Oh, forgot to add this: U can consider going to Guardian Pharmacy and buy this Seabands which u can wear around your wrists to relieve your morning sickness. What it does is that there is this button on the underside of the band that presses on your acupoint, thus relieving the nausea. Simply ask the pharmacist for them as they are stored as with the prescibed medications. They costs $12.95 a pair. Hope this helps!

It helps for me at least. I din know about this for my previous 2 pregnancies. When I read about it online, I just went to try my luck at the Guardian and bingo! They sell it locally and it has made a difference for this pregnancy. It is a widely used product internationally for MS and seasickness. I read that it works for most pple and I thot that I will give it a try since I am already in such misery. If 13 bucks can help to make my life a bit easier for a couple of weeks, it is worth it. I can't say it works for everybody but I think there is no harm in trying.

Hi! I just found I am pregnant again with my second baby. 5 weeks so still can't see the heartbeat yet though so still a little nervous till I actually see it!
Eve: I know what you mean about clothes getting tight even so early. Me too, unlike my first pregancy when I could squeeze into all my normal clothes till 3 months I think.Dunno whether its just bloating

Hi hi
Deborah: ya, thk our skin 'loosen' after 1st birth. My skirt all move so high now
Thk have to go and dig out my maternity bottoms to wear already, sigh.... Thk last time, I only start wearing them after 3 mths.
I feel my nauseanous seems to be worse than last round, though i cant clearly remember it 4 yrs ago, maybe too long and i am old liao And this time it starts very early for me also, abt 4-5 wks. I guess 1st trimester is the worse, so pray hard it will pass soon.
This time i cannot puke out, only the feeling thru out the day. Btw, wearing the band got any side effects?

hi m&m,
at this stage , we will all ways and methods to make us feel better, like eat small meals, drink ginger tea etc...
as long something makes us feel better , we will be great. I drink the longgan/ginger/red date drink which Little nana recommend, it works for me while drinking it real hot.

Hi Ivy,
Haha, maybe my MS starts pretty late. I am down with bad MS since Week 8.
Worse still, i heard one of my colleagues, also pregnant (in her 20th week), say if we vomit very badly, most likely we will continue to vomit till delivery. So my colleague, even in her second trimester, was still vomiting like hell

Hi little nana,
I cook for weekends but ever since I'm pregnant, I reduce cooking.. The MS caused me no appetite so.. no cooking..
Like yesterday, I was thinking of cooking chicken stew for dinner. However, got headache and fell asleep..end up DH went to pack duck rice for dinner.. I pity him, cos he like home-cooked meals...

Hi all,
I am also MTB in May, my EDD is 11/5/2006. Glad to find that I am not the only one who is feeling so xinku with the nausea and bloatedness. But I will "ren" all these for the sake of the baby cos' it's a much awaited and prayed for pregnancy. I was very fortunate to be successful on my first cycle of Clomid in fact. To all the mums-to-be in May, hang in there, a few weeks more and we will enter into the second trimester and should feel better (I hope)

Hi ladies, can I join in this thread?
Thing is, I never tracked period nor intercourse dates, have absolutely no idea about ovulation...
, but tested positive on Clearblue (digital- is it reliable? Very newfangled gadget leh) on Oct 1.
2 wks b4 I tested negative on same gadget (it comes with disposable test strips, but digital reading is on same "holder").
From what I googled, I *think* it means I'm only 2-3wks along, too early for even vaginal scan so I'm delaying a trip to Gynae. No point going GP cos they use urine strip test only too.
I have no MS whatsoever. Last pregnancy (darling daughter is almost 1 yr liao!) also no MS, also tested very early- I recall that time gynae cldn't v-scan anything and asked me to go back 2 wks later.

Hi Medusa
Congrats.. Clearblue digital quite accurate leh... I do agree with u lor No point gng to gynae rite now.. Even if u go.. they'll do urine test which is equivalent to ur clearblue tes.. hehe (save cost) Personally i feels tt only go to gynae at 8wks.. where u can see ur bb's heartbeat and growth... Eg.. my sis went on her sixth wk, gynae said bb seems to be not growing, gave her jab, den she started to get worried.. I jus feel tt no point lor... go so early and get scared by GYNAE words.. hehehe tt's my personal feelings la..

Hi everyone,
I would like to join this new family. I'm a new MTB, 6 wk preggie. However based on LMP, I should be in 7 wk, so now can't determine my EDD. My gynae advised it's more accurate to determine in wk 8. Now, I feel tired very easily, on average, I need 9hrs of sleep
Hope to catch up with all of you soon.

Hi Little Nana
Good afternoon ! Yah, can imagine hunting for chinese food in London. I was there last May, one pack of fried noodle is hard to get. I grabbed one at Oxford Street (I think) cost 4pound (about S$12). Alternatively, you can ask your family to send some PrimaDeli premix (eg. Mee Siam, Hainanese Chicken Rice etc). I heard it is easy to prepare, can try it during weekend

Hi Little Nana
I went there to join my hubby last year. It's a short trip, rest & relax, got a chance to spend whole day at British Museum. It's 2nd time to London, most of tourist attractions were covered during our honeymoon.
My hubby said that there is an authentic SG restaurant near Kensington Park. Alternatively, look for Qwek Leng Beng's hotel (I think it's called Royal Palace), there's a restaurant which serves authentic Malaysian food ... so you should be able to get CharKwayTeow there ... I asked him where to find Lor Mee, he said it's difficult becos of its unique tastes ...
