Cindy: yes mar 09. so any idea bull n dragon can click?
Oh dear my #1 is the slowest diaper trained for 09 babies. actually he can do it n know how to tell but the. Problem is he is very stubborn n refuse not to wear diaper. he can control his bladder. his teacher said he will give her a black face whenever she reminded him to visit the toilet. I tried letting him watch youtube videos on wee wee but din work too. I suspect he is insecure when he without the diaper.

Jo's mommy: I'm Cindy han!!
hahah.
Porky, beloved and Jo's mummy: each child has their own learning pace.
boys are indeed slower. My boy only was day time trained at 3 yrs and night time off at 3.5 yrs. but for my girl, she was actually quite quick to be day time off around 2.5 yrs... Just that she's also insecure without diaper, every night she'll say she needs the diaper!
Hui: hahah thank you for the assurance!!

Piggiedearz, cheer up! When I was having terrible MS & admitted so many times, I also nearly wanted to give up! But when see my baby during scans, my heart melts & love the baby more!
It's just a phase due to your hormones, you'll be better before u know it
Pinky, I've attached a pic of a pregnancy pillow

Its has been so many mths ever since i log in SMHF..Kind of miss the days discussing the progress,the stages of pregnancy.By the way,hi nov 12 mummies! Im littlebb from Nov 11 mummies.My son is 6months old now,he is a healthy and loving boy.Motherhood is amazing! Need any advices,feel free to pm me
I agreed with mummies that some bb is fast and some is slow so do not compare,do not add stress on u and bb too.
At the current stages most of u are curious abt gender,me too at tat time.My pregnancy is a tough one,fm the begining till the end is so suffering.Even labour i almost lost my life! So now if u ask me to try for the second i will say kill me! I know every pregnancy is different bt maybe nt at the moment! Btw i kw my gender of my bb at 14 weeks that im expecting a boy.

Dadnmum, my morning sickness got better but still have excessive salivation which makes me nausea. Vomitting is off and on. Based on Oscar , gynea says I am 17w3d when I visited him this wednesday . Edd now around 28/10/12.
I give up ... I think this excessive salivation may continue till delivery . Really hates it. .. Keep on spitting , people may think I no manners.
I keep having the weird taste in my mouth too, anyone having this problem?

Piggiedearz.. Yup from week 7 to week 10 I was in really bad state.. Vomit everything incl water until vomit blood also.. I was super dehydrated.. My husb rush me to hosp, they put me on drips & they will inject the medicine for vomiting & gastric into the drips. Since its direct into veins, it works faster & better. When on drips, I can finally eat & drink. Like this i was admitted thrice (once every week, for 2-3 days).. It helps cos it breaks the dehydration cycle. This kind of admission u can just go to KK, it's cheaper & they're expert.
After week 10, gynae prescribed the Zofran & i took 1 pill everyday & it helped to control my nausea & vomiting. So I could eat & drink enough not to get dehydrated. But appetite still not too good.
After week 12, I switch to Ondaestron which helped the same way. I took the pill only when throw up.
Now at week 15 & getting better. Past 4 days i stopped taking the nausea pill & managed to eat without throwing up. Nausea is light & only sometimes. So it really helps to break the dehydration cycle to stop the nausea & vomiting.
You can try TCM too, my gynae did recommend TCM acupuncture which might help but I didn't go.
If TCM doesn't help too, u should consider getting admitted & go on drips. It helps.
How many weeks are u now?
Don't stay alone at home, it's depressing! Get friends or relatives to come & talk about other stuff & cheer u up. It really helps to distract your mind & feel better

piggiedearz, its probably your hormones that making u go through all the emotional rollercoaster...all children all gift from god, so treasure them when we have it, some cant even have.one true storie about my sis in law, she had ovarian cancer when she was a teenager, she recovered from it but half of her ovary was gone..so its even harder for her to concieve...and she really wanted to have a baby,so she went to try for IVF even though there's a risk that her cancer might reoccur...hank god, 2nd try she managed to concieve one child..personally, i tink she is very brave...
lalaa, the prenancy pillow looks comfy, let me know when u got it! i previously got a back support cushion dun seem to work..
everyone commented my tummy is showing faster than my 1st..i look like a big balloon now! gain about 4-5 kg since then...my first i gain about 13 kg plus but lost even more than the weight i gain after birth due to breastfeeding... hopefully this time, it will also b the same..
went for my 16th week scan yesterday, baby not cooperative keep showing us the back..i can only see the backbone...so no choice have to wait till the DS den can see the gender loh...

Piggiedearz, yes I have smell & taste aversions too! just try to avoid those smells.. Until now certain foods I still have strong aversion, just avoid.
U can just walk in to the 24 hr clinic at KK basement & tell them your pregnant & vomiting is quite bad. They will do a urine test to check your dehydration level. Then wait to see the doctor & they will check how bad is your condition. If its not too severe, they will just recommend outpatient drips & u don't have to get admitted. If really bad, then they will admit u.
The nurse will then advise u the room charges, if u want to save money, just take non-aircon 6 bedder (air con wards are too cold for me anyway). It'll be covered by Medisave.. We hardly come out cash from pocket.
When I was admitted to Raffles the first time, end up paying almost 1K from our pockets.. Heart pain!

Hi lalaa thanks so much for the info, much appreciated. I went tcm tdy and was told my gastric n liver a bit heaty so can cause all d extra nausea n loss of appetite. Told them all my symptoms n he gave me some herbs to tiao my gastric. Say once gastric is ok, appetite n nausea shd improve. Hope will work.

Hi twinkle24, when i had my #1 I had a stay in confinement lady recommended by my relative. But it was a very bad experience with her. She damaged my stove, there were lots of lizards ard the kitchen when she was here. She discouraged breastfeeding and insisted that baby had formula during the nite. I hated it when she kept saying my milk was not thick and I dun have much milk. But the truth was, I stored at least >2 bottles of breast milk in the freezer every time, I suspected she was lazy to heat up the milk for baby.
Worse of all, she talked bad about my inlaws in front of my mum. And made my mum and my hubby quarreled. She also had a lot of requests when she was here like going out to shop in the day and left me and baby alone at home. She brought my hubby to the medical shop to buy tonics worth a lot of $, but in the end we realized that she did not cook a lot of tonic soup for me. So where did all the tonics gone too? Anyway it was hell for my family and everyday I was counting down to her last day. Strange that when she did confinement at my relative's place, my relative did not have much problem with her. It's not I fussy, as we were already very 'ching cai' with her. After this experience, this time round I intend not to have any confinement lady but will order tingkai from NatalEssential. I rather take care of baby myself this time then have a stranger mess up relationships of my family.
Maybe it's just me having a bad experience, maybe the rest of the mummies would like to share your good experience for encouragement to the rest. Basically, getting a good confinement lady depends a lot on luck.

hi beloved, i got a msian CL when i had my #1. she is v friendly, hardworking and cook nice food. for the first 2 weeks she is v good and anxious abt baby whenever he cried..the third week i realise she is slightly slow in her work cos mil too free everyday chat w her and even teach her to buy 4D ! so when my baby slp, both "old woman" will sit in the living room sofa to watch tv and chat/discuss abt what numbers to buy..mil is staying w me but dint do confinement for me cos she say she is not experience in this area so hb decided to engage a CL for me...time round i still cant decide if to get a day time CL or just order tingkat like u as i do not want such issue to happen again...
