Can I join you gals for Watami gathering?
Poor jul, please take good care of yourself! Recently a lot of viruses! My daughter contacted stomach flu (vomiting lots and diahorrea) and it passed on to my husband, me and my mother in law in the whole household. My maid who cleaned up the vomit mess is the strongest!
Have fun with the meetup on Friday! Too bad my hubby and I have promised my brother to watch The Avengers with him.

Jul, I've been thinking about packing my hospital bag since 2 weeks ago.. so far.. no progress yet.. hahaha..
Hi Charmaine, you're welcome to join of course. Looks like you're going to pop also.. should be May mummy.. hehe..
Joycie, stomach flu is the worst.. it actually mutates in different people so it takes longer to eradicate it. Be sure not to share utensils, cups, crockery, etc. If possible, wear face masks to prevent further spreading.

Jul,

Jul, your spa specialises in pre-natal massage? Frankly I've not gone for any massage since I found out I was pregnant. Only been for a few facials. Even so, lying there for 1.5hr is really uncomfortable for me and I get worried about whether the lying position would affect blood flow to the baby 
I may go for one last one next month before I pop, then can look forward to post-natal massage
Note to self... Must do baby laundry and pack hospital bag this coming weekend!! >.<

Nah the one I called was Adeva spa. I have a mini trial package with them. Thought I could give it a try but they rejected me.
I shall call up my original spa then.
How can you survive without any massage? I need my monthly massage or the old bones will creak. But I must agree the facial is rather torturous. For massage it's different. You don't lie on your back but on your side, so the pressure isn't there.

Kadice, i told him i ran out of mc.. He will do VE check on 37wks. Membrane sweep.
He said he'll give me 1 wk HL.
He said he'll give me 1 wk HL.
Jul, is it safe for you to go for foot reflexology? I read that it's not recommended during pregnancy unless your therapist is very familiar with the nervous system connected to your feet cos pressing the wrong nerves can be detrimental to the baby. Gentle rubbing of the feet is ok though.
Re hospital leave, not sure if my gynae would give me in mid June or not... else will have to use my annual leave

My #1 also starts using straw at exactly 8 mths. Quite amazing she knows how to suck and drink the first te we gave her. Actually when I go back to work at 16 weeks old she doesn't want to latch and doesn't want bottle either! need to carry her to sleep before giving her drink from bottle. In the end around 4.5 mths old really cannot latch when half asleep so total dreamfeed using bottle.
I total latch during maternity leave, only give bottle once a week when going to church. Wrongly choose bottle teat, use M immediately becoz my girl very slow when drinking from S teat as she used to be breastfeed.
At the end of maternity leave, around 3 wks before, when she suddenly doesn't want to latch, she's okay with bottle for 1 week, mil gave her. Becoz hubby got deadlines, my maid hasn't come, mil go back medan already, I need to bottlefeed her for 1 week and she started to don't want to drink from bottle becoz I keep forcing her. Sigh.
I actually read in the internet that best if not the mother bottlefeed so the baby doesn't have nipple confusion. But in the end I am forced to, just before my maternity leave ends then she doesn't want both nipple and bottle huhu...
This time around I am going to try Y size teat to bottle feed. Still dunno the arrangement but now I have maid can ask her to bottlefeed. Unlike last time my hubby very lazy to bottlefeed saying milk won't be that fresh anymore lah. But #1 used to have ebm already now doesn't have that feeling anymore

I want to spend most of my time woth baby and #1. And especially becoz I have not get any confirmed childcare for #1!!!
The one next door only take in december. In worst case my maid need to take care of 2 for 2 mths then I will consume all my annual leave in november. Huhu. I need to see how. Hasn't asked my boss for this kind of arrangement. Actually best if can half day leave for 2 mths.
Also have not asked my gynea on the possibility of giving hl. Huhuhu

Those KIV i didn't add yet so I can take accurate headcount. I'll call to see if can book table.
Who is getting COCOMAX? Total order: 48 bottles
KEEN -
Nattan - 12 bottles
Petrina - 6 bottles
Delivery only to 1 location i think for free delivery..
Massage
I have yet to find a pre natal location who can massage till birth. Only tried Mums & Bellies Clinic @ Paragon. But not really relieving. So I didn't take their package.
HL
Do sound out your gynae b4 37wks so you ladies can make plans. I asked for 2 weeks HL. My gynae say shld be ok. But I KIV 1 week in case last min he say too long. Cause HL may need to justify whereas MC don't need. I ran out of MC cause I was on bedrest 7days already the other time he gave me. So if he give me MC this time, I can't use also. Maybe that's y he agree to HL.
For those who have ample MC, *since MC can't bring forward*, might as well take mixture. HL first then MC. So that it doesn't look too outstanding on the clinic n your HR.
Groovy: same lor.. my letdown during latch was strong. so bottle feed my boy very grumpy. So i poke bigger hole on S teat. but still can't. in the end i latch till 8mths then give straw le.
5mths or so started training mug. He managed to sit on baby chair by 4-5mths already.
Bottle feeding should be done by another person other than MOM. So that less struggle between baby n feeder. Natural instinct is to drink from source. So babies being natural, they will reject plastic and insist on nipple. Perhaps that's y the media states nipple confusion. It's just the baby rejecting what is 2nd grade nipple

Petrina. You must have missed my message. Do include me as well. Looking forward.
From what I know, most of the mummies here go to Baby Bellies or Jamu massage who specialises in Pre natal and post natal massage. Can check online to see which one is more accessible to you. Their packages are quite comparable.

Morning ladies!!
Sorry but I can’t join for dinner. Enjoy yourselves!!
HL/MC
I better ask my gynae during my checkup tomo to figure out when I should be taking my break so that I can plan my handover. Hopefully, she won’t be too stingy with the MC/HL.
Snoring
Sigh – my hub was so upset this morning cos he said I snored really loudly last night and he couldn’t sleep at all. Shucks man. I was totally dead to the world. Never had any snoring issues prior to the last few weeks. ARGH.
Jul
Glad to see you back in action. Take the opportunity to rest this week before you go back to work yah? No packing and what nots!!!

Morning ladies...
Feeling much better today. At least the fever and flu is totally gone. Just a bit of headache and body ache.
Still bleeding from constipation though
My diet consist of high fibre and protein bcos of GD. Been having wholemeal bread, brown rice, vege and fruits daily. Now, I've stopped taking my iron tablets to monitor the situation.
Jul, glad that u've recovered. Kind of scary for us to be sick and not knowing how our baby is reacting to it in our womb.
I realised that baby is getting more active nowadays. She has frequent hiccups too, usually 1-2 hours after meal time.
Re: Pre-natal massage, I've not heard that we've got to stop them at 33 weeks. But I've seen Doula massaging the back of almost-ready-to-deliver moms on Discovery and Living.
BTW, have u mummies done ur pre-admission registration? I've submitted mine last Friday. Also, took the latest copy of the TMC price list for maternity package for 1 bedded room, attached.

I slept really late last night cos was waiting up for hubby who went to help out at a friend's funeral wake. He came back around 1+am and we went to bed at almost 3am =.= So tired today...
Petrina, if cannot get enough people for the Cocomax order, I'll drop mine too and just buy from the shop downstairs. Let's have a cut off date, cos I want to get the coconut juice soon and if we cannot fulfill the min order, then just forget it
BTW, got to KIV my attendance for dinner this Fri cos I may have something on.
Ssmilezz, maybe you can ask your hubby to sleep in another room if he is bothered by the snoring.. hehe.. But perhaps you can also modify your sleeping position to minimise snoring.

nattan: yes.. I plan to cut off by tmr. so we can order in time. I don't think i can take 12 bottles since i already 35wks 4days.
BH is very strong these 2 days. Gynae say I may pop by 37-38wks. so i am already planning to drink 1 bottle every 2 days. just nice finish 10 bottles if I take 6.
I fb COCOMAX to see if we can order 24 bottles for free delivery. cause 1 bottle = 2.5 coconut. so i think it's way cheaper than buying 1 coconut @ same price $1-$1.50.
Will call them ltr.
If 24bottles can free delivery, we just need someone to take the other 6 bottles..
Pre Natal Massage
in SIN, they stop early cause they are not professionals. Only medically trained ppl can massage till delivery. Afterall, no shop/company will take the risk if we run into early labor from massage.
Smilez: snoring will go away once u deliver. it happens cause we have excess bloodflow. and if u sleep in air con, our noses ain't big enough for air to flow through.
dun worry. it's not permanent

Phew – good to know I won’t be snoring nonstop even after birth. Else my hub is going to kick me out of the room. I never had any major snoring issues and always have to deal with hub’s snoring when he’s very fatigued.
Is your BH very strong now? Almost daily? Your next visit should be end of this month? Or next week?
Nattan
I am already sleeping on my side. Maybe my pillow is too soft and low? I shall try propping my pillow higher. I feel bad cos my hub is having chronic neck/shoulder ache and he’s having a hard time sleeping at night so if he sleeps on another mattress, his neck/shoulder feels even worse. But yet he cannot get me to sleep outside cos I’m preggie. LOL!
You must be feeling very stoned with so little sleep last night. Better try to catch up on your sleep tonight then.
Sel
Good that you are feeling better today. Could the iron tablets be too “heaty”?

Petrina, how does your BH feel like? Mine is like a tight feeling.. as if my tummy is being stretched to the max. It's uncomfortable no matter what position I sit or lie down.
Ssmilezz, you can try to prop your head up more? I sleep with 2 pillows, one half propped on the other so it's inclined. So far I don't really snore. I only snored when I was having flu and couldn't breathe properly.
Ya, feeling a bit stoned but hopefully it will go away by lunch time... Anybody wanna have lunch at Raffles City or Bras Basah area?
Sel, iron tablets can cause constipation. Have you tried taking prune juice? it really helps me, as well as plain yogurt. I take both regularly and so far don't experience much constipation.

smilez: the moment i get up to walk, the feeling will start. it's very mild. but daily from 10pm onwards it will be very strong all the way till abt 12mid.
it will start ard 8.30am while i'm on the bus. then occasionally abt once every hour it will have a strong one. then middle occasional mild ones.
I'm quite sure it's not real contractions cause it's bearable for me.
My next appt is 37wks on 26 May. I dun wanna pop so soon. I wanna take HL!! haha
I may get HL from 28 May onwards instead of initial 4th June.. in case I pop early..
Oh ya. i think someone mention abt breathlessness in SMH facebook.. So i recommended sleeping on 2 pillows to help elevate our airway. But for those who need to prop legs to relieve cramps/water retention, it might not be suitable cause we usually toss n turn during sleep. so it's hard to maintain same position throughout the night.
If you dun have legs issue, try sleeping on 2 pillows tonight.

nattan: same. i was describing on FB that it's like trying to inflate a balloon in my tummy.. till i can't breath. then holding the blown up balloon in there for awhile before slowly releasing the air...
i think my BH blown up feeling lasts for about 5-10secs each time.
It doesn't help when the BH comes, baby will kick my cervix as if trying to avoid the balloon.. haha
So i get double trouble.. now at night my hb is very used to be yelling in pain out of a sudden. sometimes if i OWW too long, he'll scold the baby. then she'll stop kicking.
As I'm typing now, my balloon is inflating... baby is tossing left n right as well. luckily i'm seated. otherwise my poor cervix will get it again.
i think my BH blown up feeling lasts for about 5-10secs each time.

nattan: i can meet u for lunch @ RC tomorrow. Now i m feeling abit tight
Petrina, hehe.. thanks for your illustration of an inflated balloon. Mine is different in that my baby doesn't move a lot when it happens, so I get a bit concerned, like is he ok... But he will get back to his usual antics once the BH ends. My BH lasts a lot longer than 5-10s though. I don't really count the duration but it's probably about a minute. I hate it when it happens while I'm walking. Then I really have to slow down and hold onto my tummy while I walk.
Lunch tomorrow is ok

<font color="aa00aa">Wow! Gathering again. I'd love to join but decided against it since I have to control my diet.
vinniesellie,
My gynae told me not to eat whole-<font color="119911">meal</font> bread as it'll break down to flour. Eat whole-<font color="119911">grain</font> instead.</font>

Asrias, I already bought a lot of Goon diapers during the last Gmarket sale I think I should've gotten more S & M sizes as I think my baby is going to be big, so maybe he won't be wearing NB size for long.
If you're feeling breathless, try sitting up and taking some deep breaths or do breathing exercises before sleeping.

nattan: 1min? the real contractions is abt 1min holding then 4mins apart.. this is when u get ur butt to hosp..
maybe i'm bad at counting. haha. i count from the moment the balloon is maxed. not from the blowing up part.
same for the walking part. walk fast then suddenly, i'll have to hold my tummy n slow down. haha
Moi: yup. shld not take wheat. take oats type is better. filling and sugar free.
if u can, best to buy cooking oats n crack an egg into it. mix it up. taste super yummy.. tat was my dieting plan pre preg.
