Hi mssaggi, I don't think we will need the breastpump unless its C-section?? Not sure either.

Cos as far as I am in for, I will go fully direct latch on with no pumping at all during the first week or so...direct latch on would be the most efficient way to increase milk supply.
I think it's advisable to bring cos mayb bb won't latch on or our breast too engorged n nd to pump out? Just my opinion

Today I had d worst feel. Woke up n there was yellow brownish discharge which is totally diff from our norm. Suspected its d mucus plug! Called up my gynae n TMC hotline, they oso think its mucus plug n advised me to go down for a check at clinic or labour ward. Din go in d end cos 2nd time to toilet no more discharge n dun feel any contraction as they will put me on ctg machine again to check. Had a contraction tat last quite long n so painful. Worst menstrual cramp feel wif horrible back ache as in gg to break my bone. Dizzy n feel vomiting n diarrhea cramp, so I went to toilet again. Dun feel any better. Can't sit can't lay down, nothing at all helps. After few hrs only subside.

Not sure when will b D day??? A little regret to go for natural. :-/

Hi Apr Gal,

I had the horrible cramps n lower back, hips ache (as if they are tearing apart) and my Gynae gave me a prescription of Ventolin (which last time I use it for asthma).
it came on every 3 - 4 hours, and when the cramps hit me, I feel the urge of diarrhea n feel nausea (really start vommitting). But I did not experience bleeding.
It got better (as in no more diarrhea n vommitting), cramps n contractions still comes on n off.

my comfort remedy are as follows:-
sit up on a chair (with proper back cushion n bum cushion), do deep breathing (like yoga) - breathe in hold 5 secs, slowly breathe out.
Concentrate on your breathing and do it a for abt 10 cycles.

If the pain comes again, I change approach: pant pant blow
(just like what I was taught in antenatal class for 1st stage of labour.
The main purpose is to divert all attention on your breathing n let your brain forget about the pain signals.

Hope this will help as a temporary relief. We are here for you: do update us on your well being, k?

hugs, Princess CC

wow Apr gal, sounds like your body is prepping you for the big day..you will meet your princess soon :)
going all natural without any form or minimal drugs will benefit your baby when she comes out. So hang in there, women are created to bear childbirth...
The breathing techniques suggested by Princess CC sounds like a good method to counter the labour contractions and take the mind off the contraction discomfort.

Hang in there babe

Hi Apr gal
YOu need to take care yourself. Did you doctor tell you what symptom you should have before you can proceed to hospital?

Baby is dancing alot too. Even wen during a walk to nearby ntuc, he'll moved - which is oh so uncomfortable & made me stop my pace till he shift to another position... >_<*

Hi Putri
YOu must take care yourself. We are at last trimester already. We need to take extra care ourself.

I read usually if u hv regular contraction every 5 mins in one hour/ red blood/ water bag burst. If go in too early either ask u go home or spend unnecessary time there. But of curse if anything strange must call them n go for check up. Eg green or yellow urine which shd b bb poo poo or strange colour discharge which can b infection.
