Keke I'm very lucky to get lots of hands me down clothing and such, so actually didn't spend a lot. I just bought 3 pairs of new mittens and booties to bring to hospital. Each pair $2.
 
<font face="segoe print"><font color="#FF6666">michelle...</font>

I didnt suspect it too till i read the symptoms.. till today, haven stop lo. But I still feel it may be some food poisoning.. but duno what had caused this. and tho' I still got my doubts abt goin into labour so soon, but its not impossible ma..

Hope hb can be home in time to take me to see my gynae tonight. </font>

Huh? I never mention let J stay over hosp arh. How can let small kids overnight in hosp?!


Ning >>
Half c-sec?? Do you mean C-sec with epidural? The kind where the mommy is awake? Yup, mine is done with epi, and I'm wearing the abdonimal binder now. I still kept it from the time I c-sec #1 out. *LOL*


itsy >>
Will be discharging later today @ 6pm!! I complained to my gynae when she visited to check on me at 9am just now. Aircon too dry, make me cough even more! Then make my stitches hurt. I can drink more water to counter the throat dryness, but then I'd need to go pee more often, which isn't exactly convenient or comfortable either.

Turn off aircon then no ventilation, cos windows can't be opened. Should be sleeping/resting more, but almost every hour I will be disturbed by someone. Take temp, take blood pressure, BF Keegan, "Have you peed yet? How much pee?", time for meal, time for tea, check your wound... OMFG. How to rest?!?
 
huishan> ur bb not very big. if i din remember wrongly, mine is 2.2kg at wk33+6days. doc nv ask me watch my food intake. in fact told me bb is getting all de nutrients he needs which is good.

ling> same leh. mine same as urs. super watery. oh no. ur EDD 3days before me. let me know wat ur gynae says tonite.

shelled> ops =x u nv say let J stay with u ah? keke. cannot let kid stay over in hospital with u one?
 
<font color="0077aa">shelled</font>
allio! how r u? wah.. in premier single bedded room leh... gd to know u r going home this evening for more rest :p

did u get to see Jul or Jul visit u?


loose/ watery stools
i have it this morning too.. but only 1 time to loo.. maybe bb pressing onto the bowels and the stools become soft? :p
 
hey shelled, rest well. heehee is my turn to disturb u with questions.

anw wanna ask you,for 1 bed-room,

1)did u inform tt TMC tt ur hubby staying overnight?

2)we really can request bb to stay overnight with us?

3)in order to stay at ward level 5, we need to top-up $58 per night rite?
 
hey hey i have constipation for a few days.

den i drank prune juice over the weekends.

today my stool is loose. which i like. but i do feel my bb kicking is very vigorous, might really cause the bowel movements too.
 
Michelle
I have about 4 pairs of mittens &amp; booties for each baby. Hee. But after seeing itsy got so many, I’m starting to feel maybe I need more?
If so then after babies come out, I will ask hubby to go buy more from NTUC.

Shelled
Wah your premier room sounds so shiok! Rest well ok when you get discharged today and wish you have a speedy recovery. Why don’t you try popping your painkillers this time round?
You must be missing J too. J is really so cute and that time when I met him, can really see he’s a good boy! I’m sure he will treat Keegan very well &amp; sayang his didi and talk to him a lot.

Ling, Milkyway
So sad, our last few weeks of pregnancy, then a lot of us develop sensitive stomachs like that. Want to enjoy what we eat also end up having loose stools, etc and make us worry. I really wanted to indulge in food le, cos during confinement I want to focus on losing weight. But now…haiz…every meal I eat, I pray hard pleaseeee don’t let me have gastric &amp; diarrhea again.
 
Ya, talking about coconut, can anyone tell me where to buy the local coconut to drink?

Cos I seem to only see Thai young coconuts everywhere but not the local coconuts which you ladies recommend to drink in the last mth before giving birth.

Thanks in advance!
 
whitey

I usually buy the coconut from a fruit stall opposite Tiong Bahru Plaza (in front of multi-story carpark) at $1 each. Every weekend definitely have, weekdays will have also, but dunno izit daily.

I do see them at NTUC at times. Alternatively, hawker center drinks stall will sell. But they are more expensive.
 
<font face="segoe print"><font color="#FF6666">Whitey...</font>

So sian lo.. Kena scolded by hb just now when i told him i wil reheat the macaroni from last night.. Cos I really no energy to go get food myself. So die die went down to get the hot bee hoon soup he asked me to to warm my stomach. Dragged myself all the way down but the stall not opened today.. SUAY lo!.. end up just buy wan tan noodles.. On my way home.. wanted to LS again.. true enough, I just did...haiz...</font>
 
<font face="segoe print"><font color="#FF6666">bbq98...</font>

No leh.. recently hb not home.. no one to pry open coconut for me.. i didnt buy also.. the last time I drank was abt a week ago?</font>
 
Michelle
I bought from bb fair at Expo some time back. It's very plain type. I'm sure NTUC have cheap ones.

Huishan
My bb weigh 2.35kg at 34week. Gynae says bb might be 3.3kg when I deliver.

Whitey
Haha I'm sure dun need so many pairs, just that friends gives so I wash them and use lor.

Shelled
Maybe cos you r staying in "5-star" room that's why the nurses are paying so much attention to you. Nvm, you'll be home soon.


Regret drinking a glass of orange juice this morning, now suffering from heartburn.. xin ku.
 
coconut:
i've been buying young coconut from NTUC or Cold Storage... those with top slightly open. is it the correct one that we shd drink?
 
Wifey
Thanks ya for the info! =)

Ling
Ya I’m sure after all that poo-ing you really had no energy to go and buy food for yourself. And so sad the stall was closed. Sigh. Anyway I think wantan noodles sounds good too.
Wah you LS again… try to eat and drink more to replenish your lost fluids ok!

Itsy
You also got heartburn. All of us so xin ku.

This is the last lap, we must hang in there. Soon, soon.
But do our bodyaches – pelvic pains, swelling caused by water retention etc – disappear by about 1 or 2 days after delivery?
 
Waiwai

I thought we're supposed to take the young green coconuts. Those from NTUC don't have the outer shell leh... hard to tell whether they are young and green...
 
Whitey
Not only must be careful of what I eat cos I get heartburn easily, now also getting pelvic pain.. sigh..

Last night the pain was so bad when I got off bed to go toilet, my legs nearly gave way. Actually not really pain but also a bit numb. Are you all getting the same thing? I told my hubby, he yaya (cos he attended lesson with me ma) told me "Oh cos your pelvic bones are loosening. No prob, it's normal" Damn it lah, he made it sound like so easy to just bear with it. !@$#%
 
Whitey

You can get the coconuts from markets, if not those drink stalls from hawker ctrs.

I get BH every morning without fail and now I get even during the middle of the night. Then these few days, I feel pain on the right side of my tummy. It's the area (palm size) just below the ribs. BH is just the tummy getting very tight but this is pain. I don't suppose real contraction is just topical right? Anyone knows?
 
whitey> ya lo. if really not enugh, den juz hubby go get from ntuc. pretty convenient too.

loose stools> nv eat anything liang leh. haven drink coconut for a long long time too.

ling> haha. i tot i was getting better, until i ate lor mee for lunch. while eatin halfway i feel like going toilet liaos. -_-" den back in office immediately go toilet LS -_-"

itsy> keke. cos i was looking at cute cute ones. maybe juz get a few plain ones lo =p

haha. heng my hubby not so bad. he juz told me is suppose to be like tat. than he massage it for me to make me feel better =p n den he pretend scold bb, say is all bb's fault for making mummy so xinku -_-"

waiwai> i oso drink those. only buy those with tops opened too. cos i no need open myself. hm no chopper =x
 
Itsy
Ya pelvic pain is a real pain. I've been having it for the past few months until now used to it already
sad.gif

Just walk slowly and don't force yourself to walk fast in order to avoid injury to the loosening pelvic bones.

Ya our hubbies only know how to say say, mine also sometimes I complain he says this is part of pregnancy, it will be over soon ok. But I still feel frustrated cos he don't feel what I feel, it's really tough you know. Men will never get it!

bbq
Thanks, will continue to look for the right coconut to drink!
These 2 nights I also experience that palm size, topical pain on the lower right side of my tummy. Kinda like stitches you get when you run right?
 
Whitey

Yes yes...I think it's the position of the baby's limbs but am not sure. Sometimes the pain can be inbearable till want to vomit.
 
Whitey
Ya lor, we know all these are part of pregnancy and just got to bear with it but the hubbies can at least show a bit more concern right.

Coconut!
You guys are always mentioning food and drinks! Making me gian. Hhaa ask my hubby to buy coconut tonight.
 
bbq

Ya I also wonder what causes this pain. I only get it on right side lower abdomen you know. Especially can feel this pain when I try to sleep on my right side.

Last night I felt like my dinner went up to my throat as I was tossing for >1 hr in bed trying to sleep. The sensation is like very hot at the throat area. But for me, I don't think it's caused by this right-side-pain.
 
itsy
Haha we mention coconut is only cos of the 'practical' purpose to drink it in last month. Didn't know it made you gian! =P
so cute.

Regarding Salon Matters,

Thank you for the love Mommies...

I have a feeling the salon MAY go haywire without me here because that AUNTIE staff would STEP STEP STEP all over my HB and Head Stylist. In my experiences, with another female superior around, this Auntie staff will behave a little... Though now she already keeps MIA-ing to go out talk to the people at the other stalls, Or go out to buy 4D for a LONG time. And when male customers come in for a haircut, If I didn't instruct her to cut, she'll just act like she didn't see him! She whistles to the music in the salon when she tends to customers which is a turn off!!! Not following our procedures is what I COMPLETELY cannot tolerate. Everywhere you go, there are different styles and procedures one has to follow. But I guess her BRAIN ISN'T AS ABSORBENT.

My HB knows how tired I am... I whine every morning when I have to get out of bed and get ready to go to the salon, Which is VERY not me. I am trying my best not to walk like a penguin/duck but my pelvis really hurts when it hits mid-day, So no choice but to waddle. I have been having occasional nerve shocks at the back of my head due to my cervical spondylosis condition, probably due to overworking my right side. I do try to sit down as much as I can. ( Though I hate people mistaking me as a receptionist )

Juts this morning on the way to work, I felt really wierd... I had the combination on Gastric, Slight cramps and Tummyache feeling... Not very strong.. Just a mild feeling. Anyone encountered this?
 
Hello everyone...
I am new here..
I am in my 38th week now. And having a struggle to come up with a decision to either c-sec or try natural. My gynae kept saying that my bb is big and that im too small to do natural.. Is anyone having such delima now??? i really need some advice.. thanks
 
Sherry

I think it's best to follow your doc's advice cos he/she will be the one delivering your baby. If he/she is more familiar with a c-sec for a big baby, then no choice lor.
 
sherry> think it's better to heed ur gynae's advise to go for c-sect rather than to opt for emer c-sect later on?

or maybe u can post how big ur bb is n how small u r, and we can better comment.
 
bb monitor> anyone bought any baby monitor device? hubby insist he wanna buy one even though bb will be sleeping with us after CL leave think he wanna monitor bb during de period CL is ard.

Any good one to recommend n where i can get cheaper? thanx

girly> omg. u r really a minnie. so small even when pregnant at 36wks. u must b like 40kg before pregnant. or u nv gain any weight a all during pregnancy? no good leh. bb is eating all ur nutrients to grow. n if u got no nutrients for bb, how is bb gonna grow???
 
Girlygirly...u really really very small girl leh....49.8kg and 36 weeks liao!!! eat more okie...baby also have to eat more...ur gynae nv say anything huh? But actually hor, as long as both u and bb strong and healthy..i guess it is okie bah
happy.gif
 
*bbq* *michelle* *ning*

thank all for the concern...

my pre-pregnancy wt was approx 43/44kg...

bcoz of my GD, im on low carb, low fat diet...therefore nothing sweet, nothing made of flour and nothing deep fried or oily for me...

hub asked gynae if i cld stop the diet coz since im nt gaining wt at all and bb is gaining so lil, furthermore edd is drawing near...
gynae replied tat i shld continue to 'diet' and he doesn't want bb to grow too big and too fast oso...

erhmm...i know it's for my own good bt sometimes cldn't help bt feel sorry for myself and bb...

i'll end up wif a 'tiny' full term babylet...
 
<font face="segoe print"><font color="#FF6666">whitey...</font>

hurhur.. the wantan noodles didnt taste that good.. just ate for the sake fillin my stomach.. heez..


Just an update from my gynae visit just now. My gal is now aprox 2740g at 35 weeks plus.. Gynae say bb's normal. Head still down(Yippy!) Also did my Strep B test, so will have to wait for the results.

Regarding my LS, he just gave me some medication and told me to stop all forms of milk intake. Been taking cereal for breakfast recently and I had a glass of milk last night. But weird is I've nv had this prob b4 leh so nv tot its cos of milk.. anyway.. no milk from now lo.

Am glad its not labour or anything lidat.. heez.. </font>
 
girly> if tat's de diet ur gynae advise, den i think u juz got to heed his advice. nvm tat bb is small as long as bb is healthy. can drink milk? if can den drink more lo =p

ling> keke. i oso went to visit a gp for diarrhoea. he oso ask me not to take any milk for now. but i know all along diarrhoea cannot take milk. but i m very tempted to eat de ben n jerry's ice cream. juz now while i keep de ice cream in de freezer, i told bb tat is his 35th wk old replacement of cake, den he give me a kick =p
 
<font color="ff0099"><font size="+1">Hi everyone!! I'm home!!!</font></font>
biggrin.gif


Wah. So nice to be home lah. Stupid hospital bed make my back ache and backside pain. Then the aircon make the air so dry that I keep coughing. Reach home the time pass so much faster. Sterilised all the pigeon storage bottles, my breastpump parts, etc etc. Blink blink then so fast already 9.30 liao. Time really crawls in the hosp lor.
 
Girly
to me no prob at all leh. the reason why u not puttg on weight is cos u on low carb low sugar diet mah. i think ur gynae more concern abt controlling ur GD than to let u stop ur diet, risking ur GD out of control even though u may end up with a bigger baby. so far ur baby also below 3kg right and they end up healthy right? this baby might be slightly lighter but as long as she is full term should be ok. my twin #2 was born 2.5kg also and now so huge in size. but i agree with others that u r really petite hehe... i think i havent seen my weight at 40plus kg since primary school days! haha...
 
Shelled!
wah the hosp stay so torturing for u ah? i actually looking forward to it leh. me and my very own holiday! nobody to bug me! i hope i will pop after 38 wks cos next wk my boys got a whole week of tests i need to be home to revise with them!

how is josh taking to his "twin" baby brother? ur stitches ok? finally u can stop all ur complainings abt here pain there pain hor :)
 


Michelle
