itsy> I was at the Mt A class last friday too, we asked the doctor and she said that it was 3 classes on that session that's why it was a SO crowded, hot and boring. What day is your class this week?
 
hi everyone, long time didn't come in. my rashes and itching has subsided somewhat with the help of another dosage of oral pills from gynae plus cream. *touchwood* that it would not flare up again else i would really go crazy. But now, left with those rashes marks..sigh..very ugly. wonder when the marks would it go away..

I went for the Mt A class on Thurs at 630pm which touched on nutrition. Going for this saturday class at 4pm - 6pm. Anyone same slot as me?? Looks like the AMK hub class has more useful pointers especially the way on how to rub the stomach.haha

Mamato6Js - saw your perth pictures from facebook. your daughter is super cute and lovable!!
 
jul,
did you take plain water during the fasting period before the test? any idea how long does the clinic/lab needs to process the results? i am abt 70-80% sure that i don't have GD cos of a variety of reasons, but i'll go for the 2 jul test anyway since i've been ordered to do so.
 
Gd morning ladies..

Jia You to wkend ladies!
 
sandwich - i would be doing my glucose test in 2 weeks time. The nurse told me no eating 6 hrs prior to the test. I think can drink water, if not would feel very thirsty.
 
sandwich, purpleclouds

i did the glucose test last month and i was told not to eat and drink water before the test too. if we eat or drink then got to re-schedule another day to do the test.
 
Beansprout pillow,
anyone making one for their bb?

wat is the procedure for making one?

i got a bag of fresh beansprout husks but how to go about selecting/filter those husks?
 
Beansprout Pillow
I would'nt be making one but intend to buy for my bb. Wondering where can i get cheaper priced beansprout pillows as those i saw from the market is between $18 to $20+.

If i'm not wrong, you have to select the husks, wash it a couple of times, then either microwave or sun the husk to dry them before u can put them into the bag. Not sure if there'll be any additional steps.
 
Beansprout Pillow...
Im "making" my own =) actually asked my sis to collect husk for me. But she passed to my mom so my mom do the filtering and sunning.. i bought the pillow cases for her to sew in since preggie cannot touch sewing kit...

From what i know is to select/ filter the clean husk, dun need to wash, sun out as dry as many days as possible..
then buy a cloth to make ur own pillow case or from any store for beansprout husk pillow.. do weigh the amount of husk u want to fill in the pillow. =)
 
Angeline, Jess

me got a bag of husks so...
just wondering how to go about filtering those...
need to wash huh?
how to wash?

aiyo...it's blessing from ppl(given by ppl) so must use loh...
 
Mama26js
It's funny when you ask Jul DH to go take pics of how the gyn is cutting doen there upon delivery haha. So gross!

Jul04
Ignorance is bliss hehe. But you can feel the wound once you healed and will roughly know how it is done down there haha

My back aching today urgh..my left thigh also have the dull achy pain recently till i got to put medicated plaster to ease the pain. I wonder can use plaster on the back as well ?


Shelled
You mentioned you brought old navy clothes ? Is it online ? Thought they do not delivery to s'pore or something like that. Can enlighten me how this is done, thanks

Princessxiaomei
Your friend DH is too much, ask him to focus on his wife and zip up ! All pregnant lady carries differently & not all pregnancy is the same. As long as you & bb is healthy that all it matters.

But try to take the obimin as it a multivit . I believe will build up our immune system & we will fall sick lesser. As you know got all this flu bugs going on. Preggy lady best is try not to fall ill lor.
 
Jess,
ur mum use what to filter the husks?
me see those husks headache liao...

i can ask my mum to sew the case since i got a pc of cloth...

ok, no need to wash...
cos thinking if wash more difficult to dry the husks since we live in HDB now adays...
not much place to sun the husks

what is the ideal size(weight) of the pillow?
 
purpleclouds
thanks! think she also knows she is the princess always insists her way n bully her brothers

cloudme
im not making. too troublesome. outside many vendors r sellg nice ones
 
suppose not fated to join the gathering ... wahahah all dates can't make it!!! hmmm suppose i'm the most troublesome person!!! wahahahahaa

enjoy the gathering

Last nite watch too much drama today no mood to work!!! engery level too low...till now can't even produce one invoices whahahahahah going to get kill@+!!!!
 
hi cloudme
i think my mom used sieve basket to filter and smaller particles have to pick by hand if they dun separate after shaking, and a box (from the carton drinks) to sun them, so can spread them equally and flat, something like those shops sunning the herbs..

ya, if wash, more difficult to dry.. if dun dry properly, it will grow mould easily..

I would advise to prepare to make 2 pillows.. in case bb pee on it, and cannot salvage, then gotta throw away, but u got a spare one to use. Or the 2nd one can be it "smelly fave bolster" :p
 
weigh of beansprout pillow..
depends leh.. i look thru webbys and shops. it starts from 100g to 220g. I have'nt fill mine yet.. shld be abt 150g for me.. i think :p
 
Jess,
sieve basket?
which kind? got pic of sieve basket?

my cloth is big enough to make 2-5 pillows...

hmmm,
just now the uncle told me he will be giving me another bag of beansprout...lol...
 
myfavchoco - Oic, thanks for the info. Gosh i would be very thirsty!!

mama to 6Js - haha! she has that princessy look! lol! hope my girl will grow up to be as cute and lovable as urs!

At 23 weeks, my girl was 600g. Doc said abit big. I'm hoping for natural birth. Now 26 weeks, wonder how much she has grown..

Anyone who wants to watch a video clip of caserian birth - here it is.. it's kinda gross..

cloudme
u know those kind where u put the veges to wash? or it is called colander. usually plastic, comes in many sizes. can google on images.. a lot..
then can make extra pillow cases too. so the main case holds the husk, and outer cases to be changed regularly.
wah.. good for u. make a lot of 温暖牌 pillows/ bolsters for ur bb. =D
 
jess,
oh that kind ...ok...ok i know...
got a few at home...
happy.gif


haha,
my hb complain why go thru the trouble...
then i told him give me $$ to buy loh...
den he shut-up...men haiz

haha...
温暖牌 pillow/bolsters...
actually i got 1 green beans pillow(mil make for #1) but i find it too heavy liao...
 
c-section
i dun dare to watch the video... O_O

cloudme
hee.. if u find it too heavy, open the pillow to release some and make it the weight u wan then sew it back =)
anyways, u can make it a longer rectangle pillow then divide the weight equally away from the bb tummy area... 2 cents of my thots
 
princess

Hehe I dun find ur remark offensive lah. Find it very funny. But u must ask Gina whether she wanna kok ur head hahaha.

shelled

I'm sure they have. Those 1.9m tall pple lor?

purpleclouds

Harlow! Gd that ur rashes have subsided. I am also trying not to scratch my tummy too much *hiaz*

sandwich, purpleclouds

No food & no plain water AT ALL.. from midnite the previous nite, to my first BT at 9am. Then drink the orange glucose drink, start timing 2h, then no food or drink (not even plain water) until the 2nd BT 2h later. Torturous man!

hui chern

Huh? What u mean feel the wound? As in painful.. or as in u can actually touch & trace the shape of the stitches & the raw flesh??? *yucks*

Beansprout Pillow

SIL passed me some. I hope they're not too unhygienic & can be used after some sunning haha.
 
Aches & Pains

Have been suffering from lower back aches, sore shoulder muscles, etc etc aches & pains the past week or so.

Last nite I slept earlier than HB. He came in & massaged my back & shoulders for almost half an hour, I think. Had a really good sleep after that (even tho I had to wake up to pee again *grr). So touched.. Shall stop comlaining abt him for 2 days muahahaha
 
HahAHahaa!! Don't worry la princessxiaomei.. i not those petty one :p but it was funny the way you asked hehe the most i treat u as jealous lo hehehe

beansprout pillows: Don't think i will be able to make any. Think just dig into pocket and buy.. saw a website in the marketplace the other day selling a set. http://picasaweb.google.com/cuteeland/BeansproutsPillows#
The price rather average bah i guess.. not sure of market price..

outing: I am fine with the locations :D I eat them all! hehehee

jul_04: Your hubby so sweet!!! awwwwww

maternity clothes: I didn't get any lo. My mum just bought LOTS of bigger size clothes.. Went to THIS FASHION to get some clothes as they were having discounts.. Quite happy with the purchases.. Not as aunty or orbiang designs lo. Didn't grow much anyway. My HOD just passed me some of her maternity clothes though.. have yet to try them on hehehehe think i will only fit during last few months XD

There is another bb shop at Clifford centre but cant rem if it's having sale now. As for maternity/nursing, think there is only one shop at arcade 2nd floor beside one of the money changer.
