Thanks Petrina for the apreadsheet!
(2012/06) Jun 2012
- Thread starter bluesapphire
- Start date
Petrina - Thanks so much for the spreadsheet, very useful.
But don't drink too much Gong Char (esp. with tea cos it contains caffine).
Loshita - Sorry i'm very blur, what is a seaband? And where can i buy it?
Wow, many mommies giving birth in June next year. i heard June is a popular mth besides Oct! Anyway it seems like many mommies are suffering from MS, must worse than their first pregnancy. Last night, I vomitted everything just after 2 spoons of dinner and 3 mouths of water. It was horrible!
Welcome Hilda!

Hi Peapea>> Yes I went to the gynae already. I went on 17 Oct, becoz after testing positive on 5 home kits... my hubby still don't believe it! He does not trust products that I can buy off the shelf... *roll eyes*
So I went online to find a gynae that is near my office and fees seem reasonable and I made an appt and we went to see him that every afternoon!
After I told the doc my hubby don't believe in the kits... we did a US but could not see anything! So we took a blood test. 2 days later the result came back, I am pregnant... about 2-3 weeks.... went for my 2nd US 2 days ago and this time we saw the sac! I am so excited... I hope we can find the heartbeat 2 weeks later when I go for my 3rd US... but I am in realy early stages... so not sure if in 2 weeks can see the heartbeat or not....
My gynae is Dr Brian Chow @ Lucky Plaza. How about you? Have you gone to a gynae yet?

hi peapea, maybe u shld eat some dry biscuits once u feel nauseous. Got this advise from other MTB & it really helps. It's also not good to puke with empty tummy.
If it's really very bad, u can ask ur gynae for anti-nauseous medicine.

peapea>> I think you should go see a gynae asap, at least just to get some vit from him la. Like for me, my gynae also say I am very early, but he still gave me Folic Acid to take. I later read that Folic Acid helps with the very very early stages of the baby's development... some even advise to start taking when you are trying for the baby so that the moment the baby is formed, he/she can imm get Folic Acid to help the development...
I think at least see the gynae once, start taking the vits... then the next appt can be the following month instead of in 2 weeks lo...
Anyway, which gynae did you choose?

pea: i also have similar problem. i guess it's old gastric issues coming back to haunt us.
esp in morning when there's nothing to puke, the gagging part will not stop until the yellow bile juice comes out. super horrid feeling. then whole bus journey super hungry, can't wait to reach ofc to have breakfast.
sleepwise, i have been slping early. ard 9pm. but very light sleep. i get woken up easily in the middle of the night. plus many dreams in between, so morning it was as if i nvr slept.
now i eat abt 8 meals a day.
morning half plate bee hoon
mid morning 1 curry puff
lunch half bowl plain porridge
mid afternoon 3pkt haitai crackers *interval of 1hr each*
dinner half bowl rice with some veg or plain soup.
then the issue of hungry stomach starts ard 2am.. but i'm too lazy to wake up to eat. so i let tummy growl till i fall aslp again.

Red tea, though I am not 35 yet but my #1 also failed Oscar test then went to amnion test. So this round if I decided to do test I will just go straigt to amnion cos oscar not cheap about 300++.
I just got to know a fren of mine MS till admitted hospital and dripping now, she is about 6-7 weeks now, so scary...i started to worry now. This sat should be my 6th weeks

Hi mummies,
Which brand of stretch mark cream is good? And can we start applying? I am at my 7th week and will visit my gynae in around 2 weeks time.
Currently have my 5 years old son but have to balance time with him, being mother not easy.. Hehe.

Anyone has Dr. Don Wong as gynea?
Is he good?
Thinking either him or Dr. Chen Lin Han as my gynea.
Sigh hasn't called their clinic yet to ask whether they will be available on June or not

Hi loshita,
you delivered #1 healthy so just pray and everything will be fine.
joanne, yes, being mother/father now is not easy, have to balance work and personal and family time, ask Daddy to play with him more since we're easily tired nowadays.
hi petrina,
no appetite still have to eat small meals, that's the way to curb nausea, if the stomach is empty, the feeling is even worse leh, just eat a few bites every now and then. Keep ourselves hydrated so that we won't feel giddy too, especially those who have low blood pressure. (that's what my gynae says)

Re frequent meals
I've been spending lots of money on food and sometimes only to take one whiff and want to puke. Last night had Japanese food then couldn't stand to finish. Got my husband to buy roti prata or carrot cake. He bought both and I couldn't stand their smell and taste and so wasted them. Still super hungry and ended up eating some bread when I wanted to eat the second piece, I saw that it was mouldy! Wah biang eh.
Today 's lunch same thing happened. Needed to buy second time.

Hi mummies,
I just saw my gynae this Tues for the first time. I tot i counted my cycle and I should have just ended my 6th week. But when the gynae scanned me, he said it's my 5th week straight away,despite him asking when my last menses was. Kinda puzzled. Anyone faced this before?
Just curious if it is common for the first visit. I read online stating that at 6th week, mummies can hear the heartbeat. However I didnt managed to yet. All the gynae did was ask medical history, drug allegy and last menses date, then went on with the scan. He is a very friendly doc, but he smiles so much and just wait for my hubby and I to talk. Didnt get much information from him regarding what are the do's and donts'. No blood pressure or weight taken. Now I'm seriously thinking if I should change a gynae. Any advice?
Glass: I got almost the same feeling as u. Tried to take food like bread, biscuits, porridge etc..but when I smell them or taste them, I just cant down the food. Very hungry but everytime I try to eat something, I feel nausea.

hi all,
i have tested positive last night, but haven't seen gynae yet. Appointment is next Fri.
This is my 3rd pregnancy. I have a 5 YO boy. 2nd pregnancy didn't go well, so this time, I'm quite anxious.
Yesterday, there was some light brown spotting. Hopefully it wouldn't continue...

I think it'll be pretty scary if the gynea isn't there during delivery.. Remember they need to stitch us back :S..
Especially if caesarean needed. I can't imagine..
Hasn't called other gynea. huhu.. still confused :S.
Other way is to pray baby will come out in May. Huehehhe.. Last time my #1 come out in 37 weeks, and I just missed 1 day from the day I dream she'll be born. Quite amazing last time in early semester I dream baby is born at 29 Sep, and she actually comes out in 28 Sep .
Nowadays hasn't dreamed anything about this baby..

The next test will be the oscar test, the gynae didnt give us a choice, he just ask us to go for it! : )

<font color="aa00aa">Just an intro.
I've been a silent reader and had tested positive on 18 Oct 2011. Estimated to be 5 weeks' pregnant now as I've delayed ovulation. Feel bad that I've been wasting my dinner (it's catered) as I couldn't finish it.
Intend to visit the gynae 2 to 3 weeks later when we should be able to see its heartbeat. Bit worried as my last pregnancy resulted in miscarriage at 9 weeks (heartbeat stopped).

if you want to scan via tummy, you need to drink lots of water before going to the clinic and hold your pee.
Suddenly I crave for crab. Huhu.. but just afraid if I'll have stomach ache after eating :S..

I think it depends on the gynae's machine. I never need to do that with my previous gynae but my colleague needs to have full bladder during every tummy scan with a different gynae. In fact, I always empty my bladder before consultation since I have to do a urine test at every visit.</font>
