2023-07-31Hi, fellow mummies! FTM here.. I'm currently 38 weeks and considering membrane sweep.. it was mentioned during my previous gynae checkup. So just wondering if any of you here ever went through with this procedure and is it recommended? Also, I'm having this irrational fear that my baby doesn't want to come out.. 😅 because I've yet to see any dislodge of mucus plug or bloody show or any major signs of labour. Just a lot of pooping time, "menses cramp" feeling and sore back. Is having a "bloody show" a right of passage for Labour or not always? Thank you to any of you for answering my worries.

I am thinking of co sleeping with my baby by moving her crib in my master bedroom when the confinement nanny leaves us in 1 week's time. however, I am worried that i may disturb my hubby sleep during midnight when I feed the baby or the baby cannot get used to my room (co sleep with me). Should I continue to let baby sleep by her own in her nursery and feed her in the nursery instead ? I worried she is alone by herself in the nursery while I sleep in my room.#advicepls #FTM

2023-08-01My maternity leave is almost up and I'll be returning to work soon. Baby will be at IF when I'm at work. Have been exclusively breastfeeding baby for awhile and only recently introduced the bottle. How do I know how much milk my baby needs because it seems every time she's bottlefed, she asks for more. The amount I give is based on this feeding chart.
2023-08-01My baby just turn 3 months this week and has been crying for a feed every 1.5-2 hrs, currently ongoing for 3 days already, full latch. I read online that baby goes through a growth spurt at 3 months but however, there is very little info on it. I never had a problem with my milk supply until 3 days ago when this ‘cluster feeding’ happen. Even if i tried using bottle today, my baby also cry for a feed in 2hrs 15mins. First bottle: 100ml. 2nd bottle: 80ml. After this 2nd bottle, i latch her (feed her again) in 2hrs. Any other parents going through cluster feeding now?

2023-08-01Hi! My 8.5mth old doesn’t want to drink frozen breastmilk anymore. He latches most of the time, and only take bottle about 2 days a week when I go to work. He takes in solid well too, and is not on any formula milk. I have tried adding the breastmilk to cerealac and Oats, but he had rejected them. Thinking of adding just a small teaspoon of Milo Gao (no sugar) into the frozen breastmilk and let him drink using by straw. Any mummies done this before? If yes, pls share the outcome/effect. Thanks! P/s. I am aware that it is not recommended to add Milo. But am looking at another alternative besides formula.

2023-08-02Hi Mummies, Lately my 19 weeks old moves around in his sleep and I always find him in different positions in his cot. Sometimes he is very close to the railing of the cot and sometimes he will sleep on his tummy. But I can see that he sleeps comfortably. As a first time mum this is very new to me and worries me. I feel like putting him back to his position but also worry that will break his sleep. What do I do ? Is this kind of behaviour normal ? What do you all do when baby changes his position in sleep ? Photo of him sleeping so nicely disoriented in the cot haha
2023-08-02Is this positive?

2023-08-02Hi, to mums and dads who purchased this aia mum2baby policy, could you please share whether you went ahead with the whole life or investment linked base plan policy? And what kind of sum assured you took ? A little confused because I'm not sure whether a baby needs life insurance when newborn. I was quoted premium 1.9k per year for whole life aia mum2 baby protect. This is for sum assured of 200k and its one time payout for either death or CI. The premium seems abit on the pricier side, so just wanted to know what everyone got. For sum assured 250k, its 2.3k per year. Thanks in advance! #advicepls #FTM #firsttimemom

2023-08-02I had my 20 weeks detailed scan yesterday at kkh. The whole process took ard 2 hrs as they need to do a really detailed scanning and measuring of baby's development etc. There was 2 nurse accessing me. The first young nurse was gentle. She did most of the measuring. She asked if its too.pinful as she pressed. As she couldnt detect the lips of the baby after so many tries, she told me that she will asked a senior nurse to do it. But this second nurse was really pressing it my tummy so hard that it hurts. And keep making the "tsk tsk" sound coz couldnt see the lips as baby covers with his hand. My tummy is still very damn painful today from all the pressings. I need to come back for another scan next monday. Anyone experience the same? 😔

2023-08-02My mom always demands money from me and my siblings. No matter how much we give, it is not enough for her because she will "upgrade" and buy/ be involved in things that incur more financial commitment. When me and my siblings won't comply, she would cry, complain, and make up stories among the siblings and relatives such that whoever fell for her story would stand up for her and contact us to "advise" us. "Mom is old, and it's not right that you all are working and not pay her". If no one stands for her, she will drive to my sister house to make a scene, scold and curse us. As my sister lives with the in law, we eventually have to comply to stop her from harassing and creating all these troubles to the husband and in laws. She is 62 yo, not working since 3 years ago. Divorced and married a man, 57yo who works as a store helper. She demands a car, petrol to meet friends in the day, gym club membership, expensive MLM beauty and supplement products, weekly 4D gambling, and commitment to multiple insurance policies. She previously had a business where she used our money to sustain her shop rent, utilities, and pay business loan. If theres any profit at all, she would spend it on 4D and herself. No matter how much we pay her, she doesnt save a single cent. After the business closed down, if not because we found a job for my mom's husband, she wanted us to bear the cost of both of their living. Giving excuse that 54 and 59 are old and cannot work anymore. Both refused to look for a job until thankfully we found a store helper job for the husband. When she is sick, she would take videos and pics of herself and broadcast it to the siblings and relatives, and ask for more money on top of the allowances that we paid her. She said she is sick and doesn't have money to see the doctor, so we have to pay her for that. But the medical bills, she nvr shows us. Though this has been happening for years, now that I'm pregnant, with my pregnancy symptoms, I feel I can't take it anymore. And with the birth of my baby, I wonder if I want to continue to live a life controlled by her like this. Anytime, any day there could be an "explosion" from her. It's very off and my sister told me we have to endure bcs she is our mom. I feel extremely stressed, and I want to be out from this kind of relationship. How do I cut her off from my life? Blocking her doesn't help, as my siblings/relatives will come to me and forward her audio msgs to me. I hate it when she curses us. #pleasehelp #FTM
2023-08-02Hi, anyone didnt go for the ogtt after birth? What do u tell them and how do u test for diabetes after that? Nurses at polyclinic keep asking me abt it but to spend 3hrs+ waiting at the poly with my baby just doesnt feel ideal.
2023-08-03I've a 7 week baby and past 3 days he hasn't been waking up for his night feed. We tried to dream feed him but he won't be able to finish his milk.

2023-08-03Hi, I just delivered my baby 2 weeks back and had vaginal Stitches. On Saturday I think one of stitch came out n I was bleeding, I kept dabbing it with tissue and the bleeding stopped. I still feel the stinging pain. Has anyone experienced this?
2023-08-03My first born child is now 2 months plus. I am staying with my in-laws. They are kind to me and also adore my son very much as he is the first grandson to them. I have some arguments with my FIL previously as we have different views. He likes to carry my son for very long hours (2-3 hours) and always claim that he will definitely cry if he put him down. After much efforts I put in, my son now can sit on rocker/play on gym mat for 10-15 mins and also sleep on baby cot at night most of the times. He then said words like “eh, why he is not crying anymore?” whenever my son sit or play by himself. Now I feel possessive and hesitate to seek help from my in-laws. I even feel annoyed when they insisted to help me on something after I rejected them gently. On the other hand, I blame myself for having all these negative thoughts towards them.

Should i be concern about this and head down to kkh or this is normal. Dont want to head down to kkh and ended up have to be send back. What are the red flags i should look out for? Second pregnancy. Baby is actively moving.

2023-08-03But she sleep whole day how can i change her routine sleep timing i am so tiring in midnight#firsttimemom
2023-08-03Im 35 week now and have been eating quite healthily up till my third trimester but ever since I've entered my 3rd trimester, I just feel like eating junk all the time. Fried food, ice cream, snacks, bbt, macdonalds... all these food like at least once or twice a week. Sometimes I can eat ice cream 3times a week. I feel so bad to my baby, but I can't help it. I try to compensate and eat more fruits and veg in my other meal. Is anyone else like that? :( I really hope I'm not the only mama here who can not control her cravings. Will it affect baby?

2023-08-04Hi I am a first time mom and I am experiencing postpartum anxiety. I am worried I don't know how to take care of my newborn and I get flustered when she cries. There is a confinement nanny to help me but I am worried I can't cope by myself if I were to take care of baby alone at home. Taking care and bringing up a child is very new to me. Pls help. #pleasehelp #FTM #advicepls #firsttimemom #firstbaby
2023-08-04im a ftm and my newborn’s almost a month old. ive tried breastfeeding during the first few weeks but stopped due to poor latch (due to inverted/flat nipple) that caused trauma to my nipples. im currently bottle feeding with BM and i cant help but feel guilty and super lost about not breastfeeding my LO. ive thought about seeing a lactation consultant but just didnt feel like it’s necessary. theres also concerns about going out and having to pump, making sure to feed just on time so the milk doesnt go to waste and stuff like that. #advicepls
2023-08-04Hi mummies, my edd in few weeks time and am scared if baby dont want to come out by 39/40 weeks as i heard induced is much more painful. Do most first pregnancy end up being overdue and induced ? #FTM
2023-08-04I know during pregnancy there's always time tat will have mood swings. But today I have an extremely sad mood about missing my mom (although she just live just 5 mins away). And cried so badly. Is it normal?
2023-08-04Hi, i am currently 35 weeks pregnant, going to deliver at Thomson. May i ask what is given during the hospital stay? Unsure on what to pack for hospital bag.#FTM
2023-08-04I have yet to deliver but from what i read or heard, blood group O parents will most likely get baby with high jaundice. Is it true ? Will all babies get jaundice ? And if the jaundice is not so high, will they still need to extend their stay in hospital ? And usually how long does jaundice last? #FTM
2023-08-04Hi mummies, in the event you have to pump when youre out, more than once, how do you wash & sterilise your pump parts in between pumping ? #FTM
2023-08-04Hi Ladies, I am currently expecting my 4th, and I'm 31 weeks preggo. I am keen to try normal delivery after 3 years gap from CSec. I have 3 kids, and my first 2 were normal deliveries. However, my 3rd was induced, and it was kind of a failed attempt as it ended up with a low fetal heart rate, and i ended up being wheeled to the Operation Theatre. So I want to know if any ladies here have gone through such experience and would like to share a short insight of your experience for me to feel confident :) #advicepls
2023-08-04My baby is getting heavier week by week , gynae never suggest to induce. He say see next week when i hit 40 weeks how. Should i be worried? Bb weight at 3,2kg

2023-08-0428 weeks pregnant, I have no doubt that I love my baby. However, some days these whelming thoughts creep up on me… will I be a good mum? How do I juggle work and baby? How do I build a career while being there with for my family? Will my marriage with my hubs change? Will I be resentful? Is my hubs ready to be a dad? Will I be a good daughter to my own mum now that my I have to divide more attention to everyone? Can I afford to raise my baby and provide for him to the best of my abilities? Will delivery hurt? Etc… I’m currently not working, but planning to return to the workforce after I deliver. Though I feel excited and happy for my baby’s arrival, I cant help but feel useless/ helpless in some ways and fearful of what is to come. Sighs…
2023-08-05Yesterday i was worried that will be induced or bb wont come out until week 40. This morning i got brown and blood spotting, i guess the time has came! 🤣 When to go to hospital? My gynae say once i spotting i should go already but some mummies say that wait until contraction become stronger?
2023-08-05Is it normal for the spouse not to attend the second pregnancy appointments? I’m in my 32 week. The only time my spouse accompanied me for the appointment was the first visit. Subsequently, i went for all the appointments on my own as he had just started work. Next week, it’s the growth scan and booking of the Caesarean date. I just reminded him and he said, i thought we agreed for me not to go. I was very sad and i walked out of the conversation. After his statement, it kinda made me feel like he doesn’t want to attend anything with the second kid. It makes me feel sad. Just wanted to check if any second time moms experience this with their spouses.
2023-08-05Hi everyone, we are currently seeing gynea at TMC but planning to do delivery at KKH private. Any idea at what week should we switch to seeing gynea at KKH ? Is there any delivery package that we need to sign up at KKH ?

2023-08-05FTM, recently just bought nipple silverette. How do i use it ? Do i just put it on my nipples and leave it till next feeding/pumping? Or do i leave it only for few minutes. Some say can put abit of breastmilk on the silverette then wear it but wouldnt it spill on your bra ? And whats the logic of using silverette to help with sore/cracked nipple ? #FTM
2023-08-05I recently bought kotex overnight panties. Will be packing my hospital bag soon. I dont know if ill end up with natural or caesar delivery. Other than using the disposable panties & maternity pad hospital that the hospital will be giving, i heard alot of mummies use kotex overnight panties and thought of bringing it for the ward stay. Is 10 pieces enough ? How many did you bring to hosp? #FTM
2023-08-05Hi! May I have some recent good recommendations for postnatal massage (Jamu/Malay) that really helps on you? Prefer not those mainstream company ones… as I understand some of their good reviews may not be truthful.

2023-08-05Recently I'm been feeling mentally and emotionally unbalanced with my in-laws. Been living tgt since married and I'm pregnant w their first grandchild and they still decided to move out to their new house leaving me behind when I need them the most. Although as mentioned tat will come back frequently to help but I just keep feeling tat it's so not the right time. Now I keep telling myself tat just let them be and I'll be fine but on the other hand I keep thinking and worrying. 😔 I know I will always have the support from my mom but as her health is not tat good I oso don't want to. 😔 I just keep thinking about y can't the in-law support more when it's their first grandchild (their own blood grandchild). I'm so mentally and emotionally affected. 😭 #pleasehelp #firsttimemom #firstbaby #firstmom
