Hi mummies! What did you ladies do when acid reflux kicks in?

Hey there! I totally understand the pain of dealing with acid reflux during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. It can be really uncomfortable, but there are definitely some things you can do to help alleviate the symptoms. First off, try to avoid foods and drinks that are known to trigger acid reflux, such as spicy foods, citrus fruits, and caffeine. Eating smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day can also help prevent reflux. It's also a good idea to avoid lying down right after eating and to prop yourself up with pillows while sleeping. This can help keep stomach acid from creeping up into your esophagus. Some moms find relief from over-the-counter antacids, but it's always best to check with your doctor before taking any medications, especially while pregnant or breastfeeding. If these strategies don't seem to be doing the trick, definitely talk to your healthcare provider. They may be able to recommend other treatments or lifestyle changes that can help manage your acid reflux. I hope these tips help you find some relief from acid reflux. Hang in there, mama! You're doing a great job. https://invl.io/cll6she

How do you arrange night shift with husband and helper?

Hi FTM mum here and I’m planning to hire a helper. I have confinement nanny for 1st month but not sure how to arrange once nanny leaves. Can any mums who have helper share if their helper take full night shift? Or you and hubby take night shift instead? Initially i plan to let helper take night shift but my mum questioned if i really trust helper with it. Thank you.

Hi there! Congratulations on your pregnancy and soon-to-be new addition to the family! It's great that you're considering hiring a helper to assist you after the first month with the confinement nanny. In my experience, arranging the night shift with your husband and helper can be a good option. Some helpers are willing and capable of taking on the full night shift, allowing you and your husband to get some much-needed rest. However, it's important to ensure that you feel comfortable and trust your helper to handle the night shift responsibilities. If you're unsure about trusting your helper with the night shift, you and your husband can take turns with the night shifts. This way, you both get some rest while also bonding with your new baby during those late-night feedings and cuddles. It's all about finding a balance that works for your family! Communicate openly with your helper about your expectations and concerns regarding the night shift. It's important to establish a level of trust and understanding between both parties. You can also consider setting up a trial period to see how the night shift arrangement works out before committing to a long-term plan. Ultimately, the most important thing is that you and your husband feel comfortable and supported during this exciting yet challenging time. Trust your instincts and make decisions that work best for your family. Good luck, and take care! https://invl.io/cll6she

Baby belly binder

Anyone have used or have heard of a baby belly binder? Some said it’s pointless, but my mom insists that i get it. Help? 🫠

Hey there! Congratulations on your pregnancy! I totally understand your dilemma about the baby belly binder. I personally used one after giving birth to my last child, and I found it really helpful in providing support and comfort as my body was recovering. It helped to reduce swelling and provided gentle compression to support my abdominal muscles. I would suggest trying it out if you feel like it could benefit you. Every woman's experience with a baby belly binder is different, so what works for one person may not work for another. If your mom insists on it, maybe give it a try and see how it feels for you. Just make sure to follow the instructions for wearing it properly and listen to your body - if it feels uncomfortable, then it might not be the right fit for you. Ultimately, the decision is yours to make, but it's always good to consider the advice of experienced family members. Good luck, and I hope you find the best solution for your postpartum recovery! 🌸 https://invl.io/cll6she

Hi mummies! Those visiting NUH for your prenatal checks, how often does your gynae take ultrasound?

firsttimemom #advicemommies Is ultrasound taken for you at every appointment or only specific weeks? If you could share, who is your gynae? Thanks!

Depends on your gynae. Some do not have ultrasound at bedside so you’ll get an ultrasound only during your fcc scans

Hi I'm just wondering if HL can be given before I pop. Am in the preschool industry and honestly feeling the inconvenience when I'm only in my second tri. Cannot imagine working when belly is huge. Any educators like to share their experience? Or anyone knows if gynaes are generally ok to give HL? Or which one doesn't so I can avoid hahaha

yes the obstetrician will usually be able to issue HL 2 weeks leading up to EDD
