Leooh, this is really a scary experience, glad to hear that you are ok now. Try not to exert yourself and rest as much as possible.

Chattypheyling, am also having very bad water retention for my legs, got difficulty walking and standing now. Have to raise my legs up whenever i got a chance to let them rest.

leooh,
oh dear.. u poor thing! must have gotten quite a bad scare..
at least u were smart enough to catch it before it got worse! can give yourself a pat on the back! anyway just take it as baby trying to tell u to rest more and dont stress yourself out coz when its ready to come out, u'll need lots of stamina to to take care of it!

[summer_baby]

Wow, juz two days never come in and there so many posting liao.

muddypie - how I envy you. Only put on 6kg. Like tat very easy to shed off the fat after birth liao.

misch - nevermind lar, we can go diet together liao lol.

leooh - I can understand wat you gone thru cos during my first pregancy, I also had a difficult time, always in and out of Mt Alvernia and the delivery ward. Especially the delivery ward, the bed very hard to sleep and so noisy and the light is always on. Torture man. But you dun worry ok cos my son was born premature at 34 weeks and only weight 2.2kg but luckily, he was very healthy and doing fine, only need to stay intensive care unit for 1 day and luckily only cost $300 plus instead of $1k.

leooh,
sounds like my experience but mine was 1 night only at 28 weeks. I responded well to the medication so could go home the next day. I was on Salbutamol until 34 weeks. I'm now almost 35 weeks and contractions are very frequent without the medication. But so far no pain. I think should be able to hang on till at least 37 weeks.

Weight gain: My pre-pregnancy weight is 42kg. The recommended weight gain by my gynae is 10 to 12kg. When I went for check up at W31, I was already 52kg (but baby was only 1.3kg! - which was quite low, should be around 1.7kg).

Anyway, so I decided to treat us (me & baby) to durian (twice!) and see what the gynae will say this friday (W34).

For me, the fear isn't so much about not being able to go back to 42kg (cos that's underweight). I would like to be 45kg but am afraid all my clothes wouldn't fit!

Good morning Ladies,

went for my checkup last Fri.
Baby is 2.76kg at 36w5d. seeing Gynae this Sat again
confirm going for C-section next week, had done my pre-registration at Mt E already. for C-sec, the hospital stay is like 4D3N.

Gynae said the Malay massage is not recommended for C-sec and said it's all in the mind. so i think i wont be going for the massage. he said can only do the abdominal exercise after 3 mths.

any mothers going for C-sec as well?
