Pris: congrats on your smooth delivery. a brave mommmy u r ... u used so little epidural..u have high pain tolerance.

mich: i scared my bb will be too big for me to push. gynae said the bb is not quite engaged yet. this is so worrying..

piggytoh: i read thru the archives, my gynae also said bb got chubby cheeks and big tummy.
duuno wat is bb eating inside...gynae said bb can swallow now, maybe bb is swallowing lots of water...heehee.
u muz be counting down to ur week 38 for delivery....excited leh.
 
Yen,
hahah ya lor dunno what they eat inside feed themselve until so round haha keke.. but i worried my cervix not ripe for induce by then wor... so now is more worryin than excited :p
 
piggy: Cervix ripe means cervix open , is it?
my gynae did a VE (it's kinda uncomfortable, duuno wat she is trying to reach inside ..haha) and said my cervix not open..
She said induction will help the cervix to open.
When u go for your induced labour, pls let us know whether painful or not.
I asked my gynae wat exercises we can do to help cervix open? e.g. squatting or watsoever?
She said..no use, leave it to nature.
 
Yen,
ya i tink cervix ripe is referrin to cervix open bah i also not v sure.. but my gynae say if cervix not ripe there r chances induce will fail wor... maybe will double check with him in my nex checkup... ya i will let u gals know pain anot but if Cherrios induce be4 me maybe she can advice keke... but my sis she induce for all her 3 baby she say painless wor.. my kolig say the same thing hope it true

piggytoh, ya lor, seriously! hehehe..

...and im still thinking to have a durian feast before delivery!...

seriously, my prev experience during confinement, i get a bit food deprived towards the 2nd/3rd week. i got quite depressed by eating the same food again and again...

so, a piece of advice, go eat and savour whatever you like for now first! hhehee

(... and i haven't get my hands on KOI yet!)
 
piggytoh:issit......think some trashold of pain is higher :p mine is super low.....see needles i get wobbly legs liao

oh ya, i had my check up on last friday, it is about 36w, my bb girl is 2.85KG, my gynae also did the VE for me, after that she put her fingers in and said, open for about 2 cm already.

She said i can give birth on 4th Aug.
 
Morning ladies

I am so happy today, call up Nan Hua to find out whether my boy got a place there and was told yes. So have to send dh to go down to register him later. Now, don't need to go over to ACS(Primary) to register my boy since the number registered are greater than the number of vacancies they have.

Another good news, baby Ray is finally into 2-2.5hours of bfd schedule and he is now waking up twice a night which meant I have more time to sleep at night.

We just discovered a scary thing that is the Sydney Chinese family that was murdered is staying pretty near where we are staying in Sydney. Frightening as the estate we are staying are usually very peaceful and it is a middle-class estate.
 
pris,
congrats! your boy entering Nan Hua
happy.gif
My boy too but 2 years time lah hahaa....so he can be my boy's senior!!
 
cloudme, your #1 was a gal isit? so smaller?

weishy : wat?! water can get into lungs ar? Oh my..so scary.

chintz: i agree...wan to eat wat, better eat now.I just had 'mao-shan-wang' ice cream with waffle at Udders at west mall. yummy.
Btw, now shop n save is selling 2 coconuts at $1.95.
 
Chintz,

I just had durian feast yday !!!
My husband bought 4 boxes and I ate abt 5-8 seeds.
Perhaps this might be the last time I eat durians till after my confinement...hahahahaha...
 
Reira, yes..done at week 36+ checkup already and I am cleared.
If you are bothered about it then write email to Ah Wong and ask her.

Cherrios, I didn't sleep well last nite too. Keep waiting up as got heartburn and the tummy is so hard plus down there very pain.
Then back, backside and thighs start to ache too.

Yen, my gynae say climbing stairs, walking and squatting exercise helps to open up cervix. Not sure how true though.

Chintz, I went to try KOI last weekend already. Hahaha..really alot of pearls leh.

Shirley, open 2cm already still must wait till 4th Aug ah?
 
cherrios,
wow you so hot ar, must on air con + fan? Take care dun catch a cold especially now with H1N1.

Piggy,
me very scare of pain too so when I gave birth to my #1 I wanted the epi b4 my the gynae burst my waterbag but she just burst without pre informing me #%&(%@$#@
 
irene, i really have no idea, anyway will go for my weekly check up by end of this week, will see the situation again.
 
Hi mummies... im new to this forum.. hope to make friends with other muumies also..
You are so lucky hubby will buy durian.. my hubby dun like durian smell.. only gota wait for my parents to buy haha..

Btw is heart burn normal? is it due to the iron pills or what? cos i keep having this and is very uncomfortable & painful..
 
Smurfy, its nice!!!

Piggytoh, break waterbag not so pain. Its the drip that speeds up the dilation that is super painful!
 
smurfy,
I like 1st and 7th pix very nice and romantic!
happy.gif


piggy,
when water flow out not pain, but when her hand go inside to burst very not comfortable and pain.
 
Thanks Mashy! Hope your gal's jaundice will disappear soon!

Hi Pris, you'll be staying in sin for good? thought you going back or you'll transfer Kai back when you go back to sydney?
 
Smurfy,
hee it nice i like the 1 tt they tie a ribbon to ur tummy keke.. which studio u took it from???

Irene/Celine,
oh seems like diff pp got diff exp. wor... i tink it depend on the skill of the gynae also keke... i got 1 friend she had induce for both her baby n #1 with Epi #2 w/o epi she told me the pain is ok wor.. weird..
 
morning!

had a bad night again.. kept awake from 2-4plus am with irregular contractions.. dunno what this bb trying to do leh
sad.gif


pris, ur birth story is so peaceful! i am also v sure i want epidural for this birth.. its probably the only thing that allows me to retain some dignity throughout the whole process!

siewlai, i was pumping 2-3 hrly in the day and 3-4 hrly at night with avent pump in the 1st mth. cos bb was still young, i sterilised after each use. but i'm not sure if thats necessary, cos when i switched to ameda, the instruction manual just said to wash and rinse b4 each use. no mention of requiring sterilising.

reira, if u gonna pump, maybe u can latch bb both sides abt 10-15min each instead of what the nurses advocate- ie 20min on 1 breast. that way bb will be more likely to get more colostrum? i also thot of pumping even in hosp to stimulate breasts better, but the thought of precious colostrum going down the drain instead of into my bb putting me off leh..

re gp b strep, from my last preg, i remember the guidelines was to treat while in labour. no need/point for oral antibiotics before that as it can recur.. but maybe got more updated guidelines since then? check with ur gyne if u worried lor.

btw, who is using freestyle? i was looking thru the manual, and it doesnt mention that we need to sterilise before EACH use. just need to sterilise before FIRST use. can someone else read the manual and confirm if that's correct??

bathing - someone mentioned using lemongrass instead of herbs? how to do that? must boil the lemongrass with anything or just dump a stalk into the bath water will do?
 
Goodmorning ladies!

cherrios
ouch! you are having contractions, cramp, bloatness, nausea? i hope i won't have nausea leh. hate to vomit. =(

piggytoh
till now i dont understand what is cervix ripe leh. but gynae will know one hor? cant wait to see my gynae next mon!!!

weishy
baby swollow water inside means will have hiccups right? aiyo now i worries since last week he have been having 2-3 hiccups a day. donno if he got get rid of those water out or not. hmm...

Pris
Thats good news! Were you or your hubby a student of Nan Hua previously?

yen
my hubby's colleague's baby also got water in the lung! same gynae as me too. then his baby had to stay in ICU for awhile i think.

haha i went to buy the 2 coconuts at $1.95 too! ytd ate one le... wondering when should i eat the other.

smurfy
very nice bloom shots!! XD i love the one with gift ribbon! so cute!

Memories+Bond
Heartburn is normal. Try to avoid spicy,sour,fried food.
 
Celine, oh..you don't have the drip ah?I thought induce will have.

Piggytoh, I heard inserting the pill not painful but its not always successful.
 


piggy,
maybe your fren went thru #1 and for #2 pain tolerance increase?

I think our Irene want to try to go w/o epi for #2 too right?

Irene,
pls let me know if you manage to get the free upgrade from 4 bedder to 2 bedder? I want to know the chance... Anyway do you know how many 4 bedder TMC have?
