shycloud,
do you mean wearing long pants etc will prevent all parts of the body from feeling numb? Cos my numbness can be the thighs, arms, shoulders...
gripewater,
what does it do? It sounds like I should get some too, but I don't know what it's for. haha
chercat,
where did you do your waxing? Thinking of trying strip as my friend recommended someone good there.
Lina,
ok will monitor the discharge. This month appears to have a lot of strange symptoms to note.
Yah I was considered huge at birth, luckily for my mum I came out via caesarean.
You are giving birth overseas?
popomin,
I'm bringing 2 sets of clothes for baby to wear home, of varying sizes, in case she turns out larger than the typical nb, or smaller than I expect. haha.
reia,
my friends said overall the forehead gun type thermometer is easier to handle. Point and shoot! Baby may not like having the ear thermometer inserted, and fit or something may be a problem. You also have to replace the plastic caps right? Not sure how much those cost.
chabby,
maybe you need booties n mittens for going home?
as for diapers, so...are you bringing your own nb diapers? I didn't dare to buy nb size as I suspect my daughter can fit the small size diapers once she's born (just prepared for the worst) and if she's small then just let the hospital charge me for the first pack.
ting,
here's how I tackle my coffee addiction: Just buy one packet/cup in the morning for breakfast. Tell myself I will only drink half of it with breakfast, save the other half for tea time/lunch (reheat in office microwave). Sometimes you can get by without needing the other half, and I find my craving for coffee doesn't need a lot to satisfy...just a few sips and the aroma in the morning is enough for a 'placebo' effect. hehe
pinky,
wow...so could you actually feel the contractions, or can only tell from the machine? Even if you rest at home chances of early delivery are high?
