- 2024-12-10My son is facing speech delay & he is currently 2 years old. It worried me so much.
- 2024-12-10If you could please share the agency and the name of the nanny assigned nd recommended?
- 2024-12-10Hey mummies. Can share what u all use to clean baby's fruits and veg? Baby is 6 mths old
- 2024-12-10Hey mummy’s I’m 4 month postpartum and I still feel nauseous like whne I smell fish and other stuff is it normal?
- 2024-12-10Hi mummies, this is my first time pregnancy and i witnessed a clear transparent water during urinate and theres no smell of urine either. It happened about 3 times a day. I dont know if that’s consider as waterbag leak? Should i be worried? Baby has not moved so often since then. Should i head down to A&E to get check? I wanted to wait for contractions if possible.
- 2024-12-10I tried to look for other mums who may have written down their experiences on the forum but came up with no results. I hope to write an ongoing account of my journey and experiences of my current pregnancy after being diagnosed with #OAPS.
I'm still quite early into this pregnancy, only 6 weeks. I'm happy and grateful to still be able to get pregnant - the last few months of trying without success had me thinking that OAPS maybe affected my fertility as well.
Morning sickness is here, same as last time; though it did come a bit earlier than before. I'm also feeling much more fatigued and stressed, haha.
My first appointment with the gynae, I'm going back to the doctor who diagnosed me after my miscarriage, is next week. I'll probably be given a prescription for daily injections of aspirin or something similar.
Will update more in the comments along the way!
- 2024-12-10Heyyy mommies, I’m about to enter my third trimester and starting to feel nervous about what childbirth will be like… I’m still unsure whether I’ll go for a C-section or natural delivery. But from the stories I’ve heard, giving birth is truly a life-and-death experience. I’m feeling so anxious 😭. Moms who have been through it, can you share your stories?
- 2024-12-10Mom, how big is a normal pregnant belly supposed to be? I’m already in my 5th month, but my belly isn’t that big. When I wear oversized shirts, it can still be hidden... But people seem to have a problem with it—they’re always making snide remarks whenever they see my belly 😭
- 2024-12-10Mom, I’m feeling so heartbroken. I’m 7 months pregnant, and last night, I accidentally saw my husband’s phone while he left it to go to the bathroom. Turns out, he was on a dating app. Why???? What for????? I feel so worthless and just want to run away. He doesnt love me anymore? Am I ugly now?
- 2024-12-10Moms, my little one is 1 year old but hasn’t started saying any words yet—just babbling sounds like 'ah' and 'oh' or pointing at what he wants. Could this be considered speech delay? I’m thinking of taking him to the doctor, but my mom says it’s normal at this age. Still, I can’t shake off this uneasy feeling…
- 2024-12-10Moms, my baby cries intensely every time we put clothes on after a bath. At first, I thought it was just discomfort or something they needed to get used to, but now I’m starting to feel like something might be wrong. We’ve been as gentle as possible and even try talking to soothe them, but the crying is so intense, like they’re in pain. Strangely enough, they’re fine as long as we’re not changing their clothes. Could there be an underlying issue? Or is this normal?
- 2024-12-10I just need to vent, moms. These past few months, I’ve been so stressed. My husband recently resigned from his job because he said he was under a lot of stress—his boss was toxic, his colleagues were toxic, and the competition was unhealthy. He promised to find a new job soon, but until now, he hasn’t found one. Worse, he seems to be getting too comfortable with this situation.
I come from a fairly well-off family, but from the beginning of our marriage, we agreed not to ask for anything from my family. I wanted us to be independent. But just yesterday, he actually asked me to seek help from my parents. I was so upset. How dare he ask me to do that when I’ve never even done it myself?
And to top it off, my child will start school next year, and our expenses will definitely increase. I used to work too, but I resigned after giving birth—with his approval as well. Why can’t he be more driven to find a job like other husbands???????
- 2024-12-10Currently 27 weeks but been couple of weeks i have been having pains in my Vag in the bone but only left side.. cant walk cant sit properly. When lying on my left its painful too there even with a bolster in-between, changing sides on bed or getting its painful too. Gyne keeps saying its normal etc.. but nvr had this for my previous 2 pregnancies. Is it really normal? Any tips on how to feel better?
- 2024-12-10Umbilical cord fell off 7 days ago and still has dried blood when cleaned. Baby was bath everyday after we came home by CL. Is there any concern? The cord was only 3cm. Got so short? Did the doc cut too short? Anyone has similar experience?
- 2024-12-10Hi, possible to share experiences/tips for bringing an infant onboard? Usually, my LO cries most of the time if not being carried and walk around… worry she fuss a lot throughout the plane ride.
Thanks!
- 2024-12-11My tummy feel cramps
- 2024-12-11hi mummies!
my LO is currently 17 mo and has been sleeping too long that he misses breakfast some days.
LO usually sleeps around 9:30-10pm-ish sometimes 11pm 🤕 i dont know exactly how long he naps a day since i work full time (in-laws helper takes care of LO full day) but roughly napping between 1-2hrs once a day.
nowadays, he’s been waking up around 10-11am in the morning and skips breakfast altogether.
how do i navigate around his sleeping schedule so he doesnt miss out on his 3 meals a day? do we need to change his sleeping routine/timing? please help 😭

Packed columns were among the first types of columns used in gas chromatography before the development of capillary columns. GC packed columns are suited for separating larger compounds or when the sample size is not limited. They are often used in analyzing natural products, environmental samples, and complex mixtures.
