@hippo78 oh sorry to hear your bad exp...for me i changed 3 gynaes before and she was the most supportive and encouraging of the 3..so i guess i'm happy with her

gd morning all! TGIF! is it normal i don't seem to have any side effect from utrogestan? i am taking 2 tabs twice a day...the only thing i encountered is no appetite...maybe i am paranoid coz gynae say baby small... for MS, u can try sucking lemon..i did that for #1 and it is helpful. @yallo...

@jean1986 she is not the cheapest...her consultation for recurring (coz i am with her for some time so i can't rmb the first time charge) is $70, ultrasound $60, routine test $10 and supplements/medication depends on need. her package starts from 20 weeks @ $800 but excludes special...

if any of u looking for a caring gynae (i had two MC previously and my #1 delivered by her), i recommend Dr Kang Wee @ Mt A...very nice and patient gynae meanwhile we all have to relax and keep telling ourselves that our baby is well! i am reminding myself everyday too...

@jj_jj i know hcg and progesterone different but it seems that if hcg low u need more progesterone to keep baby safe? at least that seems to be my understanding from my gynae who prescribe the utrogestan to me...maybe i misinterpret...haha

thanks @hippo78..ya trying to stay positive coz got 2 bad MC exp so abit concern too.. @appleseed ya i know what u mean, but we have to try to stay positive and don't worry so much...nothing much we can do in first trimester...just try not to carry too heavy.. my gynae told me to stop carrying...

@hippo78 my gynae says my hcg is v low...and enough hormone level is required for baby to grow healthily..so i am put on full dose of utrogestan and will see her again in 2 weeks...praying for everything to be ok! she says in 2 weeks (based on LMP i should be 9 weeks by then) she should be able...

@mandy_ng i also get cramps now and then...u can all your gynae to ask but they will ask u these things (any sharp pain, is it persistent, any bleeding...if any of the above and u don't feel good then go see them or go A&E) hope it helps! try drinking peppermint tea..it works for me :)

my stretch marks are so bad for #1 i'm not going to bother much for #2...yea i think it is genetic...i applied diligently daily for #1...but doesnt seem to help! both my mum and sis have bad stretch marks too... but doesn't bother me to much...hahaaa...signs i am a mum! :)

what is the difference between Utrogestan and Duphaston? my gynae gave me Duphaston last time
