yup dr gave mi the probiotic ydae... i took it myself when i had stomach flu b4.. i din know that can be given to babies.. hehe.. now i know..
i oso stop ice cream (dun give it to her daily.. just on n off)

so far her diarrhea stopped le.. *cross fingers*

jules:
yesh.. water bag bursting really shorten labour alot.. but i went straight to hospital after it burst coz i din know what to expect.. so quickly go though dr say can tu lar.. n heng i did.. coz waterbag burst at 10+-11pm... then no pain.. just water.. so shower n took cab down.. no contractions at all.. hehe... 3+am at hospital then felt contraction pain ard 3-5min apart.. after that i nearly die lar coz no epi... suffering ended 4 hrs later when my ger was delivered..
i fully dialted from 1cm til 10 cm in that 4 hrs.. so this time i really hope waterbag will burst too! hahaha

come to think of it, i cannot remember how painful it was like woh.. only know i felt as though there was a big poo poo n i cannot wait to push it out.. hahaha.. now my big "poo poo" is staring wide eyed at me.. lol
 


oh yes, was majorly pissed off by hb when i was pushing too... kept saying things like 'you're pushing wrongly",'must do this must do that' yadayada.. at that time i was already so tired.. so REALLy bit his head off and told him to SHUT up. hahahhaa
happy.gif


so must warn ur hbs not to talk nonsense during delivery ah! not like they've delivered b4 right?
 
weishy, my recovery from natural birth was really fast too, Kai borned in the morning by the afternoon, I was walking around the hospital and nursing. Episiotomy also recover in less than a week, gynae said that could be I walk alot to help in the circulation and healing.
 
tas, the probiotic, you have to get those for infant and toddler one.

Jules, haahaa, dh was more kan cheong than I am. I was just waiting for gynae and midwife to tell me to push haahaa, so just relax do help in labour. Was telling dh if I know kai coming at end of week 36 close to week 37, I could have bought the taboo game early to play in the delivery suite while waiting to push haahaa. In fact, the day before, I was still washing new bb clothing, cleaning the house and went shopping in the afternoon.
 
pris
wah u got high threshold of pain ar! i was so pain i cannot tahan liao.. plus my liquor level was low.. so bb in distress also lar... coz my dilation happened so fast within that 4 hrs (they say normal can take 10hrs or more) so i was glad that my "suffering" was not prolonged.. hehehe

re; epi
i wanted.. but both hb n gynae din allow and i was like 8cm dilated and like prolly 30min-45min away from delivering.. so i was denied of that..

jules:
hahahha.. my hb dare not say anything to irritate me... he just guai guai stand next to the bed for me to grab his arms... lol
 
Pris:same le can walk and go poo on that evening itself :0 so was good for me...cant imagine epidural etc needles poking into me....i hv this thing about needles.....yucks!!!!!!makes my legs go wobbly
sad.gif
 
Tas, my dilation from 7cm to 10cm was really fast too. Was in hospital in the morning, dh called both our workplace, by 11am kai was borned. Think doing sports do help in high threshold. haahaa.

Just hope #2 will be as easy, smooth and fast too.
 
pris
the probiotic the dr give mi hor.. is the same as what my dr gave me last time.. but 25% of the dosage i took lar...

jules:
wat rice water? always hear pple say rice water... but dunno how it is prepared.. is it water frm washing rice? * blur
 
weishy, haahaa, my gynae is those who pro-natural, she encourage me to go with painkiller but the screaming and shouting along the passage way to the delivery suite made me chicken out haahaa.

Weishy and Tas, maybe I can meet you ladies at Sun plaza during 1st week of June to try the monobo pretty and get it if I can wear, no sure whether leg expand. Cross finger can wear haahaa.
 
pris
yes walking helps.. in fact gynae told me to climb stairs after wk32.. but i din lar.. coz when preggy with Eviana, i was pukey and tired all the time.. no energy at all... but with Eaxonn, i will do more exercises this time ard.. prolly morning n evening walks for half hr each day...

oh no.. eaxonn's kicks has graduated from just kicking to sliding his feet across my tummy.. lol.. i really think he turn down liao... think i'll pay gynae a visit next wk.. n try to catch his face on 3D, else i cannot see his face b4 he comes out loo
 
Tas, porridge water. boil rice grains as in like porridge but very dilute, just feed bb with the water. It works wonder for diarrhoea.
 
pris
ohhhh... u know how fast our thread moves right??? hehe... i go google on it later..
now to feed her the probiotics.. dr says 30min b4 food.. i cooked some plain porridge for her loo
 
Tas, without the epidural, I was also very relax till the dr came to give me the epidural, coz I am so scare after hearing all the scream. I was walking from my place to the carpark, climb up carpark somemore, joke with my dh in the car and insisted walking to the delivery suite at the hospital but the staff there refuse to let me. So before they hooked me on with machine, I was still walking in the room, go to toilet, etc.

Then sleep as the midwife told me to do so when they called and waited for my gynae to arrive. Then waited for like an hour before the dr came to give me epidural, which I nap haahaa.

In fact, with or without the epidural, the pain was bearable, just epidural make me numb, otherwise, the pain is not really that great either just like going to pass bowel.
 
Tas,
me not working lah...just happen that my #1 woke up early and i need to see doc...
me now at home so able to surf net...

just reach home from my appt...
bb 24 wks now 780gms...
doc predict #2 will be approx the same weight as #1...2.8kg...
but i hope so...

Re:BPA free bottles - Pigeon
--Large NTUC outlets have...eg.bedok, tampines
--Kiddy palace sure have and whole yr 10% disc if u r a member(worth it if u desprately in need of a bottle)...
--Isetan(seen in parkway-katong)
--BHG(Tampines, Bugis)
--JL should prolly have too..

however i realise that some mummies(MTBs) didn't know which bottles are BPA free when they see it cos the BPA free ones are in Jap wordings...
 
weather is melting me, so hot and humid today. I have not gotten any bottles yet, probably used those glass bottles my friend have passed to me coz not sure whether the teats in Oz fit, so dh told me no point buying yet. If not will use medela bottle since I am getting my medela pump in style advanced in Oz with warranty in Oz about the same price as the spree here and will add on more bottle then.

I have a feeling my bottles are more for storage then to feed bb coz I most likely latch on most time and pump to increase bm, friend loaning me her PISA. haahaaa
 
where is a good place to buy cheap and good spaghetti strips maternity top, coz only about 11 weeks to go, I dun wanna spend so much on maternity wear anymore. Rather use the money for post natal clothing.
 
pris,
so good...
all my gfs...still single...
so only they have the chance to borrow mine(if mine still working by then)...lol...
 
cloudme, my old pis mil given it away. I will only be here till end of the year and then return to Oz, so no point getting here if I can loan from friends.
 
kiddy palace is having sale...15% for non-member and 20% for members store-wide...signed up for the member n bought so stuff yday....i feel their prices is same as dept store price, with 20%, its like normal isetan n robinsons sales less the rebate...less the long q n crowds...hee

Sharon

My visit is 5 weeks apart cos gynae is on leave today. For those medela bottles I will just use as feeding and storage bah, since they can be in freezer. Till now I still don't get it. =( To get free glass bottle, I have to ask nurse for sample of FM?

yen
I got those medela BPA free bottles from USA, GST included cos I got it along with my Freestyle. Atfirst I only wanted to buy freestyle lor, then browse browse until hands itchy and order more stuffs cos they are sooooo much cheaper compare to SG. I got my medela pump &amp; save bags - 50 packs for only S$25.82 (incl GST) and saw OG selling 20 packs de for S$35... Till now I am still wondering if my eyes see wrongly!

Where did you get your Freestyle? Weird, mine comes with four 150ml bottles, 4 solid lids also but got 1 slow flow teat, 1 collar and 1 cap attach with one of the bottle.

cloudme
Not very good to let baby use not BPA free bottles hor? well, it comes with the Pigeon sterilizer in a package. Maybe can use the teats. Is there BPA free teats and not BPA free teats?

dolliepollie
o_o wow the bra clips looks good. But only $4 each! Can make cleavage somemore. I always wonder how the hell those ang moh did it.

sharon
wa, are we suppose to give kikilala the mattress measurement only? I gave her the actual measurement for all the items instead of mattress measurement.

mickey
waa I am still deciding. =( Need to get some review from mommies who used it before first.

Cheeky Bon Bon NURSING PILLOW
Anyone used it before? How good is it compare to my brestfriend?

Reira,
The seller only needs the inner measurement for the cot, so your cot is the 120x70cm type. The fitted sheet will also be made to fit 120x70cm mattress.
 
hi gals

came back from my appt with gynae this morn. Gal gal is now 1.4kg at 29 weeks. Gynae said average size. Still breeched, but i'm not concerned since i'm going for c-section. Next appt in 3 weeks time. Now it's such a hassle to go TMC. Have to go thru the temp checks and fill up forms. Stupid.

Pris
Not yet. Going in June with my friend to get.

tas
hope your gal gets well soon!
 
that nanny is sick! I hope the other parents quickly find out abt it and take their kids away from her. To think that this nanny is staying so near me somemore... Lucky i also don't trust nannies else my boy could be one of them.
