2020-03-30I’m about 12 weeks pregnant. My hubby and myself haven’t have sex for more than 3 months and it’s torturing us. Not sure if it’s the pregnancy that’s making my sex drive higher or it’s too long we haven’t have sex. But my hubby is concerned that he might hurt the baby if we have sex during my pregnancy, so he is a bit reluctant to have sex. Anyone face the same issue as me? I feel bad for not being able to satisfy his needs.

2020-03-30Hi mummies, I'm pregnant with my second child and will be due in July. During my first pregnancy I was staying with my parents and had my mum to care for me while I was on my confinement. Now for my second pregnancy, I already have my own house. My concern now is should I go back and stay with my parents during my confinement period or stay at home and have my mum to come to my house. This is because my husband works at night and during the day he'll be sleeping 4-5 hours. Which means I'll be on my own taking care of myself and the 2 children on top of the house chores need to be done. My husband approves of me staying over. But I feel bad leaving him alone at the house for 3 months while serving my confinement. Plus he needs to do the house chores by himself. He'll go home first to sleep before coming to my mum's place for lunch or dinner. What should I do? ??

2020-03-30Any mummy experience this during pregnancy or going through this now? Im in my 36 weeks, doc told me about this left kidney dilated, and probably need to induce in 38 weeks, theres when the baby is full term so that they can detect early problem about it. Im quite worried and scared. And ive been crying thinking of it. Google made it worse. I just hope it does not defect the baby or had down syndrome or any other complication. Im sorry if im not being sensitive about down syndrome as Im totally not ready to accept it. Worse still, i got pregnant right after I finish my chemo. I dont want my husband to blame me if anything were to happen to the baby. Cause Im the one who wants to keep it, whilst he wants to abort it. ? Im terrible person. It is all my fault to keep this pregnancy to begin with. I wish i could turn back time and abort it.

2020-03-31I donoe how to put it but I think my hubby is a bisexual? Recently he has been really really really close to one of our closest fren back then. We parted ways 11 years ago and now we started chatting. They used to be best friend until I came along. I find it weird now, that they both do videocalling almost every time of the day and night when they are free. (which guy as a fren would see guy faces and chatted almost 24/7 and what the hell are they talking abt almost every day). And the chat is like super long chat can last up to hours. He at times stayover, and they almost like do things together (go out, send him off downstair, watch TV together late night). Hub even went to 'meet' him after his flight at 7am (when he doesn't even fetch me to work) and the reason: I got nothing to do also at home so just go meet and have breakfast with him. Am I just being paranoid? Or is he really bi? I started to feel that hes really chatty with the fren and not the wife. We don't even talk for hours or video call each other and nvr had any long chat... Should I be jealous? I've known the fren. Maybe it just them having bro 'moment'? We three go out together like old times. He knows me and I knows him..

2020-04-01supposedly due on November,but god has better plan for me.Just had miscarried week ago, I’m so sad because I really planned for this pregnancy but ended up with miscarriage. Actually, my first visit to my doctor when I was 5 weeks 3 days and dr said he unable to see the yolk and fetus pole,maybe something not right ,from there I was paranoid and always negative with my pregnancy,thinking to much for blighted ovum ,ectopic pregnancy and etc. I experienced panic Attack as well, Sunday morning when I woke up and want to pass urine noticed got blood and turn to heavier bleeding and passing the clot,remind calm and see DR next day only,took 3 days for dr before diagnosed me as miscarriage.Gone thru many procedure within 3 days,blood workout to monitor HCG level, Pap smear and vaginal n abdomen scan. Lesson learned ,Please mama out there if experienced bleeding pls consult your Dr ASAP and always positive with pregnancy,I just realise maybe I think to much and also important for some Dr ,they really need give us positive vibes and not threatening us with other complications ,for me 5 weeks Mybe too early to see anything,same what other Dr said. Hopefully will recover back soon and get pregnant again. Even for few weeks only but I’m very happy to experience some pregnancy symptom .

2020-04-01After giving birth to my first child. I had eating disorder for about 2 months... everyone’s been telling me, “you’re still skinny after having a baby” I don’t know if I shall feel proud about it because deep down I’m not happy with my body. I’ve always wanted to have thick body... before I was pregnant... my weight was 50kg sharp. during pregnancy i gained 10kg = 60kg I’m so happy at that point because my husband told me that I look more attractive with more meats on me. But it didn’t last long and now my weight is back to 50kg. I tried eating but still no sign of gaining... HOW? is there any tips on gaining weight? Please help me.

After 30mins he will cry wanting to sleep again. I'll cradle him but he won't fall alseep. When i put him down he'll cry again. Usually it'll take me abt 30-60 mins before he eventually fall asleep again. And then wake up after less than 30mins ?And wants to sleep again afterwards

2020-04-03Hi ladies. So apparently I have been having this boil/inside pimple near my inner thigh as seen in the image(yellow circle). Nothing is visible except that you can feel a lump there which is uncomfortable when I sit or sleep cause I got thick thighs and no thigh gap. Went to the doctor once and doctor said it was nothing but it keeps appearing once it was gone a few weeks/months later. I am pregnant now and I am worried this will affect my baby. I am only 13 weeks pregnant. Please help.

Although i do send my girl to child care since 18 mthsz, my parent (who doesnt approves my sending her to child care) will pick her around noon since they doesnt like her to nap in school.

2020-04-03Im 15weeks preg. Can i eat soft boiled half cook egg?
2020-04-03Hi! I have a small issue that I need some advice on. So I have wonderful in laws to begin with, they are nice people and don't carry any I'll intentions. However, sometimes they can be rather naggy and overzealous about our lives. They are always missing us and wanting to meet up for dinner with us. Firstly, my hub and I work, so that puts us out of energy 6 days out of the week. I also drive 20km to work and 20km back from work 6 days a week being pregnant. They also want us to go to their house to eat once a week, their house being 20mins away from ours too. We only have Sundays to rest. My in laws are semi-retired so they're always asking when is the next meet up, asking us what we want to eat and buying fruits to pass to us. In a way, I feel exhausted with them always pressuring us to meet and finding reasons to meet up when our schedules are so tight. Secondly, due to pregnancy hormones I get easily agitated. Sometimes they might make comments that doesn't sit well with me and nag about things during dinner when I just want to faster eat and go home. E.g. "So early go home for what", "when are you coming again". I appreciate that they pass us household items and fruits, but the thing is when I reject some of it, they insist. They also pressure me to finish the food that they prepare (too many dishes for 4 people) even though I repeat many times that I'm full, so every time I go home being overly-full and become very uncomfortable. So the once happy-go-lucky me has become short-tempered and I find myself avoiding them/wanting to avoid them. This is also because I'm afraid I'll lose my temper when I'm with them. My baby is arriving in about 3 months and I'm already dreading their input. Somehow I feel like avoiding them already and after giving birth I heard that your emotions and hormones will be more overwhelming than during pregnancy. I don't want to lose my temper in front of them. My hub and I figured that I should set boundaries and let them know when they should come to our house to help out, if we need their help. As I will be home for at least 3 months and I will have a maid and a confinement nanny. My mother in law even asked me where she could sleep without us mentioning about that. We already have a maid and confinement nanny, we don't have any more space for them, so I turned that down. She always repeated that she don't trust the maid to take care of the baby which I agree, but that's what many couples have arranged and they did fine. Deep inside me, I know it's wrong to feel this way but I'm also afraid they will "snatch" my baby away from me. I want this precious 3 months after birth to be an inteimate time of just me, my hub and my baby. I want to set days that they can come to visit and times that they should let me rest and go home but I have no idea what kind and how much help I would need from them. Any advice from mummies that experience similar scenarios and how to manage this issue? Thanks in advance!
2020-04-03Hi, I've been working from home for almost 2 months and 13 weeks pregnant. I am usually tired and would do my work on my bed with the laptop on my lap or abdominal area.

Let me know what you guys did! Thanks in advance!

2020-04-03My baby is 2 months old and he having difficulties to poo. Please advise what should I do. Help needed. TIA
2020-04-03After giving birth is so painful to walk around the house to get things done. So I have my husband and my father in law helping me take care of my newborn. However my husband sometimes is being distracted with his game(state of survival) he is the leader of an alliance and he is an addicted gamer. Sometime I feel like he doesn't give his 100% attention to my little one. For example I am able to feed my little one 2 Oz of milk for each feed but he is only managed to feed 1 Oz claiming that she is full. When I look at him feed her, he took a really long time before burping her because he is busy clicking on his phone. I did mention it to him not to play so much on his phone before giving birth because I have the same issues with him with my first Newborn. He doesn't seems to change. I just have to wait for myself to recover but it is so painful looking at my second newborn not receiving enough care. My father in law do take care of my newborn as well. However I do not like it when he said that she needs to be fed according to time not because she is hungry than feed her... I don't really want my baby to starve. I really wish I can just recover and take care of my newborn on my own without their help. What should I do now?

2020-04-03My LO is 10 weeks now and since he was at 6weeks I noticed that he is predominantly using his right hands, such as waving right arm higher than left and using right hands to “touch” things and sucking his right hand more often Should I be concern of this issue at this stage? Because I read that babies shouldn’t have hand preference this early and if they do it could be a symptom of cerebral palsy. I am worried sick. Any parent notice the same for your LO and they are fine?

2020-04-04Dear all, I just had a miscarriage at 9 weeks. Everything was going well and just one day, realized there's spotting, went into A&E, baby heartbeat can't be detected though baby was growing well - doubled in size from last scan. As we are hoping for rainbow baby now, we are wondering if there's anything else we could have done better for the next pregnancy. For the last, the Dr only gave folic acid, so I was only taking that and maternal milk powder. Just wondering if there's any multivitamins or even good TCM physician recommendation that I should go and consult? Thank you for your kind sharing in advance!

2020-04-04Hi mommies, may I ask if anyone here experienced this. I’m 19wks pregnant and I’m having acid reflux and sharp pain in my left rib cage esp when deep breathing, sneezing, or lying left side. It started last 1st Apr when I ate maybe too much beef, and plantain banana with green veggies. Since then whenever I eat I’ll be having acid and gas. It’s been 4 days and since I’m not taking any meds, it’s far from getting better :( I went to GP and gave me Anarex and Famotidine which I also informed my OB and waiting for her reply.. My next prenatal checkup is on Thurs 9th April. Thank you in advance..

2020-04-04I really can’t stand my confinement nanny. She always don’t listen to us and do things her way, keep saying that she has look after many babies before she know. And things that she say she keep changing her words. Few of the incidents such as: 1) baby had jaundice so FM feeding need to be every 2hrs instead of 3hrs. When we told her of feeding more frequently then reduce the intake she say Ok but always still feed the same amount. 2) she told us once jaundice drop can drag back to 3hrs, no problem. Now baby jaundice drop and doc already confirm can change the feeding time to 3hrs she now tell me very hard to change. 3) whenever baby cry she will say baby is hungry need drink FM but that’s not the case, when we carry her she stop crying. But nanny insist feeding her and proceed to prepare the milk. 4) she don’t like it when we are close to our baby, whenever we carry her she would ask to carry. 5) treat baby as alarm clock every night. We caught her a few times not waking up to feed baby, we have to go over to wake her up or baby cry will wake her up. If not she will never feed. 6) this morning baby cry so hard she just ignore, we realise baby pooping so we change the diaper when we are almost done then she come in the room and ask us go wash our hand, she will do (when we are already done, just need to carry baby back to cot). 7) whenever we tell her something, she will always show us black face. A lot of other stuff but I can’t list down everything. Sorry for the rant but I just don’t like it when she always change her words, and never listen. If she choose not to listen at least tell us the reason, etc instead of agreeing to it but do another behind our back.

2020-04-04Hi mummies, I was told by my gynae 3 weeks back that my urine has slight bacterial growth and there isn't a need to treat as I do not have any symptoms. But this morning, I went to the GP for abdominal pain. GP did urine test for me and was told I am having urine infection which I assumed was the untreated infection. He prescribed me with amoxicillin antibiotic which he mentioned is the safest for pregnancy. My questions; 1. Should I listen to my gynae? Or 2. Should I just continue taking the antibiotic given by the GP?

Super annoyed as i had a very hard time dealing with a cranky baby alone. So this time i want to check if my husband is allowed to come with me for my baby’s injection?
