re: baby popping early
i thought first kid usually late. 2 of my friends were a week late. some 2/3 days late. my friends all had their first later than EDD. Little do i know the mummies here pop quite early.
re: waterbag
i read that if you are standing, the water will just trickle down as bb head acts as a plug. only experience gush when say lying down.
pearlyn,
your grab your hubby's arm really funny! yes i think he prob thought you gonna deliver!! wuahahahaa... the first time my calf cramp, the muscle ached for days...

teoong,
same, only one side. mine always on the left. good thing only one side. if both sides really can cry!!
re: meal before delivery
my gyane warned me over and over not to eat before delivery leh. he said it's a stupid thing to do, because you nv know if you need to have emergency c-section or not and it's no laughing matter going into operating theatre with full stomach, can lead to a lot of complications. a bit scared when i heard him say that... but he assured that if really hungry, hospital will provide light snacks. so for me, die-die no food before admission. the most some snacks. but if water bag burst right after a meal then bo bian lah..

etelle,
there are also friends who had perfectly normal pregnancies who told me to eat a full meal before going into hospital so that have energy to push. but after hearing my gynae's warning, i think best not. just in case lah.. will have chicken essence before going in and then play by ear while waiting to push. if got chance then drink a bit of milo with cream crackers. at least will digest faster than a full meal.
don't get me wrong, not saying totally don't eat and starve yourself then later got gastric pains. eat simple, easily-digested SNACKS or just drink glucose for energy. bottom line from my gynae is: don't stuff yourself! some women may experience side-effects from epidural which can include vomiting. so if eat till full also very nasty if have to vomit.

My colleague give birth in TMC, they dun allow her anything to eat / drink even when she told them tht she is really hungry wor.. she said she kept repeating herself to every nurse / midwives that she is very hungry but all ignore her. End up, she went from trying natural to taking epdi then finally C-sec. Poor thing.
heeeheee.. I think so long eat some light food shld be alrite bah cos we won't know how long the labour will be like. I will ask my gynae this Sat when i see him

Last time I study probability & statistics and realized that we could never win in the casino. The casino has more chances to win against us.
That's why I never gamble. haha..

Yah. KK will provide the clothes for you. Change to your own only when discharge. But I really like their gown. Comfy and convenient.
Metta:
No food and drinks once you go into delivery room. This is quite standard across all hospitals. Its not recommended as it will make you puke/pass motion/etc. Interfere with delivery. They will only give ice cubes to wet your lips.

re: induce early
can we really opt to do this? would gyane allow? i'm just thinking if really can, why not. 'cos at least everything is expected and no need to worry about maternity leave, water breaking in office, caught unawares etc etc. any comments on this?

princess, you mean that your gynae allows you to opt to induce earlier? i thought most do not encourage unless bb is real big or 'yang-shui' not enough?
Gsm, wah! Your gynae charges 1k more!
i don't think my gynae does that cos I remember the pricing list that his clinic give doesn't state this, only that is wana C-sec at specific timing then got extra charges

Jac, the ones i hear dat will offer induce labor are the ones whose babies are big. But no harm asking yr gynae. i was thinking the same thing too.. easier bah got scheduled date. Im sure some gynaes dun mind since its easier for them too but baby must be at least 37 weeks

marrissa,
i think also better for gynaes since it will be scheduled. but i guess induced labour is also more expensive bah.. 'cos need to admit into hospital earlier and don't know when labour will actually start. heard that it can be a matter of hours to days.

allo, on eating before labour. I check in to hospital on Monday to better manage my sugar but was given very small portion of food. Was constantly on hunger pangs n pains n got to sleep it away. It is really physically n emotionally drainning for me. So most likely I will try to eat just engh before going to hospital.

re: hunger during labour
i hate having hunger pangs! it's very torturous for me le... if want me to "fast" and not eat or drink for even 12 hours, i think really can die. at least pain can have epidural. but nothing for hunger except FOOD!

How come the French bread keep u in hospital to monitor sugar level?
Hi Mummies & Ian,
Have been soooooo busy getting ready stuff for DD's birthday in September & getting ready for baby's arrival.
1st things 1st.....still owe you all my MIL's antics for my Malaysia wedding dinner.
As we couldn't go for our honeymoon as hubby can't fly due to his heart condition. Initially MIL asked us to bring forward the Malaysian dinner. Thank God we declined as I was afraid that it would be too tiring for hubby. Hubby was back in the hospital for a week due to a viral fever 3 days after the Singapore dinner. So after he was discharged, made sure that he rested before we went back to Malaysia for the dinner.
Kluang wedding dinner - the plan was to go there on a Friday afternoon, have the dinner on Saturday night & come back to Singapore on Sunday afternoon. My parents, & sister would go with us for the dinner. I got hubby to get his parents to book 2 rooms. One for hubby & I, & one for my family to share. As this would be my family's 1st time to Kluang, I thought it would be better for hubby & I to stay in the same hotel as them. Unfortunately, the hitch in my plan was, my sister (who is a piano teacher) had an evening lesson which she was unable to reschedule & could only go to Kluang on Saturday morning. My parents decided to take the Saturday morning train with her so that she wouldn't take the train alone. Hence, I would drive in with hubby with all the luggage & my family would travel light.
I asked hubby to get his parents to cancel one hotel room. This is where the trouble started. Hubby came back & told me that his parents had canceled both hotel rooms, and that we could spend Friday night at PIL's place. I explained to hubby that as we are traveling with all the luggage, I didn't want to leave it all in the car, which meant that I would have to move all the luggage myself. This is because both hubby & FIL has a heart condition, & it wouldn't be nice for me to ask MIL to help me with the luggage. Hence, if we stayed one night at PIL's place, I would have to move all the luggage into the house, & then move it back into the car on Saturday to move to the hotel, which would be quite a hassle too. Hence, hubby called back to ask his parents to rebook one of the canceled rooms & told me that PIL said that MIL was upset that we were not spending Friday night at PIL's place. I told hubby that we always stay at PIL's place when we are in Kluang & only for this time, we would stay in a hotel, so I really don't see what's the problem. When hubby called back to ask FIL to rebook the room again, FIL told him that MIL was very upset & was crying!! When hubby told me that I was very pissed!! As I felt that MIL was emotionally blackmailing us into complying with what she wanted. Hubby asked me to speak with FIL myself over the phone. I told hubby that if I spoke with FIL, things may become unpleasant....better for him to speak with them. When hubby spoke with FIL again, FIL claimed that there was no rooms available on Friday night. I told hubby.....it is Kluang, I don't believe that place is so hot that the hotel rooms would be all fully booked....especially when the room was just canceled one day ago. Gave hubby an ultimatum....if the room was not settled, I would not be going to Kluang for the dinner. After that I left it to hubby to settle with his parents. And in the end, the room was available again. How about that?? Hence, with all these things settled, we went to Kluang & had the dinner there too.
So I guess, MIL & I just keep to a cordial relationship, but there's no real love between us....lol

1st things 1st.....still owe you all my MIL's antics for my Malaysia wedding dinner.
As we couldn't go for our honeymoon as hubby can't fly due to his heart condition. Initially MIL asked us to bring forward the Malaysian dinner. Thank God we declined as I was afraid that it would be too tiring for hubby. Hubby was back in the hospital for a week due to a viral fever 3 days after the Singapore dinner. So after he was discharged, made sure that he rested before we went back to Malaysia for the dinner.
Kluang wedding dinner - the plan was to go there on a Friday afternoon, have the dinner on Saturday night & come back to Singapore on Sunday afternoon. My parents, & sister would go with us for the dinner. I got hubby to get his parents to book 2 rooms. One for hubby & I, & one for my family to share. As this would be my family's 1st time to Kluang, I thought it would be better for hubby & I to stay in the same hotel as them. Unfortunately, the hitch in my plan was, my sister (who is a piano teacher) had an evening lesson which she was unable to reschedule & could only go to Kluang on Saturday morning. My parents decided to take the Saturday morning train with her so that she wouldn't take the train alone. Hence, I would drive in with hubby with all the luggage & my family would travel light.
I asked hubby to get his parents to cancel one hotel room. This is where the trouble started. Hubby came back & told me that his parents had canceled both hotel rooms, and that we could spend Friday night at PIL's place. I explained to hubby that as we are traveling with all the luggage, I didn't want to leave it all in the car, which meant that I would have to move all the luggage myself. This is because both hubby & FIL has a heart condition, & it wouldn't be nice for me to ask MIL to help me with the luggage. Hence, if we stayed one night at PIL's place, I would have to move all the luggage into the house, & then move it back into the car on Saturday to move to the hotel, which would be quite a hassle too. Hence, hubby called back to ask his parents to rebook one of the canceled rooms & told me that PIL said that MIL was upset that we were not spending Friday night at PIL's place. I told hubby that we always stay at PIL's place when we are in Kluang & only for this time, we would stay in a hotel, so I really don't see what's the problem. When hubby called back to ask FIL to rebook the room again, FIL told him that MIL was very upset & was crying!! When hubby told me that I was very pissed!! As I felt that MIL was emotionally blackmailing us into complying with what she wanted. Hubby asked me to speak with FIL myself over the phone. I told hubby that if I spoke with FIL, things may become unpleasant....better for him to speak with them. When hubby spoke with FIL again, FIL claimed that there was no rooms available on Friday night. I told hubby.....it is Kluang, I don't believe that place is so hot that the hotel rooms would be all fully booked....especially when the room was just canceled one day ago. Gave hubby an ultimatum....if the room was not settled, I would not be going to Kluang for the dinner. After that I left it to hubby to settle with his parents. And in the end, the room was available again. How about that?? Hence, with all these things settled, we went to Kluang & had the dinner there too.
So I guess, MIL & I just keep to a cordial relationship, but there's no real love between us....lol
I went for gynae visit today too. Gynae says baby is on track for week 31. I've put on 0.3 kgs in 2 weeks. Gynae comment that my weight gain is poor.....but I guess since baby is on track....he didn't express any obvious concern about my poor weight gain. My total weight gain for this pregnancy so far is 2.3kgs.

snoopy,
What a dramatic MIL you have! Use tears some more. Scary!
Tiffy,
So they emptied the stomach from below yah? I thought they make you vomit or pump your stomach! Didn't know they would do this. Thought the most don't let you eat or drink and that's it..
I just opened up my Medela freestyle. Happy with what I see inside! The whole thing with the pump is really very light. But I worry about the breast shields. Think really gotta buy S-size to stand by. The M-sized ones are really too large for my nipples! Makes me wonder how come nipples can grow so large lor... Hmm. Or am I abnormal? Hope can pump and BF successfully.
