    MOTHER-IN-LAW PROBLEMS

    I don't think so... cos that time I was always around when my mum was taking care of my nephew (I had several months off before I delivered) and she really followed step by step in all the babysitting method even when my sil wasn't around. Even till today, my nephew is 26 months and can self...

    I see, it could be because of your age that's why the gynae suggested panaroma. Both Panaroma and Oscar tests carry zero miscarriage risks. Which clinic are you with at TMC? I'm with Dr WK Tan at WC Cheng and associates clinic. :) I think the most important thing is to have a gynae you are...

    What your gynae describes sounds like the panaroma test, which is 99% accurate. Harmony test is also very similar to panaroma test, different laboratories I think. The cost can range from 900+ to 2000 dollars, depending on where you go. The Oscar test is the cheapest and least accurate (90%...

    Yes it's just a scan and blood test. The scan might take a while as they have to take different measurements. Is your toddler quite good with sitting down for at least 15 mins or so while you're lying down for the scan? Sometimes the baby might not be in a good position and they might ask you to...

    Hmm it's like something rolling or poking from the inside. Because the baby is still small, I think I probably felt the baby turning rather than kicking.. It's my second so i suppose I'm more sensitive with the feeling. If you don't feel hungry after the stomach rumbling, it could be the baby...

    Year 2016 IVF Mummy To-Be

    Dental xrays are safe during pregnancy and so is local anaesthesia. I had the same issue and concerns when I had number one so I did a lot of research and asked gynaes, radiologists... It's safe for pregnancy. The only thing is they recommend u to do during tri 2 because lying on your back for...

    Advice on hiring helper - to go for experienced or brand new?

    Hi everyone, I'm currently pregnant with no.2 and we will be moving to a bigger place before no.2 comes out. As the house would be too much for me to manage with a newborn and a toddler, we are thinking of getting a helper to help out with the household chores and occasionally looking after the...

    Yes, I'm getting the smaller one because our bed is also queen sized and my 18mo is already on the mattress on the floor.... :) I'll let you know if it works... it should reach me soon. Left side because it helps in blood flow to the baby and womb, so midwives and doctors usually recommend...
