LFB, as long as u still have the pain, it might not be an upset stomach, so just call and put your mind at ease. Ya, it's very frustrating to call doc I feel, that's why till now I haven't called my doc to ask how come my arms are numb haha. Will just ask him when I see him on Sat...
Ladies, I think I am heaty. Think got ulcer coming up and throat feels a bit sore. What can I eat that is cooling, but still fun?
Is there something that can be taken in dessert form that's also cooling? (can kill 2 birds w 1 stone mah...)

Tubbymummy,
re numb arm, I had that since 20 weeks! Asked my doc, he said it's pregnancy symptom. Some get leg numbness and cramps, others like will get it in our arms. I am still having it, daily!!! So my fingers are constantly numb and crampy! Makes flipping books, handling small items(like pins or paperclips) difficult! He said this will go off after we give birth. For me, 13 weeks to go!

<font color="0077aa">Whoa... I feel like I'M the one who popped - with all the congratulatory posts. Heehee...
Sis had a lot of bleeding early morn at abt 3-4am.
Called gynae, who said the blood was coming from uterus (??) and recommended emergency C-sec.
Poor woman is in much pain from the Caesarian and sulking cos she wanted to try au naturel.
Apprehensive as to whether or not she can manage breastfeeding, being in pain and all.
Little Princess was born @ 6.26am weighing 2.8kg and measuring 48cm. She's nice, chubby and pink with long legs!
Slumbering when nurse brought her in for first latch on.
We left the family with the lactation specialist and will be heading back tonight.
Tubbym~ & sweethalo, thanks for the heads up on Moses' Basket mattress!! I'll go check it out... some time eventually. *so laidback*
Happy SAHM, breathlessness not too bad anymore... backache comes and goes... Remember to watch your posture and do the cat arch exercise. Go on all 4s, with hands planted shoulder width apart. Arch back towards ceiling, then dip it so that bump dips towards floor/bed. Do 10 sets or something. It's supposed to help ease back pains.
Tubbym~, I know about the perineum massage technique. It's quite explicit. Don't know if I'd be willing to ask hubby to do it for me although he has offered. It just seems so UNsexy.</font>

<font color="0077aa">sweethalo, to be honest, my sister didn't look that bad. She had good colour in her face and was able to speak.
Just that her voice was raspy from dryness of the throat and she couldn't cough or laugh cos it hurt.
All the babies in the nursery are SO adorable. All swaddled up - twitching, yawning, hiccuping...
Seems like a lot of girlies in the nursery this morning @ Mt A.</font>

LFB, ya, I also remembered you had the numb arms thing. Mine started with left arm, then after a few days, right arm also kenna. Some days it doesn't hurt as much (like yesterday woke up right arm was sore, but gradually got better), so I could still drive and go gai gai. But today woke up, left arm completely no strength at all, still sore now. So on bad days, I just stay at home and sulk. Now it's causing my shoulders to hurt too, and I can feel the shoulder pain throughout my sleep. So we must LOON till give birth ah? Sian.... Tried asking my hubby give me arm massage, hopefully increase circulation, he press SO HARD. I keep asking him to go softer, but his softest is still too painful for me. I give up.
sweethalo, no ba, I thought the emergency number is our own doc's?? maybe we all declare our emergency numbers here and compare hahaha... Eh, birds nest cooling or not har? My mum just bought and brought to my place.
Jackie, good good, then it's a complete relaxation escapade! Eh, but when no. 2 come along, won't be so easy to escape liao...
Cassey, woohoo! So exciting right? Sis' baby is here, yours will be here soon! Now I'm very interested in your sister's post c-sec recovery! Hehehe... But can still try to BF lah, do it lying down sideways so that won't press on wound. For the perineum massage, maybe u try doing it yourself then?

tubbym,
i was like u when i was expecting my girl. i was in love with mothercare. everything had to be from there. but i must say its worth every cent cos their stuff goes a loooong way. the rompers and sleepsuits are soft and thick, doesnt lose their shape after numerous machine washes.
btw the 7-day GAP rompers are gorgeous! i like such cheezy lines on children's clothes haha.
i also went down to hyperstore dis morning to have my carseat changed liao. thks for ur advice

FirstMum, that's great! Did they ask u a lot of questions, like how come you're changing etc etc? You got the smooth fabric type? In what colour?
Cassey, yeah, the description does seem eeky. Not very sexy even to ourselves. Oh, I also made my order with Gmarket, bought the Goon diapers and the penguin box of wipes, couldn't resist! Haha... I'm not normally into cutesy things AT ALL, but think pregnancy is turning me into a monster. They said they'll deliver this afternoon 1-5pm. So excited hehe.

Tubbym~, I think MotherCare's Moses' baskets are still smaller. But I'll go check them out for ideas on cushioning.
I hope the penguin dispenser box doesn't disappoint. Pls stop getting multiple necessities and get your little girl some clothes!
Re: Chi Names - Sis and hubby stuck on this too. Only just bought book of Chi names yesterday..
Have selected English name, but didn't expect to pop before they went thru the book. Haha!</font>

Ya lor, last night my dad text me that my area got outbreak, ask me to AVOID. I was wondering, how to avoid?? Not say the mosquito will have a big helium balloon attached that says "DENGUE" and I can run from them. Maybe now I need to apply repellent every time before leaving home. So troublesome. I got the Goon size S. U still wanna combine for the Nepia? Was thinking of getting one more pack of size S, then can try both brands hehe.

Hehe, ok later I take the birds nest. My mum said take it first thing in the morning on empty stomach better. Oh well, since I feel like taking now, shall just do so haha. I can wait till later to order Nepia, no rush, anyway I'll be ordering S size, not say can use the moment the kid is born anyway. You let me know when u wanna order, no rush.
The repellent chemical thing is DEET is it? I'm using my own all natural one, so should be ok... Otherwise can buy thos stick on repellent patch, can stick on clothes, but that thing doesn't always work. I once had a patch on, and still got bitten. Chay.

<font color="0077aa">sweethalo, saw this off March thread and thought you might want to if you don't already know! Quote:
"Total bill for 2-bedded was $4,900+, medisave covers abt $3,400 so balance is cash.
but mine was for e-csect and 4d3n. not sure for natural delivery how much it would be.
btw, gleneagles gave a free pack with a nice diaper bag and some free sample items and lots of adv brochures."

hello everyone, have just been reading past few days but not posting. this working frm home thing is driving me crazy...i just stay indoors the whole day and go online. clear emails, check this thread, take part in sprees - sigh..i think i also have tubbylitis. if you see the number of things i buy for my girl, you'd think i was expecting twins. not that i buy 2 of everything except there are so many things. oh..for the record i do have 2 strollers - but for different reasons. hehe
this morning my items from taka got delivered. got the babysafe mattress 28 x 52 and my aprica stroller! now i know it's called calcobed pirate model or something..so happy but both i havent open, just left it near the doorway.
btw, MTBs who bought babysafe - anyone bought same size as me? do you know if aussino sheets can fit? i hope so cos i bought 3 sets last week! if cannot fit, any idea where i can get sheets that fit?
btw, last sun i bought a new maxicosi cover from baby avenue. paid $125 for it, was magical rose - like greenish flowers like that. very nice. wanted to buy the purple velvet one but scared too hot for baby, and cant imagine the cleanup if baby pukes on it. yelch!

<font color="0077aa">sweethalo, I'm not sure but I'd think so. I was wondering how much emergency C-sec @ Gleneagles would come up to...
Upfront 1.5k doesn't seem TOO bad hey?
Mt A bathtub nice meh? I don't know if I'll end up using Mt A after all, but got my own one just in case. Heehee

sweethalo, the Red Flame one is a bright red one right? Did u get the 2008 series, or the new 2009 Mico series? If I'm not wrong, the 2008 red flame is in the rougher material.

sweethalo, Jayne sending out my reg mail to me today, I should be receiving it tomorrow.
caramelle, the Aussino ppl converted the measurements of the cot sheets for me, if I don't recall wrongly, should be around 28x52, so yours should be ok.
