Hand & Foot Print: The shop is called ̥ë. They have few outlets. Other than the one at KK, there is one opposite TMC (Add: Blk 1 Thomson Rd).Other than the hand & food print, they also have other products like baby hair brush n umbilical cord stamp.
Post-natal Massage: Anyone tried Babies Bellies before? I tried their pre-natal massage and quite tempted to sign up for their post-natal massage.
Went checkup this morning and my bb's head finally turned down. Hurray! During my last checkup at 28 wks, she hadn't started to turn so I was a bit worried. Now she is in the right position alrdy. I hope she can guai guai stay in tat position for another 6 wks. Her weight now is 1.97kg. Also quite ideal. All my worries gone. So I went taka baby fair & bought her another 2 pink dresses right after the checkup... She alrdy has too many clothes liao.
I asked my hb to drop me at Novena MRT since he is going back to office after the checkup. Long time nvr took MRT and I just realised some ppl are really very inconsiderate. I carry such a big tummy standing in front of the priority seats somemore & people just busy playing wth handphone or reading their books or pretending to take a nap.. nobody cares to give me the seat. Sigh!

Calling for mummies who have decided NOT to keep your baby's cord blood! Pls consider donating your baby's cord blood to Singapore Cord Blood Bank. It is wasteful to discard the cord blood away just like tat since it can save life.... For more info, pls check out the link below:

Congrats tt baby's head is down now. Chances of her moving up is quite slim alrdy.
i take the MRT daily and trust me, only 1 out of 10 times was i offered the seat. Yes, there r ppl whom r playing wif their HP and glance up one eye at u and ur tummy then go back to their stupid games w/o giving up seats.
I dun wan to be the irritating pregnant woman whom stands in such a conspicuous area tt demands a seat from one of the passenger so i'll move in to the other side of the door once i step in. if ppl genuinely wants to give up their seat to me, they'll approach me.
I dun mind ppl whom r alrdy asleep when i board or those whom r reading books/mags all along and nvr look up at all. Aiyah i get used to it liao lah. Now its considered a bonus if i get a seat.
Wat i hate is stupid ppl tt keep staring at my tummy and not giving up their seat. I wanna snap back, "Hv u looked enuff??? Nvr seen a pregnant lady?!"
All the more angry wif those aunties... surely they hv all gone thru pregnancies. cant they b more considerate?!!! its those blue-collar workers tt tend to b more empathetic than those stupid smart-dressed white collared pple.
RE: Cord Blood
I donated my #1's cord blood. Oso felt tt it was too precious to be thrown away like tt. I had wanted to do tt for #2 as well but due to the low placenta all the way, gynae says she will not allow me to donate coz for low placenta, a lot of work 4 her to do to ensure mother & baby is safe. But now tt placenta has moved up, I am sure i'll donate! Will check wif gynae during my next visit and once she says ok, i'll make arrangements!

jrt: u donated the cord blood? was it troublesome? my gyne said the people are usually quite shorthanded, so to donate might be quite troublesome...

Unty & Annette: Any idea when is the metro sale ending? After yesterday's ordeal, I think I cannot tahan shopping at orchard anymore...so will only go when I see my gynae who is at Mt E and I will only see her next Monday.
Famela: I am teaching in Sec school. 90% of my load are graduating classes. So, now busy with marking of prelims paper...so now have to sit for a long time to mark...very very tedious..true about the weight and the walking around but what to do, have to 'save' the ML...really 'wrong' timing..sigh...Anyway I only have about 3-6 weeks to go. Just hang in there I guess...I try to think positively that the more I walk the easier it is to give birth (hopefully not my own wishful thinking)
And speaking of your Piko P3, you might want to walk around mothercare, Spring or major dept stores. I rem during GSS period, they do offer it at $598 for selected colours. That is if you are ok with the colours.

yeah i donated. Nah, not troublesome at all. I called them up and they will do a short interview wif u b4 u deliver. usually they carry out the interview when u go for gynae check-up. more convenient.
then i cant rem wat happens aft tt. mayb the hospital will inform SCBB when i am in labour or hospital will store the cord blood while waiting 4 them to collect? heee... i know its minimal disruption to me lah.

Hi all,
came back from my 35 week gynae check up sometime back. Dr said everything is ok so far. would be monitoring me every week. and he says that if labour doesn't start by 38 weeks, he'll either induce or do c-sect to take the baby out. sudden;y i'm feeling all anxious and nervous!!

Oh mummies!! *Tien raises hand...got a question*
Any good nipple gel to recommend? I tried my Medela one that came free with the BP and I hated it! It's like applying wax on nipple...then I went to see Avent's @ the Taka fair, slightly thinner so KIV-ing...Any other good recommendation? My colleague who has just returned from her ML said that it is better to apply now then after giving birth cos' by then can just use the breast milk to sooth the soreness...

noms: haha. i think its 40 leh. if its 37 then i'm in trouble. cos my hb gotta go overseas when i'm 36wks!!
blink, nomsnosm: full term is generally 40 weeks. but Dr said that baby's growth is good. and due to past history, he doesn't want to take any chance and bring the baby out in 38 weeks.
In my last pregnancy, due to heart complication, i had a still birth at 34 weeks. so Dr is being cautious i guess!!

Its not necc to apply nipple cream now. I think the texture of most nipple creams r like tt. v sticky so it will soothe the nipple cracks. I only used lansinoh one when i was bfg my #1 and it helps. When u really hv sore nipples, juz applying breastmilk will not help at all. U def need nipple cream. But usually at the end of e 1st mth, our nipples will hv gotten v seasoned and not be sore anymore.
Full term baby is anything fr 37 wks i think. by then baby's lungs r matured and will survive when they arrive.
Vin
I agree. Unless got valid medical reasons, i dun see why is there a need to b so anxious when there r still no signs of labour at 38 wks.

jRRt: I see..thanks for the tips. Actually I want to apply now as I am seeing some cracks and scaling of skin and it is very itchy. Where to get the Lansinoh one?
Vin: Be positive ok! You will do just fine! Just ensure that the things that you need are already packed! Jia you!
