- 2021-06-28I've used this product for years since it was called Barley Green in the 90s. Great enzymatic product. I had digestive, acute gastritis and reflux issues since I was a kid. I've used products like this and fiber and haven't used prescriptions in 15 years. Instead of using tums and rolaids, I highly recommend green products in drinks or pills.

- 2021-06-28Hi sorry everyone I have to rant here as I dont have any listening ear to talk to.
Im working in office 8 to 5.30pm weekdays. I send my twins 9 month plus to IFC 30 mins walk. But cons that the IFC unable to bath them as they mention ACDA decision their center cant bath the infants. So everyday I will bath first before bath them and settle them before send them to IFC by 7pm as I taking public to work. End work fetch them, bath them and get ready their dinner. Down part for me as a mother is that they now dont drink milk much, doesnt eat much. Their weight up and down because of that. Because they lack nutrition, they unable to sit, crawl and stand. Simple as bearing weight in both legs also development delay for them. Everyday I will get frustrated with them whenever they dont eat, dont drink milk. How to get nutrition? Then surround me keep nag at me for not giving enough food and milk. Nag at me for 9 month old cannot sit, stand and crawl. They label me as a failure. Other infants 5 to 7 months can do all of that. Even start BLW. I dont know how to make my twins able to do basic stuff like sit, crawl and stand. They dont even want to hold spoon or bottle themselves. Im tired.#advicepls #1stimemom #pleasehelp

- 2021-06-28Staying tgt with mil because we have not apply for bto (marriage is unstable, preg before married)
Mil asking me for allowance while the son is not giving her a single cent. Initially she ask me how much i can contribute i told her $150 and one day i told her i might be able to increase the amount and following month she ask me for $200 cos I say I will give. Suck it up gave her $200. But my job contract is ending in a few days time and she never thought whether I have enough for myself still pestering me with giving her money. ( I felt cheated tbh, i had financial issue before I got married she assure me that she wont ask for money from her chikdren as she know it's not easy to survive nowadays. Fyi she's earning 6k a month. Sil hired a helper to take care of the dog at home. Shortly after I gave birth, mil wants to change helper so the new helper can take care of my baby. When helper arrived she told helper to take care of my needs and baby needs, housework and put on hold. But 1 year later, when the helper helping me to do my things she scolded the helper and tell the helper to rmb who is her paymaster LOL was super taken aback. I don't usually use the helper unless I really need help.)
What should i do? I have my own committments (bills, debt, baby, insurance) How do I tell her that she should take money from her son too and not always pestering me with paying up? I feels like a tenant at the house tbh.
(My parents know about it and feels that is not my job to pay for the allowance as my hubs is not paying a single cent, what do you guys think?)
After my this job ends I'll only be paid 1.2k before cpf deduction so I really don't know what to do..

- 2021-06-30Hello everyone. I have a situation here with regards to who to help take care of my bb after she's born.
1. In law is not willing to take care of bb despite wfh
2. My parents are indecisive also, but they're self-employed
3. Helpers are expensive (or is anyone able to advise the helper's upfront payment and mthly salary?)
4. Nannies are now priced avgly $800 a month too, so it's pricey
5. Infant cares (anyone knows the fees in local preschs?)
Thanks!
- 2021-06-30Hihi,how does contraction feels like? I am approaching week 37 of my pregnancy
- 2021-06-30Speaking from my own experienceā¦
I went to one of the clinics in Thomson Medical and the Dr asked me to go for Down syndrome test (the usual 12/13th week test). I opted for Oscar, thinking that my family and my hubbyās do not have any Down syndrome babies and itās relatively cheaper by a lot (est $700 difference!).
Turned out the result is 1/4 chance of getting a Down syndrome baby and that I need to go for invasive tests. The report also indicated that my baby does not have a nasal bone.
Later I went for second opinion to another private clinic in Mt Elizabeth Novena, the Dr suggested to go for another blood test, NICE. He purposely make it much more affordable so that his patients are much more comfortable in getting this tested.
Turned out my baby is FINE! No genetic issues at all!
Now that Iām 20 weeks and I did further scans and My baby is perfectly alright.
I have heard another case where a lady had Oscar test and results were ok. Later after giving birth, the baby is having Down syndrome.
So donāt try to save money for this test. #1stimemom

- 2021-07-01Hi mummies. My firstborn is currently 13mo and I found out that I'm pregnant with my 2nd.
It's not a surprise because we did plan for it. However after finding out that I'm pregnant, I don't feel excited at all. In fact I'm a little sad. Sad that my time with my firstborn is limited.
Now I feel like I'm knowingly taking away time and attention from her.
I'm scared too. How would I be able to handle 2 kids under 2?
Is this normal? My husband simply just brushed it aside and told me not to think too much.

He mentioned that if cervix is closed he can't induced me too. And he said that we can only wait maximum another week (week 41) before opting for c section if cervix is still closed.
I am so worried and I'm a FTM. I just hope I can try natural delivery before opting for c section.

They feed her milo when I am not around. When I'm back I saw my baby mouth have chocolate stain. I ask did you all give her chocolate? But they say then only give Milo. Feed her with the spoon that my fil used and the same cup he use. He even put the biscuits in his Milo.
My spouse and I had already say multiple time not to give her any food that we are eating. We even explain to they why.
Milo too sweet for baby to drink. Yet it will cause heart disease and diabetes.

- 2021-07-01Hello mummies.
I'm 14 weeks postpartum and is ebf.
I've started feeling weird these few days as followed:
Feeling tired(needed nap when I usually don't)
Thirsty
Headache
Hungry
Cramp(for 3rd day)
Spotted tiny blood streak cm(1 time)
Feels wet below(like af coming)
Yellow tinted Watery discharge(sometimes clear type)
Left breast hurting
Peeing more at night
Fart (whole day)
Cervix position is high, firm & close.
Had unprotected sex 1 week ago.
I've never been fertile until my ebf baby turned 2 years old at least with all my kid so I can't be pregnant base on my experience with my body.
I had 1 time of super bright yellow watery discharge when my baby was 10 weeks old then nothing since. I thought af was returning as such discharge happened with my previous baby and about 2 weeks later I had my first period. I have no idea what's going on with my body now seriously. Any input?

Assumed it was constipation at first (since that's been a chronic problem already).

- 2021-07-02My husband recently admitted he went for prostitution MULTIPLE times on the reason that I don't give him sex as often as he wishes I would (we still do it but not often).
he knows this would be the last draw for our marriage, he even went to solicit one after our counselling.
I love him, i gave him a lot of chances I keep tell myself he's still young, we're still young. but he constantly betrays my trust, breaks my heart.
I want to cut him out of my life but I can't, I keep replaying it in my head and I keep crying. my heart really hurts. I've moved back to my parents place with my kid. yesterday she just told me she misses papa.. I miss him too but I know myself. I cannot get over this, it's unacceptable.
i know I shouldn't give him ANOTHER chance, who can ever accept their husband soliciting prostitutes on multiple occasions???
I feel so dirty and disgusted as it feels like he touched someone else and touched me.
I've to be strong for my kid cos idw to lose care n control when the time comes. but I feel so lost. I never expected this situation to fall upon myself, I don't know what to do.
I intend to go counseling for myself to get over this. I'm just worried for my kid to grow up with a father, even tho when we're staying together he doesn't bother with my kid too. he doesn't treat me nice, there's really no reason to stay. But my heart still yearn for him :( why am I so foolish? I saw all the red flags but I didn't do anything I continue to let him disrespect me and hurt me...

Yes we need to think about the bto house and renovations and such and yes our son is still 7 months old.I feel so helpless with no one to turn to for advice.Is someone experiencing the same thing before?or can it be that the pregnancy test is faulty?as i just missed a week of period#pregnancy

- 2021-07-02Im 3 days PP tdy. Been exclusively breastfeeding since day 1. And so far, so good.. despite the every hourly demand latching, Baby has been latching well. Till both my nipples super sore and "torn". I do apply the nipple cream as and when i can but because my baby might even latch every 30mins-60mins, my nipples couldnt heal properly and thus resulted in more pain.
Yesterday i realised, my both boobs gettimg engorged eventho i latch my baby often and for long each time. The engorgement doesnt seems to subside.. i wonder why.. is baby not drinking at all or...? Every 10-15mins she ask to be latched. With the pain getting even more painful, i had to feed my baby formula. My 3yrs old formula milk bcos i hadnt had the chance to buy a newborn formula yet.
I feel guilty. What will happen if a newborn drinks a 3yrs old fomula milk? This is the first time i had to do this. My nipple pain is soo unbearable and baby was fussing, crying non stop asking for milk.
And, what can i do now? With this nipple pain (cracked nipples) and both boobs engorgement... Pls pls advise! Urgently need help!

- 2021-07-03Hi momsiee.. Ive been crazy for the last month of june.. First i went to A&E since I got vagina bleeding and blood clots heavier. They took me blood test in low hcg and do ultrasound. Went back after 2 days. After all the test its likely miscarriage, Doctor advise me to make it natural flow to release the blood if there is pain that triggers need to come back well, I did bedrest for whole atleast 1 week then bleeding stops, when ai return to the doctor as per advise for check up its incomplete miscarriage. So an option occur either I take the pills to wash out or an awake surgery or sleep surgery. I decided to take the pills. Right after that i take it with anti biotic and pain reliever. 1 day of taking the misoprostol pill there is an abdominal pain like whole part of my waist it hurts like crazy. You will cry like a baby. And after several hours i went to toilet and it flash out then there is still a lot of pregnancy tissues keep coming out. The next day i took the anti biotic as doctor instruct me. I took it.. im still weak although I can still cook and move a little but no exercise for me, and no heavy things to carry cus i feel like i was giving birthā¦ sighing!
After 3 daysā¦
That moment at night time, I just poop like its diarrhea thingyā¦after that I went to our room and i feel the same cramps and its so damn painā¦ like i cant tahan, i took medicine for pain reliever and still cant relieve.. then I went back to A&E to find out whats going on. They took me Urine test, and blood test. Blood test surprise me that the level of my hcg is highest than my last visit to doctor. I dunno why.
I did ultrasound again atleast 2-3 times in emergency and 1 time for clear visualā¦. Is it because of the misoprostol side effect? Doctor told me it could be ectopic or miscarriage since I am taking the pills to flash out the remaining. Sighing. Im so damn tired and overthink so much. Now i need to do blood test. From 86.2 after 48 hrs its 50+ something.. now i need to come back after 4 days to repeat blood test. Hopefully It will lesser As I am very tired having this. And to come back on my normal routine. Ive been to NUH doctor is straight to the point. No ifs nor butā¦. Seeing my result he will give straight away comment and he knows what he is doing. But hopefully it will clear..
I am just sharing this my experience since not all have the same experience. I am first time mom to be but didnt make it. God will make a way.. i know he got a plan for me and my husband.. its a rollercoaster thingy but God sustain me to be strong no matter what.
My advice to those who got this experience pls pls.. follow what your body reacts, always follow what doctors advise. And be readyā¦ plus eat an healthy food. Dont think about work as company cant dwell if something happen to you. Olrightā. Now rest as much as possible. Rest to ensure your wounds are healing.
Thank u so much for reading my story.
To those mommy to be you are such a warrior. I salute all of youā¦ God bless everyone.

- 2021-07-03Hi i am considering to register my son to a playgroup next year. I am a new mother and have no idea which playgroup is good for him to develop some of his cognitive, speech, motor skillset. I understand that need to register early as the waiting list could be quite long for those more popular ones.
I am staying in Serangoon area. Any recommended playgroup in the vicinity? How about those private playgroup? What is the subsidy given for full time working mum? Due to covid, it is quite hard to tour the centre when the toddlers are having activities.

- 2021-07-031. Doctors have their preferred doctors say of delivering, and it shows in their rates of delivery. Donāt be afraid to ask what they prefer (although I donāt think theyāll share rates) and to change doctors regardless of how late youāre into pregnancy
2. Cord blood banking options are best finalized at 32 weeks
3. Placenta encapsulation is not done by hospitals ā you should arrange it anytime up to a month before due date

- 2021-07-03Question: Am I supposed to see many sprays inside the flange as I pump?
Cos I only see one spray, for maybe a minute max, then it will just be droplets slowly dripping and accumulating before flowing down to the valve. Am I not pumping correctly?
Am FTM new to pumping, did csect 3 weeks ago. I use Spectra S1 pump, and I usually do Cycle 1, suction level 2 to 4, for 15 to 20 mins. Is this correct, or what will you suggest?
