my gynae says since I am drinkin am mum,so no need to eat obimin scare too over supply of vitamins. He says take either obimin or the am mum milk. so I choose milk as I prefer to get vitamins from the milk , cheese etc naturally lo.

Wa.. thread is moving fast.. I nvr drink milk at all cos I will puke.. tat's y my gynae gave me calcium.. im still taking fish oil and multivit, nvr heard tat fish oil will interfere with labour leh.. as for coconut.. im drinking once a wk since 4 wks ago.. im nw 37 wks.. I tink as long as u dun drink too much, it should nt induce labour la.. so e key is everything in moderation.. my fren who recently delivered said her bb is covered in heat rash at birth.. the pd said she ate too heaty food during pregnancy.. so I a bit scared.. tinking of drinking coconut twice a wk now.. hahaha..

My girl is extremely sticky now too.. smetimes realli buay tahan.. I tried to let her cry it out but I cant bear.. after a few seconds I jiu give in le.. cry too much like nt gd for her oso.. later she will have a tough time sleeping at night.. worse still keep waking up cos of nightmares.. I hope things will get better once #2 is out.. though I tink things will prob jus get worse cos there's now 2 babies fighting for attention..

heaty food as in fried food or those red dates drink, herbal soup etc? ya lo, think ususally kids are attached more to the mother rather than father. so when during preg, the mother will be q tired out for the #1 and coming #2 ba..

oh fast food is so terribly good - been eating it but not too much. but i crave for marks and spencer biscuits now. always eat more than my stomach can take then suffer after that cos the tummy has become smaller - greedy me.
 
Hello All May Mummies..

I have been trying to catch up on the discussion :) Last week got admitted to Mt A as gynae says that tummy feels tight.. then put me on drip.. for 3 days of hospitalisation.. Then after that gave me a patch to stick everyday now during hospitalisation leave.. to prevent contractions...Sigh.. My edd is also mid may.. As my job requires me to walk fast and walk alot, she said these may cause pre term labour.. I am also praying hard that I will only give birth in Mid May.. I also did the strep B test during my 34 weeks appt last week.. hope everything okay.. tomorrow is another appt.. Hope I can go back to work soon.. Sigh.. As a first time mummy, I have always thought that walking alot is good for easy labour.. Now I am afraid.. No longer walking so fast already.. Does any experienced mummies here face the same problem before too? Thank you for sharing :)

Hi maybellinesee! Hmm.. actualli e prenatal class I went too long ago says try not to walk too much in the initial weeks.. it is good to walk and exercise but not too much as it will lead to preterm labour.. and we are onli encouraged to walk 'like a dog' after 36wks.. I tink tat prob explains y u are having contractions so early.. dun push urself too hard.. I read an article tat says wen we are in third trimester, we should push ourselves to walk more.. on a scale of 1 to 10 which 10 being most strenuous, aim for a 6, not 10 though.. Im nw at 37wks.. gynae oso advise I walk more but dun overexert myself..
 
contractions and walking

Ahh.. thx Lingz12... I am now 35 weeks plus... I am quite fearful of having to stay in hospital again hence now I walk really slowly... even slower than old woman... hate the hospital stay.. but thanks alot for yoir advise.. haha I eat fast food too.. dont know why the cravings also.. :)

Hey mrsmaybellinese! hope you're feeling better now! Do take some rest and walk slowly.. Hmm i used to be in sales job and walk alot, travel alot .. V fast paced.. I carried things and worked during my 1st pregnancy.. Hmm walking alot helped in a faster delivery.. But maybe you exerted abit more.. Do take a breather.. :)

Wah i bought a coconut frm market but yet to chop open and drink! hubby no time! maybe tml morning ask him to cut! Hmm my friend told me not to drink at night leh.. Too cooling?? I'm feeling so heaty.. Sweat n sweat, got pimple pop out liao.. Heat rashes.. Sighhh... I need to cool off! What else can i eat? I don't take fastfood.. Hmm hubby n i kind of quitted it before i had my #1... On off got take some fries.. We prefer to go for normal cooked food instead.. Healthier...

Hmm i can't wait for my gynae appt tml! Wanna see how baby has progressed! :p keep having the feeling that baby might come early when all is not prepared! Argh... :p one part of me wanna get over and done with so that i'm not so restricted by my tummy.. Another part of me feels like i wanna spend more time w #1 and want to do more with her before we get stuck for next few mths.. Sighh mixed feelings... I also guilty that i nv talk to #2 inside me.. Nv rested for her and almost always too busy to remember i got her inside me lol.. Super guilty ..

Yup looking forward .. 36 weeks tomorrow! :p

Eh? I on aircon during my confinement leh.. Coz aircon just keeps the environment cool and dry.. Better than fan which blows around humid and hot air.. I felt ok.. Besides its gonna be super hot during May-june period and add on breastfeeding.. Baby's cheeks and tummy stuck to our breasts and tummy.. Its super hot.. My #1 had heat rash cum milk rash on her cheeks even with aircon on last time haha.. As long as u don't turn it till u feel cold.. Just 26deg room temp will be comfy.. :)

Wah as mum of 2 .. I really don't know how i can manage... Lol jiayou on ur no.1! Have you gotten everything ready? Anytime lloh.. Hahaa
 
Haha... I m so totally not ready.. haven't even pack hospital bag... haha :) thanks for the well wishes meltie :) really hope baby won't come so soon as I still have alot of work left undone... need to finish up.. sigh... anw so happy for you.. 36 weeks alr.. jiayou jiayou :) psst.. I also kept waking up to go toilet n tummy super itchy.. so also woke up to apply stretch mark cream.. :p
