due in May 08...

Hello Ladies & congrats to you all. I am also due in May (early) with my third child having had twins 4 years ago - it's been so long I'd practically forgotten what it's like to be pregnant. I'm 15 weeks now, and feeling much better and have had more energy since about week 14, although I still need lots of sleep and suffer if I don't get it. Nausea has gone, as long as I feed myself when I'm hungry.

I've been here since March, live up on the Peak and am booked in at the Matilda.
 
Hello all,

First and foremost, congrats to all of you.

We are expecting our first in April, delivering in Matilda.

I'm 17 weeks and am now starting to get my energy back this week. In fact, I'm now starting to get bored with being at home. I used to work but suffered hyperemesis so had to quit my job. I'm not quite sure yet how I'll pass the time until baby is born...although I may regret saying that when we reach third trimester and start to get ready for the new arrival!

I live in Kennedy Town, Smithfield Terrace. i'd Waiting for some goodnews from all of u here..thanks
 
Hi Tijo Dessy,

I only just saw your post! Welcome to Hong Kong! The nearest hospital to you from Kennedy Town would be the public hospital Queen Mary - which is on Pok Fu Lam Road. Are you going public or private? If you are wanting to go private, then the options on HK island are Matilda, Adventist and Canossa (as far as I know). The Matilda is on the Peak, Canossa is on Old Peak Road which is on the way up to the Peak and Adventist is in Happy Valley. If you google search the hospital names they all have websites to check out.

Good Luck!
 
hi there! i am due in first week of May 08', and currently in the UK. Will be arriving in HK in Feb, and currently doing pregnancy yoga in London. Which are good places for pregnancy yoga/aqua aerobics in Hk? Congratulations to all!
 
Breast pumps and after care...

questions about what you are all doing...

was thinking of having my mother come initially for about 2 weeks after hubs has to return to work, but not sure, as my dad's health isn't so great and he tends to not do so well when she is gone. any idea what the cost is to have someone come in and help around the house and/or help me part time after the baby is born until I am recovered?

also, what are you doing about breastpumps? I was going to get the medela pump in style, as I have always heard they are best, but it seems there is only one available in Hong Kong, the backpack version, is that right? Maybe I will order one in the US and have it shipped to HK...

I'm in the US now but looking forward to returning to the much warmer climate and my own home next week in HK.

Thanks for any suggestions!

pure yoga

Thanks Bel!

I sent pure yoga an email already asking them about prices, as i would only be doing that class and no others. Does not seem like there is an aqua aerobics class in HK though which is a shame because it would have been nice to continue.
 
Hello people! Does anyone have an Xplory Stokke or a Bugaboo and which one do you suggest is better? Am confused about which one to go for between the two.
 
Was just reading the old posts and noticed you are due around the same time as me Pregnant Bel. I am also due May 9th and in Matilda. Will arrive in HK 28th of Feb and can't wait!
 
I am a maternity nurse. I have experience with single baby and twins. I am a HK permanent resident, being here since 1994. I work day or night shiftsor 24/24 to help mothers cope with the arrival of a new baby in the family. I have excellent references. If you want more details, just email me.
