I m also feeling super tired since few weeks back and keep wanting to sleep more despite I have slept for 10 hours. I feel like going back to 1st trim the feeling of extreme tiredness.
My mum will be making brown rice water for me to drink as drinking too much longan red dates tea will make me feel thirsty. I have bought nursing tea and will drink during confinement. Have not buy the herbs yet as the medical hall boss told my mum to get them nearer to my delivery date to ensure freshness.

Oh cannot keep too long?? I have a lot of the packets of herbs, mostly from Eu Yan Sang... Passed to me by a colleague who didn't finish using all of hers. Think I better check if there is a expiry date.

From my last checkup at 32 weeks, gynae said my baby is breech=( going for my check up next week..by then will be 34 weeks + 5days..hopefully my bb will have turned..
I tried locating bb's position using the 'spinning babies' website..bt just cant figure it out lol he seems to be moving all around. But usually when the head is down, will the bb still turn ?

Eleanor, mine also breech... So far she is still kicking in the same locations as when gynae scanned her as upright, so I'm assuming she hasn't turned either. Yes even if baby turns she can still flip back ): unless she is engaged with head in the pelvic bone I think.

I just went for check up, at 33 weeks baby weighted 2.5kg which is above normal weight 2.1kg :( gynae asked me to control my diet less carbo and less sweets in these 2 weeks before the next check up.

What snacks usually do you all mums/mums to be eat ya? Coz recently I feel my heartburn getting worst.. feels hungry every 2 hrs..

Reffine mine is "overweight" too, 2.3kg at 33 weeks but my gynae doesn't seem very concerned. He just joked about baby's chubby cheeks that can be seen on the ultrasound and said that she will be a big baby. But he never told me to cut down on sweets/food... Suspect that my baby could have put on more weight because of all the CNY feasting hehe. Am trying to eat more fruits and veg this week but it's hard... I'm still snacking on potato chips and pineapple tarts *guilty* I get hungry easily too.

Jadeite, for me I think too many sweet drinks and sweet treats recently including chocolates hehe.. I passed my glucose test last few months back so was not controlling myself on sweets.. but then due to this, next appt my gynae willl check my glucose level again :(

I also see from the ultrasound, she's chubby cheeks and looks like a 35 weeks baby.. Must start controlling my diet from today onwards.. :)

hi all,

as much as i want my baby to be in the march baby forum, i delivered already on 4 Feb :)
premature at 34 weeks and 3 days - 1.9kg

i was bleeding like water tap and apparently, my water bag actually burst already and i was having contractions of 3 min interval each time.

i was rushed to KKH instead of what i planned to - Mt A because i called the ambulance and they will send to a govt hospital.

overall, i must say KKH took care of me well even i was in a 5 bedder and asked for non specialist to operate C sect, spinal on me. i did not go for GA because i want my baby to be awake.

baby is healthy just that her lungs are not strong so she stayed in ICU first :(
now she's in special nursery and having mild jaundice

I am happily breast feeding at 3 hourly interval now.. anything you need to ask, can ask me :)

have a good pregnancy and enjoy while it last.. me and my hubby miss me being pregnant.. feeling her kicks...

now i am discharged but baby still in hospital.. feels quite heartache so I am just praying and waiting...

Congrats to u zhumei, baby will get better with the care from kkh! Meantime u take good care of yourself ya hugs!!!
 
Eleanor, your baby turned already?

mine was also breech at 32 weeks. my gynae got me to do some exercises and baby turned at 34 weeks! you might want to try? basically she asked me to go on all 4 fours, like child's pose in yoga, except that you stretch out your back (tummy above floor, not legs) like a cat stretch. like this: http://im.rediff.com/getahead/2009/jul/14yoga5.jpg

hope this helps!

just to share something dumb with you girls.

went for another prenatal massage over the weekend (at 34+weeks). Then when I reach home, was lying on the sofa and I suddenly shouted out to my hubby. "OMG, stomach pain!!" My hubby rush out from the room, looking fluster and ask, so we need to go hospital now!? So how, call taxi? take ambulance etc....

It was pretty hilarious looking at him at the same time I also a bit stress. Cause it was then I realise how unprepared we both were. Hahahaha.
