Hi Missmoon,
Thanks, hopefully i can get some nice clothings from 9mois. I heard their designs are quite modern and nice, is that true?
Hi Missmoon & Fuitee,
Me too, i felt most uncomfortable when it comes to late afternoon and will get worse at nite, bloated and nausea.... May i know where can i buy the carmomile tea? Thinking of getting some to ease the uncomfy feeling....

Hi Missmoon & Fruitee,

Do u all have difficulties going 2 sleep?
Does the constipation gets better? Have drank lotsa water bt not working.

thanks, jazzyjas. my bloatedness starts fr after lunch onwards...so uncomfortable by the time i reach dinner time but still hv good appetite despite that. hehe. like you, i also dun like the taste, so i cannot bring myself to drink it
i also have difficulty falling asleep. worse still when i finally fall alseep and have to wake up to go pee. then cannot fall back to sleep already. sometimes nose and throat itchy at night also.
talk abt constipation...it seems to get worse now? esp since i started the vitamins supplements. me too, drink lots of water but doesn't help. had to go A&E once to get help. but since i drank prune juice everyday now, it's been getting a little bit better.

missmoon,
BH is a feeling of tightening of the uterus for abt 30-60sec. it is painless, so call Brexton hick. They said is to prepare the body to practice contraction and get ready during actual labour. Usually this will happen during middle to last stage of pregnancy. But I do experencing this twice for about few secs, don't know anyone of u feel that too.

i feel that when i wake up in the morning leh. dunno wat that was and when it went away, i just didn't think much of it. i felt it at 11 wks onwards, on and off. i wonder if it is the same thing? the tightening sensation is somewhat similar to cramping but without the pain, yes?

Anyone here already starting to experience leg cramp? My wife would have leg cramps easily at night nowadays. At the same time, those got little red veins showing up nowdays. Anyone can give advice on how to relieve the leg cramps and how to make those viens go away?
fruitee
yes, nose more sensitive these days, sometimes sneeze for no reason. wah, must really try the chamomile tea...i wish for a good nite's rest every nite
jazzyjas
ya! i have to pee at least 2-3 times. at start of first tri, i went 4-5 times! not enough zzzzz. i also dun like prune juice but no choice, have to force it down. otherwise suffer worse constipation
how many weeks along r u now? my gynae started me on those supplements at wk 12.
liverpool11, i read somewhere can massage legs gently before going to sleep and maybe can try to eleviate feet whenever seated down?...hope that will help to eleviate the cramping. does the gynae check for these at each visit? i also read somewhere those veins won't go away during pregnancy but will slowly go away after birth cos right now, the weight is heavy on the legs, that's why got these veins showing.

Hi Liverpool,
Ya, try to elevate your wife's leg whenever she's seated. When she's sleeping, put a pillow or 2 for her to elevate her legs. It will ease the cramping part, though not totally eliminate......
Hi Geberra,
9mois indeed offer very nice and trendy clothes. There's one dress now which is very beach look. Very very nice..... however, the price is as nice..... very high.
Breakouts on face!!!
Any mummies can help me? I am having terrible breakouts on my face. Now full of acne and pimples! It's so ugly!!! Chinese New Year is coming and my face is destroyed..... anybody experiencing this? I heard from others it's hormones changes... I hate it.....

Hi Angeline,
no choice leh, expensive also gotta buy cos i dont wanna buy those "aunty aunty" maternity wear. Looks awful and not appropriate to wear to work...
Anyone here knows if Osh Kosh Bgosh sells maternity wear? Am thinking of getting those jumper type...
Btw, i just bought a magazine from "Today's Parents" and wanna share with all MTBs here. They have a yearly edition called "Pregnancy and Babycare Guide Vol.7". Found it quite useful and it's published in Singapore. It talks about 1st trimester to the 3rd trimester than to delivery and the first few months after birth... Can be found in Kinokuniya book stores...

Hi japepearl,
Tks for ur concern but I have not heard from my gynae regarding the blood tests and NT scan. It's been a week.
Do u gals test for HIV too in ur blood test? My gynae said it is now made compulsory.
Btw, how much weight how u put on?? I have put on 1.5 kg and my gynae said it's a healthy increase. But my sister was screaming at me for eating so little!
Did u gals check out yesterday's Straits Times' Urban issue? It's all about mummies!! Go read it.

May,
Please maintain this increase. It's very healthy and it will be very beneficial to you after you give birth. As long as you take in the right food. I support you!
Gebbera,
I sam thoughts as you. I don't wanna become a frumpy preggie thus I did spend almost $1000+ on maternity wear last time. Luckily, it still able to support me for this pregnancy..... About the jumper, I saw it at IMM.... third floor. Don't think Osh Kosh selling it. Guess what, that was what I was looking for last time!!!!
POOHY!!!,
Different symptom lei. Not the same lei. how how how? Yours baby girl right? Confirmed liao right?
Hong,
For my first, I was radiant and my skin became finer..... Ppl were praising me on how much prettier I looked when I'm pregnant. Now, everybody just stared at me in shock! How? Your symptom same as before?

Angeline,
same as u, my skin became finer and radiant. My beautician said my skin condition turn better and i am carrying a gal.
This time also leh. She also commented my skin is better but i dun know the gender yet. Many pple guessed i shld have boy this time.
U go facial? I think is pretty relax for me.
May,
I lost weight leh. Dun know why and i am still eating 4 meals each day, stime 5 meals if i feel hungry before sleeping and i lost 1.6kg. Opp of u. If u gain 1kg every month then will be on the right track.
Gebbera,
I am also looking for maternity jumper. Another mummy from other thread passed me 5 pair of thyme pants. So grateful to her, so now i only need to get some news office, casual tops and some dresses for a few wedding to attend will do.
Millie,
Sorry suppose to show u the tops i got from city plaza.. give me sometime i go and take pic and show u.
Have any MTBs try out city plaza? I realised their maternity wear are quite unique in the sense that if u find one at one shop u can never find a similar one at the other shop. So dun bother to go and compare the price. If u saw one u like, bargain a bit and just grabbed it.

Hi shining and missmoon,
I'm not sure whether I'm experiencing Braxton's Hicks, but I did encounter cramping feeling at the lower abdomen. It doesn't last for 30-60secs. It's very quick ones... sometimes just one sharp cramp and that's it. It happens once or twice every week since 10 wks. Can happen anytime, lying down or sitting up... but never when walking. Anyone encounter this before? This is freaking me out... hopefully the BB's fine.
Hi Angeline,
I also have outbreaks! Even though I don't eat much oily stuff now but they just kept coming. Even have pimples on my scalp! For me, drinking more water helps and I've resorted to use my hubby's facial wash that's for oily skin. My usual facial wash is not POWER enough liao.

Hi Angeline,

Think no choice loh... gotta put aside an amt for maternity wear... not forgotting lingeries too, cos need to wear bigger sizes for comfortness.... I'm only worried that i'm not able to get smaller size maternity wear... those boutiques that i went to seems to cater for medium size and above...
Hi Hong,

hi jazzyjas
same here. after pee, i drink a few sips of water. end up going to toilet next round and still pee a lot?! ya, dream a lot too, and quite vivid those dreams. i read from a book that it's normal for pregnant women to have very vivid dreams...they also cannot explain why but some say it's due to sub-conscious anxiety and worry? i do take a lot of fruits and veggies plus drink lots of water. now beginning to have water retention and i'm just 13 wks.

Hi missmoon,
So far I've only been to gynae once only. That's during my 7th week. Now into 12th week liao and will be having my next visit on the coming Mon =)
How abt you?
Hi Jazzyjas and missmoon,
I'll wake up 2-3 times per night and I have the same habit of drinking water after peeing. Although I also tried to just take a small sip of water just so that I don't feel thirsty, but the next time I pee, the amount of water that comes out is so much more than I drank! Amazing!
I dreamt quite a lot when my hubby's overseas. With him around now I felt more secure, so less dreams liao. Heehee, I found that holding his hand while sleeping helps =)

Hi Angeline,
Ah? Cannot eat fatty food lah. Now we also cannot do much exercise, they'll just get stored and it'll be so difficult to remove the excess fats later on!
Hi all,
Oh! Did any of you read the article about eating placenta in yesterday's newspaper? It's supposed to be good for skin and overall health. Watched a lot of such placenta eating on discovery channel but not for humans leh! SCARY!

Hi ladies,
Any of you experience dry skin, but have breakouts as well? I also don't know why, my skin starts peeling at the chin, and no amount of moisturiser helps.
And does prune juice really helps to solve constipation? I have very bad constipation. I used to eat lots of papaya before I pregnant, but have to avoid it now, as it contains vitamin A. Which brand of prune juice is good? How much must I drink per day, and when is the best hour to drink?

cannot eat papaya during this time? oh no, i've been taking it almost every other day.
prune juice is known to help in constipation. you can try the sunraysia brand, not so sweet compared to the del monte one. maybe start off wif half glass first? and see your body's reaction to it and adjust accordingly. or perhaps check wif your gynae wat else u can take to help wif constipation.

Jasline,
If you don't like the taste of prune juice you can mix it with some orange juice, that's what i usually do, taste like sour plum. My hb is american so he bought me Sunsweet, american brand.
About the papaya thing i heard it can cause MC, but i still eat every now and then, shouldn't be any problem as long as it's not excessive.

Hi ladies,
for those with constipation, why dun u try taking dried fruits like apricots? It's good also. Carrefour at Suntec sells sugar-free dried fruits like raisins, apricotss and they are gd snacks. FOr me, I have the habit of eating fruits on an empty stomach in the morning so my bowel movement has been ok. BUt dun try this if u have not used to it.
wow u gals have started shopping for maternity clothes? I only bought one simple skirt with elastic band (very plain) from Spring maternity and it costs 55 dollars!! I think these pple make gd money selling maternity clothes and if only i know how to make dresses..............
