Jane, yeah many of of classmates bought a lot of things...I didn't though.
Kimifin, regarding the confinement tea, my mum told me she is just going to include red dates and black beans. No other dates or longan cos she said all those will be too sweet and cause phlegm / wind in the body. She said she has checked with the "experts" in the medical halls and she always listen to those Chinese Physicians dispensing advice on radio. I'll just leave it to her.
My mum also advice me to down a bottle of chix essence before I go to the hospital.....and also drink milo if I can..so that I will have enough energy to last me throughout the labour.

Somehow, most of us got just bearly 4 weeks plus to go...
how excited are you?
Maybe cos I am trying to clear work, so not so nervous yet...
but of cos, been dong my antenatal exerciese faithfully. Rem to do the butterfly position, its sitting on the floor, but with the soles touching each other. It will help prevent soreness during delivery.
Saw the news on the tennis mum whose fitness got better after childbirth? so forget about the pain, rem, it's helping us to build a better physic n prepare to take care of the little one!

Jane, nah dun intend to get anything. At first wanted to get the swaddle cloth cos Sporty mentioned it was very good...but then I have a few swaddling cloths at home already. Then hubby asked if we should get the avent barrier cream, but I reminded him that he was the one who said no need to get that yet during the Taka baby fair (and it was cheaper then).
yday my mum double boiled chicken essence freshly "squeeze out" frm chicken for me to drink. inverted a bowl, & place the chicken on top, so that essence may flow down & collected within the bowl. So yummy. The whole thing cost $50 cos of the increasing price of "dong chong cao". Has anyone bou "dong chong cao" for confinement??
ashley> hehehe. my dh also ask me not to buy anyting but i still tinkin of the small wash cloth and swaddling blanket. maybe if buy will only get those 2. ur husb hor don look like that kind got 'fiery' temper lei. i find it erm, hard to beliefve!
saintbb> i am not sure if u r keen on lookin for a new job maybe after ur deliveuy. my fren is lookin for someone to do computer work. let me know if u r keen

Rue,
my gynae just want to play safe, he would rather ensure that the BH will not turn into premature labour or to settle me in hospital with the contractions this early. ($$$?)
For me, the side effects are headaches, but occasional...not as bad as I thought.
I also took this progesterone in my early stages in the 1st trimester to stabilise the womb. (an tai). At first, I tot it worse my morning sickness, but so far, in 3rd tri, I can eat normal.
Seek advice from you doc.
From the antenatal class, realise this hormone is important too..just that my doc did not really go further to take test to see if my levels are low.
