- 2022-11-14Hi mummies to be!
I’m currently in my 7th week now and would like to check if other mummies face the same issue as me (e.g. bad breathe).
It’s making me uncomfortable. Although drinking more water helps but sometimes it doesn’t.
What do you do to cope with this other than brushing teeth more often and drinking more water.

- 2022-11-14Hi Mummies.
I'm at Week 36, Going to Week 37 this Thursday. My baby is Breech and already under C-Sec Waiting List.

- 2022-11-14I'm almost 27 weeks in and i know I'm late to find a confinement nanny due to change in plans. I don't want to stress anyone else out so I rather just get a confinement nanny but wondering what are your opinions?
- 2022-11-14I am feeling down seeing posts and people around me that are of the same age with babies and toddlers, basically children of their own. Seeing posts of pregnancy and baby toys when I have been TTC for awhile now. I have no children and been having baby fever for quite sometime now. It has been really difficult juggling being happy for them but also wanting and desiring the same for myself. How do you manage your emotions if you have ever experienced something similar to this? #ttc #pregnancyenvy #Sadness #babyfever
As I am in my 30s, there's always a worry at the back of my mind that I could never bare children or it'll be too late

- 2022-11-14So i gave birth almost 2 years ago and my perineum still kind of hurt (eg, if i try to poop, i can feel it being sore and uncomfortable). To my knowledge, its only supposed to hurt for a few months. I’ve been to KKH and all they said was that the wound has healed nicely and there should be no problem. I’m not asking for it to be completely back to normal (no scar etc). I just wish it will stop hurting, if i poke some areas of the scar, it will hurt too. Any advice or anyone with similar experience?

Anxious to know for those who were first time mom before, did you manage without help either hiring confinement nanny or mother?
I am staying in a rented 1 room condo and we don't have enough space for baby cot and stuff, let alone space for confinement nanny to stay over esp we only have 1 toilet. Also knowing myself I won't be able to stand seeing nanny sitting around watching Netflix lol.
My mom had refused to help sigh. Also its not possible to stay at her place as her house will be gg through government upgrading project.
Those who had gone thro this before. Was it OK to manage on your own without help? I'm worried I can't cope esp If dunno how to breastfeed

- 2022-11-16Hello everyone!
Excited to “see” you! I am Venice Ho Mun Pheng, Nutritionist from Nutrigene. Together with the team at TAP, we would love to help as many of you as we can on your parenting journey.
If you want your baby to improve his focus and concentration, and support his brain development, you should consider adding some good brain food to his daily diet.
Join me at this Q&A session, and drop your inquiries about your kid's nutrition in the comment below.
Topic: What Is the Best Brain Food for kids?
Date: Thursday, 24 November 2022
Time: 8.00 pm to 9.00 pm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
👩- Which foods are harmful to my baby's brain development?
👩💼- Food that are harmful to the baby:
Excessive sugar and salt;
Raw food (might have food contamination);
Trans fat: crisps, biscuits, cake, fast food;
Colored food, artificial colorings – too much might cause cognitive problem, ADHD, anxiety, hyperactivity, headaches;
Caffeine – energy drink, carbonated drink;
Honey – might contain bacteria, don’t give baby until over 1 year old
👩- My baby is a picky eater,. he is not interested in green leave and most of vegetable, What are the best other food I can offer him. Is there any way to increase his appetite?
👩💼- They will try new food for 12-15 times before they can be comfortable with it. Parents need to be patience. The kids are trying new thing. And the best things we can do as parents is to relax and try again.
Vitamin b complex may increase the appetite. But if you are giving supplement, be sure to choose the supplement made from natural ingredients.
Fix meal time. No snacks in between meals. Reduce sugar intake and snacks, these will affect their appetite.
Avoid any disruption while eating: watching tv/ cartoon, angry at kids, play while eating

- 2022-11-16Hey mommies! I'm expecting number 2 in Jan and would like to try breastfeeding her. Didn't manage to fully breastfeed my boy back in 2020 as I was in a pretty depressed situation at that point of time , thus resorted to formula after 1 month.
This time round now that we are living on our own , I'd like to try bf my princess if possible. Question is , how do I know baby is full from bf? Do they stop latching automatically? 2nd , how do I know they are receiving milk from boobies? 😅 (I mean boobies aren't like bottle that we can see how much baby drinks)
How do I know I'm producing milk? 😅 Back with my firstborn , the nurses at labour ward helped expressed colustrum and told me to just latch. I rmb not being able to sleep till about 4am cause I was latching all the way (nurse came and topped up formula for my son as she assumed I wasn't producing enough) 😅
Though this is my 2nd pregnancy, feels like I'm a ftm all over again as it's a huge difference from back then 😅 do hope to hear from you lovely ladies 🥰#pleasehelp #advicepls

- 2022-11-17Hi mummies, do I need a car seat for my newborn if I don't own a car??
firsttimemom
any recommendation for affordable lightweight portable car seats for newborn onwards? We don't own a car but felt it might be good to have esp when we travel in parents car or private hire car.
For mummies who do that, could you also share if you just lug the carseat and carrier out? ie no need for stroller since there are so many things on hand already.

- 2022-11-17Why is formula milk so expensive? I mean there are just 2 or 3 brands that are cheaper like dulac and Grow. The rest are in 50s and 60s dollars range.
Is it true that the more expensive ones are better? Or is this just another consumerism or customers are just paying unnecessary cost factors for the company like their campaigns, marketing etc.
- 2022-11-17Hello mummies, i’m currently 38 weeks + 5 days. I had my cervical check two days ago and was only 1cm dilated. 30 mins after, i went to pee and there was blood, and then hours later when I got home, i was still bleeding (first pic). and on that same day at night, there’s this gooey brownish discharge (second pic) on my panty liner. Is this considered a bloody show? Today is the third day after my cervical check and i’m only seeing brown discharge now. I had contractions but i think its braxton hicks because it doesn’t come in regular intervals. I’m so sorry for the gross photo, i might delete this post when someone replies. TIA! #firsttimemom #advicepls #firstbaby

My son has jaundice and he is 1.5months old. This week his blood test result came back and his TSH level is 49, suspected hypothyroidism. We were referred to the endocrinologist but the appt is next week.
I wanted to ask if anyone has any experience with this and can share with us more info? We are worried sick.

- 2022-11-18Hi mummies, I’m officially 40 weeks today. Today is my EDD. Just wanna ask for opinion - should I head down to the hospital for a check? Cos my last appt with the hospital was on 7th october and up to date there wasn’t any appt for me. So for over a month I have no updates of baby’s growth or well-being. I called the hospital ytd, they said to come down if I’m feeling pain etc. There’s on & off pain which is tolerable. Probably I’m just anxious.#advicepls
- 2022-11-18Hi mummies, did anyone of you experience a sudden outbreak of tiny little pus like bumps on your face (the two side of your nose and on your chin area) before you guys were tested positive for pregnancy? I tried to squeeze out those tiny pus but they reappear again shortly after. Can this be a sign of implantation or something? I’ve never had such pimple outbreak before.

- 2022-11-18My LO is 5 weeks and a high need baby. He cries when being put down, changing clothes, changing nappies and taking a bath. He only stop crying when i feed him and held in my arms. Most of the time he's like that. It's so rare when he behaves. He's breastfeed, and his output is good also. I love him so much but can't help to envy other infant that are not too sensitive. I'm wondering if there's some mama here who experience the same as mine and wanna get some inputs. I have tried and read a lot of article about it but seems not working.

- 2022-11-18Is it concerning to see gestational sac with decidual sign but no fetal pole and yolk sac? The size suggests 5 weeks. Doctor suggested possibility of early scan or anembryonic pregnancy given im supposed to be 10 weeks based on LMP. 2 weeks wait for next scan is agonizing.
Update: we saw the fetal pole and a flickering heartbeat :) painful 2 weeks but probably more uncertainties to come in this journey.

- 2022-11-19Just went to KKH for my 10 week scan, under subsided scheme. Took two specialised tests. Some info for those who are considering this route!
1) FTS/ OSCAR; original fees $184 after govt subsidy it’s $92.
2) Antenatal blood test to check for a range of diseases; original fees $199 after govt subsidy it’s $99.50
These fees are before any Medisave deductions, cause I’ll be using company insurance first until I draw down to the limit, before using my Medisave! So I’m unsure if eligible for further deductions.
Harmony is offered at $750+ with no subsidies at the 10 week appointment. If FTS comes back with high risk, I think Harmony will be offered with subsidies for further testing.

- 2022-11-19My husband, many times I told him let me be alone when I'm stress, quiet or angry. I'm a human and I need to express my emotion too. Our space is small I have no where to hide myself to vent my emotion. He took everything to himself. He always think my target is him when I'm angry or scolding. He expect me to be soft spoken all the time, well behaved and control temper. I'm a human. Can't I have own emotion? He said I like to give instructions but if I don't give instructions he won't move or don't know what to do. my child has learning disability. I need to train him those daaily basic things so that he won't get laughed discriminated by schoolmates and teachers. I can't always be angel to everyone. I have my frustrations too. Can't he always put in his mind to take initiative to help, I don't want to keep saying and giving instructions. I'm tired.

- 2022-11-19I'm not one of those lucky mums who can shed off the post-pregnancy weight gain. Post-partum depression hit me hard, so staying fit on top of taking care of my baby without helper or family's help just wasn't on top of my list.
Just went to a wedding and the first thing my inconsiderate aunt and uncle who haven't seen me in years since covid was "wow you've put on weight", in front of other relatives. It was embarrassing and hurtful. It's not something that can just be ignored and then move on from. I was self conscious throughout the wedding dinner, and I am already dreading upcoming Christmas and Chinese New Year family gatherings where they may be more of such unnecessary comments from others. Realistically I will not be able to go back to pre-pregnancy weight in time.
So...***Are there any sassy witty mums here with a good, helpful comeback?*** A response that lets them know it's not okay to shoot their mouths off this way?? I don't wish to just smile and nod and say "ya lor", then feel embarrassed and self-conscious throughout the gathering.
If your advice is to ignore, no that's not practical. If a person says to you "Hey you've gained weight!", you can't just treat the person as invisible and pretend you didn't hear. You can't just stay silent, you also can't ignore and just walk off. To those advising to slim down by doing exercises or to face the truth, yeah sure don't worry, am in the process, but that's not the reply suggestion I'm seeking here.
Thank you in advance for those with practical advice (instead of "just ignore")!!!!!🤗
