kcws and Sunbeams: I've a slipped disc and scoliosis so cannot use epidural at all according to anesthetist. My only form of pain relief is via IV drip self controlled anesthesia which my gynae says can be hard to time cos have to press the button myself when contractions come. If too early or late, doesn't help.

So I either have to tough it out or end up emergency c-sect via GA if anything happens. I still cannot decide!

I was initially very firm on elective c-sect via GA. But we hope to have more kids all a year apart so I'm worried I won't have enough time to heal if I do c-sect. Sigh.

I'm talking to baby to stay in as long as possible! Though it gets tiring and tougher to sleep, I really enjoy being pregnant and feeling baby moving inside! It's just me and baby now and so calm. Hahahah!

Plus, my brother is getting married next weekend so I want to be able to attend his wedding! LOL.

10 times/hour? wow.
My gynae told me 10 times/day.
Mine kicks hard, so hard until my tummy goes slanted until she takes back her kick or punch.

Thanku82- nope. Think the swap test is just once.
but I need to be on drip before the labour starts though or something along that line.
skt - my tummy slants too at an angle! Ha.. But not every time. Sometimes so gentle that I wonder If he's ok! Hmm

Raoow, I am doing natural delivery. My gynae said that our grandmother can do it, why cant I do it? Quite a challenge though. I think I will try to psycho myself that I waited my boy for 9 months and within many hours later I will be able to see him. He is also fighting his way out from the womb. So we must work hard together to see each other.

My gynae checked me for dilation today, and she said still too early, maybe another two weeks. So guess I will deliver close to my EDD

Edd is 10th. I've been walking (via shopping) but it gets tiring and hard to sleep at night.

My gynae asked me to walk down staircase instead of shopping. I try to do squatting as it helps baby to drop into pelvis. The other way is sitting on a ball, too bad I don't have it. My EDD is 15th.

Yiks, I visited gynae today. She said my boy still in high position n might be overdue. He is weighing 3.1kg at the end of 38 weeks . Every week he will gain 200g. Strangely, this week he gains only 100g. I am so upset.
