mamato6

Oh I did a Gestational Diabetes test last Wed. Waiting for the BT results to see if I got GD.

milkyway

Mine is very very heavy. Average weight is 1kg. 95th percentile ard 1.2kg. Mine at 1.4kg. U think heavy or not?
 


mamato6...

I had this pain which lasted for abt 10-15 mins each time. Once on Sunday n twice yest. The pain feels like contractions/ cramps.. duno how to explain. Nv felt it before. Hubby n I going for a short trip to Genting this sun(nv been there b4) with my family. Msged my gynae n he told me to see him before the trip. Saw him yest n he say can go only if im there to relax lo.. no casino, no roller coasters. heez.. N ya.. me going there just to relax n enjoy the cooler weather.. So he prescribed me with ventolin lo..
 
Ling
is it some kind of tightening feeling? maybe its contractions. but still i think a bit too early to be experiencing braxton hicks. u mean the feeling last for 10-15 mins each time? thats very long! u take it easy lor try to minimise walking in genting
 
milkyway...

I'm having a gal.. Mine's heavy too i tink.. saw gynae yest n bb weighs 1128g alr.. me should be ard 27 weeks lo.. last gynae appt(just a wk ago) bb only weigh 778g leh.. i got a shock yest man...
 
mamato6

I worried more abt the delivery lor. Coz if possible, I will not use epi. If he becomes 4kg+, I sure cannot make it, no matter how perfectly round my cervix is, & how fast & dilate & how good my genes from my mum are for childbirth lor! hiaz...
 
mamato6...

hmm.. something like tightening ba.. but not quite like it also.. gynae say its due to the sudden expansion of the uterus. he say its normal. ya lo very long hor?.. i was sitting on the bed when i had the pain n i couldnt move.. just sat there motionless till the pain left.

ya.. i wont be walking ard too much also.. Thanks!
 
JUL
the only time when i was not cut there was during my gal. gynae said he just let me tear naturally cos he anticipated it was going to be a slight tear only and indeed only 3 stitches needed. my previous gynae always cut one and as he cuts i could feel it but cos the skin was stretched till v thin its not very painful. but still very gory when i think abt it!!

hello. this is the msg from my previous post:
===================
hello mummies
i want to gather some feedback. i was told by my parent in law that the middle name of my son has to follow the family generation so that mean i only left last character for my son.

i had shortlist a few chinese name for my son. like to get a poll which one sound nicer. do give me your feedback.

1) Li Chen Xi
2) Li Chen Xing
3) Li Chen Yi
4) Li Chen Hao
5) Li Chen Yang
6) Li Chen Le

do give me which name come across to you more unique.
=================

some mummies ask me what is the hanyu pinyin.

the above shld be hanyu ping ying right? i roughly interpreat the meaning based on last character;

1) Xi- happiness /blissful
2)xing - happiness
3)yi- sincere,
4) hao- dignity, brave
5)Yang - joyous
6)le- happiness

any feedback.

I'm free on the 30 Jun or 1 Jul, but pref is 30 Jun.
I guess just go with the majority?

Jenifur
Hope everything's oki. Take care and God Bless.
 
*jess*
Hope you're feeling better now. Woah, so vibrations are actually baby hicupping.. so my baby hicup often lah... i kept feeling vibrations and make me feel uncomfortable. Last night i cannot sleep well too. I have no idea what he was doing inside.. as though my whole intestines gonna be pulled out by him! DUH!

I think every lesson i have to sit in front, i cannot see properly even when i am sitted right in front. SHORTIE people like me is like that. LOL! Me too, find her teaching a little fast, that's why i cannot remember so much! Feeling confuse like that. But luckily it's not boring, else i think i would have doze off! Hahahahaa... indeed its really WARM and STUFFY inside.. wondering if the aircon got problem! Hahaa....

*mamato6Js*
Saw that your baby is 1.1kg at 26weeks.. mine was about 821g at 26weeks .... some say mine is so small and light... but i think should be average cos my gynae never ask me to eat more eat more eat more.... -.-

*sheryn*
Hmmm... to be exact is about $313 like that i think. Don't get a stroller which is too light too. My hb was telling me the stroller is quite heavy and asked if him does he think i can carry it myself.... he stare at me... so i think should be quite heavy.. which kind you comparing then???

*michelle*
Hahaha.. haven't pregnant already forgetful.. now pregnant even worse... hahahahahaa....

*cho*
You still managed to reach on time very good.. can you imagine how late we were just trying to find a lot... -.-" I was so paiseh when i entered the class... cos i was so damn late lor.... i wonder if there is any way we can let them cool the place a little more.. its really stuffy and warm.... hard to breathe leh...
 
Hi flower4 &amp; princess,

Sorry for the late response as i'm currently switching ISP so internet connectivity is an on and off thingy for now.

Herbal Shower
-------------
To be more specific, it should be herbal shower instead of bath. Ultimately, we need to boil the herbs in a pot then pour into a pail. Let it cool before we use it. Might need to boil a few time depending on your usage.

As to why soak is mentioned is because princess asked if we can use heater water then throw in the herbs. I term it as "soak the herb" rather than "boil the herb" so presumably incorrect. Not soaking in the bath tub. Don't think anyone would want a bath tub soak during confinement.. Most would want to shower and get out asap i think :p
 
*dizi*
Woah like so chim leh. I thought very simple and fast.. just pour the herbs into the pail with water from the heater.. LOL! FAINT ah! Maybe i am more lazy so i feel it's quite troublesome.. hahaahhaaa... 1st month i try to minimise as much things to be done as possible.. cos i really have no idea how my confinement month will become.. dont even want to think of it..
 
ling> keke. maybe cos i having boy. so nothin much to resist. even so, hubby stop me from buying too much. every nite he see me surfing online spree, he will say bb cannot have so many clothes. oredi alot in de room -_-"

but it's good too la. cos he have like 19sets of clothes liaos. =x if he din control me, i think i'll go crazy shopping.

i tot all cot at baby hypermart come with matress n 1 bedding set? i bought at 349 with safety matress n 1 set of bedding. like tatlike cheaper wor.

gina> ya. de date means de end date of the spree. but sometimes dey still accept order =p

jess> ya. i'm almost done with my purchases. now juz c any good stuffs along the way, den grab n go. else can wait for bb's arrival =p

milkyway> ya. mine oso doubled his weight. was only 300+g at 20wks. 24wks was 700+g liaos.

princessxiaomei> before pregnant i still ok. now is totally cant make it. hubby olways disturb me. heng his office alot of pregnant lady oso. so he understands -_-"
 
JUL

So i was back at the clinic every hour for 3 hrs. Heng result was good.

Jul

Hmm.. then my princess is really small @24weeks, 576g :\

wish-to-be-mum: interested to know which chen you are using
happy.gif
They mean han yu pin yin as in which sheng1 diao4. Base on your meaning i know which one liao hehe

michelle: You are one shopaholic!! I hope that 19sets of clothes are suitable for various stages O_O

By the way, do you all wash the bb's clothes before hand? Be it hand me downs or new ones? I know their clothes need special detergent, bought them le.. hand wash or machine wash? :D
 
*michelle*
You know i forgetful until sometimes i cannot even remember if i did pay my bills or not.. sometimes i forget to pay end up i have to pay double.. sometimes i pay twice.. the following month i no need to pay.. LOL! And i can even forget if i have taken my meals when i sleep too much. Hahahahahaa....

*mamato6Js*
My hb's friend's wife is also pregnant, i am 7 weeks ahead of her.. then he say i never eat a lot that's why i so weak and baby so small.. kanasai.. anyhow say... his wife eats everything loh.. durian watermelon pineapple she also eat... he say i Picky.. duh! the problem is i don't even like to eat these before i am pregnant...... the only cravings i considered have is SUBWAY.. my hb says i keep wanting to eat subway until he tried all the menu already... hahahaa.. and i only ate the same tuna + tomato + letture + the same bread every time! -.-"

*sheryn*
I think i saw alot of people using this brand.. how much is it??? Must make sure basket is big enough, area for baby to lie on is long and comfortable enough.. hahahaa.... the color is limited...
 
*gina*
Maybe you also very petite leh... hahaha... baby small also not a very bad thing if u wanna opt for natural birth... one of my friends expecting a girl... 3.4kg leh till she got to induce.. cos she is about the same size as me... and i think she thinner than me!! Her parents and in laws fed her very well loh.......
 
Michelle...

This cot is made of cherrywood unlike the normal pinewood. This wood is much stronger n of cos heavier too.. Without hubby's fren, to buy the cot is $359 without the mattress n beddings..
 
sheryn...

time to buy them slowly le..

my stroller is ard 11kgs and on the high side.. so nv recommend u..

i also haven prepare my hospital bag too. Still got time ba.. heez..
 
Me ah? I wear M lo.. but heavy top. Now heavier top -.-'' When i told gynae i never take my multi-vits, he say no wonder i didn't put on weight ;p But after the scan, bb still growing so he say I am those lucky modern mum.. haha

Erm i need some opinion on the Carter diaper bags.. I am looking at CARTER BABY BAG (BIG)-DESIGN 1 and CAXINI BAMBINI BAG #1275. I asked for my friend's opinion on the design, she ask me if it is practical, as in big enough to put all the items not. We have absolutely no idea how big a diaper bag should be.

just in case you need the link to see the dimensions: http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/581296/2457781.html?1242048725
 
Ling: That stroller will not be out of the house w/o my hubby! I cannot imagine myself lugging a 11kg stroller, a baby and items big and small alone >.<think>.<
 
princessxiaomei: I have no idea. I just deduce from what he say lo hahahaa My hubby been nagging me to drink the AnMum choco milk i bought (drank twice then stop le).. seems like that will make us put on weight also. hehe
 
Gina...

I've ordered the confinement shower gel bundle le. Today last day. If in the end not using, then I'll give my granny and MIL to use lo..

As for stroller, hubby n i believe that it has to have some weight in order for it to be stable. Have heard of those light ones toppling over. Im very tall n big sized.. so the weight of the stroller seems fine for me. Plus we like those with big wheels.. heez..
 
*gina*
i have calcium pills but i never take a single one YET. I have prenatal vitamins OBIMIN too.. i ate rarely..... only 1st trimester i guai guai took the folic acid and obimin.. till left about 5 i never finish... i have difficulty in swallowing yah!! My hb staring at me... then he said i take so much milk still must take calcium pills ah.. then he say like that i can no need take... LOL! so i try to take more milk loh.. i don't mind... hahahaa....

so far you gain how many KG liao?? i think i gain about 6kg as of today....
 
Ling: I see.. hehe i only scared buy liao then elders nag nag nag say should use traditional ones.. haha

princessxiaomei: Me gain 1.3kg only i think :x Was fluctuating between 51-53kg before preggie.. last week weigh at KKH was 53.8kg... (24weeks)

oh my gynae did mention about if got take milk then no need eat the calcium tablets. hehee THEY ARE HUGE. I took one and gave up. Passed them on to my mum. Anyway, my gynae gave me this bottle of Ganilia which is a calcium soft gelatine capsule with lots of vitamins and iron and calcium and whatnots.. not cheap leh $40++ now guai guai take lo.. see next month bb weight got improve not..
 
*gina*
You made of what? How come you never even gain 2kg? LOL! I'm pretty amazed leh. LOLS! You sure you're in the correct thread? LOLS... you sure your EDD is sept???? hahahahaaa.....

I was about 45kg before pregnant, now i hit more than 50kg liao... hope i will slim down after delivery... since i am so aimei... hahahahahaa.....

Look like panadol right..... yucky! I do drink milk.. most of the time i drink it in a bowl cos i take with breakfast cereals... haahaaaa.... my gynae never mentioned anything about my weight or baby's weight or size... so i think i skip skip skip all the pills like no effect on our weight.. hopefully everything will be fine even thou i never take.. cos i really have trouble swallowing...
 
I admit i'm made of junk food but! I do eat regular normal meals with fish, meat, vegetables, soup.. I still eat leh.. Cut down on the fast food and junks after 1st trimester coz the craving died off (They were the few food options that wouldn't make me a merlion then). My mum's complaining i am not eating enough, despite me explaining that i am having meals at intervals...

Latest crave is chocolate though :x

Same take on milk :p Though not the really healthy fruity nutty cereals.. (bleah) i take with cornflakes or koko crunch..
 
princess
aiyo what a thing to say. actually nonsense lah u can be eatg lots of stuffs but not quality enuf to go to ur baby or u can be eatg lil but all "hao liao: for ur baby. and in any case, baby will still grow. also, a heavy baby does not necessarily mean a healthier baby likewise a small baby does not mean he is weak. so just take ur cue from ur body and eat what u think deems fit for urself. this preg is my worst i think. i hardly drink milk, eat irregular meals, not much fish etcc.. compared to the rest of my preg but baby still grows to be as big as his siblings. now i feel so guilty!
 
jennifur
26 june is good for me!

oh i bought many maternity tops n beautiful skirts from patch pumpkin outlet at only aud 14 each! and they r so nice! i would have bought more if i think i gg thru few more preg but this shall be my last one!
 
Outing

I am ok with all the town places, except Vivo which is a bit far for me hehe. Very lazy now coz very fat.

mamato6

Er.. take photo? Nvm lah. I think I dun wanna know how the doc cut also haha. Ignorance is bliss!

fatfat

I like Chen Yang.

sheryn

Very fat hor? Poor Babylet. Not born yet already went into TAF Club haha.

gina

The Careters Design 1 is very big. Enough to put everything u wanna carry I think, unless u wanna shift the whole hse haha. The other one is abt just nice. I am opting for Pooh bag coz I want the small small one - for short trips when I'm alone without hubby.

princess

The way u ask Gina whether she's in the right thread,. whether her EDD is Sep is soo funny
 
mamato6

Argh! Talking abt maternity skirts makes me mad. I've been looking for nice maternity skirts since Day 1! But all those that I see on sprees or in Spore shops are so auntie &amp; obiang! Nvr got my maternity denim skirt.

Looks like I need to have #2 to get a chance to buy my maternity denim skirt haha.
 
JUL
i bought my denim maternity skirt online from motherhood.com. their cutting is just nice for me at least make me look slim and length is short, almost like mini skirt!

those that i bought from pumpkin are more flare but short skirts too but best is they flatter my bottom n make me look slim haha... and sooo cheap how to resist. i agree with u those sold here v aunty i dun have heart to wear them leh and price also wont be as cheap.

yah go go go. have ur #2!
 
Jul
Did you try GAP or Old Navy maternity? They always have very nice ones lor. I got 1 flare soft denim skirt from Old Navy in my 1st trimester, damn pretty &amp; damn cheap!
 
mamato6

Yeah I was also looking for those shorter type of denim skirts. And more flare type of frilly skirts. Need A-line lah, more flattering for my hips. Ok I shall have #2 so I get to wear these skirts haha.

shelled

Got, but not what I was looking for. Coz I not that tall lah. So their knee length skirts will reach below my knees.

U know I bot Gap jeans... got "ankle" length that reaches almost to my soles. Hiaz.
 


Jul
Go alter them lah! Usually I also have to buy the shortest length of jeans (30" length) then no need alter. Always make me feel like I got short pig legs.
