EDD Nov 2012 mummies here

I don't feel baby moving when it's stretched till tummy is hard. So it's normal to get it a few times a day hmmm, I usually get it after I've eaten. Nature, you so cute! Only when you shower hehehhe

Today woke up with menstrual cramps...I guess as we move closer to edd, the cramps will get more

Thanks Lyndi! Probably I'll go get Spoiled Mama too, been using different products like aloe vera and snake powder but the itch comes back really soon! It's affecting my sleep at night! :(

Hey, I developed pretty bad rashes on my tummy n my arms. My doc said it was pregnancy induced but to put calamine lotion to soothe it. That worked and now no more rashes, just itching on my tummy once in awhile.
Maybe you can try that first?

I was using Bio-oil (night time only cos a little oily) and "Spoiled Mama" cream (day time). Think the oil somehow made me more itchy although I heard of people swearing by it. The cream doesn't make me itch as much so now I'm just using the cream and stopped using the oil.

Thanks Katherine for the clarification! Can we use aloe vera gels as normal skin lotion for our babies?

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear enough. What my gf meant is that if baby does not have rashes, don't apply rash cream because it contains minerals like zinc. Instead apply skin cream or lotion so the incidence of rashes will be reduced. She is using sebamed skin cream, not rash cream.

Thanks Nature for the recommendation! Where can I get this? Only via online?

Yeah, unfortunately but delivery is free if i dont rem wrongly.
Its really good, it helps prevent sunburnt and sooth my heat rash on my face, itch on my tummy and even insect bites! =)
Best result is to put in the fridge so its really cool when you apply on!

My friend who is selling herbalife products also recommended their aloe Vera gels. Said its good for rashes etc as compared to other normal creams. She used it on her kids but I'm not sure if it is okay for baby skin
 
Hi baby eskimo

I ate 2 days cough syrup n lozenges.. Then stop a few days...but there seems to have this white phlegm stuck at throat n throat still feel weird. It's 2 weeks areadi..these 2 weeks, I only eat 5 days antibotics...think I better continue the cough syrup n lozenges by gynae.. Coz can't eat good food for bb these 2 weeks Liao. :) feel very bad to be sick especially near edd.

Hi katherine

Think I complain abt tummy hard if I walk these few days.. But if i don't go shopping & rest at home, then tummy not so hard. So that time was wondering anyone of u hv hard tummy recently? But think some mummies hv too..so should be ok.. Just think better don't walk too much if harden. I also a lot of Braxton hicks everyday. Quite worry too. :)
 
Hi barneybaby,

Take care.... Don't drink honey or cold drinks or take chicken, they add to the phlegm. Tcm beliefs lah but I think they do work...eat more fish for protein instead and oh, stay off fruits. My tcm warned me that fruits will give phlegm to baby
 
Hi barneybaby,
You have to keep yourself healthy, strong for delivery too... yes, only you will know better what to do. Hope you get well soon... be strong! I take scotts emulsion (cod liver oil) sometimes (1 big spoon occasionally) when i come in contact with sick people to boost immunity. Dont know if it will help, but if you want to try, take in moderation only.
 
I having cough too :( but my stuffy nose got better after my hubby bought me the eurospace purifier. Think really need one cos maybe I doing all the spring cleaning n the dust plus the haze... Saw one of my fren bb today.. So adorable. Can't wait to see mine.. Anyone of u giving birth in mt Alvernia ?
