Claire: They give me a package price for both the 32-week growth scan and the 3D scan. I'm paying $216 (incl. GST) for both. So guess it's about $100 each? All I know is that it'll cost more if you do each one separately. This is at the TMC scan centre on Lvl 4. Maybe you may want to consider [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] I wasn't set on it until I saw my friend's 3D scans of her baby and I thought it'd be a nice memento to have. I'm not sure how many printouts I'll get though, and I've been told the clarity is highly dependent on baby's position at the time of the scan, so am keeping my fingers crossed that baby Lucas cooperates!
Yes, I have low-lying placenta, diagnosed since 5th month scan. It didn't move at the 6th month and 7th month scan, sigh. So I have been mentally preparing myself for the possibility of a c-section, although there's still time (till about 34 weeks) for it to move. Now, when I think about natural birth, I'm also getting scared!!! Haha~ I've been doing too good a job of psycho-ing myself into believing that c-section will be fine, and now I'm apprehensive of natural birth ....
And you're right - I do drink lots of water in the evening. Actually, I have been drinking galleons of water in the last couple of months. Just suddenly feel very thirsty nowadays. But somehow in the daytime, I don't pee so often. I think it's because at night, I don't sleep so comfortably so I wake up quite easily, then when I wake I feel that bladder full sensation (even if it's not really that full) and that sensation is enough to prevent me from falling asleep again, so I have to relieve myself before attempting to get back to bed. Sigh. It's a vicious cycle!! Hope I can last the next 8 weeks with this poor quality of sleep. I heard the bladder problem will only get worse as baby grows bigger.
Trinket: Ya, I'll be 32 weeks this Sat so as of today, is just 31w3d
32 weeks is quite a milestone !! you're not that far off leh ... time goes really quick once u hit 30 weeks ... ok, will take ur advice re nursing bras and get 1 or 2 ... but how about nursing tops? Are those necessary?
Gregda: Your EDD is really close to mine!! Who knows, we may bump into each other if we're delivering at the same place... I'll most likely be at TMC although I haven't booked anything yet. My gynae says she can't deliver at Mt. A in Feb as she's fully booked there, whatever that means, sigh ... have you done your pre-admissions or anything related to it?? I'm so clueless about it? Will definitely ask my gynae for more info when I see her this Thurs ...
re: IKEA changing table ... how come urs got no smell??? mine was quite dusty from the sawdust too and I cleaned it thoroughly, but the smell seems to be very stubborn ... the entire nursery and the corridor outside stinks of it and it's been at least a week of airing already ... and I also have to lug the tub of water from the washroom to baby's room to place on top of the changing table, haha ... seems like quite a funny thing to do eh?? But it will save us some backache...
Lunchtime soon! I'm hungry!
