hong
wah, good! at least you know for sure it's not thyroid!

i can still walk about freely, i think. haha...so far so good (touch wood). but gynae did say cannot be doing strenuous stuff...and especially no rushing and big movements, basically must remain relaxed. hard to do that especially since i'm working and it's in a stressful environment. but no choice, gotta learn ;p
 


kin, ya, am glad too.

Hi missmoon,
I think ur gynae meant the placenta will separate from the womb, thus disengaging the oxygen supply to baby. Pls be extra careful &amp; try not to move around unnecessary. Try to relax more. Take care!! Btw, how big is ur baby now?
 
Hi Japepearl,
Long time never hear from u.I'm in my 28th week now. And I'm still seeing my gynae once a mth. I guess it depends on the gynae/clinic on the freq of the visit?
 
Missmoon,
Better be safe. Rest more. Take good care of yourself and baby.

Sandy,
It's time to get baby stuff ready. My doctor say better go shopping before I get too big.
happy.gif


Jazzy,
I get that throbbing feeling more often these 2 days...still wondering what it is. It felt more like hiccups last night.
 
Hi YB!
happy.gif


Yup, it has been awhile since I last posted.
happy.gif
We are all going to be mothers soon...so fast, hor?!
happy.gif
Like yourself, my DH also can hear out little BB HB by just putting his ear to my tummy. BTW, is your baby a Fendi Ahmad (very active and kick/move alot) or a ballerina (only make small movements)?

Take care!
 
Hi japepearl,
Haa..haa..I like ur description. My baby tends to be more like Fandi Ahmad. Move around A LOT!! And very vigouriously too. Sometimes her movements will distract me from my work. Very uncomfortable. Sometimes, I can even see my tummy moving/shaking from left to right, up &amp; down. Majiam like disco inside my tummy. So funny. How about you?

YB - Sounds like my little BB too! Think he is doing 2 shifts though - very active in the morning and late at nite till wee hours of the morning. But leh, during afternoons, he is asleep. Yup, can see the movements and the pokes too...lol.
happy.gif


jazzyjas -HI there! Am doing fine and yourself?
happy.gif
Wah, karate kicks ah? Good leh!
happy.gif


Poppy - What did your obgyn say?
 
Hello japepearl &amp; mummies! Just came back from gynae appt. BB weighing 1.1kg at 28 weeks. Considered average and gynae says right size for petite mummy, so still can target natural delivery. BB has already turned down, that's why sometimes when he does his karate kicks, my ribs hurt! He keeps yawning while we do the U/S, so adorable. Can't wait to hold him in my arms and sayang him.
happy.gif
 
Hi All Mummies,

Juz went for my checkup yesterday, I am now into my 30weeks, baby weighing ard 1.7kg. Nurses at my gynae are expectin my boy to come out in ard 5 weeks time.

I am getting more and more tired, experiencing more pain. Furthermore, still have to take care of my gals as my maid went on home leave. Very Very tired.
 
Hi,
I started Mdm Wong's Parentcraft class &amp; TMC last evening. Very crowded but also very interesting &amp; fun. Mdm Wong showed us the relaxation &amp; massage methods. Also briefly explained abt Placenta Previa &amp; Prenatal &amp; Postnatal Nutrition Myths.

At home, Hubby &amp; I used the methods that Mdm Wong taught to stimulate baby, &amp; baby really RESPONDED!! Amazing!!

Jazzyjas,
Do remember to take ur notes after class cos I see lots of ppl forgot to take.

Hi Japepearl,
My baby is active thru-out the day. A bit distracting @ times...Nowadays, I would be woken up early in the morning, desperate to grab some food. Must be baby getting hungry.
 
Hi Li May,
Please take care. Try not to over-exert yourself. Do rest more often.

How do ur nurses predict tat ur baby will pop in 5 weeks time? By then, u will be in 35weeks right? Is it consider pre-term or full-term?
 
YB, Poppy
thanks much
happy.gif
will definitely take your advice and take it easy for now...will have to have a chat wif my boss and see how to lighten my load some more :p

YB, not sure how big is bb now but he weighs around 1.2kg now...and m just into my 29th week. how about you? r u still on medication for thyroid?
 
Hi missmoon,
I'm in my 28wk now. Last checked, baby was only 600g at 26wk. Hopefully, by the next appt, baby will have a growth spurt. But I actually prefer a smaller baby cos will be easier to deliver then.

Ya, I'm still on my thyroid medication. Cannot stop yet. But my last blood test report shows that I'm already in the normal range. So am very happy.
 
hi japepearl, am fine.. bt with the usual aches here &amp; there. Hehe.. at times only, other times she is quiet (that i cant help wondering wat she is doing).
happy.gif


Lok, we r having the same EDD. My bb has already turn down too.
happy.gif
Bt my gynae said still not cfm this is the fixed position until later in the tri. Still has space to move ard.

YB, ok i must rem 2 take notes. Do i need to bring anythg?
We sent the cheque late, so later gonna call if the class has us in it.
Hmm.. the class sounds interesting.. bt i dunno who wd be taking our class.

missmoon, if u can take time off from work, take rest b4 the "big day". Just laze ard at home, u deserve a rest b4 bb comes.
happy.gif
 
YB,
Ur thyroid had stabilised! That is a great great news! Can u stop the medication now?

Li-May,
5 weeks time. so early? ur baby is in very gd weight!
 
YB >>> you are right my customary over but the after event mess is the $$ matter...
Me not intend to buy anything as my friend giving me some of her baby new and old clothes.
And maybe baby cot too..so is a blessing too.
>>>> Mummies so u all have started visiting gynea every 2 week from now??
Time really flies>> 3 more month or less we will see our child.
 
YB, that's great! heee, me too, doc cut down on my dosage liao. but i guess docs just wanna be sure and continue meds for now lah. 3rd tri liao, things should stabilise soon
happy.gif


hee, jazz, i plan to start clearing my leave a week before i m scheduled.
 
Lok>> u 28 wk already?? hmm i only 28wk next week, funny i think my gynea count my EDD wrongly.
I really have no ideal what to buy, clothes got ppl give, bottles free from subscription of motherhood magazine. baby cot also ppl giving. I think i left with buying pampers , cloth diapers ,breast pad and bags for storing breast milk.
Anyone wants to add to my list feel free to do so.
 
missmoon, tat's gd.
happy.gif


Hi MTBs,
Planning to get bb's thgs at one place (clothes, nappies, bottles etc..). Any suggestions where I sd go &amp; the prices r ok? Thanks!
happy.gif
 
Hi all,

Have you started on seeing your gynae every two weeks? My gynae says she will only see me very two weeks after the 32 weeks..

Have you confirmed your paediatrician yet? I have chosen Dr YY Yip at Gleneagles..anyone knows he's good?? The nurse just asked me so my husband and I just blur blur choose one....sigh

I think someone was asking about Yoga in the earlier message. How about Shyambala at Forum galleria? I go there and i think it's very good! It teaches u some stretching exercise and breathing techniques as well.
 
Hi July mummies,

Haven't logged in for some time now. How's everyone doing? I just came back from Taiwan recently. Realized that I can't walk for long without getting backaches and leg cramps. Am starting to experience heart burn too.

YB, congrats on your normal thyroid hormone levels! And don't worry about your weight gain, ok? Just remember that there's always me who put on more weight than you. My gynae just gave me the ultimatum that day, saying that I cannot gain any more weight from now on 'cos I've already put on more than 14 kg in all! And I almost failed my OGTT (passed by a mere 0.something units).

May, my gynae is also seeing my every 2 weeks after the 32nd week onwards.

To all mummies,
When will the baby turn downwards? My baby was found to be in an extended breech position when I went for the 3D ultrasound yesterday at 27 weeks.
 
YB, if I were to deliver my baby at 35 weeks, is considered pre-term. The nurses predicted that becoz my 1st gal came out at 35++weeks, 2nd gal came out at 36weeks, furthermore this is my 3rd one, hence confirm earlier.

Although my boy is ard 1.6kg, but not really gd weight, provided that within these 5 weeks, I have got to take lots of durians and beef, which I did for both my gals, which somehow worked.

My gynae also commented that my baby is already in head down position.
 
Hi jazzyjas,
No need to bring anything for TMC's class. Just wear comfy pants cos there's lots of stretching &amp; relaxation exercise. You will be seating on the floor, so try to find a seat next to the wall so that u can lean against the wall. Seat nearer to the front too, then u won't be blocked by the pillars.
Hmm...ur class not conducted by Mdm Wong??
 
Hi Hong,
Hmm...not yet. Doc said will wait till 1mth before EDD to decide wherther can go off medication in order to BF baby.

Hi Sandy,
Oh, the $$ issue can be quite fustrating. Especially when u r expecting a baby in the family soon. Expenses will definitely run high. I've also a lot of hand-downs from my sis, so it really helps a lot in terms of expenses.
So who's doing ur confinement? Ur mother or MIL? I'll be getting a confinment nanny from M'sia, recommended by my sis. Costs $1600. She'll cook, do marketing, general cleaning &amp; look after baby.
 
Hi may,
Dun worry, u can still change ur paediatrician in future if u find him/her not suitable. Dun have to die die stick to ur choice.

I just attended TMC's class last night &amp; Mdm Wond said some Yoga Instructors dun necessary have the skills &amp; experience to teach yoga to preggie. They may have yrs of experience teaching yoga, but not to pregnant women. So she quite skeptical about preggie going for yoga classes. She said has to really look properly b4 deciding to sign up for yoga classes.
 
Hi Sunshine,
Thx! Am hoping tat my thyroid will remain constant. I find that my appetite is reducing nowadays. Can't really eat much now. Nowadays I just eat 3 slices of wholemeal bread for brunch &amp; I'm full. Hopefully, my weight gain will slow down in the 3rd trimester. I'm weighing 55kg now. Already gained 10kg in total. During last visit, gynae didn't asked me to stop eating. He said he'll let me know if need to.
 
YB>> obviously my mother will do the confinement and take care of my baby when i return to work. Save $$ again. haha.
I give up hope on my husband family side.. all so practical and money minded. Brainless and Shallow... ( all education level is very low ) not even an N level )
Now i know why goverment always employ ppl that is of higher level education because they are thought to analyse matter and not by judging only on the surface.
 
Hi Li May,
Wat was ur 1st 2 children's weight when they were born? Since they were pre-term?
My baby is considered small to medium size. Other than durians (YUCKS!) &amp; beef, wat else should I eat to boost their weight?
 
Hi Sandy,
You may need to buy the following too:
Bath Tub &amp; Changing Mat

Hi Sandy,
So u will be staying over at ur parents's place during confinement? I also intend to leave my baby in my mum's care when I return back to work.

Sorry to hear that ur relationship with ur ILs are not well. U r just in the beginning of ur marriage, what's more u r staying wif them. I think it's better to start building ur relationship with them so that it'll be easier for u &amp; ur baby in future.
 
Hi jazzyjas,
I bought most of my baby stuff from Kiddy Palace &amp; Robinson's during sales period. Furthermore, if u r a member, there's further disc.
Clothings wise, most of the baby clothes in S'pore are over-priced. Thus I stocked up most when I holiday in Bangkok.
 
wow YB what a long list of shopping list....
I am now still staying with my parent, in fact from the second night of our customary.
Now just want to settle one thing at a time. Baby first, then go settle with my FIL about our housing problem.
 
jazzyjas, yup same EDD. But u delivering at Glen E, or else may end up neighbours in TMC. My gynae says unlikely to turn back up again and sure hope that's true.

Sandy, trust your gynae. Probably still correct cos your EDD is abt 1.5 weeks after me, so of cos I will reach 28th week earlier

Hi Sandy,
Yah, really got lots of stuff to stock up. I also haven't finished buying.
Oh, ur hubby &amp; u now staying at ur parents' place? Dun give yourself too much stress. Baby can sense our emotions.
 
Jazzy &amp; Japepearl,
I never call the clinic. I guess baby is kicking well. I get it everyday, sometimes twice a day.

Lok,
Your baby so cute
