Re: Sleep position
I know that it is good to sleep on our left side... but the problem is my #1 is sleep in the same room with us (her bed join to our bed at right side). She always 'request' me to 'see' her b4 she get to sleep... end up my sleep position always be the right side on my back instead
...
Now I felt like go back to the 1st trimester symptoms le... wake up at night to pee, feel very tired & sleepy everyday... haiz...

ahnah, as long as the blood is not alot, there shd be no worry. When I'm heaty I had strains of blood from nose too, but its okie after drinking some home brew barley. I was told China Barley we can drink, but not the ang moh type. My MIL used to add 2 tbs of green beans to abt 3/4 cups of barley, it taste great! Oh, don't use white sugar to add to barley drink, use rock sugar.
Ednique,
at least we can have a good excuse to have cake... yummy =D oh ya, did you sleep on 2 layers of pillows? it can help you breath properly.
Re: Sleep position
I also have problem on my sleeping position. Everytime I woke up with back pain. Sometimes when I sleep on side way, I used the cushion to support my back. It do help to relieve my pain. But my baby will kick me when I sleep on side way *faint* This morning she gave 2 kicks hardly when I was half awake on my left side.

ducklingeshop, i also have the same problem.. lol.. my gal sleeps on the mattress at my right. Insist that I looked at her before she sleeps.. so most of the time i sleep on my right or back. I do wake up in the wee hours and cant sleep after that.. tired but I try to sleep in early then..
anyway, anyone cooks the longan red date drink at home now? my CL asks me to do so during 3rd trimester.. dunno why though.. so i try to cook 1 small pot every sunday..

cheekrene--> ya recently i use 2 pillows to elevate my head. then i feel better. do u put a pillow/cushion under ur tummy also when u sleep sideways? i tried that and i felt better the next day. but yes, sleeping on my side makes my baby 'active' and keep kicking hehe.. he will 'wake' me up at 6 plus, time for work! hehe
Ednique,
I don't put anything on my tummy. My girl hate it and she will struggle herself in position. Normally I folded my qulit comforter higher to support it. At least I felt comfortable. Same here, she also do make some movements as she know it's time for me to go work too... haha...

I have done a quick research on longan red date drink...
Benefits of longan:
1. Longan fruit stimulates the proper functioning of the heart and spleen and improves blood flow in the body.
2. It can be used as an anti-depressant as it has a soothing effect on the nervous system.
3. A decoction of the dried flesh of longan fruit is used as a tonic to cure insomnia
4. The kernel of the seeds has certain beneficial ingredients like saponin, tannin and fat which help in constricting the flow of blood in case of an injury.
Other website:
- Dried longan helps blood circulation and is good for ladies who feel cold during their menstrual cycles.
- Red dates is good for an easily irritable stomach
The effect: dried longan calm the nerves, the blood tonic, to be good for the spleen, the red date restores vital energy calms the nerves, all is very good and good for breast growth.
The last sentence about breast growth... dunno how true... lol..
Maybe those mummies who have insommia lately can try and see if it helps to make us sleep better.

ednique,
Ya lor. I am small size but my colleagues complained that I always steal their food in office because I really eat non-stop. Some even tempted me with food >.< I think my baby girl is going to be a greedy one... hehe
ah_beee,
I think I have not added you in FB. Don't know which one is you. Maybe you can look for me.
Re: Belly
I agreed with the shape. My colleague who is having boy, has very pointed belly. When I looked at mine, yup, I am having girl so tummy is round.

Ok, So we cfm Secret Recipe! Hooray! I see ur FB pic and u come into the restaurant then can tell le. A table of preg women. Small gp but still can tell. I'll be bringing my son to join. Hope u all ok.
My gynae say my belly size still within limit. Haha... Luckily!
i jus log in to FB and saw ur comments. Dun be too stress at work. For me, last mth i'm so stress with #1 and work, i also cry myself to sleep for a few nights. But i feel so bad for my bb. I jus feel i'm "alone" and feel no one understand me. In the end, i talk to my hubby crying and also frens. I'm feeling a lot better aft that. I tink preg need a lot of moral support.

purelyz,
it's ok. at least your boy can bring us joy to mummies... hehe!
ah_beee,
I understand how you feel. It's always happen to pregnant women and I felt that we really need more moral support. We also need to find some ways to distract ourselves than worrying too much. My husband is really scared to provoke me as I am really very sensitive than last time.

i also think this myth is pretty accurate.
mine is very rounded & i'm having a gal. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
btw, i've been meaning to ask but it kept slipping my mind. i'm very curious abt sth. especially those with rounded tummy, have u gals tried leaning backwards? i see my tummy fr round become pointed when i leaned backwards. initially i thought the pointed part is the bb's head or sth but its always at the same area lor so i dun think thats the bb's head since bb will shift abt right.
the pointed part also 'came up' when i lie flat on my back & strained my head up to see my tummy too. my hb & i are really curious abt this. anyone got any idea what i'm talking abt??
