hi mummies,
went for my 31weeks checkup this morning. bb is weighing @ 2.1kg, so i have gained 10kgs minus his weight, keke. gynae said his growth is very good and his head is down already. hopefully, he will stay in that position till i pop but i think still quite early to say so, ya?
he said i have quite abit of water retention on my calves, advised me to put up my legs when i sleep which i always forgot, heh. he asked me whether i walk alot. but i thought walking is supposed to help??? hmmm...
will be going back to see him in a mth's time then after that will be on 2 weeks interval. told gynae i hope to go for induced labour when bb is @ full term, he doesn't seems very approved about it, haha.
The Pop Day is getting nearer! *nervous*
tps really cuts down waiting time ALOT, except i have to get my med from the pharmacy outside cuz inside has no more stock. anyway, all were done in less than an hr.

missbluey,
tat time whn i went for my chkup whn i was in 27wks...my bb head was already down n i did asked my gyane if bb's head would move up again..he said unlikely bt if move up then prb. will be in breech position ...so have to keep fingers crossed that bb head will stay down until we pop....

kelly,
i used no-brand disposable panties for my #1. this time, im trying sorella cotton disposable panties. bought only 2pkts. heard from dianajs (i think) that her massage lady say to wear normal panties as our skin will stretch back, something like that. but my mil told me im to wear disposable panties during confinement.
but hor, i forgot to ask whether can wash anot. if you are buying from sorella, can help me ask?? hee.
re: maternity pads
i used 2 pads for heavy flow during 1st 2 weeks.
re: bb position

Kelly, if it's those slim pads it's ok.. but not sure how it would feel with thicker pads though.. i always turn when i sleep, but the overflow is always behind at the butt crack there.. my blood can really flow fast.. put 35cm still can overflow.
Mezzo17, tis 包大人 is maternity pad ar? funny name for a pad.. reminds mi of 包凊天.

i complained to gynae about the pain/ache im having these days. he said unless i have fall down there before, i won't be having that kind of pains. he suggested applying cream (i don't know how to apply @ that area), he don't really approve of prescribing painkillers. initially i thought the pain is coming from pelvic but he said its cord-dix. sorry, i don't know how to spell, but is that such a word???
missbluey,
disposal still can wash ar?? ok ok...i go SK metro and ask the lady if it can be washed n update u, ya....
i aso did ask my gyane abt the occasional pains in lower part of my tummy/pelvic area...he said it was becos this is my #2, so the muscle there not as strong as before so smtimes will feel the pain bt it is normal....

sberry122,
I have been wanting so much to go for pre-natal massage, but end up postponing the session. Dun think I will be doing it anymore since advancing into last trimester. Coz I dun think I can lie that for that 60mins for the session.
Some info which may helps you...

re: Maternity Pads
I remembered once I was discharged from the hospi after delivering #1, I stop using the maternity pads coz I find it tough to tie them 'here and there'. I used the Sofy Ultra Long series (35cm NightPad) and I find it ok.
SandyLee,
U alright? Rest well and take good care.
Bluberi,
Wah... U sounds like a kid, lose one of your socks after waking up in the morning. Haha... Yes, I tend to be in this state @ times too. So I try wearing more fitting socks. I even try to wear long pants to keep my calves 'warm' to avoid cramps. Not sure if it works, but try since no harm.
Wearing socks in the night suppose to keep soles warm and promotes better sleep. That's why it's encourage for kids to wear socks to sleep, especially sleeping in air-con room. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Gitz,
If I am not wrong, the so-called critical scans during pregnancy if seeing gynae in gov hopsi will be during 12 weeks (1st tri screening), 20 weeks (detailed scan), 32 weeks (detailed growth scan). Besides that, there is no normal ultrasound scans like consultation @ private hospi. That's the diff.

Kelly: 2 pad not uncomfortable! In fact I find it quite comfy. Especailly for those who go thru natural. Use normal pad and put the cheap motes maternity pad on top. Very cushion leh.. But i go through c sect so I don't need such thick pad..
Re prenatal massage: I used to go for my first pregnancy as I'm having severe backache. My massage lady did not touch my tummy at all. Mainly on the back and very gentle kind. In fact is just to relax our body.. After one day also will have backache.. Post natal massage is much better cuz more strength is used and after that can feel everywhere is loosen up.. This pregnancy I dontt hink I'm going for prenatal massage unless my back really aches...

Hi gals
Thanks for the advice, seem that wk 32 is the norm for detailed scan, shall stick to it then. I guess it is the sense of insecurity & anxiousness of having to wait for 5 wks to see the gynae n the little baby inside me that made me wanting to bring forward my appt. Must tell myself to be more patient, time flies.
Doobum
So we are both expecting our baby to arrive in end June although our official EDD is 1 Jul.
Jalgal
Please help to update my details: EDD 1 Jul, boy, KKH, Dr SF Loh, PTWM, Sembawang.

Weight gain:
It have been three weeks. Instead of gaining weight, i had reduced weight by 0.5kg.
My hubby told me It is okay as He can see that me become slimmer a bit. so maybe Iare losing weight on myself but gain weight on the baby. Hopefully so lor. Had to wait for one more week for my gynae visit.This week already week 32. Another 5-8 weeks more. So anxious and excited.

missbluey, have you booked the hospital for delivery? i am going to see gynae next thu at 32 wks. my gynae told me previously tat 2 wks interval will start from 32 wks, thus am quite surprised your next vist is still a month later.
re: disposable panties
during the last robinsons sale, i bought 2 boxes of sorelle not-disposable-type and thus washable panties at 1-for-1 at $12.90. total 10 pieces. considering each piece is only $1.20, i dun mind wearing once and throw.

Re: pre-natal massage
Doobom/Sberri, i've been doing PN massage regularly in my 3rd trim - it eases wind and water retention, and helps a lot in blood circulation and muscle relaxation. Super good for aches and cramps. Helps to tone also - lest i get lotsa irregular fats. For the 60min session, you'll lie on your left for half the session on an elevated bed, propped by many little pillows for comfort. Then you're asked to switch to your right. Never on your back flat - so not to worry - it's super comfortable!! You can massage your outer breasts if you're comfortable with that ( but not the nipples area - may cause contractions!)
Re: Nursing pillow
Tiger baby, yes the pre-owned 'My brestfriend' is fine since the covers are removable and washable. My buddies have told me to bring it along to the hospital to help BF [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Re: Stretch marks
Bluberri, dunno leh - the book and my gynae says it's genetic. i doubt so - but i find my instructor's explanations VERY convincing and scientific lor. SO long as don't over stretch suddenly, won't have sudden tear. Besides sudden increase in weight gain, i'm hoping my baby don't kick me too hard and burst my tissues too.....kekeke.
FRIENDS, i have gained same inches and 2 more kgs than you [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] So far i have no stretch marks yet *cross fingers*. I have started with the Mustela Double action Stretchmarks cream since Mth 2. And unfortunately realised i'm allergic to the cream - and my gynae quite against using Stretchmarks cream - so i stopped using since. Then my pre-natal instructor told me 'not to gain weight rapidly within a week', so i tried to watch that - and so far so good. I only used Aloe Vera gel on specific spots if i have itchiness occasionally.
