Hi gals,
My friend says normally gynae will only start to prescribe calcium tablets at 2nd trimester. Cos that's when the fetus absorb more calcium from our body. If we take calcium supplements too early & fetus do not absorb, we'll have too much deposits in our body.
Hi littlebaby-Val,
Welcome!! You have the same edd as mine!! I presume you are about 9 weeks preggy already?? How r u feeling now??

Zita,
Dun worry too much! Some women go through healthy pregnancies with no MS at all. The pregnancy hormones surge at week 8-10. Maybe after that the body gets use to it and MS improves.

littlebaby~Val - yup, we have to ren a little more! As long as our little is OK, I am sure the "ren-ing" is bearable
Poppy - its better to be on MC and ensure that your little one is OK than working and worrying, right? Hang in there and take care!

Dear: 20 Jul 06
Here's something about Cancer Babies:
21 June - 22 July
A Cancer child can be independent from a young age, often playing alone for hours, often inventing invisible playmates. Cancer babies are fascinated by colours and pictures, and they love the different tastes of delicious foods and drinks. Cancer children need to be hugged and loved and they thrive when encouraged. A Cancer baby will change moods frequently and will withdraw themselves if they suffer any kind of rejection. Young Cancer children are quite capable of using tears to get what he/she wants and Cancer babies have a reputation for crying a lot.
However, Cancerians are delightful and fascinating children whose changing moods are shown on their faces. They are imaginative and will thrive when given a lot of warmth and attention. Your Cancer child will be easy to manage and discipline and will be well-mannered. Most Cancerians prefer to be the leader rather than to follow.
When raising a Cancer child you will need to give constant reassurance when he/she is fearful, which is likely to be often. These children are very sensitive to emotional hurts and rejections and will need your support to ensure that they do not feel unloved. The danger is that they may withdraw into themselves for self-protection.
You should encourage your child to express emotions in poetry, painting, music, acting or any other creative activity. Parents will need to find a compromise between being too firm and spoiling your child.

Hi
Sorry to intrude...but can anyone advise me on the following?
I understand that different people may experience different symptoms at different point in time. Some symptoms may include, abdominal pain, darkening of aerola, lotiony white discharge, etc.
Can I have a rough feel of from mommies and mommies-to-be: What kind of symptoms do you have? When do you first notice the symptoms, immediately or a few days or a week or 2 weeks after conception / ovulation?
For those who are taking the BBT: Is there an extraordinary sharp surge in BBT immediately or a few days or a week or 2 weeks after conception / ovulation? Is the surge a sharp curve or a gradual curve?
Just like to find out more...thanks

WOW the thread move fast today.
Japepearl,
thanks.. will update tmr after my appt.
U very cute, go and search for the cancer bb character.
YB,
the gynae i am going it Dr Lawrence Ang. He got his own clinic at Sembawang which is too far for me so i am seeing him at TMC tmr morning. Heard he will go TMC to see patients who doesnt want to travel to sembawang. Hopefully TMC doesnt have a long Q.
U know we can claim out anatal-package from CPF too? I think Max is $450? got to check again.
So end up will pay lesser cash, urs may be lesser too.
I laughed at the "rental fee".
dear,
My hubby bday also July and he is so happy that the 2nd child will be at the same month as him.
A frd told me cancer baby is gd cos very homely person. Quite true as my hubby is one very homely guy.
I heard DR Sim is gd too.
TMC and Mt A shld be gd and cheap. My sister delivered in TMC. I delivered my elder one in Mt E. Pretty ex compare to the rest of the peers.

Hi Pugglie,
Before I know I was pregnant, I experienced on & off pain/cramps in my lower abdominal. Soon after, my breasts starts to become sore.
