Baby's height and weight
My no 1 weighed 3.6 and measured 54cm at birth. Given that ds and I are tall, I suppose he's not that big. No 2 weighs 1kg already at 26 weeks!!! haha. I suppose she will be real tall and big too!

If you fear gestational diabetes, can cut down on carbo to control sugar level. Takecare

Annie, gestational diabetes, as name implied, only happen during the 10mth gestation leh. After that, most mummies will not have diabetes already. (ie if b4 preggie, they don't have).
Some unlucky ones will continue to have diabetes, but then again, diabetes got different kinds.
Milo, I am interested, maybe we can go for the talk or presentation together.

By the way, ladies,
I visited the warehouse of Infantino yesterday and so i thought I will share the experience here...
Went to buy screws and wheels for the 4 in 1 cot bed that is so popularly sold everywhere *esp kiddyland....so, ended up buying a new mattress for baby *since i got a 2nd hand cot*...and interestingly, we got a fibrelux - coconut husk mattress which is supposed to be much better than the foam ones cos of anti-bacterial and ventilatory functions....
foam - $48/49 plus...
fibrelux *which is thinner it seems and def lighter* is $89.95...i managed to get a 10% so about $80.
I was in the showroom while waiting to be served n saw so many cute things like musical mobile and stroller those-decoration-type thingy...aiyo...
and of cos they were packed for the taka sale happening fr the 1st/2nd march i heard....shermaine, the secretary-lady in charge there was very sweet and nice *as well as the other staff - helpful*...and she said might have 20% on those toys/thingies...by playgro/munchkins...so might want to go take a look then....
so should anyone need to go down for whatever reason - let me know n i will give u address n phone no, k? cheers.

thanks milo for compiling... there is a talk coming up for cordlife soon tho...one in march and 1 april i think, if u guys interested...can go down together or what...i can double check dates when i get home tonight n get back to the rest of the interested mummies...cheers.
chris,
i do have the same problem as you do. I think swimming helps..
I just went swimming last nite. For just 45mins.. i feel the difference. I tend to sleep better and the cramp seem to let me off last nite.
However, you have to do so warming exercise before swimming. What i do, i do those stretching exercise inside the pool..
Give a try.

hi chris,
No problems with putting it under my name lar as long as payment is made by u. ;-P
Where's Infantino? I'm very suaku...never heard of this lei. Their products will be sold at Taka?
For cramps, i get hubby to massage both my calves at nite before sleeping. Rem Mrs Wong's exercise tips on prevention of cramps? Think you can find it in her books. Try practicing it too. And when you sleep, ensure that you don't stretch your legs...always keep your legs slightly bent at the knees.
Btw, if i'm not wrong, one of the cordlife talks is on 7 March...which coincides with the doctor's talk (last session of the antenatel class) at SCGS (i think)...
Hi milo,
First payment for cordlife is now $1.4K!!!! If you have TMC card, there's a discount of $50 for 9 years of the annual fees of $250. If you introduce a friend, you can enjoy $100 off your next yr's storage bill...

Hi,
I've a big problem. My pte part where I pee hurts. There is a stinging pain as if got urine infection. And the tip of my tongue has ulcers also there is a blister on my lower lip. I have been religiously drinking lots of water but still there is all this which makes me very uncomfortable. Do you gals have any remedy for my problem. Do I still need to see a doc? I'm just so sick of taking medication...

Gd morning mummies,
Its been a long long time since i last posted here. Hv been so bz wif work n family. Hope everyone's fine. I'm expecting a boy again, n EDD is mid May.
About donating cord blood to public cord bank, wat i know is that those delivering in pte hospitals can donate too but when i delivered my son in 2004 at pte hospital, i was told cannot because they have too much already, and their storage is costly for them, though i don't hv to pay a single cent for donating. So I didn't get to donate in the end.

Hi Ino,
Yup yup we paid for the books but bought them under yr name since we will get a disc :=)
Yeah Chris, where is Infantino? I never heard of this place too?!? *Blur look*
Yup ladies, swimming really helps in toning body and i read that babies also enjoy when their mommies swim and play in water. I try to swim once a week on Sat evenings when i have no appts.
There has been lots of publicity abt cordlife thingee...is it really worthwhile saving the cord blood? Its ex to start an account and we have to maintain it every year with a fee somemore ;p So i really need to hear some views on this before i can decide.

hi yasmin,
better see your gynae. any form of vaginal infection now is not good for you and baby.
milo, i bought the Mamypoko newborn diapers at NTUC. they had a promotion for Feb. 52 + 2pcs at $15.80. i did not have a coupon but the promoter was very nice and gave me 1 so i can buy it at $2 cheaper. my 2 girlfriends told me Mamypoko diapers can absorp very well and do not leak, even at night. but they advise not to buy too many newborn diapers as baby may outgrow them before 2nd month.

hi yasmin,
betta to get your gynae to do a thorough test on your urine...sounds like a urinary tract infection to me. Besides that, do you also feel the urge to urine frequently? That's another sign. If u do not have any fever, the infection may be mild. But nonetheless, it's betta to get it treated fast. ;-)

Thanks gals. I will try taking juices and monitor if there is any improvement.
I just completed a course of antibiotics for urine infection. Now its like back again. Frequent urges to pee and just aft the last drop, feel need to pee more but no pee comes out. My pee colour is light yellow not dark yellow which was the case for last week. Will monitor than think will go for another urine test this Friday. Hopefully can fully recover by this Sat cos will be flying off. Dont want to suffer like this during the trip, if not $ so wasted.

Yasmin,
I think you better drink more water.. i have urine infection history even b4 pregant..
gynea stated that the urine should b clear in colour. yellow colour indicate your body didnt have enough water. dun 4get amino fluid (water bag) cannot be used in the body..
cranberry juice and barely drink helps...

Thanks Annie,
I drink abt 10-13 glasses of plain water a day. Excluding fruit juices, coffee/milo/tea etc. But still have this problem. Drink so much and end up going toilet so very often and its really tiring. Especially diff to find clean and non-stinking public toilets. End up these days dont go anyway. I also not too enthusiastic abt the trip to Aust. Also backache quite bad.
Eventhough I am a 2nd time mummy, this pregnancy is so very diff from my 1st. And its also more tiring for me. The only thing that keeps me going is that in just 2 1/2 mth time I am going to see my baby gal. So exciting.

Hi Chris,
I didnt purposely buy maternity swimsuit.I already had a 2-piece one since i swam frequently before i got pregnant so now still can wear that.
Ya i agree with Ino, you can get a 2-piece swimsuit for now and you can still use that after you give birth
Time flies! This Sat is our last lesson at TMC afterwhich there is only another Doc's Talk at SCGS. The 3 of us shd exchange contacts so that we can keep one another updated of latest happenings
