totorodino: You should tell her--> Yeah I float to the toilet and back that's why you didnt notice lo.
I know how it feels... My weight jumped by 3kg from last month and baby gained 1kg plus. Gyne told me to reduce carbohydrates, increase meat and veg intake. Now officially gained 10kg already kanna warning liao.
Now I reduce my carbo by half and chew very slowly so that I will feel full..
linxiaober: never buy from watson before so not sure the quality.
I got this colleague.. who keeps touching my tummy.. and everytime bb kicks, she will think its because bb likes her.. actually i wanted to tell her: its bb don't like you that's why kicking to tell u to stop touching.
Hahahah, very evil of me hor...

Febie,
Haha. U all dun wear gstrings at all? I am nt the odd one out here ba? =x
Xiaober,
U dun nd to worry abt whether u have dilated or nt. 1st time mummy can take a long time to dilate over days or even weeks. if u have contractions with backache, time it. If its regular for over a period of time then u sld head to the hosp. U sld be monitoring ur contractions as its the best indication of when u sld head to hosp.
Ankh,
Hahaha!! U r cheeky and notti! =p
Pinky,
The blue waterproof mat sld be available from hosp phamacy.
Same la. I set 10kg target but looks like gg to burst. Set at 12-15kg nw >_<
Mush,
So gd only gained 300g for 3weeks. I think i easily gain 500g per week. Haha.

Re: blue water proof sheets
this can be bought at pharmacies like Guardian, Watsons.. cheaper. some moms put this sheets under their bedsheets how just in case the water bag burst.
Val, i dunno leh.. my #2 is a bit sick.. yesterday he cried until he puked when i left the car. today he is much better but i caught him gagging and trying to force it out of his mouth. grah! who are u on FB? i cannot guess leh.. i got a shock of my life when i saw so many mommies.. all foreign to me.
Everybody is teasing Val for wearing g-string!! hehehe..
i have ppl trying to molest my tummy too. very irritating.. usually i will do the same and touch their tummies.. most of them will get a shock and jump back.
Mummychua, get better soon so u can join us on Friday! who else wanna join us let us know and we will add u into the what's app chat.
Thank you all for the information.
Ankh: haha.. I like the way u describe queens, cow & maid...so funny. Moo...
Re: Herbs
Not too sure which herbs but I will stop drinking; play safe since I am not those with strong health as I am very sensitive to such stuffs. Recall Mrs Wong BB from TMC mentioned it in her class too.
Oh ya, another friend advise me to drink a bottle of chicken essence b4 admitting to hospital for delivery too..to have energy to push. Think better seek doc approval first....
Re: Disposable underpad sheet
I have bought the waterproof blue disposable sheet from guardian;$3plus per pack of 10.
Kiddy palace do sell but if I m not wrong its more expensive however seems thicker..
Re: Waxing/Shaving
Nah, not going; risk of contractions. think either shave or let doc /nurse see "BUSHES". Heard from friend, the nurse will help us shave on the deliver day.
Re: Baby fair
I will going down on sat after my check up. Will be getting pampers, baby toiletries, nursing bra, nipple cream& etc.
Mummies going down on fri or alone, please do not overbuy till too heavy to carry...not wise for mummies to carry heavy stuff unless u have someone to pick u or help u carry the things. Happy shopping
Re: Baby Shampoo & wash
I will be getting Johnson or Kodomo. Try first..anyway, hospital usually used these brands to bath babies too. They have this all in one type (hair & body) & no need rinse i think.
Re: Maternity pad.
Seriously i have no idea how to use the loop. Also, confirm will leak if no wings for me..i move a lot when i sleep.
Furthermore, its so thick....guess i will stick to normal sanitary pad ,if there is balance, i still can use after that.
Re: Baby Clothes detergents & bottle washing detergents
Which brand is good?
Re: Pampers
Which brand is good?
Shall i use lousier brand for day time & goods ones for night? or use average brand for both day & night ? or what other suggestions?
hello train lover! my left leg, at the fold between knee and calf, back of leg, also developed a patch of redness, skin is dry, but not itchy, no feeling, so it doesn't really bothers me, except when I wear shorts/Bermuda, then its obvious.hello mummies.

Hello gingerbreadhouse! Welcome back.Hi mummies, im new in this thread and would like to join in this group to get to know all mummies here. It's been a long time since I last login here. Im currently expecting my #3. Hope to make new friends with mummies here.
J & J tend to dry the skin, so be careful, do not add too much into the water, actually bb are very clean, even if you just use warm water, without any soap is fine for the beginning. I used too much J & J during my #1 time, and he has very rough and dry skingwenngann - wa, that's really good. u only gained 7kg so far! I hope i had control myself over the last mth....cries!
Hello gingerbread! Welcome here! when ur due date?
Xiaober87, i intending to handwash actually. Is tedious so i give some to my mum to help me to wash. I bought maternity pad from Pureen but is without wings. Think all e maternity pads r without wings. I dunno i will leak anot lo since im like flip like roti prata when sleeping. lol..
Attigal & little prince, thanks for info. I tink i jus buy e kodomo & J&J bb shampoo and bath separately. Try to use e cheap one 1st see bb can take it. So ex to buy all e bb stuff....
Val, fb shld b e name that aldy tells? I tink my 2nd child muz set a higher target..at least i wont feel so demoralised & upset when i burst my target! haha
Ya, i tried G-string once but i felt soooooo uncomfortable! Yes right someone describe as the string crack middle of e butt or something.. exactly! So i prefer to wear normal panties. I only use it for "special" moments.... hahaha.. =p
J & J tend to dry the skin, so be careful, do not add too much into the water, actually bb are very clean, even if you just use warm water, without any soap is fine for the beginning. I used too much J & J during my #1 time, and he has very rough and dry skin
#2 time, I used catephil & lactacyd baby bath.
Mt A provide the blue waterproof sheet to place on the bed, I think everyday they will replenish, but should be in the hospital bill.
Yoz! Thanks everyone for the support so far!Glad to have joined this forum to share and rants! Thanks for the listening ears and the comfort words too
Was at the gynea yday for week35 checkup. Good news is baby has turned head down!! super happy! Finally able to booked the hospital package for normal delivery. I've gained almost 2kgs for the past 3 weeks and only 700g goes to bb. He is now approx. 2.58kg! I'll see my gynea every week from this stage onward.
@fuzzybear , Gynea said she is able to do the ligation the next day after natural birth in the hospital however this will lead to higher chance of getting pregnant at 2%. Alternative, I can do the ligation 1 mth later and the chances of getting pregnant is reduced to 1%. I was thinking to do it one shot (during the hospital stay) since Gynea said it's only about 3 stitches near my belly button area. However, hubby said I should only do this after I recovered from the delivery..... now thinking should I or should I not...
@xian, I think is normal to feel really sleepy at 3pm+. Looks like most of us do doze off during this magic hour!
@pinky, 4kg is really alot!! I once put on 3kg within a month I also wanted to faint liao. Got terrified and on diet after that.
@gwen, actually I don't understand Y muz wait till bb pop then can fix bed huh? It makes no sense. should get really everything & welcome the bb mar.. but if your MIL insist, just ask your hb get ready everything for u lor
@Xiaobei87, I'd hand wash them myself. Can't really trust my maid to do a good job for newborn as she tends to do things in a super "chinchai" mode. Either machine wash or hand wash, both equally clean bah. it's really up to individual in my opinion.
@totorodino , I guess you're next on the line! 16 Oct is just around the corner! Woo hoo!! feel so excited for u! Have you all set??
@ankh , great illustration there! when pregnant with #1, I was the QUEEN too! 1st bb came out got demoted to Panda. Now with #3 in tummy, QUEEN has left and I have become Cinderella turning myself to princess only after wee hour in a dream LOLz!!!
disposable undies, I also got mine at watson during 1 for 1 sales too. It's Cotton & stretchy type. I took the XL size as my butt is Humongous at this stage..... and talking abt G-strings I think Ill sure look like "Sumo" if I put it on now
Baby Clothes detergents - I used ABD powder. Like the smell and it does clear stains
Bottle washing detergents - I bought pigeon
Diapers - I bought pampers NB for nights. Plan to use clothes nappy in the day.
and Welcome Gingerbreadhse! Here's got few mummies expecting #3. When will you due?
For those mummies with younger children, do take care ya! HFMD is really awful.
re: tonic in the last month
i remember i saw it somewhere that one of the mummies mention that should not take tonic during the last month before edd right? is it true? cos when i went for lelian class she got mention abt it also.. she say its not recommended especially if going for natural.. but i believe my in-laws will ask me to take.. so i thinking if should take or not..
hello mommies! hope all of you had a good lunch.
I thought the tonics refer to ginseng all that? thought bird's nest still ok to drink. i only have two weeks left, so desperately trying to finish my bird's nest.
momnov, y is there a 2% risk of getting pregnant if you do ligation 1 day after natural delivery? did your gynae explain y?
mumagain, haha you also so funny. now i don't even have cinderalla dreams anymore hahahaha.
Previously when i quoted my friend's NRIC for cordlife (#1's time), neither of us received the $100 vouchers loh. so pissed. and we were all too busy to follow up also. GRR. so i find cordlife's admin process very sucky.
Yesterday saw Mark Lee (Guo Huang) driving his car out of my son's school. Think he recently just started sending his two kids to the school cos never see him before that. Saw his wife the other day. My hb said y we copy him in everything, gynae also the same. I'm like duhhh -.-!!!. Our son started in the school even before Mark Lee loh and we only saw the picture of him and wife in our gynae's clinic when we first saw our gynae in 2010 ...

SN, hm, same kids' school n Gynae as mark Lee. He has 3 kids leh. ;p
Pinky, u were the one with sprained ankle right? See if u can wear an ankle guard for next few months. I used to sprain both ankles at different times in upper primary for 2-3 yrs period. Once sprained ankle may need some time to strengthen again. Some more now with pregnancy hormones, our ligaments are still loose.
Momnov, this morning in a 45 nap I actually dreamt of my ex bf! Weird hahahahahaha!
So tired now, dunno how I'm going to shop at expo tomorrow. Think I really will bring my little trolley w me into expo. Realised I still got quite a lot of little barang barang to buy.
Welcome train lover, gingerbreadhouse, xiaobei87.
Xiaobei87, u really born in '87? Same age as my younger bro, now I feel so old lol!
Twinnie: i think the concern is more on bb's size.. my MIL also said don take too much tonic.. bb will be too puu and will be big.. so we will have a hard time pushing... i donno how true.. juz passing down from some aunties.. lolz...yup, i heard about it also, from which week onwards do we stop eating birds nest? and what's the reason why we shouldnt be taking it during the last month before edd?
ankh, I didn't know Mark Lee has three kids! I only saw two kids in his car and my gynae's clinic only has pictures of his #1 and #2. I heard from my friend that his wife had problem conceiving initially, that's y they went to see my gynae who specialises in infertility. sounds like they have been very productive since then. LOL. btw, I'm not having a third kid!!!!!!
yunzz, yup it's Pats at Halifax. But I only saw two kids in his car. haha.
Funshine Bear is the name of the class at Pats Halifax that my son is in. Every class at Pats has a name eg. Harmony Bear, Funshine Bear, Jokey Smurf etc. Your kids' class has no name? Cannot be leh. I'm at Pats Baby Haven (Halifax 1,3). You are at the other Pats at Halifax 9 issit?
They just got 3rd daughter 1 month ago, and had a 1 month celebration which cost $20K at a hotel recently. My friend did their balloons design, so she posted on FBankh, I didn't know Mark Lee has three kids! I only saw two kids in his car and my gynae's clinic only has pictures of his #1 and #2.
