    pinky, warm water will also make me have reflux... I think maybe I will continue making the longan red date tea, just more diluted so that it's not so heaty. blue-black sounds like you bruised the flesh... take it easy for a while and it recover, else quite hard to tell whether it's engorgement...

    SN, so did your #1 have meltdown at night yest? My #1 was also like that at 2yo when she went without a nap. I'm lucky that many of the friends that I invited have kids around the same age as #1, so they had a blast! I think my #1 enjoyed the party most of all haha... I'm also glad that...

    blessmum, glad to hear that! Now you can plan for the full month! Yesterday we brought baby along for my 1 mth checkup at KKH, and went to NEX for lunch after that. Maybe due to over-stimulation or poor feeding/sleeping outside, she was super fussy the whole evening and gave us hell until 11pm...

    blessmum, my girl did the phototherapy at day 4 for 24 hrs, then was discharged on day 5 when level dropped. The jaundice level continued to go up (but still not high enough for phototherapy phew!) and peak at 6-7 days, like what one of the mummies in FB said. After that, the level started to...

    lxb, don't be too stressed up... it's normal to produce more milk on one side. During #1's time, my right side supply was only half then volume of the left side. Plus there's no hardness, always soft soft one, so it's not blocked ducts. Try to always latch your bb on the less milk side first...

    czlyf, this is the usual pre-admission procedure, they want to check your blood count to see if they need to standby blood from the bank. For my case, I was supposed to take blood one day before the scheduled csec, but my waterbag broke one week before that. End up I did the blood test then and...

    pinky, my red blood count has always been on the low side, I think the worry is loss of blood during delivery. During #1's time, I fainted twice during the hospital stay after the csec when I tried to get off the bed! So this time, I consciously tried to keep my blood counts normal by eating...

    SN, me! No helper, but #1 goes to full day childcare. These 2 weeks she's at home with me as her school is closed 10 days due to HFMD outbreak. Lucky she's old enough to play by herself most of the time, and hb gets off work early to bring her out to run around some days. I'm starting to worry...

    Hi mummies! Haven't checked in for a while... fuzzybear, good to hear that things are more stable for you. Jiayou! I will wake baby up every 3 hrs to feed during the night, so that the bilirubin gets flushed out at regular intervals and doesn't build up. littleprince, I don't have a CL, but...
