jaspire,
You having BP for Lansinoh bags? Good good. I just collected my order from a BP thread. Good quality and value for money.
Just to share with all mummies here, in my previous pregnancy, I used to use Playtex liners which are good cos its thick, but it can't stand and must use rubber band. Moms-in-mind used to stock them but now no longer or its quite ex liao.
I heard some can get very cheap Avent disposable liners, but I must warn that they are not really meant for freezing, as its very thin. I tried before and had to double bag cos at times it may leak. So the cost works out to be about the same when you double bag it.
So far I've stocked up 4 boxes (100 pcs) of Lansinoh bags.

Oh yes, more info to share..for those planning to express when back to work, it's good to purchase the fridge-to-go bag from DIY shops. There's this model that looks like a mini fridge. It can store milk cool for up to 12hours, which is good esp if you need to run outdoors for appt. Just dump the whole bag into the freezer the night before to freeze it, next morning bring to work if there's a fridge, dump into fridge again. If no fridge, it can still withstand up to 12hrs.

jaspire,
heehee, i haven't used it. it looks ok, definitely beta than the avent one that my sis-in-law is using.
Eh..haha, based on my last breastfeeding, I need LOTS of bags. My whole empty freezer was filled with milk bags!
If u are diligent in letting ur baby suckle or express 3hrly, u can establish milk supply and stock up quite alot!

tks tracy.. my sis say the Avent one is not gd. There is one point where Avent recalls the bag. NOt sure what is wrong or wat. I dunno if i will hv so many milk or not. So in a dilemma how many bags to buy. Think will just buy 50pcs and see how. I read freezing milk will kill precious antibodies. But it is still better than formula milk. So really must be hardworking loh.

Piggy mummy, belly support is like a band but to be wear at above hips to support the big tummy. Usually only come in use during 3rd trimester. Last time my friend brought that cos her tummy was really huge, but she commented that it's kinda uncomfortable cos very warm to wear.
Sigh, me constipation still haven clear. Yesterday had 2 bananas, 1 papaya plus yakult, this morning 2 more bananas, like no movement like that leh. Prune juice no more liao, tonite must go buy. Sob sob, I feel so dirty cos never clear my bowels.

jaspire,
have u start using the belly support ? good or not?
piggy mummy,
it's suppose to support the belly, you can wear it before wearing your jeans. i saw this from the ang-mo pregnancy magazine. looks comfortable. sometimes, when i sit in car, especially on bumpy road, my tummy felt a little uncomfortable bouncing with the motion of the vehicle. so was just thinking if the belly support might help to give me and bb some security !
Kelcqi,
maybe u might feel lazy now, but when u have a child, maybe u might be different, perhaps it will come naturally ... re headache, i just sleep, put ice, better not la, you will really get tou feng one.

Hehe peace, you're rite. Maybe if baby really a gal. Come out I see other gals all pretty dressed up, I might join in the vainity contest. Hahaha... Last time when I was teaching, everyday I tied hair for my gals in class. So every evening, the gals all queue up for me to tied hair. Those mummies always very happy when they see me tied hair for their girls.
I think of headaches really flipped out. It's like totally zombie liao. Cannot think or do anything.

Kelcqi,
I will make my bedroom dark dark then jus go to sleep to get rid fo the headache.
Some bananas we can't eat right? I think its the Del Monte type we can't eat.
Have you tried fibre drink? My gynae gave me both fibre drink and stool softener. So far I only took fibre drink 2x. Stool softener I dare not try it, it looks yucky. Probably last resort..

Piggy mummy, no one warned me against banana leh. We cannot eat those ah? Papaya my gyne told me small slice can, but not alot. So I eat to relieve constipation loh.
I waiting for myself to diarrhoea leh.
No matter how I try to make myself diarrhoea, doesn't seem to work. Think later I go buy one big bottle of prune juice, see can clear or not. I feel so dirty and bloated now.
Now only 5.20pm, waiting to off work. Later go get tim-sum. Cravings.

Wah tracy, got stool softener one ah? Now anything to relieve constipation I'll try and take. I tried those orange fibre before. Dunno if I didn't drink enough water or wat, doesn't seem to work leh.
Yakult I also take liao, dunno why doesn't help in me going to poo. But it doesn't help in feeling better towards indigestion. Mayb the sweet taste and psychologically bah.
I know those super big bananas we cannot take, but small ones so far no one told me leh. Sigh.
Why so quiet in the forum today?

Peace, LOL. Me certainly not a "xian qi", but "liang mu" I not up to it yet lah. The little gals all very vain nowadays leh. Dunno issit because I was the only teacher there last time with long hair, my class girls all wanted to keep long hairs after I started teaching them. Their mummies buay tahan their girls so vain also. Everytime come and complaint. Tell me the girls choose their clothes(only wanna wear dress, like pink stuff etc), every morning pester them to tied hair even though they rushing for time. So funny...
Haha, I think I might become one of those mummies next time also. Esp if I have a girl. Me keep long hair, so confirm next time my girl will ended up having long hair also.

Kelcqi,
When my gynae prescribed me the fibre drink n stool softener, she told me: fibre drink for when you never poo for many days. stool softener, when you can poo but its very very hard n need to strain.
Hopefully your prune juice helped you. Doc did mention to me not too much prune too. Eh, you wouldn't wanna try the stool softener. I think it's quite gross tho i haven tried. Cos it's white and very very thick. Bleh!

hello everyone, I was detected with a heart-shaped uterus when i found out i was bleeding... my gynae uses ultrasound machine to determine the exact shape of my uterusgo. His advise it's almost 89% the baby will be in breech position and will have to be delivered by C-Sect. Any1 heard of heart-shaped uterus? I went in Google to check and seems like it was very common. No wonder I'm bleeding during my first trimester and now I'm on bed rest again. Haiz...

I'm on bed rest again... so can have more time to chat in here. No worries, jaspire... congrats again. I want this baby so much to give up now... so ultimately I maybe I will need to resign from work.

gynea advise was lots of bed rest... I've ample leave but ultimately it all depends on my uterus competency to hold onto my bb.. otherwise, i'll have to cut short my maternity leave after delivery or go for no-pay leave... either way also lose out.
