More on Getting Ready for Baby
2 more days, I will be 36 weeks pregnant. Another 1 week to be considered full-term, and baby will get doc’s greenlight to pop liao. Am getting more and more anxious. 
My boss came back on Wed from her holiday. Work starts to get busy again. I will be busy until my temp relief is fully geared up to take over my work. Originally I wanted her to join us on 15 May. Given that my EDD is on 28 May, this will give me 2 weeks to train her and handover projects.
However, given the high possibility of earlier delivery, my own guestimation is, baby may pop during the week of 8 May. My boss is worried, so I asked my temp relief to come in on 2 May, just in case.
In fact, I really wish for my baby to pop week of 8 May also, coz my tummy is just too big now that I find it hard to have any movements!
I’ve packed my hospital bag. The outstanding stuffs can be handled by DH even after BB popped out.
I think I want to have epidural this time. Was not decisive earlier, but after going through the painful contractions 2-3 times a day, for the past 2 weeks, I changed my mind. I have enough of this pain already, I don’t think I can take it anymore. I want epidural! Must let my doc know about it next Wed during my check up.
Ouch! The painful contraction is starting again… got to stop now.
better stop now and prepare for it mentally
good luck!!
all the best!!
have a good one!!
Oh..baby comes out soon…
Good luck!!
try the epidural lah..
too scary for the contraction liao lahhh..
ya beter prepare early, as my case 20days earlier wo… my mum need to do all the last min shoping, go pasar buy all the ginger things.
as for the epidura, i not give sugestion… coz me not the one pain pain ma. but SSM didnt take for both time lo… si JiaLak :p
Very exciting time for you.. Suzette..! i wish for you a quick and safe delivery..
Wow!!Another baby want to come to this world soon
Do keep us update, takecare yourself.
I am excited on your behalf too .. It’s always excited to anticipate the arrival of a bundle of joy.. But if possible, try not to take epidural lah.. that’s my personal opinion.. Since the pain is there already, try to tahan first lah… If really cannot tahan, then …. make epidural the last option..
whoa..4 more weeks to go..all the best. I’m just 8 more weeks
egghead: cannot stop ler, even my replacement comes in, I still have to work until last minute, coz I am reserving all my leaves for post natal. hehehe!
huisia: thanks!
msau: how you feel about epidural?
lockee: your wife’s 2nd time so fast, no need epidural lah, waste money only. Hahaha!
MamaBok: thanks! I also wish for that – quick and safe! :p
1+2mom: :p I hope I am not giving everyone false alarm.
Angie Vun: hey, any reason why you discouraged epidural? I really want to hear from people fr both sides lah!
jazzmint: oh, so our babies are 1 month apart… All the best to you too!
not to scare you but two of my colleagues took epidural and then they have side effect now, back pain.. according to them it’s due to the epidural. And one of them said the epidural didn’t really work cos the doc. put it at the wrong place… erghhh!
