2020-10-27Hi mummies, any ideas when is the earliest to bind after natural birth? Straight after birth can?
2020-10-27Hi mummies I'm 37 weeks 6 days today, yesterday i went for my checkup at KKH. And i need to be induced tomorrow as my baby is big at 3.6 (estimate) so the doctor afraid my baby could be more big in 2 weeks time my edd. My worried is I'm very scared, nervous on this 4th pregnancy as this time, i have to sacrifice to be alone during the delivery and the pain moment, as my husband need to take care of my 2 years old son at home and my daughter having exams tomorrow. I can't imagine when my husband not around during the pain came. And all the nurse will avoiding me, since they know our husbands is not with us. I have this experience before on my 1st child when i take class c at kkh all the nurses and doctors are jialat in the ward or in the delivery suit. But when my 3rd child i take class B it was awesome and blessed. But tomorrow i have to take class C again due to my financial.😓 As class B1/B2 need to pay half deposit. So yeah... Here we go again... I hope everything will be better then what i was thought and may god ease everything tomorrow and make it easy smooth on my delivery tomorrow. I will be emotional tomorrow after my husband and my son leaving me at KKH after the admission settled. I will definitely cry at the ward alone thinking/miss my son. And the worse is will be at the delivery suite.😭😓 I hope i can bear the pain this time.

2020-10-27Hi mummies, I would like to ask if any of you gained a lot of weight during pregnancy? I'm currently pregnant with my 2nd baby but I gained a lot during my first pregnancy, which was in 2018 to 2019. My initial pre pregnancy weight was 60kg but during my first pregnancy, I let loose as I had difficulty eating normal food which ends up with me gaining up to 96kg - weight gain of approximately 36kg. My health was fine, there was no gestational diabetes and no hypertension or whatsoever. Baby did end up on the bigger side but that was also due to hereditary as my family genetics are all on the bigger baby side. I was trying to lose weight when I got pregnant again this year, my first baby was only 9mths old. This time my pre pregnancy weight started at 81kg and now I'm reaching 100kg. As per previous pregnancy, my health and baby's health were all fine. My doctor said it's okay as my pre pregnancy weight started at 81kg and my weight gain so far is okay. I'm just worried that I might have a hard time losing weight. I had always been on the bigger side, abt 70kg plus and I managed to lose a lot before my wedding. It took so much blood, sweat and tears to lose all those weight and I know I'll have to do it again if I wanna lose all the weight I've gained thus far. Do you have any advice on when I can start losing weight after giving birth and what I can do other than exercising? If I'm breastfeeding, can I still go on diet and stuff like that? I would really appreciate your advice on this. Also, I would really appreciate if you don't criticize me on the weight gain as I've had enough of that from myself. Thank you in advance.

2020-10-27Hi mummies,i'm currently 35+5 weeks now,not long till delivery.I'm an unwed muslim mum and i have some questions and rants. Firstly,when my family found out that i was pregnant,they told me to abort or even threaten to "spike" me in order for me to abort naturally.They told me that they don't want to care or look after the baby after i deliver which i say that i'm fine with it cause thru out everything i never ask for a single cent from them at all and its not that i'm arrogant or something but they asked me if the father of the child is taking responsibilities by paying the bills and everything which he did,he bought everything for the baby but now they want to take my baby away from me trying to say that we are not financially stable for a baby and that they don't like the baby's father.I admit we had some issues in the past but we worked thru it. Secondly,i'm currently 24,thinking of moving away from my house,away from my siblings and get married to my baby father after confinement,but i'm afraid that my father disagree with the marriage,can i apply for wali hakim if he does not want to be the wali?and what is the process like? thirdly,its regarding medisave.I might not have enough to pay for my own hospital bill but the baby father do.So is he allowed to only pay for the baby only?and do i have to use my father's medisave to pay for my hospital bill?#1stimemom #advicepls

2020-10-28Hi Mummies... My baby is currently 6weeks old. She is bottle-fed breastmilk during her feeds. She was able to feed an average of 120, max 130ml. However, I realised she is eating less these days. Can go as low as 70ml. On average about 90ml. Also, after every feed, it’s difficult to get her to burp and most of the time, she doesn’t burp and fell asleep. She has reflux sometimes only. Is there something to be concerned with? Thanks in advance.

We usually manage to put her to bed by 9pm but she will wake up numerous times starting anytime from 10pm onwards. She has never really slept through the night, she will wake up around twice and goes back to sleep after milk but now its really getting bad to worse. We tried changing diaper, adjusting room temperature, giving milk, cuddle and carry but nothing seems to work and she can stay up for 2-3h at night just making noise. It's like she's got too much energy and I think she's tired but she can't sleep. She also doesn't really know how to self soothe herself back to sleep when she awakes. We will try not to carry but give her the pacifier and her chouchou but sometimes really have to carry. Last night we just tried to ignore her but she went at it for close to 3h until we sat there and keep lying her back down until she finally slept. Tell me this is normal please and it will pass, I'm so worried is she overactive or isit a development thing as she's starting to walk a few steps now. Really at my wits end and I dunno what to do, can't imagine when I send her to infantcare in Dec. It's going to get worse??? 😵😵😵

2020-10-31Currently in my 2nd pregnancy of 7th week. I realized that my belly tends to be bigger faster even though i am just only 7 wks. Is it because i do not have sufficient time to lose those belly fats frm my 1st pregnancy, hence i look bigger nw?
2020-10-31I am a NUH subsidised patient transferred from TMC private due to my medical history I have in the past. I only get to scan at week 32 after detailed scan at week 20 in TMC. And every visit is only hearing heart beat, sometimes they don’t even measure my belly. How do I or gynae know if my baby’s weight is in a healthy range? This is my 4th pregnancy & my belly is so much smaller compared to my 3 previously. When I scanned during 32weeks my baby’s head is down and hardly can see his face but it seems like he got protruded lower jaw (his chin meat look very thick and long). I am so worried but the doctor who scan says if detailed scan have no problem then shouldnt be a problem. Might be his position inside & he is sleeping inside at that point of time. I am really worried & I couldn’t request to scan again and see since it’s under subsidised :(
