Antenatal class @ TMC

Im currently 26 weeks and thought of registering for the antenatal class @ TMC. As it is quite expensive, anybody went for it and is it good ? Is the practical good ? #FTM

Hello, I have attended both theory and practical class with TMC. It’s very good and very informative. Especially the practical class! I highly suggest you go if you are a first time mother.

Belly cramp when sleeping sideways

Currently towards the end of 2nd trimester. And Im starting to get belly cramps when sleeping sideways at night. I believe its from the weight of the belly since my belly is getting big and heavy. Is this normal and will the cramps affect the baby? Its not intense. Is there any way to encounter this or prevent the cramp ? I have tried putting small pillow below my belly for support but its jot comfortable at all I ended up keep waking up several times and not having a good sleep for quite awhile 😣 #firstbaby

it’s normal, won’t affect baby. try using pregnancy pillow. it will help esp in 3rd trim.

Will taking cough meds harm the pregnancy? [13-weeks]

Hi mummies, I have been having a very chesty, phlegmy dry cough for close to a week. It all started frm my flu den it escalated to cough. Severe headaches come in between bt it went off for a quite a while. Wen dat happen, i took the normal panadol which was previously prescribed by a GP. Bt my overthinking mind is nt to take too much as i fear the condition of my baby. Bt my cough doesnt goes away, in fact, it escalate to me losing my sense of taste. My nose got blocked. I tried some home remedy, bt doesnt goes away. I tried to force myself to eat something with spice or sour taste bt none triggers my taste buds. Though i manage to get some of it, bt it just thoroughly disappointing wen i cant tastw watever im eating/drinking. My husband has asked me to see a GP to get treated. Im just worried having to take too much medication at this period bt im too weak to hold d pain & self healed. Wenever i cough, i always fear for the baby. Bt it is safe?

see a GP. not all medications are bad. Do ART.

Good side of motherhood

Im a ftm expecting my child soon and the people around me and social medias are all filled with the negative and scary side of motherhood after birth. The depression, the loss of sleep, the change of body etc and that made me very scared and demoralised. I know its all true and ill be experiencing all that but wow is it all bad side is my life going down the drain after having a baby. Will i ever be myself again. Can mummies enlighten me the good bright side of being a mother, especially with a newborn. 😣 #firsttimemom

My chant for the first 2 years when things gets rough was always, “this is just a phase”. Once you are a mummy, you will realise that your body and brain will be wired differently. You can survive on little to no sleep and still give your all to your LO. Enjoy the little moments, take lots of photos cos time really flies with them. All the best mummy :)

I am not sure if what i have is sciatica. I googled and it seems like it. Very difficult for me to lie down then goes back up. Initially i had lower back pain on left side, then now it is my butt. Cant even turn to left or right side as and when i want. Anyone have this pain and how to resolve it fast? I do yoga and prenatal massage. It’s better after the session but only temporary 🥲🥲

Yup. It’s like that. Have to do some gentle exercise and try to walk abit. It will get better
