Wow vivavia, we r quite similar! Baby and wedding came hand in hand for me too, cos i thought it wont be easy for me to conceive so din take any precautions
I just gave birth last mth. Pregnancy journey was relatively smooth except for GD, which is quite common among those with PCOS. But this can be essily controlled with a sensible diet
Congrats to u again and enjoy the pregnancy journey!

I too have PCOS . Gave birth to a bb girl this feb.... not sure what is it that scares u but like wat oscar lee said, there is a high chance u get GDM but that is not a big issue with diet and lifestyle modification.
Online articles are like saying it can be higher risks etc etc etc. *trying not to think too much*
Yeap luckily I have been adjusting my food selection since I was diagnosed with PCOS and I can no longer eat too sweet and perfectly ok with complex carbs. Quite a bummer I cannot have salad now so adjusting my diet again. Now still a bit overweight but don't think I can do much strenuous exercise at this moment. Just walking my dog as often as I can now. LOL

Ya vivavia dun worry too much, worrying on its own is already a risk
...PCOS is partly hormonal related so if u think happy thoughts, it will definitely help u a great deal. I was prescribed "an tai yao" by gynae during the first 3 mths to reduce the risks. Thereafter i just try to reduce stress at work, do things tht made me happy, take supplements faithfully, and then countdown to the day of welcoming my little jewel.

i think now tt u r preggie no need alrdy ba
I was on TCM before i conceive, but stopped cos i didn't want to consume too many types of supplements (gynae shld have prescribed u with fish oil, calcium and multi-vits?). Was fully relying on the expert opinion of gynae since only they know what's happening inside my body) during pregnancy, and will resume TCM to tiao aft confinement.
Yes yes yes. Is Dr Chen Qiu Mei. Queued for months so kinda curious if I should go look see look see and hear what she has to say. *Curious*
My first gynae visit is next Monday. I will ask him if I can go visit TCM.
Nods nods nods... Maybe I'll transfer the booking to my friend.Is that your first consultation with her? If you've not been seeing her before your pregnancy, perhaps you should just stick to your gynae instead.
Good luck
Thanks!!!

You may also seek professional advice from your gynae when you're visiting him/her next week, no harm asking also, heh.
