- 2019-12-23Hi mummies, how do you keep your LO cool without depending on aircon?
My LO will get angry when he is feeling hot on his back so we had been letting him sleep in his sarong in the day. At night we will turn the aircon on so he have no problem sleeping in his bed. But as he is 4 months old now, he start moving alot in his sarong. (For some reason, he like to face down in his sarong in tummy time position). I wanted him to drop the habit and sleep in his own bed in the day but do not like the idea of having the aircon on 24hr as it will dry up his skin.
Any good suggestion from mummies will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance. ?

Need help in advising! My wife is still in her 1st trimester (about 10 weeks plus) and most of the time she has itch around her adominal area and she kept scratching.

- 2019-12-26Hi Mummies! Really need advice on this matter as I’m a first-time mother.
I’m currently doing freelance work and also finding a full time job. I want to put my now 4 month baby in infant care once I get a job. In the meantime, I can take care of him while job searching. However, the job market is unpredictable and I’m not sure how long it will be till I get a job - could be months.
1) When should I register my baby for infant care? Now (while finding a job) or once I get a job?
2) Is it a guaranteed admission once I register to put my child in X Infant Care Centre? Or will there be a waiting list? If so, how long is the usual wait time?
3) My husband is working full time with an income of $3500 while my freelance income can fetch about $1200-$1800 monthly. Is there a subsidy for mothers who are finding a job?
Thank you in advance!

- 2019-12-27Hi mummies, I am at 29 weeks.
I've been having slight fever and very bad headache the past few days with slight cough. It's on and off fever. Usually in the day will have for few hours then after will be okay but at night it will come back just before bedtime. I've been to GP and only able to prescribe me paracetamol. It's not really effective. I feel like my fever, headache and cough is getting worst despite consuming paracetamol. May I know if there is anything else I can do to help myself?

- 2019-12-27My baby coming to one month old feeds more than 10x a day as she only drinks about 60ml each time. At certain times she can feed every hour and take in only 30-60ml each feed. She is bottle fed ebm and formula btw. We have tried to give her more milk per session but she just won't finish it as she usually falls asleep after about 60ml or so. Totally clueless how to make her drink more so can decrease the number of feeds.
My confinement nanny is leaving tmr and I will be taking care of her on my own. Wondering how I can manage the feeds and still have the time to pump. Feeling so stressed out now. ?

- 2019-12-27I am 36 weeks along and since a few weeks back the gynae has noted that the umbilical cord is around the baby's neck on ultrasound. I understand this can be common so I just have to make sure there are fetal movements every day. This has caused a bit of anxiety on my part because I will panic a little if I noticed baby's movements are lesser on a particular day. Gynae has mentioned that i can still go for vaginal birth but if there is any distress, she will have to perform emergency csect. Now I am thinking if I should just opt for elective csect straight. Partly due to my fear of vaginal birth (I am a ftm and it just sounds scary) and partly for the safety of the baby and relieve my daily anxiety. Sometimes I do feel guilty for leaning towards csect. Any moms have experienced this before and can give me some advice?

Any mummies experienced bleeding (not alot) accompanied but slight cramps & lasted for 3 days but off & on then when urine there are blood but abit only on & off also? I'm at 4 weeks. Went NUH on 26th & HCG still low based on my test kit too (faint lines), gynae cannot conclude anything as still early. I'm getting my blood test again next week to see if any progress on the HCG level. Meanwhile, I tested again yesterday & the lines darkened & no more bleeding since yesterday. I wonder if any mummies experienced it & it is normal. I even googled abt Ectopic Pregnancy. Hopefully it isn't as I do not have any intense crampings.
Thank you mummies.
