EDD in Sept 2011

Hi all mummies,

Just wondering of any of you have problems getting to sleep in the night?

I can sleep in the afternoon but having serious problem sleeping in the night now a days :(
slp in the afternoon? u not working? well... i m a working mum... i cant slp in the afternoon.=( so at night sure KO on my bed .. haas... but i guess slpless night will haunt me very soon cos i start to run toilet in the middle of the night... =( how many weeks u pregnant?
 
Hellooo...

I feel abit down and depressed now. Visited gynae on last Sat. OMG! Baby now weighs 1.7kg at Wk 29 which is way way too heavy. Gynae tells me that from now on, bb and me must go on diet and minimize weight gain! :( but one good thing is bb's head is already down. hopefully he wun turn and be in breech position.

mummies, can give me some suggestions what food to take that can help to control my weight gain?
bb big is good... mine is way too small... 30 weeks at 1390gram... well... i m gaining weight but BB IS NOT. well... mayb for u... try not to snack and eat supper... n jus eat proper meals and take ur dinner slightly earlier. cos u cannot go on diet.... bb is constantly growing n need the nutrients n food u take in...

don't worry about it.. i've actually heard of mommies whose babies are 3.7kg at birth.. ownself push.. if you're afraid, go on a "diet" like eating less meat, more veges, drink less milk take less eggs, eat less carbo.

And no more SWEET stuff.. all X away!! lolz..

did you ask ur gynae why ur baby not taking in much? u're gaining weight but baby not.. is there something wrong going in there or it's just that u're EATING too LITTLE!! and you think u eat too much.. and gain 5kg is a lot to u already =x

I had the same problem as you!!.. i could sleep for about 2 to 3 weeks straight at night and i really broke down.. i took the time to hibernate during the weekends. At night if really can't sleep, all i did was sit up on the bed and rest. No choice.. can't take sleeping pills, can't anyhow take leave also. So just tahan

I do the same as Charlottetan, tire myself out then sure KO at night. For me I cant sleep cos my legs have weird tingly sensations. Rub some heating oil, prop legs higher on some pillows and I'm gone! Oooh for me I take hot cocoa before sleep. And I have no problems with chocolate. I only get breathless going up stairs. :)

Carisella, just gobble no need chew?!? Ahahahahaha.... If choke how? Hehehehe....

So how's everyone's baby shopping? I'm done with clothes, swaddle wraps, booties, mittens etc & toiletries. But still haven't find my 'dream' baby bedding set. Ahahahaha.... Left only that to buy & tub plus some other small stuff. Anyone used Pupsik studio sling before? They have new designs now, so pretty.

charlotte, i envy you k! how i wish my bb absorb less so that he will not be obese! you try taking in more protein, maternal milk, durians, ice cream etc. that should help to beef up your bb.

carisella, gynae predict that at the rate I'm gg, bb will be more than 4kg at birth. so he said, i really need to control diet now. 100% no sugar and reduce carbo intake. now trying to reduce the amount of food i take at every meal, n finding healthy alternatives for snacks. sighzzz...

yanqin, try taking warm milk before sleeping or listen to classical music. that will helps.

i bought most of the stuff for bb already. however, til now, my wonderful MIL still refuses to pass me those bags of handme down clothes. grrrrrr... duno what she wants man! now pending on my list are those items more for me like nursing bras, disposable panties, maternity pads, etc. oh and have not buy bb cot's bed linen.
