Meixue, there's really two way to look at it rgd detailed scan. Some who refuse to do it cos they believe they'll keep their bb no matter what but what abt thinking of it this way, we'll be able to help bb if we discover anything that needs fixing earlier?
If we hadn't gone for the scan, we would think that Kaden (name of my boy, meaning fighter), is well, cos I'm gaining weight, the bleeding has stopped.
Now, though docs say 100% he'll not make it, we convinced them to try the experimental method of extracting the fluid using needle, though a lim chance, we know we try.

Natalie, SusanY,
I am also having this cramp feeling (very painful!!) somewhere near my private area, thigh and buttock. Can't really describe where exactly the pain comes from. And it only occurs at the right side. Read from the report of my detailed scan, my placenta is implanted on the right-sided wall of the uterus. So was wondering is that why the pain is on the right side.
I have to be on slow-motion mode whenever I get up from bed, sofa and also taking off and wearing my shorts. And at times, I limped or walk with legs open big big. LOL!
I just hope the pain will not get too intense as my tummy grows. Sigh...
Has anyone started to get leg cramps? I got my first dose on Wednesday night. Hubby "jumped" up upon hearing my shrieks.

I areadi had leg cramps occasionally.. n hubby would help by massaging it to ease d pain n asking me to relax.. tis few days when hubby not ard n d leg cramps occur (usually when i'm slping at nite) i will try to straighten my leg n relax n move my feet up n down n d pain will b gone.. but of coz nt as gd as having hubby to massage away d pain.. hee..
Meixue - my gynae didn't said it's an optional to go for detailed scan, she just asked me to go, it's her nurse who told me it's an optional, I can't opt not to go for it .. as I've skipped the Triple Test, so I went for this detailed scan but it's with another clinic.
Ju, like you, my cramp is on my right thigh/buttock ... i started to have this when I was at 10th week, I think .. until now ..
I really hope I will not get any leg cramps at night lah ..

Hey ladies,
Dont take cold drinks/stuff when having cramps. I think it helps. Actually I never take cold stuff/drinks ever since I know I'm pregnant. No cramps for me so far except when getting up the bed suddenly when I forgot I'm pregnant
Meixue, my doc asked us to go for it as std normal procedure. He didnt really ask whether we want or not but since it's non-invasive and like what coral said good to help the bb early if required, we just go for it.

Hi Ladies,
The leg cramps are from a lack of calcium. My gynae asked me if I was having them during my last visit. She said she will give me some calcium pills if I were, but I was not. Just take more milk / milk products - low fat preferably. Or you can supplement with some calcium pills.
For me, the issue is backache. Not very bad - but everytime I get off the bed, I have to be very careful..and I try to make sure that I sit properly as well. On good days, it is ok.
We are all like old women now!!
Nonetheless, TGIF!! Another weekend..haha.

Hi Aprilpinky
Thanks for your invitation. I would not be able to make it for the meeting this time. Enjoy!
Hi Meixue
I had my detailed scan at 21st Week. Mine is included in the package which I paid from 5th month onwards. Other than this, there will be another 32 week scan for baby's growth. It is all in the package.
Like what other ladies described, my doc. measured the leg and hand bones, head's diameter, spine, the amount of blood flow to the baby. The 4 chambers of the heart, the kidney, weight of bb etc... whole process took about half an hour to 40 mins. Then she will let us know whether they are in the normal range.
So I am quite surprise that your detailed scan is not in the package. I thought this is the standard procedure?

Hi Coral
Glad to hear that both you and your husband are hanging on to your belief. I think this should be the way and definitely encouraging. We all believe that there will be miracles and even if we are given the slightest chance, we should not give up! kanbate (Jia you)!

Hi ladies,
I do have backaches since my working days. Most of my colleagues have it too. Now, my backackes got even worst. Tat day i went facial, i feel so uncomfortable lying on their couch. My backaches is those 'shuan' pain, I think i dare not go to facial for the time being.
As for leg cramp, i used to have leg cramp many years back. Now, preggie haven't 'strike ' yet. But i picked up the habbit of covering my legs wif blankets. Since then, my leg cramp doesn't 'strike' anymore.

Hi all mums
Looking through the postings on the Bikini and Brazillian wax brings back some interesting stuff I encountered when I daringly went for the 'botak' aka brazillian look.
The first time I had mine done at STRIP @ Wheelock which is at the 3rd or 4th floor located near a cafe (sorry can't recall the name of the cafe at the moment)it was a rather awkward moment as no one had such a bird's eye view of my private area.
The lady's cheerful disposition and compassion towards a 'first-timer' was really a relief. Before going for the wax, just ensure that the area is well cleaned... and try not to take too much spicy food lest certain gases from certain orifixes escapes while she's clearing the landing strip.
The lady will apply some lotion on the private area and ask what kind of style u want. It seems that at Strip, it's cheaper to go for the full brazillian wax than those with designed tufts as it's more 'challenging' to style.
Afterwhich, she dips a bigger version of the ice cream stick into the peach-coloured warm wax. It might feel a little tender when she uses the muslin cloths on the warm wax to remove the hair esp if you are going for the daring botak style and she needs to prise open the inner area so as to clean all the hair out. Also, for the full botak-brazillian wax, some form of contortion and leg twisting is necc since she needs to remove the hair near the inner part of the butt as well...hmm
The saving grace for me was although it seemed a little funny not having any bush, it felt very much refreshed and clean. And there are sprays to use to reduce the growth though it takes a few more botak sessions in order to be fuzz-free longer as by then the hair roots are used to being attacked and regrowth is slower.
Lesson learnt was that for the first timer, it will be best to try out the less infringing styles before experimenting with the daring bald look though most husbands would appreciate the pain...
Hope I didn't provide too much graphic details to scare anyone... it's def worth a try and worth the pain but.. maybe start by keeping a strip or mohawk look instead of going the full monty..
Good luck girls!

Meixue,
It's a routine scan in SGH for Wk 18-22. Perhaps your doctor has a reason for not getting it done for you, trust the doctor lor!

Sexxy,
Could your swollen ankles be from water retention? My friend had water retention starting from 2nd trimester!
Petrified of getting water retention... not mentioning the discomfort... I'm scared of getting BIG NOSE! hehe...

Thanks for all the well wishes. How I wish I could be posting good news. But the scan last night show that the fluid is accumulating in Kaden's chest again. And I almost blackout again this morning. Not sure how much longer we can hang on, but we're trying our best to drag on for as long as we can.
Enjoy your outing ladies.

Was reading abt your dilemma abt the detailed scanning and thot I'll share what I found out. I was asking my colleague. Her gynae didnt ask her to do any tests (N/T scan, triple test, detailed scanning). Reason being he says shes under 30, so its not necessary as shes considered low risk. He will only ask his patients to go for tests when he feels theyre high risk or it is necessary.
For myself, my gynae asked me to go for triple test even though my N/T scan results were good. I asked the nurse and she says that its his standard procedure to offer all patients to go for the test, of course, he wont force us. I was also very stressed for a few days whether or not to do the triple test as it has high false positive rates, then, what for stress ourselves, right. So, now Ive decided not to go for it. So, the final decision is up to you. If you want to do it, then just tell him loh. I guess diff gynaes have diff school of thoughts. Maybe your gynae is like my colleagues who finds it unnecessary for his patients to do so many tests. Waste money and expose the body to more scanning. For the majority of gynaes, maybe they offer it, but I see it as them ensuring that they have discharged their professional duties. Hope it helps.

I admire your courage a lot. It takes a lot to be this strong. Stay strong. you and Kaden will be in our prayers.

hi all mtb,
just came in this thread, and would like to know does any of you heard or experience that baby open eyes during scan?
during my last scan , her eyes was open and doctor still joking and said "see..she is looking at you" so during that moment i just surprise to saw the big round eyes and did not ask him anything since he sound so normal. only when i told my mum about it, she said never heard of this b4, so a bit worry.
anyone can help me?? anyway my EDD is 25 nov
thanks

Adel,
We can still meet outside the delifrance. it's near Simply Thai and a japanese restaurant. From Cityhall Mrt just walked along the citylink all the way shd be able to c delifrance. Then we will proceed to go to Pacific Cafe from there. See u tomorrow.
Jilline,
Hubby said our bb one eye open one eye close (winking) cuz the ultrasound film one eye is black one eye is white. I didnt see him blinking though. Was too excited when saw him moving. hehe.
No need to worry abt such things. I read from a book "what to expect when u r expecting" 6th month 23-27 weeks. It says bb's eyes can now open and close and even react to light. He or she may even use his or her hands to shield his or her eyes if a v bright light is shone at the mother's belly. hehehe.

Hi krissie and all the other gals, thanks for your advice regarding the detailed scan. I think my gynae is like the one mentioned in krissie's colleague's case. He finds that there is no need for me to do detailed scan as his machine is sensitive enough to pick up quite a lot of things and everything appears very normal. So I've decided not to do it.
Coral, I admire your strength. Hang in there and fight together with your boy. take care.

April, thank you for sharing your experience on the 'botak-waxing', he he he ..
I've asked gynae today and she said that she will not do any SHAVING for her patients. As for M'sia, the gynae will still do the shaving at the birth canal area.
She didn't tell me about the glucose test but warned me about my weight (gained 3 kg this month), BB is now at 678gm @ 24th week. Altogether I've gained about 10kg so far, really worried me .. shall cut down on my carbo intake now.
Sexxy, so sorry to hear about your pain during the roadshow, didn't your colleague/boss refrain you from standing for so long ...
Jilline, u're so lucky..can see your Ah Girl's eyes looking at you .. I believe and agreed with Aprilpinky that BB's eyes can be opened & responded to lights (read one of the articles today about this).
Meixue, glad to know that u've cleared your worries.
Nik, i tot 3rd tri will start in the 28th week?

Sexxy, maybe warm water will do lah. No need to get foot soak from watson's lah. Is ur ankle any better tis few days?
Ladies, how's the outing? Must be quite enjoyable.
I do heard tat 3rd trimester is the shortest. But i juz dun remember which week it starts. Now i noe already. Ladies, agar agar in 8 weeks times, we all in our 3rd trimester soon!!! Can't wait hor.
I start buying some stuff for bbs liao. Mostly feeding bottles, teats n a sterilizer. Wow, bb's stuff really quite ex hor. I do not have much bb's clothing yet. Regret tat time i working, i should get more. Cos it really cheap in other countries. Dun wan to get too much also, cos bbs out-grow the clothes very fast too.
