Oh ya... 20th is also my boy's birth date. So if choose that day, then they will be exactly 18mths apart. But that means this is my last weekend enjoying. After this, will be another whole episode of adjustment in life.... hehe... can't really accept the fact that this pregnancy is ending real soon.
Anyway, really had a good time wif #1 today. Hubby working. Brought him to my friend's house and later to East Coast. Had a good time. Hope #1 doesn't feel neglected when #2 comes along.

Kittyng and Jamie,
Thanks for the reassurance.
Jamie,
Thanks.Bb has put on and is now 1.9kg at 33wks+. Bb has turned down 1/5 but not fully down yet nor engaged. But doc says nothing to worry, as still got time to turn down.
Jes and Sherryl,
Second that Doc Ong's laughter makes one really comfortable. He knows when to get serious and when to make us laugh

Hello mommies, just back from my movie date, I enjoyed it tremendously. Wanted to check out Hwa Xia since I am at Vivo City but got there too late and it was closed. I also wanna see cute babies swimming inside happily!
<font color="ff0000">Hopper</font>
My gynae, Dr KT Tan said it will only be weekly after the next checkup at my 38th week. Oh well, isn't it better? Can save money...
I am looking fwd to my photo session, is yours gonna be on FB? Are you in the group <font color="ff0000">HBB</font> created?
<font color="ff0000">HBB</font>
Thanks for your recipe of sorts for the tea, my mom will be the one doing it for me, and she usually makes it very sweet. I must remember to tell her less sugar, else won't be easy to lose weight!
<font color="ff0000">Mashy</font>
I hope we don't wait till our babies are 6 months old before meeting up! That is such a long time. Are you still active in your #1 thread?
<font color="ff0000">Babyethan</font>
Wah, so soon you are are having your operation. Pretty special for siblings to share a birthday and certainly less work/effort for you when it comes to organising future birthday parties...

Hi Morning Mummies.
Like you Gina, I am unable to sleep since 11pm lat night. I kept tossing around the bed like anything.. Very bad.. Also kept having funny dreasms.
Sam
I agree with you on the having weird dreams. Am in my 35 weeks now and I do suddenly have fears on the amablical cord thingie.. U are not alone.. I guess mothers to be tend to be a little paranoid over our bb's health.
FOZ,
I tot usually we will start to have weekly visit after the 36 weeks? How come your next visit is 38 weeks?
Beverly/BBethan

Gina,
Just to share my #1 experience. 1st one was induced. So we checked in the middle of night around 10pm. Went to the labour ward and gynae inserted pills. Was sent back to normal ward to sleep. As we booked 2-beded, hubby was not allowed to stay in the ward. So he has to go home and come back tmrw morning when I was "officially" going to the labour ward waiting for labour. Thereafter, hubby allowed to accompany throughout labour.
HBB
Really pei fu yr energy level. Can survive so well with so little sleep. U sure hv no prob if baby wakes up at night. Last night i finally have 6hrs of sleep. Tired out my #1 and he turned in at 9pm. Managed to finish my housework by 11pm and get to sleep from then. Feel so different today... hehe
FOZ
Wow... so good. Can still go movie date. Who looks after yr #1 when u guys are out? Long long time didn't watch movie. And think will be another long long time for next movie.

If baby/yr own body is not ready to be induce, may end up in an emergency c-sect just like my case. If given a choice, i won't want to induce. Better to let nature take its own course. Like what yr gynae said, if u r dilated well enuf, no prob. also sometimes baby may not be ready n unable to go down the birth canal. of course, such things can also happen even in a normal non-induced labour.
Jamie,
Very excited to see baby's arrival. But also getting the jittery too cos it means another readjustment in life.

BBethan,
I agree with you, many of my friends told me not to induced.. many reasons. Bb/own body may not be ready, heard its more painful (not sure if its true or not) and induced usually when bb is too big now to wait till full term which may needs c-section..
I am totally enjoying the bb inside me now, i love her kicks and her movements in my tummy even though I cant sleep well or even walk long but its such a marvelous feeling and I am just so overwhelmed at times still! I am sure I am going to miss my little one in my stomach when she is out to meet everyone. ..
Like you, I am also excited to see bb's arrival and getting jittery cos of the perceived painful labour.. I am really so so scared.. heard so much abt the side effects of epidural, painful labour stories, etc.. I think for you, even though you are kinda more experience cos its your 2nd one but somehow you do still feels jittery..its so common among mothers. Nonetheless, am sure you are going to adjust well to your new additional to your family!
You have prepared all your things already right?

Blessed morning all mommies.. realized some of you don't sleep early.
My body system is running wildly these few days..
I had my first constipation since pregnancy starts.. Couldn't go on Fri aft last done on Wed, then finally did a successful push yesterday afternoon. So afraid that I push the wrong muscles.. I also start to wake up around 4:30 or 5am due to hunger, then knock out again till this time. Some days, I am very sleepy the whole day, and some days I am full of energy. So unpredictable..

HBB, u managed to get the Thai coconut? I have a qn, as I can only insert a straw into the nut for the juice, I felt rather sayang to waste the flesh, so you know how we can hack open the husk to get the flesh? I tried to use my chopper knife but it's hard nut to crack, and chipped off a corner of my knife(!!!) so far, I have been throwing away the nut after drinking..

Good morning mummies,
Have anyone felt a sharp pain at the lower center right part of the tummy before? I've been getting that for the last 2 days. I have problems walking as it hurts whenever i walk or stand. the pain only goes away when i lie down and sometimes when i sit its ok. but can't sit too long too as the pain will come also.
I'm walking so slow now, practically hogging the walkway. sometimes have to stop becoz of the pain too.

Good morning, mommies! Slept okay? Last night, my helper slept with my #1 so I actually had an undisturbed night of sleep so I am feeling perky and alert, whoa!
<font color="ff0000">Babyethan</font>
Yeah, hubby and I love watching movies and we used to go very often though now, it has been reduced to an average of once a month or so. The theatre is always full, luckily I booked early so we had the best seats in the house
Oh and helper help look after #1 when we are at the movie.
<font color="ff0000">Kitty</font>
My friend told me when she experienced contracttions, it's like menstrual cramps but 10X more painful. Could you possibly be...? How bad are the cramps and at what interval?
<font color="ff0000">HBB</font>
Didn't know coconut flesh increases cholesterol, then I better tell hubby not to consume, he has very high cholesterol. Good chatting with you last night so your ant thingy work?
<font color="ff0000">Jamie</font>
I suppose my gynae thinks I am doing okay so she said next visit at 38th week? No clue but I am okay with it. Though she said many women deliver earlier than EDD, it appeared unlikely in my case.
<font color="ff0000">Kim</font>
Sorry to hear about your constipation. All better now after Saturday huh?
Drink more water? That always help. I eat loads of fruits everyday so seldom have constipation.
Anyone has a good food home delivery to recommend? I am lazy to cook lunch and my helper has to go sort out her work permit thingy so I thought of ordering for hubby, me and a friend who is coming over for lunch. Erm, I don't want McDonalds or KFC or such fast food. Thank you.
