embarrassed.gif


liverpool11, congrates!
happy.gif
 


jazzyjas, congrats!! glad to know u and bb ok
happy.gif
did you ever check for your haemoglobin in your antenatal screening test? cos i sometimes feel giddy and doc checked for blood count, found out it was low, that's why i had to increase iron supplement. symptoms include lethargy and giddiness.
 
missmoon, i thk have.. bt he din mention anythg abt low red blood count. He said everythg is ok. Must note down, next time c him must ask abt the giddiness.

Btw, have u seen this week's babycenter email? It mentioned abt the ache, pain in lower abs n groin.

jurong gal, visit the gynae & hear he says first.
 
jazzyjas, ya, saw that. very relieved to know that it's common
happy.gif
i wonder what else is in store for later stage of 2nd tri and not to mention 3rd tri.
 
Liverpool, congrats! That means another future solider for army!

Jazz,
congrats for having a girl.

Jurong gal,
Did u do OSCAR test? I think OSCAR test is safer than aminocentriosis.
 
Does everybody have bump to show now? Mine's kinda small like a baby pillow...can't see much unless I go on a binge, but then again now if eat one burger, can't breathe properly. Food digestion very bad like Manila's traffic jam..
 
jurong gal, do keep us updated...will keep u in prayer.

nurbates..my bump oso veri small especially in morning..but after a heavy meal is bomb up double the size. if i take train before food..no seat, if after food..people give up seats : )
heehee..treat no problem..small small wan.

congrat Jazz a princess, n liverpool a prince can go play football wif u : )

yb, ya that the only benefit working in hospital mah...heehee! I tink KKH scan more after 32weeks. 2nd tri only detail scan thereafter they only scan for heatbeat...

btw do bb movement get heavy by days? mine seem the same leh..sometime even lesses...
 
nurbates,how many wks u in now?
i think diff mtbs will hv diff bumps to show lah, cos all diff mah, depends on our sizes also.

a client of mine commented that i am small for someone in 19 wks gestation. similarly for me, by after lunchtime, bump becomes more pronounced.
 
zita27
bb movement like very erratic for me - sometimes a lot in one day, then sometimes none at all. i read that between 16 and 22 wks bb movements are like that, then thereafter should get more obvious and regular.
 
Hi All,

I have just done my detailed scan at thomson medical...confirm its a BOY...

after that went bugis seiyu for shopping as they are having 20% sales...hehehe...

Missmoon, Zita &amp; Fruitee,
I started to feel bb moving earlier this week and was skeptical about it until it happens everyday. So far, bb's most active in the afternoon when I'm sitting down. Probably he/she feels squashed ;p
I agree with missmoon, bb's movement is quite erratic one, some days more while others less... heehee for now i guess
happy.gif

My hubby's still overseas
sad.gif
But when i smsed him about bb's movement, he's so excited that he called me immediately... hmm... he seems more excited than me ;p

Jurong gal,
Hope everything's going fine for u... Stay positive
happy.gif


Nurbates,
My bump's starting to show &amp; my tummy feel so tight. Sigh... Don't know what to do to "loosen" the tightness feeling
sad.gif

Oh yah, I feel breatheless more often nowadays too, especially after a meal... like need more oxygen just to digest food
sad.gif

I also constantly sound nasal whenever I talk... like flu like that
sad.gif
I read somewhere that this is normal due to thickening of mucosal lining in trachea (forgot how to spell). Do you have this too?
 
Hullo preggers!!

My baby is beginning to be active too, move all over the place, cause still small mah, womb quite spacious, can swim here and there..
bounce.gif

About breathlessness, ya man....can't finish a meal in one sitting, must eat rest..then eat again, if not cannot breathe. But problem is, I keep gettin hungry too!!

I'm currently in my 18 weeks, don't look that pregnant unless I walk around in a bikini, then again people must just think I'm just fat.
blush.gif


I'm gettin anxious to know my baby's gender. Dh soooo sure it's a boy this time round, kept calling "baby boy", actually I'm kinda worried if it's a boy.

Frankly, I don't know how to handle boyslah, especially with that "extra" thing down there..sure must buy extra towels, even prepare goggles.

I once saw my nephew spray himself with his "hose" straight after bath, wah...that fella cry like mad when his mom bathed him again...heeee..heee...hope it doesn't happen to me.
biggrin.gif
 
Hello everybody! I'm back from NZ. Good to hear that everybody is doing well. YB, pepper, may, enjoy yourselves in BKK, US and Perth. Hubby and I are planning a short trip to Phuket late March. Remember to request for an aisle seat cos we need to run to toilet more often. Also preggies run higher risk of DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis - or blood clots), so for long flights especially, try to get one of those flight socks or maternity support hose. Personally, I also request for special meals - those low fat/low calorie type from SQ cos it helps with my bloating problem. Drink lots of water too and make yourself comfortable!

Pepper, your hubby is very sweet to get a biz class tix for u. It does make a difference for a very long trip like the US. For me, this trip was comfortable with the hardly noticeable bump on biz class. I still have a few more long-haul biz trips planned for the rest of 2nd tri/early 3rd tri, probably will get increasingly uncomfortable.

missmoon, same thing for me. Tummy looks small for someone in 19 wks gestation in the morning. Then after meals, bump balloons! Now a bit bu san bu si, normal clothing is getting to be a tight squeeze, maternity clothing (esp tops) are way too big.
 
japeaprl, thanks for updating.
happy.gif


missmoon, my bump is showing bt not big. As long as bb is doing ok then i guess it sd be fine.
happy.gif


zita27, my bb is more active in the day at times.. bt sometimes nite she is oso active.

Fruiee, thanks.
happy.gif
How r u these days?

ashleywcy, i feel breatheless if i walk 2 long at times. Ya, after a meal, at times oso. We have to eat slowly i guess.
 
Hi Zita27,
My friend took up the package at KKH, but doc do ultrasound scan for every visit leh?

I feel the baby's movement strongest when I'm sitting down &amp; lying down on bed at night. Won't notice any movements while I'm on the move though..
 
Hi Lok,
Dun think Ill need to get flight socks for my trip to BKK right? it's only 1hr 45mins flight. Somemore, I'm flying JetStar Asia, so they won't be serving meals on board. Do you know if I can pack my own drinks on board? Thx, will try to request for aisle seat near to toilet.
 
Hi YB, haven't tried Jetstar Asia before but I understand that budget airlines are "free-seating" (at least based on my experience with Ryan Air when I was working in Europe). There is no seat allocation, so u will have to be there early... Own food, I can't remember but it shld be ok.
 
dear, congrats!!

wow, gender column is filling up fast...i can't wait for my turn
happy.gif
getting anxious liao

lok, ya lor agree wif u, maternity tops too big but i cannot fit into my normal clothes liao and maternity pants/jeans starting to fill up already. sometimes the afternoon bloating up is a little uncomfortable esp when wearing jeans. now i find wearing dresses more comfy, like i m not suffocating so bb dun hv to suffer.

ashleywcy, fruitee, are u all keeping track of bb's movements huh? i only take notice how frequent i feel bb move but nvr record down. hb says i shld start doing so leh

jazzyjas, agreed! bump size doesn't really matter so long as bb ok
 
fruitee, japepearl &amp; missmoon, thks...

Actually quite heart pain, I spend a bomb on sat. The funny part is when my hb walk away to toilets or for a smoke. I have to make payment. Wau lau, make me so 'angry' leh.

I have to paid $105 for detailed scan &amp; $350 for the balance package which I sign up then hor $50plus for the lab test as my vagina got infection so need to send the discharge for testing. Plus the gynae say that my placenta abit low &amp; bb head abit too big &amp; hor I GAIN 4kg leh. Gynae say too much ask me to reduce my intake. I so scare bb head too big hor have to do c-section leh. So muz guai guai listen to gynae.
 
Hi Lok,
Jetstar Asia has merged with Valueair since last yr. They have allocated seats for their passangers now. I'll bring along a bottle or mineral water, just in case.

My hb also overseas now... told him about bb movements, he cant wait to be back to feel it himself..
happy.gif


Jazz
I'm quite ok I guess.. looking forward for hb's return..

Missmoon
I never take record on bb's movement.. just that his movement quite frequent on the same timing.. kekeke..
 
missmoon &amp; fruitee, i din take record of bb's movements.
Today she is quiet, i woke up til now she din action yet. Last nite hb talked 2 her (coz i tol him she din kick since afternoon) then she kicked.. usually every morning when i woke up she wd loh. Kinda not used when she dun.
 
dear, i can understand. money hard to earn but so easy to spend. each gyane visit spend so much. hey, you must guai guai listen to gynae liao. dun worry too much though
happy.gif

oops, how come got double posting?

jazzyjas, fruitee, for me i got no fixed timing leh, quite irregular but usually in the afternoon.
 
missmoon, yah lor...so heart pain leh till now...but bo bian these money hv to spend one lor...i will be guai guai listen to gynae lor...
 
Jazz
Maybe she is still sleeping...
happy.gif

Sometimes, the movement can be continuously... but when someone try to feel the movement... They tend to stop.. ahhaha... just dun wanna let other feel it.. cute right?
 
dear, is 4 kg too much when we are close to 5 mths?? I find that surprising. During my last visit at 16 weeks, I gained abt 3 kg till then (1kg+ during 1st tri &amp; the rest in 2nd tri) and my gynae was like saying "oh finally u are gaining some weight). Maybe becos I was underweight to start with. I figured that by my next visit at 20 weeks, it shld be abt 4 kg or more. Your gynae's comment kinda worries me..
 
jazzyjas, i was reading this book on the "up to 22 wks" of gestation, apparently we'll be feeling aches and pains in the abdomen cos at this time, bb is fully developed and will be exercising the limbs etc, doing somersaults and all that, thus causing the discomfort.

fruitee, haha, ya ya, sometimes continuous to get your attention and sometimes very light nudges to say hello only
happy.gif
 
Jurong gal - Try not to worry too much. Do keep us updated. I too got a scare when the clinic says that something is wrong with my test results. They dun tell us much over the phone and it's much better to hear it from the gynae himself. But luckily, with another blood test, confirmed that I'm ok.

hi girls,

I think i'm having a much more difficult time this pregnancy. My first preg was a breeze, but this time round, I have spotting, pain in the butt and now I have a new problem. Anyone experienced pain in the gums? Like having a tooth decay? I've seen my dentist twice over the pain at different teeth over the past week. But I already have fillings at those teeth and she suspect that it's at the nerves. All she can do is to take out the nerves, but I might still feel the pain, so might not solve the prob. Futhermore, we cannot take x-ray now. She said that this could be due to preg. She advised me to monitor the situation first and see how. At first, I tried to 'act hero', refused to take panadol, ended up cannot sleep a wink at night. Then, no choice, I took panadol but I cannot take panadol all the time, right?? Sigh.. so much to consider now that we're preg..

My dentist also said that she had a patient who experienced pain in perfectly good tooth, with no decay and had to do root canal treatment cos she cannot stand the pain anymore. Then the patient came back and complained abt pain in another tooth. So throughout the preg, she had root canal at a few good teeth.
 
Missmoon
ahhaha... ya loh..
Sometimes when I was abt to sleep.. he was so active even when I was lying side preparing to sleep... when working got free time, wan him to be active.. he just tap tap say hi.. ahahh..
 
hi gals...
i am back from BKK..

bb movements also v erratic... but notice tat he is active mostly at nite! :p

anyone hv "swollen" feet already? i can feel so tight at my feet. like the skin hv not expand and it's bursting with the "swollen" meat!
thinking tat it's abit too early to hv water retention rite?

Dear - My bb head also on the big side... Gynae also says might be difficult to hv natural birth.
sad.gif
u gain 4 kg since preg? tat's consider alot? i gain 5kg during my last visit liao. :p
 
lok, i was told the same thing by my doc. he said the weight gain is consistent and nothing to worry about cos i wasn't gaining at all during 1st tri. then suddenly end of 1st tri, started to gain. gynae also said bb growth ok. i guess so long as your gynae scan and say bb growth is consistent, nothing to worry, i think.
 
daisyduck, i think it's part of being preggie leh, cos i've been reading up this particular book and it says that during the 2nd tri up to 22 wks or so, some will experience soreness in gums, some get spots all over body and some experience aches in funny places.

mtdt, i've been getting water retention occasionally since late 1st tri leh but not as bad as before being preggie. after shower at night, i usually rest my feet higher up than head, and that helps.
 
fruitee, tat's wat hb says oso.. tat she is tired &amp; still sleeping. Cant help it.. must not "run 2 the gynae"..

missmoon, ya, tat's wat my gynae said oso. Its ok 2 feel aches &amp; pain ard the pelvic area on n off.

Have experience continuous oso.
happy.gif
Yest have 2 slightly hard punch on the left in the afternoon.
Now i wanna feel it, she dowan do it.
 
missmoon - i also rested my feet higher last nite... so today it seems better!

now my toes look like those small cocktail sausage!!! hahahah
 
jazzyjas, hahaa, ya lor. when i wan bb to move and kick me, he/she doesn't. stubborn bb.

mtdt, haaaa...it looks different when puffed up too hor. let's hope this water retention thing will be far and sporadic...dun happen so often...imagine 3rd tri!!!
 


lok &amp; missmoon, like missmoon i did not gain any weight in 1st tri. Last week i weighted, i gained 1+kg. Gynae din comment on my weight, juz tat if i put on 5kg now, it wd be me 4kg &amp; bb 1kg.

mtdt, u mite wanna try exercising ur feet? As in rotating motion. Bt not sure if it wd help.
