i guess it is the pain threshold some pple can take it well and din realised in labour ..by the time realised already passed dunno how many hours lolz
i guess really up to individual body ..how fast they dilute and how fast the body react

agree, my sis felt that the contractions were bearable, felt like bad tummyache... When she reach hospital already 7cm and it went to 10cm pretty quick. Her water bag was burst by her doc.

Since I am the more gungho sister, she felt I can do it without epidural like her. hahaha
She din do laughing gas too, only ask for a fan coz she is too hot. hahhaa
All my colleagues laugh at me, they say u say don't want epidural, when the time come and the pain is unbearable, u will just wack whatever which can ease ur pain.

i actually look forward to natural for #1 but at 38 wks gynae say induce ..and induce = artificially make body to go into labour i dun want so go straight to c sect cos i read when the body is not ready and one induce it will drag even longer ..the stress not necessarily on mom but on baby too so dun wan to put #1 into that stress so C sect heng it was a good move cos gynae say he is big and she got difficulty pulling him out even though C sect ...
and so happened in my nov mummies group got one insist on natural despite warning bb is big and her pelvic did not expand as big as baby ..and nearly got to break bb collar bone bfore she cna come out

anyway it is still up to individual for me ..some will say i choose the easy way out lolz

My biggest worry is also deliver. :p like @PTB7674, my specialist suggest that I go for induce, I worry that it is artificial coz not my bb choose her birth date then I gotta suffer suffer then ended up worst case gotta E C-sect. wow double cost....

I read a news online that a petite mum was carrying a bb too big for her, she wanted C-sect but the doc felt she can pull thru natural. Ended up baby was crush in the process of birth, doc use forceps and stuff like that, and died after delivery, brain damage or something.... very poor thing..

I will go for C-sect if doc say bb to big for natural, it is really a risk.... I just hope I don't need E C-sect... haha
Click to expand...
Oh dear.. that's very sad and scary that this sort of thing can happen.. For me I think I'll just listen to my gynae and trust her.. hubs is also gonna be away on work trip abt three weeks before my edd! :( fingers crossed all goes well!

Mummies my greatest fear is the delivery itself. Going to try for natural with epidural but the thought still scares me.. how do you all overcome this fear? I even have thoughts of having a c section instead..silly right :(
Click to expand...

Abt idea if the taka bb fair this fri carry tommee tippee bottles? Any mummies using tommee tippee or nuk bottles can give some feedback? My #1 is using pigeon but I'm thinking of changing another brand, so it don't get confusing.
Click to expand...

Recently Tommee Tippee is selling very cheaply, even at the bb fair... just wondering why they are selling so cheap...

I was deciding between NUK and Avent but in the end went for Avent cuz got a good deal for the starter set.

Not sure if it will influence your decision making, but TT is Made in China, whereas NUK is Made in Germany. It's my personal choice, but I would avoid MIC products as much as possible.

(FYI if anyone else is interested - Pigeon is made in Thailand, Avent is made in UK).

I let u know at the end of the month... :p though I already bought a lot of Pigeon stuff during their warehouse sale...
 
Btw, just a thought on baby wipes, cuz I collected my NUK wipes last weekend! They are so thick and really very hard to tear! Very good quality and very wet as well! :)

Think will stick to NUK wipes, but will try out Pigeon since I also have a pack of Pigeon bb wipes...

I regretted not getting married earlier too, haha coz when I want to get pregnant then I realize that ttcing is a hard journey.
We enjoyed 4 yrs of courtship and 2 yrs of living together before having this bb. She is our next milestone in life. :)
My hub and myself are really looking forward to this next big step, felt that it makes our family complete.

Was really miserable when I was ttcing last yr...

Maybe not blaming. .

Sometimes when no ones help me i also feel very depressed n why i have kids so early etc.

But then in our pak tor times i already keep wishing we faster save enough $$$ n get married n have kids so kids n our age gap not too big...

But after having kids = sacrifice our time n energy. . Sometimes we dun get appreciated by hubby too... coz to men loooking after kids is women job.

Maybe we should all be contented cause it seems the grass is always greener on the other side.

I see young couples having kids early but quarrel all the time.
Older couples lament about how difficult it is to conceive but their relationship with each other is strong.
In the end, we should just make the most out of whatever situation we are in.

we thought not bad for a first timer. my friend took 4-5 hr, another colleague took a good 12 hr. both of them with epidural.

20mins is record time! tt means u can tahan the contractions?
my sis contractions started about 5 hrs before her delivery, she was at home and thought its just stomache. haha
Click to expand...

I just tahan and also coz hubby was late. Ask me to wait 20 mins came 2 hours later
