Hi all, I am 37+ weeks pregnant and and is tested strep B positive, my gynae mentioned that the index is rather high. I wanted to go for natural delivery initially but is now quite worried that the bacteria will spread to my baby. Asked my gynae whether I can opt for c-sect to minimise the risk...

Hi Susannanation, yes it is contraction. My menstrual cramp has been ongoing for the past 2 weeks before I went to consult my gynae. My gynae actually said that there is a possibility that I might be going into pre-term labour, therefore prescribed me with a medication to relax my uterus and...

Hi autumnfall, can add me to the Facebook group? My email add is jkel_83@yahoo.com.sg Recently I am also experiencing menstrual cramp. My gynae has prescribed me a medication to reduce contraction. Any mummies also on such medication? I am worried of going into pre-term labour as I am only 34...

Thanks Ryca! Will try ur recipe of black chicken soup boiled with coconut nearer to my EDD.:)

Congrats! Wow, really impressed with mummies who can deliver without epidural. Best wishes to you and ur baby. :)

Smilem, did you opt or did the doctor suggest you to go for c-sect? My baby has also turn head down and the doc has not mention anything abt the mode of delivery. I suppose he is pro-natural, just like most of the gynaes in KKH.

Thanks Smilem :)

Neymo mummy, I love avocado milk shake too. But I try to ask for less sugary syrup as I am afraid of getting diabetes. I have tried formula milk-Similac Mum but I dun really like it, so I stick to fresh milk.

Thanks Neymo:) I have increased my intake of dairy products every day. Like 2 glasses of fresh milk daily, and on alternate days, i will have yoghurt, milk shakes. Besides that, I also took durians once. I have put on about 1kg these 2 weeks as well. Haha..:)

Hi Mummies, Just went for my gynae check up. I am so glad that my baby has put on about 800g in 2 weeks. He was 1.2kg at 30wks 4 days. Now he is 2kg at 32 wks 4 days. Thanks to all mummies who have given me advices on how to gain my baby's weight. My gynae is happy with my baby's weight now and...

Hi Teen09 mummy, thanks for sharing. Glad to see that ur baby continues to grow well. :) Hopefully my baby knows that mummy is working hard, so that he will strive to grow at a faster rate too. Let's jia you together. :)

Thanks Ryca, I take black chicken soup once every month since my second trimester, but I have not try to boil it with coconut. It is something new to me. My husband forbids me from taking coconut now. Will probably try it once I have reached 37 weeks. :)

Hi Happymummy1994, I do eat a lot. Thus far, I have gained 13kg. Guess most of the weight has gone to me instead of my baby.

Sure :) Hopefully will bring good news to all of you on my next Gynae visit.

Dear cagnes and NeyMO for both your replies. I also comtemplate eating durians but can't as I just recovered from flu and sorethroat. cagnes mummy, yah, i think that lack of sleep might be a factor as well. Probably due to stress from work, I can't seem to sleep well at night. I think it might...
