babycoco: I really think you all who opt for C-sec are very brave.. be it with epi or GA, i just can't bring myself thru the idea of being cut open. Haha!!
cheese: Ya.. that's is what i thought so too abt contractions.. but BH for 1hr plus in the morning at regular interval also doesn't sound like BH to me. That's why rather confuse. I also dun wanna go back to labour ward again till I am more sure. So in dilema too.

xbeanniex -- i will stand up and walk walk a bit, dream some warm water.. or sometimes, i will lie down and give her some space to move.. relax and take deep breaths.. sometimes they are moving into place, so will give them some space to adjust..
it jus happened to me earlier, i jus walked arnd the room...

xbeanniex, happened to me last week. i was so worried i thought of going to see gynae. but i found that when i stood up or walked, it doesn't hurt maybe you can try to do that?
ann, no lah, not brave. i'm more scared of natural birth. but gynae did say bb on the big side, might not be a bad idea to do c-sect.

Serene: Haha!! U want contraction.. for me, i just hope going into labour is more clear cut.. like waterbag just break lo. No need to think or speculate. Haha!!
babycoco: Now I also dunno how big is BB or did I dilate further than 3cm since on Monday, I am 3cm dilated... my gynae appt is tomorrow.. dunno can last till tomorrow or not. Hubby was saying the gynae package we took doesn't seem enticing now cos we keep going to hospital and then had to shift the gynae appts.

u can ask ur dr if she can just drug u w full dose then u wldn't feel a thing when she operates. also, if u r really afraid of the sounds of the instruments, chk w her if you can hv some music on...

my gynae said if got mucus tinged with blood, no need to go hospital yet. only if combined with contractions that are 5mins apart, then go. so you better call up your gynae and check
saw gynae today. me at 36wks, baby's at 38-39wks, weighing 3.3kg. she did VE for me - not dilated but cervix is soft oredi. if i deliver today, baby was in good position - engaged with her back facing the front. but then, baby can still change position to face the front, which i hope not. 1 more week to go - can't wait!
gynae touched my tummy and said i was having contractions. i said "huh? i thot they were BH?" then gynae said, ya, practice contractions. real contractions will be more intense and painful. she said the more BH i have, the better for labour. okie
oh, my strep B results came back - negative but tested positive for yeast infection instead. so gynae inserted Canestan. no further treatment required and i also din ask
gynae gave me the hospital admission letter and told me about labour, what to expect, when to go to labour ward, etc

babycoco: Yup my surgery scheduled at 730am so that my gynae can be back at her clinic by 9am. Oh you still have to see your gynae for ultra-sound ah. Btw hor.. I told my gynae to insert the catheter only when I'm at the OT after epi is administered so no pain.. she asked me to remind the nurses on the day itself. U might like to consider that as well. Also I was told to bring abdominal binder if i have my own and also the cord banking kit into the OT.
btw blood sugar can be triggered by stress level leh. So stay calm k..we are very near le! I stop during my finger prick le..since doc never say anything. Yesterday I had cakes, cookies and soft drinks!!but in moderation of coz..
Serene : you're so funny.. be patient be patient.. your doc not back yet remember? hehee... I also wonder who and how my bb with look like! My hubby and I have pretty contrasting features lor.. small eyes, dark skin, big nose, curly hair VS big eyes, fair skin, normal nose and straight hair! But we both have straight teeths w/o braces. My gut feeling is my bb gal is gonna look that her daddy leh...
Ann: You're really like a timed-bomb ticking away! So exciting!
ica: thanx!! wow your bb quite big hor.. I at 37 wks +++ but my bb only 2.7kg.. I havent stopped eating beef and drinking milk for few weeks liao!
jelly : Yes..I told my gynae yesterday that I dun want to feel the thread pulling when she's sewing me up! That was what I was told by some friends lor.. make my hair stand!

AK,
ya hor...just now i was looking into my bag and realised i forgot to show gynae my blood glucose reading and she also didn't ask me. maybe becos we're almost there
ya lor, my big baby....i prefer your baby's weight - just nice. but for the past 1 wk, i'm very happy with her weight gain - only 100g, whereas i gained 300g. so hoping from now on, all weight gain comes to me, if there's any
i also heard that milk makes baby big coz i have a fren (very tall and big) and his mom told me she drank a lot of milk when carrying him. so now wondering whether it was the Anmum - i took it 2x a day and on top of that, i took calcium pills. i only stopped taking the milk a month back coz i was having too much gas

cheese: i already started to handover last week to the temp...teach him what to do, how to do, etc...then today got new things, then boss forward to me...aiyoh...should just forward to the temp (or at least both of us)...by forwarding to me only, as if implying that i should settle it before i go off like that...feeling so sian lor when i got that email...
the temp even tried to get my HP no...he said just in case...i told him a big NO...i am supposed to be on ML...if u r not sure, then check directly with boss...this type of temp ah!?

cheese: the things boss sent me this morning is not something very major...but still...the fact that she forwarded to me as if the temp is not around like that and as if expecting me to settle it...anyway, dun care liao...whatever that needs to be handed over already done...just want to prepare myself and relax for the Day!
atomic kitten, good idea to get gynae to put in catheter after we are administered epi. i'll ask her when i see her Saturday morning. i bought the binder from clinic, so expensive $50+. your gynae doesn't sell?
ica, gynae still wants me to test my blood. oh, btw, did your gynae ask you to bring the glucometer to the hospital when you're giving birth? my gynae asked me to bring mine, she said if hospital check using their glucometer, we'll get charged, so better bring ours, since it's free.

babycoco,
my gynae din tell me to bring the glucometer. okie, thanks! one more thing to dump into the hospital bag.
my gynae said i've done my blood test, so not need. she just asked the nurse to make a photocopy. think she meant the one we did for the NT test? but the nurse couldn't find it in my file - so weird

babycoco: My doc never mentioned anything abt my blood sugar when I proudly present my "report book" to her. Told her my results very good and she was pleased. So I think i can stop finger prick le la. She also never ask me to bring to hosp. But if your doc remind u, you better bring leh. When I was admitted the last time round and the nurses tested for me coz I never bring my glucometer.. it was very expensive leh!!
As for the binder hor.. my fren passed hers to me and I showed gynae..she said its too big for me.. coz its Large... then she said she will try if too big then juz buy from hosp after the op.
xbeanniex: I ve been drinking meiji fresh milk [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] So far so good for me blood sugar. But hor... remember dun drink the yummy meiji choc milk k.. coz it causes my blood sugar to shoot up. If u have craving drink more now.. think during confinement dunno can drink cold fresh milk or not. I ve this impression anything cold is forbidden.. including fresh milk, fruits etc etc

Serene: Won't la.. if waterbag burst, the more taxi uncle would drive you. My mum told me if hubby cannot make it to drive me to hospital, then call taxi company and tell them u in labour, they will give you priority queue one. Haha!!
ica: But my contractions real funny. So wanna be more sure before i head for hospital. Like now, I take a nap and woke up, I dun have contraction le. That shouldn't be the case if it is real contraction and I slept like a pig lo when I nap.
AK: Ya lo.. ticking human time bomb.. and a confuse one too. I always thought giving birth is just very straight forward.. never know contractions can be so confusing too.

hahaha! your boy is adorable! my ex-colleague's daughter once kept asking when was her little sister going to come out and the next day, she popped! what a coincidence. oh, over the weekend, met up with my cousin and she asked her daughter to put her hands on my tummy and asked her "boy or girl". her daughter said "girl" - amazing!
Ann
according to Mrs Wong, if real contractions, won't be able to sleep. so maybe your body is practising really hard to get you ready
