Sorry to answer for mousebb..juz to give more info
my 1st delivery was epidurual with c se. no pain at all. the bottom part where the gynae performed the cutting was shielded from my husband's eyes. lol..i think he would hv died to see all.

yeah, you can to carry the baby after it's out.
for my case, they cleaned her first.

she was crying and crying so much..and when they put her on my hands, i called her name and she stopped crying, opened her eyes and looked at me...it's the moment i'll never forget in my life.

Yup. My hubby was only allowed to sit beside me. Cannot see the whole process cos it was covered up. Epidural is to help numb the lower part of our body therefore you wont be able to feel any pain. Of course once the epid effect goes off, you will start to feel the pain. For me, I already heard of this before I go for my c-sect. I was very kiasi. The ops was at 1pm and I started to ask for painkillers at 3.30pm. However, bcos I wasnt allowed to take the painkiller with an empty stomach, I only took it at 8pm but never felt the pain leh.
The nurse will pass you your bb to cuddle for a few moments before they bring the bb away to wash up and then send to the nursery.</font>

trace..i wore only at the hospital cuz they will be alot of blood, easier and cleaner to wear disposable ones..

you may also wear during your confinement.

 

[eternitystar]

<font color="0000ff">Trace,

It's up to individual, not necessary to get disposable ones...

Juz tht find it a hassle to wash during confinement esp if the lochia is going to be heavy...

</font>

 

[tracee]

Enya/littlebluey,

noted! i shall add this into my list..hehe

 

[wly72]

Diane
Dun worry too much.

[tracee]

suddenly having cold feet abt the labour part..

 

[elchwong]

Enya,

Does it mean that it's better to wear it on the day we got admitted (e.g. from home to hospital)?

 

[pig_pig]

<font color="aa00aa">Trace
When I delievered my boy, I brought along those normal and disposable panties to the hospital with me. The nurse advised me to wear those disposable ones cos the bleeding can be super duper heavy on the next day after we gave birth. Heng I took her advice cos the bleeding was very...heavy. When I was back home, I wore the normal ones cos more comfortable mah.</font>

 

[eternitystar]

<font color="0000ff">Trace,

Definitely we gonna have the "fear" but I think for the meanwhile dun think too much about it...wait for the time to come then see how it goes

Easier said than done hor...
</font>

 

[wly72]

Trace
I got it too for my no. 1
Juz dun think about it too often and get worried for nothing. It's a process we all hv to go thru to see our beautiful babies

Enjoy while he/she is in your stomach..and enjoy the special bond now.... only you and he/she
he/she feels whatever you feel now, he/she eats whatever you eat now...he/she is part of you now.

<font color="aa00aa">elch
I wore the normal one on the day of admission cos more comfortable. Only wore the disposable ones after delivered.</font>

Aroma baby stuff can be found in Mums &amp; Babes as well as Robinsons.

KY Jelly - It's a lubricant ... keke ... can even buy from 7-11. but all major pharmacies will carry that.

I have been drinking plenty of water everyday since mid of 2nd trimester. Dunno why always feel very thirsty. If dont drink, really feel like going to dehydrate liao.</font>

[jellypurin]

litbluey

[eternitystar]

<font color="0000ff">Trace,

I remember when before I was diagnosed with mild GD, tend to drink alot of water always feel thirsty seems like never enuf..but after I control my diet, now I dun hv the tendency to get thirsty so easily....juz be careful ya....

But oso cld be due to the fact that you are taking more food with MSG or either weather too hot!..

</font>
