Do you think the kind of food you ate when pregnant influence your children's food choice?
I had quite a lot of fast food during first trimester when I had nausea. Hope my kids don't particularly love fast food!

After delivery will have flow?! Sorry, 1st time MTB here.
Click to expand...
flow for almost 1 month or more !!!
it is called Lochia

In the field of the obstetrics, lochia is the vaginal discharge after giving birth (puerperium) containing blood, mucus, and uterian tissue. Lochia discharge typically continues for 4 to 6 weeks after childbirth.

i also prepare disposable undies,in case the lochia is more furious then i expected.

i also went breastfeeding class last week!

@Archie7 , I am also planning to sleep train. But from the books I have read. The earliest you start sleep training is maybe when baby is 6 weeks old. 1st month usually you try to rest as much as you can.
Click to expand...

@cuteowl, thanks for the tip. I thought sleep training as early as possible is to help the parents rest as much as possible, as the bb can sleep without night (middle of the night) feeds, then I can sleep thru the night too. The book I read said can sleep train as soon as bb comes back from hospital, but it should be gradual, not forcefully imposed with expectation of instant results. :)

Gasp!! Lunch comprising Salad (Romaine lettuce + soba + bacon bits + hard boiled egg + croutons + apple shoyu dressing) [Seems very healthy right]...gave me my highest ever postprandial reading of 8.5!! I think there is probably a lot of sugar hidden!

Lostinsg said:
I just realized I did not use 4 packs.. But I used 8 packs of 90 pcs each pack.. :)
Click to expand...

@Lostinsg, I went home to count and realised I have 5 packs (198 pieces) of NB diapers! :eek: Mine is a boy and although gynae says he won't be a big baby (probably less than 3kg by birth?), I was told by diaper sellers at baby market that bb boys will grow very fast. So I should refrain from buying NB diapers for now. I'm sure you'll have better luck with Nov/Dec mummies. Pampers is a good brand and should be in good demand. Good luck! :)
 
gammahedging said:
if wanna line the whole bed, i tink need 2. but only mommy needs the sheet not daddy... i am getting 4 anyway so...shld be ok i hope.
