Hi michelle :
Hope your 8 year old shibtzu is coping well . 8 yr old dog should be much more mature than a 1 yr old dog . My dog has the tendency to misbehave when he seeks attention and throwing his tantrum . Upon several trials , he seems ok but not too sure when the bb arrives . I am trying to image a nice picture where my dog is playing happily with my boy and my boy takes over the responsibility of bring the dog out as daily routine .. wow , what a nice picture and still a long way to go . I have to do all the ground work as a start .
Hi edskd :
I am not too sure does bb cires only when startled with sound . Some experiments indicate brain activities and according to the expert , some bbs show some form of curiosity when something alien ti them intrudes the womb including shinning strong lights on your tummy at the last trimester .
Thank you for the slumber bear guide . I will try to get one by this weekend . I will probably bring some essential oil to the hospital just in case I might be using a delivery ward which smells weird . Moreover , there will be a strong food smell if I am sharing my maternity ward especially during visiting hours . Hope the essential oil helps a little .
Hi ilovebabies :
Do share with us how your bb reacts to sound huh !! Probably winks at you !!
Hi dumpty :
I started throwing little by little into my bag
. Still short of nursery bra and disposable underware , haven't got them yet . I will probably include some magazines / mp3 / ear plugs and eye shades .
Hi elaine :
Every mom will give their child the best she could in the given circumstances and it does not have to be the same as the others . Just do what u think is best for you and your child .

Hi All :
I perspire a lot too . Initially I thought due to the weather and my excess weight , all of us are going through similar stages . I do feel some form of pain but did not really bother that much coz it goes off after a while , will be seeing my gynae this weekend and find out a little more details.
I left most of the heavy household to hubby including hanging the clothes and cleaning the toilets , I will do the ironing , mopping , dusting etc . This is the time where I enjoy my privileges being a mom . I think I will get hubby to learn how to feed / bath / change nappy from the confinement lady when the child arrives , just as backup when I am sick . Is important to share the load especially when both are working .
When you gals think that you should start your exercises ? Immediately after the confinement which is the second month ? I am more towards swimming and thinking of doing that from the second month onwards .
