Yup me too, love to eat esp fried food nowadays... (nuggets, kfc, chic cutlet) the only thing is i am starting to feel tired easily again. usually when i reach home after work, i will laze ard, watch tv before i go for a bath, but now, without realizing i will doze off for 1-2 hrs till hubby has to wake me up! so now must make it a point to bathe right after i reach home! but after that, i cant sleep and end up awake till 1-2am, which explains why i am so tired at work everyday.
like now.. counting down 2.5hrs to lunch, 7.5hrs till i knock off. zzzz

Braxton Hicks - my prenatal class's physio facilitator was telling us, when you have Braxton Hicks, it will go away if you are doing something else. For eg, if you got Braxton Hicks when you are sitting, try standing up and the false contractions should go away. If the pain does not go away, it could really be real contractions...
junie - maybe you can try putting a small stool in your shower area?

mrslong just check their website. seems like you can use napisan for baby garments, including nappies. see link. not sure whether it's this product? Vanish NapiSan BabyCare?

wow, normally i just lift my legs up one at a time and do a quick scrub when i bathe. but i can't sit on the small stool to wash my underwear anymore. my tummy gets in the way and i feel very uncomfortable leh.
so normally i just do a quick rinse and soak them. when MIL not watching, i'll throw it into the washing machine with my other clothes.
My MIL is very particular abt washing undies in the machine lor... even if the whole load is just solely my clothes. To her, even if hubby's clothes accidentally got washed with mine, hubby can't wear them anymore. crazy rite? she thinks is unlucky coz women are "dirty". but we just dun care... and she told me, cannot hang my clothes at the side of the bamboo pole where my FIL will walk under, coz very suay. sometimes feel like telling her, doesn't my FIL or hubby come out from a woman's privates? duh..

Sweetkiss >> Your MIL very traditional le. Now, I wash my panties at the sink cuz can no longer squat down.
Luckily, my MIL is ok with me washing my clothes & undergarments with her son's. Though i'm not staying with my ILs, my MIL comes over our plc once a week to help us do hsewk & laundry.

Sweetkiss i just throw mine into the washer but then there are only me and hubby in the house. last time my mom also won't allow me to use the washer but as she gets older, she's more easy going. if i go back to KL, back to my ILs place, i will have to wash my undies myself. some old folks are very particular one la
suntan: my mum since young also trained me to do that myself le.. so at anywhere also no different de... but i can understand sweetkiss is becos at my ILs place the family is like that de... but who cares ... at my own new flat i do whatever i like ... follow my house rules ...
mrslong: ur MIL so gd to help u with housework!
ya she is so traditional until i cannot tolerate... to her thicker clothes require more sunlight so have to put at the far end of the bamboo pole to get max sun..
but to me, heavier clothes should be at the side nearest to our strength so easier rite?
When I did it my way, she actually re-arranged everything in my face and mumbled that I dunno how to do laundry!
In the end i had such a hard time carrying out the bamboo pole lor.. so heavy.
I was so upset I complained to hubby & cried. hahaha

suntan: my MIL 6mths ago also say very loud will cook special for me to eat... but hor think my own family is the one never say cook special meals for me end up the ones preparing the most special food for me ... hahaha i dont like salmon becos of got fishy smell, my dad buys another fish (dun know what fish) very sweet n smooth flesh... no fishy smell ... n cost like $2.50 for a palm size fish... 0.o
suntan>> ya, my MIL comes to our plc every Tues to help me & my HB with the hsework & cook for our meals. Very nice of her lor.
She used to cook for us abt 4 days of different meals, put in fridge in containers, we just come bk from work & microwave hot. But now I tell her dun cook so many days, cuz food put in fridge after 1 day also not healthy. And my mum said, preggie woman eat "overnight cooked food" will hv a lot of "wind".
Anyway, my MIL ia retired and is those "must-do-something" type, hehee. Of cuz, my HB pays her an additional mthly allowance.

I got to say my MIL treats me well lah...cuz my HB is also the only son & child [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] So 1st grandson for the family.
In fact, all the good stuff are prepared by my MIL for me to eat/drink Cuz i only go bk to my mom's plc once in a mth or so only.

If she wants to rearrange the bamboo in such a way, then maybe she shud be the one to carry it back in.
For those that like otah, can check out this BP thread.. its her last day of her BP so do order if u all like otah! But don't eat too much cos otah have alot of preservatives de! My family likes this alot! http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/581296/3875943.html?1272248723

Sweetkiss thicker clothes at end of pole - not afraid that the pole will snap? so hard to bring it in - poor girl. can tell your MIL that you dunno how to do, so let her do it? hahaha...no la, then she'll think that you're rude
yesterday i managed to cut my toe nails. had to sit on a chair, cross my leg like some ah pek, and put the waste bin below my legs. but then some of the nail clippings went flying off, dunno where and landed somewhere on the floor. but i couldn't see where they landed - vision getting poorer + floor tiles are very light beige. hahaha

Pris - re diaper shells, if you are not fussy over the designs, u can acutally pick them up v cheaply from those heartland baby shops. I paid abt $4 each. Designs are the cutsey baby types with pictures of little ducks and animals type.
