Mrs Yap, OSCAR scan is actually like the scan we do in the gynae's clinic. But of higher quality, and closer zoom-in. Yes, can see gender if baby is cooperative. But some sonographers will not want to tell you cos it's not part of the package for them to interpret the baby's gender.
Hi mummies,
i've been reading abt breast pumps and its giving me headaches!! there's so many different kinds out there! sighz...
Can anyone advise which pump will be better? Avent manual, Avent Duo or Ameda Lac? I'm a SAHM, so i'm not sure if i'll need to get electric pump? What if my bb can't latch on properly? Or there's engorgement?
Sighz..so confusing!

I have been having scan since 8 weeks..no more v-scan (I do not like it).
Glad that you are discussing on the make-up etc..i have been without make-up (no lotion on body, face etc) since pregnancy. Wondering if anyone knows which brand of lipstick shd be fine (no lead etc)? I have been having outbreak on my face, so do not dare to apply anything and do not know what's ok.
thanks mei and sasa. Guess I do not need to go for subsequent checks hopefully. Now got blue-black from the blood test

Hi lhy,
I think you probably won't need an electric pump. I did not use my Medela electric pump much after I delivered as I was a SAHM mom too then, so I direct latch more often. Can use manual if you want to go out and have someone feed your bb occasionally.
bb should latch on properly, i think, if the position is correct. They might not do so immediately in the hospital, but the lactation consultant will help you. if there's engorgement, can pump, but don't overpump cos that will stimulate more milk production, more than what your bb needs and you will keep having the engorgement. Use cabbage leaves, or take more frequent warm showers then to encourage let down...
just my 2 cents worth

Hi RXmom,
I'm really a makup sucker and no one at work sees me without makeup so I was quite disturbed when I saw preggers on MRT wearing zero makeup.
I do wear glasses on and off when I'm really tired in the morning but I make sure I wear my tinted moisturiser and loose powder, blusher and lipstick then!!! VAIN VAIN VAIN!!
Hi Ava
I totally understand what you mean. I bought some Kiehl's shower gel and initially they smelt great. Now, they just stink the high heavens!
My gynae prescribed me with Fucidin for my acne. It's quite effective and less harmful for preggers.
Hi xuanting
I wish I could go natural but I just cannot NOT wear eyeliner lor. My eyes not nice without mascara and eyeliner mah... Bet colleagues will faint if I go bare...
I read somewhere makeup makes one feel better durin pregnancy. I know it's a chore to remove them afterwards. (I don't even know if my MAC makeup remover is harmful or not!) And even a greater hassle to remove my contact lenses...but what to do...
You know, I felt so vain that I even invested in a pair of funky red Prada specs last month so that I don't look "duh" on days I really really feel like skipping those soft lenses. Hmm, so far, the feedback has been good
))))
BBmouse: You can see your baby's gender already? Thought you're 10wks and baby only measures 3.17cm? *ENVY* We weren't even advised of the baby's gender when ours was 7.1cm long, but we did see something sticking out. It could be the fetal pole, who knows?!!! kekeke!
think I must visit the pedicurist soon cos my toenails are really unwieldy!!! Saw some hip mamas at the clinic this week. They have nice arms so they look real good in spaghetti straps. I can't cos I've flabby arms. They even have nice mani and pedi.
Hmm, it's coming to 6pm. And raining in town!!! Damn...I am wearing Charles and Keith heels today...must walk slowly to the MRT...

hi flos, what's a fetal pole? i used to not be able to leave the house without makeup too but i'm really so so nua these days. all i can think about are sleeping and having like six or seven slaves massage my head, hands, body and legs simultaneously!
i thought i saw something sticking out during my oscar scanning too, but i've never seen how a bb's peepee looks so i'm not sure if it might be something else like the umbilical cord or that fetal pole thing you mentioned.

thx. Just that at first I cldn't move much and was feeling weak from unstable preg, then MS hit. Now that it has subsided I thot i cld have a relatively 'normal' life again, I kena flu. So I really really miss feeling 'normal' and active again!
Btw, fetal pole is what they called the baby b4 it develops into a fetus. That's in very early preg, ard 6 weeks.
MAKE UP
I am damn lazy now. Dun even use moisturiser anymore! Everytime I have to go out it is a chore but I have to cover my dark circles otherwise I look terrible. If I cld, I would just hole up at home.
I am so lazy now that if I din need to bathe, even better! yeek!
Go see today's URBAN for organic stuff. Me is using Eminence products since I got preggie. But only when I'm not lazy!

I still makeup when I go out, still want to look like a pretty preggie.
I only avoid those skincare which contains whitening & anti-aging stuff. Sunblock is very very important so please do not skip it as we are more prone to pigmentation problems during pregnancy.
RXmom
I normally go for my scan first before going for the urine test, so it's fine.

Hi flos, welcome!! I am not forgoing my make up!! Its a must, kekeke... Yah, I also feel that my tummy become hairier leh..
Bigtoes (limay): My gynae did tummy scan all the way for me, never do v-scan before. And he scan the gender of my smallberry via tummy scan as well @14weeks. I was ok cos v-scan quite uncomfortable right?
Crayonshinchan: Your bump is big & nice!! Kekeke..
Today tried to wear a top that is tighter but too short to cover my maternity pants. In the end look abit funny! I don't have much long tops, so do you all buy new maternity clothes or just wear dresses?

You just complimented crayon's bum
Got a funny story to share...i had a first meeting yest with new client, and he could not sit thru the whole meeting. So I said, no prob, we can come back again next week. He said "Oh, I hope I will see you next week, cos you might be going into labour!...." I told him "I'm only 3 months! But it's twins, so that's why so big"...LOL
Clothes
aiyoh, even tho I have some maternity tops, I get bored wearing them over and over...so every morning, I stand in my bra in front of my cupboard staring at my clothes for 5-10 mins cos got nothing to wear!!! bottoms are less of a hassle...

Makeup
Yeah, I dont wear makeup on weekends either...well, just sunblock and then powder if the sunblock looks too shiny...I am usually quite low maintenance one, but my skin has been degenerating quite a bit in the last few years (20-something MTBs enjoy your youth! and take better care of yourself than I did pls) so I need full makeup these days.

storeberry, I am still wearing some of my normal tshirts but when I wear my maternity bottom, I'll have to be more careful lor. Cos our normal tops shd be quite short for us now.
I have quite a few hand me downs long tops from my sil so will be having fun wearing them. BUT they are all either spaghetti straps or tube top ones and I'll need to wear something to cover up when I go to work. kind of ma fan...
dmbb, my EDD is 6th Sept. Kekee.. I am 2 days later than u. I am also hoping to see gender next wk then I can start collecting clothes.. haaa..
heee.. mei, why were u staring at my bum instead of my baby bump?? haaaaa..
haha.. ava, i will usually do what u do at nite instead of morning. Cos I'll def be late! I'll mix and match and pair them up to find the best mix! heee... pregnant oso so vain.. but sometimes when I am lazy, I'll just wear pants and polo T. The easiest hassle free mix and how I wish I can wear my birks to work everyday!
yup.. tats how lazy I am most days!

mummies
though i seldom post, but i read all the posts everyday. I always thought that is my tummy getting bigger as my appetite has always been good since preg and i have grown 0.6kg heavier. Can see the few mummies who posted their bump are so beautiful, mine is not as big as u alls yet.
Went for my NT scan last friday, everything is good and can see baby for so long is fun. =) Will be seeing dr end of this month, hope can see the gender. I'm in my 13th wk.
makeups:
I use all neurogena moisturer and toner, loreal milk everyday. Are they fine to use? I put on foundation and blusher before i goes to work too. I hate going out without foundation.

I had lunch with my friend who is 14 weeks and she has barely any bump! Another friend of mine was able to hide her pregnancy from our ex-boss till she was 5 months! and me....? sigh...client thinks I'm due next week LOL...
I tried to buy a maternity belt last night and the salesgirl said her cousin had twins and based on her cousin's bump, she doesnt think their largest belt size will fit me eventually!!!! Waaaah!

Ava, my fren's sil had no bump too! Wonder how and why some bumps are bigger than the others... I am oso quite afraid that I wont be able to wear the pants that I'd bought later into the pregnancy.. hee.. cos the bum and the thighs will get even bigger rite?
lhy, my gynae told me at my 12wks check up that she tot she saw something at the genital area so I kind of like was thinking, it has to be a kuku lor! heee.. but she did not commit an answer, saying she'll confirm at the next check up.. hahaa...
sasa de mouse! whether big or small, u better post up ah! heee.. its fun looking at each other's bumps leh.. so far, those who had posted up all look different...
bacon&egg, u better look for ur CL like NOW! i procrastinated and tot tat with 4 contacts in hand, I will definitely be able to get at least one. I was sooooo wrong lor.. when I called last weekend, ALL were taken up.

Congrats on finding out the sex of the baby!
Yes, please get ur pump before delivery and since it's an Avent manual, which is small and easy to bring around, have it with you in your hosp room, unless u fancy renting one from the hospital.
You won't have much milk the first few days but it's good to have the pump once you start getting engorged (3rd to 5th day) and it will also be used to simulate your baby's suckling to encourage more milk production.

HI Ava
Does that means it is recommended to bring a breast pump when we check in for delivery?

Baby gender
I had a strong feeling for my first one, which was correct. For these two, I may be influenced cos not sure if I like the idea of 3 boys...which may very well be the case so I am not paying attention to my "instincts" and will depend on ultrasound for confirmation

Better safe than sorry! if not too big and clumsy, bring it along. or else hosp might ask u to rent from them.
lhy
It does get tiring, but it's not that bad. even with some Carpal tunnel syndrome in my wrists, was able to use it. Altho u will find the mini electric versions easier...those are still cheaper than the powerhouse electroc ones like PIS and hospital ones, so maybe u can try to get a second hand one as a backup to your manual - in case u really get painful wrists.
BTW,
Due to looser ligaments etc painful wrists are VERY common the first few months (usually 6-8 months or more) esp if u r breastfeeding and need to hold your babies for feeds. Each feed can last for 20-45 mns and then you will probably need to feed again within 3 hours from the start of your previous feed, e.g.
12pm - 12.45 Feed for 45 mins (both breasts)
3pm - 3.45 Feed again
etc etc (it's NOT 3 hours from the END of the previous feed, which is what I thought it was)
So do get wrist supports etc if u are feeling pain! This one u can get after delivery lah...

crayonshinchan: my bump is pretty much like yours! My EDD is 9 Sep. I find that my bump is getting higher as compared to few weeks ago. Read that the uterus is moving upwards, so that may explain why I'm no longer waking up to pee so often now! My record was 5 times when I was 8-12 weeks preggie, now, I only need to wake up once and can even sleep thru sometimes.
On bottles and teats, I did not buy them seperately. So far, I bought Advent Manual Pump set and it came with the Advent bottle. Yesterday, I bought the Pigeon Steam Steriliser set at Isetan Private Sale and it came with 2 bottles. My colleagues recommended changing the teats to Nuk #1 for newborns, the silicon one. But I didnt get any yet. I suppose there will be many more sales to come, so I just got what I wanted from Isetan yesterday and left quickly. I also bought some long sleeve with button cotton tops and long pants for my little one from Richgi. They were on 30% so I think that's a great discount as compared to Kiddy Palace.

shazz, i'm glad to hear about the pee-ing thing being another passing phase! how many weeks are you now? i've been going to the toilet so many times every night and since i'm now living in a rented room, i feel really pai-say and self conscious about it. i hope it'll go away soon so i can have some uninterrupted sleep.
my symptoms:
- little morning sickness (& usu in evenings)
- no change in face shape/no outbreak
- dislike veg but don't crave for meat either
- hate garlic & onions
- bump not visible
- faint brown line running thru left side of belly button
the chinese gender prediction chart said girl, a feng shui master said girl while my tcm practitioner said boy. my maternal instinct says wait for scan. ha.
