Oh...... Now left behind cereal, Chng's wife and ME! Good Luck littlepony!!!!
My checkup on Sat @ 38 weeks show my baby still not engaged leh. Haiz... ... Weight is 3 kg but my gynea seems really optimistic about having natural birth for me. Think I really have to sit and wait leh.
Btw, for the new mummies, I have a question on consumption of Yomeishu or DOM. Do you drink it directly when you BF? Can we? Or have to cook it?

Chng's Wife,
I c that you going for appt today too. Let's exchange info! I'm going to ask her about dilation, effacement, cord, placenta and amniotic fluid level. Hope I can remember when I get there!

thks 4 asking. i got ample supplies of disposable panties liao. let the other ladies hv it.
yah u muz Jia You lah. it will b over soon. plus looking at ur baby means everything is worth is rite?
Elaine
wld u like to consider Neo's Garden? its not halal but its the caterer i usually use. gd comments fr guests so far. www.neogarden.com.sg
had tried Elsie's Kitchen. they r not bad but personally i still prefer Neo Garden.
Wah, littlepony is 4cm dilated! think she will pop v soon!
dumpty
for DOM/Yomeishu consumption, if u wish to consume it directly, drink it after the last breastfeeding at nite. then BF ur baby 2 or 3 hrs later. it shld b fine. if u r really worried, use the wine to cook wif dishes. the alcohol wld hv evaporated.
ladies
juz to share, one of the Oct mummy had popped at 36 wks on 7 Sept!

Hi elaine and crystallized, thanx for the advice and tips
Joon, at least you are 1 week into confinement already. I'm still waiting for baby to engage and cervix to efface and dilate. Gotta do more squatting already since I'm only like 1.5 weeks away from my EDD only.
So how? Any news from littlepony? so excited for her
And messlisa and chng's wife, do update on your checkup leh. Since we look like to be the last few standing ones! Even Oct Mum overtook us already!

but ur gynae not worried though bb has not yet engaged rite? coz i read tt some babies wun engage until labour starts, so think its pretty normal? though i noe chances of this happening r greater for 2nd time mummies.
now everyone is getting really edgy and excited liao.
er, where is my seat ah? think its after vivian!

crystallized, this is my first also leh. My gynae did not say much except :"Wow your baby's head still above your pelvic bones leh". Then he'll rattle on to advice me on the signs of labour to look out for. In fact he did not raise any concerns on ageing placenta or low amniotic fluid etc. No cervix check either lorz... ...

look at it this way, if ur gynae is not worried, then perhaps there is oso no reason 4 u to get overly worried too.
ur placenta is aging & low amniotic fluid? but baby still growing rite? so meaning placenta still functioning quite well. i was diagnosed wif these 2 conditions at my check up several wks back. got worried oso. subsequent check up showed my water level went up so i was more assured.

All these babies look so cute. Can't wait to see what mine will look like.
Any of the waiting bench mummies notice that their tummy is sliding lower each day. I noticed that about mine. The budge seems to sack downwards now.
This weekend not so exciting as last weekend eh. Not so many stories of popping. Maybe more post will come in, in the next 2 days.
Me still checking for bloody show or mucuos plug everytime I go to the toilet.

crystallized, the thing is my gynae never mention so I dunno if he did check or not
Angeline, I'm also checking for all the symptoms when going toilet. But my tummy still very "high" leh. Even my sister commented that I'll probable wait another week or 2 since tummy still so high. I wonder if i'm going to be squeezed to the end of waiting bench or not
Actually I really hope to see my baby latest by next weekend lor. Very tired of being pregnant already plus seeing all those cute baby photos make me want to see mine.

wooot! wooot! wooot! Way to go, littlepony!!
dumpty, babyzucchini & angeline,
You know what? When I saw my bb, he looked EXACTLY like in one of the ultrascan pics my gynae printed for me! I think she printed one facial shot for us in his 32nd week and he looks EXACTLY the same! So if u have a facial ultrascan pic, that's an idea of what ur bb will look like

Chng's wife, envy you. Can see baby soon.
Me going for checkup tomorrow morning. Hope to get some news from gynea since I already start to have crampy feeling since last week. So hopefully its the cervix preparing for the delivery. everytime I walk more 'vigorously' will start to get more cramps. So maybe already dilated?
Joon, we do have a scan pix at WK32 & WK35 showing very clearly the face of our girl. Look very much like daddy lor. Can see nose, forehead, mouth. Only the eyes were big black holes.
Any of you still taking coconut drink? I am beginning to wonder if my cramps on Weds & Thu has anything to do with taking too many coconuts (1 a day) in the beginning of the week. Maybe it was too 'Liang'?

dumpty,
I''m not sure if it can be call help. I didn't get real labour, just the mense cramp feeling only. But maybe it was only due to overdose. Cos after returning to SGP on previous Sat, I had coconut on Sun, Mon & Tues. Then Tues night started to get the cramps. Quite uncomfortable for a few days, but this weekend (no more coconut) the crampy feeling seems to have eased up, only occasionally in the morning and late at night.

Hi gals,
Wow so many posts within a few days. Been busy with my gal and hardly got time to come in.
Btw got some question to ask all mums who delivered.It has been nearly 10 days after my delivery but I am still having pain down there, how long did it take you all to recover from the wound through normal delivery?
Also my breast milk supply has also been very slow...only managed to pump abt 30ml every 3 hrs..wonder if it is enough for my baby..Any good breast pump to recommend?
Below is a pic of my baby Chloe

Hi BabyJo,
Dr Yeo was recommended to me by my col, overall still okie, but I am sometimes quite frustrated as he is quite KS, always wanted me to do lots of test and I find his charges very exp, I have spent almost 2.5k on the consultation plus test excluding the delivery charges...and he also nver tell me abt my baby weight every session too..till the day he wanted to induce me then he told me bb estimated weight...
How abt u? Do u find him good?

Hi lichristin,
I gave birth on 2/9, 9 days ago and I'm still hurting down there too
I tore naturally and received some stitches. Today, had to go to the gynae and get some more painkillers
Did u get an episiotomy? I heard those take longer to heal. For me, lying down reduces the pain. Sitting or standing too long makes it worse. I would also like to know what we can do to speed up the healing!!!!! Anyone knows??
As for the breast pump, I'm using the Ameda pump and it's great so far. I think I'm lucky, I can pump at least 100ml from both boobs each time. Once I pumped 160ml!! I've been drinking lots - red date tea, brown rice tea, water, yoghurt drink, milo and I have soup every day too. Before each pump, I massage both boobs with a hot towel for abt 5-10 mins. Have u tried that? And I listen to lush99.5 while I pump (chill-out music) to keep relaxed. I heard the more relaxed u are, the easier it is for ur milk to flow. Some mummies take fenugreek tea/capsules to increase their milk flow. There're some BPs and some mummies selling... maybe u can take a look? Hope I haven't been too long-winded!

Angeline,
Gd luck for tomorrow's appt!
Well, when u pop, let us know whether ur bb really looks like ur hb or not!
Babyzucchini,
U're right... when u look at ur bb, u forget all the pain, the inconvenience, etc etc... I'm already thinking of no. 2!!
Dumpty,
Ur bb is shy!!
hee hee hee... soon, soon, u'll see him and then u must post a pic here for us to admire!
ilovebabies,
Yah, actually, my bath every 2 days is very good... the other day my hb let me eat 1 scoop of Ben & Jerry's ice-cream --> my reward for not bathing for 1 week!! hohohohoho... ur confinement almost over, I'm so happy for u!!!!!
Melissa,
Yay! Thursday! Congratulations in advance!
Edksd,
Yup, I sterilise everything that comes into contact with the BM. But only once a day. The other times, just rinse with warm water. Not necessary to sterilise after every pump coz it's not good for the parts. As for the valve, when putting it in or removing it, I try not to pull the V-shape part, just wiggle the round bit until it comes loose. I heard that's the most fragile bit of the pump, so better take care of it!!

lichristin, leg swollen is not small case....esp when ur swelling is very bad. Sometime swelling will make ur BP rise up suddenly. My BP was quite high last week, then he asked me to borrow a m/c to monitor daily. In the end, Ive to buy one from his clinic as I can't find someone to borrow....sian...
Sometime, i find his staff also abit KS.....will ask u to listen to doctor advice....

Hi lichristin,
No lah, not mountain turtle! Episiotomy is when the doc makes a cut 'down-there' instead of letting u tear naturally. Some say tearing naturally heals faster. Did ur doc cut u?
Yeah, I drink water
... my MIL says I'm not supposed to, but I'm so thirsty ALL THE TIME! Anyway, all my pregnancy books say we must drink lots of water! So when she's not around, I drink water... I've got a bottle hidden in my room too
. She says drinking water causes water retention, but docs say otherwise. When ur body is not getting enough water, it stores whatever it has thus causing water retention. If u drink enough, ur body won't see the need to store extra water, so u WON'T get water retention!!!!!
