I just came back from my week 35 check up and my weight gain of 400gms is actually my bb's
He has grown from 2kg-2.4kg in 2 weeks
I checked Babycenter and found that his weight is within normal range
However, my BP shot up this time 130/90, so the dr ordered that I come back in an hour to remeasure my BP again. Luckily I slept soundly in the ward, and as a result, my BP went down to 110/80. Phew! No need to take medicine!
sasa de mouse: Dr Cheng told me to leave the PD and Anaesthetist spaces blank on the admission form. He will assign when the time comes, cos we won't know who's available at the eleventh hour. He will recommend those he works closely with.
I also asked him if I could use a GP instead of PD. He says once u r out of the hospital, why not? He commented that SG parents are just being too Kiasu; they take their kids to see a professional PD for every other ailment
Sunrays: good to hear that you're back. Yeah, perhaps u r right. I didn't really look closely if the swell's gone down or not. Just irritated that every single colleague I bump into in the building would comment "Oh dear...you've badly swollen feet." I'm so tired of answering them u know...swollen swollen lor...what's the big deal??...I'll be popping soon anyway.
lilboymom: Your son is soooooooooo cute!!! Can I get those yellow sheets from TMC pharmacy?
LC: What is the benefit of eating cherry tomatoes? I've too stopped drinking all cordyceps and paoshen soups.
Grace: Does coconut juice help to alleviate the swell?
Bigtoes: I tend to agree with you that some grandparents will dote on the prettier and cuter grandchild, internal or external. My own parents prefer my sis' son cos he has very large attractive eyes/ long lashes/bushy eyebrows/high nose bridge, as compared to my bro's son, i.e. their internal grandson who has single eyelids/a little droppy eyes/sparse eyebrows, not too nice mouth and nose, based on the commoner's understanding of beauty.
I can see the 'pride' on my parents' faces when they push my sis' son out to to the malls as everyone would admire and compliment my handsome nephew. My bro's wife used to dote on this handsome nephew before she gave birth to her own son. Now that she has her own son, she comepletely ignores the handsome nephew at family gatherings. She also prevents/scolds her own DH (i.e. my bro) from playing with my sis' son, i.e. the handsome nephew...
I find this so sickening
