so u inducing on 20th? My EDD listed as 29th Nov. So i still have about 10 more days of waiting for baby to pop naturally. But so far totally no signs of labour leh. I dont even feel baby "drop". And my gynae quite kan cheong abt baby growing too big inside. Last week she already 3.3kg. The thing im worried about inducing is that got higher chance of emergency C-sec. haiyah so xian....Anyways, do update your story once you pop! Wishing you all the best! and pass some "pop" dust to me plsssss haha
Oh btw, issit true they say that if the mummy menstrual cycle is unusually long/irregular, thats why the baby take a long time to come out...cos my period cycle is usually very long like 45 days average, sometimes some months also skipped...

U don't worry too much about urself and baby ya...coz u still have days to go before EDD. Ur baby seems in good weight and shall heed ur gynae's advice whether to induce or not when the time comes.

now waiting for my massage lady to come.. just had breakfast leh.. my digestive system super loud nowadays..everytime my tummy would gurgle during the massage, so pai seh!
shirlin,
i think should be la.. unless our gynae's charges differs alot. for me i didnt even have assisted delivery. i should have skipped the thigh job.. maybe can save more $ since it wasnt the least bit useful!!
yeah you can change your mind abt the room provided they got vacancy la. my hubby only changed his mind and decided to take 1 bedder for me only after baby came out.. but 1 bedder no room liao, left premier single so we just took that loh.
momoko,
usually babies prefer low and steady voices.. so chances are she's comforted by your hubby's voice lah..good that she perfers your hubby, then next time she cry u can just dump her to your hubby and say no choice, only he can soothe her.. then u can rest.. ha..
ayukie,
if you're a customer, i dont think she charges..u can sms her and ask la.. she's one of the nicest ppl i know.. =D
if she's available she'll be more than happy to help out.
sporty,
yeah i was also searching for the mouse! btw how u usually store your frozen ebm? i use lansinoh milk bags but quite expensive eh..maybe coz i freeze in too little quantity.. now i freeze 100ml only.. already used up 20 bags. maybe should freeze in 200ml.
ardenz,
actuall not much diff.. the premier single is bigger - as big as a 2 bedder room, and got computer for you to use. that's all.

Hi everyone,
Haven't been in for a few weeks now because my baby is still in special care in hospital. It has been 2 weeks since he was born.
Seems like most pple are able to express alot of milk. I am having some problems, only able to express 50 plus ml every 3 hours. I wonder if it is because my baby is not latching on. I have been expressing and bringing the milk to him everyday,
He has been taking in his milk by combination of tube feeding and bottle feeding. Do you think he will still be able to latch on when he comes home or will he get nipple confusion? I do hoe that if I can eventually latch him on, my milk supply will increase.

mitsy, sorry to hear abt ur bb...how come he's in special care? u can drink lotsa fluids and soups to increase ur milk supply... yes, i think can train him to latch on after he's discharge...maybe u make appt to see LC in the hospital with him before u go home... i hope he can go home soon... *hugs*

mitsy, hope your bb can come back soon.
sporty, same my gal also hands very strong. i swaddle her tight tight but somehow she can loosen herself with 2 hands outside and the beansprout also covering her.... then my girl also likes to flip her head left right until i don't know which side to place her... but since she can flip on her own, i think should be ok?

Hi,
Finally for the past 2 days, I started to have some milk. Took the pump to express out. Mine is a single manual pump...... quite tiring and didn't able to express too much milk. It's like almost 1 hr only able to pump out 1.5oz. Anyone
bought electric dual pump? Any recommendation? Might consider the Medela Freestyle pump.
Does your baby having colic? Coz it seems that my baby tends to have colic at night. Only last night seems better.
Tomorrow going for the jaundice check at the polyclinic again. 1st check was 114, 2nd check was 153. Tomorrow will be his 3rd check. Brought him to suntan a bit and bathe with some sort of Chinese seeds. Hopefully getting better.

Shirley, I also had the same problem as you. I suspected my baby had colic and brought him to see the paediatrician and he said it was not colic. Maybe you may want to bring him to see the paediatrician to double confirm.
Hi all, will like to check with you gals. Any of your babies had this problem, when he's sleeping, suddenly, he will cry and then go back to sleep again and then a few minutes again, he will cry and sleep again. He don't seem to be sleeping very well.

sporty, u not using ameda meh? i tot u were using ameda?
Hi Everyone,
Me pop too, hehe.
In the end i chose spinal anesthetic so that i am conscious and me and hubby can meet baby Yang Le 1st hand and witness his first cry.
Prove to be a right decision cos the experience was amazing!!
Would give up anything for the moment of receiving our bundle of joy.
Baby was 3.94kg!!! more than our estimated of 3.6kg w gynae jus 2 days ago!! so U know was soo soo glad i choose elective c-sec, even gynae & anesthetic doc was saying how right i was in the middle of op!!
wasnt scary at all, the tugging, pulling, cutting & sewing wasn't that significant once baby pop within 10mins into the op and all my attn was on baby instead of what my gynae was doing.
The anesthetic Doc did a great job too by administering the glucose drip (on the hand) and the spinal injection with minimal pain, not as painful as i thought it would be lor!!
It jus feel like a normal blood test needle prick, her name is Dr Pay if any one of u is interested.
Baby was suffering fr colic for the first time and was crying helplessly since last night at 5am!
he was so slpy yet will jerk up and cry abnormally while in slp, tink he is very uncomfortable.
We didnt know it was colic until we chg back to cup feed and he was a calm bb once more, stupid mummy.
Mummies out thr, any good milk bottle and teats to share? i am currently using avent bpa bottle + white teats.

Sporty> hahahaha, ya lor, and head circumference is 36!!@ keke, big baby, i ask the nurse in my gynae's clinic when i went bk to remove my stitches ystday if i hv hit her record so far for non-GD patients w such big bb, she say almost but got bigger babies at 4+kg and natural!?~??

sporty, really? do you know if the spree still going on? but do we have problems with adaptor for the motor etc? i think i seriously need to get a new one cos each time when it comes to pumping, i will avoid ameda and now associate the pump with pain.... sigh...
ariesgal, the shield is soft one...not bad quite comfy... no leh, it comes with standard ones...if u need smaller or bigger shield can get from robinsons ( i think they have as they sell FS too) or sprees..
