But to be honest some days I forget my supplements.. but I Keep up with folic acid no matter what
Is fish oil necessary? My doc says no need take too much supplements
I heard about it too. That's why never touch spicy stuff as well for my 1st preg. But my bb always shout loudly at times if things don't go her way. A bit of temper though. So I think still can take but not avoiding it totally.
Dear Andtheniammum,
Thanks for your advise, I will need to plan and think abit. I haven't posted for a while and so many new posts to read! I just went for my Panorama test yesterday. They took 5 tubes of blood in all. 3 big tubes and 2 smaller tubes. I chatted with the nurse to distract myself. Luckily she had the skill and it wasn't painful. Phew. Just counting down to know the results.
Every morning I have a challenge of swallowing the huge fish oil capsule. It just gets stuck in the throat and refuses to go down, make me gagging in the process. How did you all manage to conquer this?
Yes, mine also like this. At times want the thing can shout or cry until top of the voice.I heard about it too. That's why never touch spicy stuff as well for my 1st preg.

Hey bro! Looks like we are on the same boat. The doctor was recommended to me by a friend whose also a doctor at NUH. My doctor is a consultant, if i had went with a senior consultant it would be another 100+ extra if im not wrong.
I chose NUH because its really near my place and research seems to suggest they are in fact one of the most recommended. In any case my wife has decided today that shes sticking with our doctor cos shes super nice and patient which is a bonus when my wife doesnt speak english too well.
just created a private group.. (realized a lot of baby expo vendors are creating mummies edd group). but i prefer a private group instead. see if you mummies can join? else can pm me and i can add in facebook.

Omg is this true?I understand from my friends that even if it is a private group, Facebook will still suggest to your friends (who have joined similar mummy groups) to join and indicated that you are in the group. Haha I havent announced to my friends yet so I will join after first trimester k!
Haha oh no, is this really true? I have been eating Ma La, Tom Yum, Curries, Balachan... you name it.I love to eat spicy too like tom yam, curry and laska. But heard eat spicy child next time will become bad temper is this true? My 1st pregnancy i did that and my 1st child a bit hot temper kind. Current pregnancy i try to reduce but never cut.
If i crave for salad what do I lack of haha? So far this pregnancy my ms so far so good but that's also make me worry.Haha oh no, is this really true? I have been eating Ma La, Tom Yum, Curries, Balachan... you name it.
I read that if you crave spicy food it could be your immune system is lower than normal and your body is instinctively craving foods that help it. If you crave chocolate, you could have a lack of magnesium.
hmm i created as a secret group. you will not be able to search for itOmg is this true?
yes.. eat with moderation is ok in small quantitybtw, can we eat batang fish? is it consider mercury food?
not true.. i ate bee hoon soto extra chilli for my first pregnancy. ate it every lunch time. my #1 is the most gentle little boy i've seenI love to eat spicy too like tom yam, curry and laska. But heard eat spicy child next time will become bad temper is this true? My 1st pregnancy i did that and my 1st child a bit hot temper kind. Current pregnancy i try to reduce but never cut.
You are in good hands with NUH. The midwives there are pretty experiences. Nurse are pretty kind and they are pro breast feeding.

I having the same problem as you. My #1 was Dr Wong really good and my delivery was so smooth. Now i am thinking of kkh as i might need insulin and scare cost high if i continue. But kkh and Dr Wong visit Really great difference.Hi guys.. im about 7 weeks along and due in early may with #3 but i usually go into labour much earlier, ard 37-38 weeks so I'll be hovering around both april and may groups
My gynae for both #1 & #2 was Dr Wong HF at tampines TMC. Best gynae ever but i may not be going back to him.... my hubs recently joined the civil service and can only claim if i give birth at gov hospital . But have no idea how to about getting a gynae at kkh. Any advise?
What kind of difference are you referring to? Waiting times or procedure...? I love how dr wong scans at every visit and explain every scan detail patiently....really not keen to go anywhere else.. .I having the same problem as you.

kkh. Scan at one place then the machine very blurr can't see well. After that see doctor another place then got to wait some time then if doctor got the machine also very very blurr. Take medicine another place and draw blood or take weight another place. Then if any emergency is go to their 24hrs. Unlike my first #1 with Dr Wong i got bleed at night then call Dr Wong and ask me faster see him at his clinic. Immediately attend to us and at least is Dr Wong. If kkh go to emergency will be attended by MO. So these are the differences.What kind of difference are you referring to? Waiting times or procedure...?

Hi Everyone,
My ETD is 1st week of April 2018.
I have been very stress and cannot stop worry even I am week 12 now.
I have been doing bedrest for about 2mths already. Having serious constipation and need medi in order to release bowel. Always bloated and feeling uncomfortable. Any little cramp or pulling or tighten feel At tummy I will start to feel nervous. Always in panic mood. Everyday there is action at tummy. I can't tell whether is it normal or due to bloated gas or constipation.
No appetite too.
I know I need to relax and remain calm for the sake of BB. I have been trying very hard but not easy.
I have not share my pregnancy news with my friends. There is no one to chat with when I started to feel panic and full of worry. Feel like crying sometimes.
Praying for smooth and healthy journey.
If anyone wants a list, this is what I found. These Fish Are the Highest (and Lowest) in Mercuryyes.. eat with moderation is ok in small quantity

I think out of all the problems we have, it's having to learn how to stay calm through every new thing, symptom, news that happens.JellyNova thank you for the support.
Yes, I went for check up every week since I am pregnant. Every US is good.
Dr knew I am stress over this pregnancy due to some history reason. She has been encouraging me too.
My hubby and in laws trying hard to take care of me too. Just that I don't them to worry too much so I didn't tell them whenever I feel unhappy or worry. Have been trying to watch drama to divert my brain. But sometime brain just out of my control.
Need to start walking bit by bit.. going back to work soon.
Dr did prescribe supplements. Just found out from urine test there is infection so on antibiotic now. And they are sending for further test just to make sure.
Hopefully my appetite will be back soon.

You can try some guided meditation - find on youtube. It will be helpful because you will have a healthy coping mechanism to keep calm in a panic situation.
And do your walking exercises at home, that way if you get too stressed or tired can just lie down and take a break.
Good luck and feel better soon.
Hi there, I am new here. Would like to find out from you ladies what supplements did your gynae prescribe?
My gynae only suggested new obimin for me. Am I taking enough? Rather worried about the developments. My scan is scheduled next week.
Thanks!
I am already reaching 12 weeks. Was told that 4mg folic acid is too much. He told me to just take the obimin. Hope my baby is fineMy gynae prescribed multivitamins for me. Throughout the first trimester, it's good to take folic acid.

Thanks! How many weeks are you in?Folic acid is effective for the 1st 3 months only, and then start multivitamins starting from 2nd semester onwards. Don't worry, if doc scan is good, then it is fine.

Into 9 weeks now. My nausea has improved slightly, really hope 1st trimester will pass soon. No prob and jiayou too.
same here.. really hope 1st trim quickly pass. my nausea start at 6weeks and now get more n more nausea and can be afternoon and evening too. Tmr will be 8weeks. Still hv a long way...still got 2weeks to my next appt. wonder how is bb doing liao.. Haha
@Jillie, I take fish oil after meal. Think throat will be dry in the morning before food.
My nausea starts when I am starting to get hungry. Think better eat small portions even though before hunger sets in. Usually by 10 weeks you will get a more accurate edd.
It seems ages to get to 2nd semester at times.. lol..
