Yup Pauline thought tat givin birth soon...then call hubby get ready to drive to tmc but then nw back home bathe finish nw seems ok...but juz felt the pressure in the pelvic area causes sharp pain...duno is it false alarm...Hai yo....headache leh...Then check c if water bag got burst or leak also nothing
 


Pauline,

My next visit will b Thursday gynae said it will b my last one so....if tdy n tommorow there's still no sign tink I will most Lille b induce bah...how abt u??
 
Genesis, me too. Last night, thought it's contraction pains but after that, nothing. A bit disappointed actually. hee. ;)

Mine is this Fri, 4 Dec. If still no signs, Dr Wong is also going to talk to me about inducing. Will you consider inducing on EDD or earlier?
 
Hi Tris,yes he told me he on leave from 6-16 Dec.
I am due on 28 Dec ....so he be back on my 38 weeks.

For me, he scheduled me every 4 weeks then next visit 3 weeks later on week 38 when he is back ..he told me will see me weekly after week 38 which i tot shld start on week 36.
 
Genesis! Wow! This is it. Lucky you, no need to induce liao. Jia you! And have a smooth delivery!

Oh ya! Remember to put 1-2 continence sheets under your car seat if you are still leaking. The water will leak all the way until you reach hospital. For me, it was like that. Water just gushing down non stop. :p
 
genesis, all the best, you can do it!
happy.gif
can wear a night pad to help with the leaking on the way to hospital. actually if your gynae is okay with it, you don't have to rush to the hospital straightaway as long as your amnio fluid is clear and you are not having brown or greenish amnio fluid.

sandy, my edd is 13dec, was hoping bb come out on my bday but now i bth cos i've been having numb, achy legs and swollen feet for so long cos i put on so much weight this preg.
 
Once you reach hospital, they won't allow you to walk around and may not allow you to eat as well. So, eat something before you go. Drink some chix esssence (if you do take) and bring 1 or 2 bottles there for your hubby as well in case it's a long night.
 
Thanks ladies...me nw in delivery ward lying down after some checks I'm nw 1cm dilated...seems like it will b a long wait liao....nw feelin hungry....
 
Congratulation to mummies who have popped! I'm also on ML already this afternoon went to si ma lu to buy confinement herbs. Tomorrow going for my weekly check up..

morning mummies, been missing for a few days cos busy with my princess..

Congrats, miumiu.... finally... c ur bb already. and also congrats to all mummies who pop..

Now I kind of miss those days when I could be free and sleep through the night. My baby ah, always drink milk till she falls asleep and very hard to wake her up to latch on the other side.. tortured me for 2 hours last night.
 
Morning Mummies..

Genesis.. CONGRATULATIONS.. ya no need to induce.. let nature take its course :) ..

sleek.. I see..13 Dec should be very fast le.. cos most of mummies here.. seem to deliver 2-3weeks earlier.. except for a few.. very close to edd... juz relax and njoy now.. thou I know carrying and walking with that big barge not ez... (same for me)... but when bb is delivered.. it will be a tiring day everyday too ;p
 
manunited: its quite rare that California Baby products will give your baby rashes. Nevertheless, if the rashes is bad, can apply a few days of Desitin cream first. It will help. Hope baby's rashes will be better soon.

As for pumping, 2 to 3 hours is about right. Once you establish the supply, then you can go 3 to 4 hours.

Doozie: congrats

Hi all,

Pauline has been having contractions since 6+am this morning. She's now strapped to the CTG machine in the clinic and will probably deliver sometime today. No live updates for her cos clinic no wireless@sg.
happy.gif
 
miumiu, havent delivered.. haha.. monday visit to gynae said bb not engaged yet.. still quite high up..

i'm going for natural.. wondering can i last minute request for YC Lim to help me with epidural not lehz.. coz i scared now tell gynae, then i admit hospital tt time they straight-away give me epidural?
 
TMC anaesthetist Dr Phua WT is also very good with administering epidural fyi, just in case if anyone needs an alternative. But I think his fees are a bit more expensive.
 
Congrats to all mummies who have popped!!!!
Getting excited!!!! Can't wait for my turn!!

Roxy,
Where can I get the cup for cup feeding?

Mummies,
Few weeks back, there was an dicussion regarding drinking coconut. Somebdy mentioned NOT to drink those thai coconuts. Why huh?
I cldn't get those local coconut leh.
 
calamari, my mom said drink water after deliver will end up with tummy... i wanted to ask her to boil some red dates longan tea for me.. coz i told my MIL, she was saying 'ridiculous' n said can go ahead drink plain water...

it's so difficult when mother and MIL have different opinions... *sighz*
 
cayenne: yah i know. It is worse if mom, mil and confinement lady all have different opinions!!

snowpear: are u delivering at TMC? If so, can get the cup for cup feeding at Parentcraft. As for anaesthetist, you can request for a specific one if you know. If not, the hospital will assign you one. As for my gynae, he always ties up with anaesthetist Dr Phua. I used him for my no.1 and he is very good, no pain at all. Didn;t even know the epidural was already administered. And throughout the epi and c-sect procedure, we were chatting away like old friends haha.
 
Hi Calamari,

Is C Sect scary? My 1st time doing C sect in case my girl dont turn head down by next week..

Anything or food I should avoid after C Sect? Will it takes longer to heal?
 
Yiqi
Think u can wait until Dr Tham is back to deliver for you.

Congrats to mummies who have delivered!!

Btw, this morning I have spotting again. But no pain. Bb is playing wif me again.
 
Hi mummies, good morning. Im counting down. 2 days more and i can rest at home to wait for baby to arrive...gosh...hope time can fly. my heart is not at work anymore but at this forum!

Congrats Miumiu! I can really feel your excitement and tbf is good! Keep it up!

Genesis: Jia you!

Congrats to all mummies! jia you!

I will be logging in soon again to hear more good news!
 
joanna: yes! dark dark one. Big eyes. You can see his photo at http://www.thomsonmedical.com/pdf/FY2008_Annual_Report.pdf page 32 hahahaha. Our gynae's pic is there too.

mummyfel: Don;t worry. C-sect is ok one.
happy.gif
I know it sounds scary that you will be cut up but seriously the pain is bearable. I have a super low threshold of pain and allergic to almost all painkillers and to me, its still ok. The pain will be more from the contraction of the womb. However, because its unnatural, the pain will really totally only go away after a few months and the wound part will be numb for about 9 months. And you cannot carry heavy things for 6 months nor exercise for that period of time. I avoided eating seafood although I did succumb to temptations after a few months lah hahaha. And to prevent keloids, apply the cream that doc give you religiously. The scar may look long in the beginning but it will shrink as your stomach shrinks. My scar shrunk to only 3.5 inches after 9 months. As you can see, natural birth is always best but sometimes circumstances don't permit. So don't worry k? All will be well.

Tri.. when is ur edd? spotting doesn't mean must come with pain nei??

miumiu... well done.. not scary right...hehehe...

mummyfel.. c-sect not scary la... but for 1st mum.. might be painful cos will be an operation..like miumiu.. she is coping well... and commented not much pain ya..
 


Thanks Calamari for the advice. Ya, it really sounds scary to me when my gynae said she will C sect me on 14th Dec if baby still dont turn...

No exercise for 6months??? Then how to lose weight...sob sob...
