Jab to prevent contractions. will stop jab at week 36 already.
i asked 2 different gynaes abt Salbutamol. I found out that the old-school gynaes use them but it is supposed to be not helpful so late in pregnancy and the side effect is heart palpitations. So i dun dare take so much now. only if i feel contractions and want a peace of mind.

Oh I see ... ya the pills give me heart palpitations n occasionally a slight tremor in my hand, abit difficult to write properly sometimes, haha. But I will guai guai take la, anything to keep beanie in there till 37 wks. Up till now I'm still not entirely sure what contractions (real or fake ones) r supposed to feel like.
 
Mummies hw much are diapers per pc usually? I found one place selling moony NB brand..26 cents per pc. Is this considered ex?

Ya lor... but then the reason he gave was bcoz my cervix length still quite long. So not so fast even though got contractions. .. so juz take another injection to solve the contractions problem.n come back 1 mth later...

Say by 35 weeks he will roughly estimate can tell when i will give birth liao

Yah.. totally understand. Anything to keep beanie in as long as possible!
I read somewhere that usually beanies want to come out only if the environment inside is not conducive i.e. not enough food and water from mummy. So I usually make sure I eat and drink enough.

What is this jab u ladies are taking? My next visit is in 2 wks time, I'm getting a second steriod jab for maturing bb's lungs then. I'm also on Salbutamol pills now to prevent premature contractions. My Gynae never measure my cervix length, the only time I got a measurement was during my detailed scan at 22 wks.

Jab to stop contractions. ..

Actually suppose to take steriod jab to mature lungs... but since my cervix length still long. So no need... juz take jab to stop contractions. As each jab effect last around 2-3 weeks

From my experience - For real ones, the cramps will be so uncomfortable that u can't sleep the whole night.
For fake ones..u will be able to fall asleep after a while cause it is either not so painful or it will stop after a while.

If compare with Jap brands like Goon, Goon was selling at $21 (or $21.90) for 90 pcs at baby fair, which works out to approx $0.243 per pc. Moony pricing is comparable bah, but I believe is on the higher side compared to other local brands.

I also bought Bosomi $13 or $13.50 for 60 pcs, which is approx $0.225 per pc.

Not sure about the pricing of other brands like Huggies, Pampers, Drypers etc.

Getting a bit worry since he was still quite active before tat.. the thing now is my gynae is on leave and my next appt with him is on 16th Dec.. Wat can i do? Call up the nurse and see if they check heartbeat of bb?

For peace of mind, do go in for a check. They will check if fetus is in distress. I'm sure your Gynae will have a back up Gynae, just call the nurse n ask.

Speaking of bp, everytime I go to KK, my bp is 120/60+, but for some reason, at my private Gynae, my bp is always only 100/30+. Can't help but worry if such a low bp will affect blood flow to bb? :(

Can we take calcium tablet containing magnesium and zinc while preg?

I think should be okay since our multi vits also contains magnesium and zinc??

Ya. like the other mummies said..just go see replacement gynae. think they will make u lie down at clinic with the monitor on ur tummy.
i know when ur baby is usually active right? if less than 10 movements in 2 hours, definitely go see gynae.

My BP usually hover around 120/60-70.. how come higher BP will make baby's lungs mature faster?

actually if you have bean pillow weighting on the bb tummy ..should be quite safe to use them .. beside the beginning stage they still dunno how to flip lolz ...
your worry only start when they learn to flip but dunno how to unflip themselve which is usually around 2-3 months old

Bottles and teats usually not much discount, I think this you can get in Robinsons. Only item left is cot mattress, if foam mattress then not so exp, but if getting latex one then you might wanna shop around cuz latex mattress more exp.

Thanks for all the advice. I'm now going for a checkup with the replacement gynae. Hope everything is fine. I don feel at least 10 in almost half a day.. sometime not even in a day..

Booking for The Grand Astor Afternoon Tea at Brasserie Les Saveurs, St. Regis, on Friday, 5 December at 3pm:

Confirmed:
1. Eliss (@ecym) (1A)
2. @Archie7 (1A)
3. @charkwn (1A)
5. Clarissa (coffee only)
6. Grace (via whatsapp)

Unconfirmed:
1. @amberosw
2. @cuteowl

Booking under name Mrs. Larissa Leong. Cost: $49++ for adult and $24++ for child 4 - 12 y/o.

I booked the table for 3pm coz that's when the high tea officially starts but if people want to meet earlier to chit chat over tea/coffee, I will call the hotel to ask if we can be seated earlier. I don't think they are fully booked on Fri afternoon. Anyone?
Click to expand...

@ecym @charkwn Finally managed to get thru to the Brasserie on the phone. They will sit us earlier at 2pm if the lunch is not fully booked, and so far it is not yet fully booked on Friday, so there's a good chance. Let's meet at 2pm then? Booking is under the name Mrs. Larissa Leong if you arrive earlier than me (although I'll try to get there earlier to chope the table). Tell them I called and they said can give us a table earlier if lunch is not full.
