    MTB - first child : any gentle MALE gynae?

    I highly recommend Dr adrian. His stitch work is very good ( my c section scar is hardly visible :)) He doesn't speak much but is very patient in adressing any questions u have..plus, he has been doing this for many years so you'll be in good hands if hes your gynae.

    Nausea and Vomiting in Pregnancy

    Hi firstimepapa, I did not have severe vomitting and nausea like your wife during my pregnancy. However, have you tried to discuss the above with her gynae? I feel he/she may be in a better position to advice.
