Jo
my connect plan is due this dec so will tahan til then.then,i'll see how.if my boss really extends my posting at HQ i'll stay one more year,then find a good school during open posting.
if he went back on his words and i'm posted out,i'll just get no-pay leave lor,and maybe teach tuition to earn milk-powder money.think it's be more flexible than contract teaching right? |

Zhu Zhu, sounds like your gynae doesn't want you to blame him if you end up with a difficult labour...probably had a lot of mums scream at him while in labour... : ). But like you said, no need to rush into a decision yet, discuss with gynae and hubby and then trust in your own instincts...meanwhile, we'll all be rooting for you to have a smooth delivery. : )
PiggyB: I just realised that there are three of us due on the same day under same doctor... If we all pop on the same day, Dr Chua will be extremely busy... |

garfield and woof
ya i agree when the the tummy is getting heavier and heavier,it's really tiring.i was thinking of getting a support belt to help hold up the tummy so that it doesn't swing when i walk!but later thought its a waste of money la,cos just a few weeks til i give birth mah..
since yesterday i've been feeling the urge to pee when suddenly my baby kicks on my pelvic bone.then i'll worry whether it's my waterbag bursting.paranoid mummy to be,haha.
btw the nurse(at the hospital) commented that maybe because i'm a first time mummy,that's why i'm ultra sensitive to my body changes.she said the next few few times i will be very cool and calm already,cos experienced mah. |

ytanhn, feel so excited for you. Dun worry, you get to see your newborn soon. Jia you.
Loh, really depend on the nurse, some juz hand over the bb to you and left you alone but if you approach them for help, tey will guide you along.
zhuzhu, seem like your little one too comfort inside your tummy keke. one of my gf daughter stay until 2 days overdue then induce.
garfield, my boy is one mth younger than your girl. Now I still can carry him cos still in 33+ weeks. By another couple of months dun noe still can carry him or not. Sometimes, he will pull my hand to ask me to carry him or go with him to somewhere but I also heavy to move. |

Leooh, You're welcome...having a baby definitely curtails one's career - no matter how temporarily. Its difficult to accept esp when you're on your way up... For you to be posted to MOE HQ means you're definitely very capable and probably on either the specialist or leadership track...however, like what one of my colleagues was just telling me this morning, the pros of having a baby are definitely much more than the cons, and your career will get back on track after a while...MOE won't want to lose a good teacher for nothing...they've invested too much into grooming you up to this point to lose you now...this much I know...its frustrating but hang in there, k. It won't be forever. I'm in the same boat too, and that's what I tell myself to keep my morale up. |

but heard that c-section wounds take longer to heal la. |

Leooh : ))
According to my cousin-in-law who has experienced both ND and C-section with epi, the latter does take a longer time to heal, whereas for ND, "its just a little cut and you can move around the next day". I guess in terms of pain, its really about whether you get it before (ND) or after (C-sect)...One way or the other, can't avoid...sigh! |

@MoThEr Of 3 PrInCeSs@ (mother_of_a_princess): I just copy n paste ur nick nia..
He wants me to decide on my own.. I think he is right in doing that cos as docs.. they cannot decide what I want unless he feels I'm in danger bah.. but I think he put it quite obvious what would be the best choice.
leooh: If I hv to c-sect den I guess I cannot pick what kinda of pain I want right?
I dun know y my girl wans to stay inside for such a long time even though now is so CRAMP inside.. |

maybe because ur gal feels very warm and comfortable inside mah..
maybe you can try coaxing her to come out,tell her mummy wants to play with you,and it's more fun outside,and you can wear pretty things...entice her with goodies!;-) |

Magical &Leooh, hang on there. Job is a job – that’s why they have to pay us or else it will be called a hobby. If bosses drive u nutz, then juz shut ears lor. Teaching is a cycle, they will be a time which they need teachers like hell, esp when market is good. So juz stay positive and rem, your little darling is still your priority.
I understand totally cos I used to have a v nasty boss who single me out for every new project when I was preggie (1st baby) best of all, she is also a woman who is preggie too! Pure Maddess.
My baby not engaged yet also - now 37 weeks, I kan cheong already. Try to keep on walking to see if can help the situation. |

@MoThEr Of 3 PrInCeSs@ (mother_of_a_princess): I cannot walk for more den 15mins lest my tummy gets sibeh pain.. The only walking I do now is from mrt to mum's place which is like 5mins walk and I take 10-15mins..
Squatting exercises dun work.. she slightly lower nia not say alot dat y i think her head now too big to engage into the birth canal.. |

Hi Ladies,
I seen my gynae last tuesday and she informed that my baby's head is already engaged. Do any of you know roughly how long more before I can see my baby? My pelvic area is starting to hurt, and at times I can actually feel someone scratching against my cervix area...quite painful...
Last but not least, Congrats to all Mummies who had already given birth! |

Hi Ladies!
Sorry that i so late then update u all.
now still at Mt E using their wireless (must pay $10 per log in of 24hrs!), tom will discharge if all go well.
for the past 2 days, was on drip so not able to move much or walk n the pain (wound site, cramp due to contraction of uterus and backache) was quite bad after the anesthesia went off. was allergic to Synflex so the other pain killer was not so effective.
here are 2 pics of my baby...
didn't have a chance to capture pics with his eyes open.
will post my birth story of C-Sec with Epi experience soon...

Dear all August mummies,
Sorry to interrupt as i'm from the Sept thread.
Hi zhuzhu,
My gynae also the same as urs but my case is worse than u as i may need to opt for c-sect instead of ND since i'm low placenta 
Dr Woody also tell me percentage of c-sect is very high but ask me not to worry as there may be miracle nearer to my EDD since i'm only coming to 32weeks only. This's my first bb & i really wish i can opt of ND instead but i think all these is fated lor.
So u dun worry so much & remb to keep a positive mind
My main concern is $$$ as a few of my frds also give birth thru him but all the charges r different so if u dun mind to update me once u've deliver so tat i can get a rough idea from it thanks a lot. Pls remb Happy mummy=Happy baby |

the breastfeeding was good but initially the nipples are sore, not used to it.
must remember to pack the nipple cream in ur bag!
if there is any breastfeeding classes available during ur stay, it will be useful to attend as the consultant will correct u and baby if he is latching on wrongly. |

Hi Cin, I chose Cordlife for the same reason...international accreditation...
Loh, Playtex soft disposable liners BP - 125 pcs for US$2.50 per box, but that's the sale price. Full price is US$5.25, I think. Can also buy from shopbug.com, a local on-line shop, and its cheaper than buying from the shop at United Square. I bought through both BP and Shopbug.com. Waiting to see if after postage cost BP pricing is still cheaper or not.
Bliss: Congrats! What a cute little boy! |

Congrats to the mummies who've popped! WOW! so how does it feel having the little one outside of u after such a long time?
when i went to see my gynae yesterday, she said baby is facing in the right direction...head facing downwards already, but not engaged yet since i'm only in wk 34, there's no rush i guess..thigsg going smoothly! (think that means the baby's head is facing downwards but not in the pelvis yet i'm guessing?) quite happy so far...she says my chances of natural birth is high,and there has been weight gain on mummy, so that's good....
just as an aside, the cellulite on my thighs now are terrible! ah well..sacrifice, sacrifice...
I've bought the Playtex soft disposable liners via the online spree #6 too..hopefully it'll come soon! anyone has updates on it? |

Hey All Aug Mums,
Getting so exciting liao. So fun everyday seeing if any mummys pop.
Yesterday went to Gynae check up and gynae say baby getting bigger and bigger. 2.9kg at 34 weeks which is consider BIG! Suddenly he tell me maybe in 3 weeks time, once i reach full term 37 week, he will see if can induce baby if permits or do C section. Suddenly this news let me think oh no! No time liao... In 3 weeks time I'll be a mummy..really so hard to digest in.
Anyones baby like mine so big liao? |
