thank god! 11 days and counting!!!

Good luck with everything Cara, Im so excited for you. Make sure you get help with the breastfeeding and if you really want to breastfeed make sure you let the nurses know so they do go ahead and formula feed your baby for you. I will be intouch
love Kimmi
 
The pain frm section-c can be quite unbearable for the time time when you gain conscious but I could get out of bed and gained strength fast a day after . Good support frm the hospital's nurses are definitely needed. I got the nurse to help me to move the baby frm one side to another during the breastfeeding session. The nurses would even helped to hold the baby in such that the position is comfortable to mom & bub. Mine was in Singapore though.

Just make sure there are enough support frm the hospital during this time though.
 
Cara!

Today's the big day! Hope everything goes smoothly. Looking forward to seeing pixs!

GOOD LUCK!
 
hey guys!
my beautiful baby girl was born at 11;42am on Feb 6....she weighed in at 2.47 kgs (she ws a whole chocolate bar lighter than her big brother!)...

she's awesome! and not bad for sleeping...she's figured out the whole breastfeeding thing without too much trouble... except that she LOVES to suck... had to introduce a pacifier as otherwise i think my nipples would have fallen off!

big brother is getting used to having a baby in the house, trying to help as much as he can... he had a little difficulty allowing baby to BF... but that seems to have sorted itself out now.

GA wasn't nearly as bad as i thought it would be and i'd do it all over again if i had the choice.

hips and back pain seem to have subsided A LOT! and hopefully soon will be back to normal!

still no name for our little one, but we have it narrowed down to a few...
 
congrats cara, has your husband told you the meaning of the chinese characters of girl and boy combined together? ask him ok! take care!
 
congrats cara! glad everything worked out fine. good going on the bfing, and good health to you & your new bb!!
 
thanks guys...
mrs momo.. i know it means "good" "ho"...he never taught it to me though, it was one of the first characters i learned 12 years ago! LOL!
