nappy liner is not made of cloth. the texture is something like dried up baby wipes. if poo is not those watery type, then won't seep thru.
hmm...off hand can't think of anything that i will do differently leh.

morning ladies,
we'll just meet at the entrance of sakae sushi funan tomorrow night correct?
looking forward to the meeting
my tummy also gone bigger, very obvious to me as i can't zip up my same pair of pants (while i could on Sunday night). think im those who will expand at dramatic rate in 2nd trimester...
do u ladies feel 'heaviness' somewhere around the uterus/bladder area? i get this feeling from time to time, it's same feeling when im having my period..feels like something is there and may 'drop' out.
did ask my gynae during 1st tri, he said it's uterus expanding and it's normal, but since i have low lying placenta im more worried and cautious. yesterday the heavy and 'going to drop out' feeling was quite strong.
this morning, still ok..
i also shave/trim down there by 'feeling'.. can't see properly now.

morning ladies...
haven't post here in a while...was feeling very stressed out in office so thought of reading forum to clear my mind a bit
re: nappies,
i think i'm gonna use half cloth nappies + half pampers as well...my mom already made soem cloth nappies for me...she's gonna bring from indon as it is much cheaper there..
re: fridge to go
patsy, i don't really understand the usage....so after we pump milk then we put in fridge first right before putting in this fridge to go bag ? coz the fridge to go only maintains the coolness and not necessarily make the milk cold ? went to vivocity last night and saw a couple of their products...the baby bag one can only sustain up to 8 hours, while there are other types which can sustain up to 12 hours
re : big tummy
my tummy has definitely gotten bigger ! my husband also says...but he's also the type if i say my tummy big then he will say
"of course lah, you're pregnant !"...but same as stephie, i don't feel heavy, just big...in the morning still walk fast to catch the bus ! hehehe...
piggletail,
you can still wear pants with zipper !! mine definitely cannot fit anymore since a couple of weeks back !!

yea cheryl, so far only 2 times i got the seat from ppl, which means my tummy not as big yet, or perhaps i am not wearing maternity dress yet. there was time when i really cant tahan cuz leg so sore, and after alighting i sat at the bench for 10 minutes before i continued my journey! haha

hi ladies...
back from lunch..no one gave me seats on mrt still leh. but guess no choice, everytime when i take mrt/bus it's the super rush hr i'll be squashed at the door, very very far from any seats..
i can feel bb movements too. feels like a bubbling/farting feeling. bb wil get into action just prior to meal times--i think must be hungry already? keke

erm, i also dunno how to describe the feeling but i din get all the "feelings" in mytummy till around 19th week onwards. I asked my hubby whether it's the gas, intestines movement or whatever, but he said if they are I should have the "feelings" already since the beginning and not till 2nd trimester. So more or less i'm quite convinced it's the bb's movement la!
piglettail, u r not alone... i also dun have any luck with seats offering... tho one can tell that i am pregnant n not fat... still no seats....
tute, is it? i dun know leh... i discuss with snowbelle first... i am thinking of dropping by this sun to look see look see the area first....cos this month, i cant afford much night out as my gal having exam....

i think singaporeans quite practical one, only give up seats when it's confirmed pregnant women. so for those not wearing maternity clothes may not have much luck.
some more these days baby doll and loose tops are in fashion. even harder to tell if a lady is pregnant or not =P i guess it'll be different in another month or two when our tummies are seriously round =)

Offering of Seats
last time when i was pregnant with my girl, me too felt paiseh for standing in front of the passenger. so sometimes i rather stand away from pple who are seating. have encountered quite a few kind souls who offered their seats to me previously. some even walked a distance to reach out for me to take their seats. really appreciate their kind thougts. wonder if i'll have such luck this time round.

dorothy & tute, personally, I don't mind even if the yoga teacher is a relief one lah... we never attend the original teacher's class before, can't compare and I feel that relief teacher doesn't mean no good lor... think the relief teacher also teaching elsewhere but helping out now...
Btw, are we meeting this weekend for knitting?
I also started to feel something since last weekend... think should be bb movement... whenever I feel it, I dare not move, want to feel more
Think my tummy getting more obvious... last week got 2 ppl offered me seats even I'm not wearing maternity dress... somehow feel weird yet very happy

i wear maternity clothes no one thinks i'm pregnant. but when i wear tight fitting tops that hug and show my big tummy, then pple notice i'm pregnant.
you know, i find it very funny leh - men tend to be more sympathetic of preggie women than women who have been preggie before. should be the other way round right? since the women should know how tough it is to be preggie.
that's why i choose male gynae hahahahha....!!

esther - i think should be ok one if you do not take the supplements for just a few days. just make sure you eat enuff fruits adn veggies so that it provides u all the vitamins ba
garfield- the 2 who let up their seat for me are men.
cheryl- yea the best part is they stare at u , tummy, then their expression of feeling very unsure whether we are pregnant . hehe

i have both men and women giving up seats to me previously. quite balance. women who gave up seats usually are the younger ones. there was once where a middle age lady wanna give me her seat.

agree leh that men are more empathetic towards pregnant lady. that's what most pple say about male gynae. my gynae very chin chai with mc, everytime ask me want or not. i heard of gynaes who are very ngeow with mc, don't even give when asked for one. perhaps some women had a smooth and easy pregnancy hence they can't emphathise with preggie lady who are not that lucky as them.

one of men after giving seat to me, he got a seat next to me after the person beside me got up. guess good deeds gets repaid!

i think its easier for ppl to give up their mrt seats rather than on bus.
for me..sometimes, i put on a tired face, touch my tummy, keep breathing..hehehe..very kiasu one..but what to do...my trip very long..and i phobia of getting bus sick ..then have to get down and vomit

my gp not so nice leh. usually give me 1 day only. i remembered when i was pregnant last time and was having flu, i asked for 2 days' mc cos i don't want to take medication and prefer to rest to get well. so can tell your hubby not true that women can get 2 days mc automatically

haha stephie - good idea!!!
my two bosses are women. direct boss had kids young like 20+, she describes them as a walk through the park very easy. big boss had kid at 43, very siong. i find direct boss less sympathetic compared to big boss (especially when i was suffering from side effects of hormone medication).
men on the other hand dun judge us based on their own experiences (cos dun have mah). they hear fair share of easy + difficult pregnancies. so they tend to err on the side of caution and take our word when we tell them about pain or discomfort.

1st time is a young lady offered seat to me on MRT... 2nd time is a guy on the bus, very crowded. His reaction very cute leh... he was reading newspaper, then when he suddenly saw me, he jumped up and offered me his seat. I said no need, then he said pregnant must sit. Very considerate.
Sometimes when the clothes I wear not obvious to others that I'm pregnant, I'll purposely sayang my belly. coz I scared they pushed me around to snatch seats or enter leh.
