Re: Moms 2012- 2013
cucumbers sure are, being a green veggie anyway :k:
well you could have 2 large one too. Who would have stopped. Healthy eating is all matters in pregnancy, no? 
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
lol. Cravings are so strange and weird. A lot of people on here nibble on multani matti 
Well I guess I am one of very very rare few who doesnt. My MIL was telling me the other day, she craved the smell of petrol. Just imagine! But well the MILS 
So do you really give in to such cravings or just repress? 
I have been so craving for bananas lately, and the bananas available in my town are as small as capsules 
(Wendy your small cucumbers might be bigger than those! )
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
DA this was for Wendy. Her husband scares her of fish owing to amount of mercury present in fish. I thought it better to give her the realistic idea of the calculations so that she may know which fish is harmful and which is not. Waise I personally liked akmotiās R months idea. Just that the R month is still about one month away. But well the fish lovers can CELEBRATE concurring R months coming

Re: Moms 2012- 2013
Wow. Didnt your care-giver and others tell you to eat full of proteins and all that jazz I am told like 100 times a day 
Well I cant eat veggies but I do love lentils 
A good source of protein that is :k:

Re: Moms 2012- 2013
Ok a question for all you ladies in Pakistan.
Are the husbands allowed into the labor and delivery room at the hospital at the time of delivery?? I have heard that husbands are not allowed .. are you guys ok with that? And if so whoās gonna be with u in the room?
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
In india male staff is allowed including ward boysā¦but husband is big no no for hospitalsā¦
In government hospitals women are slapped by nurses during natural pregnancy if they are making lot of fuss over labor painā¦
One woman from my village lost her baby as she jumped of the operating table in a rage due to slap by nurseā¦
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
omg WHAT??? 
That is the most outrageous thing Iāve ever heard!! Is that really that common??
Here women giving birth are treated with so much love and respect .. I think I even kicked the nurse when I was having contractions .. she didnāt say anything to me lol
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
Wendy I am not quite sure since this will be my first time. i dont think they allow anyone else except for their own staff. This is what I remember from when my SIL gave birth to my niece and nephews.
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
I am talking about government hospitals across indiaā¦and same must be true about pakistanā¦
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
Mirage: In US, husband is allowed to go in labor room.
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
Donāt you want hubby being there with you?? 
My husband was very helpful during my labor and delivery .. He still likes to fight with me over who saw our baby first 
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
Someone needs to set these nurses straight. Slapping their patients is just unacceptable
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
How could you know that? daal main kuch kala hai
Re: Moms 2012- 2013
With time i hope it will changeā¦if one is privileged then the person can opt for private hospitalsā¦which give quality serviceā¦
