Piggytoh, u need to get a good therapist. I only ever did once in my entire life. Just before I delivered my #1. Cos I heard if dun make clean clean before hand, the nurse will shave u. I din want that, so I got myself clean before my delivery. The lady that did for me was very good. She kept talking to me and distracting me. Of course, each time when she is ready to pull, she just kept talking and when I don't gancheong, it's actually not so painful. I hope she is still there. Will do it this time again.
Hi all mummies,
Thanks for your concern. Actually i fell down at home.. Was giddy as i am having migraine and i never watch my steps.. I also accidentally swept some magazines off the rack and it fell on my stomach =(
I wanted to go to the gynae ytd but it was raining heavily. My hubby called the gynae and he said as long as no bleeding within 2 hrs should be ok.. He told my hubby to massage my tummy to reassure the baby that everything is ok... He wanted me to rest at home but dont walk so much.. Today i still went to work as i dont wish to think so much.. I already had a sleepless night as i am being paranoid.. Really hope everything will be ok.

re: constipation
i start having consitpation since i started on the supplements given by the doc. or was it due to pregnancy? dunno lah. but anyway my stools are really hard. at times i really hv to push so hard then can come out. the funny thing is i always pretend tat i'm in labour & i told myself die die must push out. cos baby is even bigger, harder to push out. hahahaha!

jermaine, if there's no bleeding, dun worry too much. monitor and assure the baby. the other day i also trip over something & i almost fly. luckily i din. told DH tat luckily i din fly & fall or else baby die. he scolded me for saying such things....
the other day, my golden retriever(35-38kg)also pounced on me while playing & stepped on my tummy. it was a little painful but it went away after a while. i think baby is quite strong inside lah. sometimes we jus scaring ourselves. before i found out tat i was preggy, i was still taking those thrilling amusement rides in US & climbing up & down at Grand Canyon. no harm done to baby.

Hey try taking prune juice for the constipation. My experience was that was really bad after delivery. With all the confinement food (ie ginger), everythg was so heaty and plus I had a long labour (end up with some piles), going to toilet is a pain. Thank god for prune juice...
BabyS, i am trying not to walk so much also.. Butt hurts.. Lol!
Zen, my hubby has a very active golden retriever at home too.. He likes to pounce on my tummy.. So what i do now is to carry a cane when i walk near him.. In that case he dont dare to approach me.. U must take care too

pegsfur, the pain is more in the middle part cos more sensitive. the other parts same as bikini wax. but dun worry, it's bearable.
where did u do yr waxing? i used to do it in a lady's hse in cck. now i do it at strip.
pink, right now i'm taking folic acid, neurogainPB & iberet-folic-500. the last one is the worst tasting. i feel like puking when i smell it.

Ladies, if you have dogs at home, please take care of yourselves, the dogs simply love to play, they don't understand that you are expecting. Like my neighbours have to chain up their dogs, if not they loves to pounce on familiar faces as if they are playing with us.

i got pounced onz by my son, 13kg.. the other day.. got a shock, when he suddenly sit on my stomach..
Just thought i share this info i found while googling for constipation in 2nd trimester..
Constipation
By the fourth month of pregnancy, many women notice their digestive system has slowed down and they are distressed by infrequent, hard stools. An increase in the hormone progesterone during pregnancy contributes to constipation by slowing the waves of muscle contractions that move food down the digestive tract. Digestion is slowed so that nutrients have more time to be absorbed in order to supply the developing fetus. As the uterus grows larger and presses on the lower bowel, this can also add to constipation. Ab
There are many ways you can cope with pregnancy-induced constipation:
increase the amount of fiber you consume, including fruit (prunes are great), vegetables, and bran;
drink large amounts of water;
use the bathroom as regularly as you can-whenever you have to go, you should. Be aware of the signals your bowel is giving you; and
exercise, which can help move food through your system.
Talk to your doctor about other measures for easing constipation if these methods fail. You may be advised to take a mild laxative such as milk of magnesia, a fiber supplement such as psyllium (Metamucil), or a stool softener such as docusate sodium (Colace). Avoid such remedies as enemas, cod liver oil, and harsh laxatives.

Pink, mine just started to show. I can still wear my normal clothing, and low waist line shorts.
Baby S, emg is they connect electro to the head to do a check for any abnormal growth as pregnant ladies are not advise to go to FMRI. Taslyn, became unconscious on one occasion and her nose was bleeding so her dh sent her to the hospital, so they are checking her brain to see what causes the unconsciousness.

Piggy, yea, that what's my dr said and she told me, ms can go off and come back too. Crossing my fingers that it will subside and don't come back.
For me now, I feel hungry in the afternoon, I take small meals and with snacks of fruits. Dinner is very little but I take more fruits before I go to bed.

pinkmama,
Mine is oso 6! And yes, she behaves like a puppy too .. forever chewing stuff. Yesterday i took her for a long walk in the garden and both of us thoroughly enjoyed it. I haven't walk her for so long ever since i got preggy cos was tired. But yesterday it was not so hot and was very windy, and i'm not too tired so brought her for the long walk.
Half way thru, we sat down and enjoyed the winds, and i asked her if she liked the walk? She put her paws on my lap and licked me ... hahaha .. i guess she said she like the walk too

pris, i gave birth at 10am, so never eat breakfast so by lunch time I was starving already. I even reminded the nurses that they have to reserve a set of lunch for me. What time did you deliver?
jermaine, hope you're feeling better. Since there is no bleeding, I'm sure things are ok. I also had a couple of nasty falls when I was preggy with no. 2, both in 2nd tri. Once was in the bathroom, slipped on the soap and another time was chasing my daughter in church. Both times fell on the bum quite hard. But it seems like the baby is very well cushioned inside
pink, i'm intending to rebond my hair too. Its a big mess. I've heard of preggies who rebond and its ok.

So cute ....dogs really r our best friends huh?
I miss walking my dog. Since I preggie & gynae said no excercise yet, it's my dh & mil who have been walking my dog.
Btw do take care when walking your dog. The other day dh bend down to pick up my dog poo, & he got up too fast. He sprained his butt muscle and was in pain for 2 days. Have to take a jab before he recovered !
