flower4,
even though the nails are soft, i don't think the baby's nails can be pulled off. not so malleable.
michelle,
the glucose test is recommended on a case to case basis only. so you'll only learn of it if your gyne orders you to go for one.
jul,
i don't think you can finish 80 lah. unless you change once every 1.5-2 hours.
ling,
the hospitals won't give you a choice lah. they'll just open a pack and help you to wear one after you've delivered. and seriously, you'll be too drowsy and tired to argue with them that you don't want to wear the pad after delivery. don't worry abt the leakage. you're in a hospital and the staff will help you to change the sheets once you've stained the bed. at first i was quite apologetic, cos i stained a couple of times, but the nurses kept reassuring me that it's alright. i think they're very used to it already.
