pbuttercup,
Welcome to the thread.
CK,
Hmmmm, queen sized bed should still be OK with bolster, I think. Last time we used to have a queen sized bed with my first pregnancy. I had a body pillow, which is bigger than a bolster. Maybe you'll just be sleeping closer to your hb lah
. But once you're on your side, you actually occupy a little less space.
hahaha, you use your pillow as a bolster? That's workable too. But you might like to get another pillow for your head?

Ck..
My honest opinion n with some reading up..once u have no bleeding/spotting, u dont need a jab. Unless there are other underlying conditions that u have..then u must ask gynae.
I heard synthetic hormones are not good for the body. So as a patient, u can still insist on not getting jabs.
I was prescribe hormone pills at my 1st appt when i was around 6 weeks..but have not taken them at all..n my baby is doing fine. Gynae say is to stabilise the pregnancy n to prevent bleeding..then I question him if I really need them n is it true that the hormones are actually not good for the body..and he couldnt give me a concrete answer..So my own conclusion, I find the risks/side effects outweigh the benefits..so I didnt take them. In fact I took them faithfully in my 1st pregnancy, but I still m/c.

By the way, gynae make their most money on this kind of stuff..jabs, hormone presciptions n vitamins! So to me, if it doesnt seem so necessary..but gynae still want to prescribe to u..then they are out to make money. That's my opinion lah..of cos some gynaes are very honest ppl..so they wont do such things.
koh,
I thought this is your first pregnancy. So blur me.
So you got a boy and girl....so good. Congrats. Ask u, is there any difference in terms of pregnancy symptoms between this one and your 1st one? One of my colleague told me during lunch if symptoms more or less the same, then chance of getting the same sex as 1st one will be high...
Your ps problem ok already?

Hi Ck,
thot you passed 12 weeks already? How come still got so many jabs? My gynae refused to jab me after 8 weeks so now even if I want, he wouldnt do it. If you are well and no more spotting, there is no need to have the jab. Think you should let gynae knows how you feel. If he thinks that you need the jab, then he has to explain to you clearly the reason. As for scan, it has been proven that the risk to baby is minimal or none so really dun understand why he will mislead you or otherwise he has not kept himself updated with all these developments.

my hubby told him liao .. but he insist ...
the hormone won't harm bb i hope ...
and this gynae din tell me the effect of this jab .. it is definately lengthening my hair ...
tummy hair and down there hair ...
each jab is 30 extra ..
his package is 500 that includes vitamin pills ..
if he wanna earn money rite .. then he could suggest for going for the NT scan and all ma .. which he didn't ..
so i can't conclude on him ...

icy,
Oh dear
. So sorry for you. Do take care of yourself. Go back and be with your hubby. Regain your strength and energy. I really dunno how else to comfort you. Praying for you.
Oh dear
Icy, I am so sorry to hear that. I know how it feels since I gone thru that last year. Do cry out if it makes you feel better. My hb was also not around when I had the mc last year and I was staying in MIL hse. But straightafter the mc I moved back to my mum's place so that she can take care of me. Must make sure that you have a mini confinement ok? Rest well, build up your health and you will definitely have a healthy baby the next time.

Icy, I juz managed to find time to login and ws sad to hear your bad news. You muz be strong and take good care of yourself ok?? Never give up!!
wow, who know the gender of baby already? I still duno yet leh. I asked the sonographer last week, but she said too early to tell. Somewhat she did a scan from below of baby, but didn't see birdy. I hv a boy already and hope that this time will be a ger leh!
I am only in my 12 wks 3 days, ah ger you 15 wk liao? So fast leh!!!
I went for the NT scan, choosed the most cheapest test coz no point since whether what's going to happen we will still keep the baby. In the end do the NT & nasal bone scan only and the risk was reduced 5x according to my maternal age. I am already 35 (risk so high, sigh..) Can see nasal bone, so quite relief and I opt out the blood test after the scan.
Saying about tummy, wear maternity clothes seems like my tummy not so big to need those clothes yet, then if wear back normal clothes or polo shirt, I look like a a fatty woman! So sian and so ugly leh. My coll thinks that I grown fat, duno should I juz tell them now or juz let them to find out.
Now son cry, hope I can come in later. see you all later..

I went for my Oscar test on Friday and got the results back on Sat.
The risk for Down Sydrome and other chromosomal defects is low.
BB measures 6.61cm now and EDD becomes 17th Feb instead of 21st Feb.
Did the ultra scan on both Fri and Sat. And both times BB is sleeping. Only jerks and wakes up when stirred. My gynae says I got a lazy BB, sleeping on a Sat afternoon..hahaha.

hey gals....back from my super long weekend...got 2 days MC from gynae.
icy....i am sorry to hear that, do take good care of yourself. Go join your hb ....build up ur body again b4 trying again. Some said it's quite easy to get preggy again after tt.
I had a pretty bad cramp on National Day. Lower part of my tummy. So decided to go c gynae on 10 instead of 14 Aug. After checking gynae said everyhing is ok. The cramp is probably caused by the stretching of the liagment. Also did the NT scan & blood test together. Was quite difficult to measure the bb neck cos bb keeps moving the head. And bb also keeps putting the fingers in & out to the mouth. SO cute.
Am at 12wks 3days. bb measure at abt 6cm. Nxt app is 1 mth time. Now...just waiting for the blood test result. Hopefully, everything is ok....
Yesterday night my tummy was so bloated & as if there are lots of wind inside turning & fighting. The tummy can suddenly hv a very cramp feeling then it goes off...after letting some gas out better....but the whole tummy is still bloated & uncomfortable...making me loose my appetite too.

Rae, I wont go for the NT scan. My gynae asked me to go for triple test and abnormality scan, that's all.
bitbit, same here... some col told me that I've put on wt. I just smiled gracefully and told them it's true that I put on some wt lor.
smurfy, it's happy to hear that your bb is fine.
JC, your bb is so cute!!! Did you eat anything that cause the bloatedness?

hi ralliart, i oso got this problem. i told my gyne abt it,he ask me izzit got lots of worries, e.g who will take care of the bb? will hvg a bb affect my work etc. i told him no lei.anyway, he said can be due to many reasons, cos our body hormone will affect us. i used to sleep like a log, nw im a very light sleeper. i feel that i can sleep better after a shower, then after tt apply a soothing & relaxing body lotion to sleep and oso dun watch those exciting program before u sleep cos it will make ur mind very awake.
nuah couple,

hi ralliart,
yes, my stool is also blackish in colour sometimes. Its due to the iron pill. I went to maternity exchange last friday. The clothes are not bad though the work wear is a little limited and in my opinion 'aunty'. They are good if you need to rent evening pieces. The rental price for a short evening dress is about 60 - 70 for 4 weeks, so for those who are going for wedding dinner can consider renting.

ralliart, welcome!!! Stimes I'll just wake up in the middle of the nite and just cant get back to sleep till morning. But it's just occassionally lah, lucky not everyday. What multi-vit are u taking? I think some iron pills will have that effect.
nuahcouple, didnt swim and dont think can find the time to do that. Maybe you shd check with your gynae if you're fit to exercise? But think swimming is the best exercise tat we can do during preg. I also feel ache on the buttock area leh, esp if I sit for too long.
Catz, your MS really sound bad hor? Did u suffer the same for the first one?

hi gals
i am another one with black poo-poo.
Now i know why, must be the iron tabs that i am taking. ralliart, u can take beef, but make sure it is fully cooked. Beef contains lots of iron.
Do let ur gynae know if u wanna reduce the intake of iron tabs, cos he will be able to advise u whether u should do that.
i also have backaches... so painful when i try to stand after sitting for some time. When i try to turn on my bed, also very painful.
i realise the pain can be reduced if i sleep on my sides.

Hi there! lOng time no see.
I have been swimming regularly since before pregnancy. But last wk didn't go cos my daughter's eczema had a flare, and tonight I just feel too lazy to go. Every night I feel so bloated these days, too uncomfy to swim. But probably next wk, do or die, I'll go. My gynae said swmming and walking are good
