hi hi coral..
u might want to consider getting ur mum to switch to brown rice as it's very nutritious..i think i read somewhere that white rice when digested will give us 6 spoons of sugar..ask her to choose to eat more vege & fish ba..diff babies & mummies have diff sizes..as long as Charlotte is growing well, it's very impt..very glad to hear that she's 2.9kg & growing..u r now at ur 36th or 37th wks?have u started to fill any contraction so far?u might want to start to monitor them as well..aiyo..dun feel upset, ok?dun feel sad lah..try to divert ur attn to other things..like reading a book or find out more abt the full-mth celebration etc?at least u might feel better?is there anything that's worrying u?maybe u want to speak it out..i m sure when u share what u r thinking in ur mind, u might feel better & more relieved also..must try ur best to be happy..it's really very common for us to feel emotional this moment & irritated at the next moment..but i guess u shd be handling them much better than me, me only know how to throw tantrum..sigh..just quarreled with a stranger this afternoon..duno why..like cannot seems to control my anger..not gd..i must learn to keep my cool..

hi hi shirlin..
nice to hear from u leh...was updating the chart earlier then i thot u have popped..did ur gynae advise to induce u?when's ur next appt?why not chk out with ur gynae the best option?hope to hear gd news from u soon..cheers~

wendy,
tks for the update on Jenny.

superparanoid_mtb_selinaang · Oct 1, 2006

vivian,
my friend visited me yesterday and she mentioned she taking Fenerguek (dunno if spelling correct) pills from GNC to help wif milk supply. u might wanna try. i going to get it tmr after seeing PD. think babygrace mentioned before and it also comes in tea form but my friend says the tea type super bitter so she prefers the pills.

shir_shir · Oct 1, 2006

hihi wtan,

i din ask my gynae further after the last checkup on tues... she just ask me to wait until next tues for the next appt then decide there and then. of cos, if there's any "show", admit to hospital rightaway. so far, no show no signs... called her earlier to tell her abt the stomach upset. she said it's ok. no show means still early... just have to wait until tues to see how then.

hope that you get good news tmr too!

maybe you'll pop even earlier than me! all set yet?

wendytan · Oct 1, 2006

hi hi selina/vivian..
ya, i got hear from one of the friend whom has just given BM supply..seems like GNC has a very gd offer now..u might want to get ur hubby to go & chk it out..cheers~

hi hi shirlin..
at least u did get in touch with her earlier..probably wait till u see her this tue then see what she say ba...i will suggest u get the best option from ur gynae..hope u get to see ur baby VERY soon ahh..hmm..well..me seeing my gynae tmrw morn to see if i m gg for induction or c-sect on 3-Oct thou my EDD is 8th..although i do hope that i can do a natural one..but since i m already on leave starting 27-Sept..i guess a faster way will be better since i dun really want to go on waiting till the EDD..hope gynae will be ok with my decision ba..will update tmrw..very fast..tue is coming..cheers~

bunny75 · Oct 1, 2006

update on gynea visit
======================
went for my chk up on fri, gynea checked my cervic and ask me if i oredi had contractions. i told him i don feel any contractions or pain at all. den he told me i'm very "open" down there liao... 4-5cm dilated oredi. he actually suggested to admit me on tat nite, but both my hubby and myself were not prepared as we still hvnt finish hand over our work. i ask gynea if we can hold till cuming tues, he say he'd prefer me to be admitted on Mon instead. he gave me some tablet to control the cervic from dilating further and i hv to see him again on Monday morning.

I went back to office yest to quickly clear my work, and hubby oso manage to settle things for his work oredi. so most prob, tmr aft seeing gynea, i'll be admitted liao.

delphine · Oct 1, 2006

Hi Wendy,

Dont worry too much, your hubby will be with you when the time really comes,ya, although very much wish that hubby will be with us all the time.

Me too, now hubby is working, so everytime i pray hard that contractions will occur when hubby is around. hehe.. like as though i'm in control.

Dun worry too much, i'm sure once you have the signs and call your hubby, he will definiately ruch back immediately one.

remember must come in and update us your birth story ya once you have graduated!!

coralmarine · Oct 1, 2006

Wendy, I'm already 38wks, next wk will be 39wks. Dunno why, but I just feel very alone and lost. Every moment also want to cry. And Charlotte has been moving alot. I just feel so bad abt passing all these sad feelings to her. But I just can't help it. And hb got angry with me for being so depressed. But I just feel depress and want to cry lor. I've always told my Mumto switch to brown rice, but she wouldn't listen. But good thing she doesn't eat much rice anyway.

Aspialle, you can just click on my username in the forum and PM, the massage will be sent to my email address liao. Thank you for posting the pic on yahoo. So these are the items allowed?

Bunny, wish you a smooth delivery.

gemini · Oct 1, 2006

Thks gals for all ur best wishes. Me trying to keep a positive mind. I doubt i can sleep well tonite.

hi coolcoolmum & those mummies due soon, JIA YOU!

To those mummies that have delivered, a big congrats!

gemini · Oct 1, 2006

hi wendy,

will sms u tomorrow for my update, ok? thks.
u too, take it easy... time passes very fast one, u will have your bb in your arms soon too...

aspialle · Oct 1, 2006

hi coral
those items i pose on yahoo are the brands that u can look out for that are allowed for those with diebetics.

I understand wat ur going thru...now i worry a lot too so feel down always and my hb need to work till late so when im alone at home, feel lost too...esp when bb move so much that i feel painful at the vaginal area.

wendytan · Oct 1, 2006

hi hi delphine..
i guess i m just being bored at home ba..maybe when the baby is out..things will be dif lor...hope time pass faster for all of us at this very moment sop that we can be able to see our love seeds soon..cheers~

hi hi coral..
**sayang** dun cry ok...i can sense that u r really quite upset..charlotte will always there for u no matter wat happen, ok?dun get too upset...she wants u to be happy also so that she can concentrate to grow happy, relax & be excited to come out to meet u soon ahh..i guess it's really not easy to control our emotions at times..but do give it a little try to remind urself to stay happy & smiley at all times so that u wont be distracted into being upset, ok?and if u really want to cry to make u feel better, then tell urself u can only cry once, cry out liao then u might feel better but aft that cannot think of crying anymore..try to endure a little..u will see Charlotte very soon..hope u feel more relax soon ahh..try to divert ur attn to other stuff, ok?

my friend juz gave birth to a boy this morning at ard 3am.. and her bb is 4.03kg!!! i told her by the time she discharge, her bb can walk home liao! haha.. he's HUGE!

juz to share her birth story:

30/09

8pm - found that she has terrible backaches, but didn't think much as she always suffer from them.

10pm - discovered show, called gynae, gynae said wait and see how. went for a shower

11pm - waterbag burst, mild contractions started coming at intervals of 10mins.

01/10

12am - contractions getting stronger and shorter intervals, drove to hospital.

12.30am - in labour ward, pain still bearable therefore no anaesthetic

1am - did a cervix check and realise that already 9cm dilated!! but gynae not there yet. so hv to wait. but my friend said not that painful, still bearable (even at 9cm dilation)

1.45am - gynae finally arrived, pushed to delivery room and started pushing.

2.30am - pushed for 45mins but still no sign of bb crowning. bb's heartbeat started to decrease, showing that he's in distress so gynae suggested emergency c-section.

3.10am - bb is out, 4.03kg!!!

If only her bb is smaller, she would hv been able to deliver him naturally without epidural within 3hrs!

moonbaby · Oct 1, 2006

hi vivian
me blur and forgetful thz days..got mixed up with who's delivering at which hospital....paiseh

hi deedee
Thanks for the info. so 3rd floor is ok , 4th flr is no-no..I try to remember that ...

hi Coral
Pls cheer up! I read that a mom's temperament will influence the bb's temperament too. So it's beneficial to stay cheerful and think of things that make you smile.... I think you will find it easier when you tell yourself it's for the gd for yr bb.

deedee82 · Oct 2, 2006

Hello Coral,
wat's KPO ah?

Moonbaby,
they wont put u on that level i think.. now they giving away fruit baskets to us as a form of apology for inconvenience caused....

As for the milk supply, i guess the longan and red dates tea helped alot? been drinking only this tea and some soup since delivery. and milk supply has been increasing constantly...

coolcoolmum · Oct 2, 2006

hi ladies
i've just finished shower, waiting for hair to dry now. Did not spend any "er ren shi jie" with hubby today. spend the whole afternoon at mum's place then went to my fren's place to collect some toys as they are going overseas to work one week later! now waiting for hair to dry plus boiling the red dates drink.

I only hv jenny's and wendy's hp no, so i'll sms them after i deliver.

for those going to deliver, GOOD LUCK to u all!

see u ladies soon!!

vivian_phoebe · Oct 2, 2006

Hi Coral,
Dun feel depressed... Charlotte's weight is fine. BB too big also jialat... I think 3+ is just fine...
Dun worry too much. So many of us went thru induction too, and all went well with bb in our arms so dun worry abt it. Maybe few days more, Charlotte decided to come out leh?
You are a brave mummy so be strong for Charlotte.
Dun think abt depression. Get a few motherhood magazines to read or pick a book for read... do some cross stitches... you will be fine.
Charlotte moving a lot coz she bigger liao mah, so her movements are stronger for you to feel. She will be fine. I know you cannot help feeling depressed but you got to relax and try. How abt calling your friends to chitchat... dun cry gal...
If you need someone to talk to, you got my number...

Hi Selina,
I read from many books that they recommend wearing nursing bra for support. Good for mummies back and breast too... Yah lah, I also agree very troublesome... you see how lor...
I am already taking Fenugreek pills liao. Friend bought for me. But dun seems to make any diff for me. Why you need to get leh? I thot you got enuff "supply" so far?
Be careful of taking Fenugreek hor, the herb will affect you and your bb's blood sugar if taken a lot. Max take 6. Becoz of that, I cut down my intake liao. Taking 3 a day.

Hi Jenny,
CONGRATS!!!!

Hi Shirlin,
Just realise you are supposed to be earlier than me one leh... soon lah soon... everyday talk to your son and tell him to come out... I did so and it kinda work... JIA YOU!!!

Hi Bunny,
JIA YOU!!! Think yours will be a fast delivery...

Hi Wendy,
receiving blanket, 1 will do. Just to wrap bb when going home.

shir_shir · Oct 2, 2006

hihi vivian,

yaya.. suppose to be the 1st to pop out in oct thread... but here i am still browsing the thread with my boy still inside me! so envy of you mummies.. just cant wait any longer already. will see gynae tmr and go for induction if possible o/w will be c-sect liao.

coralmarine · Oct 2, 2006

Aspialle, Charlotte also moving alot, but Dr say that is assuring sign. So bear with the pain ba, and tell yourself it's a good thing.

Wendy, thanks for cheering me up. I think I'm depress partially due to the end of my job. First time in life jobless so feel very insecure and at a lost. Guess I'll have trouble becoming a full-time housewife. For I really hate to be financially dependent. But must try to straighten out my tots. This is only temporary, I'll find a job after delivery. Thanks for the Monica Chng joke. Poor gal, she prob will have lots of teasing in school. But I realise some people has funny name too but not made fun of. Like Fann Wong. Her name sounds and looks like Fan but nobody calls her a fan...so it really depends on whether pple want to make fun of you or not ba.

Esther, thank you for reminding the formula. I'll try to bear that in mind whenever I feel upset. Don't want my gal to end up being a cry baby. I keep apoplogising to her. Then told her, why don't you come out now. AFter you're out Mummy can cry all I want without worrrying abt affecting you.

Moonbaby, I'll try not to affect my gal's mood too. Thanks.

Dee Dee, KPO means being nosey. Kay Poh.

Vivian, thaks for the assurance. I also can't pinpoint my depression. Maybe it could be fear of what's going to happen during delivery, maybe due to the end of job, maybe HB just appear so steady that he's confident that all will go well. So I kinda feel alone having this sense of helplessness. Thanks, I'll distract myself or come in here to chat ba.

Shirlin, hope your baby will decide to come out soon.

aspialle · Oct 2, 2006

hi coral
me also jobless nw...although got uncertainty but im sure we can find gd opportunities after we give birth

Dun worie hor....just tat u may feel bored and blue being alone at home....so find something to do ba...play computer games or do some hse work or can read some books.

coralmarine · Oct 2, 2006

aspialle, thanks. Ya, in order to distract myself, i decide to cook lunch and dinner lor. Housework is the best way to distract ba. Maybe I lao2 lu4 ming4, nothing to do will start to hu2 si1 luan4 xiang3.

dorayaki · Oct 2, 2006

Hi Coral
Look on the brighter side of life! I'm also jobless now and I have twins coming on the way. HB will definitely have to work harder to support the family. But then again, think of the joy of receiving a new baby in your arms! Its well worth it. Many things will work out along the way, so take it one day at a time. So dun worry excessively now and affect your baby and yourself, okie? Since we are all going to be SAHM after delivery, can call, sms or email one another for support, okie? PM me if you need my contact no., ya?

storm · Oct 2, 2006

wtan
i read from other threads that mdm sadiah is experienced with c-section mums.. don't worry! give her a call if u'r interested.

estben · Oct 2, 2006

Haha Coral

Me too also jobless, cos want to be a SAHM initially dont know whether can cope or not.. after much consideration thought i want to grow with my son and achieve the man zhu gan of bringing him up. Perhaps u r right do something to keep your attention away, than will not have wild thinking. After birth can always bring our kids out for shopping and coffee session mah rite?

Infact here got a number of SAHM, even working mum we can always organise a playgroup for our little ones de.

Now all we can do is to look forward to our darling baby to pop

aspialle · Oct 2, 2006

Dorayaki and esther
hi duno there are so many jobless mum hehehe
we can bring bb out for tea one day and go shopping leh...hehe tink may only look for a job in March ba...rest for a while and BF bb first...who knows may decide to be SAHM permanently ....

coralmarine · Oct 2, 2006

dorayaki and esther, thank you for the positive notes. I'll look on the brighter side and not dwell on the sad things. Maybe I was partially affected by the vast no. of sick relatives and friends ba. One good friend down with lukeamia, one good fren mum with breast cancer, my MIL was being checked for breast cancer, my Mum blood sugar level too high, another frined just had operation on both knees, hb eyes down with infection...Aiyo, dunno why all happen at one go, so my heart also very unsettled.

This Fri., I'm meeting up with a group of freinds I meet in this forum but another thread. Their babies all born this year too. Many of them are currently SAHMs, some are btw job some working.

crystallized · Oct 2, 2006

hi ladies, i am back.

crystallized · Oct 2, 2006

i wanna tell u i got some kind of depression oso aft delivery, but i believed its not really depression, merely hormonal imbabalace and thankfully i am well aware and aft crying and talkg to my hb and close fren, i am better now. u muz try to cope menatally. more to come aft delivery.

but meanwhile i am enjoying the bonding session for BFG. its really really rewarding and EVERYONE muz really give it a try. its amazing how euphoric i felt when i 1st BF my baby. i simply cant describe the wonderful feeling and the way my baby looked at me. EVERYTHING is worth it, despite wat engorgement we hv! Keep it up gals!

will return wif more updates in a while. might hv to BF soon...

coralmarine · Oct 2, 2006

Crystallized, welcome back! Hehe, I'm quite bad with uploading pics here too. I always go to paintbrush to down size until can be posted.
Thanks for the advice. And I can sense that you really enjoy Motherhood. Hope to be in the same league soon.

estben · Oct 2, 2006

aspialle

coral

vivian_phoebe · Oct 2, 2006

Crystallized...
Finally you are back... missing you leh... was wondering today you will log in or not since you came home yesterday.. hee...

So happy to hear that your BFing is going so well... told you that you sure can make it...

JIA YOU!!!

Waiting for your bb's photo...

dorayaki · Oct 2, 2006

crystallized,
Glad to know you're enjoying yourself. Keep up the spirit!

aspialle,
Sure, we can meet up and share our motherhood and tai-tai-hood experience later on. Hee...

coral,
Dun think so much about things that are beyond our control. We do our best, and let God do the rest, okie? Focus on what we can do now. In fact, if you can stay happy and cheerful, the ppl around you will feel it and cheer up too. Enjoy your outing with your friends this Fri huh!

crystallized · Oct 2, 2006

hey ladies,
so happy to b back here.

wanted to post yest but i had juz discharged in the aftn and needed time to cope and yest i was hvg hormonal imbalance, was crying a few times. but am feeling much better tdy.

Oh yes, i find motherhood is enjoyable but of coz depends on how u look at it. some find waking up 4 baby in the middle of the nite tiresome and disturbing. i do agree it disrupts our sleep but i am so far coping well. baby slept wif us last nite (he oso slept in wif me during my hospital stay) and he woke up many times for feeding, prob coz milk hasnt came in and he was drinking colostrum all along, so not filling. i cant rem how many times i woke up and fed, dozed off. but i dun find it a chore! i am happy to wake up to feed him when he needs it, coz i am all he has for food.

so hope all the ladies here stay positive for BFG and my milk is kicking in soon!!! now can see milky colour when i squeeze my nipples... very happy to see the colour chg as it means my baby is suckling well!

Vivian, u can do it too.

dun give up latching Rhys. They juz need time and coaxing. i juz kept singing and talking to my baby while i BF him during daytime (dun sing in the nite time or talk alot to him as i dun wan him to confuse day and nite) and he will respond by suckling actively! That scene will make ur heart melt a thousand times and no matter wat pain u had to go thru to hv ur baby, ITS ALL WORTH IT!

hope u all dun find me so kua zhang, talk like its so wonderful but i really find BFG an amazing experience tt no mummies shld miss.

i will update my birth story later. CL asked me to go rest and wake 4 lunch in a while. see u gals later.

aspialle · Oct 2, 2006

hi crystallised
welcome back!!!

if ur pix too big can go "paint" to reduce the size and save it, or u can upload at yahoo photo which is free then paste the link here

can't wait to see the bb pix!
i go take lunch and join u all later

gemini · Oct 2, 2006

hi gals,

i'm back. my gynae did a cervix check and my cervix has not opened, thus he do not wan to induce me yet. He wants to see me again on wed to see whether my cervix has opened. hopefully, my bb has engaged by wed. Ouch, the cervix check is painful, worse than the Strep B test...
my bb heartbeat still remain a beat lower than the 15 beats.

gemini · Oct 2, 2006

hi wendy,

thks for the sms. hw was ur check up this am?
