I had pre-eclampsia during my first pregnancy and know that I will be at higher risk to get it again for my subsequent pregnancy as well. Does anyone who was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia managed to prevent it from recurring during your 2nd pregnancy? Intending to plan for 2nd baby but i am fearful for recurring complicated pregnancy.

hello. how to heal after pregnancy?

Ultrasound scan heartbeat

Hi everyone! I went in for my scan few days ago at around 7w and the doctor detected a heart beat at 162bpm. He told me that it should be normal but upon googling, it seems like 162bpm at 7w is a bit too fast and normal range should be about 120bpm? Can anyone advise? Also, I started having some bad symptoms at 5w (dizziness, nausea, food aversions, sore boobs) currently at 8w and my symptoms seems to have reduced. nausea seems to reduced quite a bit. My appetite is also getting better. Is that something I should be worried about? 😭 isn’t it too early for my symptoms to get better?

My take would be that if the doctor, as a trained medical professional, isn't concerned, I'm not going to make myself scared haha. There's alrdy many things to worry about when pregnant, so I try not to add on more myself

Sex during pregnancy

I am currently 3 months pregnant and I feel extra tight when me and my husband try to have sex to the extend that it feels sore and painful. May I ask if this happens to other mummies too?

Breastfeeding and post partum

I gave birth to my son in march and since my discharge, life at home has been drastically different. The first few days were the toughest. I remember just continuously crying to my husband because every damn thing came at once. Handling baby, pumping, having sore nipples, rock hard breasts, low supply and little sleep...it was just so overwhelming. I expected it to be hard but not to this extent... One of the most stressful part of this experience is breast feeding. Since my son had to stay in the hospital for a while, he was bottle fed there. Given this he has developed preference for bottle. So when I went home, he refused my breast. Once, I forcefully gave him my breast, and he bruised my nipple. It was so pain and frankly the only reason why I kept trying was because my husband and in law was giving me a shitty hard time, saying that formula is not as good and that I should try to breastfeed. I honestly resent them in that moment because they have no idea what I was going thru. My breast was hurting and all they kept saying was just try and try to breastfeed, invalidating my feelings. Dear mothers I don't wish to scare you but please take care of yourself during post partum. There is no denying that it will be stressful. My husband during pregnancy was so thoughtful and caring. Now he still is but of course with the baby, priority goes to baby. I won't fault him. Things are different w a baby. Try to get as much help from your parents/family/friends. Get confinement food sorted. Get someone to help w the night shift. It's going to be tough but honestly when we walk out of this, there's really nothing else we mothers can't do. We give birth to a human baby (with no epi), have stitches, walk the next day, pump for our lil one every 3 hours and run on very very little sleep. I love my husband but men really have no idea what we go through...

Congrats on your newborn! It is definitely tough taking care of a newborn and having a good support system helps a lot with mummies’ health and recovery. If you need any breastfeeding support, you can consider joining the Breastfeeding Mothers SG Facebook group. They have counselors to help.

miscalculate my pregnancy... thought it was preterm labour

At just 8 months into my pregnancy... I suddenly felt intense cramps. Contractions all night long. I was terrified of going into premature labor. Coincidentally, I had been doing some heavy activity that day... and was a bit tired. I immediately went to the hospital with my husband. And you know what? Turns out I was really about to give birth. And want to know more? Turns out my pregnancy was actually 9 months! I was a month ahead of my estimate not because of premature birth, but because of MISCALCULATION......... oh my, I felt so relieved because I had actually planned to go on vacation before giving birth. But luckily, I was still at home and had easy access to the hospital. Be careful and always make sure your pregnancy is safe, parents. Anyone had a similar experience?

husband wants to have sex everyday

sorry if it sounds too vulgar, but this is what I've experienced. Hopefully, someone can respond... Since I got pregnant, for some reason, my husband seems to be more aroused. He always wants to have sex almost every day. I've said, "Maybe not every day... I'm worried something might happen to our baby," but he always says it'll be slow, and he also wants to make the most of the time before I can't anymore (meaning after childbirth, I'll definitely need to recover and focus on taking care of the child for a while). I had a little bleeding once, and we went straight to the hospital. The doctor suggested reducing the frequency of having sex. It was reduced for a while, but a week later, it happened again... I'm confused about how to handle it. He seems a bit selfish... but on the other hand, I understand he needs it. What should I do, parents?

Which breast pump is the best?

I’m a FTM and I’m very lost on how do we know which brand of breast pump is the best? Eg. Hegen VS medela? Is there actually a mummy crash course on this kind of stuff where we get to learn tips and tricks for choosing baby items? Appreciate any advice. Thank you.

I'm using Spectra and it's pretty good! When I was researching about breast pumps before buying, the two names that usually pop up are Medela and Spectra. I own the S1+ and it can extract quite a lot of milk. The only thing is I haven't gotten the hands free ones, so I gotta hold on to the pump in one hand. I'm not sure about the crash course, so maybe someone else can share. All the best!
