Petrina: U would be delivering @ gleneagles too right ? My friend who delivered there told me to get from hospital their FM in glass bottles to bring home in case emergency, u have FM available to feed bb no need to buy the tins n cant finish in 4 wks quite wasted. also get lotsas empty glass bottles from hospital for storing your EBM (expressed breast milk) cos glass btls safer for freezing and thawing.
 


diana: yes, glens.. my fren gave me super lots glass bottles.. frm her previous delivery... but i need to buy lids. i also will be requesting a fair bit to bring home.. non-opened FM.. to standby.

yasmin: really arh?? cause gynae so sure my bb will be march bb.. now i very scared. cause v part very pain.. though i m sitting on cushion recliner now...
 
Yasmin,
Can you email me your massage lady's contact? Is she good? [email protected] Thanks

Petrina,
Me too... even though I say I don't bring out the bamboo, I see the hot sun, I still bring it out :p Just that I left the lighter clothings on the furthest end of the bamboo so it's easier for me to carry.

My bb's head already down in week 30 or so... when's your next checkup? I had frequent BH since 2 weeks ago and when I told gynae about it last Fri, I was put on CTG test and given salbutamol.
 
Fei,

Shi En is nice name! I think i will use GA for my c-sec also, dun think i am that brave. Only scared no milk for my bb ger and BF not successful. Anyway my bb ger is in the breech position so i dun think she will engage hee.

I am seeing my gynae either this fri or next mon depending if my HB can come back from overseas to accompany me, if not my dad and mum will take me there.

I kinda scared now as march is drawing nearer, dun know when i need to go for c-sec, i hope to do it in april but really has to depend on bb and gynae. Faint.
 
Actually, glass bottles may not be suitable for freezing as they may crack under -C... but then again, I've used it for #2.. so far so good. But with the lugging from home to office and back home again, it's no joke, damn heavy so I switched to plastic bottles.
 
Reena
Got her contact from my cousin sis in law. She helped 'push' all her 3 kids to prevent pre mature birth which her Drs predicted, cos her body is weak and prone to pre mature. So she's skillful la. Planning to try her since no need to book her in advance and can stop in 1 or 2 sessions if not so good. Will email you her contact.
 
reena: i m almost 35wks now. i told gynae abt BH. but he say as at 34wks dun need to stop contractions liao leh... let natural.. but of course he prefers after 37wks..
maybe tats y he haven't put me on CTG machine yet bah..
i kenna shocked manz, juz now... now better liao.. but V part suddenly itchy.. weird manz.. got pokey feeling.. bb moving lesser abit also.. but no show.. no leak.. so still safe bah..
bb forever head down.. since dunno when...

diana: they may throw away the lids.. dunno y.. cause my fren's all no lids.. she used ziplog bag to contain.
 
Pet

Reena

No.. they dun charge.. u can request from them. Just tell them to give u some to take back. They will one. Anyway is the company sponsor ma.. not hospital.. i think.
 
Hi Pet, please update for me. BB's weight 2.4kg at 35th week. My weight gain is 11kg.

Gynae said my bb is engaged already but that doesn't mean will deliver soon. No wonder i always feel sharp pain at lower tummy everyday now.
 
<font color="aa00aa">kea,
u can get pureen pad at CK store. $6.95 per pax. cheap...but i din use pureen pad used my own overnite menses pad.
no need to bring the breast pump they will provide if necessary.

mummyboy,
hv u pack hosp bag liao?

babedude,
i also missed my bb kicking n moving while in my womb...hee...

mummies,
today as usual when to visited my bb, she's keep moving n while me n my MIL touching her...so cute.
but still cant survive without the oxygen tube. pray hard she will be strong n recover soon.</font>
 
hi everyone, today finally have time to sit in front of the laptop. will update later. Now super tited as was in hospital for half a day. My two oldest ones r in special ward and putting on weight. Youngest one is still in NICU as she is struggling to feed. Her gut was so stressed that it bled. I can't stop crying when i think about it. I must work very hard to produce milk for her.

Anyway, would really like to know who else has popped?
 
Received sms from abc.

Her gynae told her she will give birth within 48hr. Prob tonite or tmr morning admit when contraction. Alreadi 2-3cm dilation. bb very low. can feel bb head.
 
Kais
meaning she cant take in any milk?
Pls take care of yourself in order to tk care of them. I believe everything will be fine. U rest more before updating us. confinement period v.impt for u.
babe dude, emily and crystal popped.
babe dude and crystal same date as you and emily on 11th feb.
 
I used norm heavy/nite use pads during confinement and I find it good enough lor... Just bot a few packet of sofy nite pad with wings (35cm) fr Watson. $2.95 for 8 pcs.
 
Good to hear from babe_dude, Kais, and bbfion..

Kais and bbfion esp, take care! Actually, I feel abit the'heart ache' when you two talked about your babies who are still in NICU. Anyhow, they are survivors and with the love from their mummies and love ones they will do well. It's just a matter of time that before they are ready to be on their own.

ABC, take care!! Wah, my prediction is correct. :p I tot u will be next .. haha.. Good luck! No EPI right?!!! WOOHOO!
 
Melissa, what kinda arrangement if any do you have to make with HR / boss about maternity leave?

I also bought the sofy nite pad which cotton - seems longer than those maternity pads, and furthermore has wings.
 


Yasmin for your case, it's better to monitor closely. mmh, talking abt excessive movements from bb. how much is considered as excessive? My bb has been moving non-stop for the last 30 mins, like doing aerobic or dancing!
