Dsiitan & Jazzy,
The pains can be quite bad at times...like the tummy's going to be detached from my body...ouch!
Sometimes baby seems to be pressing on my bladder, keep going to the toilet!

Jazzy,
You quite good leh, can last for 2 hours, me cannot even tahan 1 hour then must rest liao.
 
poppy

Poppy
I went shopping yesterday.. think now better to stay at home then going shopping.. walk awhile, the leg so pain then breathless need to find a place to sit down.. cant stand for long also.. then the worst is looking for toilet.. the queue always so long.. then frequent the toilet loh.. clear liao.. after awhile the urge to go again.. haiz...

dsiitan
I tried to clear my bladder by sitting on the toilet bowl 10 mins before going to bed.. think that's helps.. then only wake up once to pee.
 
fruitee
really ah?? me very impatient one..cant sit inside toilet too long...even for big biz..i dun sit and wait...i tahan till buay tahan liao..faster go and let out..so always within 5 mins...can liao..hahaha
 
Angerline, Hahaha..my hubby says I am da fei zhu... Yah, I am interested in the cookie cutter... Yr stomach is low? Huh... is it because u are always carrying yr no1, i heard carry heavy stuff can make yr placenta low. Luckily I am SAHM, otherwise I will be like u.. I sleep at 2am.. wake up at 4+ and then cant sleep all the way til morning.
 
dsiitan
me coming to 35 wks on wed. ya lor...very cham...walk short while, out of breath, sit too long, back also ache. luckily my appetite still ok. but sometimes there's this reflux feeling when i lie down on bed. horrible
sad.gif


i also impatient...cannot tahan long queue. if i can tahan i will, then hb will scold. and i cannot just do it at any toilet...must be conducive - like hotel toilets - clean and quiet!
 
wow.. miss moon, u are taking 2 iron pills 3 times a day, me taking only 1 iron pill 3 times a day. Then u have problem going to toilet?? I only go like 1 times in 3 days.
 
missmoon
haha...like me..cant do it in any toilet...if dirty..i really tahan...my hubby said i very cham...but wat to do...remember got 1 time...must really go do big biz...i was at orchard..i took a cab back to my hse and released the bomb...dared not tell hubby..he will say i waste $$..if i do biz must do at home..cant do outside..scare the smell very strong..wahaha
 
Hmmm I think I will go to metro or JL to see if there's any KARMY Pj, went to women's secret ytd.. but nothing can fit me
sad.gif


i think i will just buy those overnight use one., coz i not use to wearing those without wings.
 
paranoid
some ppl not used to those without wings..me too..hehe...so will get a pack of maternity loh..but hospital oso give lah.last time MT E gave adhesive one...but heard TMC giving loops...so think get one pack of our own better..
 
dsiitan, i was like u before, but now i du dare liao.. just bomb whenever i need to... unless unless the toilet really CMI... like those in china... then i will lun!
 
paranoid
i heard ppl mentioned b4..oso they shave bb's eyebrows on the 1st mth...so they will grow in shape and thick...but me never try lah..

my SIL taught me whenever u clean bb's face...use a facial cotton wet it with lukewarm water,...clean the lashes...from top lid to end...then flip the eyelids and clean thefrom inside..top to end...this will lengthen the bb's lashes...that one i tried...hmm..dunno if it works but my boy lashes quite long loh...dunno is it becos of the method..hehe
 
dsiitan & missmoon
I'm also very particular about doing big biz outside. I will ren until I reach home. If really cannot tahan, I'll clean the seat with wet tissue then line it with toilet paper. I also get very stressed and feel constipated if there is a long queue waiting outside.
sad.gif


Paranoidmummy,
I just bought a box of maternity pads with wings from Mothercare.
 
dsiitan
I also very impatient one... but hor now cannot tahan too long ley... can feel the pain when releasing the bladder... kind of a torture!

Me on leave 1st Jul, looking forward for ML!!
 
Fruitee,
I was at Parkway yesterday and the toilet on the 3rd floor was closed, then had to go to the 2nd floor. The queue was super long!! Lucky I was not that urgent else I think I'll wet my panty
sad.gif
Those little girls who cannot tahan, their mummies had to carry them to the sink to pee!!
 
paranoidmummy
My mum used to do that for me! ermm.. my lashes claimed by a lot of ppl.. very long! My sis one also long.. it could be true i guess. Told my frd about it too.. she tried it on her gal.. now only like 4 mths.. think stil cannot see the effect
 
poppy, tat's the longest i can tahan.. at times an hr i am calling it a day. Most of the time i try not 2 go out for too long, lest i need the loo then troublesome.

missmoon, so u have applied ur leave? Still thking when i sd take, coz if take too early then laze ard at home qte bored.. plus the suspension & waiting.. well.. This week, gonna ask gynae if wd early or late. Thk he sd know hor??
Me am those impatient pple.. then preg, even more so.

fruitee, agree tat the "toilet frequency" qte ma fan when outside for too long. Tat's y try not 2 go out for too long.. or must go shopping ctrs wif "decent toilets".
 
Paranoidmummy
I heard about the cutting of lashes before too! But I think I dare not try, what if cut already later cannot grow out?? Then my girl's lashes will be super short? I think Dsiitan's SIL's method is safer?
 
wanna check wif u mummies.. if there's any diff between pillows made of green beans and bean sprouts husks? any good and bad between these 2 when used on bb..?
 
Angeline,
Was wondering why peoples dont like cancerian?? My boss and SIL also told me ask baby dont come out too fast. Wait till after 18th July which is Leo. I told them impossible, think baby will pop early la!

What is the different between Cancerian & Leo?

Jazzyjas,
Heeehee! Think i will wait till the big day then start my maternity leave. But now on and off i will still take leave if lazy go to work. :p
 
Poppy
Think if wanna go outside shopping ctrs walk walk, we better go toilet like every half hr just to avoid urgency to go toilet then too crowded gonna queue!

Jazzy
guess if we wanna go out durin the weekends, must plan the route & shopping ctrs with decent toilets!
happy.gif
 
paranoidmummy
so far no prob. according to gynae, this brand of iron pills doesn't cause constipation ley, so far so good. i try to balance it wif lots of water and fibre. very scared of constipation cos i had very bad one in first tri.

jazzy, yes, applied liao...told boss my ML will start on day of delivery. he quite relax abt it cos i found a temp to come in and help out. haha...once u're closer to EDD, ur body shld be able to send signal when bb ready to come out? if not, can just go ur mom's place to veg out while hb work. i intend to do just that...dun wan to be alone at home.

dsiitan, poppy, i will definitely line toilet seat wif lots of paper before i do small biz...big biz...cannot do it outside ley...
 
missmoon
if do small biz, I never sit on the seat :p But don't think I can do it for long, getting difficult to do.
 
Hi Joline,
I heard taking durians can boost baby's weight. U may wish to try? For me, I hate durians, so I dare not eat it. I think soya milk has more proteins than milk.

Hi Li May,
Take care & do keep us posted on ur delivery!!
 
Joline,
how abt avocado milk shake? I think durian is quite an effective way to gain bb weight. My sister also proven it.

YB,
I think soya milk wun make us put on too much weight as well.

Missmoon,
gd for u cos u know when u are going to deliver ur baby.
 
Joline
Yeh.. agree with Hong, durians sure can gain bb weight.. I'm one of them to try it.. keke..but now cannot liao.. they say as u nearer to yr EDD, better not to take durians...
 
Re Baby Lashes:
I personally cut my baby's lashes during the first 2 mths of his life. And it proven to be true. It grew longer and many ppl now commented that his lashes are very beautiful.

Paranoidmummy,
I supposed it's because I keep carrying my first one. He also very sticky to me one thing. That is the cause?

I'm pieces. I should be soulmate for them, but unfortunately, not so lei. One thing I really don't like about them is this fact.... they forgive, but NEVER FORGET. Yrs down the road, they can dig out history to argue with you. This is what I experience with my dad and my first boyfriend la.

Hong,

I'm not saying about your hubby. I'm talking about my dad and my first boyfriend. Prob, I'm not suited to be with Cancerians.

NOIF,

Prob Leo are more sunshine in personality mah. That's why they urge you to try delay till Leo sign.
 
Poppy, how much are they?

Fruitee n angeline u are the live example.. hahaha.. ok.. in that case i feel safer to try on my BB when he's out... hahaha i think i will try both methods!

Missmoon, got such iron pills ah? mine is long and pink in colour... urs?


Angeline, yah that's most prob the reason bah. Hey we got the same sign too.. my hubby happen to be a cancerian. Hahaha.
 
noif, ideally is wait for the big day then start ML loh.. bt am tired.. plus dun have much leave left.

fruitee, i seldom go out on weekends nowadays, unless its a must. Too crowded.. not 2 mention the loos long Q....
Btw, u start taking leave on 1st July? ML or annual leave?

missmoon, we have not find any temp yet. Juz now talked to my boss, sugg me to work, said office nearer to hosp, no point waiting at home.
Planning to do tat.. bt tat wd meant waking up same time as tho' working to go mum's place everyday. Staying over inconvenient, coz goto bring a few pillows over.

poppy, same here!! Used to not sit when doin small biz.. now no choice. Tat day go TPY, tried to half stand coz no toilet paper, did it quickly coz leg kinda cant take the weight.

hong, may i ask when u have ur girl, did u take ML in advance?
 
Angeline,
How to cut cut baby's lashes?? Like very dangerous cos very near to baby eyes..

But we did shaved my daughter's eyebrows and hairs during her full month celebration.
 
Hi Poppy,

I also just bought the maternity pads with wings from mothercare!! Finally found it.. But hor..i notice it's not the long...so may not be safe for night use. I may still buy the kotex one without wings..sigh.

by the way, the day, i had really bad dizzy spell..nearly fainted in office. I called the hospital emergency to contact my gynae. In the end, hospital operator said my gynae asked me to go and see a GP.. I went to visit the gynae at Compass Point Raffles medical and she is a really nice lady!

by the way, my baby's weight is 2.1 at 34 weeks. Also on the small side ..sob sob.
 
paranoidmummy, ya, mine's brown in col...neugobion or something like that. was told that this family ones, eat liao turn into b complex, won't cause constipation ley. so far so good (touch wood) i can go...the most is 2 days go once.
 
Hi MTBs,

Have you bought towels for your baby? If not, i recommend this brand from Robinsons ..it's called Annakku. It's really super soft for baby's skin. It's 5.90 for two pieces. I just washed it over the weekend and the texture is wonderful!!! Check it out.
 
NOIF,

Something I noticed about my boy... during his first mth when I attempt my first cut... I keep touching him here and there, he seems to take no heed to what I'm doing to him. THus, I proceed to cut both side of his lashes... that was the first few days after he's born. I used a rounded tip scissors.... and very very careful with what I'm doing. Second time I cut is 1 mth later, he still is oblivious to the environment, this time, I cut the tip of the lashes, where the new parts grew out, as directed by my sis, and indeed, it grew longer. Honesly saying, the second time when I cut his lashes, he was drinking milk in my arms. My hubby said I'm EXTREMELY daring. Now I see my boy's lashes, I'd got no regrets.

Paranoidmummy,

Having a Cancerian hubby...... is actually also a very wonderful thing. I still remembered... the surprises... the kind of little little stuff they are willing to do hands on for us.... their caring and loving nature. And they are downright romantic. Too mushy...... But I still miss it sometimes, of the things my first boyfriend did for me.
 
Angeline! Wow! really daring! I intend to do so while my boy is sleeping soundly...

i beg to differ, my hubby is very opporsite.. hahaha.. but one thing is that he's really homely like most cancerian
 
paranoidmummy
Me too going to do that to my boy.. ahahah... cos I wan my boy's lashes to look like my bro.. dark & long! Wow... ehhe..

Jazzy
I starting my ML in Jul. Annual leave will keep for December.
 
Paranoidmummy,
I cannot remember the price liao. Sorry.

Missmoon & Jazzy
Yah lor! Half squat! "Zha1 ma3"
happy.gif
Some toilet very dirty and smelly, even with toilet paper lined all over the feeling is still yucky. Unless I'm very tired and think that I may topple over then I'll line the seat. Bopian

Angeline,
Quite difficult right? baby's lashes won't be very long right? How much to cut? I scared poke the eyes leh.
 
poppy
haha, i also try to do the half squat...but since preggie, cannot liao.

how to cut bb's eyelashes? sounds so fragile ley
 
YB/Hong/Fruitee,

Me had tried taking durian but too heaty for me until i'm down with sore throat, cough and flu now..

Ya ya..I'm taking avocado more often now hopefully it helps to boost bb weight.. on and off I got take soya milk also..

By the way, anyone of you start taking coconut drink?
 

Poppy,
What I know is to only cut the tip. My boy's lashes did grow significantly and when he sleeps, it really looks like a fan there..... very nice.
