2022-06-13I had my period. During ovulation period we had intercourse and i had spotting the very next day that lasted for 5 days. Could this be a sign of pregnancy? Plus my tummy seems to be bloated always n hardening after the spotting stops. Im TTC for my 2nd after having my first one who is 10 this year. Did pregnancy test last few days but its negative. My boobs seems fuller. Dont know if its my period coming again or otherwise.
2022-06-13Now i m 24 week 4 days.. yesterday i tested covid positive .. i got scared... s ths effect my baby???
2022-06-13Don't judge me for saying this. I just want to pause being a mum and destress myself! I have two kids. One just got better from being sick and now the other one is sick. It's been on repeat. Just when i thought finally i can relax, i was damn wrong. My husband has been there for me. He's helping out as much as he can. My helper is too. Both are terrific. I just cried earlier on because i feel so tired. I just want to pause this and just go enjoy destress then come back all rejuvenated but i know that's not going to happen. Idk what to do. I feel like shit. I feel tired, i feel frustrated. I just dont know what to do
2022-06-13Has the baby not been able to walk for this age? Because when I take him to the playground he starts to come down on his own & crawl, and sometimes mom or parents always look at me because I let my baby crawl. Just as we also want our children to be the best and to be able to walk on their own, we are also worried. the other children were all on the road before the age of one. #13monthsold
2022-06-13Hi! Would like to know when y’all mummies decided to get a breast pump, before or after delivery? And to get a single or double electric pump? My concern is that what if I purchased it before I deliver and unluckily, I won’t be able to breastfeed or my baby won’t like it pumped and prefers to latch-on.

2022-06-14My sister in law is slowly making me despise her. I am someone who recognize goodness and i admit she's been so far nice to me, but she can be pushy at times (through my husband). Few days ago she said, not asked, but said, that my parents in law and her are going to order confinement food for me. Without even asking if i'm ok with that. She has done this kind of things that disrespect me many times, and it always end up with big fight between my husband and i. So my husband replied nicely that he can provide for us, and thanked her for the offer. Her reply after that shocked me and made me broke down in the toilet cause of stress. She was being so pushy and forceful, saying things like "They (her parents) are excited to buy things for baby and house" and also to help her tell us what we need. She made it about her and her parents, instead of me. She's forcing the help she/they think we need instead of the help i really need which is peace of mind and respect my space. She said about how it's gonna be stressful for me based on experience. I am aware and prepared for that; but if she really care cause she has experienced it, why is she forcing me with her "help"? Sorry for the long vent. I've been very stress..i'm a first time mom, high risk pregnancy. I just want to be understood instead of having to accept unnecessary help. 😥😢
2022-06-14Hi mummies! I've been trying to sleep on my left as I've heard it's good for the baby. However, sleeping on my left gives me terrible leg cramps on my left leg. Any idea how to stop this? Thanks in advance.
2022-06-14Hi mommies, Anyone experience recurrent miscarriage? I’ve recently went through chemical pregnancy in March & i had a miscarriage again 2 weeks ago where my baby’s heartbeat could no longer be found and stops growing at almost 8 weeks. Gynae @ NUH said i’m all clear from my last followup to try again after my next cycle.. But i’m worried to go through this again as waiting for an appointment at government hospital takes more than 4 weeks after asking for a referral from polyclinic. What should i do or go to find an expedite appointment? 😞 going to private clinics is really expensive which i’ve done so for my last 2 pregnancies..
2022-06-14hi mums! FTM here and already in my 32w. I had this stage 4 hemorrhoid during my first trimester. its not painful and no bleeding at all. its just there hanging outside which cant put it back inside. will this affect labor? #pregnancy #firstbaby #advicepls

2022-06-14I wrote to them via whatsapp to enquire about a trial session (better to have a trial before going for a package, right?) and to my surprise, they said they don't do a trial session. I find it risky to sign a package without any trial session. (EDD: mid-sep) Appreciate if any mummies here can help out by sharing your experience with them. Are they that good? To the point that they don't offer trial 🤔 Thank you so much! #1stimemom #pleasehelp #advicepls

2022-06-14I had Oscar & NIPT test today, after detailed scanning my gynae told me my baby's neck thickness of 4.1 is above average of 2.5 so she advised me to forgo the NIPT test since it only test for down syndrome and to proceed with amnio test instead. Couldn't stop crying as I'm so worried for my baby and decide to follow gynae's advice. The 5 tubes of blood for NIPT have to be discarded. Anyone have done amnio test before? Can advise how it's like? Will it be painful? And how was your test result? #1stimemom #advicepls
2022-06-14Can I check if its ok to visit 3 diff gynaes across my week 6 to week 9 then decide which one i want to go with later? Do you do all the same scans when you go for 1st consultation with new gynaes? Is it possible to skip on any procedure if I see a new gynae for 1st consult to save cost since I just want to consult and then decide who to go with eventually? #pleasehelp #1stimemom #firstbaby #advicepls

2022-06-14Hiiii, i know this is a random topic. I'm currently pregnant 5 months and things have been hard..few days ago i had a big fight with my husband and in the heat of a moment i threw my wedding ring at him. He picked it up at night, put in a plastic on tv rack. The next day when i was cleaning i accidentally threw the plastic away..i am absolutely broken. I don't know what to do. I'm muslim, it is my right to have that as my gift; but i've lost it. Is there anyone or any muslim women who can tell me what should i do? Would it affect my marriage/relationship with my husband? Should i renew my nikah? I really cannot think right now. I'm so depressed. Please help me.

2022-06-14Hi mommies! Just wanna check if yall happen to have “big” baby if there’s such thing? I’m on my last day of week 24 just now & had my monthly check. Dr told me baby is alr 900g but she didn’t say anything is wrong. I saw on this app that 24+6 est weight is abt 600g? Is this normal? 🙈
2022-06-14It’s not that I don’t love my husband or anything, but since I’m pregnant there is a rush of me wanting to be with him even more. Even waiting for him to end work and be home. I feel like crying whenever he isn’t around me and I feel so alone. My husband doesn’t abandon me or leave me alone to be. He always does his best to make me smile and laugh and I really like that just that now I am even more clingy to him. Has/do anyone gone through this phase before? #pregnancy
2022-06-14Hello mummies 👋 I'm not really asking/looking for advice but just more of a rant. Or more so to seek comfort with anybody that's in the same boat. Currently 30weeks w 1st bb & living with my parents as my BTO got delayed due to covid. Tentatively will be ready 2023. Aniways my situation is my mother don't really like infants/kids. She have been saying when me&bro were babies she rarely cleaned us up because she's disgusted with the poops, pees, vomit & all. Even bathing us she won't do. She will ask my father to take over instead. She basically won't deal with the messes or 'inconveniences' that comes with raising a baby. She has also outwardly voiced out preferring boys over girls. So when she found that I'm having a girl, she kind of lost interest? Honestly, I remember most of the trauma when my mother raised us while we were young. She would scream, hurl, curse and all other things because we didn't listen to her(I mean we were just kids). That's why even now at almost 30 I just can't bring myself to be a doting daughter towards her. Doesn't help that she has favouritism towards my brother 😂 Even while growing up, I didn't have a conducive,loving environment or know whats mother's love and thats sucks. I really think my mother didn't even want kids in the 1st place? Like you know the mindset of older gen that they have to bore children for the sake of it. Now that its nearing my due date, I'm scared that I would be overwhelmed or fall into depression due to upcoming changes. Mother already told me that she won't offer much help because she doesn't really want to. Its kinda sad whenever I think about this. My friends have always told me about how excited their parents are for the 1st grandchild, then there's me. But I'm so thankful I have a supportive husband. He has been reaffirming me he would take most of the load after I've given birth so I could rest. Also helps that he lovesss kids and have been yearning for 1 since we got married. He have been actively taking care of my needs and wants whilst pregnant. Aniways, here's to all the mums that got to do it on their own. Here's to breaking the cycle of toxic parenting 💪🏽💪🏽
2022-06-14If you choose to go without epidural, will you still be given and enema to clear bowls prior to delivery? Assuming vaginal delivery.
2022-06-14My LO is 6 months old and I was told that they should be able to sit with/without support. My friend passed down a baby chair (the inflatable one) and let my baby tries to sit on it. She looks scared and uncomfortable. I am slowly giving her fruit purees and every feeding she will sit on a rocker chair. How do i train my baby to sit?

2022-06-15Long story short I left my full time job to care for my first born when he turned 1 year old as I've no help during the pandemic, and helper was a trash. Started to look for job now that first born goes to school and realised I'm pregnant again. I'm 6 months into pregnancy now and due to unemployment for sometime I'm quite desperate for a job. My long time friend of almost 20 years her company is looking for part time for 5 days to help key invoices into new system..she is also the office manager..she says she can pay me up to $10 per hour..firstly I'm also puzzled what does up to means? Anyway I accepted the job cuz it's my long time friend. Working hours 9am to 6pm excluding lunch hour. On my 1st day I reached at 9am and ate breakfast for 10 mins. I was told to key in over 1,000 invoices which are Jan to Jun 2022 which I need to clear in 5 days. I have to transfer the invoices from old system to new system, part by part, and sometimes there's error, need amendments, need tally amount etc. When she approached me I told her I can type very fast..i really can type very fast..if its a list of items or names on paper and need me to transfer to excel I can type fast..but the invoices are not as straightforward as just copy and pasting..furthermore I double and triple check my work. And on first day after briefing when doing I also ask multiple times while working to make sure I do correctly..I managed to complete over 200 invoices on my first day..however my friend WhatsApp me and say I tot u say u can type very fast? And ask me to type faster the next day. I feel quite annoyed by her comments. Feel like asking her to do it herself. I think I can complete over 200 invoices in a day is already an achievement. I see until my eyes almost crossed and sit until my butt pain. Furthermore im preggy now. Do u think this type of friend is a friend? I'm working not sure even if there is a $10 per hour as she says up to..den she treated me like $200 per day?? Also asked me to reach office earlier to eat my breakfast first which I did the next day. #advicepls

2022-06-15Hello lovely mummies! 1st born currently in PG(Mfs) and recently the skool introduced enrichment programmes for early-learning, so i've read through the details and thought that the duration and fees are kinda not reasonable for me. So, wondering if other enrichment courses would be far more worthy with a quality learning activities(aside from Mfs centre). Your opinions is greatly appreciate and definitely help me to be able to choose wisely. TIA mummies 🤍

2022-06-15Hi all, my infant is crying very badly lately. Is it a normal thing? He usually don’t cry this much. I’ve brought him to the A&E ytd but nothing much was found and doctor’s advise was to monitor and bring him back if he has fever. But today the infant care has called me to bring him back earlier due to his crying. Anyone able to advise me what else can be the problem to his crying? I’ve also tried giving him anti wind medication prescribe by the doctor as she mention that maybe it’s colic.

2022-06-16My bb was delivered via emergency c-sect by Dr. Liu Jiayi in May 2022. Just want to drop a 👍🏻 review here. For me, an understanding and emphatic are important traits of a gynae and I would say Dr. Liu is such! She's attentive to my needs, soft-spoken yet professional. I did not plan for a c-sect but due to minor complications, had to go under the knife. The surgery was well handled in my opinion & I appreciate that she often checked on how I was doing/coping both during and after the surgery.
2022-06-16Got an appt from NUH for first check up at week 13 as I’m going the subsidised route. Is it too late to do igene or NIPT at week 13? Not sure if the doctor will allow me to do the test on the first visit. Anyone has similar experience? Thanks.
2022-06-16Hi mummies, can I ask is it normal ? I’m 12weeks in and I can’t sleep at night. I wake up every 2 hours or 1 hour every night since early in the pregnancy. It’s causing me to have headaches due to the lack of sleep and I can’t possibly be taking Panadol every day. Any remedies or advice would be very very helpful to me. Thanks !!!

2022-06-16Hi mummies. My baby is already 6 months. When is the right time I can start feeding my baby? My baby already shows a sign that she wants to eat for example putting her hand in her mouth even after I feed her milk. Some say can start feeding her. Some say to wait until she properly sits down on her own to prevent choking. Which is which ya. So confuse. My baby still needs support to help her sit down. Not stable yet.#please help #1stimemom #firstbaby

2022-06-16Hi, the hospital called to inform me that they found antibodies in my blood thus I need to come down to take further blood test. Is this something I should be concern of? Any advice ? Would appreciate it a lot. Thanks in advance.
2022-06-16Hello mummies to be, anyone just did NIPT recently at KKH? I uds turnaround time is 2-3wks. Cos I just did mine (impromptu) today and I’m seeing my gynae next Tues so results won’t be out then. And so I was told they will emailed me instead in 3 wks. Anyone also received via email? Just wondering anyone got it SOONER than the timeline told to u? how many working days did u get it? Thankssss !!!
2022-06-16I don’t know to feel bad for myself or my hubby. It hurts everywhere - boob and vagina when we attempt to be intimate. On top of that I’m having throat infection as well. It kills off the mood for him and I feel bad. But no choice I told him to wait for a while more.
2022-06-16Since I tested positive I have mild pregnancy symtpoms like fatigue, nausea and hungry. slowly I feel less fatigue and no nausea at all. I din see anything wrong at the time. Week 5 day 1 sharp pain at lower right abdominal, went gynae for ultrascan see no sac. Referred to NUH, tested positive and still no sac. Suspected missed miscarriage or etopic. I Tot it would be too early to detect a sac (make myself at ease). Proceeded with my holiday. Week 6 still in holiday. Light spotting in yellow discharge. Google tot it is normal. Week 6 day 1 had stomachache and poo. Saw heavy mense flow with some fluid. Realized it is a miscarriage. Went to the clinic, doctor said nothing can be done as there is a small sac but is empty. The night before my miscarriage, I had a dreamt which is hinting me something is not right. And what doctor said is exactly what I heard in my dream "there is a sac but is empty." Never ignore a single unusual signs during pregnancy.
2022-06-16Wtf I feel so useless. This small pill also cannot swallow. What’s easy for you does not means is easy for others. Friends and family always ask why such a small thing I also cannot do properly🙄

2022-06-17My baby is almost 3 months now. I’ve been bathing him in the morning since birth. At what age do I change it to evening? Also, any mummies have tips on bathing babies? Mine kicks and moves a lot in the baby bath tub so I’m having difficulty bathing his back 🥲
2022-06-17I’ve been reading up on this and find it difficult putting my baby to crib “drowsy but awake”. Not sure if I’m doing it correctly, but he’s quite alert and agitated after my attempts. My baby is almost 3 months old. Any mummies have tips to share? And for mummies who didn’t sleep train, did baby eventually fall asleep independently? At how old, and any tips to share as well? Thank you in advance! #firstbaby #sleeptraining #sleepdeprived
2022-06-17Hi Mummies! I think I’m about 7 weeks in now and my breast soreness has completely gone away. I generally do not have much other symptoms other than tiredness. Appreciate if you can share if this is normal and is there anything to be worried?

2022-06-17Hi, FTM here. For the baby bonus, isit after give birth will apply at hospital or before giving birth can apply?
2022-06-17Hi mummies , FTM here , just wondering. When we 1st reached kkh when we have contraction or about to give birth. Where do we go to ? All i know is just go straight to level 2 delivery suite. After that what will they do ? Anything i need to bring along ? May i know what you guys bring inside your hospital bag ? As i dont want to overpacked the items. And can we shower our baby before discharge or just wipe down ? Thanks for all the replies. Im 30 weeks now , so quiet nervous as we dont know when the baby will come can be early or exact EDD right ?
2022-06-17Just curious! Why do some mummies to be use initials only - e.g Baby J before the bb is born? Is this some kind of myth not to share the baby’s name before bb is born?

2022-06-17My 7 week old baby will take a long mouth full at each feed (either formula or eBM), ranging between 30 to 60ml at one go. But then after burping him, he will turn red at the next mouth, fussing and crying but his lips still smack when we remove the bottle. Any advice pls or if your LO also had the same symptoms?

2022-06-17My 2 year old has been screaming non stop as soon as 1-2hours after putting him to bed for the past 4 days and his cries are inconsolable. I am feeling so stress as I am losing patience for this and this happened before awhile ago and i think its night terror(?) but this time im not sure whether it is also night terror as he dont look frightened or want to run away but more like he just wants to scream non stop and will stop for awhile and start again. He is currently under the weather as well (cough and runny nose) and im not sure whether it has also contributed to making him so fussy at night. Any advice? Thanks in advance....

2022-06-18I’m at my 8th week pregnancy. Doctor was going through prenatal test (Harmony test + sexual defect test) and also option of a more comprehensive test (sorry I wasn’t told the test name) which can detect other chromosome abnormalities (but very rare kind). Doctor did mention that it’s an option to do the comprehensive one and they are very rare like some are 1 in 500k! Since I’m 36 years old this year, (not young lol) I’m quite worried about fetus health. Anyone been through the comprehensive test?
2022-06-18Period was late 2 days, and before "menses" was just spotting. But not sure why is there so much clot. Is this normal menses clot or may i was pregnant & misscariage? HELP THANKS.
