Rose,

Yes there is 3d scan in kkh but very ex. If I'm not wrong is about $270. U can go nuh to do it and it cheaper ard $150.

 

[rinang]

working wife, i went to google...

http://www.babycentre.co.uk/pregnancy/antenatalhealth/physicalhealth/fingerpainandnumbness/

hmm... does the exercise help? Dr Paul ask me to massage below the wrist..thts where the main nerve is.. .and also shake the wrists with the elbow ....

i dun hv swelling at all...arm n fingers still same.... just the pains...

 

[working_wife]

Panda - I find that the exercise helps a little. By afternoon, the pain is not really noticeable anymore (until I take afternoon nap and wake up, then the pain is back again!).

 

[rinang]

working wife.. my pains also hardly noticeable by afternoon leh..keke.. coz i move around after i wake up... u r right..after sleeping, its worse....

next monday i m going to ask angela if there are any other ways to get relief.....

 

[pupu]

Thanks fashion_spree.
Think I will save on that then...

 

[pupu]

Hi ladies,

Anyone bought baby stroller? What brand u getting?
Am thinking of capella S705...or combi urban walker.
Anyone buying that too?

 

[rinang]

rose...i bought the capella s705..

 

[pupu]

Pandawife,

You bought 1 or 3?
Good? I saw it at robinson sales, not bad.

 

[rinang]

rose, i only bought 1..haha.. we are considering if wanna get another twin maclaren...

my hb likes the s0705..coz its spacious and sturdy... coupled with the reversible handle..personally, i tink its on the heavy side.. but he says i will not b bringing the babies out w/o car.. no need to worry abt the weight..... price is also reasonable considering the specs.. i paid $297 nett for it at baby studio...

 

[pupu]

Panda,

Where's baby studio?

 

[rinang]

This is the place.

I still considering if should buy a maclaren twin stroller or buy two single

heard that babystore is the distributor for maclaren. Different series diff price ...

Today went gynae check up

started the jab to boost babies lungs... Painful man. Tomorrow need to go again. The jab needs two consective days. I only remember to ask if urine test okay and forgot to ask babies weight at week 28. Anyway dr says they are good

Seems that from today till Monday, many c sect on schedule. Gynae and hospital busy busy ..

 

[rinang]

Nancy...u r how many weeks now huh? My fren w twin boys who r three yrs old now still using her maclaren twin triumph...she highly recommend the brand if want to buy twin strollers. Of coz the newer twin techno models now r even better... She ask me to check price w this store call cheong choon ...

 

[singapoh]

I went to Infant fair yesterday at Metro. Ordered a playpen

http://www.metro.com.sg//storefront/ContentDetail/MagazineEvent.asp?ContentId=893&NextOrderId=1

 

[babe79]

Nancy
How come so early need to boast bb lungs liao?
U only 28 weeks now... I heard panda says the injection only take 24 hrs to take effect...

 

[ilovemoomoo]

Panda
heard of this store before I will check it out

thanks. Though I not getting one now but better do homework while I still can. After that send my hubby to go buy

my hubby seems clueless at all these only keen with baby/kids toys... Sigh. All things I decide

baby
it's a practice for twin mums at my gynae's. Start jab and med to relax uterus at week 28. See gynae once every two week now. Week 30 detailed scan then see if jab needs to continue. Skies did this protocol as well. Dr says so far this works well to keep babies in till 37 weeks and need no nicu. So I follow instructions lor. Ur gynae in glen e mentioned anything abt the jabs ?

 

[soontobe]

Panda, workin wife, e exercise will help retrieve e pain. It may get worse when u r later into ur pregnancy. It will slowly go away after delivery.

Singapoh

[rinang]

nancy,

cheong choon does delivery..and u can check price over the phone... my gf din even had to go down to the store

she says whenever she buy big bb items, she will just call and ask them to deliver..very convenient... price wise, they seems to be as competitive or smtimes better than baby fairs.

stb, u had carpal tunnel too?

baby, diff doc diff practice bah.. dr paul is super pro natural kind.. he will not prescribe med unless very necessary.. i spoke to angela last week, n she told me to ask dr paul for the mature bb lungs jab! hahaah.....

 

[singapoh]

[babe79]

Nancy
My gynea did not mention anytin abt injections to relax uterus or to mature bb lungs le... Will ask him on my next visit..
I think my dr is like panda dr.. Will not give med if i dont need it at that moment... But if have med to relax uterus i will feel more assured...

Working wife/gan

[babe79]

Undercooked eggs hv bacteria. Better Siam.

Mine is fitted sheets from Aussino. T shirt material and cheap. Can fit my long mothercare mattress coz it's elastic. $20 for 2 pieces during sales if I remember correctly. I heard that the stock is limited.

[singapoh]

Baby,

U can eat and still lose weight when u bf.

Skies,

No need to bring bottles

 

[soontobe]

Panda, I'm not too sure whether it is called carpal tunnel, but I started to have pain/ache at the fingers joint and wrist when I was into tri 3, which got worse towards the later part. Even after I delivered, the pain didn't go away immediately...instead, worsen again coz of the way I carry my BB. Thus, please be mindful of how u handle ur triplets. I think perhaps you want to standby wrist guard....8)

 

[rinang]

baby, its porriage made from assortment of beans.. not bu lah...LOL...

angela told my mum good for me to take beans food lor..so she making me this porriage..n beans desserts and soups .... yesterday was black bean soup....

stb, thanks for the tip..yeah..i was tinking of getting wrist guard too.....
