Hi, does LO need to spit out the toothpaste? OR is it ok to just swallow? Maybe can try singing a "brushing teeth" song. There was a period of time my girl also din allow me to insert my finger with cloth to clean her teeth. I tried singing the song while "brushing" the teeth of her favourite...

My baby will still fidget a few times thru the night. sometimes she can go back to sleep on her own. sometimes she cant then i'll have to pat her back to sleep with her pacifier.

Gynae checked my stitches during my first postnatal review 1 week after delivery. 2nd review at 2 mths after delivery, gynae did pap smear and ultrascan to check that the uterus is fine and back to normal.

My baby girl 3mths next week. She's drinking 120-130ml every 3hr interval, sometimes can stretch to 4hr. She has stopped waking up for night feeds. And I also don't purposely wake her to feed her in the night. I also wonder whether she's drinking enough or not since she nv wake up in the night...

I'm using goon for bb since birth. No diaper rash so far *keeping fingers crossed* CL used to apply a huge blob of desitin during every diaper change, said its to prevent diaper rash. But after CL left I stopped applying desitin as I feel its very strong. I will only use if there is really...

I am supplementing with FM for 1 or 2 feeds a day, not enough bm for whole day. So if I skip too many pumps then will have to supplement even more with FM and I also scared will cause my supply to decrease further. Not feasible for u to pump at least once at work? I dont dare to lapse so long...

Thanks mummies for your encouragements. :) Truly only mummies understand. I think most men are the same. Yes I agree they just do not have the motherly love and instincts in them. At the end of the day, most of the responsibilities still fall on the mother and we gladly do it for our children...

Sorry this will be a long post but i really just need to rant! I am so angry with hb! Last night after dinner he wanted to go out for his cycling workout. The last time he went he came back only at 11+pm and lo was cranky and fussing the whole time and I was only able to bathe when he's finally...

This morning suddenly just realised i am 33 weeks liao and havent packed my hospital bag and havent washed baby clothes and panicked! Like only 5 weeks left to 38 weeks so fast! Have you all...

When i was 29 weeks, baby measured 1.8kg, which is supposed to be like 31 weeks weight. My gynae also said it's considered big baby and said may have to induce if baby continues to be so big. Plus she has a big head too! I'm so scared must induce or also what if i can't manage to push baby out...

I also had dizzy spells and fainting feeling previously. Gynae checked my blood and said i'm anaemic. Actually I'm already mild anaemic before pregnant. She said our blood haemoglobin will decrease as we progress in the pregnancy, so it might slowly get worse since i'm anaemic to start with. So...

Can take panadol if you are not allergic to it. If not, best to see a GP and tell him u are pregnant. Best not to anyhow self medicate now...

@happycsk , which sterilizer bundle you bought? I just saw a pigeon sterilizer bundle at kiddy palace selling $129. Very tempted.... but havent buy, cos dunno whether is that considered a good deal or not. hahhaaa need to do more research, cos i only just started shopping for baby stuffs.

Thanks @happycsk. Yeah i feel exactly the same way. i try to tell myself it's not common too, and try to be optimistic. And until now, i don't share with ppl i'm pregnant, unless they can tell or ask. Just don't dare to take it for granted... I also feel it's only safe and can only share with...

I'm 19 weeks now. Also still can't feel baby kicks. Just sometimes some weird fluttering feelings. Dunno whether it's baby kick or gas.... I have to wait till Jan for detailed scan before i can see baby again.... I got mc before so i'm very paranoid..... Sometimes when i think abt it i will get...

Hi Bubbles, I'm 2 days away from week17. And i feel the same as u when i place my hands on my lower belly. Sometimes it feels more like bubbling, but sometimes its like 1 or 2 jabs at the same spot. I also wondering the same thing as u hahha... dunno how to differentiate.

My gynae asked me to stop folic acid after week 12 and start the prenatal multivits + calcium. I see that the multivits already include folic acid, though not as high dosage as the previous folic acid pills.

Yea i have that very frequently when i stand up too. But past 2 days was really dizzy. When i stand up, the world started spinning and i couldn't walk straight, had to hold on to a support and sit down to rest. And also after standing/ walking for some time without sitting, i start to feel light...

Yes I had dizzy spells the past 2 days too. Both times in the morning, but fine later on in the day... Dr did say i am a bit anaemic. But i have been taking my multivits with iron. Not sure whether dizzy spell still because of anaemic.....
