msn_queen,
yeah lor yeah lor. Headache hor, when you think about it? I will buy edu insurance for my children la, so that we don't have to worry so much. If we both keep working then our CPF shouold also have enuff money lo, unless bb wanna go overseas to study, but my hubby says he will not provide for children to go overseas to study, if they want they gotta get their own scholarship or other means.
serrich,
So cute! I am still feeling mainly flutters, and because it's still quite early for me, I also like Alethea like that, sometimes wonder if it is really bb lo. Cannot wait for the time when I can definitely say that it's bb kicking! For now I mainly feel the movements when I'm sitting or lying still, most of the time it's morning around this time or at night when I'm preparing for bed.

Bluegrapes/Babymilk/Icylemon - we all sama sama lah. But I would like to think that God planned it this way, for us to be more mature hot mamas who have settled down after all the fun, and can now lavish all our attention on BBs.
Serrich, yah, I pity my DH but he's understanding lah. Anywayz, been having a lot of kinky dreams lately, so in a way, these make up for the loss in action!

serrich, talking about vitamins...I have stopped my multi-vits for 3 weeks! Did not go and buy from gynae. Past 3 weeks only took calcium, fish oil and folic acid. Fish oil supposed to take 2 a day but I only take one...think I will increase the intake soon.
icylemon, hard to describe but you will definitely know whether it's movements or hunger pangs.

Alethea...my fish oil is Pro-Lacta...supposed to take 2 per day but it's quite expensive so initial stage I just start with 1 per day. My first pregnancy I took Neurogain too...now the Neurogain B+ I think can buy from Guardian Pharmacy at $29. Thinking of switching to that...currently I am paying $34 for Pro-Lacta. I have been taking multi-vits since first trimester.

My gynae say take fish oil only at 20 weeks.
But the multi vit is very heaty one. Some may have constipation. I am taking fibregel once a week to ease the constipation.
Icylemon: Yeah lunch time.
What you gals having for lunch?

We planning to buy health insurance (not confirm yet) coz now hubby already buying investent plan which could be used for bb education next time. We are hoping to have more value/asset over the years, so that dun need to think of waht happen in later life.
icylemon,
I got different views on having boy or ger based on myths... and all of them are so confusing, talking abt oppsition until i stop listening to them. And only based on waht gynae told me then I will believe.
Aqua,

MSN Queen, I called ESH to check on the Citibank promo...think no more...will probably take 4 bedded at TMC...if on actual day no free upgrade to 2 bedded then I will request to change to 2 bedded. Cos ESH's 2 bedded more expensive than TMC but their single bedded is the cheapest. After considering I think I won't choose single bedded this time round.
I read from the instructions like say to take 2 tablets...dun tell me I read wrongly? Must go back and check later.
Bluegrapes...currently I am still taking one fish oil daily.

bluegrapes: ya, i hope so too. my gynae was telling me that i will gain at least 6kg more till delivery. And she also dun wan me to gain too much too cos i am going for c-section. And it is easier to shed if i gain less.

preg4, I think I really put on a lot this month...last month at gynae's clinic I only weigh 500g more than pre-preggie weight...yesterday I weigh myself like put on extra 3kg...getting worried that I am overeating or my gestational diabetes came back. Cos I remembered when I had GD in my first pregnancy, I had a sudden weight gain of 4kg. Now praying hard my weight gain is not due to that. Will know on Friday.

preg4a2ndone, think more important is that your scan reflect that bb is ok and growing well lor. I have a fren who is in week 17 now. She also gained 1 kg so far. Should be fine.
aquarius, u lah..now I keep thinking about the fish soup mee sua with chilly padi!! haha..so 2 more days to your checkup.

preg4, but my weight gain for this pregnancy slower than first pregnancy...first child I already put on about 3kg when I reach 2nd trimester.
I asked my hubby if he finds me eating a lot, he told me no leh...maybe it's the chocolates and the snacks? But still like a lot to gain 3kg in a month even if it's snacking.

Bluegrapes, what mutli-vits did Dr Chan prescribe you? I must ask her next week when I see her. When's your next visit?
Just came back from Jap lunch. Had beef teppanyaki. Do you all feel that your tummy is super stretched and very tight immediately after a meal? I had trouble walking back to office.

icylemon, i just bought this book - The POPULAR Food Guide @ Singapore. Inside this book they tell you which stall is nice and price plus their address...quite cheap...only $5.90 if you are a POPULAR member.
icylemon,
It's cheaper if you find a group of 5 or 6 and order dishes, instead of individual portions. Comes up to only about 4-5 bucks per person. My lunch today for 5 pple included 1 chicken, 1 rendang, 1 fish roe (small portion), 4 potato thing things, 1 sambal goreng, 1 veggie. Total was only 20+.
Didn't really like Tong Shui leh, I think Central at Taka is better. kekekekekekekeke
