So can we wear nursing bras instead of maternity bras throughout the pregnancy cuz I don't want to waste money buying two types of bra? If I buy nursing bras, are they big enough to support our bustline? Any concern?

Omg, belz, u have no morning sickness!? U have nvr vomited or felt nauseous? I'm so envious!!! My fren was the same, smooth pregnancy... Wonder why it affects some of us so badly while others have no symptoms at all? Is it genetic too? So far, I have vomited less than 5 times but the nausea is killing me. It hasn't die down and I'm Aldy 15 weeks. Doc says it will most probably continue throughout the pregnancy for some and I have no appetite too...

I need new bras too, I used to be a 36B but lost some weight and became 34B. Now even the 36Bs are too tight. Contemplating if i should get those non-wire bras, marks&spencer has them..not too exp. or should i just get nursing bras..but nursing bras quite ugly and more exp.

I read somewhere before that we should buy nursing bras that's once size bigger than the size right before delivery. So does it mean that after we delivery and start breast feeding, our bustline gonna expand again?

For me, my belly has been showing even at 11 weeks, a little bulge.
I have bought maternity wear already. Even at home, I am in my husband's basketball shorts. So ghetto looking :)

Lol I jus bought nursing bras and nursing dresses from gmarket lol...

Think it's better to buy nursing dresses becuz u can still wear them when u r breast feeding... There's a hole/opening at the bust area for your convenience... Wonder if we can still fit into nursing dress when Tummy gets bigger... Didn't consider that lol

Bloatedness plus my growing baby has made my tummy stick out since 11 weeks, too! Haha. alag, ghetto is cool!

I've resorted to wearing those one-piece dress nighties at home, with buttons down the front so that i can breastfeed in those PJs at home in future.

Hi all,

Sorry to interrupt but just to share this, I have brand new Dr Brown milk bottles for sale. They are made in USA and BPA free. Both standard and wide neck bottles. Dr Brown is a very good bottle to tackle colic problem for babies. Pls note that the Dr Browns sold in SG retail stores are Made in China. Mine is made in USA and the price is lower than the ones sold in SG retail stores.



Interested can email me at yingzyleong@gmail.com

Cheshire - I just bought a wireless bra from M&S as there was a sale n i've become a little bigger. Got a rather comfy one at $30 (original price was $59). :) I previously bought a nursing bra from there as well n it was ex as there wasn't a sale ($79) but comfy too! Decided on a wireless normal bra this time as the SA at Mothercare advised that size would change again at abt 7 mths. After delivery, there would be engorgement too so I only bought one now to tide me over before investing in the bigger sizes for future. For those, will get nursing bras.

Hello mummies,


Just to share resources... discount code LGF536 at iHerb.com!


I just bought some baby and mum products by Earth Mama Angel Baby at iHerb.com, and they gave me a discount code to share with others.


Earth Mama's natural products are pretty well-reviewed, and my friends who gave birth also recommended them - such Nipple Butter, Bottom Balm for Babies, New Mama Bottom Spray (v good for after giving birth to keep stitches area from getting infected and to relieve pain). You can google it to read about it. This US website iHerb sells stuff much cheaper than Singapore stores, and also sells health supplements and products too.


When you enter the code LGF536 in their shopping cart (right before check-out) you will receive a discount on your first order.


- If the order totals more than $40, you will receive $10 off
- If the order totals less than $40, you will save $5


Happy shopping, ladies!

Hey belz, I dont think it's true.. My grandma used to say that from the shape of the tummy you can actually deduce the gender of the baby. Apparently, they guess it wrongly for both my cousin and elder sis. ^^ I guess the accurate one will be from the Ultrascan :)

Hi Alag, the nursing bra have an additional piece that is removable on either side of the cup. This allow you to breastfeed your baby easier.
I bought my nusing bra from Gmarket, it's quite affordable, and the pattern is quite nice too.

My stomach is very bloated one day and it can just be less bloated another day. Some people can tell that im pregnant.. :)

Can i check with you ladies if you have started continuing your "intimacy" with your hubby? My husband and I were quite skeptical if we can continue since we are afraid of hurting the baby. I read up online, apparently everyone claims that it is definitely safe to continue your intimacy. :eek:
