Comfortable pumping

MY MUMMY FRIENDS!! I have some good things to share if u are pumping! First, invest in hands free wearable pump (i m using breast friends forever), do housework when pumping! Win win! Second and most importantly apply cooking coconut oil or olive oil !! This was the very factor that made me contemplate whether should I continue pumping because my nipples are so damn sore! Now with lubing, i feel much much much more comfortable (no more pain) and it encourages me to continue pumping! #goodthingsmustshare

Thank you for sharing!!!!! Cooking oil on nipples?

Hello, need some advise about tradition. For baby full mth, who shld I give red egg and angkukueh to? So for relative we will have a small gathering where egg and kueh will be avail. So for the gift boxes, are for close friend or relative who can’t make it?

Give whoever that is attending. For other close friends or relatives who can’t make it, you can deliver individually or just make do without it. (Optional)

38 Weeks (Vaginal Discharge)

Dear Mummies, TMI. Need help. I was peeing and washed it off with water. And as i was wiping dry, there's this discharge like in the photo. Is this normal? Or am I having some infection? Will it affect my baby? I peed again but the discharge was now clear. I am seeing my gynae tomorrow but can't help but worry as i do not have any discharge before this throughout my pregnancy and am GBS positive as of 30 Dec. #advicepls

Recommendation on angpao for confinement by own parents

My mum will be helping with confinement help during the cny period, because confinement rates by companies quoted at 5k is way too much. I intend to give her an angpao/ gift for the confinement, any recommendation on a reasonable sum? In addition, my parents/ in laws will be helping to take care of my child after maternity leave, is there any recommendation on a reasonable sum to reimburse their time?

Average, $1K~$2K. However, it still depends on how much you can afford and at the same time not having to struggle with your finance. Work out a sum, offer you parents/PILs to see if they can accept the sum. 😊

Appts at 38 weeks

Is it a must to go for the weekly appts with my gynae, I just find it very exhausting going out with my heavy belly and the need to pee so often. It’s okay if I just wanna sit at home till labour? #exhausted

The need to go for most appts is to ensure baby's okay, we are not depleting on amniotic fluid and of course of cervix already open/not open or baby's head engaged. I am reaching 38 weeks soon and will be having the last lap of check. No choice but have to do it so as to ensure everything's fine with me and baby.

hello! i’m days away from having my first child(boy). my husband have thoughts of circumcising baby early but i feel that we should wait a few years. thoughts?#firstbaby #firsttimemom #firsttimeboymom

If you were to do early recovery will be faster as compared to when child is older. Despite knowing that some parents did this when child are in primary school. But the child might feel the anxiety, nervous, crying murder etc and long hospitalisation. But if you were to do it now, nothing to be worried about as they are still baby and it will be easy for you.
