I think cos I stopped drinking water after 9pm. It is a rare occurrence for me to not wake up and pee at night. I hope it will carry on! Yes baby moves when I wake up. Or maybe it's cos he moved that's why I wake. Haha.

I also sometimes get the numbing fingers feeling... will open and close my palm to exercise it to make the pins and needles feeling go away...

Anyone got swollen feet? Sigh sometimes by end of day, mine look like pig trotters!! Haha.

Yeah I am worried about baby popping too soon cos will be so ex in icu and also will worry abt baby's condition. But the bump is getting so tiring to move around! So hard to get comfy at night. Sigh!

Wah, you all EDD later than me already so prepared. Mine clothings not totally washed. Only standard stuff like towel, tops, swaddle yes. Hospital bag what to pack? I also don't really have much to pack. Just pads? And maybe a set of clothes to wear when I discharge right? And a set of baby clothings.

http://iwannaspree.com/blog/sharing-about-medela-pumps.html

i m also deciding between medela PISA or freestyle and came upon this website.

I quote the author, "As a user of both pumps, I can vouch that the suction is different. The PISA is gentler and drags longer as compared to the Freestyle. It is also heavier, larger and not portable, hence, you have to be rooted to one spot for the entire pumping session."

Also, another difference, other than the already-mentioned in terms of size and price and portability, i also found out that Freestyle got dual voltage and can be directly plugged into the local sockets with the help of a 2 pin adapter. For the Pump in Style Advanced (PISA) model, you will need to purchase an additional converter which supports 220V input to 9V output, otherwise the motor will blow once it is plugged into our sockets.

I am deciding between buying a Medela US set without warranty or buying from here with warranty. Big price difference leh. Any thoughts ladies?

If you are buying Freestyle partly because of its handsfree capability that comes in the package, beware when you purchase especially from Mothercare. Medela website advertised that the Freestyle package comes with the belts and clips but some versions do not. It is misrepresenting and inconsistent. So just look out if that is a concern to you. US versions could also have different contents in the box.

Thanks for the advice. I was told something similar when I enquired about the PISa saying that some sets the breast shields are silicon and some are plastic. And these are sets with Singapore warranty.

It's very disappointing given the amount of credibility people place on Medela and the price it charges. Inconsistent and dishonest and refusing to take responsibility of it. Some other contents in the Freestyle versions are also different other than the clips and belts. So depending on what is important to you, check the contents carefully before you pay the hefty amount for it.
