May I no wats d benefit of delaying cord cutting?
Hi apr gal,
I read about it, that delayed cord clamping can help baby to achieve a normal blood volume at birth, to maintain a normal oxygen supply during the transition to breathing at birth, to achieve a normal total body iron at birth, the mother to have a normal and uncomplicated placental birth and blood loss.

Maybe check with your gynae what's his/her point of view on that.

Apr gal...my sis actually commented that it's easier to pull up the ahh bra from bottom..but i find that with our belly, it should be mission impossible for us... i wear it from the top, and find it ok.. maybe just because my sis is bigger in size than me..

I think I will still wear from top. Pull up from bottom seems a little impossible for me too!

I signed up stem cord, didn't buy for elder one, so got it this time. Different package, can pay thru the dollar to dollar account, so I think still ok. It's only up to certain age (can't remember is 18 or 21) and later age package has not calculated yet if our child still want to continue it.

i signed up with cord life...those giving birth in TMC..if have the FBI card, have discount.. i took up the package for 21 yrs..1 lump sum to be paid with the CDA account...when baby 21 yrs old..then let him decide...not sure if i'm correct...i did a rough comparison..cordlife seems to be slightly cheaper than stem cord (or maybe it's because I have the FBI card discount)..

Wah so many boys from the score board ya..
I havent bought anything as well, except for a few baby clothes here and there. and 2pieces cloth diapers to try2 (from alva baby).

Checked with stemcord for their pricing. $1380 for signing up (incl collection of cord blood and 1st yr waiver fee) and $275/yr frm 2nd yr onwards. This is for the annual package price.

Does anyone know how to help the placenta to go up during pregnancy?was told by gynae at week24 tt my placenta was lying low, borderline. Kinda worried here.
 
I had low lying placenta too during my #1 gynae says will move up as baby grows. It really did went up when i was due for labour. Try not to stand too much n too long if possible. Gynae will not suggest u to get any massage on ur bump so nth much can be done. But there are jamu massage lady who says they can try help adjust a bit. Better check with gynae if u intend to get a massage :)
