(2008/05) May 2008

I was on MC ytd, have been feeling pain at my lower tummy area. It kept coming on & off. So, I went to consult the gynae and did urine test. In the end, gynae said nothing to worry, most prob just ligament stretch.

Jaspire,

Pls assist to update.
BB's wt @ 31 weeks: 1.6kg
Mummy's wt gain: 15kg -_-"
 


Jen,
haha, of course i took epi! I tahan for 2hours then decided to go for epi. Tried the gas mask but i was so agitated i threw the gas mask aside and kept complaining it smells like exhaust fume. :p

Ya, i also think the baby is pushing downwards man...my baby turned head down already at last appt.

Moony,
same same. My bladder fulls super full very fast. I can pee at 3am like alot, then 4am pee again and also alot!

RE: DIAPERS

I have bought some diapers from Mamy Poko and Pampers. The size I bought is NB(Newborn). I'm planning to use those for night-time. I've discussed with MIL and we'll be using cloth diapers in the daytime. I gave bought diaper covers and nappy liners. NOTE: My MIL said that baby will feel quite hot if they wear the diaper cover and we'll not be able to check if the diapers is wet unless to put our fingers in to feel. If I scare baby might wet her bed, we can just lay a mat below her.

RE: HERBS FOR CONFINEMENT
I just bought the herbs for the confinement. Wah... All the herbs cost close to $400. *Faint* Somemore, I din buy the top quality, bought the mid-range and used the member price. Half of the price was contributed by the ginseng (bao sheng &amp; kao li sheng). The guy at the herbs shop still asked me to buy ren sheng. I joked with him saying that if you are giving me as present, I'll take. If not, I no $ to pay.

piggy mummy,

I'm not sure abt the milk supply. I have notified my CL that I'll be BF. The list of herbs was provided by my CL for me to buy. I still hv not buy the wine (huang jiu) for cooking. She gave me an address that sells self-made wine, which is at Bt Batok.

Tracy,
which hospital did u give birth at last time?
 
I'm quite worried as I'm still experiencing the pain (though my gynae told me that it's contraction due to ligament stretch).

I have started to pack my bag for hospital. The stuff I have packed are:
-PJ
-maternity pads
-disposable panties
-toiletries
-nursing bra
-jacket
-a set of clothes for discharge
Pending Items
-ROM cert
-spare hp batt
-camera

I wonder if there's anything that I miss out.

Muzicgal, haiz. Take things at a step when it comes bah. I had a bad nite last nite. So pissed off. All the way from I reach home to the time I slept. Tell you again next time when I see you on MSN. Suddenly I have those feelings of running away from everything even my own baby after I give birth. When I think of what's happening next, I can't help feeling so unhappy.

Icebaby, I haven work out any budget how much I should be spending leh. Like Piggymummy, I will not be working for at least 6 mths.

Actually what are the kinda herbs we need to prepare for our confinement? What issit that we need to eat that time huh? Till now I dunno what I need to get also. And I dunno when my bb going to come out, my tummy also low leh. In fact my gynea commented that my bb's head is very low down. I'm so scared that my case will be like my friends'. Her bb head so low that it burst her water bag.
 
gina,

hosp bag,

which hosp u stay? if TMC, no need bring bb stuff, but i prepare too (just in case).

things miss out--

1.ur hb toiletries n clothes, jacket
2.bathroom slipper
3.socks (to wear at delivery ward)
 
Pooh,
I also had this suan suan feeling, and the sensation of wanting to pang sai. Is this sign of wanting to give birth ah ? Most of the time I visit gynae, bb's position is head down, legs up, so engage means the head is down and heading towards the birth canal ? Nowsdays, my tummy tightening goes up quite high, like the gastric position, and area at the belly button will become flat lidat. That tightening feeling make me feel breathless.

These days I cannot walk fast, if I do, I can feel the weight at my lower abdomen.

I also get up so many times to pee at night, each time i pee, there are quite a good amount of urine one, until 4am, still like that one wor, dunno where the urine come from, I stop drink after 10pm.
 
peace,

ard what time u going to bed?coz i stop drinking water after dinner leh, ard 7 plus, then sleep ard 10 plus..may b u try to drink more water on day time n stop drinking it after dinner?

bb head down

i think bb head down doesnt mean engage..
 
wah! u all v fast le.

postings are fast and even keep track of how much has been spent are fast lo!

hehehe.

u all so fast know wat herbs to buy liao ah? hmm..mayb this weekend must ask my mum wat herbs she needs then raw material for confinement how much then i can set aside...

scary lo...the amt u all state is so much! havent count in shopping etc etc rite?
 
ladies, i heard from my neighbour whose boy is oredi gng to 2 yrs old tat during confinement, if we are breastfeeding, better dun eat too much ginger and wine if we are breastfeeding. ginger will cause bb to hv jandice and wine is nt good for bb brain lor.

then the doc talk i attend mention tat for the zhu jiao chu, best take 12 days after we delivery.
 
diana,

ya..heard the same for ginger from my mum but wine sld be ok as long as its boiled right coz it the vapour will evaporate during cooking mah..unless direct drink right?
 
pooh,

eh..u taking how many bedders?
Are u sure everything can claim from medisave and no need to pay a single cash amount? That's almost impossible leh.

Kelcqi,

I also dunno what herbs to prepare. I only know I eating very simple with alot of ginger + sesami oil. If can manage to breastfeed, then less ginger. Hahaha

I guess maybe u try budgeting abit lor. Unless u already set aside the amount.

For me, I set aside hospital cash payment to be $1k for 3D2N, 4 bedder (hopefully get free upgrade to 2 bedder). The amount shld be lesser if nothing goes wrong. Hope also that I do not need epidural..cos epidural cost a few hundred more.

Girls,

Water. I know we try not to drink so much. But must drink also to prevent sore throat okay. Once get sore throat..that's harder to cure. =(
 
peace
like wat piggy mummy says.. head down doesn't mean engaged.. but it may occurs as early as 33-34 weeks.. if engaged, it means ur bb head is "kiap" in between ur pelvic bones.. but usually it happens ard 37-38 weeks..
for both my pregnancies, my bbs heads only got engaged after my water bag burst
 
pooh,

oh good. start frm 6thmonth i drinking coffee again. now afternoon time, feel sleepy, feel like want to drink coffee again.. jia lat..
 
wah if breastfeed can no need to eat so much ginger ar?? haha.. yeah!! i can tell my MIL n mummy dis so dat i can avoid eating ginger.. cos since day 1 i preg they keep tellin mi muz eat ginger but i dun dare.. haha.. nw gt 'excuse' liao.. ;P

ya i noe bb's head down doesn't mean engage.. so hopefully bb will b 'guai' n get engage when times come..
 
piggy mummy,

yueling,
