Hi everyone
I also bought 3 pieces from ASOS, abt one mth ago, haven arrived yet, still waiting.
I'm not doing confinement, but i guess i'm the only one here not doing. I'll be getting a maid, planning to get one from Myanmar. So i hope i get a good one, and she n mummy can help me with the baby. Anyone knows of good agency or every agency is the same?
My #1, i do not have pimples too, but i gained like 30kg. Now i also noticed that my tummy has hair now, along the linea nigra line. I haven been dropping hair yet (touch wood).
My parents are staying with me, but i still haven told them of my pregnancy, i hope to keep the secret till 18 weeks when i need to start the noisy baby plus. haha
Baby movement: i thought i felt some movements and a kick the other day while lying down, online they say that you might b able to feel as early as 13wks, but most feel from 16-25wks. i'm 13 plus wks today

Hi fabbie / iko
my mil says that she's fine with sleeping with my sil (since it's only for one month). I feel kinda bad...
my bro also warned me about "ordering" my mil around. He strongly encouraged me to get a CL, even though my place has very limited space... My mil did suggest for me to return to my mum's place for confinement. but that will be worse cos my mum is those very traditional confinement type of lady...
i guess i will have to decide fast if i do want a good CL. i heard that those good ones needs advance booking...
haiz... my hubbs told me that his view is that it's not necessary... but if i want one, he's okay with it as well...

I want to buy maternity clothes frm ASOS too!
For those who have bought from ASOS, can I ask how you gauge your size? Coz nw I am still wearing my normal clothes but waist, armpits and cheat areas are getting tight. Tummy is not so noticeable yet (originally already have tummy so maybe bb bump not so obvious yet). I am usually a UK10/12 for ASOS stuff...so shld I buy ASOS maternity clothes in UK10/12 or move up 1 size? I think I cant wear my normal clothes for much longer....getting abit uncomfy esp. my working clothes. intend to go AMK hub tonight to see some maternity clothes. hehe.
Hi mummies,

So worry and oso kam cheong now...
Cold drink:

Rach : wow the ASOS maternity clothes look nice lor! Thanks for the tip keke. Yeah H&M got selection of maternity clothes also, though not much. I bought a maternity leggings 2 weeks ago.
JC: I intend to diy confinement also. Maybe my mother in law might help a bit but we din check with her yet. Then my mom is too old le and she don't cook also. I share the same sentiments that I find it uncomfortable to have another stranger in the house with me. My first time also so not sure whether able to cope haha.
nlimm: Read from somewhere some women might grow more hair during pregnancy, I just happened to notice like got a trail of thin thin hairs above my belly button >.< I wish it's more hair on my head though.
fabbie: I also thinking if possible buy those dresses that I can still wear after delivery, but 3rd trimester when you are quite big what kind of clothes you wear huh? Since tummy quite big liao then normal clothes will be too tight.

my mum cant do for me bcos her health conditions doesnt allow it to... but she will nitpick on a lot of stuff and i think she's those who doesnt allow me to bathe too! so i rather do at my mil place, my hubbs says my mil is okay with me doing normal stuff...
ya lo! i feel bad for 'not giving face' to my mil.. she says she'e okay to do for me if i want her to. but on the other hand, just afraid of conflicts and dont know whether i can "close one-eye"...

Hi everyone!
Been a while since I came in here due to terrible MS. Now in 15th week finally feeling better. Yesterday brought #1 out to the new mall Star Vista and he was so happy. Guess it's because we haven't brought him out together (both daddy & mommy) for a very long while as I was really feeling terrible.
seeing gynae next monday. hopefully can know the gender. baby please be co-operative ok!
tsm: yup my CL asked me to help her do the work permit. I looked through MOM website it's quite easy and can just do online.
baby movement: already felt some movement but not very strong kicks or punches. this time round seems to feel earlier compared to #1
shopping: now that i'm feeling better and xmas coming, I been buying and buying LOL. hubby keeps nagging but I don't care. Going to look at ASOS too!

Oh my, i just checked my ASOS order details, i ordered on the 17/10/12 they say shipped on 18/10/12. Y haven reach me yet, it's almost a mth, haha. Mayb lost in the mail. for 3 dresses i spent $164 SGD.... Abit ex right
nlimm...
but it will mean that my hubbs will not be coming over to stay with me during the 1 month of confinement. cos there's no place for him... haiz... i wish things are that easy...
my mum isnt a easy lady to deal with... i changed 6 maids within two years just bcos she 'nagged' them, find them unsuitable... my record was 3 days and the maid simply gave up cos my mum was 'reprimanding' her so much that she couldnt take it....
That's why my choice is really to take my MIL or have a CN over at my MIL's place...

just to check:
wat does a CL do? will she help me wash all my clothes (including lingerie)? cook? bathe baby and burp baby after i finish bf-ing the baby?
my mil and hubbs asked me what exactly does a CL do cos they nv experienced it before... I guess CL wakes up for night feeds, so that i dont have to? And then wash all the stuff properly so that i dont have to?
as for cooking, does she tell us what she wants to cook and we buy the ingredient? or we give her money and she will go marketing herself...

Foolforlove, basically CL is a 24 hour service
mine will cook, clean my room and baby room (live in a 3 storey house so she only clean my room and baby room). CL also will wash baby's clothes. If possible and you need CL to wash your own clothes, can also request because I had helper during #1. I also make CL wash bottles as we should try not to touch so much water during confinement. Other than that, they should cook for the mummy and themselves too. But grocery shopping normally not done by them. Most importantly is them taking care of bb at night! My CL burp baby for me as I didn't latch. I always pump and feed via bottle/cup. For me, my MiL can't help much due to age and my mum is working, so my hubby will support me if I want a CL. Getting a CL depends on you too. My friend coped well without one as her hubby hands on, cook and take care of bb.
Sometimes they will tell you what to buy and will cook accordingly. But mine asked me what I like/disliked. I don't know how to eat pig trotters so CL didn't cook that for me and used more pork meat instead.

fabbie: read that u had dory dish during confinement. please do not eat that fish for your 2nd confinement ok. dory fish are not good fish. they are chemical overloaded. why i know, because my hub is in seafood line.
during confinement, just take cod fish or threadfin.
during confinement, just take cod fish or threadfin.
on what a CL will do during that one month.
i list down what i remember okay.
1. bath baby in the morning
2. prepare breakfast for the mother
3. feed and burp baby
3. change the bedsheets for baby every week
4. handwash baby clothes (separately)
5. cook lunch for mother
6. wipe dry baby during even time
7. bring baby to mother for bf when necessary
8. brew tonics/soups
9. prepare bath herbs for mother to bath
10. light housework e.g clean & mop floor
11. wash mother clothes (EXCLUDING underwear, most CL do not help to wash underwear cos consider dirty, so during the one month i wear disposable).
12. wash & sterilize pumps parts/bottles
13. feed & burp baby during middle of the night.
14. some CL also cook for family members.
15. help to prepare full month stuff e.g red eggs etc
above are all those that i remember
but what CL doesnt do
1. wash mother underwear
2. If somebody can go market, ingredients usually buy by that person, otherwise CL can tag alone. usually dont pass money to CL to let them go out.
and of cos, i do allow my CL to take naps in the afternoon when baby is napping too.
hope above helps

tsm: from what i know if u get CL from outside source, rates are probably around $2K -2.2
agency CL are $2.3 and that is excluding levy that u need to pay, if i am not wrong 28 days is $168.
and above is excluding the opening & closing ang bao that u need to give to the CL.

fabbie: xue yu is cod fish. but its not the read cod fish. real cod fish is called gindara.
apparently in the market is all selling the cod fish 'cousin', a different kind of fish which looks like cod fish.
threadfin is called 'ngor hee' in hokkien. usually confinement we take that fish. eat until vomit kind lor..

dory fish is those u eat fish & chip right?
cod fish must see properly..some are 'fake' one..can lead to indigestion
BKNN : i think lemon ginger tea can help reduce blood sugar. I had very sinful dinner on Tuesday than drank the tea..my reading was normal. Yesterday i walked 30 mins but the reading was high. Drank some tea, and the reading dropped 3 points in 15 mins.
dont know if it is coincident ...i will try to monitor a few days.

Hi ladies
I'm new to this thread and hopes to share my joy and 'problems' here too.
My edd is on 24th may 2013. My gynae is Dr Kenneth Edward Lee from Mt Alvernia. He told me I can choose to deliver in Gleneagles if I want to but of cos he prefers MA. I prefer gleneagles as my 1st pair of twin babes are delivered there.
Just went for Oscar test today and looks ok as explained by the radiographer.
Hv been staying with my mil ever since 2008 as she's helping to do confinement for my twins. And I seriously regretted not to having a confinement lady as I couldn't rest. So for this pregnancy, I thght of having one but mil objected... Will see how things goes as I also hv a helper at home already...
