Mezzo, you should go hospital when you've 10min interval contractions. time your contractions. once its a regular pattern that last about an hr or gettin more intense, you know your sleepless nights are ahead.
breastfeeding,
wow missbluey I totally can relate to what you said. I'm also driven craze by the 1hr feeding pattern esp at night. nearly collapse. my hubby who is not doing the latch can still complain that baby is so noisy, he's collapsing. i was so mad with him. not as if he 's doing anything to help.
so, 2nd night I decided to latch on first for 30min. then give FM after that, and he slept thru 3hrs. its such a breather for me (and the complaining hubby). and I 've to complain a little here. now that baby has treated us as human pacifier, whenever baby cries, my hubby will auto tell me to go latch baby on. geez its like baby and hubby treating me like human pacifier.
#1 behaviour
kelly, Me used the give presents tactic that you taught me and it works VERY WELL! must say big thanks to you. my #1 used to give a terrible attitude before I deliver. now he glee when he see didi. but cos he still unsure whether didi is a competitor for love and care, he sometimes will still be v sticky to my hubby. he sort of knew tt I hv to take care of didi and did not really demand me to take care of him. we talk and share a lot about didi to him and now he knows tt he's a big brother and will teach didi to play wii. he 's v happy with the present that didi gave him at the hospital and sayang didi. but I think we've to consistently give him attention and reason things with him cos kids are v forgetful.
summer82,
congratulations!
Sheryl,
mdm zaliah came to do massage for me already. think she's pretty good. her oil smells like sarsi to me. haha. nice smell. her strokes are v powerful and precise. but only her bengkong is super difficult to tie. v different fr my last massage lady. she is super punctual wo. thumbs up.
to all mummies whose babies hv jaudice, hang in there. it must hv been v heart pain to see baby being pricked. today I was at Mt A for the jaudice test for my baby. Almost felt like murdering the lab staff. this staff give a bochap attitude. then pricked already take her own sweet time to collect the blood, press and press my baby feet and made him cry. then when she realise not enough to colour the palate , she SLOWLY press some morei faintz! I think polyclinic can do better than her.
