huh? like that .. maybe the infections are very high for the two of you.
My gynae and also GP doctor told me to eat yogurt plain ones and yakult ace light. And no sweets for me. Only fisherman sweets for diabetic can take.
No need insert pills cause discharge are mild.
Only when after birth my 1st son , i got serious infection, discharge was greenish, look like taofu curd, than gynae gave me pill to insert.

its not advisable to use feminine wash and wear panty liners for too long. the feminine wash will change the PH level at our genital area and panty liner will cause heat and moist. try to ventilate more and avoid food like cheese, dairy products.
cranberries and plain yogurt is good. drink plenty of water too.

has any mummies experienced baby "moving down"? my family and friends were telling me that if the baby "moves down", it means you're about to pop anytime.
oh! and has anyone who's expecting a boy/girl have people telling you otherwise based on the shape of your tummy?
i've been told COUNTLESS TIMES that i look like i'm carrying a baby boy (when my gynae has told me that she's a girl) to the point that i keep asking my gynae to re-affirm my baby's gender. it's so upsetting to hear "oh looks like boy hor" when my husband has practically painted my house pink and when all the stuff i've bought are in shades of pink. grrrrrrrrrrrr

cherry.sue -- baby moving down also known as lightening is part of the process at the later stage of pregnancy. it may not mean that u are gg to pop but it means that ur bb is preparing for arrival.
as for the shape... pple say pointed is boy, round is girl.. but for me, its the opposite. got kopitiam aunties all guessing mine is a boy until i told them its a girl. dun bother about all these la.. our tummy shapes is based on how our body cater to the size of the growing baby.. most imptly, bb is healthy..

Yup, likewise for me 10 out of 10 strangers asked if it’s a boy.
Even my mum too and kept pestering me to re-confirm with my gynae.
When I attended my relative’s wedding dinner recently, all my other cousins and relatives were telling me is a boy due to my pointed tummy.
They said if I am carrying a girl, I would have swollen face and feet.
But I just brushed everyone off saying that all these are old wives’ tales and not accurate.

Even my stylist also said surprisingly short hair look gd on me.
But now preggie liao, face become round, like bloated....aiyo.

Hi Grace - I took in Wk 28-29, i think.. It was as a birthday gift to myself.. Need that to use as a excuse so hubby will compile to go take with me.. If not, he's that type that hates to take photo de.. Haha...
Hi Shann - Thanks for the guide for the play pen.. Yeah, I will ask hubby to try again.. Yo, you better start washing the baby clothes le cos rainy, these few days.. Better wash & get it off your chest.. I had washed those 0-3 months baby clothes, now, contemplating if I should just wash 3-6 months old de.. Hee..
Hi Fazzy - Yes, 8 is a liitle too little.. It's really tough to choose but will keep the $$ to spend on other baby items..
Hi Vernie - Yes, I think location is a great idea.. So, for those staying nearer each other, probably, can meet up more often or provide some support in case help is needed..
Can all mommies email me, if they intend to state down their location.. Thanks!

Need some advice here - That day my gynae mentioned that if I will to opt to give birth in Mt A, chances that I will end up last min C-section is 30-40%.. So, he suggested me to go TMC which has a higher % for natural birth.. He said that midwives in TMC are more pro natural delivery.. And Mt A is want fast fast delivery de so will opt for last min C-section.. Has anyone heard of this before? Do you all think I should be concern & change hospital?
munchies -- no prob for chemical hair dos.. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

I just clarified with my HR again and guess what. She said I am entitled to ML, but as my contract ends in 9 July, should my company not renew me, they will only compensate me for my ML from 24 June (the date I request to start my ML) till 9 July.
I dun think they can do that right?
Even if they terminate me, they still need to pay me for 2 months isn’t it?

Carol: thanks, I will.
Yes I have no motivation to work now. Yet I cannot afford to be jobless or get a lower paying job because I have my housing loan to pay.
Recently, I’m also getting very slack at work though my job requires us to be pro-active.
I have 2 very hardworking colleagues working on the same tasks as me so I believe by now my supervisor can already tell the diff between us.
At the same time I am also worried about getting a poor appraisal. Sigh…

ALL MUMMIES,
Just came back from my 37 week checkup today, BB'S WEIGHT is 3.4kg!!
Imagined BB put on 600grams in 1 week's time!! despite of me going on very very obedient & strict diet,lost weight on myself..everything all NO NO, only YES to Wholemeal bread ,BROWN RICE, HL MILK.
2 meals daily only..
so I asked DR why my BB put on weight so FAST & MUCH? his reply is your BB genes lol!!
DR gave me a jab at my bottom today to strengthen BB's lungs to get prepared for next week C Section.
DR asked me to fix C Section date next Mon 14/6 or Tue 15/6,coz he said MY BB is matured & big to come out liao
DR strongly advice me to C Section coz of the recent article in newspaper regarding the incident of Raffles Hospital 2days ago.
Me & HB were hesitating coz we wanted a NATURAL DELIVERY,so DR asked me to reply him by Sat if opt for C SECTION, really in a dilemma???

Yap... No motativation...

I think in my case, I can’t afford to take too many days of MC or leave because I think I already have a “bad record” in the company.. I’ve only taken 1 day of MC and 0.5 days of AL from Jan till now…
When I joined my current company in Jan this year, I told my immediate supervisor that I’m preggers (signed my appt letter late last year in Nov when I didn’t know I’m pregnant..only found out in Dec) and I think from then on, he may not have a good impression of me liao…so that’s why I don’t dare to take many MC or leave.
Work attitude wise, I don’t know whether is it because I’m preggers, that why I’m not given impt tasks to do…as compared to my previous job, I felt so “little” in my current role…so sometimes, when you can’t achieved great things (not becos you can’t but due to lack of opportunities), I will tend to lack that bit of motivation too…

Is this ur 1st pregnancy. if yes I suggest u go for c-section since gynae advice u...
cos by next wk bb weight might be ever heavier...
there might be a chance tat u cant deliver naturally by induce due to some reason and aft tat go for emgergancy c-section.. tat is the worst to worst case... (more cost)
if u already prepare for it then go ahead for naturally..

Sito -- i have previous deliveries with Dr Ang.. and to be honest, he will know what is best for u. and trust him.
i remember my bb was breeched when i delivered my #1, he told me that he got confidence to deliver bb naturally.. so we trusted him.. and true enuff.. without complications, bb was delivered smoothly.
That is why this time round, we leave it to Dr Ang to decide if we shud induce or not.. cause we trust him ma
for the RH case, the gynae had adviced her and also constantly asking her to go for c sect but the mommy insisted on natural.. then last min changed to c sect due to complications. sometimes, we have to trust the gynae's experience..
why not u try to speak to dr ang and ask him to decide what is the best for u and baby?

mrslong -- there are many sorts of patients arnd esp in singapore.. lol.. i remember when i had my still birth, my family blamed it on the gynae.. and i was like.. "huh??" and even ask me not to visit my gynae anymore.. but i find it bo liao..
i read the article, apparently RH is backing the gynae.. and i heard from some friends and my gynae that, its a SOP for gynae to let the patients know the risk involved and stuff like tat..
hai, its very sad case but i think also cannot point finger at anyone also.. sometimes its fated de.. thats why i always tell myself.. i jus want bb to be healthy..
