Wow so many meimei mummy here. I don't bother to put make up later my hb thought I siao. Hahaha
i heard from a friend who delivered in eastshore 3 years ago, they supply her with the hospital clothes during her stay there, but at $19 per day.. she didn't know until the day she check out.
my friend who gave birth at TMC 2 yrs ago told me they dun provide anything for mummy so mummy bring own clothing but they will provide for baby and u can even bring it home so no need to bring baby clothing. I'm not sure if it's still the same now.

empress,
so ex arh! clothes only still need $19, per day some more?? daylight robbery... it isn't like the hospital gowns are made of silk lor.
re: hospital's baby blanket
i saw my friend's baby at TMC about 2 mths ago and was a bit surprised by the receiving blanket so-called "given" by the hospital. it looked like it's been washed many times over leh. 'cos i could feel the material was quite rough and have tiny little fabric bumps on the surface. i asked my friend if it was her own blanket, she said no, given by hospital. hmm... maybe 'cos she booked 4-bedded that's why??
shin,

Hi Mummies and Ian, how is everyone?
I've been resting at home for the past few days cos i experience mild early labour contractions and have to take medications to relax the womb.
Ade - were you at Dr. Woody last tuesday? If yes, i think i saw you...a pretty mummy! Saw from the archives you experience contractions too, how are you feeling now?
Re - Nursing bra
I went for my antenatal class and Lilian actually advise that we dun buy nursing bra yet cos the size might change. Its better to buy after we deliver when the milk supply kicks in.
Re - Hospital bag
All of you are so fast! I guess since i'll be home resting this entire week, i should start packing my bag too [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Jac,
Last preggy, my uterus didnt shrink back after delivery and I lost alot of blood. When they pressed on my tummy, all the blood oozed out + need to "dig" out the blood clot. It was a nightmare for me. They had to constantly "massgae" my uterus, which is pressing super hard on my tummy. Every nurse and doctor who comes in will do that until my tummy super painful, like blue black feeling. I was so scared whenever some nurse/ doc comes in and want to "massage" me. I guessed I must be one mummy who doesnt like the "massage" after birth. ;p But I suay, uterus never shrink back on its own. Heng, the nurse realised, otherwise I will end up bleeding alot lor.

but uterus shrink back is progressive de le..not immediate after birth....when u engage malay masseur to massage they will help you push back the uterus to the right position and help in shrinking too. But a good masseur is important. You dun want to engage a not good one and anyhow massage for you push wrong place jialat....
xin2
contraction is the whole tummy suddenly hardening and then hor for a moment or two u seem to feel breathless abit...it can happen for a couple seconds...u will know...hee hee the feeling is not everyday kinda bb movement....feel...

cyn,
How many days of bed rest are you given? Hope all is well now and you are resting well. Did your nasty boss call up and ask you to do work while at home?
Zuen,
Your experience sounded painful. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] hopefully this time round things will go smoother for you. After that did you hire any Malay masseur?

Etelle,
Maybe contract is more appropriate? It is supposed to become smaller or something. Otherwise will continue to bleed inside. E nurse suspected it when I suddenly passed out slot of blood. It was really alot of blood wor. I can feel liquid flowing out when they pressed on my tummy. Eventually, I was given medicine into e drip to help but all e nurses/ docs were instructed to check n everybody kept 'massaging' me.
Jac,
I did engage but after 1 mtg cos dd in hospital for 3 weeks. Initially, more busy with expressing n shuffling btw home n hospital to visit dd. My "confinement" was non existent until e last week when dd came back. Have u got your massage lady liao? From where huh? I haven found mine.

Morning all the mummies and Ian!
I could barely sleep the entire night with my very active lil one kicking and punching me! And i thought since i can't get to sleep, i might as well start washing baby's clothes. Am just done with the washing (using washing machine of course and komodo detergent which smells so nice!), took up 6 bamboo poles to hang up all his clothes.
Xin - the contractions are like what Etelle describe, you'll know it when you experience it.But for me, i felt pain as well and thought it was the result of my boy's painful kicks so i ignore but the pain got more intense and i could feel my belly tightening so i message my gynae who then asked me to go see him that evening.
Jac - i was given 1 week hospitalization leave and told to monitor myself and go back to him if i still dun feel well. And yes, my boss did ask me to do work but this time she just send it to me through email (no smses!), i just basically pretend not to see it lor since i already emailed her the urgent things i have done for her and told her i need to be on bed rest and really rest well. I dunno if she will call or sms me if i dun reply to her emails but i'm sure i'm in for a bad time if i go back to work next week. But i'll just take one step at a time. I know this time i really really need to rest and not be a "superwoman" everyone else expects me to be. My baby is important than all of them!
Ade,good to hear that you are feeling better! I wasn't 100% sure it was you so i paiseh to call you...especially when the clinic is pack with so many ppl. I was standing near the counter waiting for the nurse to give me my medcine and i think i saw your lovely son too [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

zuen,
i remember your story about the non-existent confinement 'cos your dd was in hospital for weeks. may this time round be a much smoother delivery and confinement for you! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] for post natal massage, i'm going for this:
http://www.originsjamumassage.com/Jamu-Postnatal-Massage-Package.html
think the package for 10 days is quite worth it at $728.
ade,
i don't know whether is it because she was in 4-bedded ward that's why given poorer quality blanket or not.
momotan,
endure another few weeks. we are nearing the end! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
etelle,
that's a very useful compilation! thanks!

morning mommies..
Cyn and Ade do take care ya.
xin2, when i was admitted for contraction at week 23 i also have no clue what is it. all i know is the hardening and tightening lasted 6 hour or more and eventually i become breathless so call up the emergency hotline to enquire. The CTG shows close regular contraction in short period of time and it hurts at some peaks. So u can self time it to know if it's normal. Just that lately after back to work, my hardening and tightening comes back on and off with backache, and i'm getting a little confused as some ppl told me a labour contraction may not necessary be contracting. Need to be careful also if u have a persisted hardening cum lower backache. I still need to clarify with gynae on this part.
momotan, take care and drink lotsa water ya.
Anyone experiencing leg cramps in the middle of the night, i'm getting it every other day i started to wonder if that's normal. It's very painful!

etelle, yes 6 bamboo poles! no joke! But i just realise i bought way too much newborn size [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] i think baby will outgrow them very very fast....i did'nt buy baby's cupboard, basically i just use the one i have in my guest room. Am thinking of buying those cupboard organizers to hang inside so when there's more baby clothes, i can just fold and keep inside instead of hanging it all. Basically i think i am 90% ready to welcome my baby, just need to wash bedding set & towels, pack hospital bag and wait for the time to pop.
Morning Mummies & Ian.
LIlbluey, I wana ask you base on your past expereince with AL Lim hor, the wks nearer to due date. Did you go bi-wkly visit? or it bcomes a wkly visit?
Cyn, you take care and rest well. Ya, dun care about tht heartless manager of yours. Ignore her and get all the rest needed since we all are in the last lap now.
Momotan, take care too and rest often too. I think cos not enough rest that's why immunity goes low also.

do u guys pack extra clothing to office? in case like it started to show sign in office and u may need to change? how early do u guys start your maternity leave? 1 or 2 weeks before EDD?
I'm not so much concern about the hospital bag yet, hubby can still come home and pick up the bag as long as i've already pack it. More concern about the lifecord kit coz can't keep in the car too early, wondering when to put in car?

It depends on whether you gonna use it onot?
TO me,if your uterus and tummy shrink bakc in time after massages...there's no need to buy!

empress,
my legs will like wanna cramp and the feeling would wake me up then i quickly stretch the leg muscles before the cramp really sets in. very irritating. can happen like 3-4 times a night.
cyn,
that idiotic boss of yours!! yah, ignore her emails. just say you were on total bedrest as instructed by doctor, and didn't see anything. one day she will get her karma! oh by the way, did your gynae mention anything about expecting you to pop earlier than the EDD? of course not so early like now, but when baby's full term, like 37 weeks?
momotan,
take 2 days' MC and rest at home? can have a quiet and peaceful long weekend.

Morning ladies...
Cyn,
aiyo... take care leh... since now you are given 1 wk to rest at home, pls rest well, dun move/walk a lot. My gynae did mention that early contractions might come back again if you over exert hor.
Ade,
U take care too!
Groovy2009,
Binder can buy on your own. Whatever it is, buy on your own is always cheaper than charged by hospital. I rem binders are very much essential for c-sect mummies due to the wound. For natural, more for cosmetic usage. My #1, I din use this so dun intend to get it for now. When need to, I rem can get from the pharmacy/shop at the hospital. So not urgent.
Hospital PJs and towels
=======================
Not sure abt other hospital but for MT.A they definitely got towels provided. When I was admitted for early contractions, the nurse just told me to ask for towels from them when I want to bathe. So no need to pack in the towels lah.
As for PJs, when in labour ward, they will provide but once given birth and after washing up by the nurse, they will help you to put on your own PJs. I think if you din bring, I am sure they will provide lor but hor, high chances that they will charge.
For me, I personally prefer night gown. coz what I did is I will pull up my gown to my waist area, so i wun stain the gown and use my blanket to cover my lower body. Felt safer and "free". Hee... Personal preference lah.
Oh for baby's clothing, few years ago for my #1, is when he is in hospital, he will wear whatever they provide. But once going home, you got to provide a set of clothes for changing. I wasn't given any set of clothes/swaddle cloth for him. Only take back 1 bath tub, the remaining pampers, a bottle of milk, an extra disposable teat for the milk and some alchohol swab for his umbilical cord.

hi princess! Have fun at your doc's appt!
Jac - yes, i totally ignore her now. Really can't be bothered what she's going to do or say next. If she's not happy, she can fire me and be prepared to answer to MOM [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Etelle,
great minds think alike! haha... Hi-5!
Empress,
talking abt preparing extra clothing in office, I can still rem during my #1, I have pack in a small bag of towel, change of clothes, pad and disposable undies in office but end up din use coz I was induced eventually. That bag stayed my my office cubicle for at least 2 years!! haha... me lazy to bring back... haha...
For those who intend to work all the way, good to pack in the above stuff in office just in case. My SIL that time broke her water bag in office, end up she got nothing to change to, her cubicle is all wet and she got to wear the wet clothes (and still dripping) to take a cab to hospital... So do prepare something in office bah. Oh and get a close colleague on speed dial... always good to have someone to help at that instant...

Jac - she told her gynae she very heavy and tired, can't walk short distance even so her gynae gave her 2 weeks to wait for delivery but then she gave birth on her 3rd day of MC! She was very disappointed as only "earn" extra 3 days.
I hope my gynae will give me too so I will try my luck when closer to EDD.
Vivian, thanks for pointing out. Forgot about preparing another bag for office just in case.
