Hi Kadice,
It was charged for my cousin so she is going to query them. I found out from the nurses that (22pcs) of Huggies diapers & baby wipes are complimentary.
No mentioned abt disposable underwears or pads, so I am bringing my own.
Did u sign for a single room package?
Fleur is at GlenE now, she can advice us later when she has rested well.
Fleur, can u advice us? Thks!

Jolene, I came in glen's at 3am. Constant n strong contractions bag burst at home.
16Hr labor End up csec. Failed vbac. Dilation stopped @ 6cm. Given drip to increase contractions n push bb down. After being stuck at 6cm from 2pm-6pm, gynae say csec. Cause too long labor scared old wound rupture, also scared if natural, uterus may be too tired to contract which will can hemorrhage

lili >my gynae also sy no induce n bb mus b below 3kg to try vbac for me. My bb is alrdy 2.9kg, so i tink i cant opt for vbac liao. Bt my last visit, he sy if i really wan2 try, thn he wil jus let me go into labor naturally n wil monitor the csec wound closely. Any sign of tearing, i wil b pushed into op immediately. Sound abit scary to me. So i m really in a dilemma.

<font color="aa00aa">My gynae always measure the fetal height and press my tummy before she do ultrasound scan during routine visits. Guess she's trying to feel baby's position.
My baby is still in transverse position. Hope he'll turn his head down as I'm approaching 38 weeks.</font>

Whao! Congrats to all the mummies that have given birth! I m bored to tears at home! I m coming 39 weeks this fri and no signs of contractions. Bb is engaged since 2 weeks ago and she is already 3.5 kg last sat.I m really worried that I can't deliver naturally due to her size. My bump is really big now!

chris, which wk r u at now? wt is very subjective right? cos their machine estimation might not be so accurate. me also hoping for vbac but of cos scared rupture. but i hate the cut open feeling. so i think i'll still try natural first then emergency c-sect later if anything happens. kp my gynae on his toes i guess.
petrina, must be hard on you. last time mine also stuck at 6cm. hopefully this time will move. is it due to our c-sect wound which is not so elastic that's why bb stuck? did u hv epidural? most imptly, glad you and baby are well! congrats!
jolene, congrats! u r really brave without epidural. and good size!

Ssmilezz: yes, this is my no one... My bump is huge too!! Can't sleep well at night... I need to wake up every 1-2 hrs to pee and drink water!!! Such a torture.... Bb is also torturing me by turning my tummy square shape and round and square again!!!

Lili girl
Yup. Just started my leave at 38weeks+ which was yesterday.
Jasmine
Just do abit of chores here and there. Then rest abit. Then find food to fill our tummies then rest again. Must take advantage of this ME time while we can.
Minnzo
Haha. I also like watching online dramas. So I keep myself busy watching shows but usually i can't sit thru the entire one hour episode now. Maybe watch half hour max.
I also wake up like every 2-3 hours to pee and drink water now. your girl sounds just like mine leh. Super active moving inside. Think she's very comfy inside still.
When is your EDD? Should be just a few days before mine - 18 jun.

smilez, my contraction was quite irregular but was pretty strong last night that i only slept at 4am. almost teared when i got the shooting pain right down to my pubic bone there. anyone experience this?
i think our tummy have limited space for them le. my baby is 3.3 - 3.4kg as of Monday. Im trying to control my diet now cos my first child was close to 3.9kg and it really was a torture.

Congrats to all mummies who have given birth already. Do rest well. Its a pretty hot month to have confinement, hope it will get better.
Went for my 37th week check yesterday. Bb 2.3kg head down but not engaged yet, gynea says still alot of water inside, i'm hoping bb will at least gain 200g every week till delivery, but nowadays the weight of my belly is just killing me.
I starting to have stomach cramps more often. Almost forgot how it felt like to have period cramps.
Smilezz: I'm also blasting the fan right now. My aircon started raining ice last night, thankfully hubby got woken and cleaned up the mess, can't imagine slipping on melted ice when i go to the toilet in the middle of the night. Hopefully can get the aircon repaired before i deliver, else my confinement will be hell.
Hopecg: For the spray, is it ok if you mail it to me instead? Lately i'm feeling too lethargic to go out. sorrie. Let me know how much to pay you for the postage k. Thanks a mil!

Lili gal, normal birth with assisted delivery. Really tough man.
Xiaowei, if water level goes down does it imply that delivery is around the corner? My Gynae also say my water still enough but I don't really know what does it meant...
Hopecg, #1 having school holiday. Everyday got gaigai with MIL. He is 4 now, pretty much have his own activities. Sometimes he will ignore me, ask me don't disturb him hahaha

Think you need to have specific roles - like a job description. haha..then each person will know who do what. haha...
Jasmine
wah! 3.9kg?! So how was your labour experience for no 1? You should be more well prepared given that this is your second.
I haven't been eating a lot more but yet baby is still gaining without me doing anything!!! I was telling my hubby i think even if i breathe, i put on weight now. LOL!!
It's the pain shooting down the back that really irritates me.
Xiao Wei
Typically at each visit, baby is gaining around 200g - 300g weekly so not to worry k?
Try to arrange for your aircon servicing while u are at home. We will definitely need aircon to survive.
I ended up switching on aircon liao..cannot take it...just too humid and I'm getting heat rash.
Redtea
Congrats to you too!!
At least you did get one or two days break before you delivered. Hope you are coping well at home. You ordered Natal Essentials for the entire month? Do share your birth story if you have time.
Liligal
Hmm...i think i'll miss my girl's movement when she's out so Im telling myself to enjoy this bond while it lasts.
Not that bored la, i can find things to occupy myself. When are you starting your ML?

Aiyoh, your boy very independent yah? Is he looking forward to meeting his mei mei?
How long did your first one take? I think pushing out a 3.9kg baby is no joke. Got to really salute you!!
I don't think less water means it's time. It just means that there is a higher chance the doc might want to induce instead. Cos I have quite a few friends who had to be induced as the water level is insufficient.
I dunno what makes the water level low but based on my last visit on Tues, gynae says there's still more than enough water inside.

Rellako: Coz my bb's weight is on the lower side, gynea say as long as theres alot of water, it means that bb is not starving, so no cause for worry. He say prob hereditary since me and hubby also small - medium build. If water getting lesser then need to get bb out le, if not bb dont get enough nutrients the weight will start to drop.
liligal: I'm hoping for him to be out around 39weeks so hopefully by then he will be around 2.8kg. Was hoping for slightly above 3 so that he's easier to manage. Haha. But i'll let nature take its course, wont stuff myself silly with durians.

Smilez, every pregnancy is different and I'm still having jitters though it's my second. First labour took around 18 hours, was nausea and vomitted. Back breaking as well cos it's a big baby. My #1 4 years old already, so tink pretty much easier to handle. He do keep candies for his Meimei. Haha.
Xiaowei, oh I see. No worries so long Gynae didn't say raise any concern. Too much durian also not good.. Will caused high bp and gd. Let nature takes it's course.

hmm.. my birth story very short one.

830 am go out breakfast with my boys and then proceed to their childcare for PTC at 9am. still feeling contraction but din really time and some more oso very irregular.
at 12noon +, tell my hubby, this may be it, cos after so many hrs, there's still contraction. so we pack bait here and there. called my mom to come back take care of my boys.
left for TMC at 2pm. on the expressway jam. lucky only jam awhile cos of accident, still joke with my hubby the other side of the expressway jam even worst than our side.
reach hospital almost around 2.45pm. wana wait for hubby to do admition first b4 go ob ward. but the staff is so slow there, so we proceed to go lvl 2 ob ward first.
at ob ward, b4 midwife do CE, i said i wan EPI
midwife do CE and shocked tat i'm already 9cm dilated and suggest tat i don't take since already can deliver. of cos me oso shocked. i thought only 3-4 cm and got to wait for few hrs for dilation. so i thought since already 9cm and i wanna try drug free, so no epi. midwife quick moved me to the delivery ward and then wait for my gynae to come from the OT nearby doing c-sec.
gynae come 1 hr later and i'm ready to push, cos got the urge to push is strong when contraction come. after 5-6 pushes, my heaviest bb delivered at 3.620kg.

Amazing man! U must have a super high threshold of pain and looks like practice does make perfect (given that this is no 3!). Not easy given that your baby is not a small one too!
Thanks for sharing.
How are you finding the quality of food so far from Natal Essentials?
Jasmine
Good that your boy is looking forward to his mei mei coming out soon. So cute of him to keep candies for her.
Xiao Wei
Don't stuff yourself silly with durians la. Better to eat like more protein. In any case, how well the baby grows really depends on how good the blood flow is to help baby absorb all the nutrients.
liligal
then for your case u need to do everything u can to bring on labour naturally. haha..talk to your baby everyday.
I just realized that there are many experienced mummies here! One after one popping!

Redtea: Wow, did you feel pain when u had your contractions? I'm amazed you could still go about your daily activities till u were 9cm dilated. So lucky
