I know it's prolly the wrong place to, but I sometimes post stuff about parenting here

Most of the regulars here are parents (or at least, soon-to-be ones)..

btw, congrats to both you and Syd G!

Syd,

I jsut left my wife with baby as well as confinement maid for resuming my work. Guess what? The strangest yet exciting thing happened. During first week of her birth, I accompanied my wife, and I sang lullaby, talke to her as well as pat on my daughter`s head before she sleep/after her milk meal.

This practise went on for days.... and today I left, and guess what? she cried the whole day and my wife didnt know what went wrong... milk is fed, diapers are dry etc.. and finally... few strokes on the head, and she sleeps.... ahaha

Got few videos that I posted on my FB. Looked ku ling ching kuai... You can PM me if you wana see...

Dont wana post it publictly

This is your first Syd?

Neonatal Bilirulin level still tangling 11.5.. mostly due to early labour.. but thanks to mother milk, the facial complexion is getting better

Oh yeah, lookie here : https://forum.lowyat.net/Pregnancy&Parenting

Syd,

Thank you.... Sometimes my daughter scare the heck out of me.. slowly, she unwrap the blanket... and out of sudden, she kick her leg up and hold it like this

i was reading this thread from the beginning till the end .. very informative, very 'live' and definitely all are helpful and responsive ..

... i think i will spend the next 9 months in this thread

Well, wife was late for period and bought a pregnancy test kit. Turns out positive ! Both of us very excited. Been trying for a year after her miscarriage.

I've been reading up alot but i think for this weekend, we would like to see a gynae. Could anyone recommend a friendly and good gynae in KL? Really want her to have a smooth 'journey' where possible and at the same time feel comfortable goin thru this experience

I'm just too excited ..

I LIKE!

to be honest, go to government`s klinik kesihatan near you....

I first visit private hospitals(which greeted me with smile) and gave me cin cai service when know that I wont be giving birth there(but my wife`s hometown)

the nurse in klinik kesihatan really serve with their heard.. really respect them......

while nurse in private hospitals sometimes show you sour face when you are bit difficult to serve

Is there a listing of all the Klinik Kesihatan in KL?

Been going to Gleneagles for the checkups so far but my wife wants to go to a public medical center too, maybe she just wants a 2nd opinion at times.

I went to the end of two spectrums - did my necessary scans (first time, 2nd time, 6 months, 36 weeks) at Prince Court and the monthly checkups at Klinik Kesihatan.

The KK that I went to didnt have scan machines, they'll refer you to hospital if they sensed something wrong.

Thanks Syd. We're planning to start monthly checkups at Klinik Kesihatan, so far it's been monthly checkups with Gleneagles which we will continue. It's our first, and we want to cover all bases.

thanks for the advice. went to see a gynae clinic in tmn pertama .. so many clinics there.

doc confirmed wife pregnant and gave some folic acid and vitamin pills. Got charged RM100 together with consultation and scanning (cannot see anything yet)

Because sometimes the hormone level not enough to register a nice red line ler. Did the doctor draw blood from you or ask you to pee on another stick?

Cheaper stick means u dont need fancy sticks to do pregnancy test. Even the el-cheapo ones are quite accurate.

Now that I stared long enough into it, I did see something. Safe to retest again next week before going to the doc. If ur too kancheong then go tonight le

no la.. not doctor.. coz like this... my story...

on august some where, forget which date, i finish my Mercilon and stop the pack. Early September when I was on holiday, I have few spotting look like period, then no more. Sept 23 my period suppose to come but didnt come, so after few days, we initimate.

p/s: before i took Mercilon, my period is irregular. So I assume my period also will irregular after i stop the pack.

So until now, I'm 13 days late and this morning I took the test. At first I cant see the pink line. Then after few hours, i was surfing youtube about pregnancy, and saw a video of a couple, tested, got a fine pink line and she is pregnant. So i took out my test kit and see, really got fine line..

So, i Google everything and there is possibilities if I'm pregnant. I asked my dear to buy me more sticks tonight. Going to test is tomoro morning as they say morning is accurate ma.. LOL

Means u did see the fine pink line rite? Oh my...

so many daddies n mommies here eh ..
my wife EDD this jan 30.. just few days before CNY..

now started the stock up spree whenever got sale/warehouse sale..

Just a tip, don't stock up too much on the baby bajus (0-3 months, 3-6 months). The baby will outgrow the bajus pretty quickly. Wash daily the bajus they wear.

Congrats and good luck!

Helo Seniors..

I just wan to know.. My girl... she is having her period late this time.. and its almost 2 week already.. i let her tried the test kit on wed morning and tested negative... and plan to let her test again today night.. can i know.. wat else can effect periods being late..

Last month she had Irities (sore eyes family infections) ~ 1 week.. and she use doctor advise medicine kinda strong.. which cure in 4 days.

then she had some stress up in mid week due to work.
later on she had fever few days ago.. i gave her panadol and she recover next day.

and yesterday i just bring her eat foods which can bring period come faster but not working ?

I think its a bit risky if your girl is pregnant and u "bring her eat foods which can bring period come faster"... certain food like raw pineapples and such would cause miscarriage according to some chinese believes..

If u wanna know whether she is pregnant or not, she can do a blood test to test for HCG levels at any clinic.
