That time I was quite blurred also and thought how come TMC din issue any mc for me. When I asked the nurse, the nurse told me to get it from my gynae. Come to think of it, it sounds logic bcos there are so many clinics at TMC and if TMC is going to issue MC for our ML, they also cannot sign on behalf of our gynae mah.</font>

re: PJs
I had c-sect when I delivered my boy. Din get those dress PJ but the normal top and bottom ones. Din hurt my wound at all. Your wound will be covered by 2 layers, 1st layer with a super big bandage and the 2nd layer, a thinner one, something like a plaster. Most probably the thinner one will be removed by your gynae when you go to remove the stitches. Dont worry! </font>

That's right!

Dont need. Usually we have to apply ML before we give birth. Last time for me, I applied my ML based on my original EDD but it happened that I gave birth earlier, so when we submitted the MC to our HR dept, they will amend the date accordingly. </font>

I guess the issue is not the brand of the pads but the amount of flow that you will be having. This really depends on individual.
Purebliss
Dont agree that c-sect dont need to bring too many pads. Usually the flow will be extremely heavy on the next day after we delivered. That time my flow was super duper heavy until the nurse told me to just sit on the toilet bowl for the next 5-10mins. She even told me if this situation continues, she would have to alert my gynae.</font>

Thanks Mummies, I will take it easy from now. Kan cheong too much over baby will only make things worst. I am feeling much better now, hopefully my muscle pull will recover fast.
Vanilla,
Day after your c-sect, nurses will sponge you and change for you. They asked me if I brought my own stuff like disposable panty, maternity pads and PJs and changed for me. Personally I feel the PJ gowns more convenient cos after c-sect I find it rather difficult to lift legs to even change panties. So pants type PJs might not be convenient.
Lili,
TMC parentcraft sells Fenugreek,I wanted to get it during my stay but forgot! Sigh....
Purebliss and Mousebb,
My lochia (discharge after the c-sect) is quite minimal. Flow was lesser then my usual heavy period flow. I guess in differs from person to person.
Maternity Pads,
I used the Pureen ones and also the mothercare ones. Equally comfy... They are longer and thicker then the sofy night pads. After delivery its quite inconvenient to constantly get in and out of bed, so better to use a long and thick pad.
Gionna,
My DH and I wanted to choose a unique and meaningful name for baby. Mikayla means "gift from God" or "Who is like God". But it seems the name doesn't sit well with some people who just can't register the name when we tell them about our baby's name. But we think it suits her well and love it!
Mummies to be...GAMBETE! The end reward for the body discomfort and stress is all worth it.
Take Care all!

morning mommies!
thanks for all the advice on what to bring and what to pack.
who's going for the mediacorp thingy? i scared go there for half a day and all it is is advertising for products and all the unnecessary hoohaa about celebrity moms even though there are freebies leh. But not a big fan of crowds also, just interested in the breastfeeding bit.
Rebecca,
going to Novena to check out jammies today. I think i shall bring four sets (2 dresses and 2 seperate top and bottoms), i roll around alot at night and dress jammies tend to ride up then my belly and legs will be cold.. pfft.
Do you remember which floor?
mint,
my replacement very good. she's a senior sped teacher with alot of experience, i actually don't mind staying in the job to learn from her. now still getting my assessments, lesson plans in order.. i calculated after T4W7 after SA2, not much to do already.
re: maternity leave
i dunno how my hr calculate leh. i go on the 29th Sept, and go back on the 28th Jan. also filled up the 12 week ML form. Then, i have annual leave to clear also.. are you ladies going to clear this year's childcare leave? I read from the mom site, it's 6 days prorated which means 3 days this year as of August for mommies who havent cleared. Next year onwards, 3 days paid by co, 3 days paid by govt.
P.S. i also don't need letter to start ML but my hr has requested 3 things from me. copy of marriage cert, copy of birth cert and original of the mc gynae will write to certify i gave birth on this date.
ok.. hungry.. time to make milo and cheese sandwich.~

Gd morning all!
This year childcare leave will be pro-rated. If you have taken 2 days, only left one day to take. Unless your company is very generous to start with 6 days for the rest of 2008. They have yet to legislated this. Most likely legislation will be in end Oct.
Btw, does any of you have swollen feet? Mine is very swollen these few days and a bit sore when I walk.
Hi whitepaper, ur baby is growing very well. Seems like most of ur babies are asborbing well

I'm lucky, not struck by swollen feet. I guess it's common during late pregnancy. Do you want to try raising your legs up when you sit or lie down? Should help!
Yah baby absorbing too well le... hope he won't be a big baby...

At this stage, I also find that I'm losing weight. Dont know is it my gal has absorbed whatever I eat or what. But the weight which I gained is still a lot, around 11-12kg. Hopefully can maintain at this weight or lost some more which I dont mind too. Hand and feet all swollen le.</font>
