2020-12-15Hi mommies, i have been seen by a senior consultant of my choice for all my appointments. If i choose b2+ ward for admission, will my gynae still attend to me? I do not want to be served by any other doctors. I am only comfortable with my gynae. Anyone knows?
2020-12-15Went gynae when I was 7 weeks pregnant but gynae could only see a sac without heart beat and it was measured around 5 weeks. Was advise to go back again the next week. The next week (by right is 8 week preg) we saw the heart beat but it was irregular and slow. BTW I was also bleeding since 7 weeks. So I have been on medication n injection to stop the bleeding but still bleeds. And now with small blood clots everyday. My husband read that such pregnancy the baby might not come out to be healthy. I'm worried. Anyone encounter this, can share your experience with me? With the bleeding continues, I think the pregnancy can't be full term? Does my situation really means my baby will turn out abnormal? #pregnancy #advicepls

2020-12-15This is my 4th pregnancy n by far the most shitty one. Endless morning sickness and forever tired n listless. Took dicletin but omg the drowsiness. Today i had an argument with my husband again(duno hw many times alr since the start of this pregnancy). He has an event tonight. N he claimed i was not being supportive. In his eyes, today is supppsed to be a working day. I do home business online. But after lunch, I went straight to bed n nap. I cannot tahan alr bcoz of the drowsy effect from the pill i took this mrn. I was out driving the whole morning. Yes despite me being drowsy. I did not complained. So while he was getting ready just nw, i woke up n just lay down on the bed scrolling down my phone. He asked if i was not goin to send him off. When u r drowsy, u dont really jumped off the bed immediately right? He saw my face n started saying stuffs like im nt being supportive n i dont care at all abt him. I got really confused. I didnt even realised or even know this event is such a huge deal for him until now. So he just packed his stuffs n left the house. He even forward me an article from google "how to be a supportive wife". And ask me to reflect. Wow. How upsetting can that be. In all honesty, i know its bad to say or even think like this. I wish this pregnancy didnt happen. Its causing me n others around me so much inconvenience. So much inconvenience that there was once i had full pad bleeding case,I wouldnt mind if i really miscarriage. All these dark emotions i kept to myself. Never spoke a word to my spouse. N nw I still have another 6 long months to go. 😭 i really have the urge to send him this article below. Im not even asking him for flowers gifts or even attention. Nt even asking for anything. Just dont say or send hurtful things to me is all i ask. https://sogoeslife.com/how-to-be-a-supportive-husband-during-pregnancy/

2020-12-16Hi mummies, ftm here. My baby just turned 1 month and we notice that she has been sleeping more and hence eating less. We have tried to increase the amount per feed but she doesn't finish. Previously she was drinking 90ml every 2 hrs (810ml per day) and now has dropped to 90ml every 3hrs (630ml). Wondering if shld I wake her up to feed her? Or if any other mummies experience this as well?

2020-12-16Hi mummies, my FIL was recently diagnosed with Tuberculosis (TB). My world crashed as we have been visiting my in-laws almost twice every week with my 3month-old. We were informed to get tested for TB. The doctor informed me that I should get my baby started with the antibiotics "rifampicin" even if the 1st test result is negative. Only until the 2nd test shows negative result then we can stop the antibiotics treatment. This is because baby's immunity is not as strong as an adult. I researched the side effect of rifampicin and found out that there are A LOT of side effects which my baby may not be able to let me know. I'm torn between taking the precaution and get him started with the treatment now or wait till he is tested positive. Then again if he has gotten TB and treatment were delayed, the situation could be worse. Does anyone have this experience? What should I do?#1stimemom #firstbaby #advicepls
2020-12-16Hi mommies! I just gave birth to my nb son 15/12 .

Worried but is there going to be any damage ? As doctor say can be treated by helping him exercise his leg.. 😌

2020-12-16Hi mommy, i still haven't get my first period almost 4month after giving birth? Any of you having the same problem with me? I'm a fully breastfeeding mom. I didn't experience this problem with my other kid as im not fully breastfeeding that time.
2020-12-161. I have a LO who would become agitated and cry murder when the bottle is taken away from him to burp. This would cause the milk to be puked out and hence we always wld continue to feed him without burping him. We would try to burp him after the feed but most of the time no burp, and he would puke a lot of milk out either almost immd or few hours later. Any idea why is this the case? 2. Is 90ml for 2months+ lo sufficient? 3. Is drinking 90ml in about 8 mins considered fast? And if drinking 90ml in 15-20mins considered slow? We are not sure if the teat has problem(currently using NUK latex 0-6mths S size teat) #firstbaby #1stimemom #advicepls

But after that, she suddenly decided to reject my nipples totally. She only takes it when with nipple shield. Yes I know, it's probably nipple confusion. So now I'm fully express pumping. But I wish to latch again, and knowing that it will help increase the supply. My supply has been stagnant, no matter what I take or do, it doesn't increase. Seems like really need to latch latch latch. LO is now 5.5 months. Any one have suggestions on how to get her to latch again please?

2020-12-18My child is starting school soon and I had asked the principal to set up a virtual meeting with my child's teacher. During the meeting, while I was demonstrating milk preparation for my child as they have never prepared that type of powdered milk before, the principal and the teacher were talking and laughing among themselves. While I was explaining and when they were asking me questions or replying me, they were still laughing. I felt insulted and that they were being rather disrespectful and unprofessional. I had some concerns which was why I chose to keep quiet at that point of time. After the incident, I confided in my family and friends and they advised me to speak up about it as they agreed it was really inappropriate and unprofessional especially coming from the principal herself. Since I assume the principal is of the highest authority and I wanted to save her from embarrassment in front of her colleagues, I chose to send her a text message. I believe this also gives her time to reflect and correct her mistake with a sincere apology. However, the apology I received was less than satisfactory; it was insincere. She only apologised that her actions hurt me and that it wasn't her intention. Ending off, she wanted us to move on. She never admitted what she did was wrong, nor did she admit her unprofessionalism. And that moving on part seemed like she is inconsiderate of my feelings as it seemed she didn't cared if I accept her apology or not. From my point of view, the apology only reinforces her unprofessionalism. I am truly disappointed with her reply. Now, I'm concerned about the values my child would observe from the authority figures in the preschool. With a principal who doesn't admit her mistakes, who is disrespectful, who is insincere with apologies, it is extremely worrisome as a parent who is sending her child there for school soon. I'm really at lost and worried for my child. Am I being too sensitive? Or what should/can I do in this scenario? I would love to hear some advice. Thank you. #1stimemom #advicepls #theasianparentph #preschool

Will take several months to try to be much stronger physically and mentally before planning for another pregnancy. Thanks to all mummies/users here who supported me previously!

2020-12-19Hello fellow mummies, where can I seek help? I am a single mum currently living under my parents. But my parents haven’t been that supportive of my actions ( of keeping the child out of wedlock) My lo is 2 years, and recently they have been telling my lo that your mum character is very bad, don’t be like your mummy. Also, recently my lo had a gagging incident because she was crying while eating due to sleepiness and my mum tilt her head backwards which I shouted because this action would be even more dangerous. And my mum is very angry with me. She began ignoring me and giving sacastic remarks like I’ll let you choke next time. I am only earning 3k a month and won’t be able to afford a house anytime soon. I feel so suffocating that sometimes I just want to kill myself. But I know I can’t because my lo has only me in his life. Any idea where can I seek help so that I can move out of this toxicity? I tried BABES shelter but because I’m over 21 years old I can’t be in their shelter. #advicepls
