No diff from my hubby sometimes (not all the time) so when i felt his phone is more impt, i will tell him go hug yr phone to sleep tonight la ar... since u married ur phone liao no need me le... what u need u ask yr phone to do k? Then he will get it n start putting his phone dwn...
 
Dun get too upset over it. Some men will nv understand. Some men will change after they c e baby.

My hubby behaves like a kid too. When I was preggie wif my boy, he played games till I ate potato chips for dinner coz it was way past dinner time n he haven gone to buy dinner. Not dat I can't go buy dinner myself but I wanted him to realise he needs to do his part. Even after a few times, he still nv helps out much wif housework coz we were having a part time helper den.

Den I insisted on getting a helper coz I was really tired n knew he wun b able to take care of e baby. Not dat he dun luv e kid, he juz can't do it. Best decision I made for myself coz my helper turned out to b v gd. Even now he sometimes plays his games n ignores my boy. I can only say make sure u get help if u r not confident ur hubby can help u wif taking care of e baby. My hubby dun even noe how to bathe my boy n my boy cannot b wif him alone for long but life goes on... When u c ur kid growing up happily n healthily, everything will b ok.

There r still times I can't stand him playing games n will tell him off but if I'm not dead tired n my helper is ard, I juz leave it. Esp when number 1 is pestering me when I'm darn tired after work. I try not to take it out on my boy but sometimes e whole house will kena when I can't control myself. At those times, only my helper understands...

I'm having number 2 so dat my boy has a sibling den I shut down factory le. Too many ppl pampering him so I dun wan him to grow up as a single child.

Last leap le, stay happy!
Haiz . So sad .
No more pregnancy After this . Really tired . He don't understand how tired am I.

I went to see gynae for wrist pain coz I thought it was carpal tunnel. Turns out, I have loose ligament at the wrist. It has been so painful the past few days.. I can hardly do simple stuff like wash face and wash hair. Lol...

My gynae suggested to wear wrist guard and it helps. He also gave me a cooling cream to rub, which helps quite a bit.

Do find out if yours is loose ligament or carpal tunnel, I'm not sure if the wrist guard/cream can help for carpal tunnel... Coz the pain is kinda different.

We're almost there! :)

Baby Max & Mylittleponey: Heee mine is at Orchard one. Is Novena rates expensive?

Mummydt: Hiiii, I think I know who are u. :)

Happy21: Thanks for the check list. :)
 
32 wks and now start to panick abit about small items not bought yet and haven packed hospital bag nor wash baby clothes. Somemore the place I am doing confinement is different from where I will stay after that so need to pack 3 diff sets of things.
Anyone feeling emo these days? One small thing like families having small bicker at home can set me into a depressed mode. Wanna start packing feel no energy.

Doesn't help that husband is not around. Delegated him the task to find baby shower venue and insurance but both tasks not done for half a year . He still has so many opinions about the bb shower venue when he din even do any research. He hasn't gone with me to buy any baby stuffs in past few months, and he is not the least bit worried if I got all my items ready. Tell him I am feeling backache these days also like being ignored cos he also ain't here to do anything.

Sorry ladies just wanna rant. Guess I will start washing some stuffs later.
I bought just one pack of newborn diapers 80pcs for time being, Coz CL may use the cloth type. Should be enough?
 
Hi, Anyone feeling alot of kicks near to your pelvis area? I had alot last night and was quite worry because I am only Week 30.
Before this, I normally only feels the kicks around my belly button area.
Not sure is it because baby is coming down already?
 
Xyun08: Dun panic, make a list and slowly do item by item. Dun be too stress, later baby can feel it. Not sure about the diapers but many mums warned me not to buy too many at one go cos not sure if baby backside will be sensitive to certain pamper brands a not. Jiayou mummy! :)

Xiaobaichu: Me too! I felt the kicks last night for the first time at pelvis area too! I am in my week 31. Previously Gynac says the head is not down yet and I keep telling baby to slowly turn down so mummy can opt for natural birth haaaa... My next check will be on week 33, hopefully I dun need to do C-sect.
 
Hi

My CN is currently in SIN looking after my toddler for 1week as both me n hubby are out of the country.
Feel free to contact her at 81441626 if you hasn't find yourself a CN.
Her charges are very reasonable.
Btw, her next confinement is on 6 Jan 2016
.
 
can start to wash the clothes and prepare so not so rushed in case bb is out earlier.

i bought 2 packets of NB pampers (90 pcs each pack). Intending to use pampers brand. previously for the elder tried numerous brands but pampers still most suited. so this time there was offer and just stocked up. previously gave CL instructions to change the diapers once there is pee (even if no poo). this time round should be the same. for me not intending to use cloth type if possible. too messy and troublesome. scared will tire the CL out too with too much washing. :)

anyone has previously delivered at KKH before can share ur experience ?

do you choose the PD or is it automatically assigned to you?

if opting for epidural, does your gynae assign any specific anesthetist or is it random ?

By the way will maternity pads be provided FOC or need to bring your own ?

Previously didnt deliver at KKH so not sure what to expect this time round.

Mine is more of stiff finger joints since yesterday... the feeling is like u need to crack your fingers to feel better, but then cannot crack anything...

For once, i fear I am not able to wear/remove my wedding band... but lucky... it is still wearable and removable... thought my fingers got a little too swollen, but it don't seem to be the case... but i guess it is about time for me to listen to hubby and start wearing the ring as a necklace... gonna be hard to get use to not having a ring on my finger... T.T

I have sore and aching finger joints in the morning but the feeling will subside as the day passes. So it's normal. Unless your joints suddenly swell up, then you may need to check with your gynae

Hi mummies,

Anyone having any good rest recently? I have been tossing and turning every night because I have difficulty sleeping on my left side. My thigh will get numb and followed by burning sensation and pain on the thigh that will wake me up.

If that happens, I have to sleep on my right. But my bb is kicking mostly on the right side and I am worried I will hurt her if I sleep on right side. So ended up, I have to sleep facing up but with a lot of pillows to incline my back to a semi-sitting position when sleeping.

I am still trying to find an optimum position. :(

thanks for sharing! i shall observe it.. hope it aint pain tmrw. i am shocked to see the joints area turns yellowish (its obvious coz the rest of the hand is of red colour, like blood rush thru-out except for the joint area) after a hand wash this afternoon. Shall also check with gynae tmrw..

Turns yellowish? Better check gynea tomorrow. Take care!

I cant sleep well too. Altho i dont get numbs but tummy feels heavy no matter which side i slept on or lying flat. Felt stretching pain in the waistline.. >_< bb kicks in either position.. -_-" less on the left tho..

think if your thigh gets numb often, better do some light massage for better blood flow?

I get the burning sensation either on my thigh as well, on the side that is pressing on the bed. So I'm up 3 - 4 times per night just to change positions. After changing position it takes a while to fall asleep again. Sometimes I'm awakened because I feel too hot, even though the aircon is on. Not to mention needing to pee every few hours.

I think its perfectly ok to sleep on your side though, I always feel mine moving after I flip to the other side. I think he is shifting to get comfortable too :D

Yah, another 6 weeks more to go. Endure and we eill see our bb soon.
 
Anyone start to feel less bb's movement? I am now week 34. I still feel my bb in the early morning. But her movement is less now.

Hi i saw a fetal chart movement pamphlet at kk yest. Maybe you can dwl online..i think it mentioned you shld feel 10movements in a day. If two days in a row is less than 10 then contact your gynae. Smthn like that
