I bought quite a few different girdles previously. also wondering if I can still reuse them or shld buy new one. haven't weigh myself since last gynae visit (don't dare step on weighing scale!!), dunno if will weigh heavier this time round. will find out tmr. scared sia.
 
I put on too much weight so gynae wants to do blood sugar test next visit. Think I hv been eating too much cheesecakes and brownies :(.

@kopibeanie - ur oats is it instant or rolled ones which require cooking? I tempted to try chia seeds oso ha ha

now doing GTT test. just draw a tube of blood & drank some super sweet sugar solution. need wait another 2hrs to draw the next tube of blood.

feeling hungry & abit nauseous. I need real food!! I also crave for sweet desserts (cakes, brownie, bubble tea etc) after every meal leh. sigh.

I got this instant baby rolled oats from Sheng Siong. instructions say juz add milk can liao.
 
Ok thanks kopi I eat oats daily oso doesn't help much. But it's good for health so I continue w it. Ntuc sells cowhead organic brand now got offer 2 for $4.95 can go take a look if ur stock running low k.

I oso have this craving like must eat dessert after lunch. Think I hv to control this craving :p.

Today I tested my haemoglobin level and it was below 12, so doc gave me iron supplements. It was normal when I tested in first trimester. Think second and third trimester iron levels really need to be upped. I hv to go research how to increase iron intake to ensure bb gets oxygen.

oh yah. I also using the cowhead organic brand. :) I only eat alternate days coz doesn't taste very nice leh. hahah.

I still drink teh C after lunch. take tat as my dessert. hahah.

I was given iron supplements starting from 2nd tri as part of my gynae's standard pkg. also taking dha & calcium.
 
Wah kopi I think yr gynae more careful which is great. I thought multivitamin already has iron but think not enuff.

Joyful mummy my gynae said can take fruits but don't take too sweet ones like watermelon honeydew banana etc too frequently. He still advocates vege cos sugar content low.

Girdle used before pre preg cannot be used after birth cos of the size. I think will be super breathless.
But I saw a few blogs and seems like girdle is a must if you dun want big tummy.

Hello fellow mummies to be~ Am totally new here! Currently in my 27th week!
Unfortunately, i developed rashes over my tummy and it even spread to my legs! Anyone in the same situation as me? >.<
 
Maplephoenix- it was discussed prev that it might be sweat accumulated bw boobs n tummy. Try to wash that area with soup & water and dry completely before you wear ur bra & clothing.
I tried to put hazeline snow after drying, before I put on my clothes.
If rash continue, could be something else. If very terrible, better see gp.

So many of us having lower tummy rash recently, and I thought I was the only one :).

I trying not to scratch too much as worried it might "excite" the uterus too much.

I'm using Clarins cream, find it not greasy and doesn't really give me rash.

Dear mummy to be,

I strongly recommending this stretch mark cream named Mustela. My sis had 2 kids recommended to me and I am currently using (28wk 3 days). From my 3 mth of preg, my tummy already start to crack due to my petite size and I applied on the crack area and I am lazy type few days apply once but as of now my tummy is still in good condition except for tightness of my build but dont hv those ugly darken color stretch mark which I happened to saw on some preggy whose clothings are too short.
 
Hi all I also have rashes since 1 mth ago. .. my gyne advice my to take calomint lotion and cetaphil moisturising lotion. .. but it did not work well. It still very itch ..especially at night time

@kopibeanie - Yeah. But thought of getting since I'm ordering from Amazon. Haha. OK! Save money first.

Thanks!!

Hi queeensg, I am also interested to purchase some baby items from amazon but I don't quite understand how they charge the shipping fees? Does big item (e.g bath tub) worthwhile to purchase from them as I do not know they calculate the shipping fees via weight or size? Beside product price + shipping fees charge in USD, do we need to incur any other fees? Lastly, how long will it takes for us to receive all the items. Thank you.

u shipping direct from amazon (free international delivery if abv usd$125) or thro 3rd party shipping company (eg vpost, etc)?

I don't think bulky items like the bottle warmer qualify for the free amazon delivery leh.

amazon provides free international delivery if u buy abv usd$125 worth of items that are "sold and fulfilled by amazon". most baby books, toys, cloth diapers, breast pump parts, etc. qualify for the free shipping, meaning u only got to pay for product cost.

for items not "sold and fulfilled by amazon" or bulky items, u need to pay additional shipping fee which goes by item (volumetric) weight. will be cheaper if u ship thro' 3rd party companies such as vpost, comgateway, borderlinx, etc. rather than amazon direct. so may not be worth it if u r buying low cost & bulky items such as bath tub.
 
I just saw my eye doctor today and she asked me to laser the hole in my retina otherwise do c sect. I reluctant to do c sect cos prefer natural for both bb n mummy. Feel a bit low ... Have to talk to gynae to see if safe to do laser for eye while preggy.
 
Anyone has ecezma during pregnancy? I realised my skin at both upper both feet and back waist turns dry and it is super itchy.
