(2010/11) November 2010 MTB

chatty: i am really sorry to hear about your story. hope your blood test is going well. if not, try to 'bu' your body to prepare for bb again. jia you! be strong yea!

 


Jollymummy & Hho: thanks for the advice. I will check it out first, perhaps hired a maid during confinement, so CL could teach her how to cook. afterwhich, when I return to work, I will ferry maid and bb to mum house lor, at least maid could help my mum on housework. afterwork, then I could play with bb and maid do housework in the house then I could bathe and do my own things...hahahaha..think i plan too far liao. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Mummies: any good maid agencies to intro?

 
Nana: sometimes I could feel strong hb sometimes i couldnt also. so relax, may bb is shy, hiding one corner. Usually I check frequently and talk to bb as well, make it a habit if not I might totally ignore the bb hahahahaha....

 
nana - agree with michele. my gynae said b4 during the scan that if bb turn & face the back, then wun b able to see or hear the hb. so mayb ur bb juz turned around only. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



michele - haha, i sometimes talk to bb too. but still feel very weird doing it. after all, there's no bb bump nw, like talking to a flat stomach like tat. wana stroke the belly, bt touch flat flat de, feel abit foolish. :p

 
angel: u are good that ur stomach still flat, my one already bulging since i am 8 weeks pregnant. this my 11 weeks. close colleagues commented can see my stomach getting bigger too.

now scare stomach get big too fast and dun know if will cause a lot of stretch marks...thinking of starting to apply moisturer/stretch marks creams...but dun know if too fast/kaisu liao ;p

 
haha irene, mine nt very flat lar. Got abit of tummy now, esp since i'm constipating alittle and got lots of wind inside. heheh. I also very scare of stretch marks! Alamak, like tat I super kiasu liao. The moment I get to know tat I'm pregs, I start to apply stretch mark creams. But I dun quite like the texture, cuz very creamy. So I'll only apply tat at nite b4 sleep. In the morning I'll apply my usual body moisturizer. :p

 
wow angel, u very fast..but then i think no harm applying those creams earlier too. take it as moisturizing ur body lor [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

think i shld start applying too...

 
Hehe, kiasu mah. Then feeling fat cuz of preggie liao, dun wana feel ugly if the stretch marks appear early. So start early loh. heheheh~

 
AGREED [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

btw i had read motherhood mag yday and it mention we shld try put on weight slowly/gradually so wun cause so many stretch marks..

 
Ooo izit? That's comforting to know. Did the mag mention any other ways to reduce the marks?



Hee, I go off liao. Chat later or tml bah. Dreaming of food and my bed le. :p

 
bye angel, rest well and have a nice dinner! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

i also v hungry now..but still waiting for hubby to come fetch me..*sigh*



oh mag mentioned applying moisturizer/stretch mark creams shld help some way. but then if i dun remembered wrongly it also mentioned whether one will have stretch marks or not also depend on individual, some little/none...where some more...

 
Brie and jolly- My #1 will be turning 25 mths when no 2 comes...i just hope they'll be good playmates but think i will only find it so when #2 turns 1yr old and can play together with #1.



mylittletiger- i stay in the west!!!



Lilyn- i wouldn't advise on taking too much bird nest cos another colleague of mine also did the same but her girl also had eczema... plus bird nest is known to be an allergen- that's why babies shouldn't take bird nest or may end up having asthma.





Just came back from gynae- finally in the 11th week- just thankful to see bb kicking its leg in the waterbag!

 
Mummies:

How do you know if you got UTI? Urine smell bad?



Stretch mark cream doesn't seem to work for me. I used Palmers brand for 1st kid. My tummy expanded much more in 3rd trimester so it was also extremely itchy, bec skin stretched too fast. Scratched until got blood. *faintz* After birth, stretch marks faded away slowly on its own.

 
Shm12 wow ya darling is kicking? Wow!! I'm in the way to c my gynea.. Hee 20mins more bah.. Juz nw v hungry went causeway pt to eat MOS burger.. :p I sure put on a great deal of wt by the rate I'm eatg..



Hope I get to c more too.. I shd b in my 9th week..

 
For stretch marks I heard some r genetic , no matter hw much they apply oso will hv.. But won't b as bad as don apply.. I hvnt start using.. Actually hvnt buy.. U all started? So fast hee..

 
shm125: tat's so cool... see bb legs kicking... so sweet... my next appt only early may... long weight...



re:stretch mark

i haven't start applying... i think must quickly go buy liao...



having ice cream... yummy... nice weather... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
irene - yah loh, like wat shan said, it's also genetic. Hopefully applying early will give the skin more moisture & elasticity and will reduce the marks bah. :p



holly - *hi-five!* Hope that our kiasu-ism will pay off in the future. hehehehe



jollymummy - har??? the cream i bot is fr Palmer leh. haiz... Hope that it'll help abit bah. I heard that it's the 2nd tri tat we gota b careful of, cuz tat's when the BB's growth rate shoots up. Urs was 3rd tri arh?



shan - hehe, duno whether start so early got use anot, but I started once I got to know tat i'm pregs. :p Hopefully will help bah



h ho - hehe, yeah yeah, faster go buy and apply. nice leh, cold weather eat ice cream is very shiok de. hehehehe, now I kinda feel like eating too. :p later go raid freezer. :p

 
jollymummy & holly,

thanks for sharing your c-sect experience. The recovery does sound more difficult. Because even though I was in pain on day 2 I was walking about the ward and even could go take shower.



Injured tailbone,

Doc said I probably hurt my tailbone during the chaotic pushing and pushing. I had epidural, so when exactly it happened I don't know. On day 1 and 2 at the hospital, the pain down there is just so intense, I don't know where it start from. Until a month later the episiotomy heal ald, still very pain then I realise is tailbone pain. It remained that way until ard 17mths. I have to sit sideways or shift from side to side from time to time. And when I want to move my bowels, there's a sharp pain right in the butt.

 
Morning everyone! Yesterday night's weather was so nice to sleep. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/kao_yawn.gif] Still feel like sleeping some more. :p

 
morning ladies!



is anyone else feeling constantly tired? i thot i'd slept well last nite cuz went to bed early, but i'm STILL tired waking up in the morning..*yawn*!



irene, jollymummy, angel: think stretchmarks is genetic fr what i heard..my mum didn't have any at all from all her kids, and i didn't for my #1 also..but i was very diligent in applying olive oil on my skin every evening after shower, then towelling off the excess oil...this time very lazy tho!

 
lilyn - yes! I also feel tired all the time! I try to take a 15mins snooze break around lunchtime when the ofc is quiet, and feel slightly better after that.



Would olive oil be very oily on the skin? Won't it like stain the clothes or aniting and u feel oily with it on the skin? Hehe, nvr tried that b4. Yah man, sometimes just feel very lazy to apply the creams.

 
good morning ladies... phew!!

Think of wearing that to ofc the day I wana announce. hahaha~ but abit shy still.

hho, i saw my ex-colleague wearing 1 apron over her. She is from china. She told me that that apron was suppose to protect the radiation from computer in office.

 
shan - i dun drink kofi leh, only tea. There was once during very early pregnancy where i drank milo instead of tea (cuz limiting my tea intake), and my colleague commented on it. I just smiled and said feel like a change loh. hehehe~ True true sometimes scare of pple who shove around or those bicycles that rush by u. Tink maybe will slowly start to hint liao bah. Then announce end apr loh. :D
