Are you new to Chennai Moms?

Hi ..

ur weight gain is normal ... dunno how tall u re ..

mine was normal delivery .. i got my labour pain at office, came to hospital n delivered in 3 hrs ..(delivery charges - 35k)

tips:

i worked till th last date .. so was not idle n kept walking

used to eat loads of fruits n tonnes of water ..

dunno wht helped.. but i can suggest u to walk n do breathing exercise...relax n normal household chores .. will do .. (All th very best)

hey chikki,...

as far as i know...u r walking much and that itself is enough. Drink lots of water and eat more fruits as sangita said. U r climbing the stairs every three hours...dunno...how u r managing it in the 9th month...but that is really very good for normal delivery.  Whatever you are doing now is enough for a normal delivery. Rest...leave to nature and God.

A freind of mine had a normal delivery in SMF about 2 months back. It cost around 18K.

All the best.

mine too was a normal one doing all kinds of work as u did. i got my labour pain early morning, called my mother to come as i was staying alone with my hubby.i did not cook for my mom was bringing, i packed my things to the hospital,called my in-laws and i was very happy and excited that i am going to see my baby.my mom reached around 11 am and i was chatting with her, ofcourse pain was there after long intervals.

reached hospital(mehta's clinic, chetpet) at 6 pm after basic procedures they made me to lie down on the bed(it was like a long hightable) giving drips.

my mom's advice was to follow doctor's instuctions, stay relaxed, dont shout or scream when it pains.the pain was bearable like periods pain but the intevals was decreasing as the time passed.finally at 9.30 pm i delivered a girl baby without any difficulty.

so i wud like to tell u to be relaxed, dont think of anything of what is going to happen and follow what ur doctor tells u and ur fav prayer must be running in ur heart.

cookin, packing n workin is much easier ..

after delivery u ll know ... its very diffi to do baby sitting :)

as said by sangitavijai.....all the chores which we were doing before delivery seems to be like nothing compared to what we do after delivery.......and of course...we will enjoy it....

Mine was a normal delivary.

I think that u r doing a great job! keep it up.. this is enough and u r weight gain also seems to be  normal .Eat lots of fruits ,greens.Drink plenty of water.Keep walking take rest .Be relaxed.Avoid bottled drink like coke.

Listen to music.Better to call your relative or care taker before a week of delivery.Just for a moral support.There are some list of items to be packed for hosiptal you can get that list from CM tools.Have a look and choose whichever you feel is necessary.

I also would like to share my experience .As my liquor was reducing doctor advised to get admitted before10 days itself.I went there with my hubby and mom.I had no pain at that time and that day evening doc first gave an inj to induce pain..no gain:(.The next day morning they gave 3 pills to induce pain it was like ahhh!! in the third pill i got the pain it was bearable from 12 pm to even 6 pm .i Stayed  calm.The pain was acute ,once in 3 min.(12-6) and lasted for 1min.Again docs had a check up by 7pm and they asked me to lie down for trips then pain started increasing like anything.I followed the docs advise and the midwives helped me a lot.She is a very old lady,also the same once who helped my mother for my moms delivery.

My mom was near me and i dint shout or make a scene.I just thought myself to be bear the pain,after all its for my cutie kid.I was murmuring in pain till 9.10 pm i delivered a baby girl.

Once i saw her i really  felt like WOW!!So cute!! And kissed her.My mom was the first to get her from the mid wife and she was jumping in joy and thanking god with tears!!..

hmm she is 5months and 3 wks now.

All the best!!

 Hey Chikki....

Mine is normal delivery.. i used to drink litres and litres of water and fresh juices.. eating carrot in fresh was my favorite that time. I used to walk in the evening to the near by temple..walking inside the temple will keep my mind in peace...

As a physical work..U sweap ur home and as u said walking with puppy and clothes drying will help u better.. I used to do work at home and also i do exercises which my doctor advised..

Dont sit and watch any horror movies..better watch comedy and laugh.. listen to good music or read any good books..

Keeping ur mind in peace will make you healthy in many ways..

I Pray for ur normal delivery..

Hi penitia,

From the above conversation i found that you underwent your delivery in Dr. Mehat's hospital. Will it be possible for you tell me the cost of normal and C- section delivery

Thanks in advance....

Thanks to everyone for sharing their experience... I am in final week of pregnancy and awaiting for labor pain.. Your experience boosted me up.. Now feeling relaxed though i was tensed a little sometime back before reading the experience of others...... THANKS TO ALL

I feel some milk secretion but im 7 th month of pregnancy now,is it normal to secrete milk from the breast prior to delivery?

 It is not normal.please check with your doctor .if the baby is alive and healthy then don’t worry .

Ther may be watery secretion which is normal

I m 11^th week of pregnancy, I am healthy. Do I still need to take iron and calcium tablets? It will create any side effects.

 Most of the Indians are anemic and the diet is not sufficient in iron and calcium.hence  we advise routinely iron and calcium supplementation.they can cause some discomfort in the stomach for few people.most of the time it is well tolerated
