Hi ixora , page up & angela, fen
yeah, i've also got pimples on my forehead! duno is it coz' of my dandruff (which I think is caused by my pregnancy) but it's better now. i also had alot of pimples on my chest during my 1st 2 months of pregnancy! i apply mopiko.
but my complexion is not as good tho. my pores are bigger now, even my beautician said that!
Hi ixora
sigh looks like i'm the only 1 with a big nose! = oP but my fren thinks that i'll have a baby boy coz' usually the mommies with baby boys look uglier! haha but another fren told me it's the opposite! so i'm all confused now!
Hi fen

Hello everyone,
Just checking in. Hope everyone's having a great week
Re breastfeeding:
I hope I didn't offend anyone with my views. I understand that breastfeeding is a very personal decision. No one can tell you to breastfeed or not to breastfeed and I respect that. Personally, I am very pro breastfeeding as i believe in the benefits of breast milk, both for moms and the child. I didn't have it easy either as my MIL was very unsupportive and kept saying that my baby was crying, not enough milk blah.... and it was a very trying time as I was trying to give my best to baby but no one seemed to understand. I was crying almost everyday, had cracked nipples and developed a yeast infection. Worse, my MIL fed my son FM in a bottle, leading to nipple confusion and hence he rejected my breast for a while. I had to pump every 2 hours, sometimes giving my son pink milk -- tainted with my blood, as my nipples were bleeding from all the friction from the pump.The "cow" statement was my way of finally rebutting my MIL to stop hampering my breastfeeding efforts. Still have a lot of other stories, but I managed to feed him breast milk for slightly over a year. Now I am wiser and I know that I will do it all over again for this baby that I am expecting. As I've mentioned before, I am pro breastfeeding but it is a very personal decision. I ENCOURAGE moms to breastfeed, but I have no right to TELL you you have to. Please don't misunderstand.
Re weddings:
I very sua ku about these things, cos' my entire family from 2 generations are christian. Can someone please explain why it is pang tang? I don't wish to cause any unhappiness by turning up at a friend's wedding with a big tummy.
Oh I had a swollen nose with my boy too, but only in the last few weeks before delivery. Come to think of it, I think I was swollen all over, look like big WHALE!

hi mtbs, so i'm not the only one having outbreaks... was just complaining to my hubby this morning that i'm becoming fat & ugly.
so depressing...
for me, in the morning i usually will have diarrhoa but by evening, feel bloated and constipated... really horrible. Plus, these few days, keep having bad headaches for the whole day (dunno whether its the haze or the pregnancy that's causing it).
next thurs, i'll be going for my next visit with the OB and will be doing the blood test. a bit frighten coz i hate needles. do the clinics only perform blood tests on the wives or also on the husbands?

Hi ladies,
Re: Pregnant mothers attending weddings.
I heard a different version from my mum, she said it is ok to attend wedding dinners but we cannot be jie mei to the brides. Old people said pregnant jie mei will bring unhappiness or bad luck to the newly wed couple.
Anyway, I agree, if the couple and their family members are not comfortable with our presence at the wedding, then it is better that we don't attend.
hi michele,
me did the same yesterday. Hubby was telling me I should start to go swimming. I told him I don't want to because I too fat and ugly to look good in swimsuit. He answered "You are pregnant, nobody will expect you to stay slim.. moreover, looking good in swimsuit and going for a swim are 2 separate issues"

Hi Fong
i ask my gynae if i can do mani n pedi - he said ok. my nails are in very bad shape so i've to get it done every few weeks and my feet are very rough and dry.
hi page up, ixora15
guess i juz have to wait for the next 2 scans before knowing if it's a boy or girl. altho i'm toying with the idea of letting it be and not finding out till the baby is born! = O )
ixora - guess we juz have to bear with the breakout! i also had very bad dandruff last few months which subsided recently. but it has started again!
Hi michele - don't worry, we're not fat, we're juz pregnant! i was also telling my husband i'm really fat n he said it's ok, i'm juz pregnant!
and yeah i had headache on sunday too - duno if it's the haze too! but my gynae did say that pregnant women do get headaches now and then.

Hi Fong,
It shld be fine to do manicure & pedicure. Better to avoid nail salons during the first trimester to play safe.
U may want to read the infor abit mani / pedi from here - http://www.babycenter.com/plus/safe/quest.jhtml?iisQuestId=1136611

Wow Dlim,
Thanks for sharing. Impressive list! Imagine one buys everything... can go broke before the bb is born :=)
Im in my 15 weeks now, starting to buy things for myself first :=)
Anyone looking for flat shoes - nice & affordable - can try this brand call 'Mondo' (hmmmm... hope i spell it correctly). They hv branches at Tampines Century Sq, Jurong Pt, and Far East Plaza. I bought a pair of Jap-looking casual shoes for $19.90. AMERICAYA also carries nice flat working shoes. Bought one pair recently for $35 (after 10% discount at Isetan).
I'm looking for padded nursing bra. Kindly share lobang, thanks :=)

Hi Mum_wannabe,
Dun mentioned. I got this infor from one of the thread from motherhood as well. Since someone is asking, might as well share it with all of u.
Ya..imagine so many things to buy...sure broke!
Thanks for recommend "Mondo", will take note if I were to shop at the nearby branches.
I saw padded nursing bra at Clound9 @ Suntec & one of the maternity shop @ Great World (Level 3/4..cant remember liao but its on the same level with the GV). I guess some of the maternity shops do sell the nursing bra as well.

Hi mum_wannabe,
i havent start wearing nursing bra though its expanding..just bought the bra extension.. hope it can last til end term.. hehe..
Hi MTBs,
did you all bought the belly belt? selling quite ex outside..but heard its good as you can still wear your own pants and just put in the extension.. at least can save on the pants.. any good lobang around?? hehe.. i havent start buying bb things too..just clothings for myself.. but from experience mums, they mentioned that those pants with a crisscross band in front (not sure if you all seen before) cannot wear until full term one..usually last2-3 trimester cannot wear liao..best if you can buy those wear high high up to tummy type.. actually i think its ugly so didnt buy any yet.. hehe.. but i think quite true..cos til now, as tummy gets bigger, the criscross band keeps sliding down..unless you like those low waist type, else you will find yourself keep pulling it up..not sure if you all experience it already or not..hehe..
btw me bought a stool loosener from Unity called Duphalac which is suitable for pregnancy womens.. not sure good or not though..
i realise Unity meadicine quite cheap..like i bought a bottle of calcium pill (450mg) for just $7 (sunward brand) and iron pill (Sangobion brand) for only $8.. Sangobion brand is exactly the same i took from Mt A but not the calcium pill..i ask the pharmist for consultation and they say the contents inside is the same just that brand different only.. the calcium pill actually contains 450mg of calcium carbonate and 200iu of Vitamin D3 whereas the one from the doctor contains 300mg of calcium lactate.. not sure if its ok.. maybe i need to seek consultation before eating.. hehe.. any comments on this??

Only a kind soul quite faraway did that but I too faintish to walk over liao. Other passengers helped me over lor, so paiseh!

hey ladies,
Think we should start sleeping on our left side now cos that's baby natural sleeping position (hence more comfort for bb)plus we can pass much nutrients and oxygen to baby in this pose due to some major veins. I'm having difficulty changing position cos I sleep on the right, xian....

i think can lah cos my SIL continue to do while she was carrying her BB. she even told me better let the manicurist do the job, so we wont sniff too much of the chemical smell.
hi blueroti,
talking abt fats.. hmm, last sunday me and my hb brought his mum and dad out for dinner. then i heard my MIL whispering to my hb tat can tell i m pregnant.. i ask how she can tell cos i very small size except the tummy growing bigger nowadays, then she said 'oh, your butts getting bigger mah!' *faintz*
i will make sure & i m determined to loose the fats after gave birth after hearing such comments from her... so sadzz
Re: bloatedness & constipation
still feel bloated this evening.. super sian, so hard to sit down for watiching tv, keep changing the seating positions... dunno how to sit and make myself feeling better.
for constipation, think no so much a problem for me cos usually do my biz once every 2-3days. now still the same, just try to drink 2full cups of water b4 tat and try to eat more papaya but still must control the intakes cos it will make BB yellowish

hi snowflakes
yes, pls bring axe oil as suggested by stileto. in fact, during my 1st 3 months i also bring a ntuc bag with me no matter where i go - in case i need it! m not sure if it helps but how abt trying to eat some biscuits before u take the train? i had to munch on some cookies before i take the mrt or i'll feel very weak, want to faint.
hi jmonster
i'm resigned to piling on the kilos for the next few months! i juz went for steamboat for dinner n was so full that my skirt was so tight! n tummy was so round! anyway, will start thinking abt losing weight later lah! = o )

Hi!
re: bloatedness
I'm in my 14th week and still feel bloated at times. esp before bed... and the strange thing is when i get hungry, I'll get very nausea..and if i don't eat anything fast, I'll totally lose my appetite and feel like vomitting..
re: haze
i think the haze is quite bad.. me getting headaches very frequently too and nausea which was about to subside came back since the haze begun..
re: constipation
it seems like most mummies here having constipation.me on the other hand, needs to go toilet a few times a day.. anyone has the same ezxperience as me?

Hi Dlim,
Thanks for the list. At least got some cues now. Just wondering when do we start buying all these stuff. Don't really wanna wait till 3rd trim when I am so heavy then start buying. But right now cos of the bad MS and vomitting, I also no mood to go out and buy during weekends. kekeke....sian. Actually I haven't even start buying any maternity wear for myself yet. Only bought 2 non-underwired bra due to expanding breast. Luckily got some friends who pass me some maternity wear. Think I must start buying some bottoms for myself soon. Any sales you gals know of?

Hi Ice Queen,
Well, im not very sure also but u can start to buy once the doctor confirm the gender of yr bb. U can also start buying some if u have the time to go for shopping. It would be best if can check with relatives or friends whether they can pass some of the bb things to u like baby cot. Cox most of my colleagaues told me baby cot no need to buy cox ur bb will not use that for long. Best if someone can pass to u / borrow from them.
Yup, u will need the bottom more compare to the tops. Not sure whether thyme maternity / Spring / Clound9 still have 10% dicsount from ladies DBS card. U can check it out.
Heard there is this bra extension rite? Anyone of u bought this? Cox my bra is getting more tighter now so thought of getting one. Anyone know where can find the bra extension?

Kiwi and Strawberry is very good and they reali helps. maybe you gals can try cos i use to hv poo problem b4 pregnancy but after tat no issue at all.. But the only problem i have is i had outbreak of Eczema.. quite tough. sighzzz
Btw, do you gals know how many weeks then will be able to know the gender of the BB??

Hi ixora
yes... it's irritating.. and i attributethe return of the nausea to the haze i guess... unhealthy air that we breathe in makes us feel sick easier
why must we suffer the consequences of the mistakes that others make?

Hi ixora15,
Thanks! I think I had overlooked when I was there. Ok, will buy one if Im going down again.
Hi Angela Lee,
U shld be able to know the gender of yr bb during the 4th - 5th mth. If its a boy, it will be more easier to identify if the doctor can see the little thing sticking out during the scanning...
