Elly,
Thanks for the info on SPD. First time for me to hear this. Will definitely read on it and google abt it. I have roughly go through the article you shared but don’t think mine is that serious. Mine is really the bone that is painful. Like or-che kind of feeling? First time for me too.. But I think it’s gone already. I believe is the hormone acting up again because when we’re in the 3rd trimester, we will have a surge of hormone again, very similar to 1st trimester. So, some mummies will get the MS again and last, I started to have the heartburn again. Thankfully, it’s subsided now. And I started to bleed more when I brush my teeth which stop when I was in my 2nd trimester. So, I strongly believe the hormone surge is preparing my body for the birth
Yes, for my 1st, I really don’t know what is Braxton hicks. The sensation is like tummy tightening and it feels like your stomach wants to explode..haha.. Super uncomfortable but it’s not painful though.

The organizer that you saw from amazon, I really doubt it can stay that shape. I bought something similar from isetan baby section and it always slant down with the weight from the baby wipes, containers, etc. I had to do something to it to make it upright. It only looks nice lah but in reality never so sturdy..hehe…
Re: spirit swap/ cord spirit to clean the umbilical stump,
According to my nurses at raffles hospital when I gave birth to my no.1, the latest practice is not to use alcohol swap because research has shown that water can equally do a better job. I cleant my girl with only water and baby oil and no infection or whatsoever. The thing to note is to ensure the belly button area is not damp.
