- 2023-04-10Im currently 17 weeks. From what i heard from alot of people, morning sickness will usually slow down or ease during 2nd tri but not for me 😭 Im still having it and always gagging and feel like vomiting. Esp when brushing teeth, always feel like vomiting. I have more or less zero energy, always tired. I cannot go out for long else ill get very tired easily and always need to sit down. And i still have food aversion and losing weight due to that. #advicepls #firsttiimemom #firstbaby
- 2023-04-10Im currently 17 weeks. I realised that i always get very tired easily when going out, and when i walk a distance, my baby bump (even when its very small) will feel heavy(?), hard(?), and sometimes slight pain, around below the baby bump. I always find it uncomfortable when going out, walking around.
I will usually need to sit every now and then. Do note that i only have a small bump but it feels like i already feel the heaviness of the baby if that makes sense.
Is it normal?
Sometimes i miss my old self whereby i can walk around for hours.

- 2023-04-10Whenever my in law family wanted to close to my baby, i will be very pissed off. I dont like my mil close to her or whenever she come to our place. the kids in the family love my baby so much and always surrounded us as i am carrying my baby, i feel so suffocated. my Mil has the access to our house and she will just come over quietly without inform or even knock and she will just open door herself like that. I know i shouldnt feel so whenever ppl trying to occupied my baby, but i just dont like it. Not sure if this is consider one of the depression symptom.. and i am trying to overcome it and be open minded abit but 8months already i still feels the same. #pleasehelp sigh…

- 2023-04-10Hello mummies,
My baby has started to roll from back to tummy at 11 weeks. She just turned 12weeks today. Just wondering if this is normal? 😥She did roll over from tummy to back before she learned this but for now she seems to have forgotten how to roll back and excitedly keep rolling to her tummy. Yesterday she rolled to her tummy while asleep and it woke her up crying. I'm so worried if she does this at night and we don't roll her over back in time cause we are all asleep. Have any mummies experienced this? Did you buy the anti-roll pillows for baby cot?

- 2023-04-10Wk 14, wearing loose dress and tummy nt obvious.
The Mrt was very crowded in the morning with everyone gg to work. I cant even see who she wanted me to give the seat to.
I told her im pregnant. She then said sorry but i said it's okay. I just glad she didn't react differently. Phew.
After a few stations, many alighted then I saw an elderly man, i think the lady wanted me to give up seat to this elderly.
So i felt bad but then i observed that there were empty seats then but he didn't sit too.
But cause i felt bad then i started to think if i should have given up my seat in the first place?
Any thoughts?

- 2023-04-11My baby is 2 months old and most of her bottle feeding has been a battle with her.
She drinks 100ml in average however have to takes multiple burp breaks as she will suck cry kick halfway through and that will take an hour for her to finish her bottle.
Any advice for me as ftm so that she can be less fussy during feeding?

- 2023-04-12Hi Mommies, I’m currently breastfeeding but my nipple getting sore & I noticed redness and kinda crack around it. I couldn’t pump or breastfeed my baby. It’s so painful. What should i do?
- 2023-04-12I’m 9 days postpartum with my first child and I generally have an easy baby. He wakes up for feeds every 2/3 hours which is normal. It’s just that everytime he wakes up for his 2am/3am feeds, he cannot go back to sleep and is fussy. My husband and I tried carrying him and soothing him to sleep, using his pacifier, taking him out of the room for some fresh air but nothing works so far. He usually will only fall back asleep after his next feed which is the next 2/3 hours.
Is this normal and what can my husband and I do?

I’m a #firsttimemom
I’m expecting and deciding to get a wooden cot. However in the day/noon timing, my room tends to get very hot and it’s not possible for us to on aircon 24/7.
I was thinking to push the wooden cot out to the living room daily, but thinking it will be very impractical.
Is there anyth newborn can sleep on in the living room with better ventilation? Or should I get a playpen for easier movement😭 please advise #firsttimemom #advicepls

- 2023-04-13Hey mommies! FTWM here.
My son is now in playgroup and his teacher’s feedback was when he was doing a classroom activity, he doesn’t seem to have eye contact. His name has to be called, then he will respond. She also suggested to see a pd as she’s concerned with my boy’s milestones. 🫤 My boy can’t talk yet, babbles a lot. Says a few words but randomly.
I’m concerned if this may be a sign of ADHD? My husband kept assuring me that every child is different and that we need to give him time before seeing a specialist but I’m worried. I guess he is a bit slower than his peers as he only started walking at 16 months old. He eats well plays well and responds to his name and has good eye contact.
I guess I’m now feeling guilty about all the screen time that he was given when I’m doing my chores.
Please share your experience, mommies. Thanks!

- 2023-04-13I’m a mother of a 16 months old. I’m in my current role for half a year but it’s a culture misfit and I dread to go to work with all the pointless meetings and unfulfilling work. So i had another job offer that came which provides me with opportunity and work life balance as well and something I want to move into. It’s scary but I decided to take up the role as I feel that it’s hard to come by and I’m not happy in my current role. I will be starting the role soon and my son will be transiting to play group in about 2 months time.
I’m having anxiety, am I selfish to move roles at this point in time? I feel so guilty. I don’t know what to do.
It just feels so hard being a working mom.

- 2023-04-13Hey everyone. Looking for some advice here... my 1 month old was born 2.4kg and now at 3.8kg, which dr at polyclinic said its okay. She is drinking 120ml FM every 2 hours which dr said is okay too.. bc dr said babies cannot overfed.
but recently she been vomiting her milk out and has been very fussy and has trouble sleeping (which wasnt an issue before) dr said keep a look out for dehydration if she keeps vomiting but so far she her urine and stool output has been normal.
I am trying to lessen her feeds by giving her 60ml hourly instead of 120ml every 2 hours but other than that, im not too sure what am i doing wrong? does it sound like my baby is overfed thats why she keep vomiting her milk out (almost half of her milk, soaking her bib every 1-2 hours)
Please help :(((#worriedmummy

- 2023-04-13Hello mummies, anyone experiencing low milk supply and how to increase it? 7 weeks postpartum but my milk supply for one day can only last for one feed and I’ve been giving formula milk for the rest of the feed. This has caused me tremendous stress as I really want to give breast milk for my child but with the low supply it’s impossible. So worries that my child might not revived the right nutrition with FM as compared to BM. Please help :(

- 2023-04-14Hi Mommas (or any doctors/gynaes here),
I gave birth via C-Sect, stopped b/feeding after my son turned 2 months old. He is now 10 months old. However, I have not had the first cycle of my menstruation. My tummy too hasn’t subside a single bit, everyone thinks I’m still pregnant. It is confirmed I am not pregnant now. I did my tests & on top of that, I had Implanon Insertion done from the third day after I gave birth. Does this contribute to the missed periods throughout? Or is this something I should worry & get myself checked? #advicepls #firsttimemom #firstmom #worriedmummy

- 2023-04-15Hi Mummies,
I am breastfeeding my 27 days old baby and today I noticed that there is a white bleb/blister on my nipple.
I read about it and it mentions that this can happen due to a blocked milk duct. It is a little bit painful when the baby latches but not very painful. Attaching the photo
Any mum who experienced this? Can please share how to get rid of this ? Thanks in advance 🙏
