Swollen can be due to long time stand or walking cos usually when preggy blood flow slower so all at the bottom le thats y I ask u to try massage abit to push p the blood does help for me .I also learn it from a tv show wan.
Was advised to buy nursing bra only abt one month before EDD. Cos nearing that time, the bust size would expand further. If not, buy now and cant fit later = waste money.
caca,
Asura79 say is true. Buy nursing bra only abt 1 mth b4 EDD cos when BM establish, breast may upsize even further. Example from B cup to D cup wor!
Ladies if u have added me in FB, pls let me know your nick in forum otherwise i don't know who is who leh, tks
where do u all usually buy the maternity clothes? I just went to The Maternity House at Marina Sq and each dress cost almost like $80-$100. Very costly..
Kome,
Thanks for explaining how spree works. Is the one u joined still open?
Re swollen feet, my mum also told me not to eat too salty, else later will get swollen feet
Re stretchmarks, I've been applying olive virgin oil on tummy, inner & outer tighs, butt and top part of breasts cos I've seen pple with bad stretchmarks on their breasts b4.

Higher end nursing bra will cost abt $39+, last time my hb helped me buy those low end one also cost abt $9.90. Heehee.....quite good when doing breastfeeding.
yes..be careful..I fell down yest on the street..very slippery..luckily I fell down on my knee touching the street first and hubby was holding my hand and pulled me up spontaneously..
but a bit shocked after that..
I apply it on my thighs, hips, stomach and breasts(avoid nipples). Now that it has sunk in that stretch marks are REAL, I'm going to apply the Elancyl I bought, dutifully. Let's see hw much it helps.
oh dear miss83, lucky u r ok. Are your shoes slippery? These days when I walk on wet floors, esp if my hubby around me, I will hold him tight tight, haha, scared of falling.
Kome, sorry to trouble u again...can u send me the link of the mallonline BP that u say is still open? I can't seem to find it leh..Thks!
Kome, thanks. No wonder I could'nt find it cos I was looking under Marketplace & Exchange Corner: Bulk Purchase and not the spree overseas site. For the spree overseas site, it says "restricted to current members who activated their account before 15 November 2006. For future application, only members who have been active for one year or more can apply to join".
If I only join the forum this yr, means I can't join this spree isit?
