crystalz,
is it water retention? nowadays find that it's not as easy playing the piano, get fatigue in the joints more easily. But so far still ok. just sometimes the ring become too tight, must remove

Hi, check with you ladies.. if delivery by C-section.. will we still bleed and need to wear maternity pad? Also when will it stop bleeding?
Last night dreamt of giving birth to my boy.. but weird dream coz dreamt that one of his hands was skinny and underdeveloped.. also dreamt that I breastfed him...
Getting nervous..
Higgledy, I'm also scared of getting stretch marks.. inspect my bump and thigh after showering daily to check and religiously apply oil...
For my butt, damage is done long ago prior to preggie.. I think I was not aware of the stretch marks there.. think I gained and lost weight too fast in a short span of time..
One thing I read, if we gain weight slowly, the skin will be given time to adjust so stretch marks will be minimised..

hi claire,
me oso when play piano, not agile liao and tired on my fingers. then night time i'd be more prone to numbness if i play piano that very evening. even though just for 10-15min...
hi cocoangel,
duno le... water retention tot usually would be around knees/ankle area. it may be ligaments loosening. it's just like your pelvic loosening. my gynae told me before your whole body would be producing relaxin. therefore, could it be it? may be you should call up n check with gynae if you feel alarmed...

Ya, during pregnancy, our bodies produce the hormone relaxin, which loosens our joints, making us even more prone to injury. I think that's how I strained my left wrist for no apparent reason. Was just merely holding on to my colleague for support for a few seconds then that evening wrist hurt like crazy..
phy
maybe your wrist pain is due to the carpal tunnel syndrome and not strain/sprain...for my #1, i also thot i had sprain my wrist. For no reason, wrist was painful on the very morning of my induction...i applied some tui na oil and in the end kena skin allergy....it was only much later that i knew of this syndrome caused by pregnancy
Carpal tunnel syndrome (natural remedies)
Why it happens
During pregnancy an increased supply of fluid to the extremities can cause swelling and pressure on the nerves and blood vessels which pass through the wrist canal, known as the carpal tunnel. As a result you may experience numbness, tingling, or pain in the hand and fingers and sometimes the arm. After pregnancy, the condition usually improves.

crystalz,
i dun experience joints loosening in my fingers.. but i get that feeling in my hips! when i try to turn myself over in bed, my hip joints and spine feel as if they are coming apart...it's probably part and parcel of pregnancy.. ligaments loosen to prepare for childbirth
etelle,
i also think stretch mark creams dun really work, i applied for my #1 and everything was well till i had bad rashes on my tummy. once i scratch, all the red lines came out. so this time, i dun bother applying..juz refrain from scratching the tummy

Ginger, thanks. Hopefully, my labour will be smooth and short despite induction. I read that you also go to Dr Thong at Raffles Hospital? Do you know what Raffles Hospital provides so I know what I need to pack into my hospital bag? Quite exciting....22 Nov only a month away or so..
missylan,
my sis has not ordered anything fr Gobi yet. She'll be popping by the shop, probably this weekend to get it so that we can taste it.
I am also quite tempted to get sweetestmoments recommended by Linda. Packaging and customised card looks cool! Anyone has any comments on their quality of cakes? Thanks!
regarding stiff and painful fingers, and painful wrists, I had all these symptoms since at least a month ago and it is getting worse. Now, it's painful the entire day! *faintz* gynae says it is due to water retention and should improve after delivery.

dodo,
my fren told me she tasted sweetest moments one very nice wor. somemore the one with angkookueh. speaking of which, i haven't tasted angkookueh since i came to singapore.
btw, water retention at wrist/hands, raise your hands above your shoulder and clench your fist, open & close. that would help to reduce.
recently i had a colleague whose bb fullmonth, she ordered from a home baker. it's really really cute cupcakes. It's marshmallow pig on top of chocolate and banana flavored cupcakes. (and the pig is damn cute). Tot this would be good idea for colleagues. probably be getting the boxes for close friends and relatives (not that we have many relatives in Sg). But then again, we don't have a car, and if we were to distribute the stuff, quite leceh. coz all my uncles stay in the west, one grand auntie in the central. So, may be for close friends/relatives, just have a small gathering somewhere la. aiya... still haven't decided oso...

My cousin is in her 38weeks (ending), coz she realise that bb movement is very minimal since ytd, so she brought forward her weekly appt n went to the Gynae, bb already engaged & Gynae sugguest she go hospital to monitor baby heartbeat... So she's now at the hospital n gave me a call, the nurse say she already having mild contraction n ask my cousin how come she cannot feel it. the nurse tell her when she is having e mild contractions then she felt it (it felt like baby stretching) so she din realise is contractions. anyway the nurse says that mild contraction can last for few days before delivering....

dodo,
I was attracted by Patissier and heard quite a number of good reviews, but too expensive cos for 6 small cakes, it cost up to $19. That is out liao...
Amy,
I remember going to TMC to check on bb's movement, then son very naughty, when on the bed and monitoring, he became very active again. Cost me $80+ for a warming up that bed. =.=
