[tinkerstars]

thanks ladies. it's comforting to hear that u all also sleep deprived these days.. guess it's normal for our stage



weishy, can we still do mani and pedi now? i read a book that says it's not advisable esp during 1st tri. As for hair, i think colour and perm treatment not advisable right? (i hear from colleague)

 

[tinkerstars]

jessica, wow.. you are pregnant with your 3rd one? and ur 2nd was 15 months? you will be really very busy...



and i guess u need to be extra careful since CHristophe is very active now... will take a lot of physical effort from u

 

[cutie_jace]

weishy,

sorry, i mean getting those "preserved sour stuff" from Spore, am asking a friend to bring over, she's coming for a holiday.

[tinkerstars]

[pinkyluv]

jessica



thanks for creating a group..pls add me too =) i just sent my request..Jo

 

[mangojuice]

Later going for my gynae appt... Just discovered that I ve brown spotting in the late morning. Super Sian now. Hope things going to b ok.

 

[leo_baby]

pinkyluv and ladies> if u eat pasta, pls do without the cheese as it is diary product and our stomach now should stay away from diaries.



Things to stay away includes beans and cabbage that generates a lot of gas.

 

[pinkyluv]

leo baby

how come no diary ..i was adding cheese like no tomorrow yest..ooops



mango

take care!

 

[bagmanic]

stay away from dairy products> I am drinking Anmum since my #1, when I know i have #2, I start drinking anmum twice daily.

 

[leo_baby]

Pinkyluv,



Milk products are known to cause indigestion as told by my doctor friends. Also one of the gals posted that her gynae also said so abt milk being a product to avoid. I am also stopping my anmum consumption for time being as ms now more often.



When i saw ur pasta pictures, my first thot was sure will throw up. And I was waiting to heard from u if u had thrown out. My guess was rite. But of course it also depend on ur stomach gas build up lah. if u build up a lot always make sure u munch the dry stuff to keep the stomach acid down. also eat slowly (it does works for me) to allow the food and gas to exchange place. if you eat too fast, food goes down and the whole lot of gas rite at bottom later it will push all the gas out together with the food.



Also i suggest u see dr to get mc lah instead of using your leave. once u giddy and pukey dr will give mc one. Save ur leave for other matters lor.

 

[leo_baby]

Karen,



Apparently the dairy content in anmum is not as bad as cow milk and cheese. I guess its because it formulated for us and it not the animals milk.

 

[leo_baby]

Karen> FYI i am also on anmum milk everyday but just chose to stop for a while till ms goes away.

 

[leo_baby]

Pinkyluv,



Also stay uprite for a period of time to allow food to go down and gas to comes out. don't lay down straight away.

 

[leo_baby]

I have seen in a tcm program before that a small boy with digestion problem for days and tcm just ask the mother to steam apple with honey to give to the boy and he recovered immediately.



Did some read up abt apple and honey and true enough i does have many helps. Found that we should eat an apple BEFORE meals to help indigestion and i will do that from today as i always do it after meals.



I have drank honey lemon water for last few days lunch and apparently i feel ok so honey does helps as its stated to have enzymes to helps with food digestion. so i may also drink before food or after food not sure yet guess will try both ways. so far i drink during and after food.



Just some research done to see if it does help u. again depend on individual as all of us has different hormone levels that is causing different ms symptoms. Also bear in mind that some honey are just syrups so make sure you buy the rite stuff.

 

[jokris]

Hi Mummies,



Hi Hi, can I joined too



Nick: Jokris

Age: 27

Gynae: Dr Loke K.H.

Hospital: ESH

Baby #: 2

EDD: 22 Sep 2010

Location: Pasir Ris



I have a 13mth old ger at hm.. keep sticking to me and refuses to let hubby carry her =(



I heard that gers will stick to daddy more right.. not true for my case thou..

 

[phyphy]

jokris

my gal also

she will chase her dad out of her room n close the door.

 

[maud]

Oops! I've been drinking milk everyday cos we read somewhere that calcium is impt in first trimester...will start taking honey today.



Betw, I sleep easily these days! Even on weekend, I took afternoon naps, and knock out again by 9pm. Symptoms of this pregnancy - lots of gas, keeps burping & sleeps alot [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[leo_baby]

xiao pang,



If what u have been doing everyday does not give u problem as u may not have any ms issue then stay on what you do good for yourself.



If u cut away milk and start honey and do feel a lot better that means it may be better so u have to be ur own judge and not do what everyone suggested.

 

[leo_baby]

jokris> Welcome

 

[cutie_jace]

[mangojuice]

Saw the gynae and was given An Tai Yao. Was advised to REST more... I wonder if my hb will start treating me like a QUEEN fr today onwards (since he was with me during the checkup).



Btw, my Edd is pushed to 17 sept. According to my gynae, I ovulated late. Anyway, is 7weeks n 4 days preggy as at today. But based on past experiences (for my #1 & 2), I always give birth when I'm 37 weeks +

 

[mangojuice]

Gals,



ve u started booking for ur confinement nanny yet?

 

[hlmommy]

Clare-u also in cx ma?if I do ground I will be in the hkg office.cheery lee also from hkg office?

 

[hlmommy]

Mango-yet to ask.but if u found good one that someone had tried before pls book her months before.they're hot like those post natal massage ladies



Jessica -heheh if u dun pt I dunno wat is wat also hehehehe





Clare-tat is for after deliery too very impt ar

 

[mangojuice]

Weishy,



I thot I was being super kiasu for wanting to book my fren's cf nanny 1 weeks ago, who knows there are others even more kiasu than me



I just book mine today n hopefully she is good (recomended by my gal's teacher)

 

[mangojuice]

Spicy food,



not sure if it's really true... When I had my #2, I always like to eat spicy food... And end up my son skin hor super lan4!!! (nanny said I took too much spicy stuff liao)

 

[mangojuice]

For those conceiving #2 & onwards,



another old wives tale.... Heard pple say that if ur #1 look like gal, #2 will be a gal (vice versa)



for my case, it seemed a bit accurate. When my #1 (gal) was small, she looked like a boy. In fact, I ve pple coming up to me n ask if she's a BOY. The most 'ridiculous' case that I ever kena is... Some asked if she is a boy even I dressed her in DRESS!!!! Obviously, either she is mad or she thot I'm a bian tai mama!!!!



Anyway, back to my story.... For #2, I indeed had a boy. for my #2, he has the 'gal look' so... I'm hoping #3 to b a gal but.... As long as healthy, boy or gal nevermind lah hor. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[tinkerstars]

jessica, how many weeks was that when you did your ultrasound? Mine was similar to yours. Only a black sac can be seen.



I saw online that by 7-8th weeks, can hear bb heartbeat and the body parts will be formed.



not sure if i will get to hear the heartbeat during next visit...

 

[nch]

Mango,hopefully ur hb will treat u like a Queen (^-^)
