little twin stars,
I just went online MSN. you can either call me or msn me. Yup, I want the contact anyway, cos need to start looking around for maid soon.
Hur? why they give you only one choice?

Take care ya? takes about 2 weeks to recover from flu. It took me that long..

 

[celynlee]

valnsw,
tummy feel tight and pain when i try to turn from sleeping on left to right or the other way. wondering what's wrong but its not always like that. once in a while, it will happen.

little twin stars,
at least you know that you kena flu, i can never tell when i'm having flu or when i'm not. i'm forever in this having a flu stage since i'm pregnant. sigh....

 

[doll_puppet]

Rei rei
i was at the city hall robinsons yesterday..not much there

valnsw
the number can be found either at the side of the bottle, inside a triangle, or at the bottom of the milk bottle..
babywise mentioned about avoiding those milk bottles with 7...

dongle
ya, im still on ventolin and adalat..Hospitalisation leave all the way till 23 may...but i returned to work liao...too much work to clear..but boss gave me green light to come in to work at flexible timings..so if i dun feel well, i just dun turn up, or turn up late...actuallyi doing the company a favour by reporting to work liao!...
my tummy will still harden when walk too much or stand too long...still got a bit of cramps...so im trying to be very careful lor...slow window shopping ok...but cannot walk more than 15mins one stretch..must sit and rest...

rat.
forgot to update u on my bb's weight. 27 weeks, 1.1kg...

i also went for the steriod jab on sat after doing my diabetics test..wah...so painful...must jab 2x somemore....once in the morning and another one in the evening..this is to help in developing my bb's lungs..just in case she born premature...sigh..all the pain we mummies must endure...

 

[stardiva]

valnsw,

i go eat porridge first, i'll go online around 2pm k

celynlee,

aiyo, u worst lei....i had some gd days, now feeling terrible

plus the weather is soooooooo hot yet i can't turn on aircon cos it will make my block nose worst.....i'm in agony man

 

[valnsw]

celyn,
my tummy feels stretched in the morning when i wake up. Cos I have this reflex action to stretch/straighten my body when I wake up, even before pregnancy. Other than that, when turning, more of pelvic soreness instead of tummy painful.

YLN,
thanks for the info. I think I saw it liao. the NUK plastic bottles I got all have number '7'. haiz.. told my mum when making milk have to make sure the water cooled down before pouring in. She told me not to worry so much about those reports. say last time I also drink from plastic bottles, still turn out fine...

Hey, you will be going into 3rd trimester soon! Do enjoy the rest of the pregnancy ya? since you have your hospitalisation leave.. hehe

 

[mavys_m2bagain]

Twin Stars,
I gained quite abit of weight liao thus trying to stay away from durians but my mom and MIL kept buying them for me.

Now abit scared to go gynae's clinic next Tue coz gotta weigh myself...hahaha

BTW, you take care hor. Hope you get well soon!

 

[krex78]

actually, i have problems sleeping at night and i get interrupted sleep. think i can't find a comfi position to sleep. last time, just lie down in bed and i can sleep liao. nowdays, i toss and turn for sometimes 1 hour to get to sleep. then in the middle of the night, i also wake up. occasionally due to leg cramps, other times to find another comfi position to sleep in. sigh!

 

[hisstory]

celyn

Oh please do take care.. Good thing your HB is rather calm & not 'scold' u for being silly

yuuri

Tt's good! I wldn't mind a bigger baby & not me putting on the wt *heheheh* Don't get too worried, if gynae's okie

twin stars

U're down too.. Drink plenty of water k? Sleep as early as you can too

 

[celynlee]

hisstory,
hehehhe..... my power weapon is my tears. once i cried, he will give in to everything. he will do whatever for me to stop crying. i cry even more if he scold me, so he won't scold me. he just give me a innocent look.

krex78,
yah, very hard to find a comfi position to sleep now. last time, i used to sleep on my tummy. now i can't do that liao, hubby will turn me over once he saw it.

 

[stardiva]

M2b,

so good...u can see baby again

as long as u eat in moderation can lo. think i ate too much cupcakes till i gain weight sudd

r u going to 3rd trimester on tues?

hisstory,

u too? m trying to drink lots of water but most prob will see dr tonight or tom. hard to sleep lei. mu block nose gets real bad at night. gotta elevate my pillow if not cannot breathe.....such a torture....plus the heat! sigh

 

[krex78]

celyn, same here. sometimes i lie on tummy just for fun and hubby will say i tekan bb again.

 

[celynlee]

krex78,
yah.... i will do that to make baby move. then hubby is so gan jiong, he will say don't lah.... don't bully baby.

 

[steph_steph]

Hi rata,
can help mi update, Bb's weight is 700gm at 24wks. Thanks

Nini,

glad that u r better now. remember to take light food for now. i'm sure baby will still get the nutrients. I was oso worried that my bb wun get enough when i was sick but somehow or rather she put on quite a bit of weight though my weight remained the same frm 20th to 24th wk. Guess i put on too much weight before that. hee

I oso can't stand the weather now. N somemore i m not allowed to take any cold stuffs.. wahh.. super pek chek at times, especially afternoon.

 

[mavys_m2bagain]

twin stars,
I ate everything in moderation leh...guess i gained faster coz before preggie, I dun eat much plus exercised at least 3x a week plus do uzap...now can't do so many stuffs...

Itz my 28weeks this Sat liao...hooray! BTW, I always thought 3rd tri starts from 26 weeks onwards leh...

 

[krex78]

btw, any of you experience any shift in EDD? mine shifted by one week since my last visit. from abt 14 aug to ard 22 aug. it's as if bb is growing so slowly. gyane said he weights 700+g now and i'm now in 24 weeks+, not 25 weeks. so strange.

 

[celynlee]

krex78,
i have the same problem too. from my last scan, my edd shift from 10 aug to 16 aug. when i ask my gynae, he say it should be around 10 aug. don't have to worry about the shift. i think the shift is depending on baby's growth.

 

[steph_steph]

Hi valnsw,

Yaya. i hope he stays the same. Funny thing is that bb seems to know that everythin is fine now. Coz during the few days of cold war, she seems so quiet but now, she again start her kicking n turnin.

hisstory,
*I m keepin my fingers cross* . hehe. Was tellin my hubby that he mk bb sad too coz she nv really move much the past few days. N he started to apologise to bb, keep tellin her everythin is oki, mus continue to be active, etc. Damn funni. Hope eveythin will stay the way it is..

I think marriott's hi tea is pretty gd. They had quite a wide selection of food. Hows the hi tea at carlton? issit gd ?
I've been wantin to try carousel's hi tea cause its seem to b fully book everytime i go. But the forgetful me keep forgetting to mk appointment beforehand.

M2B,
I will stay happie happi. Thanks thanks =)

 

[stardiva]

M2B,

hehe, i don;t exercise at all...."shy" i will join u in 3rd trimester next mon

krex, celynlee
my edd keeps shifting forward.... ( from 9aug to 29 july....etc) now i don;t even know what to tell pp when they ask my about edd....how to even buy 4D! hahahaha

 

[mrslow]

Valsnw,

My hubby very bad hor still wanna record my snoring sound but that is part & parcel of pregnancy so enjoying the fun & teasing. Haha.. You so funny, taking revenge? Enjoy ur snapping.

twinstars,
Take care ya. Nowadays weather not very good, get sick easier. Take fruits to get more vit c. But avoid oranges if u have phelgm.

Krex,
Mee too leh, always tryign to find a comfy position to sleep. Waking up now and then in the middle of the night to shift myself.

 

[mavys_m2bagain]

Happie,

Twin Stars,

But now just dealing with an irritating cough & nose

steph

Carlton's high-tea is gd if you can take sashimi, oysters, cold prawns & other seafood. It is supposedly famed for its durian desserts too.. There were quite a plenty of durian desserts, cakes, puree & ice-cream

Saw qt a no. of ppl ta-baoing the durian cakes

Have gone Carousel for high-tea about 3 occasions. Quite gd, there's qt a variety. The place is very nice for its ambience and the food is pretty good too. I like their carrot cake.. The dessert counter is decorated really attractively. Kids love the fondue fountain..

 

[stardiva]

[stardiva]

[valnsw]

wooh.. now the topic on durian cake? i think i ate too many slices of the durian cake fr jalan kayu during FIL's bday dinner.

Don't know if that caused the sore throat. The cake quite irresistable though. Think must drink lotsa water to make sure you don't get heaty.

just now was clearing up my old PC stuff then came across my wedding photos and videos. heh brings back memories.. seems like quite some time ago but yet was only last July! HEHE

 

[mrslow]

Re: hot weather
I'm in KL now. It's also soooo very hot. My parent's house's living room/dining hall no air-con, thus i keep myself to the study room or my room. But this morning went out to cut hair and shopping. Just came home...hehe..it was so heavenly walking around in the air-con shopping mall.

Re: Baby's movement
My bb also very very active for this past week. Keep moving so much. I wonder does she ever sleep leh. (she's kicking me as i'm typing this )

 

[steph_steph]

M2B,

Yaya, now is the time for us to enjoy our food n put on weight coz no matter wat, after birth will b dieting time. Haha. I enjoy goin for buffet coz there is soo many choices.

Cindy,
My mum n hubby restricted me frm cold stuff saying its better for baby. Since its for baby, no choice, gotta follow. Haven really had any cold drink n icecream for bout 6 mth. Only once or twice when hubby see me soo "xin ku". he will let mi have a sip or two.

Hisstory,
Guess i must go carlton n try , I love sashimi n durian desserts. yum yum. Seems like carlton's hi tea has a wider range of seafood den mariott, Mariott only have sashimi, smoke salmon n cold prawns.
Wah.. i didn't know that nowadays still got pple ta bao for buffet..haha..
I used to love the fondue at The line but after preggie, dun seem to like choc anymore.

Btw , must take care of yrself. if not feelin well, go see a doc. mus rest more n drink lotsa water coz weather is mad nowadays

 

[krex78]

twin star, i've seen jane's cake station but everytime i pass by it's closed leh.

how come all of u craving for durian? i eat until xian liao. most of the time, it's my hb who wants the durian, and sometimes he buys like 3 boxes. eat until don't want to see durian anymore, haha.

 

[mrslow]

happie,
U so "kuai". My mum and hubby also say cold drinks not good... but i buay tahan so also drink but not excessive lor... hee hee... Very hot leh and i dun like hot drinks.

 

[celynlee]

little twin stars,
no lah, no one bully me, just feel blue suddenly loh. shopping used to be my therapy too. hehehe.... but now shopping also not much kick.

buffet:
i haven't eat buffet for a long time liao. must find time to go.

i got no craving for any kind of food at all. guess baby is not fussy with food at all. hehehe....

 

[krex78]

cold drinks: i was told to avoid it mainly by colleagues. otherwise, gynae says ok. i try to mix and match. if can tahan, i take warm barley or soya bean. if weather too hot, i'll still take cold drinks.

bb movement: my bb still not very active leh. starting kicking already but not all the time. just a few kicks here and there at certain times of the day. is my kid abnormal or just very, very sleepy???

 

[stardiva]

mul,
u in KL, no wander no news from u. m sure u are clocking on shopping there

me going to see dr later liao as i'm burning up

my baby is also getting active es at night or when i put my hands on my tummy. she always poke back to say hi before going to sleep

krex,
they close on wed n they have short op hrs, need to call b4 going down. so gd u stay so near. i'll have to ake a trip down jus to order.

cindy,
tt bib fella never acknowledge orders one....dunno to transfer or not lei

happie,

celynlee,
it's the weather that's bulling us

now i switch to cake therapy...now that i'm sick, sian

 

[celynlee]

i always drink cold water.

little twin stars,
i try to stay away from cakes now, cos scare got diabetes. although i only eat cheese cake and big O from NYDC.

the weather is bullying all of us.

 

[celynlee]

i have been sneezing the whole day. i think i down with real flu and not the 'pregnant flu' liao. tonight, got to go back and eat the flu medicine.

 

[steph_steph]

cindy,

Haha, i m tryin my best to b "kuai". Keep tellin myself its for baby, so die die must tahan..But sometimes oso can get veri pek chek, but hubby will joke with me, " if u wanna take cold drinks,u must eat a blanket down later for bb, otherwise she will b very cold". Pretty stupid joke but at least it mk mi take my mind off the cold stuff for that moment.

Little twin stars,
I m forced to be discipline. haha. But y u can't take fried food ? If i can't take fried food, i'll b soo deprive liao..haha
Oh ya, remember to rub yr bruised arms , otherwise the bruise will stay longer.
Mayb we can organise a marriott hi tea another day. hehe..

 

[bab1es]

<font color="0000ff">twin stars</font>
oh dear, u also got fever. Then must be careful ya. Coz high fever is quite dangerous to the baby.
You didn't take panadol to subdue the fever? Couple months back when I had fever, the gynae also just gave me panadol for it.

so cute lah your baby, say 'hi' before going to sleep... My bb quite notti these few nites, keep kicking me when i was about to go to sleep.


<font color="0000ff">happie</font>
Re: dieting after given birth
hehe...not to spoil ur mood but if you are to breastfeed, you are not suppose to go on diet leh. Breastfeeding mommies must eat healthily and cannot cut down on food intake.

 

[snow74]

twin stars &amp; celyn
u gals noe of any place that serve good buffet/hi-tea during weekday?

[hisstory]

Oh yah, some ppl believe tt chocs are good for mummy &amp; bb.. My aunt apparently ate 1 bar of choc every day when she was preggy. But lucky her, she lost the wt quickly. U vomitted fr eating chocs ah?

 

[doubleblessing]

Hi I am expecting twins and am 23 weeks preg now, but the doctor hasn't told me the weight of the babies yet...how do you know their weights?
