Hmm. hope baby can tong until week 37. Cos week 34 is still preterm. My cousin's baby is born week 34...stayed in nicu for a while. though baby is a healthy 7 mth old now, I think the mum prefer not to have baby in nicu after delivery. Urs ok?
 
@nazriah How much is bosomi wet wipes this coming fair? I can't seem to find the price. Only saw the diapers price. Lol. Saw another Korean brand going at 10 packs for $29.90. 1 pack 100 Pieces. Dunno gd or not.

My official edd is 26 April. But i may be induced earliest this Friday, 10th or latest next Friday, 17th. Coz gynae said my amniotic fluid level getting lower and baby isn't growing much. I have GDM and usually GDM mothers have big babies but mine is a small baby.

Faster come out good lah. I'm really very tired physically. And sick of going to work. Haha.

@yew_yew jiayou! I also have GDM and like u small baby. I think mine would come out earlier too as my gynae said. Don't know if he is still going be a May baby.

Is your baby head engaged already? I am at 37++ weeks, but feel still not ready yet. Hope baby can wait for another one week, until my mom is coming down to town to help me. lols....

Like tt how u can still go to baby fair. Better rest wor. My hubby once said he want get wheelchair for me when go jalan jalan. Haha. Like tt no worry for BH.
 
I can't wait liao. My baby seems to know that she's supposed to come out tmr. Coz my tummy looks significantly lower today. And I can feel her squirming lower into the birth canal. If you ask me to poo poo now,I feel like pushing her out. Thought I saw my mucous plug come out too,when I peed earlier today. But no contractions yet leh.

In regards to wet wipes, been a week since i used bosomi (Korean brand) wipes and diapers.
My take on it, I like it. My baby's bym has no rashes so far.
Upon discharge from hospital, she was using huggies diapers and Johnson&johnson wipes. rashes were building up. And I had to use nappy rash cream.
After changing to bosomi, her bum is better now.

I got the wipes and diapers during the feb babycare fair at expo. A carton of 10 pkts of 70sheets pack cost abt $17. Diapers for newborn size 60pcs and S size 54pcs were $14.
Only thing abt the wipes is that the size of the sheet is smaller compare to Johnson's but its ok for me as the sheet comes out one by one rather than all got entangle and come out a few pcs.

(Somehow I sound like bosomi promoter! Hahaha)

Ohhhh the promoters are native korean. BUT they dont look anywhere near those korean dramas stars. Hahhaha... not even close!

Hope that they will be at this week's baby fair. Can get husband to buy more of the wipes.

thanks for your review of Bosomi wipes! I like to buy the wipes by the carton and since seeing Bosomi reviews, I've always wanted to get them but they seem so expensive on qoo10!
I'll be sure to look out for them at the expo fair this weekend. 10pks x 70 sheets at $17 is quite a good deal!
I've got stocks of moony wipes (japan) and babysitter wipes(korea) - got them when I saw time sale on qoo10, super good deals.

Edited to add:
Found on Bosomi FB page -
Bosomi Peppermint wet wipes 70pcs X 10 packs $18

This seems to be the only wipes on offer...

anyone tried or know of any reviews for shapee shapewear? I think the prices are very reasonable compared to WINK shapewear and they will be in the expo fair too..I will go check them out tomorrow. WINK seems really costly at $60+ per piece and need buy few pieces to rotate for wearing...

hihi just to share, I bought from shapee from last expo coz I thought quite affordable and also gave one to my sis (a high waisted thigh length one). Feedback I got from my sis is that material not so good and no support at all so I don't think I would be wearing them after my delivery. I am contemplating to try other brands now but I will probably wait till I deliver depending if its natural or c-section.

stuffy burning sensation at chest area. When I burp, normally is gas but now is liquid rushing out. Like want to vomit like tt. hope u understand wat Im trying to describe.

I think u can try gaviscon, my doc prescribed me that when I mentioned I have heartburn and acid reflux. It does help instantly.
 
Hi all,
I am expecting May bb and have been a silent reader since my early pregnancy..enjoy reading the tips, comments & sharing from all mummies here! :)

By the way, is anyone here plan/has already ordered confinement catering?
Seems like quite many said natal essential is recommended..

Hi mummies, are there any recommendations for baby shower venue for 100 to 150 pax?
Click to expand...
Hihi, I am also sourcing for venue. some of my friends suggested Safra and I have been to one at yishun safra, big enough but to find out the rates. I think what makes a nice one also depends on the caterer you get and the decor if they do provide.

Hi @friomum I read from Qiu Qiu's blog that she got hers from Thomson confinement food. If I have not booked my confinement lady I would have considered this as the food looks pretty good :)

Was considering but hubby say MIL will settle the meals. So I ordered 28 days of Traditional Chinese Medical Post Natal herbs to boil as soup for recovery instead.

Pardon me..what is Traditional Chinese Medical Post Natal herbs? Do you need to see the Chinese physician to prescribe it?

thanks for the review! my colleague actually say it's not bad but she was very slim before pregnancy and kind of returned to her pre-preg weight easily. She shared she wore shapee but I was thinking she is naturally blessed with skinny genes too. haha....seems like may have to splurge a bit on WINK afterall. There is a seller in the bulk purchase forum here.

I think it's best to find a responsible seller whom u can ask many questions. Maybe u wanna check on what material they use, whether if they are suitable for post partum, and if they allow for exchange if size doesn't fit. No point paying so much if it does not fit at all.
 
Will go down baby market to grab some last minute items!!! Saw their fb posting and getting all excited cos so many things to look at.. Gotta spend some money again...
