hihi
i have given birth to baby boy Jaden on 25th Sept (EDD supposed to be 15 Oct) by induced normal birth due to umbilical cord around the neck.
The nurse will help you to shave... they will only shave the part near the anus....actually they are quite careful and experienced...dun worry...

I'm worried. Today, its still a bit greenish. Called clinic but nobody picks up. I guess its their off day. Next check up is Thurs but I think I'll call on Monday to ask already, won't wait until then.

Hi Nattynat,

Actually how is the contraction like? is it like menses cramp? I hvnt pack my bag yet, think hv to pack it today in case any time bb want to come out. Hopefully wait for two more weeks at least my bb can gain more weight. Did your husband accompany u to the delivery room?

Hi, if u r first time mum, ur uterus will 'lighten' or drop lower in ur pelvis pretty early, like few weeks before birth. Baby usually also turn head down ard 36weeks which is gd news as it's gd position for natural birth. I think labour is near but not so near like within a day or smth. Just get ready ur hospital bag.

Look out for signs of labour like bloody show, regular n frequent contractions and water bag burst/ amniotic fluid leak.

As for the discharge test, I think ur doc is testing for vagina infection. It's quite common during preg. Just wait for the results n doc will advise wat to do. If there's infection, mayb he'll give u antibiotics.

Hello Mummies,

I went for my week 38 check up last Saturday. My baby is 3.283 kgs and my total weight gain is about 7kg as off last saturday. My gynae commented that I might deliver my baby gal earlier than EDD (16 Oct). It would be any time from 9 Oct onwards.. Am kinda nervous and excited now :p

Times will pass very fast. I'm on 36 weeks and 2 days now, maybe delivering anytime from now also. When you slp, remb to put ur leg up to reduce the water retention.

Didy,

How heavy is your baby now? Try to drink red dates water to reduce the water retention.. :)

Actually I opt for c-sect, my gynae arrange it on 10 Oct 11 but now consider wan to change to natural birth. If I go for c-sect, I have to go for blood test this Fri afternoon. My mum n my sis advice me to go for natural birth. If I go for natural birth, wondering should I take start my maternity leave on 10 Oct onwards or 17 Oct onwards? any advice?

Thanks Yinching... :)

Cos doc confirmed contractions has started and baby already weigh 3.43 kg last week.. so doc is afraid that baby might want to come out anytime and suggest we go for earlier c section to prevent emergencies cos he feel that baby is ready to be delivered.... XD
