casandra,
I agreed with Rach. Desitin is the best in the market for diaper rash.

Omg, my engorgement bad till so hard like rock. Tried cabbage, and the silicone cooler but still not good. Tried massaging and latch bb one also doesn't help. Wonder when will the engorgement be back to normal.

listening to your complaints about CL, I'm really thankful for mine. Initially quite worried before she came because she kept telling me her arm aching and even one week before my delivery she still didn't confirm whether she or her replacement coming. I was quite pissed at the way she handled coz she accepted my deposit of $300. Then on the day she is supposed to come, she only reached Kranji at 4.30pm when she stayed very near JB. That means by the time she reached my home, it would be around 6pm and was too late to prepare dinner anyway. I was quite worried about her attitude. Fortunately, once she started work, she is really quite good, especially in taking care of my baby. My only complain is her cooking. Nothing fantastic. Every dish of hers taste about the same. Plus she doesn't care much for nutrition, just want to be efficient so she pre-cuts everything and keeps them for a few days before cooking. She also tries to cook as early as possible, sometimes the day before, to safe time. Plus she cooks so much and I wonder where the food goes to. Thinks she throws away remainder coz she eats quite little herself.

I'm not envious about your position and I really admire your multitasking ability. That is why I am very sure I want to stop at 2.
MT6J, my boy was a frequent eater, like 1 1/2 hours and didn't sleep through the night until I started him on formula at 9 mths. Since that is my experience, I already find my girl such an angel. These few days, she has started to have some 2 1/2 stretches in the day time. I'm hoping it's a sign that the intervals are stretching.

your period is back???? But your are on TBF??? Are you sure it is not just the lochia. My lochia flow can stop a few days then suddently have a sudden gush for 1 day. That day stain my sheets coz I thought cleared and was only wearing panty liner.

I heard Desitin Creamy is very good but I haven't tried it myself. Must buy from pharmacy prescription counter. For prevention, I find that Mustela Barrier Cream is very good. CB CAlendula not strong enough lah. I've used that before too.

my boy is wearing pampers size S now. huggies size S couldnt fit him anymore and i also find it v hot for him. his bum is always red. actually i never like huggies but i recvd lots as gifts so just wear lor. u bought so much NB size? my ah boy have outworn his NB size since a week plus ago. i passed lots of huggies S to a friend who is due early next mth only left with few more. u want i can pass to u. i also have lots of drypers size S. let me know if any of u want cos i dun use drypers too.
CALENDULA CreAM
i been using this for many yrs. it works very well for mild nappy rash, eczema, bites, dry skin etccc... but think for very bad nappy rash its not enough. desitin is specifically for nappy rash.

Yes, I swear by Pampers to avoid diaper rash! There used to be Pampers Baby dry which was very thin (great for our weather) and not expensive but it seems to have been discontinued. So now only got Pampers Stages (Premium). Still the thinnest and most absorbent of all brands in my opinion. My boy hasn't had diaper rash before except for anus area caused by too much pooing.

aiyo dun scare me leh, dun tell me mine also will keep eating non stop till he is past 6 mths?? i need my sleep cos i need to focus on my older kids too! i been neglecting them, esp my primary 2 boys. didnt even have time revising their tests with them, thank God they did well. i might do trial and error give him a bottle of ebm for his 12am feed and see if it works.

talking abt food..thats what i'm very particular...
The good thing abt my CL is she cares about my nutrition..she even told me to buy So Hup Wan (to get rid of wind) from the medicinal shop.
so on the 1st day she arrived, she alredy went shopping with my HB to get mattress for herself (we forgot to buy one for her! but end up HB is sleeping on it, she sleeps with me on our queen size bed, HB sleeps living room..)
And everyday she'll pass a box of soh hup wan for me to eat.. morning and nite once...
$24 per box of 10... so its $2.40 each time i take one... every time i eat it.. i keep burping out alot of wind.....
and she ensures i eat my lunch and dinner HOT!
She'll chase me to eat when she finish cooking.
she'll say..quick...eat while its hot..dun use computer first...
and she'll check to see what time i can eat...
but usually its abt the same time.. should i fall asleep..she'll cook later so that when i get up, its still hot...
she'll scoop rice and pour soup and get everything on the table for me to eat...
once i finish eating.. i just get up frm the chair and walk back to my room..she'll clear everything up...
thats the good thing that i like abt her la...
and she'll check what i wanna eat or ask if i'm okay with certain menu..
most of the time i'm okay...
she only prepares the ingredients abt an hour before cooking..she doesnt prepare way beforehand..
and if there's leftover from lunch, she'll eat it for her dinner..she will not allow me to eat anything leftover.. even white rice she'll cook separately my portion for dinner...and herself or my HB will eat any leftover for dinner..
if there's any rice leftover from dinner, she'll fried rice the next day for herself or my HB...
i always get to eat the freshest food...for tat, i'm thankful for her.. and she cooks pretty nice also...
she dun like leftovers and ever since first few days she caught our eating portion, she dun cook that much extra...anything i cant finish, she'll eat it for herself or next meal...
and she buys just tao kwa, or fish ball or fish cake for her own meal on certain days..most of the time, she just eat what i eat...and what i leftover...
get desitin creamy from Jenifur's BP la..$9 only.. i not sure local sell how much...sure is more exp...
<font color="ff0000">mama6></font>
hehehe.. i only bought 4 packs of NB huggies..which is 96pcs... plus Mount A gives NB Huggies too..so far i've used 4 packs of Huggies NB in 16 days... left last pack to go...
and i've got Nepia NB which i got from my fren...her gal outgrown it too...so i just buy over about 50-60 pcs i think...
after Nepia no more NB liaoz..
I bought 2x Huggies S 44x2 = 88pcs..
and my fren has about 120pcs from her leftovers as well.,and i cop it from her... all for $20.. haahhaa...she also gave me dryers S & M....all stacked away now.. i dunno when to use it..have some Fitti S & M samples alos.. wahahaha.....
And i've got a Pampers M size as gift also....
Dryers M size also gift....
so.. ya loh....
MMmm.... if u really not using... can pass me la... but how u gonna pass to me? hehehe...

YES. It's because of them. I cried for an hour plus till i fell asleep last night. Because of them, end up i quarrelled with hb too... feel so upset.. ): Want to rest also cannot, keep having people disturbing me... sigh.. i dont even feel like having confinement that kind except that i really cant bathe like usual.... other than that, i look like a maid cum mother. I haven't shower already here pain there pain.. so trying to lun until 12th day then shower. I every night sleep in aircon but it's at 29 degrees that kind. Better than nothing...

You shed lochia for how long? So fast your period is back! That's wierd when you total bf leh.. Each time period is back, our milk flow will drop?
<font color="aa00aa">milkyway</font>
How to rest? I have headaches every night, i think i not enough rest. TOtally not enough sleep... every noon got to entertain people... machiam CNY... and they can stay like HOURS lor... my relatives come about the most an hour go off liao.. else my sisters come they help me look after i nua a little bit...
THere are 2 kinds of jab i think. 5-in-1 should be the usual one, 6-in-1 i heard is better.. you check with the doctor lor. The usual date stated in your health booklet is the normal jab's date. WHich i believe is the 5-in-1 i guess.

Hi All! Ohmygawd, I'm sooo tired these days, just like everyone here I'm sure
.
Anyways, 3 weeks later... here's my baby's birth story...
Was induced on the 3 of Sept because she was past her due date and the doctor was worried she’d be too big for me to have naturally. So I saw the Dr Khi at 10am, went shopping (not the best idea), had a great Japanese lunch (chewing between contractions), then back to the doctors, still not dilated at all, even when the contraction were 5/6 mins apart. Sent home to wait, at 9pm, the husband insist we head to the hospital.
Contractions every 2 mins and I’m 1cm dilated at around 11pm. At 2.06am, my waterbag burst (finally) and whoa what a gush, 3cm dilated! Everything is kind of a haze from then on because the only thing keeping me sane is the ‘laughing gas’ (like having a GREAT SHEESHA SESSION!!) , you can feel everything but you’re kinda above it all. At around 4am, I don’t think I opened my eyes till she was born… I remember thinking 1. Never again 2. What was I thinking? 3. Why did I agree to get induced? 4. God invented pain relief for a reason!
Through the haze of pain and Nitrous Oxide, my husband was by my side reminding me to breathe, rubbing my back, making sure the baby was ok (heart rate etc), talking to the nurses, it was lovely to just close my eyes, focus on one voice and just do what had to be done.
By 6am, I was in agony and I just wanted the pain to end! Please let me push already. At 7.50am, I saw some long and purple-ish thing get put on my chest (took me a second to realise it was my daughter), I saw the husband cut her cord and then go shutter happy.
That's all folks

I already typed out my response to your supplier's price, only to scroll down and see you revoked what you said earlier.
OK, i pretend you didn't say anything.
<font color="ff0099">mamijoan</font>
My gynae check de leh. According to uterine wall lining, size of uterus/womb, etc... She say it's my period.
In any case I really don't think it's lochia also. Cos my baby already 5wks old liao leh. The lochia stopped since he was 3wks old, then cannot be 2wks later suddenly start gushing again for 2 days right? The smell/color also not alike to lochia leh.
But if there's any chance it's NOT my period, then good lor. At least no need to have "auntie visit" every month. So not looking forward to bleeding for 4-5 days every month again...

Shelled> You recommended Melrose Place for catering some time ago? Cos I thinking of getting them for baby full month... so they will zhun zhun come on time? Food is enough for everyone, and tastes fine? Used to order from Fu Kwee, food is fantastic, but very expensive. 8 dishes including drink is $12 per person!
Rach> Uh.. did I reply to you regarding why I dun want my ML to carry on maintenance... geez, her last session, she already guessed I don't wanna continue cos I vaguely said I will call her if I wanna leisure massage (as opposed to her wanting me to take another 5 consecutive times), then that last session, she did not massage one of my hands... sigh... and she left earlier cos she said got stomach ache.. hmmm... luckily I never extend with her. I gave up on Mona liow, am contacting my previous ML to see if she is free!
princessxiaomei> you sound really stressed! My #1 I also did confinement myself, with MIL to cook the food, but I had not maid, and worse still, my baby could not latch on so I was pumping exclusively and feeding her... and washing her clothes etc!! Nearly got post-natal depression...
So this time #2, I told my MIL I will do parts of confinement if I like it. So I still go out with hubby to nearby mall to breathe air, still wash stuff like my pump etc with water... still blow fan... She keep nagging, so I ask her you want me to get post-natal depression or not? She claimed not so easy to get, and I retorted I am the one who gave birth, not her leh.. then she quiet.. hahaha...
Now the most impt thing is to take care of our health (and your wound down there still hurts right?) and baby... so no need to give "face" to anyone!!
Rach> Uh.. did I reply to you regarding why I dun want my ML to carry on maintenance... geez, her last session, she already guessed I don't wanna continue cos I vaguely said I will call her if I wanna leisure massage (as opposed to her wanting me to take another 5 consecutive times), then that last session, she did not massage one of my hands... sigh... and she left earlier cos she said got stomach ache.. hmmm... luckily I never extend with her. I gave up on Mona liow, am contacting my previous ML to see if she is free!
princessxiaomei> you sound really stressed! My #1 I also did confinement myself, with MIL to cook the food, but I had not maid, and worse still, my baby could not latch on so I was pumping exclusively and feeding her... and washing her clothes etc!! Nearly got post-natal depression...
So this time #2, I told my MIL I will do parts of confinement if I like it. So I still go out with hubby to nearby mall to breathe air, still wash stuff like my pump etc with water... still blow fan... She keep nagging, so I ask her you want me to get post-natal depression or not? She claimed not so easy to get, and I retorted I am the one who gave birth, not her leh.. then she quiet.. hahaha...

Do you mean Melrose Bake House? Yup, I've used them 3 times in total now, and they always arrive early.
Ie: My buffet starts @ 6pm, they will arrive at 5pm to setup and everything. Confirm food ready by the time guests arrive.
They always give 10% more food (as they told me lah) but I feel it's a lot more than that. We ordered 90pax for approx 100 guests, and ended up with ALOT of leftovers, good enough for everyone to eat 3 rounds.
So subsequently I've learnt how to gauge their servings accurately. For K's full mth, I order 35pax for approx 40 guests. Everyone had 2nd rounds with a bit of leftovers.
Quality of food is more than fine. Which is why everyone always go for 2nd round. Personally I'm quite particular about food quality, so I wouldn't have ordered from them 3 times if the food was only so-so. One thing though, avoid ordering the pork chop. Strangely, ppl just don't seem to enjoy it that much.
Price for quality wise, it's really damn good deal @ $10/pax (Queen's Choice – 9 dishes 1 drink) lor.

I also thought TBF won't come back so fast de. But maybe I weird case lor...
Your drypers what size?? Ya lah, if too big then everything just flow out de. Very gross.
Personally I don't like drypers lo. Give my boys diaper rash. We only use Pampers for J last time, but the Pampers cutting machiam too big for K's thighs, keep leaking!! So have to let him wear Fitti. But as long as don't leak, and no diaper rash, I don't really care what brand.

hahahha...so sorry...coz i asked for $30 for all colors and $22 for limited stock..
think if she really offer the price..she dun earn much at all..so she decided not to bring it in..
coz glamourmom actually needed her to do TT instead of payment by credit card..and only can ship via vpost..which means extra costs..
so all in all..not worth it...and they are not offering very cheap rates to her as well...

Shelled> Ok, will take your comments to hubby and let him decide.. cos last few times everytime buffet catering is Fu Kwee and honestly I also very sian of the food liow..
princessxiaomei> Hahaha, when I talk back, I do so in a reasonable tone, never raise voice etc lah. So where got disrespectful? I VERY respectful one.. hehehe.. I always thank her politely for anything she does.. her meals for me etc.. and I will repay her back, be it in terms of $ or other things, so I don't owe her anything, else next time she sure use it against me!
My #1, she goes around boasting to everyone that she does full confinement service for me! When in fact, she only cooks the meals, and looks after #1 in the morning like 8 - 10 am for 2 hours while I nap.. the rest of the day, I was taking care of baby myself!! I appreciate her help nonetheless, but just can't tolerate the fact that she paints herself as a self-sacrificing mathyr..
rach> Maybe Mona is not happy with me!! Cos when I call her on the friday, she ok with starting on sat (the next day), then sat morning sms me say cannot, must wait til tue. Of course, I am not happy. So I said I will go find another one then. So I took my neighbour's reccomendation loh, and started on sat. Then Mona sms me in afternoon or something, and told me can start sunday, but I sms her back that I already confirmed another ML liow... so maybe she angry???
If she can come do mine, it'll be good, cos my ML (the one just finished) said my womb is not ok yet, so I also don't know if true or not, so now a bit anxious....
It'll be great if you can ask her for me, thanks!! I'm the one staying in Yishun.

I went to the polyclinic to check (cos new mummies are in priority queue for 1 month after giving birth) and the doctor told me the wound is just taking much longer to heal.. sigh.. my #1 the wound did not hurt at all!
Just be sure to keep the area clean (wash after each pee-ing / poo-ing session: I simply sprayed with water can, never go and rub it or anything ok!). And dap dry. Hygiene is very impt, since it is an open wound!
Also, take lots of fibre so that when poo-ing, won't strain the area somemore.. can take prune juice if poo-ing is tough. But in moderation, else you'll LS!
And take your painkillers if you can't tolerate! Panadol will do.
If you have one of those floats to sit on, will be good, cos will not aggravate the wound.
If there's discharge / blood, need to see doctor immediately.
Ok, Nurse Jade is done with the advice!

Shelled,
I love the way you handle your toddler's feelings and still pend quality time w him. You're a very good mummy.
question on bf : when does baby's frequency and length of each feeding get lesser? At the moment, she's feeding every 2-3 hrs for up to an hour each time. That means 8 hrs or more each day just sitting down feeding her, cant do much else. My family is moving to Wellington in Dec, and I'm afraid I cant manage both kids plus unpacking etc if I spend so much time bfing. By that time, she'll be 3 mths old. Wondering if I should stop bfing by then or not.

sorry to scare you! They do get easier even though not sleeping through the night. If I recall correctly, around 2 mths onwards, my son only woke up once for feeding btn the 11pm and 6am feed. This pattern went on till 9 mths and is actually very ideal for maintaining milk supply. If you don't wake up at least once in the middle of the night to feed or express, supply will drop quite quickly leh.

yes, many places still have S size Pampers baby dry. But I don't have space to stock up too many packs lah. They have discontinued, now clearing stock. They replaced with Pampers Comfort which is very lousy although very cheap. The outer covering is plastic, very little ventilation. I bought before and didn't even finish using.

for my boy, if after urine not wet then I just change him. But in the early months, since he was on TBF, almost every change is with poo. I use baby wipes then dry with tissue paper. After that, use diaper cream. No need powder if you use diaper cream. Powder may not be good for those with sensitive nose so I didn't use that until he was older.

hhehe..can i tell u y she angry???
she made arrangements wuth another client to change slot with u...
she told the other client urs is urgent need to start first..the other cust agreed to change, and she immediately call u back...
but u told her u found someone else liaoz.. in a span of 1-2 hours...she did tried her best to accomodate u also la...
but... well..not fated lo...
so she felt bad towards the other customer as well..made her delay and yet didnt get to do u....
actually cannot start too early..coz need time for the uterus to shrink back first...
too early u dun allow the uterus to shrink back a bit first.will cause uterus tear...non-stop bleeding..
thats why initially she told u 6 days later...
anytime after 5 days will be safer...
erm.... yah... i was asking her the other time someone booked her but in the end never get to do..
she knows its u...
but she really schedule very packed... hehehe...so reply abit slow...
u wanna try sms her again? when she come in the afternoon i'll ask her again..
i still cannot rem... the reason why u didnt want to continue with ur ML??
as in..after the 5 sessions, since she said ur womb not okay, why u didnt continue with her??
too exp? she no good??
my stitches are not healed yet too... i checked with my gynae yest during follow up..
i was right that he cut, and it tore... coz bb too big...
so no choice...my suspicion was right.. coz i was thinking how come the stitch is all the way to the anus?
coz usually they cut away from anus..
so... it was cut..and tear... so taking longer to heal..and there's pus near the anus area...
but gynae says my wound is already healing well... very good already...
continue to soak salt water and he give me another bottle of spray..and antiseptic cream to apply...
hur hur hur.... the spray this time round hurts when its being sprayed on... *ouch*
today is day 18 liaoz.. sigh..he says people take 1 month to heal also..
and the bigger then baby, the longer it takes to heal...
okay..mine is ultimate..coz its already to the anus... nowhere else to tear to liao.... >.<"
poor bottom....

when u went back to ur gynae on the 4th day, he didnt give u another day to return back?
after my visit yest (2 weeks after delivery), gynae told me to go back 4 weeks later to check wound, should fully recover by then,
and to check uterus, to see if all clear, no more blood, and to do pap smear... after that is yearly checkup,
and my cheeky gynae as usual, says.." also to follow up on ur next baby plan... "
hahahha...
he said not to waste my capacity...its meant for twins...and next one should be 3kg each... FAINT!! >.<"

So strange. How come Glamourmom cannot ship directly to SG for her? Then when we order spree they can ship directly? Qi guai lor...
TBF = Total Breastfeeding = No FM given. But I don't think got specification about whether it's EBM or latching bb on lah.
<font color="ff0099">Twiggy</font>
Aiyo, you're making me blush. SAHMs are supposed to spend quality time with the kids, no? I always tell my friends that i'm not a housewife, cos I don't give a shit about the house. I'm only home for the kids.
I think a lot of mommies would be able to do the same as well if they were not overstretched by other commitments like work.
It's not a given for older babies to nurse less or shorten length of sessions. In fact, sometimes they actually nurse even longer because they require more milk. Some babies just "eat" slowly, and there's really nothing much we can do about it. Maybe you can try nursing her in a baby sling so you can at least have one free hand to do something?

Same like mamijoan, I don't use wet wipes if the area is clean and dry. If dirty then use wet wipes, dab dry with cotton wool, apply diaper cream, put on diaper.
Have never used powder for diaper changes cos I don't see a need. Powder so messy! And I cannot imagine when the pee mix with the powder, then turn into some sticky substance stuck to the bumbum.

Your gynae never schedule for you to do checkup at 6wks postpartum? I dunno about other gynae but mine ask me to go back to check on wound/bleeding/etc 6wks after delivery. It's also the time when she'll discuss contraceptive options with me. Unfortch cos I tio period, cannot put in the IUD so have to wait til next cycle. SIANZZZZ.

I think quite safe to say that lochia should stop around the time bb full mth. Although supposed to be able to discharge up to 8wks leh. See how much lochia you have lor.
So strange. How come Glamourmom cannot ship directly to SG for her? Then when we order spree they can ship directly? Qi guai lor...
TBF = Total Breastfeeding = No FM given. But I don't think got specification about whether it's EBM or latching bb on lah.

Aiyo, you're making me blush. SAHMs are supposed to spend quality time with the kids, no? I always tell my friends that i'm not a housewife, cos I don't give a shit about the house. I'm only home for the kids.
It's not a given for older babies to nurse less or shorten length of sessions. In fact, sometimes they actually nurse even longer because they require more milk. Some babies just "eat" slowly, and there's really nothing much we can do about it. Maybe you can try nursing her in a baby sling so you can at least have one free hand to do something?

same as other mummies for boy's nappy changing, but i don't put powder. think CL said must make sure boy's birdie must be placed in the centre before u cover with diaper, to prevent urine spraying to the side and leak

i read from somewhere TBF = total latching / direct from breasts, then there is another term called TBM = total breastmilk (latch and/or expressed BM). but think no need to differentiate until so chim lah

Eh, I also got spectragel both times. I also don't like how it sticks to clothing! Esp my finger hor... after applying, no matter how i wipe or wash is still sticky!! So I use those cheap plastic gloves (1 box $2 for 100 gloves), cut off the finger part to slip over my finger when I apply gel. Then remove and throw! Then my finger not sticky also. hurhurhur.
I dunno is it the gel or what, but my wound really heal very nicely de. So just apply lah! Will prevent those ugly ugly keloid scar tissue. And it's not cheap also lor, so better use hor.
My gynae also ask me to take Hep B cos mine already "expired" and need to vaccinate again. But I told her I will do at my GP lah.
As for contraceptives, you can also go to your GP. If you intend to use condoms, don't even need to see any doctor at all.
I feel it is better to go back to gynae to check on your wound/uterus lah. But it's up to you lor. Cos if you go see other doc about your wound/uterus, unless they are gynae, I don't think they will know as much leh.

I apply cream everywhere except on the penis and testicles. Basically is cover the whole ass and especially in the folds at the inner thighs and under the testicles.
I think cream should get near the penis in case go under their foreskin.
