It's fun! :) We don't know the sex yet, we told the doctor not to tell us, as long baby is healthy.... :)
 
hi girls....
i am heading in to week 17!! times is flying by!!

cant wait for the kicks!! havent felt anything yet!! my sis is turning in to week 42 this week.. she has booked in for c section for this fri/sat w dr mak! keep u posted!
 
Good luck to your sister. Is she doing C-section bc she's late? Or because she decided to in advance? Anyway, good luck to her and happy new year! :)
 
hi all...
happy new year! all the best..... for the rabbit year! we be having a rabbit bb!!
my sis finally gave birth on the friday, 2nd day of the chinese new year!
BB and her are well.. she went in to hospital around 3 am,.. and had to call the doctor in etc... and had c section.... as according to her.. she was in pain already! due to the timing and the chinese newe year holidays, her room rate and hospital charges are going to be a lot higher, double? not sure exactly!
bb is 3.55 kg.. and my sis is well... she said not sore and recovering well! could already get off the bed on the 2nd day!

hope u girls are well!
 
tks!! gracey how re u feeling? how many weeks now??
i am heading in to week 18! i think i might have felt a bb kick last nite! a proper first one! but of coz i am still not 100% sure.. it feels like someone flicked me! but since no one else was around.. i assume its the BB!!!

Back to my sis .... i forgot to mention she stayed in the private single room.. not the deluxe as there is only 2 of those and they were all booked out! only the single rooms allow the bb to be wheeled in to the room and then the mother and visitors etcc can all hold, see, touch the bb.. also the mom can breast feed etcc.. and they dont take the bb until u tell them to! they also taught/helped my sis to breast feed as well!

the nurses were all v good..
 
Hi ninimo,

Congratulations to your sis! Guess you must be enjoying the baby kick now! :)

By the way, is your brother in-law allowed in the operating theatre? Can you help find out the total bill from your sister? Although it is during CNY period, we could use it as a guideline... Thanks!
 
hi ya.. bro in law was allowed in.... total bill was around 120k... a bit more expensive than usual coz of the CNY period..... and she was in the private rooms..... only private/deluxe private rooms allow the bb to be wheeled in... all other rooms. u have to walk out to see bb or feed bb in the feeding room!

how are u girls doing?
 
hi ninimo, thank you for the info!

By the way, I did not pass the glucose tolerance test. According to the hospital, my reading are slightly higher than the standard. I seen the nutrition last week and she gave me the meal list to follow for a week, and I need to admit to the hospital on this coming friday, to let them carried out the test again each time after meals. They also want me to rent the glucose meter to measure my glucose level at home daily. Frankly, i dont really feel like going. It's so troublesome... and according to them, I am not serious case, just slightly over normal.

Did anyone have the same experience? Any advice?
