tinklebell, i got the beanie cap from mothercare, under the precious range. baby jake's precious bear is also from the same range.
re hosp stay - jake's bill was abt $3K, my bill for studio, very affordable, only $480.
MOAP, wow... pumping 1 lt a day? I dun think i can do it. now, i only express about 50 ml per pump, both breasts. funny.. one breast can express 40 ml, the other, only 10 ml. could it be milk duct blockage?
hidora, yes, me too, had diarrhoea the day before i deliver, then show.. must monitor lo...
kite, few times, i took coconut, and felt some cramps... so i stopped. if you are not sure, maybe should wait till week 38 then take coconut. i started week 36 as well.
hi cookiemz, congrats! hope you are enjoying motherhood...
Celeste (celk), ya, the heel prick to draw blood... my bb has to go thru that everyday since he is Day 3 old... poor boy... gotta be by his side and pat pat his chest while they draw two tubes of blood... me also felt like crying, but held back my tears... cos as mummy, i have to be strong to console bb...
Celeste Blur (ahblur), once you start the oral antibiotics, please do not stop. I took one course during my preg, good for bb and me. even after delivery, my gynae also gave me some antibiotics... so i think should be safe to consume even when breastfeeding, as gynae knew i am TBF.
okipoki, try fu zhou barley and gingko nuts... very nice. i had that daily prior to delivery.
