I know what you mean, and since I am so super blur, who am I to complain about other ppl missing my posts?!
But it just doesn't seem like Rach extends the same considerations to the rest of us when we miss her postings – by telling others to "go read back" – which I don't feel is not very fair. I'm just calling a spade a spade – the facts. It's not fair for her to have double standards like these, and then later to whine that ppl are not reading her posts, ignoring her, don't want her to go gathering, go toilet and cry, blah blah blah. I find that to be emotional blackmail lor.

Ask your colleagues to get pregnant also lor! Then they can also claim 4 months' maternity leave, along with morning sickness, loss of appetite, weight gain, backache, hip pain, insomnia, and a whole horde of other wonderful pregnancy symptoms!

Ling,
oh ya ha, the needle...argh...
Dr Jocelyn got say, labour pain and i have back problem and she hope tat i wont have to go thru epidural but if really cant take it, then got to do it..
My thinking is, will non epidural delivery will cause more demage to our back as we are bearing the pain?
or Request epidural too late is already no use which u have been going thru all the pain lioa.
u noe la, its so hard to predict right now.. i dun think we still have sensible mind to make our own decission during tat time come u noe.

their kids already grown up la.. they din really straight in the face telling u tat they jealous la, but i noe they will say somting to my boss to change opinion of his..
for example, like hospitalization leave & etc... they will say things like tis to my boss, the hospitalization leave is not actually hospitalize lor and HRM can reject one mah & etc. and will say to my boss tat , aiya its not necessary to go on maternity leave early one mah.. or aiya.. how come her doctor suggest her tis suggest her tat, how come her doc soo good give tis leave tat leave...
poisioning my boss' mind further...
Example, Gynea already provide me with hospitalisation leave and my boss already approved.. Will HR still able to superceded?

pain is pain ma.. i dun see much connection to our back... like the others who have mentioned earlier.. pain is all in the mind! dun concentrate so much on how pain its gonna be.. no one ever said that labour would be easy.. but it depends on how one thinks too.. focus more on bb's arrival n not the pain lo.. thats what i intend to do..

Eeeyer, this kind of ppl so hateful. I think cos last time when they had their babies, they never get such good maternity benefits, so now buey song with you. I don't think there's anything you can do except to pray hard that your boss don't get influenced by what they say lor.

Then you better take the chance to rest well during these 2 days' MC! But you really sound like you're in bad shape. Puking, gastric, tiredness... Jiayou ok? Almost D-day liao!!

I have PM you to let you know about the part time help.
Just one day and the thread moves so fast...quite impossible to read everything. I see something I want to comment on, then after some posts, I forgot.
Not having green stool means either not taking the iron pills or the iron pills got absorbed completely. That's what the hospital nutritionist told me.
Shelled
If the gatherting location is convenient, I can drop by and at the same time collect everything from you. I also prefer to meet earlier the better coz I am so big now that pple think I am going to give birth soon.
Wsn't it flower who mentioned some stupid colleague who are jealous about the pregnancy? You tell them...."if you want 4 mths maternity, then get pregnant lar...If you want hospitalisation, then let a car hit you or jump from third floor of the block lor......." very bad but they are crazy...what's there to be jealous about?

Re: Nursing Bra Trying on
I am interested in the nursing bra try on..
let me know the details if rest are interested as well, if not, just stick to the original plan..

agree with bbq98... some male bosses are more caring, esp those who are fathers already.

gerald,
you're not the only one wif the job hazard i guess. my hb too
this wk he'd be away again...thankfully away for 4 days only. but he told me end this mth probably got to travel again. i told him, this mth still ok, but hopefully not end next mth. else its too damn close to my due date and i'd be very scared if i pop when i'm all alone at home in the middle of the night. after hearing that, he quickly write down the taxi no. big big on my kitchen wallboard..juz in case!
you're not the only one wif the job hazard i guess. my hb too

Given your situation, you probably wouldn't pop at 40wks but earlier instead! Location would definitely be central Orchard area for the convenience of all mommies. But worse come to worse, we revert back to our initial plan, ok?
I think most mommies will want to meet earlier, cos no one knows who will pop early next!! Already a lot of evidence from other MTB threads that moms pop before 40wks, so I also want to faster hand out everything in case I pop early. This boy is already edging his way downwards and making me quite uncomfortable!

No chance to take leave and be around during your wife's EDD? From what I know, your company still has this "leave scheme" to cope with the economic situation right? Cannot utilise it fruitfully?

Wat a caring husband! Yeah. I know I'm not the only one but I wished we had a system to allow for greater family time. That said, I suppose I did choose the job yar?
I've got fantastic support from friends and family alike so I'm sure my wife will be well looked after. Thank goodness! But I'll def be more kancheong on my travels if I hear that she's popped nonetheless...
Outing
Unless it's at the airport for a quick meal on the 24th, I'll elect for the 31st. But think it's more for the mommies convenience. I'll pass the word on to my wife.

heehee coz need diapers $$ no matter what also must tahan till the end....
bbq98 - there are many others ways to decorate the cot...
hmm i use the cheapo way although i still have the musical toy....
i din let my #1 sleep long in the cot that probably why she don't sleep in the cot... i most of the time let her sleep in the living room where more airy and had those colorful "running" flower at the windows.. also i printed so black and white some red color those patterns and stick arouond the cot area for her to see..
till she almost 9 mths i think when she able to sit up then she enjoy the musical toys while i can go bath!!
RE:MALE BOSSES

So i guess depends on "heng" "suai"

sadly... though I've got 12 days to clear, needs to be informed early and cannot affect the roster and training.
I could block a week before EDD but if he decides he wants to take a early peek, I'll be wasting my leave nonetheless so we're electing the 'let's hope for the best' kinda strategy?
Leave scheme for the Economic situation? Hmmm... not really for me la. Me dun affect their bottomline that much at this time.

Gina - you can buy the eternity bra from OG Orchard. They have the Eternity brand there.
I just bought Sorella non-wired bra from Robinsons. Got padding but not so thick n it's really comfy. 1 cost $22.90 and its going for Buy 2 Get 1 Free!
Gerald - my hubby is same line as you. He blocked his leave 2 weeks before my EDD. But then again, it's really hard to predict when is baby coming out. He says that if really pop out before his blocked leave, he'll call the rosterer and inform them that his wife is giving birth. No choice. Hope they understand...in the meantime, hope for more turnarounds!!

Have taken note of your gathering date preference and added it to poll.
I guess your current plan has got to be the best way to go, since no one really knows when Marc will decide to pop out. At least your wife is very considerate about the situation and I'm sure she'll do just great even if you don't manage to be by her side as she labours.
<font color="ff6000">Gina</font>
Fitted is the one with elastic. So won't move around should bb be the active kind and kick/roll around a lot. Hope this helps!
