Hi gals,
just came back from my gynae visit. I am now in my 8wks6days and bb is 2.3cm
Still need to be on MC for likely another week or so before i can get back to work.
When i asked gynae about indisgestion, MS etc.. he said the worst it is the better your pregnacy becos means hormone changing very fast. So here's one piece of reassuring news for those who have bad MS.

thanks shane & cherry for assuring.
i hope the MS to end soon because i can't hang in and out of the office washroom whole day. Meanwhile, i took milo (without milk) to help replenish my share of water and hunger, but can see my digest system is slowly accepting food.
my mil is telling me a lot of stories on other pregnant women she knows without MS; which is starting to irritate me, i guessed the theory is that their body can adapt faster to hormone changes or already adapted to the changes.

Hi Gals
Feeling terrible now....I just vomited before my lunch....becoz i was too hungry...anyone of you had such experience b4?
I was thinking to do NT Scan & not Triple Blood Test....coz i think Triple test is less acurate and I am afriad it might give me unnessary stress. Read from article that false positive results is quite high for Triple Test....

my colleague bought me some packaged ginger, ate some every now and then, feels better, maybe you can try. me still scared of drinking plain water, that's why i turn to plain milo instead, still puke, but at least lesser now, but always feel hungry after throwing out, so, i always pop into one or two biscuit after coming back from the washroom.

Hi everyone,
I'm just back from 2 days MC. It has been like a roller-coaster for me. On Tuesday, I started my morning sickness. I started vomiting water/saliva out from my throat. And I was running a fever. Went to see GP and he prescribed me some medication. Slept for more than 12 hours for each of the last 2 days. Then my MS stopped yesterday morning. But still feeling groggy, tired and feverish. In the evening, I started spotting. And I dont have any other pregnancy symptoms except for my sore boobs and my aching calves. I was panic-stricken. I thought it was gonna be m/c. Called my gynae and arranged to meet this morning. Baby was doing ok, measuring 13mm @ 7w3d. Apparently, the spotting was due to stale blood in my cervix. I feel so blessed today. May God bless all of you too!

dreamydove,
amnio has a % of miscarriage ley. must think carefully. amnio is normally done when test results from the NT scan and blood test shows a +result.
Lisa,
Glad to hear everything is ok. I'm sure u had a bad scare. Gd that U've seen your gynae and everything is alrite. You take care and have more rest ok.

dreamydove,
I don't think i'll be doing the amnio. I think the scan and blood test would suffice for me to know the risk.
Shane,
Thanks. Feeling really groggy in front of PC now. Anyway, today Dr Watt did a cervical examination. I was so not prepared for it and I was tensed... hee

Shane,
Im trying to avoid any unnecessary medication, whenever possible. And Ive not taken any medication for the spotting coz it stopped already. Hopefully I can stay off any medication as much as I can. Afraid that there might be any effect on the baby hee By the way, I think my appetite has improved and I begin to eat more than I did for the last few weeks without feeling wanting to puke after that. I think my real morning sickness has lasted only for the 2 days that I was on MC. Yippee!
Hope everyone else is coping well too! God Bless!

Jane,
Me too! Me too! I'm constantly feeling cold and shivers easily ever since I got pregnant. But I do notice though that my body is relatively warm but cannot take cold weather and air-con too much. I'm always wearing my shawl/jacket whenever I'm in office. Even taking a stroll at night makes me feel very cold. Wierd huh?

Just in case anyone need to replenish their folic acid supply. I just go mine from guardian. It's exactly the same as what my gynae gave me - folic acid, 5mg. Cost me $2.75 for 50 pills. so cheap !
The clinic sure earn alot from their medication man ... I was charged like $25 for folic acid (30pills) and duphaston (i think 20-30pills). So expensive !

Hi Lisa,
I was thinking of the same thing. Had my breakfast at 10am just now but now feeling abit queasy. sigh. just ate sweet to take away the feeling. Now also no appetite. sigh.
I may eat rice. I feel that's the easiest to eat. but normally can't finish.
At the rate i'm going, i really hope baby is hvg enuf nutrition. last nite went to bed hungry but didn't bother to eat, cos don't feel like. sigh.

milly,
ya, birdnest is ma fun to prepare. But those bottled ones got any preservatives ?
since so ex, better slowly eat hee hee ..
oh u have a dog as well ? wat dog is it ? My dogs are still with me. And they'll be with me all the way cos no one will want to look after them for us hee hee... we still love our dogs very much and i play with them everyday. I still carry my dogs and clean their toilet. But of cos hubby has been doing slightly more eversince i preggie hee hee... but he loves them as well, so i think it's ok.
can understand how u feel. i'll be sad too. I love to see my dogs after a hard day work. they will welcome me home and that feels very gd.
actually there's no medical evidence to say dogs are not gd for preggies or babies. Infact, kids who grow up with dogs, have a stronger immune system. I can't wait for my baby to arrive and grow up so that he/she can play with my dogs as well. I think it will be fun to watch. hee hee ...
