(2006/07) JULY 2006 MTB

Hi Angeline,

I had pains in my abdomen a couple of weeks too. SOmetimes it even felt like menstrual cramps. My gynae says its normal. The book says its due to the expansion of uterus and the pull in our ligaments.

Jurong Gal,

me too, experience itchy boobs and tummy , sometimes all over my body. My gynae says it could be due to dryness. She said its normal. I think to my gynae, everthing is normal.

Anyone here used to cocoa butter from bodyshop?? I went to BNS yesterday but they said they only have it it stick form It looks more like a deodorant tube to me and its not creamy kind. Is that the one for stretch marks?
 


angeline, just a thought, has gynae done vaginal swab for you? i also had that constant pain in that area and suddenly it stopped. i thought it must've been some infection or UTI as MTDT mentioned.
 
Hi~~
Been MIA for quite some time. Lot of postings to read..

May,
I'm using cocoa butter from bodyshop from my 1st pregnancy till now. Not in stick form. It's bottle packing in brown and it's creamy kind of lotion. U can ask the sales person from body shop and sure they will show u.
 
mtdt & missmoon, thot UTI wd be pain urination, unusual dischrg etc... abs pain oso 1 of the symptons??

missmoon, wat is a vaginal swab? Pap smear?
 
jazzyjas - not really...

i also had some constant pain/uncomfy. so went to check with gynae. gynae check my urine test, and said tat i hv UTI.
sad.gif


out of so many symptons:

61 Pain, discomfort, or burning when urinating (and possibly during sexual intercourse)

61 Pelvic discomfort or lower abdominal pain (often just above the pubic bone)

61 A frequent or uncontrollable urge to pee, even when there's very little urine in the bladder

61 Foul-smelling urine

61 Cloudy urine

61 Blood in the urine (usually hard to see with the naked eye)

i only experience

61 Pelvic discomfort or lower abdominal pain (often just above the pubic bone)

61 A frequent urge to pee
 
jazzyjas, that are just some of the symptoms. pain around the pelvic/lower abdominal area also one of them. i have these on and off, and sometimes when i go and pee, flow very slow. dunno if this is a symptom or not.

i was told by the nurses at gynae's that it's a common procedure to do HVS (vaginal swab, something like pap smear) to check for infections etc. and that this is usually done at 2nd tri. i just did mine yesterday.
 
oh, forgot to add that if discharge has a foul smell or very yellowish/greenish, that is a symptom of an infection as well.
 
may:
i m using the cocoa butter from tbs. i didnt buy the stick form, bought the tub form cos i prefer tub. smells yummy too. the staff told me gd for stretch mark.
 
Jurong gal,

How come your symptoms always so similar to mine...from 1st trimester till now..

My breast one day duno itchy how man times....to stop the itch, a apply AVENT stretchmark cream after shower...
Dont scratch hor..later got scars and may cos skin around nipple to break ...
By the way did u take the triple test??
You also having galgal like me right???

At first both of us still thought its a boy..hehe

I already wearing maternity capri pants to work now.. (from spring) very comfortable...

Have you felt your baby's first kick??
 
mtdt, i din know tat there r so many symptons.

missmoon, asked the gynae if urine sample can chk has infection, he said no. If i feel anythg different, i must tell the nurse & they do the appropriate test. Gynae din mention anythg abt HVS.
 
think urine check for gluose and protein in urine.

if there is an increase in protein in urine, it might mean UTI. (for mine case)

so my gynae also did vaginal swab for me to test too.
 
Jurong gal,
You are not alone, I'm itching everywhere! I think my skin is becoming so dry, that's one possible reason, so I must try to apply cream. Thanks Mel, I didn't know can apply cream on breast too.

Angeline,
I also experienced a certain sharp pain on my left lower tummy at about 5th week, happen to see my gynea and he did a scan, and told me everything was ok, it's prob the expansion of uterus in preparation of our body for the baby. Best is to tell your gynea and have a scan.
 
mtdt, guess goto wait for the urine test 2 come back then. M/o, next visit is in March. My abs pain is on the upper abs. Hopefully its nothing.
 
May,

I am also using the cocoa butter from Body Shop, the one in a tub form. Then I went on to buy a stretch mark prevention cream, think the brand is Mustela. Dunno which is better, so I use them on alternate days. But the cocoa butter definetely smells much more yummy....
 
hi Mel,

we both suffering in the same boat, haha. So the Avent stretchmark cream helps to ease the breast's itch ? where to get it ? I went to Kiddy Palace yest nite, dun rem seein it there.

Yar, i took the blood test last week, not sure whether its known as triple test though, the nurse place my blood sample into 3 separate bottles and took urine sample as well, and my gynae say will check for most of the usual tings like thalesammia, HIV,rubella etc and DS.

Yep , im having a gal gal, these few midnites my HB has been cracking his brains for bb name, so sleepy at work now....

I feel some movement like growling feeling or some slight water movement at times, not exactly a strong definite kick, how about u ? Shd be feeling better nowadays since we now in 2nd tri rite ?

Interesting --- I was asked by the gynae to do UTI test at 13 weeks. Based on the package info the nurse gave me, think will have to do the vaginal swap sometime later also. Yah, also gets on/off lower abdominal pains (esp during the evening), I just brush it off as uterus growing to accomodate bb.

Stretchmark creams -- there is great controversay on its efficacy. Personally, I don't really believe it works but still uses it to keep the skin moisturized and prevent itchiness. Bought it from the gynae's clinic (some French brand Perculafa or something like that). Lumped together with the rest of the medical bill and then get reimbursement as part of company's medical benefits (since it is categorized as "medicine")

hello,

YB - I guess you have experienced a growth sprut in the 2nd trimester.
happy.gif
I guess you are pretty petite!

RT - Glad to hear that everything is A-OK!
happy.gif
Congrats in getting a prince!
happy.gif
Did you enjoy watching your boy-boy on the screen? My DH sure did!!!

Angeline - *hugs* about the sharp pains! Hope that it has gone away now. If you need to re-assure yourself that everything is OK, then maybe you can call for an appt before next Sat?

NOIF - Hi there and welcome back!
happy.gif


missmoon - Thanks for the info about CM!
happy.gif
Can this be detected when the OBGYN do the urine test?

Mel - lol, I guess most of us will experience some itchness. I have not offically gotten my first baby kick but flutterings...that I have felt. Anyway, I heard that it also depends on the individual...if very slim with flat tummy, can feel faster. So, me...a little rounded at the tummy area...I guess it would be slower for me lor.
sad.gif


MTDT - *hugs* So sorry to hear that you have UTI. What did your OBGYN advice you to do? Any medicine to take? Yup, that's what my OBGYN said too about the urine test which all PG women have to do each time we go for our appt.

jazzyjas - Me get slight pains at my lower left
of my abdomen now and then. Like the rest, I take it as "expansion of uterus".
happy.gif


jurong girl - When will you get the results? Good luck! Wah, so fast already thinking of names...so, anything in mind yet?
happy.gif


Lok - No matter what the SM cream does/doesn't do, I still prefer to apply it so that my skin is not that dry and itchy.
happy.gif


Sandy - *hugs* So sorry to hear about your headache! Rest more, ok?
happy.gif
As for the "to tell or not to tell" thingy, I guess its up to you. Good luck!
happy.gif


eeyore - I experience leg cramps most nites.
sad.gif
So, DH often massage lor. Thanks for the tip about wearing socks!
 
Hi eeyore,

From my first BB experience, the leg cramp will start abt 16 weeks onward, mainly due to coldness. Was adviced to wear long pant &amp; sock to sleep at nite to prevent cramp. Also rem when u experience cramp, dun pull like usual muscle cramp which we have after excerise, it may lead to those ugly green vein on the calf..hope it help
 
Hi Jurong gal,

I got my Avent Stretchmark cream from Kiddy Palace leh..i think costs about S$29.00..Ya i feel my breast not so itchy after applying..in fact the directions on the cream did indicate we can apply on breast. I have started applying since 2mths..

Not sure is my stomach skin too thick or what...i cant feel my baby moving..only can feel her strong heartbeat..and if i move about too vigourously, i feel pain on my abdomen area..worse i have to run toilet very very frequently..always feeling very high tide.

You have signed up for Mt A parentcraft class right?

I didnt take the triple test leh..how come u take thought u are only 24 or 25 years old?

Ya my appetite has improved and less morn sickness...but still feeling burpy when hungry ..sometimes i can wake up 5am and cant fall asleep already...

Have you started buying baby items? Me not yet as i seriously do not know what to buy and what is necessary..such as the breast pump..seems like so many types ..

Have you decided to go for how many bedder?
 
morning everyone!

japepearl, i think the usual urine test at gynae (test on strip upon reaching clinic one, right?) is to test for protein and sugar in urine. i dun think they test for anything else leh, thus the HVS that is routinely performed for preggie women 16 weeks and above.
 
Mel,
How's the Avent Stretchmark cream smell like? nicer that TBS cocoa butter smell? i want to get something good with nice smell so that hubby will enjoy when applying the cream for me. Do you apply once or twice a day? Is it applicable to the whole body? Issit oily?

I think I should be the last to experience baby kick since my EDD is the last.. haha.. crossing my fingers for my bb's first greet to me..

me too experience the pain on my abs often especially at night. the cramp not very serious but very disturbing.

I'm still visit toilet very often, at least 3 times every night. Had been stopped from taking fluid after 6pm for sometimes but it doesn't improve leh..

Me too dunno what to get first for baby.. hubby wanted gynae to confirm bb is alright after detailed scan then start buying bb stuff..

still feeling bodyache at night and get worst when it rains.. office air-con very cold that during pm my body ache will come normally.. these days I also bring extra pair of socks to put on in the office.
 
HI MTBS,
how is everyone doing?

Joline,
Avent stretchmark cream smell good.

Mel,
I posted a list here. U can use it as a preference.

Look like we have 5 boys vs 4 girls now.

Mummies,
Have u all started looking up name for ur child?
 
morning ladies...

for stretchmark cream, i am using palmers one.
can be bought at guadian pham.
happy.gif

not bad too...

shopping - me too not a single item!
 
HI missmoon,
My urine test is same as yours using the strip and once nurse see the color can throw away..

Joline,

I find the smell of Avent cream quite pleasant..not so sure if its nicer than TBS cocoa butter ..i use it 2 times in a day after morn shower and evening shower...apply to stomach and itchy breast...actually it can be applied to the whole body ..so far i have been using it since 2mths..no complains from me..

U can get it from Kiddy Palace.
By the way Joline i am also experiencing frequent toilet trips in the day &amp; night..its horrible i need to climb up to level 2 for toilets..!


Hong, thanks i have printed out your helpful list..

My stomach already 33 inches!!!

Lately, i find some pain when getting up from the toilet bowl..hahaha..not only that..if sitted for too long..my actions now must SLOW down liao..
 
japepearl, me at times oso pain at the lower left or right abs on n off. Ard pelvic there oso.. tol my gynae the area, he said its coz of uterus expanding or coz of strain if its the pelvic area.
Ya.. like u.. i took his reasoning. Now oso a bit at the lower left side.

missmoon, i have only used the urine strip once.. asked the gynae, he said from now on wd be urine sample.
Btw, have u feel bb kicking? I still dun have.. gynae said gv it another 2 or 3 weeks.

joline &amp; mtdt, i have not bought any for bb yet either. Guess wd do so in the 3rd tri.
happy.gif


hong, i am fine, except a little pain at the left lower abs on n off since last nite. We have not look up on bb's name yet as still dunno bb's gender.
 
I dun know shld i announce the gender of my baby now. hmmmm althot Dr Ang said he is 80% sure now.
OK lah.. I am having a boy this time.

that goes 6 boys vs 4 girls

Joline,
RB got sale may able to get 20 discount for Avent cream.

If urs a girl will be 6 B vs 5 G. hahaha..

Thanks for showing me the website.. very useful!
We have chosen a name for the baby, will call him "Julius" which mean "Youthful".

So concidently that both my child are both in January and July. Both of them have a "J" so decided Julius for 2nd one. So now i have Janelle and Julius.

Chinese name will get a feng shui shi to name him.

Mel,
I dun dare to measure stomach.. hahhaa..
I used to have pain at my right hip. A frd told me it was due to my lose of calcium. So now i took 1 glass of anmum milk before i sleep and my condition is better now.

Jazz, will be fun looking up name for the baby.
U hope for a boy or girl? got any instinct?
 
mel, ya lor, that's the standard procedure for every visit now although gynae visit is now monthly. so long as strip dun change colour, we're fine
happy.gif


jazzyjas, i dunno if wat i've felt is bb kicking leh. sometimes i feel slight movement in the lower abdomen (where doc usually scans) and sometimes on the side. cannot tell the difference lor so i hope it's really bb moving. ya, for first time mtbs, they say most likely can feel bb kicking from wk 18 onwards.

i also haven't done any bb shopping. most likely i will inherit all the stuff from my sister. except if i am having a gal gal, then got to do some shopping.
 
Mel,

I signed up for Mt A Parentcraft starting 6th April, how about u ? did u sign up for the same day too ?

Im also not too sure whether im just taking the blood test or triple test ley, since doc says so then i just follow lor though im at low risk lar,me cumin to 24 this june, how about u ?
happy.gif


Went look look see see the baby and mummy items, as u said, there's a wide assortment, also quite at a loss, didnt get anyting yet, most prob will ask ard all mummies and only buy the essentials cos there's really many items !

Aiyoh my tummy now 34 inches when measured 2 nites ago liao,im becoming a fat preggie liao
sad.gif
 
Mel, juronggal,
i think taka is selling cheaper when they have the 20% disc for Avent products.. can go chk it out..

hong,
congrats on having a BB boy
happy.gif


jadepearl, jazzyjas,
me also feel pain on both right and left abs..
guess its the uterus expansion and BB growing..

mel,
me too have to really be slow in my actions now..seems to get a lot of pain if my actions are too big..

btw any mummies out there planning to get a confinement nanny or have already booked for one?
 
Hong,
Congrats on having a baby Boy!

Monday just done my blood test. My gynae did not ask me do NT scan or Oscar test. He just mention me below 35 years old no need do amnio test. Just blood test and details scan will do.

Mummies,
Talking about baby movement, this pregnancy i felt the baby movement pretty early. Suprising i felt it at 12 weeks plus when do spring cleaning at home. My 1st prenancy I can only felt the baby movement on 16 weeks.
 
Hong,
Congrats, one girl &amp; one boy coming..happy family

Hi Juronggal,
I have not booked but the course hubby can attend right? we pay $126 per couple or per person?

Most probably i will be attending ..first time mummy mah..

Juronggal,
do u want to exchange email address?


I am born year 1980.
By the way have anyone heard or seen a table which shows mummy's age &amp; month, and u will be able to predict or plan what sex your baby will be?

I have got that from my sister in law and according to them it is very accurate..
I checked up my chinese age &amp; month concieved, its really a GAL that i am expecting..

Anyway i just went Robinsons and take a look at baby products..wow so many diff brands &amp; items ...seriously do not know what to buy..

Hong,
do u recommend disposable breast pads or washable breast pads? Seems like there are 2 types ..
 
Mel - Glad to hear that your appetite has improved &amp; less MS!
happy.gif
Haven't bought BB's things either...but has started a list of things to buy though.

missmoon - yup, the one strip urine test thingy! Haven't done any HVS yet leh?
uhoh.gif


Joline - Good luck with the appt! Hope your BB co-operate!
happy.gif
Thanks for the website!

Hong - Nope, haven't thought of any names for BB. Your choice of names are awesome!
happy.gif
Can recommend a good feng shui shi fu please?

Mel - At least don't get leg cramps when sit too long on the toilet bowl like me.
sad.gif


jazzyjass - I guess we just have to take it as it is - uterus expanding or strain. My obgyn said that as long as no spotting, no worries.
happy.gif


tracy - yup, guess that's what it is!
wink.gif
Not getting a confinement lady...MIL is doing it for me!

***

BTW, anyone got any good post natal massage lady or good feng shui shi fu to recommend?
 
hong, boy or gal is ok for us.
happy.gif
No instinct leh.. hehe.

tracy, tat's wat my gynae says when i asked him. I juz listen 2 wat he said. Planning 2 get a confinement lady bt have not start searching yet.

missmoon, actually if its slight movement i cant really tell. Last nite woke up coughing, end up abs qte pain.
Btw, my gynae gave me a med for flu, qte gd loh. Dunno its coz the med or i am getting used 2 the bouts of flu, felt better.

fruitee, how r u doing?
happy.gif
 
japepearl, hmmm, that's strange leh. maybe he doesn't think it's nec? not sure also but maybe u can call the clinic and check wif nurses?

jazzyjas, good to know you're feeling better liao. can understand the pain when coughing or sneezing. now i'm scared of both, so hv been v careful not to fall sick ;p
 
Hi Mel,
Yes i heard of the table n actually alot of tables can be found on the websites. But then got different version one, not sure which one is accurate.
U know my MIL based on her own table, n predict it wil be a boy. But i m hving a gal. Not accurate leh. What table ur SIL is holding?

Or do u all believe hving boy or girl is based on genes?
 
Hi Kite,

Not sure leh..but i see my own age &amp; mth conceived is a gal..and i am expecting a gal..
The table looks like a mathematics time table ..column and rows split into woman's age &amp; the month conceived..

whats ur chinese age last yr and which mth u conceived? i can go back and check the table to9 see if its accurate..

But my own interpretation is that if your period is regular and if u know when is ur fertile period, if u make love b4 your fertile period, mostly its a girl cos boy sperm dies much faster then girl sperm, so by the time the egg is released, there will only be girl sperm left to fertilise the egg.

But if u make love DURING your fertile period meaning ovary has already release egg, then chances of boy is higher or should i say equally have a 50% of girl or boy, see girl or boy sperm swim faster..

My period is very regular 28 days cycle , and i did make love just a few days b4 my fertile period and now i am having a gal leh.

Haha not sure if you believe.but sounds logical right..and it is a fact that girl sperm lives longer than boy sperm!!
 
missmoon &amp; japepearl, i have not done the HVS either. Mon i went, i din even do the urine strip.. juz urine sample only. Said from now on it wd be urine sample not strip. I not sure leh..
uhoh.gif
Said the strip tat time "were coz i have some problems..", he din elaborate &amp; i din ask either. Since he said ok then i ok.

missmoon, ya loh.. i oso scared of fall sick nowadays, qte straining.
 
Mel:
Some tables are of english n some r chinese version, make me blur cos dunno use english/chinese age and chinese/english conception mth.

my chinese age last yr was 29. mth conceived is Oct (english) 05. so age u using chinese n mth of conception u using eng or chinese?

eh actually my menses is okie, can say regular? Anyway these r my previous mths where my menses is as i got record. considered regular? in this case, mine consider how many days cycle? how to count exactly?
17 May 05
16 Jun 05
July (forgotten)
17 Aug 05
13 Sep 05

that time i expected my next menses in oct to be due about 13 Oct but never come as we did it before that. i suspect its first wk of Oct, thus got pregnant. it seems to be on 8 Oct leh, which is already after ovulation date, which means it wil be a gal rite? aiya me blur blur cos 1st pregnancy.

i didnt plan for this 1st pregnancy, therefore not to say gender. u? i told hubby, if plan one, we can zoom into all these details, wil use it for 2nd bb.
happy.gif
hehe

ya boy sperm (Y) is a good swimmer but dont live long while (X) girl is lousy swimminer but live longer.
 
hi mel,

I tried to PM u my email add but cant, perhaps u got to change ur settings ?

hi eeyore,

so happy that i will have company for the parentcraft . See u on 6th April !
happy.gif
 
Hi All,

Couple of days not here liao. Hmmm very very active.

Kite,

You have an interesting theory of the possibility of boys or girls being conceived. Y sperms are better swimmer? Thought they are equally good swimmers leh..... now with your theory, I understand more liao. Heh heh.....

Jazzyjas,

Take care. Stay positive and all illness keeps away from you!!

Mel,

I can practically feel your joy through the message you left here. Stay happy!!!

Jadepearl,

For bb's name, I got 2 person to recommend. There's this 'Tie ban shen shuan'. Heard that he's very good in giving names, but price high. Another one is 'you long zi'... I went to him last time for my boy, and found not bad la..... you still have a way to go before going to them.... best to ask for names after giving birth.... cos they need the birth day and time.

NOIF,

It's so early that you felt the movement.... Is this one more active or less?

Jurong Gal,

Don't fret about figure first ok? After giving birth be more hardworking in slimming down. Now, just enjoy and bask in the glow of pregnancy! It's a short short 40 weeks!

Hong!!

Congrats for your bb boy!!! You have the 'hao' word now. A girl and a boy! I also have thought of the name for my kids... both with J.... Joeson, and Joean....... Hrm.... tomorrow is judgement day for me, so I x my fingers now, hope the Joean name has a owner.....

Joline,

Let's keep each other updated of the result tomorrow ok? My appt is at 12pm.... but I will go earlier.... cos, I'm really nervous now.
 
Kite,

I will check for you to9 using the table..btw, do u know the sex of ur baby now?
As the menses date, can see quite regular ..u every mth got come right? urs also maciam like 28 days plus minus cycle...i am alittle confused about ur ovulation date.. anyway check the table for u to9..when will u know u baby's sex?

Juronggal,
I just changed the settings u try again or want to leave ur email i can email u.
Hey u say me..i tried to pm you also u dun accept private msg...ok u pm me
 
kite, i am also quite confused by your ovulation/last menses date. I have the same EDD as you --- which means date of conception should theoretically be relatively close. The usual way gynae calculate the due date is 40 weeks from last menses period (LMP). If you are due on 20 July like me, then LMP should be 13 Oct. If u missed Oct menses, shouldn't u be due in June??

jazzjas, we have the same EDD and similarly, haven't felt my little prince kicking yet. Or I just dunno how to tell yet. Ok, shall give him another 2-3 weeks..
 
Angeline:
no wor, actually i m learning how to calculate n understand of all this cos me stil blur as i didnt plan for anything. Me also finding Shifu to give my bb's name as i find that chinese names is very important. but hv to wait after birth ah? got those no need wait after birth one? wondering how much does e 2 person charge separately?

okie take ur time to check. Yes i just went for my detailed scan on monday n it is girl girl. hehe i like girl girl cos can accompany me go shopping n help me do hsework. hehe. u? hving girl or boy? 1st pregnancy too? yes i everymth got come menses just that i forget when is the date of menses for July 05. how to count that mine is 28 days +/- ?? what u mean? me not sure how to count leh. very sotong one. ....but my cycle seems to be 31 days cycle that y my EDD is 1 July 06?? Conception is around 1st wk of Oct (8 Oct 05 maybe cos its a sat, wkends more free) lol. ...But i didnt take note of my ovulation date leh, so i dont know wor. how to calculate?
ya actually shld take my LMP n calculate my EDD but gynac use my LMP to estimate but then bb's measurement doesnt tally..... so gynac concluded my conception 1st wk of Oct and EDD 1 july 06.

aiya e more i type e more blur......

Lok:
Dr. Yvonne Chan said that my EDD is 1 July 06 and she estimate conception date is on 1st wk of Oct.
The 1st day of my last menses was 13 Sep 05. Actually at first she also count from my LMP to determine my EDD but bb's measurement seems not tally. Then she based on my bb's measurement n concluded that my conception is 1st wk of Oct 05 n EDD is 1 july 06. hope i m not confusing. aiya...

Okie take for my example that my conceived date is on 8 Oct 05. The following wk is counted as 2 wks pregnancy liao. then if u keep counting til today, i m correct in my 19 wks......hope u understand wat i m talking. hehe

hehe if i join the list in the thread, i will be the first one to head as my EDD is 1 July 06. lol. but alot of ppl said usually 1st pregnancy wil be slightly early, so i predict mine wil be in June instead

Yalo! Felt the baby movement so early.

Ehhhhh! Found this one move active and greedy cos the baby kicking me every morning, afternoon and evening before meal time. Think the baby hungry inside and rush me to eat. haha! At times will feel not comfortable cos the kicking pretty hard now. Think the baby growing bigger liao!
