Those who has not delivered, gotta enjoy our last few weeks, days of freedom. It's true that now the baby is under our control .... but once they are out, we are under their control ... hahha. Say bye bye to freedom.
Now still can sleep at our own fancy ... go out, shopping, watch movie ..... once they come out, we will become a COW during confinement
So let's enjoy our freedom while we can.

Alot of mommies are now waiting for natural and not induce. Sounds good cos if baby decides to come out, it's the best. Unless there's risk to the mother and baby, then induce or c-sect.
Let's think of the positive side and don't complain when the baby's out .. when we'll have vv little rest.

I need to find out how to use it ... haven/t even open it up yet.

Yuuri,
Dun give urself too much stress when bf. My bb also demand feeding every hourly or 1 and a half hourly during a certain period in a day. My mil will also keep saying, bb hungry easily, is it my bm not enuff for him lah, or bm not filling lah, blah blah blah... i just told her it's bb who is notti, drink little every time then gets hungry quickly. I do supplement with FM during this period cos i feel my supply might not replenish fast enuff especially by the 3rd feed. Also, my bb is underweight, so my PD did suggest to supplement with 1-2 FM feeds per day. So dun feel so bad tt we hv to give FM at times k? As long as we are still bf our bb, they will still get the best nutrients from us. Meanwhile, relax and im sure ss will increase gradually.
Jvenus,
helium balloon - think i saw some helium balloons at this shop opp delifrance at TMC. They shd hv the helium gas cylinder.
Pacifier
can we introduce pacifier to newborns? think my bb also using my nipples as pacifier sometimes. just suckle for a few minutes then fall asleep.
valnsw,
dun get too upset over wat ur mother said. I sure she felt guilty too. Maybe she's also stressed tt ur bb's coming soon n she's trying to settle everything. All parents love their children.
Ratatouille,
maybe u can try to entertain ur girl during the day so tt she'll be more tired at night? My PD said it's normal for newborns to be more active at night. Can try switching off/ dimming the lights.

Haiz my bb got readmitted to hospital yesterday due to jaundice level 18. When I heard have to leave him in hospital, my tears started to roll sia! So loser! But secretly, I am guilty of being able to enjoy a good rest! This morning jaundice level still high-- 12. So I'll only get him back tomorrow.
Today went to remove stitches, and my doc v funny. Tell me coke is very nice, quickly run opposite and get a can! HB say the stitches cannot see liao but I think he's bluffing me cos' I refuse to look into the mirror!
Aurora:
Your bb very cute!
Now my bb in hospital, so I just let them feed FM. As long as I don't see, then I won't feel so bad. So meanwhile yesterday and today pumping more so when he come back, I can totally feed EBM
Shint:
Ameda pump is v easy to use. Which part do you need help in? I find the pumpin' pal set of super shields and handsfree SUPER useful! Can lean back and read a magazine while pumping away!

venus, sorry i'm not very sure leh. it's some kind of grease that you use to lubricate joints like squeaky doors, etc. not sure if it's WD40. it won't contaminate milk as it's on the exterior. just have to find the part that is causing the squeak and apply there. make sure it's not applied inside the milk bottle or where there's contact with milk.
fae, my weight loss very slow now. jamu massage showing slight results each day. i can't really see it but my hubby says it helps with tummy and my hips have become a bit smaller. hopefully on my last session, i will regain my pre-preggie figure!

valnsw,
dont feel bad.. parents sometimes drive us crazy. there were a few instances when my mom also drove me up the wall ... but after a few days then she's ok. same thing every day during dinner she will complain abt the maid, but yet she say dont change.. i also nothing to say.. haha. (same like u we also living with my mom so I understand how you feel .. but when bb was born, my mom really dote on her alot .. )
shint,
i totally agree with u .. cant even take a shower in peace. Thot she sleep already then take a quick shower, havent towel dry myself she wake up already .. haha. but i cherish all these moments with her
re: pacifier
my girl also suckles on my nipple to sleep.. i read somewhere it's like a form of comfort/reassurance to them to do that. That day i really no choice and gave her the pacifier to suckle abit then i take away.. or i give her if i need to just go make the milk to stop her from crying .. but she dont take it if that is the case, she will only take the pacifier if she wants to suckle something to sleep. so sometimes no choice i give for a short while.

twin, dun think too much. my CL also does things her way but i think ultimately, she knows best. i realise she's feeding him a lot to prevent him from jaundice and he's getting better by the day. more alert now. my bb can't latch on but i'm not giving up on BM so i still pump lor, and let CL supplement with formula milk. she also use pacifier on him. maybe i'll get rid of all these bad habits when she leaves but meanwhile, i really do need her help to get my sanity back. at least i get to rest at night and take afternoon naps. w/o my CL, i will be at a total loss.
Just back from gynae for my 38th week checkup. Hmm..Although baby head is down (but not that down)but not engaged yet, my gynae says its quite surprising cos it SHOULD be engaged already. Checked his head circumference and its ok, normal. So "suspect" i have a small pelvic!? I m pretty big frame, so gynae quite surprised my pelvic is small... So, she say if baby head is not engaged by next week - i will have to do c-sec..
For mommies who does c-sec, is it true u can only do it twice? And c-sec very painful? Can we be awake to witness the birth of bb? Sorry i m totally unprepared cos i was expected natural delivery...but if lets say bb head is engaged, i can TRY but gynae thinks my labour will be quite long n 'dificult' due to my small pelvic.
Sigh..xianz... All the past few months of walking so much mean nothing also.

aurora / catherine,
thanks for listening. I knw it's just my mum ranting and shd ignore but haiz.. it's tough when she goes on and on... yday I had to listen to my parents' minor argument. sianz.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to bb's arrival, think at least my parents will be happy once they see the bundle of joy.
reirei / celyn,
ya now waiting and more waiting. hubby asked me if got pain or not. I said so far no leh, except this morning 3+am got crampiness again, when I think I also woke him up.
Think let baby come out herself, but the crampiness is sometimes quite uncomfortable to bear.
little twin stars,
don't get too upset over your CL. Can get your MIL to handle her? Keep pumping to stimulate your supply. Jia you!

cocomo,
Congrats on your baby!
Do update us when you log in!
nini,
perhaps you can play by ear? As in, by next week, if bb is not yet engaged, better do C-sect. Else if natural cannot, end up emergency C-sect, I think you will feel even worse.
At least your gynae gave you some options, you can be mentally prepared.
As for going for natural if your bb is engaged, if your gynae is confident enough to do so, I guess it's how much you trust your gynae's ability. Since you mentioned you have small pelvis.
Congrats on your baby!

All the best and wishing a smooth and quick labour!!
VE:
My gynae avoids doing it as she says it may disturb the membranes and other thing I had dialted 1 cm on 27th jul itself. Bracing myself up for this wednesday visit. Hopefully she wont ask me to get admited.
Medusa:
Please take rest. You know atleast 2 weeks before I went into preterm labour, my body was telling me to take rest and be at home. But I have to go to office and also visit client places and at the end I had to be admitted into hospital and go through so much of pain and monitoring.My problem was I didnt have mcs (only 5 per year) but now I am on Hospitalization leave but still working from home
Please take rest and listen to your body.
Celyn,
How are you feeling now?
aurora,
Your baby is so sweet and content looking!
cocomo,
congratulations! Waiting for pics and story

valnsw,
dont worry too much. their hearts will melt after they see baby ..and they fuss more over her than I do. hahaa.. then they become like bee like that hovering all over you for a piece of baby. then u have another set of headache with them
nini,
for csec my gynae say 3 times. i wont say it's not painful. But i manage to get off the bed on 2nd day. painful but still manageable. 3rd day onwards is much better. in fact they were all surprised see me walking around on 3rd day. but the wound takes time to heal, can only do massage 2 mths later. then now the wound and tummy area feels numb. gynae said cos of the nerves. anyway then for next 2 mths not suppose to do strainous exercise or hsework (good excuse). hahaha. oh BTW mine was csec by GA. if you do csec via epi then you can witness the birth of baby.

One tip. I had placed a chair in the shower room so I can sit on it while I bathe ... vv useful for one who has a super big tummy! Very shoik leh but be careful oso la.
That day I sit on the toilet bowl in the middle of the nite and almost fell off cos I sat on the side. Tummy to big liao, cannot balance.
Catherine,
Pacifier. I gave to my #1 on day 1 or 2 after he returns from the hospital cos got no choice, staying at some relative place and they have vv old pple there. Dun wan to disturb them.
I think pacifier is ok, i bought so many to standby liao ... hahaa. I manage to wean my son off when he was like 1 year old.
Yuuri,
Hee, me haven't open the pack yet .. gonna try soon. Will PM u if i need any help
ReiRei, History,
That heartless hubby of my ex-boss? He's a man la and said he understand having children since he has 3 and ok for me to work from home if I get pregnant, that's why I quit to join him. I even "fought" with my hubby regarding taking up that offer. In the end, my hubby was right - Why would a one man show company willing to pay my maternity leave for 12 weeks? anyway, it was the most stressful period of my life and I had to live with it. Perhaps my #1 will also be vv strong too ... heee.
Anyway, if u are confirmed and with the company more than 180 days, you are entitled to your maternity leave if u dun quit la. But sometimes they vv mean, they make things so difficult for u to force u to resign.
MNCs at least can go and complain and bring up to higher management, depends on politics. But one man show, he is the boss ma, so what he says that's it.

Tips for Ameda pump I got from the supplier
1. Run on the base for 5-10mins first before attaching the pumps, etc ..... low power.
2. Valve - try not to pull out from the tip - most sensitive part. No need to sterilise it every time, just take out from the top & soak in hot water, to discharge out the excess milk from the valve. Don't run on tap water - the bottom part will open up. Use hot water to rinse and wash it. Can add baby detergent but wash it again after that.
Early morning, sterilise it once, and next time use hot water.
Try not to use tablets.
The more u sterilise the more it wears out.
Yuuri,
Your valve spoilt is it?

shint,
Who did you call regarding the instructions? Think I remembered you got it from somewhere else, not Mumsfairy.
So means the valve no need to clean so vigorously. According to your instructions, that means can dump into the electric steriliser ya?
I think it was YLN's Ameda pump valve that got spoilt.
Yuuri,
think I will check with you on how to use the hands-free thingy. It looks weird to me, wondering how to use.
celyn / reirei,
I just went to the toilet.... AGAIN!!! Wa piangs, it's my 3rd time going to poo today. Duno isit the body system digesting too well or what...
I think i could have ignored going to toilet, but felt if I don't, later will feel v uncomfy like got things accumulate there. Arrggghhh....
Everytime I go poo, bb will have lots of movements. Duno if she's uncomfortable that's why...
Catherine,
ya, maybe later my parents will love my baby so much, end up later my parents may quarrel amongst themselves how to do certain things w the bb. I've seen how sometimes my MIL scolded my FIL over the way he handles my hubby's nephew

Valnsw,
I got it from TMC. The service centre is Infantree Pte Ltd, even mumsfairy oso send it back to them for servicing.
The guy said the valve need to sterilise it once a day can liao, the rest of the time can just use hot water. Sterlise too many times will spoil it.
Btw, i think i wanna get the handsfree, etc plus extra valves. Think Mumsfairy delivers >$100 rite?
Me gonna open it up tonite or in the next few days .... cos now oso kenna BAD backache.
Anyway, I am using the Tiger balm (white one) to rub on it ... every nite .... now i have to use it in the day so many times oso.
My ache only on the rite side.
I'm glad Tiger Balm exists, no need to rub too hard, just apply and then when it warms up... vv shoik!
Who going to see Dr W today? I prob go and see him to get MC to rest ... back killing me too and the frequent nite peeing.

I am glad I have started my 37th week, so if baby wants to come out this week, then I bobian but not premature ... i'm still ok.
Now hoping he'll cooperate and stay longer .... furthermore, dunno if my #1 has chicken pox, gotta monitor and see if more rashes or even if blisters appears. Keeping fingers crossed.
Since I've had my chicken pox before and it's supposingly safe, now my hubby says he wants to segregate himself instead at his parents place cos he never got it before, and if he gets it, then cannot take care of me. Now I am left with maid and #1 at home to monitor if #1 really gets chicken pox.

Do C-section can only do 2x ah? My fren's mum delivered to her 3 gers all by c-section leh.. And tt was 20+ years ago...
I think can stay awake during C-section, via Epi & not GA..
Which hospital are u delivering in? My colleague delivered at Mt A (so am I) and she says can ask the nurse to gauge the size u need & get fr the pharmacy.. She says it's really gd coz it was only 4 weeks after delivery tt she started her post-natal massage, and the masseuse says she was in gd condition becoz of the binder..

annlee: thanks!
hisstory: im delivering at TMC.. I just did my homework, c-sec via epi is not really that painful and u can get to witness the birth of baby. But its for the strong hearted cos some may get scared at the lightings n sounds in the operating threatre.. For GA, its completely KO..hehe but compare epi n GA, epi heals faster..

Nini,
Can do more than 3x la ... my fren is going for her 3rd C-sect end of the year and the gynae says can go for 4th one oso. Fren oso said she knew of someone who did 5 C-sect before.
Fren said that for C-sect, if u do it twice then not recommended to do natural for 3rd one liao cos scared the wound might erupt.
Luvlel,
He has some small spots on his back and buttocks oredi but like rashes kind, no blisters kind yet. Think i take MC for myself so i can bring him to doc tomorrow.

dun need to be stress over breastmilk leh, there is nothing wrong about not enough breastmilk.
ur cl might be feeding ur bb fm cos dun want her to ganna jaundice or gastric problem, dun think too much.
celyn
think its coming....hee hee....enjoy ur sushi tei tonite ya!?!? =D
nini
both way of c-sect are equally painful, cos its the incision that is painful mah.
but do remember to try to walk abit the moment they remove all those tube, its really helps in recovery.
like what catherine said, i remember i can walk around w/o help on 3rd day liao also.

shint,
the pacifier was a freebie from pigeon. I didn't intend to buy any.. hahha.. my mom dont want me to use cos she say it's no good for bb.. hubby will ask to use if she's keeping him awake. haha.
valnsw,
you are right abt that also. my aunty always scold my uncle when he tries to reprimand my nephew and everyone in the family feels my aunt spoil him ..
nini,
is GA more painful than epi ? my gynae said not really lei. she said in fact recovery is faster for GA cos in epi case ur legs numb so may not be able to get out of bed so soon.. i chose csec cos i didnt want to go natural, and i dont really think it's more painful than natural .. maybe recovery process is longer but i dont think less painful.. hahaa.
the abdominal binder can get from hospital or your gynae or even pharmachy. i got 1 from medela, then my gynae there also got one. if u may be having csec then ask ur gynae for it, cos theirs is better and more suitable for post-operation. very comfy.
jvenus,
ya keloid. the patch damn ex lo 1 pc 50+. hope it really works man.

Kel: Heartiest congratulations! Such a beautiful coincidence as in same birthday as your hubby so he must be very happy
Catherine: I decided to stick to Dr Terence Tan since not a lot of difference in the charges and also because he is based in Mt A.
6 days countdown to seeing baby Amber if she is on time on the EDD.
