(2008/06) June 2008

hey girls, i've been so busy with work it only just hit me that i'm running out of time!

Looks like my EDD will be brought forward to 3rd wk May. For the 1st time, doc told me bb's weight is 1.4kg & i'm alr almost 33wks. What's the normal range anyway? Sounds a little small...
 


soo,
although the weight of your bb sounds a little small, but it is just an estimation based on the measurements your gynae took from the size of the head n stomach of your bb, so it may not be the actual weight of your bb, do not be too worried, heard from the other ladies that mayb durian will help to have bigger bb
 
no more durian for me! I took a lot during 2nd tri thinking it'll help bb grow & also coz of cravings. End up i'm so darn fat now, but not much weight going to bb.

Dunno about the rest of you, but i'm alr 14kgs & looks like i'm still growing *cringe*

oh ya...something else doc told me. Don't take too much durian. Some bbs dev higher risk of eczema coz the mama took too much durian
 
hi ladies..

ZuEn,
Hope i dun feel pain lor..me n hb seldom hug hug lor...

Felicia,
for constipation, only can drink those like firbregel to ease constipation one lor...cos i hv been having this prob , worst is I hv piles..Gynae already told me my piles will be WORST after i deliver cos all will be pushed out...She asked me to get a float standby so that i can sit on it, if not bery pain..

Zuen,
When you said fibregel, you mean during pregnancy right?I was asking felicia after delivery, confinement that time, bcos for my 1st pregnancy, i got constipation bcos my mil said can only drink longan red dates water n not plain water, so i think maybe too heaty

Bcos my new maid will hv playtime with my children. she will watch tv with me while playing with them leh
 
Felicia
Actually i also have problem typing nowadays. My mind may read what i want to type, but my fingers type sthg else ..lol

Tera
Mine is the joining bone from thigh starting..maybe u right. the thigh, nt pelvic..paiseh

Ellysia, Felicia
Black dates i've heard ok. Actually if we doing confinement food ourselves, I understand there there are certain food to eat at different period. First we have to eat those that get rid of the wind and cleanse for a week or so, then eat those that bu thereafter.
 
<font color="ff6000">babyjo

for my maid, she wil sit and watch with us only if my ger oso joins us if not den she wil be playing with her lor.. </font>
 
Hi all, after delivery in hospital, what will u gals be wearing? front-button nighties or? Can share with me where to buy the nighties?

My EDD is 15-June. so think i better start buying.

For those who have piles, it's good to avoid spicy food. I encounter this at the start of my 3rd trimester n ask my gynae what can i do to reduce it. And true enuf, after i eat less of curry, mee rebus, etc, the piles stopped! =)

Having bad cough and no voice these 2 days, so on mc to rest at home. Have difficulty sleeping at night. keep coughing. it's quite easy to have some leakage when the coughing gets really hard. =( super sianz. practise the kegels exercise also like no use. haiz...

Gonna see the little one later! I guess after today's checkup, it shld be once every 2 weeks. Wonder how heavy is bb now. haha... one month ago at 27 weeks ard 1kg.
 
babyjo
this is my 3rd kid...and the last....girl or boy i stop at 3....previous 2 are normal delivery.

my maid just work with me only abt 10 days...but during dinner she will feed them or me myself will feed my both sons.....but she didn't watch direct facing the TV....i seldom watch TV in the living hall only in the room....but i have inform my mom not to let or ask her to join watch tv or vcd together in my mom's room.
 
feifei,
if your mil not strict, then maybe can eat lor, but weather so hot, if cannot drink cold water, or eat fruits,how to tahan?but old folks always say certain fruits will cause phlegm in bb

danryan,
how is everything now?did they fix the aircon yet?

babyjo,
actually i am not very strict with my maid, as long as she wash my clothes, iron them, do cleaning, she watches tv sometimes, but seldom sit on sofa with us, watch from afar, while doing work, i also allow her to rest if she dont have much to do,or when i see that she's tired, i have nvr raise my voice with her so far
 
mylittleprince,

hi babyjo,
my maid will only sit down n watch tv after she finish all her hsework n when my boy is already sleeping or i'm looking after my boy in my own room. other than tat she will only watch when my boy is also watching e tv but those are usually e children's programs or VCD tat i brought for my boy but at e same time she is looking after my boy n not directly watching e tv without taking care of my boy.
 
ioio,
My bb has turned when I visited my gyane at 28wks, but at 32wks, she turn bk again so now her head is at my rite hand side and feet and my bone ther...
 
feifei,

Hi Fennie, ya, I'm having a boy. how u know? Woah, so "qiao", 5 ladies around the same edd. U also edd on 15-June?

Ok, I note down the Karmy nighties liao. will check out fm Robinsons or Giant. Any price difference b/w the 2 places? Ya, i intend to buy 2 sets also.

By the way, r u buying disposable panties to use at the hospital? ANy recommendations on brand n where to buy?

It's so reassuring to be able to chat with all u mummies here whom we r more or less gg thru the same thing now. =)

Danryan,

ioio,
ya lor, my gynae was telling me to talk to my bb, tell bb to turn head down lor..=D..
 
Hi ladies, thanks for all the advices on maid.

Disposable panties advisable to use in hospital and confinement. Bcos we can't wash our panties ourselves. Once dirty can just throw away
 
Danryan,
You are our heroine, the 2 most dreaded situations for preggie => no toilet and no air-con, u also manage to tahan. Well-done, hehe!
happy.gif
 
mylittleprince,
hehe, bcos your username is mylittleprince, so i anyhow hantam,i think robinson ones, got more designs, and thicker materials, i saw karmy at giant yesterday, but the button only a few at the top, selling $9.90 i think, i think full button down is more easy for nursing, the Robinsons i bought at $14.90-$17.90 each

As for disposable panties,yesterday i bought XXL size disposable panties from giant the one opp IKEA , only $2.60 for 7 pieces, it can fit 48" inches, they have smaller size as well


Feifei,
yesterday i bought XXL size disposable panties from giant, only $2.60 for 7 pieces, if you need more, can get from there, it can fit 48" inches
 
TF,
U mean someone went away without a bottle in the Avent goodie bag la, hehe.
happy.gif
I really hate the parking at AMK hub, forever jam, takes like 10 - 15 min to get in and find a space. Then we all this kind, come down from east will need even more time.
sad.gif
 
Danryan,
Ya, now i go toilet very often, eventhough not much urine, how to tahan the whole morning?

mylittleprince,
yes, my edd also 15th june
 
Felicia,

We can get fenugreek from gnc right? the sales person shd be able to advise on the dosage. Just follow the dosage on the bottle shd be fine i guess.

I just read up on fenugreek at medela website. there is some infor there.
 
Fennie, really!!!! I also need to grab some liao. Really can't fit big butt or nt? My butt big leh, but maternity disposable panties at Kiddy palace can fit me
 
Tera
Ya lor wat to do...so hot and stuffy in the office till my boss bought me 2 Ice Mountain drinking water....now don't know where to pee....

i haven't buy disposable panties yet....lazy to go around shopping....my bb also not confirm yet boy or gerl so once confirm the gender then buy together with bb stuff.

now having my lunch.....brought from home....
 
Re: Durians

Ya i heard tat cannot take too much durians during pregnancy. as for the saying tat it will increase bb weight, dunno whether true or not.

Tera,

U can park at the neighbourhood car park just near the mall, dun have to park at the mall as the road in the carpark is horrendous.
 
<font color="ff6000">i saw JL selling some quite nice material cotton disposable underwear for less den S$5 onli.. forgot the brand though.. those interested can check out

</font>
 


Felicia,
Wow, so many barriers to cross just to hug. MIL and DD.. haha.. Now very difficult to hug while lying down le. Must stand at an angle den can. ;p

soo,
Did your doc say anything abt the bb's size? Mine was only 1kg at 30 week and doc said that it is below norm. Should be at least 1.4kg at 30 week. I am scheduled for a doppler test. My bp oso climbing, so likely that I am developing preggy complication. I tried eating durian last week. I will call that desperation. But I oso think that I have to take everything in moderation. I oso realised that the weight gain is gg to me and not to bb, so trying to eat properly and high protein food now.
