i'm feeling lethargic also, and definitely get tired more easily into the 3rd tri. hb does most of the housework but also less work for him now since my parents are helping out and my mom does all the cooking in the house. if not in the past i still do the cooking and he does the dishes. some time i'm thankful we have dogs, at least that force me to walk them every day, if not my tush may be glued to the sofa or bed.

Cin: I think asthma is hereditary, just like epilepsy and many medical conditions...nothing to do with drinking cold drinks during pregnancy. Can check with your gynae to confirm...

Xinyao: Saw the Farlin bathing net at BHG today - $11.45. I'm sure you can purchase it at kiddy palace. There are several brands that have the exact same thing. I bought mine only $8.90 from shopbug.com. However, it was worth it only because I ordered enough ($80) not to have to pay for delivery charges. If you are buying only one item, then cheaper to buy from the shops...

Sneaky, could you share with me Ah San's contact number at [email protected]? Thanks : )

Hi hi ladies, question time again

How many kg have you put on during this period? What is your pre-pregnant weight and current weight?

For me, I started off with 55.5kg and currently I am 64.5kg so total weight put on to date is 9 kg at 32 weeks. I hope I will not gain anymore weight if not very hard to shed off after birth. Anyway, my ideal weight would be 50kg hehe. Hope I can slim down after birth to 50kg instead of 55.5kg haha.

How about you ladies?

Hi Jete, decided to post the infor here in case others are interested too. Here are the questions I asked natal essentials in addition to what I already know from their website.

(1) How many dishes are there per meal? - 2 dishes (in microwavable containers) + 1 soup (in porcelein pot). Rice (one packet) and red dates tea (one flask about 350 ml) are complimentary. You can actually ask for more rice or tea at no extra charge.

(2) You have only displayed one set of menu for one week. Does it mean that the menu will be repeated for the 4 weeks? - Yes. Menu is repeated after each week.

(3) Are the dishes safe for mothers who are on total breastfeeding? - Yes. But you could request for less alcohol, or ginger, if you are concerned.

(4) What is the source of your ingredients (meats and vegetables)? - They are obtained from major local suppliers only and approved by AVA Singapore.

(5) What are the arrangements like for a trial meal? - $25 per meal (to a max of 2 trials only)

(6) How big are the portions? - Quite big. Actually each meal is enough for 2 persons. You will be able to gauge more clearly from the trial meal.

(7) In the event that I have to terminate the service midway, what is the refund policy like? - We will charge a $50 administrative fee and take it that each meal that you've taken is $28. The balance will be returned to you in a form of a cheque. Eg: if you wish to terminate after 5 days, your charges will be $50 + ($28 x 5), of which we will deduct from your package price and then return the balance to you.

(8) What are the delivery times? - Lunch is between 10:45 am to 1pm. Dinner is between 4:30pm to 7 pm.

(9) How do we return the porcelein pots and flasks? - They will be collected everyday when your meal is delivered. Just empty the remaining contents and give it a rinse before returning it to us.

(10) What if I do not take innards like liver or kidneys? - You can specify this in the order form. We will replace these with other meats.

Okie... think that's all i asked... the lady over the phone was very patient and pro in answering my questions. ;D Hope the food is good.

ytanhn,
So "qiao", the shifu your friend recommended was the one I used for my firstborn. I shd be going to him again this time.

Elaine,
I used to be 59kg, now 69kg. Gynae predicted I'll be abt 73-74kg when I deliver! Sigh...

hi all!
i was 54 before n 2 weeks ago was 58 at 30 wks. dunno now how heavy ley..

btw, recent;y experiencing sharp jabbing pains in pelvic area.. sometimes dull ache.. but not regular la.. is it a cause for concern or just just coz baby stretching and thus pressed down on my pelvis?

since i stopped taking the sabutamol 2 days ago the rashes have stopped developing, left only the scars from the previous breakout.. hoping they'll clear up soon.. but coz i'v e stopped taking the medicine, the contractions are back with a vengeance! esp now back to full work mode..need to stand up for up to 3 hours in a row when i have back to back classes. plus have to keep talking .. feel so breathless!

ytanhn, thanks for the additional info. on the shifu. Will also keep that in mind and then decide.

Hey, it looks like I'm the worst, but asked doc, he says it's okay leh. He says that as long as the bb is growing, he was 1.6kg at my 31 wk. And now I'm in my 33rd week. Looks like I must jia you, eat more to gain more weight. Hmm...maybe more durian for me.

Wondering when our first Aug mum will pop. Maybe Bliss, since she is going to be induced at 38 weeks. For those due in early Aug, it should be anytime already. The July thread is now discussing about breastfeeding and taking care of their babies. Very soon it will be us, so exciting!!

Elaine, I was 60kg before pregnancy, and 72.5kg as of a week ago. gynae says I'm gaining weight too fast - but hard to cut down as I'm constantly craving for carbohydrates...

Xue, Woof, I also have difficulty sleeping...always waking up at 4.30am and last night was the worst yet - first had to go toilet, then felt hungry & had to eat, then had stomachache etc etc. Couldn't get back to sleep at all...
