confinement
============
since somehow considered parents doing confinement for me, i will eat n listen to wat they tell me to do as much as i can. the only thing i will not give in is anything negative abt bfg.

hb will definitely ask me to listen wan lor cos he dun wanna have dispute wif his ILs mah
 
Gd Morning

Coral, use the same story la, tell them you not feeling well, about to leave your mum house as you know that no parking after 7pm..... due to u feeling uncomfortable hubby fetch u down took less than 5mins... i think they will waive one lah. Pregnant mah things diff to predict.

Selina
Glad that you are fine le. Ya together we all must jia you jia you.

aspielle

Wei Kuan
So excited, hope to hear from you soon after your delivery, pray for u and baby everything soon soon li li.
 
Confinement
-------------------
MIL will do confinement for me. but already told hb tat he must help me. ask him become the 'zhuan hua tong'. i will stay at 1st floor, so ask hb to bring food for me to eat at my romm for rhe 1st few day. coz i heard not good to climb up & down after gave birth. am i rite?

selina,
yeah... eat more fish to replace beef. more healthy i guess.
my boy only try durian once. no response after eating. mayb fainted after the durian taste.

Wei Kuan
Im so SHOCK! According to the chart, u r only 36 week plus. OMG. Hopefully everything turns up fine.
uhoh.gif


Dont know why Im also getting very excited liao thou Im trying v hard to delay my delivery. Now really getting abit worried as what Vivian said, the more u want to delay the labour, the more it will come early. And after hearing koh and ilovebabygs experiences on pre-mature labour.

Jasmine,
It is true on the water retention thing? I started having it since 20 week plus and now it is getting worse, esp these few days. Now my fingers also pain pain, cant really grab things tightly.

Aspialla
U only gain abt 12kg so far, thot as long as less than 15kg is normal??

Selina,
I listen to ur suggestion, went to take beef hor fen 2 days ago. Will see how much week my bb gain this week after both durian and beef intake.
kao_smile.gif
 
Selina, they won't even allow you to have just one for taste?

I just have my double chocolate muffin. Try to eat as much as I want cos during confinement very cham, cos always can see people eat but can't eat.
 
coconut drink
------------------
i didnt take coconut dring else i'm 36wks ++ now. dunno lel, no intend to drink it coz scare too cooling.

coolcoolmum,

selina,
No No, I still have to stock up grocery wor hahaha... ya lor, ppl must be thinking this mad preggie woman dunno stock up so much stuff for wat.

coral,
Getting gan cheong and excited ah? Sekali you are next!
Me same as you. Pop whatever into my mouth whatever thing I want to eat now. If not confinement time cannot eat, very cham. Some food still gotta wait for 100 days later then can eat wor. I dun care the weight gain liao hahaha...

crystallized,
Haiz... weekend cannot do anything. I wanna go gai gai with my gal hahaha... Anyway with my gal around, very hard to do packing... I pack, she also helps me pack, the more she helps, the more messy it is! Si le, I have been dilly dally recently. Buck up buck up!!! Tonight go supermarket to stock up rice, oil, sauces etc hahaha... World War 3 coming!!
Actually hor, when I preggie with my No 1, I kena insomnia in my 1st and 3rd trimester. So this time, already very "good" for me to kena at the "almost the end" of the pregnancy. I have nothing more to complain!

Jasmine,
Of cos must wash private parts! Must wash frequently hor, if not wait kena infection. My mum said use warm water to wash, the wound will get well faster. But that time, I use normal temp water, directly from tap. I brush teeth, wash face with normal tap water. Elders said we should use those cooled water that is boiled before lah. Where got so eng to "stock up" so many water lah. My mum said is ok to use normal tap water. If you wanna bath, you can turn on heater and bath fast fast. Just make sure you dry yourself very dry and blow your hair to dry immediately. My mum said last time ppl boiled those water for brushing teeth, bath etc is because the water is from well. Well water got germs, thats why need to boil before use. Now no need le. By the way, you may like to note, though no bathing, but can still use warm water to wipe our body.
For the first few days, try not to climb stairs. And also avoid carry heavy stuff for at least 2 to 3 mths, c-section will need longer time.

Doggiemummy,
Considering you are carrying twins, the weight of the 2 bbs are considered quite good! Your day to pop is coming soon wor!
 
jasmine
my next apptm is this Sat. wah, u already 36 week liao, while i'm only completed my 34 week after today. hv been telling bb to hold till 37 week, maybe should tell him 38 week in case he naughty want to take 1 week discount.
lol.gif
 
doggies mummy.
wow..happy for u. seem tat ur bbs is growing well. tat's easy for u to carry both of them. one hand one bb. so nice!!

jenny,
ya lor. i'm thinking where got so 'eng' to boil water for me every morning for me to brush teeth...etc. some more hav to wash p.p frequently. i think do it on the quick way should b fine, hor?
no bian, i already swift frm 3rd floor to 2nd floor room. cant avoid when i came back frm hospital, i hav to climb to my room, rite? aftertat, maybe jz 'lock' myself inside the room lor.
really a lot of things to do for those mummies who stay alone. so much thing to stock up! better do it quickly hor? if not, no time liao.,...war 3 is coming. hehehe
 
It's jenny who mention some food can't eat till 100 days. I'm also curious to know what they are. Think I'll ask my CL to boil water else she too free since bb sleeping wiht me. I keep wanting to stock up food but hb keep saying when i deliver then he ask his mum to buy. But I think I better go buy first, cos I know my MIL very thrifty kind, the brands she buy and the brands I buy always different. Can we eat brown rice during confinement? I thinking brown rice should help reduce water retention and also healthier. I'm going to stock up blue dates too. The price of blue dates almost 5times of black dates, but no choice since I really want to bu my body, shall spend the money. (Both black and blue dates are good, but black dates more heaty, so decide to drink blue dates drink so that I won't get too heaty then fall ill.)
 
hi coral,
yeah... brown rice is healthy food & is gd to eat during confinement according to those confinement book. i'm eating brown rice once a while now. already decide & told MIL tat i will take brown rice during confinement period since they r eating tat too.
is the blue dates really good? but i never head about blue dates. where can we buy blue dates? jz boil it wif water or do wee need to add in other food? sorry...a bit 'sua ku ' lel...
 
Jasmine, I also didn't know abt blue dates until the other day my mum told me she sometimes actually use blue dates instead of black dates to make drink for me. So when I was at the medical hall the lady showed me both, they looked very similar. What I do during confinement is add blue dates, logan, ginger, red dates - to bu2 xue3(seedless) to boil and drink in place of plain water. (I never add any sugar as I think the dates and logan already sweet and also no point adding extra calories).
 
coral,
went to check out your blog. very nice and interesting.

tks for sharing on the blue dates. will go get it too ba cos my body is the heaty type.

jasmine is right. brown rice is good to take even during confinement. i will continue to take brown rice during my confinement too.
 
Jasmine, ya it's called lan zao. I check at Fu2 Hua2 medical hall, hei zao is $4.6/kg, lan zao $22/kg. If got time I'll check out si ma lu area's price since I'm working in Bugis. Will update you ladies if it's cheaper here.

Selina, thanks. Too bad i don't know how to format the template in blogspot to allow me to organise my blog like how you and Vivian do it in multiply. Mine's a very basic straightforward blog.
 


Jasmine,
I dun want to be like Weikuan leh, last nite post, this morning in labour...
I want, now I posting hor, later I post to you all that my waterbag just burst.. haa... immediate... 1st hand news somemore... haa...

Anyway, I having discomfort on my tummy now... think going to LS again... LS-ing so many times these days, until I think even if it is real contraction hor, I will also thot is tummyache becoz of LS liao... sigh...

Doggiemummy... take care leh... pack slowly now lah. Pack now better than rush later...

Selina,
