I have tried blue egg, lansinoh & pigeon. My fav is still lansinoh coz it's the flattest when frozen. The rest will bulge out (I freeze flat & stand them up after that to store) & so will not stand as nicely when frozen & takes up more space. I have limited space in my freezer so lansinoh is my...
My baby sleeps with us once CL went back.easier for me to nurse her at night & I'm afraid I wwill not hear her cries if she sleep alone.
I try to make it a habit to put her in her cot but she doesn't like it... So most days she ends up sleeping with me! Hubs has gotten used to sleeping on the...
Hihi! I delivered at raffles :p how does your baby play? Mine just sleep eat & poop! Lol. V xiong.. She does have wakeful hours mostly at night for v short while & drifts of to sleep v fast
Did ur doc advise on exercises u can do to encourage baby to turn? My baby turned a late too so doc advised me to hug my knees to my chest (I dunno how tt was supposed to help). I also searched on the net and many said to rest head on pillow, butt in the air and hold it there for a few minutes...
That's v true. Try to ban visitors if possible... I found that I rested better when it's just CL, me and maid at home. While te visitors mean well, I felt v irritated and annoyed with them after awhile :p
It's doable but vvvvv xiong! Any other help? Maid, hubby? My CL pangseh me and I had to struggle for 2 nights (1 night alone coz hubby had to work e next day) & it was vvv xiong. Thankfully my mums friend came to help us out. With a CL, I get uninterrupted sleep at night (unless wake up to pump)...
When the milk first came in, I was vvv engorged. Even after feeding direct and pumping, still hurts. So I had to pump & let her latch in many many many times. In the night pain was so bad I got up to pump... After feeding & pumping, I will hurt within 5min as it fills up again!
But after more...
Congrats babe! My girl came our 2 Days before :p I was 2
dilated the day before, next day passed out mucus plug, went to labour ward & doc decided to admit. Girl popped out next morning 1am! Phew
Hi all! I gave birth about 1.5 wks ago at 38 weeks. Trying to settle down with the baby. My CL has been giving me a lot of trouble and left yesterday! Lucky we managed to find help... Breastfeeding is super duper painful but I'm trying to endure! The engorgement was v bad but has been getting...
my doc said if i squat and cough and the pad or underwear gets wet, most likely water bag broke or leak, to go to hospital within an hour.
same if i get the bloody show.
yeah try asking your gynae first... i have a few boxes that were gifted to me and wanted to start taking but dunno why i brought it up during a visit and she told me not to take. i did ask her about tonics and all, she said ok too. but im afraid to drink too much, wait baby too big!
erm my gynae actually advised me not to take the bottle type of chicken essence. coz it contains stimulants so you will be prone to keloids. quite surprised actually but just to be safe i'm listening to her. she says those double boiled chicken soup is fine though, abotu once a week is ok.
apparently its not good for the baby's hip and spine development coz the baby dangles from the crotch.. you can google about it :) https://www.google.com/search?q=baby+bjorn+hip+and+spine&rls=com.microsoft:en-gb:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7SKPT_en
from the reviews, alot...
can get from kiddy palace then :) i tried the watsons cotton disposable undies before when i travelled and they were quite comfy, hope they work this time!
ooh i thought thick pads will help cushion the area :p i think i will bring both the normal and maternity pads to the hospital, so kiasu!
which pump did you get? i think some comes with a bag :) mine is the medela freestyle so it comes with a bag. not sure if i should charge it beforehand tho..
i bought the adhesive type :) i guess if you go for emergency c-sect, the hospital will provide the loop type of pads first, you can always get your hubby to buy from the pharmacy, etc. the adhesive typse will still come in useful later on?
my colleague who had a c-sect said the nurse helped her tie. think they have to use loop coz of the wound.
oh i didnt know infection is v common in last tri. i think i'm having mild infection now too... no other symptons other than a very uncomfortable feeling and pressure at my bladder area...
