rae_cheong,
You gynac suggested c-sec for this time round? Cos I was thinking wanting to try for natural delivery anot since the last time c-sec was 6yrs back. I heard if opt for c-sec, might have to choose the c-sec date around 38 weeks, not sure true anot. But will ask my gynac on my next visit.
I not sure about confinement food as I have never engage anyone before. But this time round I engaging CL for my confinement recommended by my aunt.

myfavchoco,
I drink 1 cup of coffee daily. Cannot go without it.

shelled,
me too haven been sleeping well lately. The tummy is block my way and my waist down to my thigh is aching like hell and also my tummy sometimes get so tight until like it's going to explode anytime..

Rach,
Any idea your friend choose which hospital and how many bedded?
 
<font face="Comic Sans Ms"><font color="0000ff">Hui Chern

Found my storage advice given by TMC NICU, here goes:-

Breastmilk can be kept at:
At room temperature - not warmer than 25 degrees Celsius - for up to 2 hours
Refrigerates at 4 degree Celsius - 48hrs
In a fridge freezer with a separate door for each - 3 mths
Deep freezer at -20 degree Celsius - 1 yr

Always place expressed breast milk into the back of the fridge after expressing

myfavchoco
Me too, one cup every morning to wake me up ahaha

Shelled
Thanks. How old was J before you gave him the EBM ?

Sleeplessness - Aiyoh, me for the past few nights keep waking up and could not go back to sleep. Toss &amp; turn &amp; bb thought it's morning keep moving non-stop :p. But thank God still fresh when i go to work. Maybe job not so busy liao haha. Me shaking legs till i go on leave starting 11th Aug shiok haha
 
<font color="ff6000">myfavchoco</font>
I'm not a regular coffee drinker leh. I prefer Teh ice, milo ice or redbull!


<font color="ff6000">rach</font>
Oh yay! Reach SG le!!


<font color="ff6000">Michelle</font>
Oooh then of course that kind more ex lah. I think the baby video monitor is a lot simpler, therefore only a few hundred instead of a few thousand.


<font color="ff6000">Moojenn</font>
I think your tightness is caused by BH? Mine is just soreness. Not so much tight. Feels like someone punched and jumped on my lower belly when I was sleeping!!


<font color="ff6000">flower4</font>
I want the chocolate donuts! With chocolate inside the donut, and chocolate on top of the donut! Wash down with 1 big glass of milk (don't want low fat de hor). Wah! Super yummy!
 
<font color="ff6000">hui chern</font>
Early infancy lor. Cos I was recovering from C-sec mah, so very tired and in pain. Sometimes pain until cannot get out of bed. Then my hubs will heat up EBM and give J lor. But never more than once every 24hrs, cos I also cannot skip too many feedings otherwise will engorge and very pain.
 
shelled &amp; milkyway

<blockquote>I've been feeling the suan feeling between my tummy and thighs area too. I think it's due to the weight of my tummy causing an additional strain on the muscles there. So, I've been trying to walk around more to build up the muscle there. In fact, my calves are also starting to ache. Prob cos my legs are not used to supporting this amount of weight. Not to worry, all these will go away in max 2 months.
happy.gif
Then we'll have a new set of problems! Heh.</blockquote>

<font color="0077aa">angeline</font>
oh then when can u confirm if you going down to Lil Dreamers &amp; MIM? and i need to order the stuff from Lil Dreamers and pay all by tomr (deadline). Need to specify who is collecting directly frm Lil Dreamers counter. And I need to collect payment from you all too before i can order tomr.

I PM u my email add/ mobile so u can contact me directly?

Or you decide if u still want to chip in the total order since u want to drop by the shop urself, and can have less hassle of transferring the amt to me... haha... sorry of my very messy thots..


<font color="0077aa">jenifur</font>
i saw ur fridge to go BP.. dunno if i need to have it.... quite a gd discount... =)
 
<font face="Comic Sans Ms"><font color="0000ff">Jess

I've all along wanted to get the Fridge-To-Go but find it abit ex (Cheapo Mummy) so thought why not just write to them &amp; ask for discount.

I find it's very useful for working mummy who are beastfeeding lor. I really had to rush home daily after work just to store EBM. Sometimes wana go dating w DH, also mus go home to drop off e EBM 1st den can go out. This bag will end my agony!!! </font></font>
 
*new MTB*

<font color="ff6000">princessxiaomei</font>

sad.gif
 
about confinement food hor...

my mum willnot come over my house to stay lioa...

so she will cook at her home &amp; my hubby will bring the food to me...

then my mum worry will the quality of confinement food drop and i wunt get enough of nutri?

is there a concern? jus like Shelled, you do catering rite? how many times of deliver they will send you per day ah?
 
<font color="ff6000">flower4</font>
I think i am more thirsty than hungry... I keep drinking water nonstop!!


<font color="ff6000">princessxiaomei</font>
Ok!! I have noted. Do you want to PM me your address also? Cos never gimme address how i mail wor?! When I receive the donuts and weigh them, I'll send out mass email to inform on postage costs. Then u hv to trf postage amt to me, ok?
happy.gif
 
-.-" LOLS

*shelled*
okie sure. No problem! :)
My appetite is dropping too. I often feel much more thirsty than hungry. And in the noon time, my tummy always suan suan feeling... why got this suan suan feeling?
 
<font color="ff6000">flower4</font>
Catering comes twice a day lor – lunch &amp; dinner. Both times NewBaby will also send 1 large tumbler (about 1 litre) of red date tea. Along with the dishes and rice. The food always arrive hot and fresh, cos they put in actual Tupperware and not those cheapo plastic containers. Then if wanna heat up, just pop into microwave can liao.
 
I got suan &amp; burning sore pain under the tummy &amp; on the belly there... so painful. lucky its go away now.....

all pains &amp; sore always occur during nite &amp; sleep hor

i try to walk more, but my backache is kiling me how manz...

<font color="ff6000">princessxiaomei</font>
I haven't rcv your PM yet.
sad.gif

Got facebook! Later when I receive your PM i use that email address to search for you on FB? You use the same email address right?


<font color="ff6000">flower4</font>
My fingers also like that! Swollen fingers leh! I dip my hands in iced water to ease the swelling.

I think you can just warm up the food later lah, so don't really need to get thermos containers lor. See how you prefer your food to arrive.


<font color="ff6000">Re: Water retention</font>

<font size="+1">You all MUST drink more water to <u>AVOID</u> water retention!!</font>

How it works is that your body will "keep" water if you don't drink enough, therefore leading to water retention. if you drink more more water, then your body will understand that you are not undergoing famine/drought, and therefore won't retain water.

I whack at least 2-3 litres of PLAIN WATER everyday, and never kenna water retention in either of my pregnancies.
happy.gif


Swelling and water retention is TOTALLY DIFFERENT hor. Swelling is usually caused by other things like poor blood circulation, muscle soreness, etc.

<font color="0000ff">How to differentiate water retention and swelling: </font>
- press on the swollen area with your fingertip
- if your flesh sinks down and creates an indentation, then you have water retention
- if your flesh bounces back up or remains firm/swollen, then it is just PLAIN SWELLING and not water retention at all!

OK, everyone go press your legs now. Then go ask your gynae during next visit if drinking more water will give you water retention or not.
lol.gif
 
*rach*
I guess its typo error loh.. haha.. so i didn't correct u either. as long as u know it's me can liao lor. Hahaha.

*shelled*
Yup. It's the same email address. You must say which is you leh. I never see you before, then don't know which is you... my facebook has some people i also dont know is which nick. Recently then know girlygirly is which when she added me months ago! LOL!

I drink so much water every day until i keep peeing in the night. Sometimes bathe finish pee finish, i gobble 300ml of water again. I felt like a water tank... can dont eat but cannot dont drink water..

Few days back, i realised my baby never move much.. i think it's because of my mood recently and made me so worried.... 15-20mins we kept on tapping and calling him..but he didn't even want to until my hb sugguested to go hospital. So scary leh. Now i try to keep myself happier...
 
Moojen: My gynae didn't suggest natural delivery to me at all. #1 was breeched, so I had to opt for c-sect at wk 38. So, it seemed that #2... c-sect just popped into my mind as we r worried that I may end up Emer c-sect. My #2....we planned 09/09/09... at wk 38 too.
