Craving for dry mango

VIP Member

Yes generally safe to eat during pregnancy. It’s a source of vitamin c, a, folate and fiber. If can eat try fresh first. But if really craving - go ahead with dehydrated mango during pregnancy. But be careful if you has GD cause of the high sugar intake. Keep to only 3-4 slices n choose brand with less added sugar or sulfites.

Brown spotting (19 week pregnant)

I am having brown spotting/discharge. Is it normal? I’m 19 week pregnant now

google say its often harmless, frequently cause by increased cervical sensitivity, intercourse, or infections but you should check with the obg or gynae or the pregnancy hospital ward if its okiee or they need you to come down and check

Any gynae recommendations? Planning to either switch to KKH private or Thomson Medical.

Currently 13weeks pregnant FTM and making plans to switch from subsidised route to private if all things goes smoothly.

FTS shows baby NT is 3.4

Hi mummies, I’ve just went for my fts, and based on the scans, the Dr advised that baby nt is at the higher risk of 3.4. Dr did mentioned that even if the blood test is low risk, but nt is still at high risk. I’m still pending for blood test and the wait is worrying. Baby nasal bone can be seen. Can anyone share if you encounter such situations also? I’m feeling very lost now.

My first born had NT 5mm. Nasal bone present, other physical measurements all ok. I was worried sick and even did amnio but all tests results came back negative. Gave birth to a perfectly healthy baby! Don't overthink, happy mummy = happy baby. All the best :)

Sleeping position

I am 12 weeks pregnant. Sleeping on my left side pains a lot, especially on the left lower abdomen. Is there any reason? #sleepingposition

it would be better if you seek your gyne opinion.

Tidak ada kata jijik mulai sekarang

Padahal pas masih gadis aku tuh jijik-an. Tapi setelah punya anak, apa itu jijik? 😌 Lagi makan, anak minta cebok pun aku jabanin wkwk. Kalo kamu, apa yang berubah setelah jadi ibu? 🤭

Has anyone tried NewBubs Confinement or have any confinement agency to recommend or warn against?

Hi V! I can share what I've found about NewBubs.They are a relatively newer agency but have been getting positive feedback from mummies. They are MOM-licensed and all nannies are handpicked through a rigorous face-to-face selection process done in Malaysia, followed by structured training before placement. One mummy who engaged them for her November 2023 baby shared that the coordinator Lloyd was responsive and genuine, and quickly found a suitable nanny even when her EDD changed due to an early birth at 37 weeks. Her nanny was experienced, organised, had excellent hygiene standards and was warm from day one. Packages start from $3,888 and include consultation support, work permit and insurance application, and unlimited free nanny replacement. That unlimited replacement policy is a big green flag as it shows they stand behind their matching. They do seem like a solid choice especially for first-time parents who need hand-holding through the whole process. Would love to hear from any other mummies here who have used them!

Bloatedness & weight gain

Hello mommies & mommies-to-be, I need advice on how to reduce bloatedness! I am at week 5 going on 6, and my stomach is HUGE as I’m super bloated. I have tried peppermint tea, drinking warm water when I wake up, but to not much avail. Also don’t wish to apply ointment as my older age makes this pregnancy much higher risk so prefer to be cautious. In addition, any tips on slowing down weight gain? I go for daily hour-long walks (as trying to refrain from spinning though I used to spin 3x a week) and eating fruits, cutting all sweet intakes. My first gynae appt is unfortunately only in 2 weeks so need advice to help me through till then!
