Welcome Ling to the motherhood!!

He gave me medicine to take if i feel discomfort. So far althought its big but i didnt feel any discomfort so i jus let it be leh. Cant we?

caramelle,
dat day when my gynae says he dun encourage epi, i was like HUH?? he says use laughing gas or the painkiller jab lor. lawrence ang always helps patients to save $$ one.. he says if dun take epi, can save $300..
i also dunno whether im taking epi or nt...but i heard dat for his patients, even if the patient cannot tahan pain must die die take epi, his epi dosage wont be very strong too.
so it's like not taking it like dat.
actually im very scared of jab.. and epi is jab into the spine... it alrdy freaks me out lor.

caramelle, hehe.. I've been pretty good. Went out for dinner on Sunday though, but since dinner is a sitting down affair, I think doc will approve. But after dinner I did walk to the bookstore across the river to buy a book (entertainment for this week), and after that, I felt SO super tired, feet pain, leg pain, pelvis pain, belly pain, back pain, all came in one shot. So I'm out of action for now. Sore throat now too, wondering if I'm coming down with some bug... Hey, for piles right, remember don't sit down for extended periods of time ok? I remember my piles got better for last 2 mths, then of late since I've been home, the bleeding came back, and I think it's cos I sit down all the time, and the pressure on the butt and the blood pooling there made it come back. It was only then that I remembered that last time, my nurse aunty always told my mum not to sit for too long, can make piles worse.
So you try to get up and walk around your desk every now and then ok? When get home, lie down instead of sitting down...
Shelisa, it's so nice that there are some kind souls who got in touch with you! I hope they can help you too... Have you been googling PUPPP? I heard of this before, but never knew what the symptoms were, just thought the name looked like "puppy" haha... Ok, I shall go google it now.
sweethalo, Glen E no wireless then how?? Eh, quickly go and subscribe mobile broadband kekeke
ahnetsan, I visited Dr Ang before, several years back, when I kept having menstrual cramps kinda feelings for no reason. I found him quite good too
In fact, he was my next choice of doc in case things didn't work out with my own doc. Thankfully I'm happy with my own doc lah, otherwise will feel bang, cos Dr Ang's charges are so much more affordable!

Annie,
Pls tell qi7 don't worry too much about her bb, quite common in small bb. Tell her to rest more so that she could have more breastmilk for her princess. This is what she needs most at this moment.
Previously I did mentioned my friend's daughter who were born @ 1.6 kg also stayed @ KKH's ICU for 3 weeks, now the bb perfectly ok. And for KKH, the medical fees fully claimed using Medisave.

Shelisa, ok, did some googling, and it DOES sound like your condition. Just ask your doc point blank this thur whether it is PUPPP or not. I don't think she can give you any remedy for it also lah, cos all the websites and forums that I visited all seem to say there's no cure. But at least getting a confirmation from her would be nice! Someone said using Ego QV range of body wash and lotion helped, cos it is non-drying, you wanna give it a try? Someone else said bathe without soap at all...

Thanks Annie for the update.
Do help us to send our regards to her.

Tubbymummy, I heard of EGO product too. That time i show my gynae, she say it will dry up my skin and make it even itch. So she prescibe 'hospigel' for me to bath. The nurse did say before if im gg to bath often like more then 2 time, she say better use without soap sometime.
Annie, yup. indeed is a grest news from qi7. Thanks for passing our concern to her.

creamer, my gynae say better to try and shrink it because if you're doing vaginal birth, then the baby will press even more and the piles will hurt after that. abit like what happen to me yesterday cos i was straining so hard that after that i can feel the "bubbles' like bigger and swollen. i put warm cloth and the cream on it, after a while the pain is not so noticeable anymore. besides fibre, must also drink lots of water because another reason the bubbles are there is that the body is absorbing water from the anus.
ahnetsan, my antenatal class at KK say the jab (not epidural jab) is not so good because it's absorbed into the blood and baby will come out sleepy2 like that. epidural is better because it goes straight to your nerves, but like you heard from Cassey's case, some people will start to get shivers. i think if can avoid and i can tahan, i will go natural so no need to worry about all these side effects.
CONGRATS to qi7! hope baby will recover quickly and join at mummy's side soon..
Tubby, good on you. yes stay at home more..my mum always say stay at home very safe. i have been sitting way too much at my desk. last sat was out with hubby in his car and i couldnt sit still cos so pain...but now not so bad. will get up now and take water from pantry

Shelisa, it will BURST??? i scared lah like that!!

Annie, yup tell qi7 we're all waiting for her and baby to come home safely so don't worry about it. baby needs her mummy milk most now to gain weight.

caramelle, ya ya, take opportunities to take short "walks" away from your desk, like go toilet, get water, go over to someone's desk to ask something instead of email... Working in office, sometimes u end up sitting down the entire day without noticing!
I got hardly anywhere to walk to in my house, but I just make myself get up to get a fruit, or drink water, or try to semi recline (like slouch to the side or something) on the couch if I've been sitting too long. Gonna go eat dragon fruit now, lotsa fibre there hehe.
Shelisa, ya, if u shower after work, maybe u would feel the need to use some kind of soap lah, cos whole day outside, like collect a lot of dirt haha. But if u shower in the morning after waking up, then just do so without soap. Use cool water, let the water soothe the itch. Remember after showering, immed pat dry your skin, don't let the water evaporate from your skin, cos it will cause your skin to dry out more, and will itch more. So the Hospigel or whatever, is more moisturising/gentle than Ego, Cetaphil etc is it?
Annie, thanks for updating us on qi7. Glad to hear that her baby is already getting better!

TubbyMummy, as for that im not sure. As gynae prescribe to me so i use hospigel only. As i don't dare to use any brand as i scare it might trigger even more. Im trying to look for moisturer cream. Any recommend? Best is those unscent or mild type. Sometime im lazy to bath, as after bath need to apply the cream again. Each time apply the cream take me 1 hr. I kinda off wanna give up, just leave it there.
