(2006/07) JULY 2006 MTB

Jasline
Penguin, yes.. I'm one already. That day was sitting on the floor trying to put a dvd in the recorder then after that cannot get up, gonna shout for hb..ahahha.. feel so silly loh.. Walk also cannot walk fast, was like taking one step at a time..

Sandy
Yah, I have the same experience as you. At times really get quite piss off with Singaporeans.. Even going up the escalator in the morning.. even they see you preggie, still like pushing away.. come on, what's the hurry.. Giving up seats? At times, they saw preggie but just act like as if you are transparent.. Gosh!! It's so disappointing loh.. ;(
 


poppy
ya, the entire back sometimes feel very sore, but especially on lower back. walk too long, legs become heavy...sit too long, back ache...lie down cannot get comfortable position.

fruitee
ya...go toilet more frequent now...hopefully not as bad as first tri that time.

hmmm...usually feel heavier and clumsier from late afternoon onwards...now got water retention around ankles...

sandy, ya lor, have difficulty getting quality sleep...very interrupted...either cannot get comfy position or bb moving, or worse...woken up cos of leg cramp
 
lala,
Hmm... It does sound easier to monitor baby's movement by counting 10 times a day.

missmoon,
hehe.... same thoughts as you, nice to watch but at times quite scary and the feeling is quite uncomfortable too....

as for baby's movements, i think once you lied down and stop moving, baby will start to move liao... but again, like what you said, it does not happen all the time loh... also duno how. maybe we can adopt lala's gynae method to monitor.

Fruitee,
think i'm gaining more weight liao hence my legs cant carry me if i stand for a longer period...
 
Missmoon
Mine was like worst than 1st tri loh... every hr got to go pee pee... I think my bladder pai liao.. hahahh.. then go already havent sit down for a few mins, got feeling again.. then go again, little bit.. wah piang..

Gebbera
me too.. cant stand for long.. dun say walk la.. walk short distance, like catching for breath liao.. ahahh
 
Sandy Kerk and Fruitee,
Yep, I experience the same thing too. People nowadays simply just looked at you then continue to read or zz without giving up their seats. Find that Singaporeans are getting more individualists now. They don't mind donating like $10 for charity but unwilling to give up their comfort.
 
SEAT! yes yes pls dun bring out this issue else i have alot of complains to make. I have already give up on singaporean. Stime i stand infront of them and they still dare to look at u and then ignore u totally. PISS PISS PISS.....

Gebbera,
I do heard that some mummies will push out the piles. That is gd or bad?

Mummies,
do u get very sweaty at nite? I have to on my airon and fan at the sametime,. My hubby is freezing to death but i still tell him i am very warm I can still perspire.
 
Hmm... Most of the time, i was offered seats by others in the MRT but of course occassionally there are some who dont give up their seats to me too. I've seen some people upon seeing me, pretend to chit chat with their friends and pretend never see me. Some even turned their bodies away from my direction. Really pissed off by these people! I dont mind standing if it's a short distance but if long distance, we mummies sure will feel tired after standing for so long... Can even see our feets turned red after standing for so long.

Hong,
It's not a good thing to have piles. That is why when some mummies are pushing hard for baby to come out, they actually pushed the wrong direction (which is their anus) and push out piles instead.
I do perspire alot at nite even with air con or fan blowing directly at my direction. Could it be hormones changed? Or like some other people had said it's due to 2 in 1 (mother + baby) temperature causing us to feel hotter.
 
Gebbera,
I think preggie have higher temperature than others. Yah surprisingly we perspire alot at nite.
 
Hmm..perspire? I only feel hot at night especially if the air con not working well.
Last time need a sweater in office now no need..
Mummies, do u have problem when u pass motion? Do u need to push hard? I don't dare to push hard but it seem like i have no choice cos i simply don't come out easily..haiz
 
missmoon, ya, perhaps coz of the size so look short & stumpy now.. hee.. am wondering how many kg i have put on since 1mth ago.
Yest bb not very active, bt today afternoon qte active.. kept seeing a "pop up" here & there today.
happy.gif

Must drink more water 2 reduce water retention i read.

gebbera, some says its 10x within 30mins or an hr. Dunno which is correct. Must lie on the side? I usually did it lying on my back.

hong, i oso on the aircon & fan at the same time at night. Fan wd on timer an hr.. bt at times i got up 2 pee, i wd on back the fan, coz hot & stuffy i find.

Aching:-
I felt it too.. all over.... sometimes juz ached, my back, my pelvic joints.. abs etc.. haiz.. at nite when sleep, finding a position qte a "task".
 
Hi mummies!

Re: Seats on trains n buses

aiyah, ppl also neva give seat to me when im standing rite in front of them. There was once a China man even chop the seat beside him for his friend when the person sittin next to him alighted and all this while i'm actually standing rite in front of him ! so frustrating man...

Hi hong,

Im also perspiring profusely at nite nowadays, so definitely need a shower in the morn before i go work...
 
Jurong gal,
Guess wat. There are two incidents on the bus that pple actually snatching seat from me. I want to tell the pple on the bus or train. Dun be pai seh to give up their seat to us. All preggie will appreciate it very very much.

Perspiring - yes yes especially at nite. Especially under breast area, the perspire will gather there and i can feel it dripping down.
 
good morning MTBs,

I'm getting very worried, I'm still bleeding but yesterday went for checkup, gynae scanned, did internal examination and he dont see any blood at all, he even asked my hubby to take a look, it's clear! But somehow i've blood flowing out from that area leh..The strange part is he put his fingers in to check, the gloves are clear, no blood at all, and he thought i'm being paranoid, but when i went home, the flow starts again. I'm really puzzled, what's wrong with me?
 
Hello MTBs,

Regarding feeling hot and more perspiraton coz preggies have higher metabolic rate (by 20%). Me also switch on the air-con every nite to zz.

Initially I was still hopeful that people can give up their seats for me, after so many times of selfish encounter, me give up liao
sad.gif
 
Hi MTBs!

long time no chat... how's everyone doing?
more and more kan cheong.

me - still v unprepared. bag not pack, things not finish buying etc. :p
but bb is growing well.
happy.gif


Seats on MRT/BUS - oh, think i am one of the lucky ones. usually i an given seats leh.
happy.gif

maybe u gals dun look "preg" - mostly are small and petite size rite? so pple paiseh to give up seats incase u r not preg!
happy.gif
 
Hello MTBs,

I'm also feeling especially hot nowadays... in the past we still need quilts even with fan on... now find quilt troublesome with air-con...
 
Me also feeling extremely hot nowadays... even with aircon on, can still sweat. Now dun need the quilt liao.. think aircon on until like 20 degree, hb is curving like a ball liao.. whileas me, ok ley.. ahhaha
 
MTDT,
I am pretty big size with an obvious tummy leh.

Fruitee,
Same as my hubby. He said cannot tahan the cold.

Sleepy gardfield,
that is strange. U have any contraction or pain?
 
Hong
Think they dun have a choice... we are feeling way too hot liao.. bo pian one.. if not sweating like ah siao.. even now bathe in cold water come out only.. sweat liao.. cannot imagine when we have our confinment.. Gosh!!
 
Fruitee,
i am not scaring u that is quite mild. Cos during confinement u will perspired none stop and even after bath is no use.

We have to use hot water for bathing so while wiping dry u realised ur started to persipre again and by the time u finished dress u are wet again.
 
Hong,

I've lots of contractions since week 22. But my gynae scanned quite thoroughly and also did internal examination, even asked my hubby to take a look, everything looks fine, he also dont know where the blood comes from. It doesn't sound like Urinary tract infection too cos my urine test was ok.
 
Fruitee, Hong,

We will sure perspire alot becos of the confinement food that we take... Dishes with rice wine, ginger, DOM, hot red dates drinks, etc.... Heard we have to eat the food once they are ready. Cannot leave it on the table for coolng as it will caused wind in our stomach which is no good.
 
Hong,
I also feel very sweaty even with the air-con on. Yah, under the breast especially, my bra all wet
sad.gif


Sleepy Garfield,
Scary, could it be piles?? you take care ok? monitor closely.

Fruitee,
You're right, come out of the shower already start to perspire liao!! I think it'll be worst during confinement since we need to bathe in warm water...must be quite hot type...jiaklat!
 
hi all MTBs
i've been feeling very warm/hot since 2nd tri...now getting worse. ya lor, perspire even in aircon room! imagine walking outside under hot sun.

imagine during confinement wif all that heaty food! somemore, i was told that must wear slippers (cannot touch cold floor) and long pants/sleeves - cos scared wind go in? alamak!
 
poppy,

No , it's not piles cos i'm very sure the bleeding comes from the vaginal not the anus. When i wipe, i can see blood on the tissue, it's the front part of the vaginal not the part nearer to the anus.
Also dont know wat's wrong, gynae keep saying nothing wrong, but why bleed? Very pek chek!
 
sleepy garfield, can u go perster your gynae.. if nothign is wrong then why is there blood? how can just say dunno.. at least m ust hav an explanation or something.. cannot risk anything at this stage!
 
misaryeo

i've been pestering for 1 whole week oredi, that's why he decided to see me yesterday, i started to bleed last sat nite, called him on monday, he said since after 2 days nothing happen,i shd be fine, then the bleeding can't stop, and after i told him i've lots of contractions, he decided to see me, and he did a thorough scan, internal examination, urine test, take samples of my discharge to read under microscope, all didnt show any blood stains, he must have thot that i'm mad, keep saying i'm bleeding but there's no blood, even my hubby starts to get suspicious, but when i come home, there's blood, i showed it to my hubby and he finally believe me. I called gynae again, he said yesterday checked so thoroughly, there's no blood in the vaginal, bb growing well, i don't hv to worry at all..how can i not worry rite?
 
Same here! Feeling very warm nowaday.

During lunch time try to go to those food court with air-con. Try to avoid go to those non-aircon one. If not, sure will perspire alot while eating my lunch. Very pekchek cos i seldom perspire cos I dont really feel warm before pregnant..

Imagine we need to do the confinement during this hot weather....FAINT! But if perspire alot can lose more weights..then i dont mind la..heehee!

SleepyGarfield,
Aiyo! So worry for u. Hopefully nothing wrong man...
 
sleepy garfield.
U make me worry for u. U wanna seek 2nd opinion?
May be u walk too much?

Gebbera,
with confinement food is even worse... I dun want to think abt it now.
 
Hi Sleepy Garfield,
If ur gynae still dun believe you, next time put a pantyliner or sanitary pad & show it to him/her. Good doc dun just dismiss any signs & symtoms. You may wish to seek a 2nd or 3rd opinion just to be sure.
We are all already in 3rd trimester, must hang on!!
 
Hi mommies

I am a Jan 06 mum. I had gestational diabetics during my pregnancy and now I have some left over test stips and lancets. If you also have GD and are using the same test kit as me, I am letting them go at $20 (inclusive of postage). There are 38 strips and 6 lancets. Interested parties please PM me as I do not check this thread.
424639.jpg
 
sleepyG - I also feel that you should get 2nd opinion leh! Better to be safe than sorry, you know. Also hor, if can, keep the pad (the one with blood on it) as proof.

missmoon - Yup, very hot these days!

jurong girl - With regards to the seats thingy, sometimes I will get some kind souls (mostly guys) which will get up and offer me their seats. The only woman who did this kind gesture was an ang moh girl. The rest, they just stare or pretend to go and sleep.

MTBs, we are all so near liao!!! So, kan cheong!!!
Have a wonderful weekend!
 
Hi, All mummies.

I have juz been been discharged today, was admitted to Mt A on thursday afternoon coz of contractions.
Presently, I am oni 33 weeks, my gynae was suggesting that if the pain goes on, he wants me to go for c-section.
I told him as long my cervix does not dilate, I will not choose for deliery. I will try to tolerate as long as I could, since I have already 'tahan' so long for the contractions liao
 
Girls...
Darn "sueh"...I think my computer kena virus or corrupted. All my Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, etc) including WordPad kena virus/corrupted. All you can find is . When I did a virus scan - I CANNOT find any virus. I also did scan disk...nothing also. Darn "sueh"...haiz!!!

So, I have come up with something simple and very basic.

Li May - *hugs* So sorry to hear about your hospitalization. Hope that everything is A-OK and you can do normal delivery. Sending you lots of +++ vibes!!!
 
Hi Li May,
Oh dear!! Please do take care. Is ur contractions VERY painful?? If there's strong contractions but cervic never dilate, will it harm the baby? Why does ur doc wants u to delivery baby so soon?

Hi Japepearl,
Thx for ur effort!!
 
Hi MTBs,
Went to see gynae last week. Have put on ard 3kg within the past mth.

missmoon, regd the "It wd tighten (as tho' pushing against tummy), tummy pointed then relax", gynae said sometimes it cd be bb or contractions. Gynae din ask me to count bb's kicking. Wd be seeing him in 2wks' time.

Actually i cant imagine how 2 go thru the confinement period.. i cant stand heat either.. Ya, must wear slippers at home to keep feet warm.. avoid water when possible.

sleepy garfield, perhaps u mite want to seek a 2nd opinion? U can show ur gynae the "proof". Hope u wd be fine soon.

japepearl, thanks for the updating.

Hi MTBs,

Just wondering if you guys are all seeing your obgyn once in every 2 weeks already? Am doing just that. Heard from my obgyn that soon I will be seeing him once a week liao. Wah...its going to be soon liao...our little ones will be in our arms SOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!
 
lol..jazzyjas, guess we posted around the same time. You are most welcome! No matter how teruk, we must "piah" during the confinement period so that we can be back to our healthy old self.
happy.gif
 
jazzyjas
thanks much for the info. so it cld be contractions...i wonder which is which whenever we feel that.

as for confinement...i told my mom there's no way i cannot dun bathe. she said ishe'll get the herbs from the chinese medical hall, so i can still bathe and wash hair (but must blow dry). hehe...i also intend to bathe when in hospital.
 
Thanks,All Mummies, for all your concern.

Me now like medicine box, every 6 hrs interval muz take medication, can only lie down on the bed and rest.Coz nurses warned my hubby if I were to walk too much, might induce early labour.

I still wanna watch "Da Vinci Code" and "X Men" b4 I deliver.Hahahhaha....

Now, I am already instructing my maid to wash up my boy boy clothes, gonna prepare maternity bag liao.
 
hi jazzyjas, i'm just curious how many weeks is ur bb now? putting on 3 kg within a mth at our stage is it normal? during my last visit to the gynae, he advise me to go for another detail scan cos he is afraid my bb is to big for me.. he estimated my bb to be abt 1.7kg at 29th week. so very curious how big ur bb is now.
 
Morning all MTBs,

It's been long long time since I'd stepped in here. Had been busy shopping at the marketplace and busy organizing bulk purchases too. Oooh.... Bankrupt!

Hi Misaryeo,
I'm now at my 31st week and my baby is at 1.5kg. Head normal size. But Gynae told me, baby's stomach smaller than normal. Am worried now whether it's ok or not.

Hi Li May,
Read about what happened to you. Rest well and stay in bed. Take care ok? Wow, washing boy boy clothes liao. My new boy's clothes are starting to arrive in bits and pieces everywhere. I had been busy going around to collect. Think I also better start washing the clothes soon.

Missmoon,
You have such a nice mum. During my first confinement, my mother don't even allow me to shower everyday and if I ever did that, she'll show me a black face for the rest of the day. She always claim she don't understand what I'm thinking.

Jadepearl,
I'm quite excited now, thinking of my impending second boy. Now wondering who he'll look like. Will he look like his brother? So facinating that 2 beings (me and hubby) can actually mould so many different looks baby.

YB,
Last year, during my delivery, I had contractions but then, the cervix never dilate, and my waterbag never burst. I think, as long as the waterbag is still intact, then it's ok for the contraction to drag. But once waterbag burst, baby must come out asap as they have no more oxygen there. I was finally induced after 15 hours into my labour. Luckily, baby came out 8 hours later which to my Gynae, is still at the safe stage. No need to C-section.

Hong,
How are you now? Everything going on fine?

SleepyGarfield,
Are you ok? I agree that you should seek second opinion. So worried for you.

Jurong Gal,
I also faced with problem when ppl don't bother to give up seat to me even though I'm standing right in front of them. There was once, I boarded the bus with another lady, whom is also pregnant. But she looked so tired even though her tummy looked so much smaller than mine. I was offered seat by this nice uncle but seeing that no one else offered the other lady a seat, I just guide her by her hand to the seat and she smiled gratefully at me. It was then, the bus uncle actually shouted at a student whom was sitting at the seat which has the sign, to give way to old and preggies. That student was feigning studying. After the uncle shouted, the student got so angry that she alighted the bus immediately, but of course, with her face furiously blushing. Tsk, the uncle shouted this out actually - (That young lady who is hogging the give way seat, pls be considerate and stand up and give way to the pregnant lady! You will be pregnant one day, don't let me bump into you again. I make sure you got no seat) Quite nasty, but it speaks what I'm thinking at that moment. Nowadays, young ladies are getting more and more inconsiderate. They will only understand how we preggies feel after they are pregnant themselves bah. Haiz..... Society is really changing.
 


Thanks, Angeline.

I am actually supposed to collect back my clothings that I have passed ard. But it juz seems that I could not get it back. Haiz....

Hence, spent quite a bomb on this 3rd kid. Rite now, I am trying to sell away the things that I dun need.
