kimmylian: my tummy dun look big leh. my colleagues say look from behind, i dun look pregnant. i only gain abt 12kg during pregnancy. dun feel heavy leh, even can do heavy duty work. it's only during last 2wks then my bb weight suddenly shoot up. even my gynae also surprise. so big size bb, but towards my edd still dun wan to come out. dr say the bb will become bigger if i were to wait for natural birth, so opt for c-section lor. btw, my gynae is dr. wk tan from tmc. quite old, choose her cos she most relatives seeing her & comment tat she's good but waiting time quite long lor.

Hi bunz,
My gynae is from TMC Eunice Chua, I went to C-sect by full GA coz of my baby is big(3.55kg)and also I got high blood. My sister's friend go through half body scared her like hell, so she advice me to take full GA. Is my 1 child so abit scare and never been to operation room in my life. After the C-sect, the pain is bad. Walk like an old lady super xiong, and on the 3rd day dont know why I got heavy blood flow down my leg, just like miscarriage, I was in shock and ask for the nurse, the nurse say is normal but not everyone will be like that, coz of the breast feed my the contruction of my womb which course the bleed to be big flow.
Jolene,
You still young can try when your girl is 2yrs old. I got no time to wait already 37yrs old liao. My girl just turn 1, so have to start trying next year liao, they say ppl who try hard for baby is better to try for 2nd 1 within the 2yrs from 1st birth. I think among you guys I gain the least about 7kg. I got big frame and over weight so my gynae tell me to watch my weight so control what I ate.

Hi morning mummies,
Nellu,
I just realised your baby birth date same as mine, hehe 21st May is also my birthday too.
Bunz
I also don't know why my flow sudden flash out like that, actually mine flow is very little only so I change using the normal pad, then the sudden flow make me shock and after that its back to normal again. But the nurse did tell me if like that its better coz will lost weight faster, don't is it true or not also. My menses after my delivery last me till before I start work little bit each day. Then its stop coming 5 mths coz of breast feed then its start coming again even I still on breast feeding.
Sgn,
So far I didnt change the bottle, I also use Avent bottles. For teats I only change from 1 size to another like 4mths apart. As long its not sticky can use I think.
Peck,
The nurse never ask you to clear bowel meh, I was ask to clear bowel before they push me to the operation theater.

sgn,
Now my girl is 12mths plus, she also still drinking 4-5oz only. I try giving her more but she still drink that much only leh, small eater I guess. As for bottle from birth I brought 1 4oz and 1 9oz bottle, later find it not enough to rotate then I buy another set of 4oz & 9oz. Now her last feed is 10.30pm and she didnt get up till next morning about 6-7am for her feed. For now its still ok for me to use 2 4oz bottle and 2 9oz bottle for day and night. I also find small bottle is better for them to hold it when they drink their milk, I suggest you mix with big and small bottle.

Jolene,
Yeah have to rest at least 1 year that is how I felt. I just manage to regain my body strength and rest recently only and my girl just turn 1 only. I also want to rest another few more months before I start trying again. I also have post natal depression during confinement, can't sleep well and also cry coz my MIL kept wanting to take my baby out of my room, that point of the time I feel like she going to take away my baby from me (Don't know why, feel so stupid now when think back) My appetite still ok lah, but due to stress by my MIL and my mum I lost my weight even more than before my pregnancy by 5-6kg. But now all gain back after I stop breast feed, sigh....

jasmine- when i was doing confinement, i kept thinking my mom and maid were fighting to take the baby away from me. actually off and on, i feel tat way. of course its very silly, coz they just wanna spend time with bb, but i guess if u tried to take a lioness's cubs away even for a sec, she would tear u up right away! its instinct.
did u put back the weight after ceasing breastfeeding? coz i'm bf-ing baby now, and i'm wondering if i can feast as much as i do now and still maintain what is there after i stop.
jolene- last time when i went to wk tan, i took the earliest slot on weekday bt was still made to wait what seemed like eternity. anyways, the gynae now is ok, and my hospital is damn near my place... so i will just save my slot for someone else..

thanks sgn, peck and jolene for takin the time to vote for sidney.
we have a few shared names here, dun we? haha.
i'm using combi stroller. which is relatively light for me to lug down a few flights of stairs everyday(i dun stay on a lift landing floor!) and its ok to manoeveur. a few things u may wanna take note of
- reclinable in several positions (particularly for young babies so they can sleep, semi sit-when they turn 4-5 months but have not much back support, and then sitting position-when they can gather the world in full view)
- if the sunshade can be fully lowered ( i didnt buy one with this feature but it may be useful for babies who need to be in complete darkness when sleeping outside) also helps to prevent nasty hands from trying to get "frenly" with baby by pinching babies cheeks or reaching for the faces without permission.
-check that wheels are smooth and that pram is stable. some prams have small wheels and dun seem to balance very well. esp if u may end up hanging stuff on the back of the pram, it can result in pram tipping over. (of course, dun hang a bag of rice there, even if u have the most stable pram lah!)
-lightweight. easy to bring ard.
my lochia cleared within a month or so. but did come back on and off but according to my gynae it was pretty normal. better to check wtih gynae and let her know loh. anyway i'm bf, and i din have menses for abt 3 months, but it returned after that and its super heavy..

I'm trying to keep up with the thread. *catching my breath!*
Am sick again... and got to wear a face mask while nursing my girl. One problem after another. She's got eczema so I got to watch my diet... very strict one! I wonder how long I can continue with such a strict diet. No seafood, no milk, no cheese (my fav!), no chocs, no ice-cream, no this, no that! worse than pregnancy days. Now I wish I had eaten more junk food when i was pregnant. At the rate I'm eating, i think I will be less than pre-preg weight soon. Not very good since I hope to bf for long.

Shauna,
Have voted for your bb. Hehe he is cute. I have put on back my weight since I slow down breast feeding 3mths back. I think its normal for weight gain when you slow down BF. I realized during confinement mood swing is what I experience, tend to cry to relieve myself.
sgn,
When I store BM I also used up all my avent bottles I got about more than 6 4oz bottles & others 4oz bottles which total up about 12-15bottles. Now only used 2 4 oz & 2 9oz bottles for feeding only as she already taking soild food during the day & night. The rest of the bottles I already kept it for future use, planning for no. 2 next year.
Jolene,
Combi and Aprica is light weight stroller which you can consider if your traveling without your own transport. Both are light weight and easy to go around with. But when I go out, sometimes I uses the sling for easy access, don't need to squeeze the stroller among crowded places. And if you wanted spaces stroller you can go for P. Prego, Campella, I saw this you might want to take a look its big and spaces. http://sg.auctions.yahoo.com/sg/i:Brand%20new%20Micralite%20FastFold%20stroller%20pram:232007968

Stepford,
You mean your gal is allergy to dairy product ah? Its hard if you were to continue, but can you take fish? Fish is the best source for BM and I guess, if you can't take dairy product take more green vege and fruits which can make more good quality milk for her. Think it in a good way you can lost weight.

Hi kimmy,
I too have the same problem got wrist pain at my 6th months. My gynae says sometime it becoz of baby sitting on our nerve. During that period I also barring the pain and got no strength to get out of bed every morning, I took fish oil and calcium which my gynae say it will be good for me to take. After my confinement I still took fish oil and calcium as usual. I stop taking fish oil after I stop breast feeding, but still continue to take calcium daily, the pain had go away when my girl is about 5 mths I think. I think is good that you take calcium can strengthen your bone.

kimmylian- horror or pleasant suprise? keke. my wedding band was tight like duno wat during pregnancy, (remember the whale that gained 18 kg-yup thats me.) anyway, after delivery i have also very cleverly misplaced my wedding band, to the absolute horrendous horror of my hubby but found it after 2 months in the depths of my clothes. it fit by then.
thanks for voting.
wrist pain dun have, pain in the pubic bone area, yes. i was waddling like a duck towards the end of the race!

Kimmy,
7kg is a lot for me liao coz Im on the heavy weight side, don't think you'll understand how I felt, I was so worry when Im pregnant, coz I heard ppl putting on like 10-15kg and is normal for pregnancy, I was like "OH OH" how am I going to carry that extra weight and I think is becoz of my thyroid so my weight didn't gain much. I went for specialist during my pregnancy to treat my thyroid as well. In another way is a good thing for me not to put on too much also. So the weight I gain goes to my baby instead and most of my colleague think that I lost a lot of weight during pregnancy. Imagine I got evening sickness instead of morning sickness during my 1st 3mths is like want to die even drink soup during dinner also can't take it.
