creamdonut,
gynae said my baby weight is within normal. he is hoping my baby to be around 2.5 to 2.8 kg. because i'm a small size person. if the baby is bigger than 3 kg, i may need c-sect. but i don't know why. i still want my baby to be big.

good afternoon!
happymomo, i think because chicken essence contains honey which is too sweet for diabetics. i'm going to ask later whether i can eat cookies and chocolates suitable for diabetics as i saw some selling at Guardian. 2 bowls of rice (esp if white) per meal will spike the blood sugar. if you are looking for snacks, i'd suggest fruits. the sugar content isn't as high as white rice.

constipation common. tried fybogel, fruits, papaya etc.
seems yakult / vitagen will turn constipation into LS. at least LS not pain and faster.
had been spending 30 min plus in toilet when constipated and sweating, hurting, worried push too hard will hurt BB.
wonder if childbirth is really like passing motion.

gilera: drink young coconut 1 month prior EDD .. as for chicken essence, I am drinking it twice a week now .. you can pack a bottle in hospital bag; to drink before delivery so you got strength to push during delivery .. if possible, drink a bottle everyday after delivery so as to gain back the strength ..
me going to pack my hospital bag the weekend before national day - in week 30 as I am seeing my
gynae on 5th, took leave on 8th and ph on 9th .. going to
wash baby clothings as well .. going to buy the remaining stuffs next week at the baby fair ..

bubblygeekypig- u want to try yogurt drink? Dragon fruit works for me too.
Maternity milk- can be too sweet. Watch the sugar content.

hey happymomo, i'm just back from the doctor. he said i can try chicken essence but if blood sugar spike, then i better stop. he wants me to test 3 days in a week, 3 times each day and see him 3 weeks later. no insulin as of now. funny thing he has cleared me to eat chicken chop without the sauce, no coleslaw and minimal amount of fries/mashed potatoes [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

during my last visit, my gynae asked "r u taking a lot of carbohydrates?" i think thats a subtle way of telling me to watch my diet.. haha
I have piles before n it was horrible removing it so now I take 2 kinds of fruits everyday to prevent constipation n piles.
Raspberry tea leaf
it is not to induce labour but to tone the muscle so that it works better during labour. u can read more here. http://www.babycentre.co.uk/pregnancy/labourandbirth/planningyourbabysbirth/raspberryteaeaselabourexpert/

constipation: papaya, prune juice, yogurt didn't really help me. so i stopped taking all these and try drink one glass of plain water every morning before breakfast. it works for me. since then i pass motion regularly even though the stool is not so soft.

Jinnous,
You're not alone,
My dark circles is bigger than my eyes..
Have to apply abit concealor b4 gg for work.
if not i look really tired...
i also cannot find the right position to sleep, cos cannot move or adjust as what we normally do during sleeping.. sometime sleep in wrong position might the skin around the bump might feel taut, tight or stretched..

jinnous > yours 3 days very good compare to mine, I had constipation for 5 days lor.. Stomach super bloated, told my HB I'm FOS. Feel so super terrible.. I still whack fruits everyday leh.. Me too have been losing slp, esp when need to turn the body suddenly feels so 'inflexible'.
Bubblygeekypig > no leh I didn't go and find out whether 'young' or 'old', I juz drink as long as it's coconut. But wat I know is 'old' coconut will be sweeter compare to 'young' one and the flesh is harder most probably can't even get to eat the flesh. U may try to ask the stall to help you choose think they shld be able to differentiate.

Sleeping is difficult
j can't just roll right or left coz share w hb need to shift right or left side while on the same spot. N lower half of body so heavy plus I hv pubic pain hv to keep legs together like a mermaid how to shift. Lift up butt then slowly turn bit by bit.
Bb kicks more when lie on my right. He is not comfortable?

Back from Dr, now 29w bb is 1.37kg, he was 850g at 25w, so weight gain was 520g. I did not put on much weight from the last visit, now total weight gain is almost 8kg. Previous pregnancy weight gain was 11kg total. scaled back on my fried food the last 2 weeks, guess that's a good thing...
Got a monitoring kit for GD, I only need to monitor 2x a week for 3 meals. Took 2 readings today, both well within normal range. Visit to dietician was interesting yesterday. She says I CAN eat durian, but limit to 4 small pcs. Basically just hv to reduce some carbs and combine carb with protein for all meals. And hv a fruit instead of a sweet drink at the end of the meal instead of my usual teh si ping siu dai. not too restrictive thankfully, just watch how much and how I combine the carbs. Looks like the GD diet is not too tough to follow.
today's bfast:
1 wholemeal pita wrap w ham, cheese, olives and lettuce. NICE! Next time can pack this to work for lunch too, just vary the meat and maybe add tomatoes [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

happymomo, eh you can ask your doc what foods you can eat or not eat. Mine gave me a list of foods I can take. Surprising I can eat mangoes n watermelon slice. 1 slice per meal.
Red apples should be cut in half. Green apples can eat in whole. But I think green apples is too heaty for me so I think I'll go back to papaya and honeydew s they r my fav.
He said I can try those chocolates n cookies suitable for diabetics but these tend 2b ex n they r not filling. No my gynae isn't an expert in this so I got a referral 2c a diabetic specialist at Mt E. I've seen him when kena GD for #1 so cos I'm a repeat patient I pay $60 to chit chat with him for 30min I think.
tamms, huh can eat durians? The doc I see says totally no durians nor Milo. Maybe the way they decide is on case by case basis. Your bfast looks so tempting
Mine's just low GI wholemeal bread spread with canola butter n Milo kosong 4 teaspoons.
gilera, not necessary diet will lead to GD. Cos mine is strong family history of diabetes n I kena GD when preg with #1 so that makes me a strong carrier. I try not to use my medical leave s I still got last year's leave not cleared.
minidiary, thks for recommending EYS chicken essence. Will most prob buy maybe 2moro.
Jinnous, sleeping thru the night is now out of the question ever since I was in 3rd tri with #1. Guess that's the sacrifice I've to make but good thing I fall back sleep quite fast provided hb doesn't snore [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

Sweetsnow, totally understand wat u have been going thru! Bcoz it's the same thing Wat's happening to me too... Then it juz happen tat my sales number sucks at the same time when I'm pregnant.... Haizzz.... Dun want to create the impression tat bcoz I'm pregnant n it's affecting my work which is not true.... But then my numbers didn't pick up no matter how hard i try Also feel very stress, demoralize n pressured.....
Sweet snow, just ask the gynae for it. Tell her u r stressed with work.usually they will understand. My gynae is good n understanding, always ask if I need mc. Ask how many days I want somemore. But bcos my job not stressful, I always only ask him to cover my checkup days. He actually encourages that I take more to rest...how nice right?
Royal: your gynae is so nice. My gynae is nice, v friendly, just that neva ask me ifi need mc. My work buddy is going on long reservist so I think I need to endure til at least when my buddy is back.
But I think sure get "marked" by boss even more if I do Tk long mc [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
