Oh dear.. Do take care n don't worry so much.

Just walk slower, drink more water n/or milk. Clean lungs stomach n hydrates urself.

Shouldn't be a problem one 10-15min walk.

joyfulmum.. i'm not sure actually, different ppl tell me diff things. lol. i was thinking maybe start with 4 pads per day x 2 weeks?

also, abt the haze, though everything is clearer, there's still tiny tiny particles so dun spend too much time outdoors ya. i didnt use AC today and opened windows in the end my hubby got allergic reaction(his nose sensitive)and my eyes were smarting.
locked up in room is good! but tmr is monday le.. :(

I don't bleed much when i gave birth to my daughter..maybe spotting here and there...so my mum buy those Chinese herbs ie. hong Hua (red flower) ..but still not much..so she say maybe i don't have much to clear..ask my gynae and he say not all women would have massive flow..

Hi,
I bled quite a bit initially. I even had to use 2 maternity pads at the same time. I rem I bled quite long but the flow decreased slowly each day. First few days can b pretty heavy. Even on my girl's full mth celebration I was still bleeding. After which, due to breastfeeding, my menses stopped for 9mths.

Hi joyfulmum,

JTS, I gave birth my son on dec'05, and breastfeed him all the way till i gave birth to my daughter. Menses stop for 18mths, my daughter was born on April'08. So it is still quite close.
