Baby Express Be Free or Nude Pump

Contemplating between Baby Express Be Free & Nude. Which should i get?

I don't have personal experience with both, but a friend of mine used the Be Free and said it was comfortable and convenient for her daily pumping sessions, especially since it is wearable and fairly quiet. It might be worth thinking about your lifestyle first, like whether you need something more portable for pumping on the go or something with more customisable settings. Maybe pop by a baby fair or a store where you can see both in person before deciding lah.

Lesser kick in 3rd trim

Im currently 30 weeks and now that im in 3rd trim i realised baby’s kicks gets lesser compared to 2nd trim, there is still kick every now and then, however baby moves most of the time, changing position, wriggling, etc. but when it kicks, the kick can be quite hard. But the kicks are not as often as during 2nd trim. If that makes sense. I honestly dont count the kicks cs i feel baby moving most of the time. Is this normal ? Anything i should be worried about ? #FTM

Hi, any recommendations for face wash/ face cream for pregnancy acne? I have very bad skin breakout (tiny bumps, not really pimple) ever since getting pregnant. ?

Use better product.

Post natal massage

Any one did post natal massage with babies & bellies? Or have any other recommendations? Thanks!

A friend of mine tried Babies & Bellies for her post-natal massage after her second child and she said the therapist was really thorough and gentle, especially around the abdominal area, and she felt so much more comfortable after her sessions. She also said the whole experience felt quite professional and they were used to working with new mums who are still recovering, so she felt well taken care of lah. Hope you find something that works well for you and helps you recover nicely.

Venting frustrations about my own mum

Before we had second child we discussed with my mum. She is supportive . She don’t stay with us but she will come daily to take my older daughter 2.5 years old to childcare nearby. In June 2021, I was around 12 weeks pregnant. I started looking for a maid. Mum says she prefer the maid who took care of my uncle(her brother before he passed away) . So we waited for her preferred maid as her contract was ending with previous employer. 2 months pass, no reply from that maid. So I started looking for a maid again. Then came my mum saying ohh. Our family is United, we can help to take care of the second child, just have a part time maid. She can come over to stay with us etc etc . We stay within 2 km from each other. 3 bus stop. We purposely got a resale flat near her. She said maids are not reliable, she dislike them, dislike unfamiliar faces etc . Then I tot ok, maybe don’t have a maid, I hire a nanny(locals, so culturally more similar to us and that will make my mum more comfortable) . And nannies are actually more expensive than a maid, plus I can have a part time maid. Then now, in oct. when I am due soon. (Thankfully I have a confinement nanny) I can sense my mum don’t want to move here to stay with us. I asked her a few times last few days, she avoided my topic. Until today I was gonna lose my temper, I ask her with all seriousness, is she going to move over. She start to say we should hire a maid, she don’t want to stay over. Freakkkks . I am so pissed off. I already told her lead time for a maid is 4-6 months. I started quarreling with her, then she avoided me and quickly left my home. I am being flew areoplane by my own mum again.... so I am going interview for a maid tmr morning. Everything done in a haste. And I am very sure after I have a maid, my mum will come my house to complain how untrustworthy maids are and how much I need her to watch over the maid. My relationship with my mum is never good since young. But I try to close one eye these days as we are still a family. She did this for my first born, fly areoplane and change mind last min causing me stress . I talked to her , my relatives talked to her, I tot she will get better this time round. But she is still doing the same thing. I am stressed , can’t sleep at 3am...

I cannot phantom anyone who feel entitled that their mother should take care of their grandchild. Seriously, grow up and take care of ur own child or hire a maid. Also u mention both of ur relationship not good to begin with.

Insomnia at night but sleepy in the day

Can someone tell me how to sleep at night😢😢 I always cant sleep at night but i can sleep in the day😢😢 Scared later bb also awake at night and only sleep in the day

It is normal for pregnancy mummy to have insomnia. I had it for my second pregnancy but not my first. I watch netflix, youtube, drink warm chocolate drink/tea, toss turn until I fall asleep. Nothing can be done because most mummies had it. Otherwise, I suggest you don't have afternoon nap, and it will help you sleep better at night when you are tired.
