Yup. That's what he advised.
Hey panda, your bump is already showing? is this your second pregnancy?
Guess we have to play safe.....
Hey JAPL, i have the same problem as u. For the first time, even the virginal scan cant detect anything.... its only till the third visit. So wait a while, dun get too worried...

I'm showing a little already and this is 2nd pregnancy. I think I already gained 1kg!! I was up 1 kg from my last pregnancy so now am 2 kg more than pre preg weight. Really scared I'll gain fast for this one. I've been eating and sleeping. Very tired. And not as active. But I still feel tired especially after meal and will usually concuss. Very good for gaining weight. :X

Yes, I also think cuz it's expanding tts y we got the cramp. My work place is complicated, I usually stay very low.profile as news spread v fast. I have got 30 over.colleagues. I dun.wish to let e supervisors know.and.is too early.to let other colleagues know too. I still plan.to.inform only if I need to change my uniform when I'm 3mths. Even when I applied.for.My AL today I was being.asked.in detail where will.I be going.for tcu which I did not reveal much. My.colleagues.often.ask.me.to.climb up to cupboard.to get.things.for.them.As they r not.As.tall as me. For now I duno.how to reject.them. haix.my workload is heavy almost.daily and.I.need.to walk around almost.every second. I.hope.my.body.is strong.

There are many anti stretch mark creams out there but I stick to these. I love the scent of the Clarins as it is very calming but some people may not like its oiliness but i don't mind. This oil has many good reviews and I agree. If you're a cream person then the Mothercare one is good too.

I'm in wk 9 now and I've still been gg for zumba weekly. I feel fine and the recent visit scan also showed baby to be growing well. But 2 of my frens were v shocked and kept asking me to stop gg.. I think it depends on how comfortable u feel?
I'm gg holiday soon but I think I'll stop zumba when I'm back.. will switch to swimming which I think is good for pregnant ladies. My pregnant fren asked me to go for yoga but I really dun like yoga so no for me..
Hi,
My edd is 14 Jul. Third child. Nausea started at wk 5 which I thought was abnormally early, so felt very assured to see some other ladies going thru the same here: )
Kitty - I go to Prof Tan Hak Koon at sgh. He's good if you don't mind to-the-point consultations. For my first one, he used to tell me he won't give me details like the length / wt of the foetus as he knows us mummies, we will just go and compare and worry ourselves unnecessarily. Got used to his style in no time

My friend recommend me to use Bio Oil and Seba Med. I've been using them diligently ever since I found out I'm preg.
But since Bio Oil is oily.. it's good to use it at night instead of the day. I'll apply SebaMed when I go out in the day.
Apply on tummy, butt and thighs.
Some pple say applying such creams really work.. but others say it's really in ur genes whether u will have stretch marks or not. But just use la... I believe they shld be useful to some extent.

@JAPL just went for my scan. I'm 5w5d today even though I should be 6+w based on ovulation day. Saw a faint heartbeat. My edd is 31 July. Think there's a chance yours will be a Aug baby instead?
@yumsoup r u still looking for a female gynae? I went to dr wendy teo at mt e Novena today and find her v nice. She's not my gynae though.. my gynae is on leave and can only see me in end dec.. I find her friendlier and nicer than my gynae! Very smiley and speaks v well. Might consider changing to her...
@Benjazzy @l0v3s my doc told me swimming, walking and light climbing of stairs is fine but no yoga till after first trimester. And no running, no heavy weight lifting during pregnancy.
Ladies, when do u all start eating vitamin? My doc only asked me to continue eating folic acid. Nv prescribe me with DHA, calcium, multi vitamin etc like u all mentioned...

I need to find a stretchmark eraser....rather than something that prevents. I may use some oil like argan or apricot oil instead of the commercial ones.
Mine gave only calcium and folic acid

Mine asked me to continue with my current supply of folic acid too. I wasnt given any additional supplement but was told to see her in Week 10.

Hello Mummies / Mummy-2b,
Sorry to interrupt..
Just want to know if any of you have ever engaged Dr Suzanne Sulaiman as your gynae?
How was her service and what are her charges like? Or any other lady gynae recommended?

Hello mommies! I am a 2nd time mommy. Visited Dr Lawrence Ang as I thought he was quite good with stitches (he made a cut down there so that my boy could come out of me.) My EDD will be in early July. Am feeling very lethargic this time round and feel like dying at work all the time. Pls add me into the FB group so that we can monitor our pregnancies together! Thanks. [email protected] or [email protected]. Jia you, mommies! We are going to hit end of first trimester soon! =)

Congrats to more July mtbs.
@piggy_cheng Yeah you bet I'm so looking forward to end of 1st trime. MS is never fun.
@lov3s For me 8weeks now my MS is subsiding gradually. 5weeks was my worst. Have some small bites of crackers on and off throughout your day. Although it may help just a teeny bit, I think whatever we can do to minimize that bad feeling. I did tell my gynae back then about this and he introduced me to this pair of wrist bands that works on concept of pressure point (few fingers below your wrist). If you can't find the bands at pharmacy, you can press the points occasionally to ease the discomfort temporary.

@yecarg Oh that's really nasty. Hope you'll feel better soon in no time.

Hello Mommies to be, I'm new here, nice to meet you all .
I was missing my menses and decided to take a HPT and got a BFP on 30 Nov.
I used 2 different test kits (Watsons and Clearblue) and all shown positive and CB stated 2-3 weeks. The next day I decided to go and have a check up at my gynae.
He did a scan but was unable to detect the sac yet as it might be too early to be detected so was scheduled to go back two weeks later for another scan to confirm everything is right. Gynae says I should be at week 5 judging from the date I gave for my last menses.
Currently, am not experiencing much symptoms yet except for slight cramp at lower stomach.
Sometimes being too anxious may cause unnecessary worries? One week wait seems long...

Hello mummies.
I wanna ask anyone met this situation before?
I just went toilet and saw some brown brown upon cleaning. It is like u are coming your period in ur first day (not a lot).
Do I need to consult doctor asap?

I have the same concern... I have slight pink spotting last sat and slight brown spotting last sun. Then it stopped. And it started to spot again yday and today though it's light. How much spotting before we need to call the clinic or go see doctor?

I read that mild spotting is fairly common in first trime but it's not always normal. My gynae did tell me whatever spotting that I encounter, I must go in to see him immediately. So I feel it's better not to take any kind of spotting lightly. Best is consult your doc soon ya.
