Hi japepearl

Thank for the update.. but one little request... can put RT as RT's Wify.... because I not the one preg lor..... heeee.... wish I could, then my wify no need suffer so much.... she not feeling well today again... think vomitted, I read from the forum I think very common lor.... she took half day today..... lucky today I half day also, later can go back keep her company...

Thank you... and Happy CNY to All......
 


Oh yar, one think to share share..... our BB will be born in the year of the Dog.... I also born in the year of the doggy.... wah buy 4D also not so jun.... heeee
 
jazzyjas, i can understand the pulling sensations...according to books, it's cos the uterus is stretching to accommodate bb. i sure hope so!! ya, can "ren", best lor otherwise, eyes swollen and red leh. soft non-padding bra...errr...comfy but then cannot cover u-know-wat, right? did u buy extra padding?

fruitee, ya lor, take this cny as a break for you to have more rest
happy.gif
eat well too

hong, u're most welcome. more shopping time to come as we progress further into our pregnancies
happy.gif
 
Jazzyjas,

Yes, 9mois at Paragon is a maternity shop. Their clothings sometimes can be very nice, sometimes can be very aunty..... but their material quite good.

Fruitee,

9mois sells very sexy underwear for pregnant woman. Very comfy too. I bought 3 last time, bought another 2 yesterday. It really looks v ery comfy.... can go take a look?

Haiz... today is eve eve of New Year's day.... I really do not have the mood to work, rather, would prefer to go shopping....
 
fruitee, how's lunch? Did u rest & relax a bit?
happy.gif


missmoon, i hope so too.. bt sometimes these "pulling, uncomfy-ness" is kinda worrying.. esp at nite loh. My right eyes still have "tat sore rubbed feeling" now.
Eh.. the ones i bot cant add padding leh.. dun really know wat u meant bt i thk i bot "cup bigger"??

Angeline, oic.. if i go there, wd go check it out.
 
Angeline
Thanks for the info.. Will go check it out!
happy.gif


Jazzyjas
Did rest & relax abit but seems like after lunch, the pain came back... haiz... unbearable pain.. it's like my head going to explode liao..
 
jazzyjas, when is your next gynae appt? better ring clinic up and ask? i can't wait for my appt next wed...then can get gynae to explain everything in detail. may be a long visit, haha. i know which type of bra you're referring to. my sister passed me some of hers and she told me she bought paddings to add on to the cups cos without paddings, when cold, nipples stick out like sore thumbs. hehe

angeline, does 9mois sell nice bras huh? my last visit, i din see any nice under garments leh, just basic tube bra type.
 
fruitee, lunctime passed a while.. time for R & R, close ur eyes.. drink a cup of water.. destress..
dun concentrate on the pain or thk abt it.
My right eye oso itchy n a bit pain today, trying 2 "ren".

missmoon, the week after CNY loh. I checked a health website, said could be allergic, partly coz of the sneezing oso. Wd ask the gynae on my next visit.
erm.. the bra i bot have "padding".. bt not those removable kind lah.. tat's y 2 me like "no padding", hehe..
happy.gif
 
Hi Millie,
I just bought a 3/4 maternity pants today. Normally I wear S, but after putting on weight, I can now only fit in M. I did not buy L size cos it's too big for me. If your pants has elastic, then just c where is the biggest the pants can stretch. If it's a lot, then M should be fine already.
I bought my pants at Mom R Us at United Square. After 10% disc, only cost about $30+. Quite reasonable. Their jeans also in the range of $40+ only.
 
Hi missmoon,
I just checked wif my gynae today. He said the pulling sensation on the upper tummy might be due to muscle strain...nothing related to pregnancy at all..
 
I just visited my gynae today for routine checkup & to take the triple test (to check for down syndrome). I will get the test results on the next appt.

Based on my latest thyroid test report, my gynae advised me to increase the dosage of PTU from 50mg/day to 75mg/day. The tablets only come in 50mg, so I have to cut the tablets into half.

My gynae seems to be very experienced in scanning. He showed us the baby's spine, internal brain, heart valves, lungs & kidneys today.

I also managed to find out baby's gender today!! Doc told us it's a GAL!! He showed us the baby's private parts which is to be the virginal of the baby gal. I was surprised cos my intuition always tells me it's probably a boy. But both hubby & I are happy anyway as long as the baby is healthy.

Hi Japepearl,
Can update my particulars on the table? My baby's gender is confirmed a Gal.
Thx!
 
hi angeline
finally went to 9mois today. you are right abt their jeans being comfy. in fact like it so much that i decided to buy it after cny together with a white capri pants i saw as well. trying to forget that i am on a budget..
happy.gif


yb, looks like you are the only one here who know's bb gender. congrats on having a princess! i also feel that i might be carrying a boy but doc said could be girl cos cannot see the 'thing'. will have to wait for detailed scan next month to find out.
 
Hi Millie,

Thx!! I didn't go for the detailed scan. My doc simply do the normal ultrsound scan to check on the baby's gender. He scanned from bottom up so can very clearly see the baby's private parts.

Can also see my baby got very long legs..
 
Wishing all the gals here a Happy Chinese New Year! Gong xi gong xi...
May all of us deliver happy and healthy "doggie" babies!

Hi Yb,
Congrats to your princess..me went for scanning today..saw my baby moving about and swimming..doc also said mine should be 99% gal too..saw the "hamburger" look alike vagina..hehe
Can only 100% confirm next month liao..
By the way can i know why did u opt to take the triple tests? I thought NT test would be sufficient?
 
YB,
Oh look like u will have to spend more on bb. There is really many clothes to get for baby girl.
 
hi YB
wow, a girl
happy.gif
girls really do have more stuff, pretty stuff to doll up. happy shopping now
happy.gif


good to know that it's just muscle strain. did he say how one gets it though? my gynae has scheduled for a triple test when i see him on wed. wat is the triple test for and an NT test, do you know?
 
Hi missmoon,

My gynae said we'll get muscle strain if we over exert ourselves..mayb cos I was busy spring cleaning last few days..

Both triple test & NT scan is to detect down syndrome. Tripe test is a blood test while the NT Scan is just scanning & measuring of baby's neck.
 
Missmoon,

I don't think all maternity bras are nice actually. All of them looked so aunties.... no matter who is selling it. I'm basically not very well endowed anyway thus I also don't buy maternity bra. Just buy bigger sized is more than enough. heh heh heh.....

YB,

Congratulations! It's a gal gal! I so envy you.... hopefully next sat's check-up will show me a gal.... my hubby so hoped to have a gal now since the first is a boy already.

Millie....

Ha ha... happy for you that you have bought something. 9mois is such a sinful place right? I try my best not to go so often now, or else sooner or later, my hubby will have heart attack. 2 bottoms is ok la.... can last throughout the whole pregnancy.

Mel,

Congrats to you too... hm.... seems that now there are quite many girls hor? I'll twist my finger in hope now....
 
Hi All! Happy New Year!!
happy.gif

Had stomach flu on the 1st day of CNY. Mite be coz of the food i ate. On n off the next day bt now ok.

Have u all been to this shop called Spring @Suntec? Qte a wide range of maternity wear oso.
Only bot 1 3/4 & 1 pants ard $130 i thk, din know maternity wear is qte ex.

missmoon, i bot the camomile tea, Twinings @Carrefour, the only kind they have. R u planning 2 have the triple test? When u going 2 c the gynae? Me is next Mon.

Angeline, same like u.. hehe.. i bot normal bigger bras tat's all.
 
jazzyjas
i'm seeing gynae this afternoon. just went for blood test this morning, nurse told me it's HBTT, that should be the triple test thingy. was told results out in a week. keeping my fingers crossed.

angeline, jazzyjas
ya lor, maternity bras look very lao tu. hehee...i just bought one fr marks&spencers but haven't worn it yet. have stuck to buying bigger sizes normal bras.

m still wearing underwire. anyone still wearing underwire bras huh? i heard it's not good for preggie women leh.

yb, better take care
happy.gif
no more heavy housework liao.
 
Morning mtbs,

How is everyone CNY?

Jazz,
U ok now? Must be careful now.

Missmoon,
the result will be gd. Dun worry too much.

Angeline,
may be this rd is a girl?? hahahaha..
 
fruitee
congrats!!! a prince, huh!
happy.gif
you're the 2nd one so far to know sex of precious bb.

i hope i will find out bb's sex at today's appt
 
Missmoon,
think fruitee is the third who get to know the gender.

Ok we have 2 prince and a princess now.
 
Fruitee!!!

Congratulations.... it's so exciting to see the sex on the screen right? Really brings a smile to our face...... enjoy your pregnancy! Boys are a cheeky lot.....

Missmoon,

Ya, underwire is not so good cos as time goes by, our tummy gets bigger, and it presses against our breasts... and the wire will hurt the veins there..... try to buy normal bras without the underwires.... also for your future milk supply's sake....

Jazzyjas,

Heh heh, just like me hor.... actually, went to some overseas website and saw that their maternity bra looks so much nicer.... but very ex to buy leh...
 
Congrats to YB and Fruitee for having a baby gal and boy..

How's everyone? I did not really enjoy this year CNY cos still not feeling well on and off.. on the NY EVE got migraine headache and the pain so terrible.. in the end no choice hubby gave me one extra strong panadol to stop the pain.. then half an hour after taking the pill vomit everything out liao.. haiz.. yesterday dunno wht happen my gastric pain strike early in the morning and make me the whole day in pain and eat very little.. tot this time most of us should get better.. me jia lut lor..

Jus do a quick check, is mineral water safe for our baby? I've been drinking a lot during the first trimester cos office water supply not clean. How about extra strong panadol?
 
Somebody is pooling purchase of maternity wear from Maternity mall. Most of the clothes are nice and cheaper than what Singapore is offering.... can go take a look.
 
Joline,
Can u take extra strong panadol? I think normal strength is ok. Must check with gynae? else ask gynae to give u some medication suitable for ur headache.

Missmoon,
may be have to ask japepearl to put in down on the chart later.
 
missmoon, oic.. ur gynae asked u 2 take or u want 2 take? Coz for me, the gynae said its up 2 me. Me oso taking the complusory blood test next week.
Ur office is near 2 GlenE? Otherwise y r u making 2 trips today?

Tried 2 find the maternity bra @M&S Raffles City, they dun have leh, only have minimiser she said.

fruitee, wowww.. Congrates!!
happy.gif
Me getting excited oso. Hee.....

hong, am ok now. Bt at times after mealtimes, i wd feel gaseous & tummy uncomfy loh. Since preg, have been like tis on n off.

angeline, tat day i went 2 buy at robinsons, i thk the lady actually "looked me up & down" when i asked for "extra big size". Ha!!
 
Thanks Missmoon & Angeline
Guess hb pestered the gynae to let him know the gender before he flying off loh...
 
Hi Jazzyjas
Ya, I have dry, itchness and skin peeling on the face, neck, tummy and body. And after I change my skincare, my face is better. And my gynae has given me a cream for my neck and tummy. I haven't use it yet. I am trying Johnson & Johnson Body Lotion first.
 
Joline
me too had migraine headache for 2 weeks liao... the pain is unbearable loh.. Gynae advised not to take Extra strong panadol not good for bb.. Gynae gave me some panatab but doesnt help with the pain loh.. try 100-plus... although take a longer time to cure the pain but helps a little though... but try not to drink at night.. cos might not be able to sleep...

Thanks Jazzyjas!
happy.gif
 
jazzyjas, doc scheduled it for me, so i guess it's compulsory. hmm...as for making 2 trips...ya, i've been doing that since i've been seeing him. that's the arrangement the clinic has. last time, cos of hormones prob, he did blood test every few days to make sure progesterone and estrogen levels ok, so i've been making 2 trips down, morning for blood test so that by afternoon, results out when i see him for appt.

for me, my skin is especially dry and itchy around tummy and hip area leh. oh, maternity bra... it's available at m&s centrepoint, not raffles city
 
Jazz,
May be u try too avoid food that cause u gas. Food like cabbage, onion etc. See will that improve ur condition. Migraine, sorry i dun have any good solution.

Think someone asking abt underwired bra? I am still wearing it. Will feel more uncomfortable in the later stage. I agree with Angeline that maternity bra is very auntee, hahahaha but more comfortable then support bra.

Angeline,
any idea when the motherhood fair is coming?
I wanted to stock up Nepia NB diaper.
 
Fruitee,
oh.. then next visit i should ask my gynae to give me some pain killers for migraine headache liao.. hopefully i did not abosrb the full dose of extra strong panadol and cause any effect to baby..
 
Good morning ladies...

Everyone had a good CNY?

sorry to hear those who ahd migraine etc. take care hor.

----------------------------------------------

but since it is organising by mediacorp...
think will be very "commercialise"

prob will have alot of those slimming centres booth there!! hahaah.. :p
 
hong, i was the one who asked abt underwire bras. heheee...they give the support now lor, so i'm still using it. i will prob have to change to the auntie bras when bigger

i suffer from migraines quite often...and i find that avoiding spicy/heaty food helps cos these foods triggers migraines. also, dun look at computer or tv, avoid noisy places cos it gets worse under these conditions. sometimes sleeping it off helps. hope these tips help those who r suffering from migraine... since cannot take strong pain killer for it, can only try to minimise the pain.
 
missmoon,
Thnx for the tips.. hot weather sometimes does trigger my migraine problem..

By the way, do most MTBs here staying alone with hubby only? I always have this problem that I got no appetite to take outside food.. wonder most of you cook at home after work? So envy with those staying with parents/PIL that got no worries with 3 meals.. think because of my poor appetite that I did not put on weight so far..
 
joline, yes, and it's the brightness outside that will spark off the migraine too. i hope your condition will improve very soon.

i stay alone wif hubby only and we dun cook. we eat at either my parents' or in laws place but weekend we either cook or ta pao from outside. sometimes when i got no appetite, we will prepare dinner on our own. but definitely week nights we dun bother to cook cos by the time we finish work, it's late liao. is it becos of MS that your appetite is poor?
 
yup... i also dun hv home cook food...
only go back to my mom's place for dinner once a week.

we also lazy to cook on weekdays... have been eating alot of fast food home delivery. think i am the most unhealthy MTB!
sad.gif
 

Me also dun have home cook food.. me same as MTDT, went back mom's place once a week for dinner. Sometimes everyday ta pau until I also dun know what to eat liao..
