Whiteclover, am going back to work on 25th Feb as com now quite shorthanded. I'm sure going to miss bonding time with bb.
75ml is to give till how old? I'm wondering if I shld bring her go see a pte pd or not. Cos the pd KKH assigned only scheduled us to go back in early march to do renal ultrasound and 6-1 shot. A bit concern if she is growing well or not.
Bbshower, the weight is an estimate of head circumference, abdominal circumference and length of leg bone. Different sonographer and ultrasound machine does give different measurement. Mine was also off. Scan shows 2.4kg but actual is 2.6kg. Have u discussed ur birth plan with ur doc? Maybe u can discuss with him in ur next appt and see if he has an concerns.

Ladies, can i check what brand and where and the price of the cot that you get for your lil one? This is really one item that dh and i still cant settle...
Also let me know if the price of cot includes mattress. Thanks in advance.
Hope, that depends on how long you can tahan that flu bug. If realli bugging u badly and causing u to feel very sick, then better not wait till tues in case it get worse. Cos for me flu will usually leads to coughing.
See you all getting worried with baby's weight...now i start to panick. Mine is 2.3kg at 29weeks and lately eating and eating... Realli worried hows the weight in my next fri appt. although dr loh said can natural, but was telling dh if too big, i also scared no strength to push then end up emergency csection,...if thats the case, i rather opt csect. Looks like i must realli discuss with dr loh.
Btw strep b test is done from week 35? Not earlier? Say week 33?

bbshower and kitykathy,
I did a scan at week 32 (now into week33) my bb only 1.7kg leh.. doctor said got to eat more as expected weight should be ard 1.8-1.9kg. But he did some blood flow scan just to check if it's due to blocked blood flow but everything is alright. He did said that though bb is skinny but got progress so it's ok. He also said my weight didn't increase much (supposed to put on 1kg per 2 weeks for mother).
Think I just have to eat more.
Recently, I get hungry easily. I would wake up in middle of night to have light snacks. Do you all have this issue?

My MIL ask me to go her house to do confinement and my maid can help her out and learn how to take care bb too. But I have already booked (and placed deposit) this malysian confinement lady (free lance) last Oct... How to tell this lady that I would not be needing her service? Sure she'll consficate the deposit but what to do...

babysmurf> heehee...dun be scared lar...hospital sure got nurses around...
Hi Girlgirl, thanks for the update...will ask TPS staff next week during my checkup on matenrity packages. I agree with you on choosing A ward (that is if my babies don't come pre-term else the ICU cost will be sky high). Not only husband can stay over but quality of food is diff from B1. Some more with 2 babies, better to have my own room. In fact if you go MOH website, you will see that most pp choose A class ward for delivery when it comes to KKH.
Hi Babysmurf, the insurance we bought from GE Is very limited in terms of payout...also only for certain classes for NICU is covered. There is also a cap. Hence, if baby comes pre-term or there are complications, I think no matter how need to find a way to opt for C class ward as baby hospitalisation fees tagged to the ward we choose.
Hi Reikibaby, I am choosing the cot from Puku Singapore (if you look for this on Facebook and like it), you can see that there is a promo for their 5 in 1 cot at $459 by Moms and me at the Yishun baby shop I mentioned earlier. It includes latex mattress, 7 pc bedding set and free delivery+installation. Bed can be used till kid is 4-6yrs according to them. They will be holding this price at the Babyfair in Feb 2013 so you might want to check out the cots at the fair then?
HI Znatasha, I guess it is unavoidable to avoid the loss of the deposit if you decide to do away with the CL as the CL would have turned down other jobs for that month. Or maybe you could have both your MIL and CL to help out...there is never such a thing as too much help right?

Znatasha, u prefer mil or the CL for confinement? Or just tell mil that you already pay deposit n non refundable. I do hv frens who hv conflict w mil during confinement. The most get ur cl to teach ur maid. Mil can also pop by in the day. My mum doing confinent for me. Though she prefers i go over her pl but i told her i feel mre comfy at own home. Already confinement can be stressful...so i prefer stay at own home at least more comfortable and no need bring barang barang ard. Thats my opinion. What your dh says?

Znatasha - yr mil knows what to do for confinement? For u and baby? If CL is around, u don't need to worry abt how to take care. That was what happened to my sis. Mil said no need... Then in the end mil forgot how to look after infant and complain tiring. So last min, they had to get a CL.
Better think twice before canceling.
Better think twice before canceling.
Znatasha, ya think it is better to keep the CL like what Whiteclover said. In case MIL decided after 1 week that it is too tiring and forgot what to do. Also if she has not looked after an infant in recent years (i.e. for her other children), it could be more than 30 years ago that she took care of infants! Lots of things have changed by now!
As for me, I'm lagi worse! I realised that I've become more firm with what I want since getting pregnant. I know that my MIL, who leaves overseas, wants to be around after the birth. But I also know that she won't be much help, so I told my DH that I prefer that his parents come to Singapore after baby's 1 month for the 1 month celebration. I'm just worried I can't cope with motherhood, fatigue, baby, my mum and his mum all at the same time! The last thing I want is post natal depression. Thank goodness, my DH is understanding and agrees. He told his parents and to my delight, they agreed too!! LOL!

znatasha,
i had my mum to do my first confinement and she had not taken care of a baby for 30 over yrs and it really became a very stressful time for both her and me, and i couldn't get much rest.... somemore it's your MIL so sometimes it's not easy to be so frank in communication... she can be around during ur confinement but at least u can have ample rest. there's never too much help during confinement. of course, having CL can have its own set of problems esp if the CL did not perform to your expectations.

Been craving for breads and the tot of chinese food turns me off. Just had subway but just feel yucky after eating. Haha..
Koirc, hope, d you feel your 3rd trimester appetite not as great anymore. Feel like im in the 1st trimester where food is no longer appealing. Eating for the sake of feeling full. Esp when i dun hv strong cravings. Just knw what i can swallow what i cant. Last night before sleep, vomited my dinner.

Hi ReikiBaby: Yup. Dr Loh said is bb Is heavy for 27 weeks at 1.5kg. Should only be 1.2kg. So, I was advised to cut down on sweet stuffs and no durian. And, next check up go for GD test. Same thought will take tonic once a month instead of twice a month; feeling very exhausted lately too.
Have you found your baby cot? There s quite a lot of choices at Baby Hypermart & Baby Kingdom at Kaki Bukit Industrial Park

Hi all I went for scan on 29 jan. Thank God I can see the baby yolk sac and heartbeat. My baby is now at around 6 week. Next week I will see my doctor again.
I am now currently under KK hospital mr Tan HH. I found he is nice and handsome but very busy. Anybody knows whether the IVF doctor automatically becomes the gynae till delivery? Or is it better to switch to a non-IVF gynae? Cos IVF doctors are really busy in IVF stuffs. Dun know whether they can be a responsible gynae or not? Any suggestion?
Thank you
