kea - i will feel a funny feeling in the pit of my stomach first (dunno how to describe the feeling also), then it will start to harden. Quite difficult to walk around when this happens, hv to walk slowly. If i go and lie down, it will go away.
Re : breastmilk for the 1st few days
How would we know if need to supplement with formula if our breastmilk not enuf? My colleague said better to standby some formula.
Re : MC and HL
My MC entitlement is 30 days, thik i have taken abt 20 days so far. Worried if i take somemore my boss will not be happy, as she is not understanding. Don't think my gynae can give HL. Thik HL only issued if we go hospital clinic itself and also depends on doc.

anyone has problem with the low amniotic water?
My gynae said that my water is low. i read from the website, it seems quite serious...
btw, how many movement should we expect from the baby? now my baby movement feel like she only strecthing inside, don't really feel the kicking..

Chelchel,
active baby shld move at least 10x from 9am-10pm. so we have to monitor between this timing whether bb move at least 10x ornot. if less than that, got to check with ur gynae.
violet,
my baby stretch more rather than kick too. coz i think lesser space for her to kick ard... do u count as 1 movement if she's stretching?

Simp,
it is to dry the cord of the baby...that little piece still hanging at the baby's belly button! must keep it dry and clean.
usually it is my CL who will do it for me...i just leave the cleaning of the baby cord to her...she will clean it after she shower for the baby!

Hi Geryl,
Re: Low amniotic water
ya, my gynae say also, if my water does not increase, she may induce me earlier, like 37/38 weeks.. so next week she will check my water level again.. hope it will going up.. she asked me to drink more water.
How about u, what the gynae ask u to do?
regarding the bed rest, dunno leh, she never say anything.. any idea what is the reason for bed rest?
I just afraid that the supply to the baby will be affected due to no amniotic support, that's y now want to keep monitor the baby movement..
Re: Baby movement
as Puffish mention, if the baby move in the 1st and 5th minutes, do you consider it as 2 movement? sometimes, if within 2-3hours,the baby don't move, I try to rub2 or knock2 my belly and the baby move, can it be counted too?

Chel,
the other time i am on bed rest for 3 wks due to the low amniotic water...gynae advise not to walk too much, drink more water, rest more and dun carry heavy things! if continue to do those things without enough rest...high risk of pre-term labour! so i took his advise and bed rest...i am much better now! but still monitoring my baby movement daily...any pain or discomfort must go see gynae. i'll got to stand by in my 37 wks onwards!

Mummies, just want to share something with you. I just bought a book What To Expect The First Year. Very good book I feel. Previously bought What To Expect When You Are Expecting. I bought it for $21 at MPH.

chelchel,
Bedrest is impt as when u lie down, more oxygen given to your baby for development and breathing. U dun have to be sleeping but need to rest on bed for bb and better for u too. Best position is lie on your left side followed by righr side.
My mum let me bathe only in afternoon between 12 and 2pm i think. I suppose i will clean myself with wet cloth using herbal bath since c-sec and bathe like 2 weeks later. I better tie my hair and clip them. I cannot imagine the smell of hair

Simp & geryl,
Thanks for the advise.. ok.. maybe I move too much.. cos, so far i still behave like not pregnant.. sometime I walk too fast until my friend keep asking me to slow down...
But actualy now I confused, my mum ask me to walk more so that it will be easier for me to deliver.. now I guess , with my condition now, can't follow her advised then..
