lucky my gynea explain the curry logic to my hubby... else dont think got chance to eat when he is around... always have to take it during lunch at work with colleagues... hahaha

 


minmin,



However the child comes into this world, as long as he/she is safely delivered [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



A bit worried though, last check revealed that the cord is round my BB's neck. 2 wks back was 2 rounds, last week show 1 round.



Anyway, next checkup on Thursday. Will ask Gynae again. She did mention to me b4 that she had delivered a BB with 5 rounds ard his neck safely by natural delivery. Gotta trust her and God.

 
phy: yup trust your gynea !



I trusted my gynea as she only deliver babies and do not do any abortions... as she keep saying she can't bear to kill a little life

 
minmin thanks for sharing. that was close! but you and baby are safe now [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
Actually can I ask y cant nurse or gynae do a scan before we go for delivery.. if the scan can show tat the umbilical cord is ard the neck..



then no need to induce straight away can go for epi. and c-section ... no need waste time and get so kan cheong...

 
phy the baby with the cord wound 5x round the neck, was that discovered during birthing or way before the birth? sounds scary but have no fear when going for delivery, ok? God bless

 
yvonne

i think for min's case, i maybe wrg ... while the bb is traveling down the birth canal as the contractions lead him, he is turning so sometimes, the cord goes around his neck. so maybe evn do scan, also cannot tell in a sense...

 
phy,

wah 5 rounds! aiyo forgot to ask my gynae to check for me yesterday. Next visit would be on next monday.

 
Jellypurin



might be one of the reason... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

yap by doing a scan can only see wat happen before pushing... while pushing no one can predict anything...



Anyway are u going to try the curry method???



Min Min



congrat once again.. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] everything is fine now tat is most important...

 
hmmm having curry too many times a week also bored hahaaha... but i try to have it like once a week before i deliver... like curry chicken, curry veg, curry fish head (just had over weekend) this weekend maybe have curry chicken...

 
Xbeanniex



Dont take so many curry.. heaty.. if u wan to eat got to cool down ur body too...



Talking abt curry i remember tat there was a FM company sending a book title naming ur bb christian name... I read thru under alpha C . I saw a christian name call curry... I was ??? hahaha.. I think my boy will hate me forever if i going to name him tat...

cos his surname in dialet is guay... (sound chicken in hokkien) curry guay... OMG!!!

 
Ladies, fret not. Gynae says it also depends on the length of cord.



Like what Jelly says, could be the turning of bb that causes the cord to coil around during delivery.



I've done some research. If cord is loosely ard the neck, wat gynae can do is to uncoil it when bb's head is just right out, if a bit tight then will cut the cord once the BB's head is out then quickly deliver the BB.



ICA, I didn't ask my gynae abt that though. This thurs will check status of cord again.



Yvonne,

That's a heartrate monitor to monitor BB throughout delivery so need not worry too much.



Sun_tan,

Did I get u worried? Sorry har...

 
Yvonne: hahaha... my mum every weekend since 2 weeks ago ask me to drink coconut juice... my IL there ah ... no movement... wahahaha... probably my HB say is GAL... but what others say we nvr tell IL so bo chap! if really boy IL side dun think of carrying him so often... boy then treat me better lar... gal then bo chap me... then i bo chap them too...



indeed... giving our bb names got to be careful n sensitive...

 
Doc say BB not yet engage & i'm going wk37 tmr...



I'm asking my hubby to hold a meeting with my BB at night (BB seems to be active n play with hubby when i slp). Ask my hubby tell him what date to what date is wat horoscope & what day is today so BB can plan himself. Haha.. very bored.

 
phy,

no lah, cos previously one of the mummies also mentioned about cord ard bb's neck. So that time i reminded myself to ask gynae to scan for me to see if the cord is ard my boy's neck or not. Then completely forgot abt it till its mentioned in today's post again.



Rgd curry,

Any curry will do? Haha will try it if desparate enough.

 
ceres,

Its the same of me. I having been telling my boy that we have yet to perform the "shift into new house ceremony" yet. Ask him to hold on until then. Then after that, he can come out as and when he is ready..lol..my hubby tot i have gone crazy.

 
jaclyn and ica: good luck and take care! share your birth stories when you are back!



minmin: congrats! Glad everything went well and Baby is fine!

 
Sun_tan,

Maybe that was me? Haha, coz I mentioned here b4 too. Anyway, besides curry, like what jelly said, got 2 other methods :p

 
Hey mummies,

Quick question.. I am cooking the papaya soup to boost my milk supply. Do I eat the papaya or just drink the soup only?

 
Minmin, congrats. Glad to hear all went well.



I'd read somewhere, if bb only drinking foremilk, the stool colour is green. Is it?

 
My mom suddenly bring out the wine bottles she collected and say she going to make wine for my maternity... Maternity drink wine???



MinMin: i heard soup better cuz hot. If eat fruits cold not that gd i think.



Bee: I heard can but must make sure wound is healed. Not just outside but inside also. My colleagues who do c-sect dun massage they scared.

 
minmim

make sure u use green papaya to make the soup leh and yes, drink the soup. u must drink over a period as well so it's not instant [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
phy,

Haa maybe. But hubby is totally off the idea of sex. He thinks its not right to do it while bb inside..hahah. Whats HTH?



Happybee,

Can, but must wait for a longer period before doing. Best to check with your massage lady.

 
hahaha suntan, doubt she will keep her promise too, only left 3 weeks!!



Make sure she cooks confinement food for you! Btw if we are breastfeeding bb, then cannot take those ginger food/ rice wine right (if baby got jaundice), then we just eat normal food will do right? fish vege etc.

 
Shann Yheng,

Shouldnt rely on her. Anyway i did employ CL so no issue. As for jaundice, i tot only no ginger? Rice wine should be all right?

 
I guess must make sure the alcohol evaporates first. Everything in moderation even ginger also can eat but don't overdo it lor.

Eliss,

You went to her studio or she came to your place? Grace was saying her boy also wide awake when taking the shoot.

 
suntan> plus sitting there as a couch potato.. watchin dvd! hahaha..



eliss> how was the shoot? muz make sure bb is slpg? wat's the best time for the shoot? bb shd b how many wks old?

actually im more keen on takin the shoot when bb's abt 6mths old.. cuz i scat i cant handle bb @ the shoot leh...

 
babycoco> hahah... last time before preggers i was dancin.. like at least 3times a wk.

hence i was able to eat all the junk.

n last time dun haf to really tink wat goes into my body... until bb comes along.

i try to limit my junk food intake.. for his sake =)



but comin to the end of this pregnancy... im pickin up my junkie foodies again.. hee...

chips n all.. givin myself a v good excuse.. cuz my mom's gonna watch me like a hawk durin confinement! arggh!!!



how's bb amelie? so pretty~~

mixed heritage bbs haf the best of all features! =)

 
hahahaa thanks gals, make me feel less guilty! haha! and i also had ramen last week, but tried not to drink too much of the soup too.. just now never finished my instant noodles, hubby helped haha! took cheese biscuits instead. Lazy to dabao and lazy to cook lol!



Suntan, same! In my kitchen, one of the cabinet is full of taiwan instant noodles! Spicy beef. hey are u the one who is already 4cm dilated?

 
DQ,

Allison did say its best that bb is asleep while doing the shoot so that she can position him/her easily.

 
I asked Allison to come to our house instead. Better that BB is sleeping as Allison has some difficult pose if BB is awake...



DQ -must be within 2 weeks... best to time after last feed...

 

Btw, you mommies going to do massage for your bb? What "lotion" did you use? Also when should we start to do the massage ie how old should the bb be?
