Birthclub: October 2022

Hi mommies... my baby is 18 days old. formula fed since day 1. drank dulac, was ok at first and then had hard poo, changed to Grow cos that was what KK gave, was ok, poop was soft and creamy. and then his poo changed to mucus like + seedy. he poops almost after every feeding. changed to friso now, mucus poo + seedy. is this normal? 😞 Pictures attached. (sorry for the pics!)

Dry skin at chest area 37w4days. Is that something to be worried?

Newborn 8days hiccup after every feed isit normal?

Hi mummies, I just delivered my #1 today and was advised by PD to do metabolism and hearing test. My hub said he felt the baby could hear us just fine and my bro said can do without. The cost isn’t cheap cuz I delivered at Mount A thus I would like to ask if these tests are necessary? Or can I do it at polyclinic after discharge so I can claim CDA? Appreciate your input! Thanks mummies! #advicepls #firsttimemom #firstbaby

Hi mummies! I'm 37 weeks and noticed I had brownish discharges. I had a similar encounter at my 34 weeks but then was given Clindamycin for BV infection (did swab culture). Now I am having it again. Is it mucus plugging? Am I gonna be in labour soon? My next review will be on the 20th. #pleasehelp #firsttimemom #advicepls

Hi mummies who went thru natural delivery this year, just wanna ask if any of you wear shapewear after delivery? I do have pp massage and I know there will be wrapping of the belly but I would also like to continue putting on shapewear or tights so I can get my body & legs toned back to pre-pregnancy. Any recommendations for a good, effective and affordable shapewear for postpartum?? Not looking at Mama’s choice cuz I read reviews like it’s not really that fantastic thou it’s very affordable. I would very much appreciate your recommendations, thank you!

New born 3 days old poop only ones isit normal in 24hrs?

hi mummies, any mummies rely on laughing gas only ? or epidural. Any recommendations? I heard after doc burst your water bag, contraction will be much more worst.

I’m 39 weeks 1 day now and it’s still a waiting game for me and my bb. Is it normal to deliver only on edd or after edd? I’m 1cm dilated from last weekend’s gynae check and he recommended me to wait out since bb is healthy and everything’s normal. My qns is, what if my cervix doesn’t dilate and soften in time? Should I just opt for induction? I’ve seen quite a few mummies doing membrane sweep, should I request for it too? What are the chances of it inducing labour? Gynae did mentioned chances of e-csect will be high if induction fails but I’m really hoping bb can come out and not wait till 41 weeks. I do not wish to go for csect at all as I prefer natural delivery. #firsttimemom #pleasehelp #firstbaby #1stpreganancy
