Why do I need the TT injection (TT vaccine) in pregnancy and when will I get it?

Expert

A Tdap injection is recommended anytime from 16 weeks to delivery. It contains a vaccine against two viruses - tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough). Babies are not vaccinated till they are several months old, so for the first few months are not protected. When the mother gets vaccinated, she will produce her own antibodies against these viruses, and these antibodies are passed on to the baby, providing protection for the first few months before getting vaccinated.

Can my baby hear if I read and play music?

Expert

Yes, he/she can certainly hear. There are lots of reports on women reporting that their babies are more active when responding to certain sounds and music. No one really knows whether they are able to discern and listen.

Is there anything I can do to prevent my nipples from getting darker?

Expert

1. Make exercise your daily activity According to research, exercise for 4 hours a week can reduce estrogen levels and prevent breast cancer. This activity will also make your breasts look firmer and brighter. 2. avoid the bad habit of smoking breast cancer rates of women who smoke are 30 percent greater than women who do not smoke. This bad habit also causes the breasts to look saggy, pale, and certainly unhealthy. 3. avoid drinking alcohol Alcohol can cause reduced work of body organs.

Morning Sickness Fears

In my 1st trimester and not able to eat much because of morning sickness. Will this affect my baby's nutrition? #advicepls #pregnancy

Expert

Hi Nalika, I hope you are feeling ok today. As long as you are able to keep enough fluid and food down, morning sickness is unlikely to affect baby's nutrition. Some women however, have really bad morning sickness that they get really dehydrated. In this case, admission to hospital/health facility is warranted so treatment can be given. You can ask your doctor for medication to help with the morning sickness.

What do you want for your kids?

What do you wish for your kids, mummies? I'm curious to know. Personally, I want my kids to have a solid education, but also combine that with life experiences like those they get through travelling, or volunteering.

Super Mum

I wish my kids will be happy and healthy.

What are some of the most obvious signs of a baby's growth spurt?

Most obvious would be feeding on demand and can go up to an hour or so. Else, for mine would have changes in sleeping pattern. Shorter naps, cranky.

What's the best way to tackle a relative who has an opinion on everything related to the way I bring up my children?

VIP Member

The best way to tackle your relatives opinion is thank them and give them the valid source about why you raise your children that way.
