Ahhh ok .. my brain is getting rly pea-sized now. Just now I was looking at my admission letter over dinner. I thought i put it back in my bag but it turns out that i left it on the table...andthat's why there was no trace of it in the bag!! zzzz
 
Quite sad today. Went to see gynae and she said I hav placenta previa at 32 weeks and will prob need c-sec. Quite shocked cos previously she has always say will move up and never mentioned c-sec...
Most of it at the side but the end of it is fully covering the opening...wondering whether I should get a second opinion. Also blaming myself for working too hard and nt getting enough rest cos just now I read on te Internet seems that w low lying placenta you need lotsa rest. Forgot to ask for hospitalization leave just now though cos in shock.
And feel very sad.

Currently I had bought this insurance.
Cover both mummy and baby.
I paid abt $100+ per mth only.
My agent told me will be covered to my baby after he is born in future. I will be his trustee.
I bought this when I was week 28 like that. I had given all tests that I had done to them. So far no issues.
U can have a look. If u hav any qn, u can pm me , I can refer ur my agent to explain ur if ur wan..

Wah. ...All your bb big big...gd leh. *envy* My bb on the small-ish side. Only 2.5kg on week 36+4. All the weight I gain goes to me and all the gd food I eat go to me too! I am gg to have a difficult time losing weight after I give birth manz....
Click to expand...

Mine is small - 1.9kg at week 33+5. For me, it's not so good if the bb is big, coz it means higher chance of c-sec. We should be happy as long as bb is healthy. They can put on weight fast after birth.

@bbcripps also have this and she doing fine. Don't stress urself too much.
Rest more ba, some things we cannot control.
I learn to accept the situation n let myself go. Like my daily jab, gd and gotta induce.
Doc spoke to me say must be prepare to stay in hospital for longer time coz 1st bb n induce, scare body don't react to the induce pill.

I went for the tests I think week 12 and 20( Oscar scan check fr any Down syndrome) and some of the Uls detailed scans and my blood tests results.

He jus now told me the insurance that cover both mom and baby can only be purchase between week 18-32.

Don't be too hard on yourself. Stay positive so that bb is not affected by negative mood. I'm sure you would have done more to rest if you had known earlier that you have placenta previa, but feeling guilty now will not help things. Go get a 2nd opinion if it makes you feel more assured.

I was very sad too when I was told this week that my chance for c-sec is very high due to my small size, was cursing my genes for making me so short and "dysfunctional". But I needed to let go of these destructive feelings. Can only leave it to God as He brought me this far...
 
Went for a maternity group photoshoot with 14 other January mummies at Studio Memories and Emily Park. A pretty rushed affair (~ 2 hours) but I was so terribly exhausted at the end, I had cramps, the feeling of the whole uterus tightening and some pain. Went home as soon as I could and fell asleep for a couple of hours. Never slept so soundly in the day time since start of 3rd tri! Guess I'm no spring chicken or super woman anymore, who can do multiple big tasks in a day.

Chill .... Be happy. .. Your bb can sense your emotions ...

Over the weekend rest more ... Dun think too much .. Natural or c'sean , bb safe and healthy can already . Just like I always tell ppl , boy or girl , healthy can already ...

Be happy , it's weekend ...

u must have set your expectation on natural birth very high that is why you are sad now ... the method of birth doesnt make you a lesser mummy so dun be sad ... and considered yourself lucky now then you know cos if know early you will be paranoid abt it and worry about bleeding etc

xicloudix said:

Oh mine is same as yours ! It's so painful right ESP after one full day of working. Whole foot like numb and swell till up to knee there!
Click to expand...
painful no leh... did you attempt to rub /massage your feet ? when you do that then slight pain..but bearable
fluffy_fluffy said:
Oh , I think they are giving us a foot print or whatever free ... I just submitted the name to them haven't collect the thing yet. Will post it once I receive.

The first one - scan one ... Also free , can ask the agent to call you if you interested in keeping the cord . Think also complimentary
Click to expand...
huh? who giving it free ?
 
This morning I suddenly have this soreness at the front of my pelvic bone. its like somebody kicked me in the groin last night..lol. I think its just greater pressure from baby? cause doc said baby is in head down position
 
@PTB7674 CL told me to fry some rice, put in thermal flesk n fill with hot water and drink throughout e day to reduce water retention. Maybe u can try...

Don't be sad don't be sad *pat pat* I know it must be a shock to u, but like what @PTB7674 said, at least u r in the final stretch now, a few more weeks n your bb will be safely in your arms, n on the bright side, u didn't have to spend the last few months worrying abt bleeding. When I bled n found out, I was only 22 wks... gosh at that time had I had to deliver, the bb would not have made it. I remember going back to office n locking myself in the toilet n crying my eyes out. So the wks after that were really filled w paranoia. But life goes on, blur blur I also passed another 12 wks, can still go expo, taka sale, isetan sale etc, haha. Just try to take it easy for these last few weeks, no heavy lifting, no sex, always listen to your body, if not feeling well, just rest. In any case, since only the end of your placenta is covering, who knows, maybe it can still move. My colleague's moved at wk 37, n she had a very smooth natural delivery at wk 40. Jia you!

Got just back from my Gynae, chunky is 2.73kg at wk 34+3. Took my second steriod jab today, n gotta continue my anti contraction pill till wk 36. Gynae says if all goes well, I will go in for csect just before wk 38, so we r targeting the week of 5 Jan. Fingers crossed!

Too many ppl walking into the ward ... Promoting ... Everything I just say Okie ..

I think it's dumex .

I even take the baby u newborn pic taking at 168

Wow ... Your water retention quite serious ... Then I must be the lucky one , no water retention at all ... Only if I play 12 hr mj then will get . But after wearing the compression sock for overnight , next day back to normal ...

My water retention only appeared after discharge from hospital on the 2nd day at home and lasted for 2 days .
