Weight gain also picking up suddenly (according to my weighing scale) also don't know how to rein it in! And last Sat hubby made me wait in shaded taxi stand for 1 hr cos of some delays... can die! Almost melted and was in nasty mood and then hubby dragged us to dinner with ILs and we ate in non-aircon place and after that, lingered in their home which has no aircon in the living room and a very sticky, strong-smelling sofa. Towards the end I was really almost going to cry
and then I insisted on going home, so think ILs think I have attitude problem. Then chewed hubby's ear off for being so insensitive to my heat and tiredness problem.
And Sun still had to eat lunch with ILs, luckily this time I specified we had to eat OUT (ie. not near ILs place since near their place meant no aircon and then lingering at their place). So we had aircon during lunch but after that, MIL still wanted to adjourn to our place and I was feeling tired! Dun get to see HB all week cos he was away, he only returned Fri midnight and then Sat and Sun I still must share with ILs I was feeling very buaysong that they weren't more automatic in giving us more time to do our own thing (like washing his clothes and packing etc since he flew this morning again).
End of rant.

are, heard of rustic but rather pricey. Heard another alternative is getting those confinement massage ladies to do a prenatal massage (seems that most of them do have an adapted routine for prenatal) which is cheaper, convenient (at your own home though not very... spa-like hehe), and you can check whether you like her style before your final decision on whom to engage to massage during confinement. Like sampling/ testing haha.
I might be wanting to have a massage, specifically for neck, shoulders, upper back, arms and legs... circulation like so sluggish. Needs some invigoration I think.
TBL, he wil be back early for this week- Thurs. But busy catching up work in SG office... then he wun fly for a week or 2, after that, another whole series of "weekday fly, weekend back". Then a lull in time for my delivery (in case baby comes early, make him stay for 1 mth before EDD and 1 mth after EDD). Then fly again.

u gals really talk fast when i dun hv time to come in leh
okie, so now gotta post my views in summary (instead of addressing individuals
)
<font color="0000ff">bb 1st month</font>
eh, u gals a bit KS or not huh?
bb not even near EDD & u'r here talking abt full month celebrations
clipart{lol}
for customs, TRADITIONALLY, will always have to follow hubby's dialect, no matter what. but we're living in modern days, & most of the times also dun follow any customs, so..... i guess it's up to personally preferences now.
as for the items to give (except cakes & red eggs), some are dependant on the gender of the bb, if i remember correctly
hmm.. took a quick browse at the joyful.com site. actually hor, how many will appreciate the $$ we put to package the cakes or such nicely, whether we include bb's particulars etc?? guess many will juz "dump" it away, so i don't think i'll spend such money (well.. me a bit ngeow lah)
actually if u hv printers at home, can juz DIY. get some label stickers, juz print the bb's name, dob then stick it to the gift voucher or cake box will do. think that's not too diff rite?
as for DIY red eggs, as long it's not super ugly, i guess no one will bother
anyway, not many pple will want to eat, so actually don't need to make so many. if hving buffet, can juz make some & put on table, those who wants to eat, juz help themselves. for cakes, giving cake vouchers will be most convenient for both parties cos they dun hv to lug home the cake, and can redeem at their own time (1 yr from date of issue).
<font color="0000ff">pre-natal massage</font>
i oso feel like going. whole body like falling apart.. hiaz... maybe will juz go for Rustic Nirvana's trial.
<font color="0000ff">bird nest</font>
i started only from wk 22 cos lazy to go & buy & hubby wasn't ard durin wk 18~21.

MTx3,
My hubby oso not in town, same be back on fri night. Dun feel so sad, cheer up ok. Sometime tink abt it... my MIL is too old & FIL oreadi not ard. Look thing at another angle at least my mil still can take care of u. But i dun enjoy these comfort, cos my mil is too old to ever cook for us.

MTx3, aiyo, poor thing! Go and get yourself a good back/leg/arm massage, you'll feel tonnes better. Hey, try this deep heat rub called 'Bengay', available at pharmacies, recommended my the nurse at my gynea's office, very effective. I'm also feeling a little sluggish these days (and just when I thought my stamina was picking up again!). Just get more rest and drink more water. For me, my pregnancy hormones reared its super ugly head a few times last week and I flared up and poor hubby had no clue what he did (actually its not him, its just my hormones). Felt damn bad when it happens cause he doesnt deserve the crap but my fuse is really alot shorter these days and its all triggered by my physical discomforts (how to be rational when my back feels like literally breaking in half?) Next time if you're already not feeling good (physically, emotionally), then dont set yourself up to blow up, just gotta tell your ILs that you're not feeling well, need to rest, see them another time.
Oranges, my hubby usually also fly 4-5 times a year, but very luckily this year alot lesser (only twice), and he's not due to fly at least until I deliver (thank goodness!). Time flies by fast, he'll be back with you soon.
On Rustic Nirvana, I call them up last week, and they told that up to 8 months, they will still massage the belly and uterus area. I am quite against anyone except for a gynea/trained nurse touching my uterus area because like what my antenatal instructor says, it can cause baby's position to move unnaturally and cause umblical cord to tighten around baby's neck- only a gynea or very experienced midwife can tell where the baby's position is exactly just by touch. Besides, I don't see how massaging of my belly helps allevate my back/shoulder/leg aches. Just my opinion. If anyone's going, do post the reviews after you went.
Does anyone knows how much caffeine does ice lemon tea contains? Cause I've been drinking it 3-5 times a week *guilty*

Caffeine is actually safe in small amounts. my cousin had to drink 2-3 kopitiam cups when she had her 2nd son becos of work and my nephew is intelligient and fair.
from a consumer website
"Birth and pregnancy problems: Some research suggests women who regularly consume more than 300mg (about three cups of coffee) per day may reduce their chances of becoming pregnant and increase their chances of having a miscarriage or delivering an underweight baby. Caffeine may also make its way into breast milk and make your baby jittery. To be on the safe side, pregnant or breastfeeding women should restrict their caffeine intake or avoid it altogether."

MTMTMT,
my hubby knows I still cannot tahan the smell of oil, especially recycled oil so when eating with in-laws we would eat at air-con places.
good excuse is that non-air-con places, people can smoke, not good for babies.
at in-laws house my hubby would on the fan becos he feels hot easily (before me).
my in-laws also like to come just after 8am on weekends to our home when we are still sleeping. comical thing is they would call and I would wake up and tell them that hubby still sound asleep. since hubby always sleep late before marriage, my in-laws would also adjust the time to abit later.

tea is about half that of coffee. read in the pregnancy books that if you want to drink tea, it is safer to drink organic tea.
coke has about half the caffeine level and root beer is caffeine free. think I'll go get a litre of A&W root beer later for my fridge.

eating about one mcdonalds 25c ice-cream cone per day. got ice cream craving. than if go food court would be tempted by the ice-kachang and chendol.
are,
had mug beer but hubby prefers A&W. we like ginger beer also.
Yingzi,
I have very bad backache. I actually sit on my long bath ledge so that I no need to bend so much. you can put a stool in your standing shower so that you can sit and bath.
try sleeping on your left side instead of on your back. I followed the book advice of putting one pillow on the stomach and one on the leg for sleeping and the aches got lesser.

So happy that safe to sleep on stomach becos fall asleep much faster that way.
"Q & A: Safe Sleeping Postions
By Dr. Jonathan Scher, M.D.
Sleeping On Back
Q: I fall asleep on my side, but every morning I wake up on my back. Should I be concerned that I may be harming my health or the baby's?
A: Sleeping on your back during pregnancy will not harm you or the baby. If nature didn't want you to sleep on your back, you would probably grow a hump! In some cases, when a baby's growth rate has slowed, a doctor may advise a pregnant woman to keep off her back as much as possible and lie on her left side, as this may enhance the blood supply to the baby. But unless you have this problem (known as "growth retardation") you don't have to worry--sleep how you like.
Sleeping On Stomach
Q: I've always slept on my stomach, but now that I'm pregnant, I've heard that I'm not supposed to do this. I don't know if I can sleep any other way! What should I do?
A: In a normal pregnancy, it makes no difference which sleeping position you use. You can sleep on your stomach, back or side if it's comfortable for you. The baby is well protected by the sac of fluid in which it lies, and your sleeping position cannot harm it or affect your pregnancy at all. "

yingzi, rochelle, since about a month ago I already cant bend to scrub my calves/ankles/feet. So I got hubby to scrub for me instead. He scrubs my back and legs these days cause I really cant bend much. I find that daily backrubs/massages really helps with my backaches. When your hubby is back, get him to massage your back, just 10 min a day will do.

oranges,

melody,
it depends on person and posture. for me clothes started to get tight due to bloat from 11-12 weeks but now is starting to swell where baby is.
chihiro,
have to shop for bottoms already else only one maternity overall to wear. my tops are still okay becos they are too big in the first place.

Wat kind of aqua aerobics do u do in the pool? I normally swim a very short distance, stop, walk, then swim again, stop, walk... Scare will strain my beloved bb. I tried to lie on my back in the water but dun know why but i feel so uncomfortable, also worried that bb will not have enuf oxygen supply.
CubieBB,
Since u can't resist caffeine temptation, I presume u gave in to it? Hee... hee... I'm very guilty of it. Always take a deep whiff of the coffee b4 I drink it. It's like a treasure to me cos I dun drink everyday.
Talking abt ice cream, I've developed an even greater liking for it ever since I'm in my 2nd tri. maybe also bcos of the super hot weather these days. I used to be so scared of the cold, now I'm always sweating like crazy no matter whether I'm walking, lying down or sitting. The fan is no longer enuf to keep me cool. Always feel that it's blowing hot air. Now my favourite section in the supermarket is where the freezer compartments r. Whoa, so cooling..
Wat kind of aqua aerobics do u do in the pool? I normally swim a very short distance, stop, walk, then swim again, stop, walk... Scare will strain my beloved bb. I tried to lie on my back in the water but dun know why but i feel so uncomfortable, also worried that bb will not have enuf oxygen supply.
CubieBB,
Since u can't resist caffeine temptation, I presume u gave in to it? Hee... hee... I'm very guilty of it. Always take a deep whiff of the coffee b4 I drink it. It's like a treasure to me cos I dun drink everyday.
Talking abt ice cream, I've developed an even greater liking for it ever since I'm in my 2nd tri. maybe also bcos of the super hot weather these days.

Oranges,
you might want to try Fybogel for your constipation, it's safe to take during preg and you can buy it from Watsons. Hope it helps...
