kite - Guess we posted at the same time! Good luck with the detailed scan! Hope that your BB will show you his/her gender. I bet you are excited!!!

Hi japepearl,
yes.. detailed scan is done with ultrasound scan on abdominal area.

Hi Kite,
I started feeling baby kicks at 16 weeks. Hubby and I can feel when we put our hands on my tummy. Also same as u, feel kicks at night when I lie flat. Initially was on the lower right tummy, now I can feel it on different areas of my lower tummy. Very cute... now frequency of kicks and movements increase. :)
 
Hi Joan,

I also experience more flutterings when I lie on the bed. On sat, after my workout, there were more kicks even. Later on, I read that after u exercise, our body releases endorphins which will actually make the baby happy!! Hahhaa, I wonder if that's why the baby is making all the kicks!!

ANyone decided on whether to buy a cot or playpen? Went to Paragon there is this shop next to 9mois that sells pretty cool playpens and cots. Do check it out.
 
Hi Upie,

Yeah, in Chinese Characters names for babies, the number of strokes do mean something for the baby. For example, my boy was born in a month and day full of fire, meaning he will be a very bad tempered boy. Thus, the fortune teller, You Long Zi, gave my boy a name which actually diminish the fire.... with the number of strokes. Don't know how true it is la, but I'm monitoring his temper.... he's now showing signs of a pampered only child, very very very demanding.

Hi Joan/Kite,

It's so exciting to feel the movement of the baby right? I also am feeling it right now and was very surprised that they actually moved so early. In my first pregnancy, honestly, I felt it only during the 5th month. Too much fats on me I think.... :p

Hong,

I finally decided to go ahead with the bulk purchase for the maternity clothes. But quite upset that one of the top that I set my eyes on was out of stock already and I just couldn't find another one which is as nice as that outfit. It's actually to go with my jumper and another of my clothings..... now, no more..... upset upset upset...... Oh ya, I am showing signs of reject against luncheon meat lei..... terrible....

All mummies who are suffering from lack of sleep, do take care of your health ok? During weekends, do catch more sleeps.......
 
Hi May,

Actually, I'm also in a dilemma of whether to get a cot currently. Previously, me and my hubby decides against getting a cot so that baby can sleep with us. But now, I really regret it. We lost alot of intimacy and the priviledge of being able to simple reach out to each other..... esp with baby in between. It's quite impossible to get him sleep elsewhere cos he's very used to my presence beside..... if I'm missing from his side, he will wake up and cry.

With the second one on the way, should I get a cot????
 
Morning Ladies!!

Eeyore
My tummy also quite small... abit worrying but gynae say it's ok ley..

Japepearl &amp; Missmoon
it feels like tapping feeling loh.. On &amp; off.. kekek
 
morning everyone!

fruitee, orh....then ya, sometimes i feel it lah but it started only very lately like. i was told some first time mtbs feel baby movement only from 18th week onwards.
 
Morning gals.. wanna ask have any of u gone for haircut? Now ok to go a not?

missmoon, oic.. weekends BM were better, coz ate plenty of fruits &amp; drink prune juice. Coz dun like the taste so i usually pour a bit then add water wif 2 ice cubes. Been drinking cold drinks lately.. as in ribena etc put ice loh.
Really? Woke up ard 4x last time.. juz outa blue..

ashleywcy, my hb dun massage, he merely "rub back softly". Bt he refuse 2 do it daily.. ha! Said very tiring.. mm.. who is more tiring huh?? ....

fruitee, how r u today? I have yahoo messaenger bt new pc hb has not downloaded the program yet.
I chk the postings daily except weekend, if u r bored, drop a line &amp; i wd try &amp; reply.
happy.gif

I dun feel the bb kicking yet. Bt a bit pain on the right side of the abs last nite.

japepearl, i read from a website that not nec 2 go BM daily, ard 3x per week is ok. Used 2 go daily last time. I have not done details scan either. Bt nurse depends on gynae's decision.
 
Missmoon
I only felt it like last few days... especially when hb call, the tapping was like more frequent loh.. think bb wanna tell daddy that he miss him bah...

Jazzyjas
Thanks... I'm quite ok I guess.. weekdays working so still can get things out of my mind... last weekend was quite bad for me loh.. not so much of missing hb but more about worrying for him loh..
sad.gif
 
jazzyjas
haha, i went haircut during 1st tri and just before cny, went again. safe lah, just ask them to wash hair wif you seated down and rinse quickly lor if lying down is uncomfortable. just no colouring or treatments lah. i can understand...i really dislike prune juice also...taste gross...but better than eating prunes right? i drink it at room temp leh, cos they say better avoid drinking cold stuff.
 
Jazz,
u can go for haircut anytime. Just not chemical treatment.

Angeline,
Maternity mall system is funny. They cant tell u if ur selection is out of stock insteadly. cannot find any nice top in spore? i havent wear my jumper yet.

Ur son still co-sleep with u? my daughter used to sleep with us cos MIL cosleep with her. End up she very timid. She wanted to sense pple ard her when she sleep. Now we make her sleep on her own sofa bed just next to my bed. still co-sleep but in the same room but diff bed.

Baby cot - i have one hand me down. My daughter dun like to be in the cot. So end up to be useless white elephant but luckily is FOC so i passed on to another cousin.

Fruitee,
i have a small tummy this time too. When to checkup and i lost weight again but baby ok. Dun think my 2nd one will be as big as the sister.
 
Jazzyjas
I'm going to cut my hair tonite.. cannot take it liao.. simply too long already.. ekkeke.. think cutting hair is ok. as long as not chemical treatments loh

Hong
Think it might be I very petite that's why the tummy also dun show loh..
 
fruitee, ur bb accompanying u loh..
happy.gif
Knows tat papa not ard so he "knock on the door" on n off 2 let u know his presence.
Isit? Me almost went yest.. coz my hair is oso long.. lately kinda lazy 2 wash oso. Bt still make it a pt at least 2 days must wash bt working days wd be daily wash.
Mite go later oso.. after visiting gynae.

missmoon, ok.. thot of asking them not 2 wash juz cut wd do. In case, they massage the shoulder u c.. gonna cut it short so tat when wash easier 2 dry.

hong, ok.
happy.gif
 
Jazzyjas
ya loh.. at least feel bb presence.. make me feel better loh... know that I'm not alone!
happy.gif

I feel like cutting it real short loh.. cos plus weather so hot somemore... but my hair got natural curl.. think cut short, all the hair like bird nest... ahahaha
 
fruiee, it must be a great feeling.
happy.gif
Dunno when my bb wd start knocking oso.. hehe.. kinda excited.
happy.gif

Umm.. can be qte nice oso leh.. u got SCV? If u watch the gal Nicole on Ch55 8pm show, her hair is short &amp; permed.
 
jazzjas
ya... saw the hairstyle... not bad hor.. but really not brave enuff to be so adventurous... ahhahhha... will check with my stylist tonite see what he say.. now seeing the curl hor, can make me very frustrated...
 
jazzyjas, haha, save trouble ask them to do quick wash but dun wash also can lah. wah, how short you gonna cut?

eeyore...decided liao lor, my mom going to do my confinement and also take care of bb when i go back to work. will have to get a maid to help out with chores though. how abt u? and everyone else?
 
fruitee, i am thking wd chose sth that is not 2 difficult 2 brush esp in the morning "rush hr".. hee.. short hair at times kinda stubborn, sticking out all over the place.

missmoon, actually the best part of cutting hair is washing loh.. coz its qte comfy the way they massaged. Eh.. perhaps juz below the ear?? Long time no cut short hair already.. hee..

Gonna get a confinement lady.. then mum or MIL wd pop by on n off i guess. Coz both still nid 2 go home &amp; do housework etc. Have not start searching though. As for after tat, i not sure, we wd c how thgs go.. have asked mum 2 look after bb if i continue 2 work.

Btw, going off soon, wd chat wif u all tmwr.
fruitee &amp; missmoon, take care.

Hi all MTBs,

I had not online for a long while, lots of msgs to catch up. Hope all of you had a wonderful CNY ;)

ashleywcy
I think during the pre-parenting course/class, they do teach hubbies how to give their wives a good massage, it's very comfortable. My hubby does give me gentle back rub when i request for one.. hmmm almost every night ;P

Angeline
I think baby outgrow baby cot very last, less than a year, so best if you can get a hand-me-down, to save cost. Mine is also hand-me-down, my no.1 just sleep barely 7 months, esp when they know how to roll-over, best to put them on mattress on floor with lots of pillows as "fortress". Currently, my no.1 is sleeping on his own single bed, stick close to the wall, joined next to our king-sized bed. It's a lot more easier to check on him when he's sleeping. With no.2 coming along, we just put up the cot for a couple of months, before we had to re-shuffle our beds layout.

My no.1 is taken care by nanny, who is longing to take care of my no.2 so problem solved for us. We only worried about our finances only.
 
Hi angeline,
yah... during my 1st pregnancy, tummy began to show only when close to 5 mths with some fluttering feeling inside but not sure if that was baby moving or stomach churning. :) Hubby and I only started feeling baby's kicks at 5 mths when we put our hands on my tummy.
This time, tummy showed when close to 4 mths with fluttering feeling. Then hubby and I felt baby's first kick at 16 weeks on the day hubby passed IPPT... haha. Really cute... and now can feel it more obvious and frequent, especially last night when baby kept kicking and moving alot. So hubby and I took turns to feel baby's kicks and movements. Wonder what baby was doing inside. :)
 
Laura,

Thanks so much for your information. I thought of getting the cot because seen many babies actually slept in there for almost 2 yrs..... but now, with your experience, I think it's better to save the money. I'm now currently quite big headed in regards where to place my 2nd one...... had a long long debate with my hubby but no outcome.....

Eeyore,

Currently, my MIL is taking care of my 1st and it's already very straining on her. As much as I would want her to take care of my 2nd, but many things did happen and made me hesitate on going back to her. Maybe getting a maid? Maybe asking my mum..... I don't know yet.

How old are you? How come there's a question of are everyone young mummies here?

Missmoon,

Ha ha, speaking about drinking cold stuff, I was quite naughty as I am constantly caught with ice water in my hand.... my hubby can only shake head throughout..... Honestly, when my first baby was born, he was quite hairy and my mother kept commenting it's because of the cold drinks that I consumed.... Is that scientifically proven???

Fruitee,

What hairstyle you talking about? I quite curious..... heh heh heh

Hong,

Thyme maternity do sell what I'm looking for but it's quite ex. Thinking of saving a little liao cos I really cannot stop buying clothes..... now aiming on shoes again. Haiz.....
 
Joan,

Envy envy you.... you and your hubby actually will share the joy of feeling the movement of the baby. Whenever I place my hubby's hand on my tummy, he will end up tickling me instead and I will try hide away and end up cramp on my leg..... haiz... terrible hubby of mine.
 
hi Angeline and Hong,

May i know where to buy Maternity Jumper again... Think i ever asked you before, but have forgotten liao... Went to IMM and Queensway last week but couldnt find a shop that is selling the Jumper....
 
Hi Mel,

I ever bought some clothes from Spring but I like their bottoms more. As I also work in Suntec, I find a lot of preggies there wear Spring tops..so i avoid buying the tops from Spring...Kekekek

I would recommend Swell, which is next to 9mois at Paragon. The tops are quite nice, abt the same price as Spring.


Eeyore,

I'm no young mummy. I already hit my big 3-0....Hahahha
 
Gebbera,
I got mine from auction.
Angeline may able to help u.

Caregiving - My mother will be doing confinement for me. After my maternity leave, my MIL will take over my child. Elder daughter will be placed in Childcare.
 
Hi Hong

was wondering how did u get to know about yr gynae, Dr Lawrence Ang? Is he good?
me now looking for a new male gynae that will deliver at TMC..

and Jadepearl.

wat about yours, Dr L.C Cheng?
 
Hi May,
Was wondering if you have any unwanted SPRING receipts? i am short of another $ 130 to get the privilege card.

Or anyone who has SPRING receipt and do not have intention to get the privilege card....??
 
missmoon... tot of gg back mum's place for confinement too... after gg back to work shld b my mum loh... but dunno whether hb agrees anot... he prefer myself to take care of bb...

jazzyjas, having haricut n slight shoulder massage is ok but not chemical treatment... my hairdresser even if we want she won't even do it for me...

for all mummies info... heard that if baby grow very fast... baby cot is very fast not in use... so better to buy playpen that have adjustable level... can use until 3 years old...

angeline, i'm 30 by the time i deliver... and it's only my first bb... i'm scared of being a old mummy actually...

joan, i envy u too... cos my tummy is nt showing much, especially when gg to 4th month... and not feeling any movement too...

mel, i bought a jeans from spring maternity, feels comfortable, nice cutting and color too... they do give out bookmarks, if u spent $100, they'll give u discount of $10... altougth nt much but better than nothing...
 
Jazzyjas,

Haha! My hubby also says tiring, hmph! Oh, my gynae says can cut hair and even highlight hair! But try not to dye since the chemicals may come to direct contact with your skin... no good.

Laura,
Lucky you! We have not gone for prenatal classes yet. But I'm already on a mission to slowly psycho my hubby that if he massages me, he can bond better with BB too. He warms up to ideas new to him very slowly one. Hopefully after we go to those classes, he'll volunteer more often =p

missmoon, YB &amp; Japepearl,
Thanks to your messages, my hubby actually volunteered to apply stretchmark cream for me on Sat night! But on Sun, he forgot about it totally =p Haha! Anyway, it's already a good enough start =)
 
Taking about stretchmark cream, any good brand of stretchmark cream that you had used and can recommend?

I had been feeling something in my tummy since CNY, not sure if it's the baby kicking. I can't recall how's the feeling like.

BTW, just to share with you my weirdiest dream i had last night, I dreamt that I had given birth to my 16th weeks old baby! How is that possible? Perhaps I'm so stressed that my no.2 is going to be a premature baby, cos' my no.1 came out at 33 weeks.
 
Hi Gebbera,

You can try Thyme Maternity for the jumper. They have ones of pic as above, and one with long pants. Pricing is about $90++ onwards. I bought it at United Square. Going to collect this week. Heh heh heh.....

Eeyore,

Ok.... cos there's a thread in the forum where there are alot of young mummies there. from age 18, 19, 20, 21.... I'm approaching 25.... so can't be compared to them.... heh heh

Eeyore,

The one above is not what I'd bought. Cos afraid to show my thunder thighs you see..... but it definitely looks cute right?
 
eh, jazzyjas, you very brave leh, cut just below ear. i cut until shoulder length still feel a little odd. hehee

angelline, haha, not sure about that but i highly doubt it lah. actually i think it's ok to consume cold drinks but just not often lor. my mom says scared cold drinks too "cool" for the womb but then again, i think, by the time the cold drink goes down, should be warmed up liao mah.

eeyore, maybe your mum can do confinement then thereafter, you take care of baby? cos i know confinement is very important for women after birth...must have sufficient rest and mums can help take care of baby. oh, take care of bb yourself? does that mean quit job and stay home?

ashleywcy, way to go! i have to remind hb to massage leh, but once i ask he will do, so i guess that's ok too lah. kekeke
