re: giving birth at home
those western ladies prefer to give birth naturally and they said at home is the best cos its familiar surroundings so should be feeling calmer as compared to a delivery room.
they also prefer engaging doulas to guide them thru the whole process.

Here in Morocco.. Ada masakan cina, thai, jepun. Tapi semua tak ada kena mengena langsung dengan masakan kita kat singapore. Modify lah kata ikut selera orang kat sinig. Masakan jepun pula mahal macam nak rak. Tapi pasal mengidam.. sebat aje lah.
InsyaAllah will go back singapore pada 6th october.. masa tu.. 32 week pregnant. Me with my son loqmann. Tak tahu macam mana nanti dengan perut berbuyut dan my 3 year old son yang sedang dalam stage discovery ni.. My husband kenalah tinggal .... serba salah gitu.
*Doula*
Nabmum.. tentang doula I ada terbaca kat following site:
http://www.parentlink.org/pregnant_singapore_birth_doula/02doula/about_doulas/doula_midwife.htm
For me.. mahal service dorang tu.. thought of having their service sebab my husband will not be here when I give birth nanti.. tapi mahal sangat so I lupakan aje.
*East shore hospital*
Ada mummy kat sini yang pernah give birth kat east shore hospital.. boleh share experience tak?

I gave birth at ESH. What experience u lookin' to hear abt? Kalau giving birth there, I'd say, it was alright - the nurses were accomodating & service there is really tip top. The nurses who tended to me were S'poreans, tapi the aftercare (cleaning up of wound, service staff) helpers were mostly filipinos & they were great, polite & very helpful!
Harga wise pon i rasa OK jugak - I took a 1 bedder & with normal delivery without epidural, think all less than $3k.
Re: giving birth at home
Kalau ada yang qualified, tau assist, OK lah. If nothing goes wrong, alhamdulillah. Tapi saat2 ada complications... it's better safe than sorry.
I watched on Channel 70, mat salleh ni pregnant with twins, dia nak give birth kat rumah - sendiri with her hubby! Gilo! And u noe what, the 2nd twin was breeched. Seram I tengok - I switched channels.
Today back at work after a long weekend.... (monday pon off). I am thinking of taking time off this afternoon..kerja berlambak tapi betul2 takde mood...think I need to go for longer leave soon.
Noni
Good to know yr son's better. U tinggal east eh? Sometimes betul jugak, budak sakit pon need some fresh air
Nor
Yr perut dah besar eh by now...beli stroller nampak?

i dunno the title lah, smalldreams. i have not watched channel 70 for so long sebab my tv dah rosak. boohooohooo.. only tonight, the repairmen coming. by the way, you dah penat kerje? sama lah. my buku2 menimbun nak mark tapi macam penat gitu, just looking at them.
lynzi, haiiiii... sekolah kesayangan i ni.. sama lah semua.. my observation is over. phew! i tak kesah lah kalau dorang nak bilang i pasal my performance ke tak. yang i tahu, i'm doing the best i can for my pupils. i cant wait for 1 and half months from now. bila psle dah habis, i boleh tarik nafas lega. lepas tu, kalau nak amik mc, boleh mc lama2 without being so concerned about pupils losing out.

Rasa lega sikit.. tentang which hospital nak pergi..
Siti,
I thought of giving birth in KKH thinking to take gynae Dr Goh Shen Lin tapi I takut because of my history of fast birth tak sempat sampai KKH terpop kat tengah jalan aniaya.. aje.. so I take all percaution.
Thanks smalldreams, danryan and siti for sharing
I will check out about gynae Esther and if not..
I will try out dr Aziz I like the comments some mummies here mention about him being pro natural birth and all that.

umloqmann,
i was delivered at ESH n under Dr Aziz too. My experience was of pre Hari Raya so alot of mummies was "pop"ing n under dr aziz. Labour Ward was full so I had to wait n be monitored in my bed to deliver - almost 6 hrs. I checked in after my schoolmate at noon. She gave birth at 4pm, me at 12midnight. so the labour ward kecoh jugak. hahaa...The nurse tat was monitoring my delivery process was a filipino and there were chinese nurses issuing painkillers n during discharge. dah international sikit. lol.. indon mummy also gave birth there. My pregnancy was uneventful, delivery normal w/o epi so hard to gauge if dr azis pro natural birth or wat. but will go back to him if preg again.
smalldreams,
so scary about the tv show on delivering twins. if got midwife at least ok.
saw water birth on channel 5 in a tub like a bath tub. I had the impression last time that water birth are in deep pools. ahhaha... y dunt they have it in deep pools? boleh thread water sikit.lol..

re: birth at home
I pun nak kalau boleh. but thk my folks/IL would freak out. in sg, birth at home I think there is some basic requirements. heard must make sure dr can down or something
re doula
thnk will be useful coz she help mum cope better with pain/situation.eg. moral support, practical advice, tolong urut. advice to reduce pain/change of c-section. dr/nurses will not be there thru out to support/advice u. doula will. mahal but they on call abt 2 weeks before EDD, u can call anytime tanya question and will accompany thro out labour. if u/hubby dua-dua panic type, doula helpful I think.
have one fren who had doula. her contraction very slow for days. think kalau dr dah suruh give drugs or c-section if contraction continue like dat. doula tu suruh pegang perut up, so that perut weight on top cervix so that contractions more consistent. wah, after that so fast, give birth in taxi hehe.
According to "Mothering the Mother", by Kennell, Klaus, and Kennell (1993), having a doula can give you a:
• 50% reduction in cesarean rates
• 25% shorter labor
• 60% reduction in epidural requests
• 40% reduction in oxytocin (pitocin) use
• 30% reduction in analgesia use
• 40% reduction in forceps delivery
wen to class by Four Trimesters by a doula. very interesting and gd info. macam ada tips to improve/faster/easier birth hmm

daec,
what did you learn from the doula? care to share here?
anyway, are doulas allowed in labour wards? i knoww kkh most likely tak kasi sebab they are very strict about who can enter the labour ward. my mother tried to enter the ward the day before my c-section - cos i was held in the labour ward for one week before my delivery - and the nurses were very, very strict. eventually, they let my mom in when she begged and pleaded and cried.

Sri,
I'm also due in 2 weeks time. Dr Jazlan said that baby is 3kg now and if wait for full term it will be about 3.8kg - chances of me going for normal delivery is very slim. So I'm scheduled for C-sect on the 28th aug. Ha ha, if about same time, we can go see each other, ok! Let's do the countdown!!

Keke, after that i smsed my girlfrens from poly n they had a
super good laugh... Takpe, <font color="ff6000">sacrifice</font> all in the name of education! Used to go on hospital attachments n very diff to get enuff patient's reports to finish ur projects n assignments so i pun tak sampai hati nak halau dia...
Anyway, me under the Budget Scheme aka subsidied care so cannot suka-suka request lah
*Wax kat
bawah*
I always wax kat situ esp in my 3rd trimester. Feel cleaner nak branak, lagi-lagi after we birth kan nanti ade menses where all the remaining bits n pcs all come one. I hate it if those "bits" were to stick to me...

wah...now topic wax pulak.
for me since i wanted to give birth that time i went for brazilian wax...habis bersih.
at first take berani but hearing wat my cousin said...she's a nurse at kkh...i terus made up my mind to brave the pain rather than feel so paiseh to get someone else to shave for me...ishk...
my first time doing waxing was so nervous giler but i chose a place that's only for ladies and not co-ed.
and i paid extra for hard wax cos hard wax supposed to cause lesser pain.
true enuf, the pain was not that bad...sikit je.
since then, i have been waxing every few months...hehe.
ima,
tuesday kau jumpa dini eh?
she told me she met u.
must be after i met her at toa payoh...hehehe...

*Lynzi*
Yup i met here on my way back from KKH. Tenggek jap kat TPY gantry berbual...biasa lah...hal gossip prompuan
*naddy*
Apasal cam gitu pulak, cam Fear Factor sey pakai Epi machine.... Haha, last time i also pluck myself but cam lambat gitu nak habis. Nowadays pakai waxer yang datang rumah...coz keluar rumah pun dah MALAZ!
*Hospital shaving*
Me tak pernah kena cukur from hospital before coz my 1st was C-section so they just shaved mu tummy where the cut is. 2nd one i had wax licin, which was a good thing coz i can clean my stitches easily.
*Pasal brazilian wax*
Like Lynzi said, hard wax better, less pain n cleaner job. Kalo those who malu or malaz nak go down to the shops then i can recommend my beautician. She does home stops. Not that expensive as compared to shops. She charges $65-$70, depending on lebat factor

alamak! malu seh. tru tru sacriface for education. tulah I sien nak ge KK lagi seh.

learn lots perhaps keypoints cukup here, those that I can stil remember hehe
1. she explain that our mindset very impt. it does affect how the birth experience will be. so before hand, nak kena 'brainwash' sendiri by repeating to self daily affirmations yg can do it. why it is impt - coz if we takut, body pun tense up so it cant do its job. instead of relax, it start the Flight or Fight reflex to keep baby inside,beranak susah. we actually have a cd to listen to which have those kinda of affirmations and believes.
we watched lots of birth videos. wah those mum make it look easy. tak pekik tak apa. yes more brainwashing for us that birth is managable and not superpainful, and not need drugs
not that wont feel the pain. but prob pain lesser and can take it coz not tense and accept that it has a purpose.
it help my classmates.I am amazed one of them said contractions was 'uncomfortable' tapi tak sakit. until only last part, she said 'really uncomfortable'. by then, baru she know dah time baby nak keluar.
2. made flashcards for us
a. supportive things for mum to read, things for dad to tell mum when it gets tough
b. accupressure points
c. ways for us to sit and posture jadi lesser pain eg. like hug those big exercise ball, hubby duduk then mum put her head and upperbody at his lap, hubby urut back. it gave some practical ideas for hubby how to help mum.cool!
3.different types of breathing, one used for pushing baby out.suruh practise waktu buang air besar said to be easier and less tearing insya allah. its diff from what taught at hospital.
4. body positions are impt.
-waktu pregnant/birth suruh try check position baby kat mana. if u have doula , she try to make u do postions to shift baby. coz if baby tak betul position nanti susah keluar.this one link she gave
http://www.spinningbabies.com/
-waktu baby nak keluar, certain positions easier like squatting. said to be easier and less tearing insya allah.
5.suruh mum urut her own perineum so it more stretchy, and u get used to sensation it stretching so tak panic bila rasa baby coming out. cant remember at what week start. do those Kegels squeezes, v impt.
6.odd tips I remember
a)dun scrunch up ur face, loosen ur mouth when in pain. somehow ada connection - bila muka/mulut relax buka, bawa tu pun relax.
b) kalau nak buat noise, dun pekik high pitch. make low pitch. it affects coz low pitch focus energy to down there. high pitch the energy go out ur mouth.
do try borrowing the book from library. Hypnobirthing by Marie Mongan. I got that bk and some other notes from class. breathing methods in e bk. only certain hospital allow doula. from what I know -Thomson, Mt Alvernia, Mt E ok. also not all hospital allow u to move ard, or give birth in diff positions.

c. ways for us to sit and posture jadi lesser pain eg. like hug those big exercise ball, hubby duduk then mum put her head and upperbody at his lap, hubby urut back. it gave some practical ideas for hubby how to help mum.cool!
3.different types of breathing, one used for pushing baby out.suruh practise waktu buang air besar
said to be easier and less tearing insya allah. its diff from what taught at hospital. 4. body positions are impt.
-waktu pregnant/birth suruh try check position baby kat mana. if u have doula , she try to make u do postions to shift baby. coz if baby tak betul position nanti susah keluar.this one link she gave
http://www.spinningbabies.com/
-waktu baby nak keluar, certain positions easier like squatting. said to be easier and less tearing insya allah.
5.suruh mum urut her own perineum so it more stretchy, and u get used to sensation it stretching so tak panic bila rasa baby coming out. cant remember at what week start. do those Kegels squeezes, v impt.
6.odd tips I remember
a)dun scrunch up ur face, loosen ur mouth when in pain. somehow ada connection - bila muka/mulut relax buka, bawa tu pun relax.
b) kalau nak buat noise, dun pekik high pitch. make low pitch. it affects coz low pitch focus energy to down there. high pitch the energy go out ur mouth.
do try borrowing the book from library. Hypnobirthing by Marie Mongan. I got that bk and some other notes from class. breathing methods in e bk. only certain hospital allow doula. from what I know -Thomson, Mt Alvernia, Mt E ok. also not all hospital allow u to move ard, or give birth in diff positions.

Ima heard about those Kegal squeezes...confirm will work ke? Lately my kat bawah to cam tak responsive, coz i think due to the doc made too big a cut...somehow affected my control over that area. Nak buang air besar pun tak leh...boring sey! My fear now is that i can't push bby out, coz no control kat bawah

nor (nabmum),
thanks for the number. so, korang tak segan silu open up to the waxer, eh? can you all share the feelings you went thru the first time you did it? how do you overcome the segan factor?
anyway, where will this lady do the waxing? atas katil? atas lantai?
daec,
hmm.. sometimes i do wonder apasal the standard position to give birth is not the squatting position? kan lebih senang gitu sebab the baby will be pulled down by gravity.

Alamak, now I feel like going for full wax also. During my first c-sect, they shave the part they going to cut too.
Nor,
Now, can I still go for full wax? When's the best time to go? Just 1 week before I'm due?

Ish ish
i berbual panjang lupa nak post her no kat sini. Kak Hamidah 97846896 u just sms to enquiry pun leh, she will reply. Will be done on the floor tau. DUn think so malu, coz once u chat up with the beautician dah lupa pun tat ur waxing.
*Squating at birth*
Me dari my 1st n 2nd birth nak cuba ni...but coz Budget Scheme so not really given tat option. I think those mummys tat take specialist can discuss with their persoanl doc about this option right?
*mademoiselle*
The last time i went was 3 weeks before i terbranak. Coz once u wax the skin ade sikit yang bleed (part hair yg degil) so give that are 1 week of rest to recover all the kudis and smooth out ur skin.
Ish ish

Actually i pernah pergi Strip (Holland) b4, tat time my 2nd bby and my tummy dah buncit so i pun tak nampak the "workmanship" i terus pakai seluar, paid and went home. Skali kat rumah i stood kat mirror...ish ish...1 big patch of hair
still kat situ!! KAt back area pun still quite fuzzy. So angry
tat i never go there again. Waste time and $ to travel there pun they can't do a proper job.

You mean you called that waxing lady down to your home for a waxing session?!! Wow! Brapa eh?
Lynzi
How much is it at Strip? No way can I fall asleep while waxing! But of course giving birth is more painful than that anytime!
I've gone for BWaxing about 2 - 3 times, all 3 at spahaven. But that was ages ago! Time pregnant, tak larat seh nak pergi sana, and also, macam very super janggal & awkward ah! Not to mention mahal! If I remember correctly, it's at least $40+ seh.

It *is* embarrasing but of course the therapists would need to be female. The embarrasment factor is the reason why I've not been to one for the longest time. I just reach for my Gillette or Watsons disposable razors, hehe.
Sekarang bila lahh ada masa nak pergi. My life is all about work & family. Sampai dah berserabut agaknyer...tsk tsk...

Mommies,
Wah, all waxing experiences posted kat sini. Ima, if do a group waxing at one person house, ur beautician ok ke?
Sri, Madem,
Skali who knows, both of you will be on the same birth date to deliver your babies. Me and Sharena happen to be at TMC on 8th April. Our rooms pun a walking distance. We got our babies to see each other also. Itu pun I got a surprise visit from Sher & Sasha. It was fun to meet all of them. U pm me ur number and insya allah, once u dah give birth, I pulak turun jenguk u...hee...hee...
Sharena,
How's Shakil? Dah pandai apa? Baby Mel just recovered from bad cough and the phlegm has been cleared from the lungs. Dah tak hear her wheezing anymore. I borrowed the nebulizer machine from Baby Bear Clinic.
<font face="Font_face">Mommies, just want to share: My elder brother just passed away ytd at 752 Jurong West. He was 42yo. Died just like dat. I tak feel a big lost cos I tak brape close with my real family. I dari kecik was raised by my foster family. But I kesian kan his family. He left behind his wife and 4 kids. I wonder how the wife nak cope since the youngest is 1 year old and the eldest is P4. I balik I hug my hubby.<font face="Font_face"></font></font>
