Nausea and giddy at 23 weeks

I am still having nausea at 23 weeks particularly after food. Thought it will ease off when you hit 2nd trimester. Anyone experiencing the same so I know this is normal?

I heard some people vomit until they deliver. The condition is called hyperemesis gravidarum. Maybe check with your gynae?

taste buds taste weird

Does anyone have tips to improve taste buds? I feel irritated about being so funny in my mouth.

is this first trimester? unfortunately there’s nothing that can be done to taste buds, except to take small candies that can improve the taste. this was one of the worse symptoms for me.. not painful but very annoying to have that awful taste the whole day

Hi mums! Would like to seek advice and recommendations for breast pumps. Currently I’m looking at Spectra vs a China brand breast pump (for cost saving). I’m a first time mum so haven’t used breast pump before. Would it be too big a risk to take if I went straight for the China breast pump? Specs are pretty good, anti-backflow, BPA-free components etc. If you’ve other recommendations please let me know too! Thank you :) #advicepls

Eating dates & walks help shorten labour

Im a ftm, 38+1w, already started eating 5 dates/day , doing squats, going up down stairs & going for 30-40 mins walk everyday, will it help baby drop to pelvic, avoid getting overdue & shorten labor? 😅 Am paranoid that i have yet to see any signs of labor and very anxious. Scared that after doing all these baby still overdue & labor will still be long (‘: #FTM

If this is your first time then it may exceed your EDD, it may not. But usually dr/gynae will have cervix check & see if baby's head engaged thru the birth canal at 38/39 weeks. Then, when you know whethere you dilate a bit or not then you will have a rough gauge whether it would be long/short labour. Pardon it all depend on our body, baby, and other factor. Because for me, both babies exceed EDD eventhough I dilated 3cm. 😅🤣

28 days confinement herbal soup

Hi, btw lao ban niang and hock hua 28 days confinement herbal soup which one is better? Anyone has any ideas? I went to lao ban niang website but it didn’t list what kind of soup in their 28 days package whereas hock hua got a brochure which list out all the 28 days soup. Not sure which brand to buy 😅

Both are decent options honestly, but from what I've heard, Lao Ban Niang's package edges ahead for some mums because it includes extras like So Hup and Bak Foong pills on top of the soups, so you're getting more than just the herbal soup component. Hock Hua on the other hand does have a proper breakdown of all 28 distinct soups upfront, which makes it easier to know exactly what you're getting before you commit, that transparency is something someone in my mum group actually appreciated when she was comparing packages. Lao Ban Niang structures their soups in three phases aligned to your body's recovery stages, which sounds thoughtful, though I understand the frustration that their full ingredient list isn't always easy to get hold of without asking them directly. If transparency matters a lot to you at the point of purchase, Hock Hua's clearer listing is a practical plus, but if you want a more complete package with added supplements, Lao Ban Niang might give you better value overall.

Umbilical cord around neck = c section?

Hi mummies, does umbilical cord around neck means c-section? Went for a scan yesterday as was told that there’s one round of cord around baby’s neck (but loosely wrapped) Baby has yet to turn- breech. Will it affect him from turning, causing a need for c-sect? - 29weeks #firstbaby

If im not mistaken, its quite common for baby’s umbilical cord to be wrapped around the body as baby is still moving around at this stage and baby still have time to go head down position. However if the gynae highlight it as a concern then maybe can ask them for advise, else if they never say anything, means still not concerning.
