Where about ?
 


Welcome to the group of taobao-ers, hehe. I also never buy before I was preggy but started realizing what a wonderful shopping site it is with the help of the mummies here. You can ship directly from taobao shopping site no need middleman. The mummies here recommended me 4px, which I used and found was good. Happy shopping!

Hi ding2505, can share which taobao website that we can ship back to sg.. really mountain turtle..
 
My clinic call me and say I have UTI after sending my pee sample to lab. The results came back after like a week. And I din feel anything for this whole time. She ask me to go and take the antibiotics. Is it necessary? Actually will the infection just go off by itself 1?
Erm juz curious why would the clinix send ur urine to lab ? Is it routine test or ?
 
Mummies the skin on my tummy is super super itchy! I can't help but scratch nonstop even when outside..:/ anything to stop the itch? I believe shd be skin stretching? My belly button is finally starting to level out with the rest of my tummy haha.. now my tummy is also at the size where I bend down I can't see much of my below..
Put more cream

Most of the stuff in taobao can ship out. Juz when u check out page with ur sg address n choose the forwarder (like 4px) n check out will do
 
I use bio oil..u mean the stretchmark creams will work for itchiness? Always thought is only for stretchmarks.. haven't been diligent enough.. :/ I used to be able to still see when I bend down. Now can feel the difference..
Hmm, not sure if the bio oil is causing ur itchiness. Cos when I used the bio oil, my skin oso feel itchy. I din tot my skin is sensitive to it until small red bumps appear. Maybe you try to stop for a day or wat to see if the itch stop. One of my fren oso said she was sensitive to bio oil too.

I cant bend down now liao! Got 1 big piece of tummy stuck in the middle. And my belly button is sticking out halfway already...
 
Hello! This whole week I super busy, can only pop in, comment a bit here and there! Finally TGIF! Waiting for hubby to come and fetch me for dinner, though I had a heavy bfst and lunch....

wanna ask experienced mummies, how many pack of newborn diapers do u guys usually standby?
i know they said don't buy too many packs cos scared baby will outgrow it super fast but my friend said she's using 10-12 diapers a day for her newborn and by a week, the entire pack is gone!

Cos i'll be going to the Baby fair next week and figured if the price is cheap, i'll buy the newborn ones 1st. Maybe like a packs from Merries, a pack from Goon then another pack from Pampers so i can determine which one i like best before buying the S size next.

any particular diaper brand to recommend?

Let what some of the mummies say, if your bb is big, you might not want to get NB and graduate straight for S size, so don't buy too many NB.

Also it depends on what baby like, what works for one baby might not work for another, so need to trial and error.

You can get sample diaper packs to try first before buying.... I have Huggies and Drypers samples from the brands itself, and Mummy Poko from the TMC FBI giftpack. The following link got a good review of the various brands too...

Oh my skin is quite sensitive. So maybe it's the bio oil..will monitor it thanks for the heads up!
 
A bit crampy today. Not sure why :( went to isetan scotts and got the steriliser and bottle warmer set.. $179. It was mad crowded..wasn't feeling too good so I grabbed and left..saw alot of mummies grabbing clothes off the racks but they were nt that cheap imo..
 
Hi mummies, was reading a book that day then realized that we will bleed after giving birth like menses and need menstrual pads?? Sorry need to ask noob questions- how many days will we bleed? So we need to pack pads to hospital? Normal pads will do right?
Also, why do we need washable / disposable breast pads when nursing?

I bleed for 1 whole mth... (lochia)

Some ppl will use maternity pad

But i prefer thick n very long normal pads for first week end slowly downgrade to thinner n shorter pad.

For eg.
I will stock
1-2 pack 40cm pad..
2 packs of 35 cm pad
2 packs of 30cm pad
2 packs of laurier extra thin pad
N a few packs of extra wide panty liners

I am abit kiasu. Better buy more than not enough..
 
hello hello! long time never log in.. finally read every single thread. Phew.. so happening this thread!

I'm 24 weeks now, expecting a baby girl (yay team pink!)
and if i've read this earlier, i wouldn't have bought Carter's newborn size! Lol
Now it's all on the way already but heng everything very cheap. Like per piece $2.00 that kind cos i bought the clearance section one.

I won't standby more than 1 pack of newborn size diapers. My kids outgrew by the 2nd week. The amount baby uses also differs. My #1 only needed about 10 pieces a day but my #2 needed at least 20 pieces a day(he poo poo at least 20 times a day, after every feed). I will send the hubby to buy when I need more because I have a 24 hours supermarket near me.
 
saw other thread... gave birth in hospital and already got engorged breast :eek: that is fast ...partly due to inverted breast so she seem to me not keen to BF and taking medicine to stop the supply but one thing i dun understand .she say she got no milk production then how on earth the breast kena engorged leh

It's possible. My engorgement kicked in by 3rd day when I had #2. Anyway I was already leaking from third trimester so I was somewhat prepared. I had to wheel baby in with me in hospital and latch on the entire day. Maybe her baby was having difficulties drinking from inverted nipples and she mistook it as no milk. Need to seek help from LC if she's keen to continue breastfeeding.

We will bleed for 4 to 6 weeks! Usually the hospital will provide maternity pads. If you have any particular brand which you prefer then you can bring along. I prefer normal extra long pads. Much more comfy imo!

For most of us, our breasts will leak breastmilk when we are breastfeeding. So you need those pads to absorb the leakage so it will not stain your clothes. Sometimes the leakage can be quite massive as it flows uncontrollable when we are latching on one side. I used to use disposable breast pads but I developed an allergy to it. So I had to use washable breast pads instead. It's a personal choice for most.

Also princess like to wake up at 4am to kick asked her any relation that she might do the same when born and the answer is likely sob sob but at least born can train now no choice let her do what she want haiz

Next visit - glucous test .. Haiz the fearsome test for me

First 1-2 weeks very heavy flow so i can't use thin ones... my flow is those 1 shot come out alot... confirm overflow. Especially after massage...

So i feel safer with extra long ones.. coz big butt also.

But then after 1 mth of wearing i confirm will have rashes .. so this round i muz remember standby cream from gynae ..

Have washable ones. I find them more comfortable although more hassle since need to wash. For mummies who are keen, you can find it under Avent, Medela, NUK, mothercare or moo moo kow. Avent and moo moo kow very comfy imo.
