IVF Mummies-To-Be Support Group

gan, my clothes are still where they used to be. but the toys are all over the floor! its a mess now.. i need to spring clean soon.. so tht can make space for more bb things.
 


Gan,

My bbs never use exersaucer before. My hub said too bulky and expensive. They are using walker to chase each other and my big son (on bicycle)

The neck float is to support the neck. In the water it's weightless.
 
singapoh, this will be my first time order.. let u know when i receive the items.. some of the leg warmers are combi brand.. quality shld b good..
 
singapoh,
before i start the cycle, i always tot i will be much more relax this time round since i already have twins. but im wrong leh. still tends to worry about the progress.

think the fact that i decide to go for FET is obvious - that is to conceive another bb, therefore i think the stress is naturally there.

Thanks for the info! Will go get it!
Any idea when the promo ending? Not sure whether still on sale this wkend not cos these two days not free to go town..

Gan
Sorry girl.. Can give me the link again on the world of korea for the playmat? I lost the link again... Hehe..
 
Any idea how old can bb play in the play gym? I aldy have one given by a friend.. But no music.. Thought of getting one with music.. With two gyms both my bbs can play in it...
But scare they will outgrow it very fast...

The fisher rainforest gym got revolving animals but the one u buy dont have right? So the above animals wont move unless u go touch it? I wonder whether i should get one that have revolving animals above...

Did u buy cot mobile? I never... Hmm.. My bbs sure so bored.. Mummy nvr buy all these for them... :s
 
Mic
Yours is partial previa or total previa?
If partial previa.. It might shift up in later stage so still possible to go for natural birth.. But if total previa unlikely it will shift up so must go for c sect..
I have total previa and i went for c sect... C sect might have more blood loss but its more due to the previa than of the c sect op.. I had blood transfusion cos lost too much blood..
 
Yck,

Aiya u already hv twins then dun worry too much yeah. My expectation was zero. I told myself that it doesn't matter if my FET fails coz I already a mother. At least I tried to conceive again. Really bochup attitude
 
baby
I have total previa. Dr comments it will be very complicated surgery and need blood transfusion.
So, must wait till due date or go early delivery ?I dun have any symtone till now.. now is 33week already.
 
Mic,

I have total previa too. It shifted up 1 week before my csect date. It will move up but not much. Mine was moved up by 4 cm.

Just remember not to walk too much to prevent bleeding n contraction. I was admitted dued to walking too much during my 27 weeks. I have contraction at interval of 5 min then. So
just rest well.
 
fashion-spree,

my next visit is 3weeks later. Maybe because i din deliver at here, Dr didn't explain well. This is my first BB, i also dunno what to ask.. Very WORRIED.
 
Singapoh, Grumpus,
in the 1st 2mth when u latch ur bb on full bm, how long did it take? how long can each feed last?
i latch my bb but it seem it always different durations.
 
Mic
U expecting singleton?
With total previa u might deliver earlier.. But some also deliver near edd... So u just sit tight ya.. Rest more...
I deliver in 34weeks... But cos i have twins..
Did dr say why u will have a complicated surgery?
 
singapoh,

ya, maybe should follow you. bo chap

Babyhopeful,

Bb will detach from the breast when they are done. If I still push my breast to my gal, she would bite me. Ouch!

Yck,

Yeah take it easy babe!
 
Mic
U msian? Must deliver in msia? JB?
Alot sporeans also deliver in JB.. So im sure there are good drs in msia also...
 
Baby,

Ya. Cos i dun have relative at here, nobody will take care of me. Some more i only rent a room at here, not so convenience.
I will deliver at Malacca so my mum can take care of me.. Planning going back on weeks 37, will it too late ?
 
Baby,
I bought the play gym from Suntec Carrefour. Maybe you wanna call them to see if the sale is still on? Carrefour is still selling Enfalac at $40.88 when other places have increased the price to $45+.
The items hanging on the Playskool play gym can't revolve. But my twins are quite facinated by them already. The fisherprice rainforest one is even more interesting but I can't get a new one here.
I didn't buy the cot mobile too. I was thinking newborn babies can't see so I didn't get it before I gave birth. Then I thought of getting after my confinement when my babies was almost 2 months. By that time, my nanny told me it's already very late to get. So I didn't get any eventually. Oh by the way, babies can start using play gym from 0mth onwards.

Pandawife,
Thanks for the link on the neck float.
 
Babyhopeful,
my girl took abt 30-45min in the 1st 2 wks, then 15-30min. subsequently she latch abt 5-10min only. in the beginning only last her abt 1.5hr. now can last between 2-3hr.

bb will unlatch once done. sometimes my girl falls asleep and doesn't unlatch. but if i keep disturbing her to drink more she will remember and unlatch.
 
pandawife,

saw the neck float link, cool. will be buying...
thanks.

gan,
saw ur nick at the neckfloat link, u may wish to consider pandawife link to the blogspot coz u can choose not to buy d pump. 15 bucks for the float only and free postage.
 
Rose yup ordering from bulk purchase coz I need the pump, dun think I have enuff air to inflate the float. Hehehe
The total cost from bp include normal postage is $20.

Hmmm my daughter has adjusted her sleeping time to 8pm.=s
 
Gan
Yr girl sleep at 8pm after milk? What time will she wake up for the next feed?
My girls sleep ard 9pm.. Wake up at abt 2am for milk.. I hope they can sleep till 4-5am... Hmm.. But seems difficult..

Btw, u using mamy poko diaper medium size? What packaging cos i wana switch brand leh.. Cos the huggies blue packaging diaper no good leh.. It will leak urine.. Its different from the green packaging for nb and small size.. Its much thicker.. I have no problem on urine leakage when im using the green pkging.. But only comes in nb and small size..
 
Baby my gal will ask for milk abt 5 hrs later n subsequent feeds 3 to 4 hrs, she doesn't sleep thru the nite. Yes fed her at 7pm plus. Was hoping she sleeps at 9pm Coz when I return to work I wld be home around 8pm, that means no intereaction with her during weekdays night if she sleeps at 8pm.=(

There is no different packaging for mamy poko like Huggies. Wearing M size now n no issue with urine leakage. Last week Ntuc got promo for mamy poko leh, $20.65 for 66 pieces. U can go check if promo still on.
 
baby, my little ones usually hv one evening feed betw 6-7pm.. the next feed will usually b 12-1am.. followed by 5-6am. the midnite feed, we will dream feed the other 2 if they are not awake.. so tht no need to be waking up every hour thru the night.

grumpus, i tried givng 3 rounds of bm today in the morning.. for 6 hrs, i felt like constantly feeding bbs.. by the end of it, i was so tired..i told my mum i need to go take a nap!
 
I tried dreamfeed my girls at midnight after their last feed at 9pm.. But they still wake up at 3am for milk.. I thk cos they aldy sleep for 3hrs frm 9-12.. So they cant sleep thru another 4-5hrs after that.. Thats y i dont dreamfeed them at midnight rather let them sleep thru till 2am...

Gan
I shall go out check it out at ntuc for the mamy poko.. U know whats the usual price if no promo?
 
Baby. i think usual price is $24. BTW NTUC also got promo for pampers...work out the same price per piece as mamy poko. u can check out too...i think 2 packets $29 plus...can't remember exact figure. we bot pampers to try.

Pandawife, is your 2nd maid here already? Madeline just called and said the maid i want got problem with passport and would delay in coming??! hear already super sianz now.
 
Gan, madeline called me yesterday..says the maid will reach sg last night. depending on if she can pass the test at 1st attempt. earliest i can pick her up is tmr.. latest coming monday.

did u ask her when would the delayed date be?
 
Pandawife 3rd week April... Regret not agreeing that the maid come end march when Madeline first propose... I was thinking early April then.
 
Gan, Madeline just called me. my maid cleared both the test n medical. tmr afternoon i will be picking her up.

haiz..dunno how i will manage 2 maids.. now the existing one already hv some problems ... simply too many pple in the house.. everybody hv a say..she is confused n blur ..
 
Gan/baby, NTUC xtra also hv promo for pet pet..i bought 2 packs to try. read on another thread tht its quite gd n cheap too. the gd thing is unlike other cheaper brands thts stick on..this one also velcro..

i need to hv velcro ones coz my mum super like to open the diaper to potty train my bbs... so the stick on ones after a few times will not stick well..
 
singapoh, the maid very buddy w my parents..always talk to them in malay.. i hv no idea wht they talking abt..n anything she goes to my dad..who is super easy going one..will say ok to everyting she ask.

i even threaten the maid, if she continue to speak in malay n dont learn english well, i will send her back to the agency. but she still talks to them in malay :S

i hope to end the war soon leh.. but i dunno if its possible.. coz this current maid cannot handle bbs...until now still only doing housework n bb related support activities. cannot let her feed or carry at all.. she is like a big kid herself.
 
Panda,

Ask yr agent to speak to her. Does she hv a chance to handle yr bbs? Now I let my maid bathe my bbs. Not so tired for me and I m putting on weight! My big boy's face also getting rounder =p
 
pandawife, madeline said that the training centre say 50 50 chance regarding my choice maid's passport. =S she said got cases wait for 3 months... =S
Now she recommend a ex Arab maid....work 2 years there taking care of 2 year old and 4 year old.
going to interview and see....i prefer ex sg coz they know our culture but this passport thing...may mean i dun get the one i preferred.

Your 2nd maid also ex sg right?

Singapoh what do u think of ex arab maids huh?
 
singapoh, i want to poach your maid!!! hehehehe

Pandawife, i dunno a single word of malay so need someone who can speak some english...very scared those everything yes yes, later still blur dunno what to do
 
singapoh, i havent let her handle bbs yet... her behaviour is childish. after about 1 mth, i still hv to remind her 5-6 times a day to wash n sterilize bb bottles. and rough too.. she has broken one of my window grills and spoilt 2 cooking pots leh. :S

from wht i observe, she is very interested to play w bbs.. likes to sit w them to talk n play..but definitely not ready to take care of them.. she has this habit of bursting into loud laughter when she think of or see smthing funny.. n her sense of humour i odd.. i hv to tell her not to laugh so loud coz will scare the bbs esp when they are sleeping.

she is gd for basic housework.. hands n legs...maturity lacking..so i bu fang xin let her handle bbs...

gan, i hv interviewed many ex arab maids.. in arab usually the houses are very big..so one family will hv like 4-5 maids kind..each specialising in one area. so some of them dun wanna work for family tht they hv to do both housework n take care of bb....

my 2nd maid ex sg..but thts many yrs back.. her eng also pte limited..i probably hv to train her from basic...
 
singapoh, i dun dare to call the agent to talk to the maid leh.. the first n last time i did tht...the agent scream n scream at the maid over the phone..then the maid cry n cry...aiyoh.. i felt so bad after tht!
 


just interview her, english good enuff for me. she worked for american in arab n ok when i told her do housework n take care of baby

hmm i guess maids are yuan fen n luck hopefully either one that finally comes is good
