yup, Dr Ong used the word "engaged" when i saw him at 34 wks. He press my tummy and then said "Ur bb's already engaged" and I said "wat? engaged oredi? is it normal for bb to be engaged now?" He said yes. You can ask him again to confirm wat he means by "down" in your case.
movement need not necome less cos it is just the head engaged and depends on how deeply engaged. My bb still moves a lot. The reason for decrease in movements that i read is more becos bb hv less space to move? I told Dr Ong last monday that my bb moves a lot, he said good!
Maybe ur bb move alot previously to make effort to turn down and now already turn down so he no need to move so much now.

doggiebb, I think so too! Taking the meds is better than delivering my small little bb early!
So ren3!
JLim, congrats for being able to go for natural birth!
BTW, to those that are waiting for Desitin BP, my friend still has 2 left, selling at $11 (not sure how much you have to pay if its BP). Interested pls let me know, I can collect from her and pass it along the Lakeside -> Woodlands MRT route.
dey, yes... last minute shopping is good for deliverying bb!!! Happy shopping!
CF, good news that you can go for natural birth
hahahah... sounds like Northpoint staff boh chap attitude... Not sure about the spicy stuff, but my other sis did deliver early after she ate curry fish head! Turn down might means head is downwards, might not mean engaged. You can use your bb's hiccups as a gauge I believe.
bohbiahah, me too want to go public bank, but have not called them up yet.. very lazy wahh..ur bb engaged so fast har..so what are the different stages of engagement?
ahahha..Calynn, I think better nag him now to let him he need to change those bad habits. Cos I don't want next time bb see papa so untidy baby also learn to leave things lying around then I die liao! I think alot of local men all big bbs lah... cos kena spoiled by their mothers...
Jen..ahhaha..so stretch marks only appear at the very end har..ehehehe
no mood to work! But still got 7 weeks to go!

bloom,
hee hee, think there r a lot of things that can go wrong for very premature babies, but everybody here is abt 33 wks liao, less complications bah.
cf chang,
the mayo clinic guide said that the spicy fd thing is still unproven, but if u really want an earlier delivery, "exercising" n stimulating the nipple will help. scientific reason is that semen has an enzyme similar to that which triggers birth n stimulating the nipple tricks the brain into thinking there's a bb suckling, so need to start contracting the uterus.
jen, bobianah,
argh, why u all discuss stretch marks?! mine has been there for 2 months, n they r still stretching!

Jen,
Tuesday I also took public transport, and I felt so stressed, hence today have to go thru again.... I took MRT at JE, I managed to get a seat, but the train was very packed. then I took a bus to my mum place, the bus was very packed too and I was standing at the reader. There was this fat man occupying almost 2 seats, but when he saw me, he shifted to make space for me to sit, who knows an aunty in front me took the seat and the rest of the ppl was like looking at me feeling stressed for me too.... I hate that feeling hence I guess that's the reason for my mood swing bah....

I didnt buy the clarins oil cos i too lazy too, thats why wondering if those who used it found it effective in preventing stretch marks. I just kena stretch marks...i thot wah...30+ weeks oredi no stretch marks, very heng, sure wont hv oredi...who knew, abt a week or so after that some stretch marks appeared!
But i didn't use any special cream la...just use Bodyshop Cocoa Butter.
Jen,
eeeewwww...hear ur description of "ba wu" really make me want to vomit liao. I oso more sensitive to smells.
bloom,
i read in the what to expect book (i think...or another book) that engagement ranges from scale of -5 to 5...I think...basically, just how deeply bb is engaged??

I also had problem finding this thread... it went missing, then I went for lunch, it just came back
My skin is also very very dry, not only at the tummy, but other parts also... like put moisturizer also no use
But my tummy really very dry, its like dry until can see the skin flaking out like that...eeeekks... every nite put moisturizer next morning same thing leh...Hopefully stretchmarks dun appear, cross fingers and toes....
Talking abt spicy food, ever since pregnant, I love spicy food. Cos I have bad gastric problem, I always tried to avoid spicy food, but now like cannot avoid leh, must have some chilli.... my colleagues were saying my girl girl is "Spice girl" or "La mei" Hope it won't cause contractions ah!!

Bobianah/MBB, i used the clarins oil in the morning after shower and the mustela cream at nite. I didn't shower after applyin the clarins oil. Dun think its necessary. I dun have any stretchmarks for both pregnancies. I heard whether got stretchmarks also depends on the elasticity of each individual. Regarding the public bank donation if deliver in private hosp can donate to public bank? what are the procedures/charges involved?
CF Chang, engaged is different from head down. For first pregnancy, the bb can get engaged weeks before the actual birth, once engaged you may feel discomfort when walking. For subsequent pregnancies, bb will be engaged only sometime before actual delivery. Engaged means bb in position for birth so unlikely will turn up again.
