Dear all,
I can be discharge today
My girl Clara too!
I was worried just now as she has not pass her hearing test but the nurses assure me that is very common as some are due to water as our water bag burst inside
So she is still not pass for the high pitch but after 1 month or less, the water will start to reduce

i dont like u rach. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]...every time see u ..i sure spend money..muahahahhhahaha.
When should I have pethidine?
During the first stage of labour, when your cervix is opening up from being tightly closed to ten centimetres dilated; that is, before you start pushing. You can't have pethidine if your obstetrician thinks you're close to giving birth because it could sedate the baby.
Yah... i was like at 5cm after 2 hours...(was already 3cm when i admit.... after pethidine, i dilated from 5-10cm in 1.5hrs!!
What are the advantages of pethidine?
• Widely available, relatively inexpensive, simple to administer, perceived by mothers to be less invasive and less risk than epidurals.
• Can be administered by a midwife - no need for a doctor
What are its disadvantages?
• It may make you very sleepy - some women don't even know they've given birth!
not in my case...
• It can make you feel sick or vomit even if you have an anti-emetic
not in my case...
• It may make you feel dizzy
maybe..dunno is pethidine or laughing gas that made me high...
• You may be drowsy while contractions are building up, but wake up suddenly when the contractions reach their peak
yah..dunno is pethidine or laughing gas.. i was subconscious and lay motionless till the peak i'll squeeze my HB's hands whenever it peaks..
• It crosses the placenta and may sedate your baby and affect your baby's breathing. This largely depends on the dose and timing of the injection.
no idea...
• Your baby may need to have an antidote injection (narcan) as soon as she is born to reverse the effects of the pethidine in her system
no idea...
• She may be very sleepy for a few days and not interested in feeding
not true....i latched her few hours later and she latched....
• Breastfeeding is less likely to be successful if you have pethidine in labour
CONFIRMED NOT in my case...hahha......
Any useful tips?
• Always ask for a vaginal examination to see how far your cervix has dilated BEFORE having pethidine. If you are farther on than you thought, you might decide that you don't need it after all.
• If you know that medication has a powerful effect on you, ask for a small dose of pethidine. It can be given in 50mg, 100mg and 150mg doses. So 50mg may suit you best if you are small in stature, or if you are the kind of person who takes an aspirin and feels lightheaded!
• Remember that it takes about 20 minutes for the drug to start working. So use your breathing techniques to help you until the drug kicks in.
yes... i suffered like 20 super HIGH contractions before it took effect...
• After the birth, be patient with your baby (and yourself). It will take her four or five days to get all the pethidine out of her system. If you give her time, she will get the hang of breastfeeding! Ask for help from midwife or lactation consultant at your hospital.

not true leh....
jaime> hahahhahhaha.... dun see me lo.....
2K> thats why i think u took the pethidine just before ur contractions went up another peak...
not so much that pethidine speed up contractions..
its about timing... i would think... u would have died(not literally) if u didnt have pethidine then....
cuz u may have felt it coming faster...imagine without pethidine.... siao liaoz.....
so.... it depends on when u took pethidine....
as the contractions come faster and faster.... so it just so happen after u took at that time.. i was about to increase and u blame it on pethidine.....
i'm not a pethidine advocate..... i would rather go without anything...
now that i see the real black and white side effects.... i'll still not want it...unless really bo bian la.... if no dilate..and going to die...i'll take....
else... its still... NATURAL NATURAL!!
No induced please!!! heheeh..

I took pethidine, the nurses pushed it and I was induced in the AM and went to hospital at 9pm and still only 1cm! After pethidine it moved to 3cm onward.
I think the only thing was that i had issues with milk production but that's just me, my body. I hope I wont have issues this time round.
But it looks like I'll have to be induced again [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] argh. Will decide next week.

M: my friend told me the rubber teats sterilise too much become very soft very fast. Any other brand compatible with the NUK bottles?
Babybride: My bill haben come yet. They will provide you with maternity pads, night gown, disposable panties. The kotex pads more comfortable than the loop ones TMC give. I stay in one bedder the private suites. The rooms are very nice cos just renovated last year ( got pic on my FB). Like stay chalet like that. My gynae only saw me twice when I was in labour. 7am+ and the moment when baby come out. Everything else was communicated thru the phone with the midwives, gynae will instruct the midwives what to do.
The midwives are nice, I still rem their name Nurse Chiang and Nurse Peiling. I find Nurse Chiang very experienced and both also not rough at all.
