Dianajs,
I bought two.
Farlin one for normal delivery also can use. So that tummy will not be so flabby. If I am not wrong it is $39 and selling in Kiddy Palace.
Intend to invest on one OSIM slimming belt. Went to see that day. They have 2 different kinds. 1 for normal delivery which comes with magnets and help slimming cost $98. The other one is for c-sect, got more support at the back area and for slimming, cost $88.I intend to get the latter one.

Dianajs,
Welcome to our thread. The master copy is with Kome, remind her to update when u see her posting on monday..
If ur stretchmarks are still red, u might want to get the clarins SM cream and try. So far, those who have red SM, say the SM fades after applying the clarins one.

Update from my gynae visit yesterday..
I lost 800g and bb gained 350g. Gynae say bb's weight is still alright, absorbing from me though i am sick but i can afford to eat a bit more to let her gain more.. i guess.. i shall go bu when i recover bah.. now bu might end up prolonging the already very long spell of coughing. So in my gynae's records i have gained 12kg as at wk32 but if i use my own weighing scale only gain 11kg leh... humm... guess 1 kg not a very big deal bah.. hee..

Re: Peanut
Peanuts are high in proteins..it's good to eat but think if don't have skin allergy shld be ok..
I just had black sesame glutinous rice balls in peanut soup...I also like rojak with peanut =P
I also take Skippy Peanut butter spread..with the chocolate.. Sounds heaty hor I took since 2nd trim liao..So far i'm ok loh *touch wood* Drink lots of water..
Think if want baby to have the most nutrients and to gain weight, think right now we shld eat more meat, vegetables and fruits.. Carbo like rice and noodles.. it's mostly for our weight gain and not really for baby..I still eat rice and noodles but i'm cutting down liao and eat more of the high protein and calcium food to plump the baby up..
But no worries mummies.. Seriously, i feel that big sized babies doesn't mean they are healthy and vice versa for small sized.. The healthy range if i'm not wrong is about 2.6-3.2kg..??
Well according to the old aunties' sayings, bigger sized baby easier to take care.. I guess just do what you can to eat healthily (Frankly speaking, I find my diet getting quite boring liao.. sort of eating for the sake of eating like dat..used to snack alot and didnt eat proper meals but now no choice cant do that)
I was a 8-pounds baby close to 9-pounds.. Hmm from my experience, I always fall sick when I was younger leh.. don't think I'm that healthy loh

Hi moomooland, Queenie,
If <font color="0000ff">finger joints pains</font> is due to swelling, then might be because we low in potassium and high in caffeine and sodium.
So, I'm going to eat more banana.

Bananas is high in potassium. It is also good for ppl who have constipation and heartburn.

Yea its very depressing not to eat sinful food.. Esp I enjoy rich good food like chocolates and stuffs.. Yup, same here sometimes i need sinful food to make me feel happie too..*sign* I'm not a saint mummy haha..
Yah loh, confinement food that is "bu" = gain weight.. Boring confinement food plus gain weight is double whammy to depression..
And during bf, have to take the breastfeeding powdered milk like Annum etc also leh..
I'm going to so ban powdered milk for a LONG time after bf is over.. *shudders* Quite a torture to me drinking that for so long..
