 300g! 800g is WOW. on maternity clothes, i'm always scouting...

Thanks guys! I feel much better after knowing im not the only one with a not v obv bump and low placenta. Actually i've already put on a whopping 8kg cause i caved in to my cravings and kept eating in the 1st trimester to keep nausea at bay. But ive been putting on weight everywhere except on...

oh, additional question to ask. My placenta is still looking low during my detailed scan last week. It is not covering my cervix but it is lower than it should be. I've asked my gynae for advice several times., but she doesnt have any advice other than asking me not to 'bounce' around. Any of...

@DesperateMummyWannabe , @Maggie760 , i've been suffering from massive indigestion too.. I hate the feeling of regurgitating what i just ate (sorry, TMI). Still having that problem despite keeping to smaller, more frequent meals.. My gynae is not very sympathetic to problems as such.. I'm 21...

thanks for the advice on how to counter water retention. And your comment about cold drinks is making me excited again, maybe i will try drinking cold drinks later!! by the way, where did you do your prenatal yoga when you were carrying #1? @strong_seagull , @pongtch , i feel excited just...

anyone feeling their baby's movements yet?? I had a false alarm last weekend. I had a bubbling sensation around my tummy. I thought it might be the baby.. then i realised that it was due to the cold drink i was having. chey...

my fingers and feet are sometimes swollen in the mornings! Probably due to water retention. Still, it comes as a shock to me since i thought this happens later on in the pregnancy, like 3rd trimester. I can't put on my rings and fit into my ballet pumps. Usually the swelling will ease in the...

hello! u can get it from mothercare
