peanut

if you just want diaper shell, any will be fine but if you are using cloth diapering system with inserts, just remember that you need to buy what is compatible with the diaper shell



re: nappy liner

pigeon not bad...



re: painful back/pelvis pain

can try cat pose stretch or charles pose. alternative, can do some stretching...

 


Hi all mummies - Finally have time to log in as busy these few days with closing.. Wow, seems like some of us might be popping anytime from now.. So, we must always be prepared.. Wonder who will be the 1st? Haha..



Yest, I was also panicky as my panty was wet out of the blue & it does not seem like urine.. So, I thought water bad burst & was waiting for other signals like contractions or bloody discharge but lucky, don't have.. Think it's just some normal don't know what discharge.. So, will leave it till next week to gynae on Tues..



Btw, I was thinking, shall we set up a playgroup to gather all the mummies & babies here.. We can like organise trips regularly like those playgroups where the babies can interact & learn to share & mingle.. Perhaps, can also rotate to host at different mommy houses.. We can share toys, baby gyms, books etc or even recipes.. Pot Luck.. Haha.. Can organise like every 3 months.. And finally, we can throw a big bash to rent a toys warehouse for the kids to play for their 1 year old birthday.. Haha.. Anyway, just a thought.. Can mummies keen to start this playgroup?

 
Hi Ladies,



Anyone been to the motherhood fair yet? I just went during lunch time... quite a big scale one... u gals should go if u still got things to buy...

 
hello mummies..



i think i possibly be one of the earilest one to pop? this morning went to gynae check. purposely to check on my painful legs. after i told gynae that i having BH at almost every 15 mins. he got a shock.. check that i am already 1.5 cm dilated. oh gosh! and i am only at 35 weeks. now I am on MC till next appt and on medication to stop the contractions.

 
Hi Aisha - Just 1 patch not like a lot.. At least, my panty is not soaking wet but a little wet? Any call of concern? I'm only in Wk33. Don't think BB will pop so early, right? usually.. Hee

 
keer13: maybe it is discharge?...i get a lot of discharge (yellowish colour) recently and have to use panty liner...



playgroup: sounds like a good idea...after we pop, can consider this...

 
Rabbit,

oh dear! dun move about too much and rest well. looks like your BH were actually contractions?

 
ica, according to my gynae, yes.. but no pain leh.. thank god that my friend ask me to keep track of the BH. so last 2 days i was keeping track. and thank god that my gynae force me to see him early because of my leg pains while walking, he scare that my blood veins are being pressed which might cause blood flow problem. after checking is more on the pressure on pelvic area that causes the pain and discomfort. Then V area also pain while walking, because bb head very low liao.



Jellypurin, another 4 more days to week 36. according to gynae, he feels more safe for the baby to come out at week 36. shouldnt be a problem by then. now on medication to reduce to contractions.

 
just back fr massage [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] feeling gd - managed to fall asleep and get some shuteye too. so tired lately



Rabbit

better get more rest, my sis in law just gave birth at 36wks plus 3 days. her baby was ok, although term technically premature. but i tink best to keep baby longer to full term beta



keer13

i have discharge too. no smell but just off white color. maybe body's way of saying preparing for big day? my gynae never say anything so i leave it be lah for time being

 
Baby expo

i might give that a miss bec its too far for me; prob wait for Taka Baby Fair tht's comin up soon then waddle my way tere to check it out! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
yah, baby wt is gd then its better - my sis in law's baby came out at 2.95kg so her natural delivery was breeze in e end - blessin in disguise [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
keer13>> oh ic, bcoz my fren had her waterbag burst arnd 3pm n she only went to hospital at 9pm n gynae scolded her bcoz they said after ur bag burst u hv to go asap if not baby will suffocate... i think all mummies hv those liquid deposit la juz wear panty liners can already...

 
rabbit: Hope your doc got remind u to stop exercise. My doc was asking me not to stop exercise until after the CTG..she finally asked me to stop..even yoga.



btw hor.. have anyone of you wondered how our gynae can poke two fingers in and then tell us how dilated we are? I keep wondering how they did it.. inside is like a maze with fold of skin and how they can tell to an accuracy of like 0.5 cm! hee

 
Hi ladies, just back from expo bb fair. I think i saw Mrs Long. Wonder issit u at the toilet?? I dont dare to anyhow acknowledge. Hahah...



Mummies who are deciding to use Sweetest Moment for the full mth celebration can consider going donw to sign up. They ve a promo of buy 10boxes free 1 box. And they have a Huggies starter kit selling at $14.90 with an additional 10% or $10 voucher off when u order the boxes of cakes. (I got abit mix up with all the promo) Heehee..



And Mummies who wanted to buy diapers can take a look too. For Nepia, they selling $14 per pack instead of $15 when we order online + free delivery. On top of that, if you din opt for the free delivery, every packet will free 2 pcs.

 
atomickitten, yaya.. i actually haven been really exercising. i suspect is more on the everyday mrt rides, not everytime got seats and have to stand and rushing to work everyday, so always try to speed up. then last week my gynae asked me to walk more. on that day itself i walked to and fro my mil house. i think got 30 mins walk in total lor. then after that, the pains start coming in liao. so now gynae say no more walking.



about VE check, quite uncomfortable leh, not pain though. i also dunno how gynae check it. he keep talking to me, i think is to redirect attention.



ladies, if you feel you getting BH more often, probably good to note it down, so that you know what is the interval like. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
babycoco

i thought there is one in march and one sometime july/august but anyway if gave birth alrdy it shld be close enough for us to get any last min items [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] shld we need it

 
kepsis: The octopus is selling at $22.90 at the BP. $29 also quite cheap lei.



Rabbit: Woah.. better be careful. For me, I was lucky I am not dilated yet though having contraction.

 
Hi mummies, yest I went to the fair, bought some baby clothes, nursing bras and playmat. The fair is better than the previous ones definitely.



Today I feel some pulling effects. That should be BH, I guess?



Minmin, for cots, u can check out the company palmax near the stage. I bought mine from them earlier and they're having even better discount at the fair. They r selling shears brand cots

 
Hi



Anyone remember what is the price of the braun thermometer sold at the fair? i forgot..



Unity selling 131.90 i think. dunno which cheaper..

 
It seemed walking a long distance is a big challenge for me.



Easily tired and i often get BH. Stomach sooo tight.

Tried relaxing by breathing in and out slowly in a longer pace..

So happy for my friend who gave birth today, her bb weighs 3.9kg at birth!!! when i saw the pics, he looked really chubby and cute! time passes so fast, we used to chat abt baby updates and stuffs and now she has delivered, i am getting very panicky cos it will be my turn soon.



tmr i am going for my shoot with allison, wanted to bring pre-pregnancy jeans but i was shocked that my thunderous thighs cannot fit into them at all! even the pants i bought 2 mths ago, i cant wear now too. totally no clothes to bring at all loh.

 
Jelly >> Am thinking of getting a sleep bag from Carter. Saw one sometime ago. Wotz the website to go n c wot to buy?

Sweetkiss>> Same same! Tried to wear my maternity jeans tat I could still fit in 2 mths ago n thunder thights cannot go in! So scary yea...Think my butt's gone bigger too..oh dear..

 
Mummies,



anyone of you have itchy skin or rashes during last trimister?



Im suffering from itchness from my bottom , will it heal after delivery?

 
dun scratch ah.. can cause stretch marks... its normal cause skin is expanding. but if it gets very serious, go visit gynae for medication

 
sweetkiss + Pris: same same! Many of my maternity bottoms i bought first few months of pregnancy.. all cant wear now! I think... should be normal lah right?!?!? (convincing myself)

 
wah.. seems liek expo having good deals...



haiz.. am down with flu and cough and my migrant came visit me today... haiz.. can;t go down to expo liao...

 
These few mornings when tossing in bed, I feel like my bones "crack" in my bottom pelvic area. Like you stretch your back then your bones "crack' kind of feeling. Anybody experience this too?

 

Rabbit: Yup, me on Ventolin pills now.



Sweetkiss: Woah.. her BB quite big lei.. she did it naturally or by C-sec?
