actually i only been to her clinic once for my 1st gynae check, before that i went to my family doc and my family doc did a simple blood test for me. next thur will be my second appt with her...to me, Dr wong is quite helpful and polite, as my hubby and i are first timers, we asked a lot of qns, and she did not rushed us, our first visit to her think about 1 hr....she even passed me her namecard and told me if i have queries i can email her.....so i did emailed her on qns and she replied very fast.
we even asked about FBI program, blood test etc and even cord blood thingy...think we are kan cheong type...she explained that now still early and wait till end of first trimester then sign up those FBI program at least pregnancy is more stable and confirmed loh....
but she did mentioned to me that she will ask me to take milk when the time comes as baby needs calcium but not now loh
so she passed me sample of the dumex milk powder and a first timer bag with brouchers.

cheezel,
No, I haven't started wearing maternity clothes..that's too embarassing. Still can fit into my current clothes (the looser pants and skirts).
I gained 13kg for my 1st preg...lost it all quite quickly. Trust me, with breastfeeding, lack of sleep and running after the little one, you'll shed off quite fast. Post natal massage helped too, but it's quite uncomfortable especially with the wrap (very hot and itchy and gotta wear overnight). The best way too lose weight quickly is still bfeeding..save milk powder $$ + lose wt!

Dr wong neber pass me any first timer baggies leh
I'm oredi on Anmum. One cuppa a day b4 sleep. Anlene will follow soon, when in 2nd tri. Bb will take a lot of calcium then. So must replenish. Remember this, mommies.
Nope, changed gynae. Coz hb finds the first one too quiet and un-informative. Yeah, i heard dr wong will spend 1 hr with first-time moms. Back then, with my first doc, we're out within 15 mins.
See, the diff?
So, you'll be on the 12-wk package when u next visit her?
cheezel,
first one only abt 8kg. Depressed lar. My ex-boss, caucasian single women, was very very mean when she found out i was pregnant. Made life so untolerable, I quitted when I was 6 mths. In fact, at abt 5 mths, I lost 1kg with no MS. Quite serious lor. Doc say bb very small, must extra extra take care. sigh...
So yeah, agree with cheetos. Bfeeding is the absolute, No.1 fat-burner. Hb said he remembers reading from somewhere that expressing a full bottle of milk is equivalent to 500calories. Coz our bm is very very full of fats and nutrients.
And for you out there affected by haze. Ok, to take luo-gan guo and chrysanthemum. Just make sure it's the YELLOW chrysnthemum. The WHITE one is too liang. >>knottsy, take care har. Drink more warm water, and take chinese pear (un-refrigerated). May help.

the sugar/ or fructose in these will only worsen your cough.
i tried and tested liao. both pregnancies, once in a while will drink ju hua cha and luo han huo. just moderate. drink liang teh... drink water... balanced liao.

cheezel,
actually, chryansanthemum is not a very cooling herb. On its own, it's only a refreshing drink. And good types has anti-carcinogenic potentials. In moderate amounts, it helps to cleanse our system, not really cool it.
Yes, was told the white one may not be suitable.
But considering, the present climate. it is ok to take it. Key word is to know your own system. If you have a lot of discharge, or having spottings, then don't take it, to avoid complications. But if all's gg well, i dun think it's a hazard.
I'm pretty familiar with this chinese medicinal shop near my house. And they know i'm preggie. So, always tell what can / cannot take. I trust her lor. She's a mother herself.

knottsy,
dunno leh. gotta ask the shop lor. though i was told the yellow type is cheaper. I think to be safe, ownself brew better lar.
Fast one, only abt 20 mins can oredi.
Oh izzit? i tot the consultation charge is if first time or consecutive.
First time on sat, was charged S$88. Second one, also 2 wks later, was charged S$48 for a friday consultation. She asked me to go back coz my ovulation date was delayed for 3 wks, if based on the scan's estimation. She needed to check that the bb is growing at the right rate.
But for the second check, i told the recep no urine stik for me. Coz just did it 2 wks ago. Not that i'm miserly, but it was simply not worth it.
With my last gynae, the urine stik was free.
Dunno how it's like with other gynaes. Mommies, care to share?

hey mommies...
i had terrible nites! Strangely my sickness started ard 8+pm and wld vomit by 12+mn for past 2-3 nites...
do u guys hv the same experience when vomit that it's really uncontrollable, all the stuffs just out by itself? I'm unsure if it's normal, cos I felt as if my eardrums r gg to be exploded, i can even see veins showing visibly at both the temples of my head. Face turned red, quite scary.
I wonder if it's abnormal to have such huge vomit reaction...

cheezel,
sad rite to go thru such a damn ritual ? Pardon my lang. I'm already so half-hearted going thru this pregnancy.
Now I fear for the time to arrive when I feel sick @ the gastric really (the churning feeling) and then afterwhich follow by blockage ard the throat, thats when I know "SHITE! Here it comes again!"
Tried to sleep to forget the feeling oso no use. Drink ginger ale oso no use. Drink apple juice w pinch of lime juice oso no use. Gave up liao.
Appetite during breakfast and lunch is ok, so eat full. Come dinner time, tsk tsk tsk, complete no appetite.
Ppl's been telling me, eat small portion, more meals, so difficult...
Now I truly understand the greatness of Mommies...
