Canopyhaze> congrats on passing of ur exams. Post natal massage: If c-sect, can't go for the massage is it? My #1 was via c-sect, so I never considered going for the massage; hope to try for vbac for #2, but too early to tell i guess, so do i have to book this much in advance if I wanna go...

hammiebao>> When I was 32weeks, I was diagnosed with pregnancy induced high blood pressure, and was admitted for a period of 4 days. Actually, gynae said they'l monitor situation and if need arises, might deliver at that period itself, but since after that episode, my BP kinda stabilised, gynae...

Shice, I am on Facebook, possible to add me to the group? Ladies, anyone has successfully delivered ur #2 by VBAC? I am seriously considering normal delivery and I just wanna know what are the chances to achieve it. For my #1, it was a planned c-sect, upon completing 37weeks. I opted for the...

Bblove, I started pumping on day 1 itself, cos mine was a planned c-sect, and my dd was in NNU as she was only 1.91 kg at birth. So, I had to express my milk and give it to her via small bottles, but obviously, I didn't have anything much on day 1, not even the colostrum, but by day 3, I...

Breast Feeding Actually, some suggestions given to my for my #1 to increase milk production was ikan bilis (anchovies), fenugreek, and MIL always says, garlic is good for milk production, so used to include lots of garlic in the cooking when I was BFing. But i guess the real solution is to...

Snowger, yes, it's a horrid sensation. I hope we can get over this soon. Piscean>> I don't usually take soups with my meals, but I do drink sips of water after my meal, is that not ok? But I can't take the slightest bit of spice these days, can u believe it, even cheezels seems spicy and creates...

Ladies, Anyone have serious episodes of heartburn? I have this constant burning sensation in my throat. Just threw up a while ago, all watery and it burnt my throat as it came out! Any remedy?

Serena >> the site you provided has some nice maternity wear selection at affordable prices, thanks!

I currently have my maid who's been with me for almost 3yrs now, since DD was about 3 months old. She's ok with my girl and the housework, and of course, there are bound to be misunderstandings. We just have to close one eye on these things. Only wondering what I will be doing when #2 comes...

Ctrus, not to worry, just ensure you don't drink so much of juice as opposed to having the fruits as a whole. A friend of mine was diagnosed with gestational diabetes with her #1, but now, for her second pregnancy, she's fine. She just avoided anything that's too sweet and abstained from fruit...

Sterilizing: I agree with piscean33, I stopped sterilizing early this year, when daughter was around 28months old, and washed her utensils with separate sponge and pigeon detergent. And now, with time, I mostly use her pigeon detergent only to wash her medicine spoons. When I used to travel her...

For my first pregnancy with my daughter, i had gained about 7kg for the entire prenancy, till about the 28week check-up, tho i hadn't gained much weight, my gynae told me the baby's growth was fine and all. And suddenly, on the 32nd week, I was told it was IUGR, and I delivered my gal upon...

I've put on a total of 2 plus kgs since this pregnancy started, as compared to my pre-pregnancy weight. Hubby's almost admonishing me, to just eat more! I try, but I often get this heartburn, and then suddenly feel full, but when I do get hungry, I ensure to pop something in. Atleast when at...

Yiping, how exactly are u able to endure a 1.5hr session of the facial, lying on ur back? I seriously couldnt last thru' my last session I had, was turning to my sides every now & then

My next appt with my gynae is scheduled in early Oct, at 25wk ++. It's in the evening actually, and my gynae told me nothing about the GT? Since it's in the evening, it'l be kinda difficult to fast right? Should I call up the clinic to check if I'm due for the GT test on this coming appt, so...
