Yes, I encounter a few times backpain since I'm in week 13 (I'm in week 14 now) and therefore I go to buy something called 托腹帶 which help to relieve much.
Maybe I think this thing can carry the weight you your tummy to your back and relieve the pressure of your backbone la.
I sometimes can feel the heartbeat of my baby too and of coz most delighting is to hear his heartbeat through the ultrasound scanning.
Don't worry, I also feel my breast start to grow again and I feel painful when I take bath.... especially I feel my nipples are much more sensitive than before... ohhh?!
For now, I used to change all my underwears and find the situation gets better, no more pain on my breast and more comfortable.
Ansie,
I also have leg & buttock & back pain since 6-7th week (I am now at 17th week already...). Sometimes when I turn my body while sleeping, the pain will wake me up. :-( :-(
yip_paulina,
When should we start to wear 托腹帶? Does it really help? Are there different kinds/styles of 托腹帶 and how to choose?
托腹帶是我的一個好朋友介紹的。U may feel it abit hot coz it circle your waist BUT coz it can relieve abit of backbone pain/tiredness especially when u stand/walk/doing works for a long time... so I think it's okay la since I work in an air-conditioned office...
to cannytang:
my friend said to choose those which is standalone... ie not with the underwear also coz it's quite bulky and you only need the 托腹帶 in the daytime BUT not to bed... and so if you choose those with underwear, maybe u need to change your underwear before sleep.

P.S. it's optional to use coz I heard some moms in my church said they don't use this during pregnancy but still okay, so it depends on you loh!
I brought my underwears from Gennies 奇妮孕婦裝專門店, also not many choices BUT the prices are abit high... well, except 底褲 coz there's a promotion there BUT the sales can give u lots of valuable advices in choosing bras/accessories.
Actually there're lots of these kinds of shops in Causeway Bay (Lee Garden Road) and u can have a look on it la... or Wing On, Sincere, Jusco... Sogo, you can find them too...
I went to the prenatal class and the instructor said the 托腹褲 may not good for the baby because it gives too much pressure to the tummy.
Aiya, this morning I had 小 腿 抽 筋. People said it starts only in 5 month... I need to take more calcium
Yesterday I almost slipped on the stairs... my thigh hit the tummy. Luckily I will have the doctor appointment tomorrow. I would see if the baby has any problem. :-(
PoohPoohMaMa,
I hope everything is fine for you tomorrow, take it easy! Be very careful as it is so slippery outside too. I have one more week till my appointment. By the way, where did you go for prenatal classes? I haven't made any appointment for that yet.
I don't think I will try the 托腹褲 then, I won't be comfortable with the tight feeling.
NN,
It a relief to know that I am not the only one having pain It's normally worst after I sat for a while and get up.
