I used Guardian's pregnancy test and they're pretty sensitive. Sometimes at the box they will state what level of HCG they can detect. The lower the more sensitive.

Hi E-Ling,
I'm feeling the same way, will be my 8th week this Friday...I only started to feel like this a week ago. Usually you will feel better by the 4th month...I know THAT seemed like a very long time....*sigh* at least for me.

I'm going to have an OSCAR test in early February. The doctor said it might be good since I'm 33 years old. I'm also having my blood tests done on the same day at the doctor's suggestion so they only need to draw out a little bit more blood instead of having to poke me again at another time.
My husband managed to escape doing the Thalessemia blood test...lucky guy!!!! He's so phobic of needles and blood that he's grinning like a clown when we told the doctor of his phobia and she said no need. Unless I'm a carrier of thalessemia then he got to do also. But I think I don't have because my first child, now almost 10 years old, when I pregnant with her, my test is negative.
I hope my test will be normal...I'm so nervous because we waited so long for this baby.

hi all,
I'm new here. Now in my Week 9.1, EDD is 15 Aug 06.
My MS started in my Week 5. Horrible! Beside feeling tired and nausea..I had dry cough since Week 5, dun know it is part of the MS or I just too weak to get well. Drink a lot of cough syrup but still can't get well, afraid will affect the baby.
Hi Bena,
I had used Guardian's pregnancy test(the cheaper one in the shelf) when I was Week 5(feeling nausea). I even used it at night and the result shown fast. The test kit depend more on your HCG than the brand. A friend of mine at Week 5 use ClearBlue still can't detect until she went to the doctor. So good luck!

Hi Makeupfairy,
Ya its so terrible to have experience all these symptoms. Wat we can do is to pray n hope it will go off asap!
I heard of AMWAY n i have tried their products n being their member before. I m out for that hehe no offence as i don like MLM.. TKS for e concern
Wow seem to have a debate for Bena abt e pregnancy test kit man hehe. Mayb some applies some not bah as it depends on individual HCG level too.. anyway, jus try any brand of ur preference BUT don be disappoint if negative cos not all are accurate lo. Try it again about 1 week later... if doubt, e best to see a gynae.
Cos i once had a frd she don have any symptoms, menses missed for quite sometime about 2weeks. They are not extreme active sexually.. she tried using off shelves test kit but its negative SHE STILL WORRY & go gynae.
Gyane do a test, done blood test too & do a scan. In e scan there is something mini inside which is her BB! Gosh.. so.. e theory of e story is... up to u to judge lah hehe.
CHEERS!

Hi Stay,
Cough is tough as alot things cant take esp now pregnant too.
Try avoid chicken & egg now since u have cough. As for 'liang' i not so sure cos i odno how to judge from there. Normally i will avoid those 2 food as above. No harm trying.

Hi, newbie here. EDD early Aug also.
Same here, I went toilet min 1 or 2 times at night. Sometimes can up to 5 times. So, I try not to drink so much water at night. But, drink more during day time.
Hi yipee, the EDD is calculated based on the size of the foetus? DS test is Down Syndrome test? Is this a optional test and how is the test will be carried out? I will be going for blood test in my next visit, not sure what will be tested also.

I also can't wait for the 1st trimester to be over. At about week 9 now. Time seems to be passing very slowly. Just continuing to hope for everyone here that everyday bb grows bigger, stronger and healthier.
BTW, do most ppl's bouts of MS come and go? I was fairly ok, just had gas and bloating and constant hunger, but 2 days ago was feeling pretty yucky and nauseous. Today not so bad but appetite seems a bit reduced.

Hi chrys,
Quite sure about the $450, yah, u need to keep all the receipt then can give all receipt to the hospital during admission, heard they will settle the claim for us. I'm very sure normal delivery is $1k plus and C section is $2k plus, the exact figure I can check for you when I go home because doctor did write down the price for me .

augustmum, how come you have to take hormone pills? I've been vomitting and vomitting also, now starting to get cough...so fed up. Coughing makes you want to vomit more *sigh*
yippee, did you find out about the sugar in your urine during the doctor visit? I had gestational diabetes on my 7th month during my first pregnancy and big probability I will have it this time around again.

I found out by searching online that wild yam might be able to help deal with morning sickness. But dunno if it will work or whether it is safe, must definitely ask the doctor first.
WILD YAM- VP-K+(in excess)
Actions: nutritive tonic, aphrodisiac, rejuvenative, diuretic, antispasmodic, analgesic
Indications: impotency, senility, hormonal deficiency, infertility, colic, nervous excitability, hysteria, abdominal pain and cramps, nausea, vomiting, morning sickness
The most common use of wild yam is for the hormonal effects, as it contains DHEA, a hormone precursor. This constituent has usefulness for both men and women, as it can be made by the body into many other hormones, but it does have a particular slant towards progesterone, and so is especially useful for women. These progesterone compounds are also used for exhausted adrenal conditions, and it is comparable to licorice in that effect and its effect on balancing blood sugar levels. Also used for digestive system problems of a bilious or gaseous nature. Its alkaloid constituents act as strong relaxants to the stomach muscles and nerves, and so can be very useful in nausea, cramping, and vomiting. Stong rejuvenative powers. Increase semen, milk and other horomal secretions, and increases body weight, tonic for female reproductive system. Soothing and harmonizing effect on digestive organs.

Hi wanli,
Have u signed up package with Dr Wong? when's ur next visit?
I also went to toilet 1 or 2 times at night, but feel that it's improving now, previously more frequent. Try not to drink too much water at one go especially before sleep, day time also the same, drink sip by sip, take ur time to finish one cup, it's the best way to refil fluid loss in our body. It's like watering plants, if u water too much at one go, all the water will pour out, the plants will not fully absorb the water... (old grandma telling story... ;p) I put a glass of warm water beside my bedside, so that i can drink a bit when i wake up at night, it helps to refil fluid in our body too.
Those mummies having MS, stay on!! Most pple will get over it after 1st tri.
Any of u going for the 1st Mom Congress at Suntec Convention Centre tomorrow?

Wow, so many of us in the same boat. My MS's also whole day affair. The funny thing is my son is imitating me now. When I squat by the toilet bowl to vomit, he will stand by my side and pretend to cough and spat. So funny.
Makeupfairy,
My doc gives pregnant woman hormone pills (white small pills) in the first trimester. Always thought it's the norm. What medications are you on now?
Bearybear,
Why are you on hormone injections three times a day?

Hi augustmum,
My doctor said that she won't give me any hormone pills if the pregnancy is strong and normal meaning no bleeding or spotting. Right now I'm just on folic acid and multivitamins.

Wanli,
I think I will do the OSCAR test too. Since must draw blood anyway, might as well do the test.
Stay,
I hate vege too and garlic. Now also taking fruits and fruit juice to supplement vitamin C. Think only after MS is over, then can have a more balance diet.
Aiyo, counting down everyday for first trimester to be over. 3 more weeks...

jazz,
I nvr heard abt tomatoes being bad for bb. If really wanna consider 'bad', then it'll be the same reason as eating too much carrot/papaya. They contain too much of the beta dunno wat substance i guess which pple say will cause jaundice in bbies.
As for liver, it's not advisable to be taken in excessive amts cos of the high vit A content which may harm the bb.
augustmum,
My gynae wans me to continue wif the jabs n pills until the end of the 1st trimester leh. Haiz...
RE: OSCAR test
Wat exactly is tis? Nvr hear my gynae mention anything abt it.

Hi Peacy,
I can imagine yr tummy definitly bigger than me
. I can also see my tummy abit already and have bought some new pants. Actually I didn't gain much weight, think only around 1 kg so far. I feel hungry most of the time but my appetite not good, feel very nausea when saw the food. can only eat small portion at a time
.
Is yr MS getting better? Regarding the blood test (Triple test) my doctor said will do it on my 16 weeks. For 12 weeks I will only do the neck thickness scan. If yr doctor never mention I think you better ask him and check with him whether u need it or not.
Basically there are 2 type of blood test for checking the down syncdrome, Triple test and OSCAR. OSCAR should do it around 12 weeks but not all hospital offer this test. So some of the doctor may not mention it at all.
