ANY MALAY MUMS HERE?

Hi Everyone..
The thread I baca sampai naik kero.. it seems the hot topic is about tukang urut.. I have mine also as old as Lynzi's. Nama pun seakan akan mine is Nenek Hajjah Kamisah tinggal in pasir ris. Whatever Lynzi stated, thats what my nenek urut did for me also wheh I gave birth to my son. She jaga me and Sharf very rapi..tuam kan Sharf's balls with daun sireh. I had C-sect, she still urut my tummy and bengkungkan all tht..

Lynzi
Samalah, my kaki pun bengkak semacam and it was so scary and she did the same as ur nenek urut buat..kapur and air limau nipis.. And this nenek kamisah also learnt all these urut frm her grandmother. I think the older experieced lady is way way better than the young ones.

The rest, here's a summary of what happenned today..
This afternoon at 5pm, had D&C done. Early morning I went for a scan, gynae confirmed that baby was no longer growing and alive. So he suggested rather than wait for the baby to drop by itself (which can cause infection), why not go for the D&C.
So on the spot I booked 5pm slot at TMC, drove back home, arrange in laws to come take over Sharf, went back to TMC at 2pm do the admission. Mcm cartoon 1 hari ni..By 2.15pm was already in the ward, they inserted 2 tablet to open up my cervix( as I never had normal delivery before, widen the cervix is necessary)..Ya Allah bila masukkan tu, punyalah sakit..At tht moment,I was thinking to myself,it was a great idea to opt for C-sect during Sharf's birth..Salute to all mummies yg endure the labour pains,Really!!
So after it was inserted, I was told to wait for 3 hrs till dilated. I was expecting more pains but Syukur no pain at all until now.Painkiller prescribed pun belum makan2 lagi. Hopefully there'll be no pain at all.
So genap pukul 5, D&C done..bila sadar I was in ward back at 5.45pm..sekejapkan?! Bangun a bit groogy a while but not too bad..still can walk to ladies to pass urine,had tuna sandwiches and milo, settle bills, went back home on my own.
Thats the end of my pregnancy journey..pasrah sudah suratan.. To be goin thru all these by myself alone has indeed made me a stronger mother, I think somehow..

Hahhaha, panjang lebar eh karangan ni..ala saje saje nak share with my malay club mummies..

Babymimi
Welcome dear!!
 


Shimmers

That is why I don't even wanna try to go back to the archieve. I can imagine how kero your eyes is. LOL! I do know you're strong. I don't think I am able to type all that in here within the same day.
 
shermin,
i'm so sorry to hear that.
but i always beleive there is a cloud with silver lining...like org melayu always say...ada hikmah di sebaliknya.
maybe God knows when u will exactly be ready for it.
maybe u are meant to do other great stuffs first.
watever it is, think positive yah!

gerls, if u are calling nenek kamidah u and get to talk to her u can tell her that fazlina admiralty recommend u. Fazlina anak maznah semabawang...she should know.
 
shermin, u steady la.. dun be sad! like wat Lynzi says, watever happens, mesti ade hikmahnye!
happy.gif
Take care of yourself in the meantime! U are a strong mummy! I dun tink i can go thru all these on my own!

babymimi, Teck Whye tu somewhere between CCK and Bukit Panjang.
happy.gif
My older boy da 3tahun. The second 4mths. Factory da tutup! LOL!
 
shimmers
so sori to hear dat. Insya-Allah klu ada rezeki, u can always try again. Ni semua dugaan kecil je utk kita.. and i tink u r very strong to go thru all alone w/o hubby ard. Whatever it is, have a very good rest and u still need to pantang tau mcm org bersalin jugak.
 
Thanks all for your kind support..
Well I believe if any of you are caught in situation like this, sure got no time to emo emo pasal you have to get back on your feet fast for your beloved child yg left behind while you settle whats necessary esp when your companion not around. Now I never looked back, I'm glad at least I'm blessed with Sharf at this moment of time. He keeps me goin stronger each day. All mummies will do just the same for their loved ones kan..
happy.gif



Lynn
Nak kena pantang? I know pasal Mum n MIL pun ckp org gugur lagi worst than bersalin. But I dont know how to pantang when gugur ni.. According to gynae I can get back to my normal routine and eat well. Must I eat jamu all tht? Was thinking to go urut but not so soon lah..

What else do I need to jaga pple? Share sikit..

Btw, Sharena and babylee will be admitted this tues kan, any of u visiting them,say on wed/thurs? Kalau ada, we'll go together eh..
 
Shermin my dear,
Am so sorry to hear this. But I do am shock that you can actually handle this all by yourself! Whatever it is, there's always a reason behind it. Allah sentiasa mengetahui. Give yourself more time to prepare mentally and physically. All of us in this forum will pray and give you more strengths in this time of need. Shermin if need be, I PM you my number.

Lynzi,
So your nenek tak do sengkak lah eh. I tot usually orang lama lama nie dorang normally will do this.
 
shimmers
tis is wat i heard from my mom and makcik urut, org yg gugur pun mesti pantang. abt makan jamu tu i'm not so sure, but i noe, u nak kena urut jugak, mcm org bersalin. i tink it best ur ask ur tukang urut. coz dia org lebih mahir dlm hal ni semua.

any mummies yg pernah went thru or heard anything abt tis, maybe can share with us..
 
HELLO SEMUA MUMMIES!
AND ALSO A BIG WELCOME TO THE NEW MEMBERS HERE~!!!

Shermin...
im so sorry to hear wat happened...be stong ok! Keep ur chin up dear~!
And i also heard that in this situation you will have to go for urut, my cousin also had the same situation and she went for the urut...think of it as taking care of the well-being of ur body..

to the mummies yg nak pop! soon.....take care n advance congrats!!!
 
Masyaallah~!!
i masuk sini tadi pasal nak ask recommendations for a good house agents....hehehe, ni pon i bleh lupa.....

anyway...awak awak kat sini know of any good , reliable, must be experienced housing agents??
Do help me to look around ok? tanx in advance!!
 
Sally Cinnamon,
My first baby was in July. Same bday with me. So initially me and my hubby tot of planning this second one to be June baby, same with the daddy. Tapi my hubby tak tahu kira calendar lah, so I'm blessed with April baby instead.

Shermin,
It's true you kena pantang. Like what the others say kan, u kena lah urut to take care of ur well being. As for Jamu, if u don't like it, try taking other essence.

Shermin, hee..hee.. apa lah u. My doctor belum lagi jumpa I. Appointment baru this Tuesday then he will know if I got to be admitted ke tidak. Anyway like what he mentioned on my last appointment with him, my cervix is already open. So still I'm a bit nervous jugak lah. Actually I mentally belum lagi prepared. I'm still afraid of those labour pains. If u nak pop down to see Sharena, I love to join! If I kena admitted on that day, u be the first to know lah.

Anyway, if u all intend to do another playgroup or gathering, I guess Sharena, IC and myself will be able to join only after kite nye confinement. Cos I dah niat dah! I intend to bake cakes and cookies for u all to try! Maklumlah, I'll be getting an oven soon in my new hse.
 
shermin,
yah u got to pantang.
when i gugur last time my mum got me the same nenek to urut.
still got to take jamu.

mamaliz,
can recommend my fren if u want.
he very good but chinese.
i ni very fussy so i think he's good as he was very patient and diligent in trying to find for us.
i viewed more than 20 houses in woodlands and sembawang tau before getting the one i wanted...hahaha.

nor,
welcome to this thread!
U are the one selling the california baby things rite?
are u the one living near vista point??
 
*babymimi*
hehe actually by luck me terjumpa, i was searching for info on the Phil& Ted stroller tapi results show ini pulak
happy.gif


*Lynzi*
Yup that's me. Me tinggal just belakang Woodgrove Pri... so bising esp on assembly
sad.gif
Rasa cam nak pindah but houses so expensive lah nowadays.

Nak survey sikit... U all once find out dah preggie straight away go for medical chk ups or wait til dah 3rd trimester then go. If u go, then u go poly or KK/NUH or private hospital?
 
lynzi....
u can sms me the contact of the agent, actually memang i prefer to look for a chinese house agent. Is the person very experienced? I nak carik rumah at woodlands lah ni...nearer to my mil so i can start work while she take care of my kids for me...
i will pm u my number k. tanx so much!

Nor,
Welcome to this thread and for me when i found out i was preggy which was by using the pregnancy test kit, i bought another kit...hehehe, kiasu sikit pasal for both pregnancies was kinda a surprise/shocked...then we went to poly for the first born and gp for the second born jus to confirm the pregnancy...
then they refer us to kk....
 
*babymimi*
Eh.... macam tul punya coincidence
happy.gif
Yah i was looking up for shops kat sg to test it out. Look online of course very nice but of course need to chk it out. Coz i just found out last week i preggie (again) and my 2nd bby just only turned 6mois. i calc by the time my 3rd one out my 2nd still need to be 'push ard' so contemplating on a double stroller. Ur is the which model and mana shop u buy?

As for my 3rd suprise bby, i'm thinking of putting off the chk ups til my 3rd trimester. Hospital-wise my frens all recommend NUH, but that still have loads of time to decide on
happy.gif
 
Nor,

I bought her the double stroller in red. We bought that at The first few years in paragon. The single and the double stroller is the same model. You just need to buy extra seat for the double one. Btw congrats on your pregnancy!
 
*babymimi*
Thx
happy.gif
So only tat shoppe has it... tadi i went to United Square forgot to chk tat store out. My son (3yrs) was too hungry so had to leave in a rush for supper. Saw online tat its sold for $1018. Too bad coz my budget was $800 only
sad.gif
 
Nor,

mothercare too selling phil&teds. You would want to do a comparison on both stores before buying. We took for granted and didn't brought along mimi's stroller, assuming we would be able to cash and carry it but the color we wanted wasn't available so we ended up buying 2 stroller since mimi don't wanna put her feet on the ground and mummy desperately wanna go shopping!

P/s: Just sharing in case you might have the intention to not bring your stroller along. It was a bad idea! Anyway, we needed to wait for 3 working days for them to deliver the stroller to our house.
 
*babymimi*
I think i'll go to the store to testing only
happy.gif
I think buying from US shopping is still the cheaper meathod plus within my budget of $800, inclusive of shipping & gst. In ur opinion the 2 seating cushions is plush enuff? Some stroller selling so exp but the seating so stiff with meger cushioning inside
sad.gif
 
Nor

What do you mean by "meger"? I don't understand apa tu meger, really. If your're comparing to quinny buzz no its not plush. US shopping is cheaper but the shipping can kill me.
 
mamaliz,
i will pm u his contact no.
IKf u finding in woodlands even easier cos he's living here and knows the area well.

babymimi,
forgot to welcome u lah...paiseh paiseh...hehe.

nor,
wah...since u dah join this thread then can give me and zu further discounts next time we buy CB from u...hahaha.

Mummies,
me very hepi today.
Faiq has managed to flip twice today!
YEAAA...finally!
 
*babymimi*
Alamak my spelling take power sgt lah. I used to have the quinny buzz, shiok bila bawak jalan, but can't fit into the car....hehe. Maklumlah, kereta Picanto kecik...

*Lynzi*
Hehe
happy.gif
Me last month trying so bad to get lower pricing coz the US dollar dah drop pe, tapi the shipping cost going up...up...up... end up the same thing. Me nak complain to CB coz lately they pack rabak, small itmes in 1 BIG BOX...
sad.gif
So far shipping cost has not eaten into my own pocket so still okie
happy.gif
Ur bby 3month dah leh flip
happy.gif
tats good, my kids last time too fat so they ard 5-6 months baru leh flip.

By the way itu list kat atas tu tuk ape huh...Kira macam the total members in this thread izzit?
 
wah! sat pun kecoh!
happy.gif


Nor, u finally found yr way here! Abt the pregnancy thing, i wait till i'm 3mths baru jumpa gynae. Cos u go so early pun they will ask u ambik test lagi. Waste money kan. Then kena bayar consultation etc.. Mahal jugak beb! Anyway, congrats again on yr pregnancy!!

Tak salah, Phil and Ted at Mothercare slightly cheaper. Anyway, the price of this stroller da drop jugak over the past 2yrs. LAst time was over 1k. Now less than dat.
 
nor,
now exchange rate is 1.37 tau.
yalah shipping is ex.
Btw, congrats on your preggy!!
i waited for 3 mths then go cos i takut false alarm as it has happened before and ended up i got disapoointed.

Faiq dah 4mths now.

Zu,
i think we need to do something about that list ah.
takkan we wanna update our kids age every month kan?
maybe we should change to birth dates instead.
 
Good Evening to all mummies...
Shermin..Hope evrything is well for u and i doa kan semoga u tabah menghadapi segalanya..I guess this experience makes u a tougher n a more stronger Woman..
 
Lynzi,

Thanks for the welcoming!

Nor,

You belum beri tahu apa tu, meger?

Moms,

kalau ada playdate session do invite me along me ya cos both of the playdate sessions I normally went dah tak active lagi
sad.gif
since most of their darlings dah start schooling. I just enrol mimi to 2 hours playgroup, she will be begin this May so anytime after 12pm we are available
happy.gif
 
Shermin, so sorry to hear about what you went through. Stay strong. Agree with the rest, you need to pantang as well as urut.

A big welcome to all the new mummies.

Been a busy weekend so I'm dead tired now. Too many activities to be packed into just 2 days. If only the weekend is longer.
 
*babymimi*
Ohi think the word is "meager"... tul tak? It's suppose to mean insufficient or someting like tat.

*Zu*
Heezz....apo kabor! I think i'll stick to the going on 3rd trimester. Malaslah nak ulang alik KK plus waiting for doc sampai 2 jam :p Every time see the doc he will say just 1 sentence "Everything ok" and i pay him for that...
sad.gif
 
babymimi, u can join me for playdates. Mostly at my place in Teck Whye. Malas i nak lari jauh2 dgn budak dua nie. hehe... u cn PM me yr number, kalo ade meeting i kol u.

Nor, i'm oki.. cari stroller ke? Dat tym u bawak yr kiddos dua org dlm stroller.. steady je.. tak yah nak bli lain. 3rd trimester ru nak jumpa doc??? Lamanye..
 
*Zu*
haha, yelah but tu balancing act takde safety lah. Kalau my gerl dah besar then my boy nak duduk mane? No dukung pls! coz my tempat branak nanti drop lagi..sakit seh.

U all ade organise gathering eh
happy.gif
Kalau ade in the North nak ikut.... Eee.. bosan duk rumah. Nak cari keje pun sape nak employ mak buncit..ish ish
sad.gif
 
nor, yr gal besar suru dia jalan. Boy and baby can share. Like wat i did... Slalu kalo boy tak KO, he dok depan stroller baby sleep behind. Tapi kalo he sleep, nampak2 i kena lar gendong baby like dat day.
 
Zu,

would love to join you on playdates but I can only make it after 12pm. Will PM you my no
happy.gif


Nor,

tu bahasa apa eh? Melayu ke english? How come I never heard it b4 eh? ok ok I let it go..
 
*Zu*
Haha
happy.gif
u kelakar lah. My gerl 6mois cam mane nak walk... n my boy 3 years old dapat duduk in stroller while my baby girl walk...hehe nanti orang ingat i bully my daughter!
happy.gif


*babymimi*
English lah... ish ish... me dah lama tak "speaking" coz workplace dulu byk malaysian so now ade sikit lembab nak spelling
sad.gif
 
Shermin
sorry to hear ur exp. Need to recover after that both emotionally and physically..HAve a gd rest and take care of urself ya..
 
nor, ya uh. Lupa dar.. Then let yr boy walk lar. My boy pun 3YO. I now kluar malas tau. Da carry baby dlm carrier i suruh dia jalan. Then now he seldom take afternoon nap. haha.. Kadang dia da ngantok sgt tak tahan, jalan mcm org mabuk!
 
Anyone ada recommendation for playgroup or N1 at Woodlands (dekat dgn vista point area) tak? I can't stand my son (3yrs) kat rumah anymore! He's so bored out of his mind that he selalu cari pasal with his little sister
sad.gif
I think dia jealous of his lil sis (6mois) so i have to get him frens his own age grp
happy.gif
 
Hi All,

Dah lama I tak join in the discussion.. oohh touching abt sengkak, I tak tahu pulak that it could result to you having difficulty to get pregnant again. Is it true? Cos my tukang urut ader buatkan I sengkak after a few months I dah deliver cos I c-section.
I thought its to make sure your uterus tak ke bawah and gelebeh..

shimmers,

you are strong dear..if me..i would need someone to be there with me..mesti ader hikmahnyer k..ALLAH swt lebih mengetahui..take good care of yourself k?
 
Talking about sengkak, kenape haram in the first place? And does it make u infertile? So far n the past 2+ years my womb asyik drop (during preggie n not preggie times) and casuing me loads of pain n discomfort and the only "relief" i get is to go down for urut with sengkak.

By the way whose mums who are interested in getting Phil n Ted's double stroller, i called up Mothercare today and they are having promo: Black sports with free double seat for $899 + free delivery Quite a good deal
happy.gif
altho not the colour that i would like to have...
 
Shimmers,
Semuanya takdir. Jangan putus harapan ok? Mesti sebaliknya ada hikmah.

lynzi,
Terima kasih. You cakap anak perempun dia pun urut kan? Anak perempuan dia umur berapa tahun? Macam nak suruh anak perempuan dia pulak.

babylee,
Amacam? You dah buat pilihan tukang urut? Or masih nak buat dgn kak su?
 
Sally, thanks for the effort. I've updated mine.

Lynzi, yeah, same question as the rest. I've done sengkak after the birth of my 2 sons to make sure the womb is back in position.

mummies,
correction on my part.
the sengkak that u gerls meant was to put the womb back to its pre-pregnancy position.
that kind of sengkak is ok.
the kind of sengkak that is haram is to push the womb higher up so that the sperms will have a hard time reaching.
thus, can result in infertility.

daec,
i have just spent a bomb on eric carle's and karen katz's book ah.
if not will surely buy again...hahaha.

mamaliz,
i have pm u the contact.
 
IC,
No choice. I'm sticking to Kak Su. Anyway my mom says it's alright cos I dah biasa ngan ye. Why not u ask her to lower her price same as mine. I think I am paying $400 leh.

Btw everyone, I kena admit to TMC skarang jugak as I'm typing right now. So guys, I'll be joining Sharena tomorrow. Who knows. Same room! If only my hubby can get 1 bedded for me.....sigh!!!!!

Dr Ang says high chances I'm giving birth tomorrow morning. Tapi I tak rasa sakit pun....:p
