Hi mamyvelle I am at parkway east hospital now too. Came in at 5 plus and Deliver ard 2pm. What time did u reach hospital? I saw two ladies, one of them i heard under dr Heng came in with waterbag burst.
I had delivered naturally with a jab on the thigh which I really regret. Keep vomiting non stop for 6 hrs after deliver. Nurse say maybe due to the jab or homones changes. I gave in to the jab after the nurses persuasion so anyone determined to go full natural must be firm.
I like to say kudos to dr Heng! She is good and experienced.

Congrats mamyvelle n tearybear!
Today got a few mummies pop yeah!
White_lady, dun worry abt e quality of breastmilk.. I read that our body very smart.. They make good quality milk no matter what e mum eats.. If mum din eat well, just e mum suffers, not bb... I also din eat Ginger n those wine stuff, coz scare my gal's jaundice comes back n haunts us.. If yr wound has recovered, u can also eat eggs n chicken... I started eating chicken today.. My 12th day.. Hehe..

Just my 2cents worth of thoughts to those mummies who haven't popped..
Looking at my skinny baby who was born at 37w6d, she is super boney.. No meat in her arms n legs.. After 5days of phototherapy, she slimmed down even more.. Now some of e fats from her cheeks r gone.. Makes me heartpain.. So I think it will be good that bb stays in mummies tummy as long as possible to gain more fats n let their liver mature more so that jaundice is not so high..

Mamyvelle I delivered on 6 Aug, discharging on sun morning.
The nurses gave three choices for labour pain, laughing gas, the jab on thigh as MVH as explained as pethidine and lastly epidural. The nurses keep asking what's my preferred choice so I said the jab. Then when I dilated 3cm, the nurse pursued me to take jab cos still hav a few hrs to go, meanwhile can sleep. Who knows dr Heng came when I dilated 5cm and did episiotomy on me and I delivered.

White lady,
so u pop oledi lah. I thought I remember wrongly cos we r not suppose to go out of hse during confinement to avoid wind blow according to tradition. So u sneak out with baby go shopping oh. =)
BF: even BF oso still can eat those "bu" food. Water retention will go off eventually, no worry. From wat I know, nothing so call bad BM or poor quality BM. BM is built by mummy body to meet the requirement if our little 1 n will adjust automatically base on their need. But of course nothing bad or wrong or nothing to guilty if u finally hav to giv up BF no matter wat is the reason behind. U must always firm tat wat u did is for the best of your little 1. The only thing is u need to know once u stop BF, u will no longer able to revert back to BF cos your body will stop produce BM for tis new born. As long as u r firm n make up your mind, go for it n dun let it trouble u. U need gd rest.

MVH, my bb also premature, though he was 3kg. yours considered only 1 day premature leh. 38 wk then full term?
white lady, MVH, i did not take ginger and those confinement food during my 1st 14 days too cause bb had high jaundice. after that, i started taking cause CL said my body need to bu3. anyway, it is OK DE, taking fish, soup etc etc, balance diet is good enough for the breastmilk production for bb. NO WORRY ok?
with confinment food, the bm no guarantee better quality cause i feel that those food are heaty, then bb also heaty. with plain food, my ah boy was better bah. sleep well drink well not so cranky (my be I xin1 li3 zuo4 yong4).
if you have milk, dun give up.
MVH, heart pain to see bb giu1 zwee after the phototherapy hor. nevermind, need to feed bb more after that . the wt can come back de.
water retention:
i heard the malay massage can help to remove water retention. so white lady, u have engaged any massage lady?
I have no water retention (or not much ) so i did not engage this time. last time i did, not much impact on my body cause all of them are just FATs, not water. sigh.
u may wan to try. and pls cut down on the salts intake. no salt better.

Nature Lover: Call your gynae to tell her u got bleeding... is it bright red blood? She may ask u to go down to hospital to check. If accompanied by downward pressure or contractions, it probably means its your turn to pop!
Congrats to all mummies who pop these few days!
