Hi Glynnis,
If your period is due like end of the week, you are only around dpo10. I tried testing and it shows negative around dpo10. Unless your kit are those cost effective ones if not, it is not so advisable
Hi Ezann,
I have friends that gave birth before and their tummy are rather saggy , guess this is the after effect unless you are very active person.

 

[ezann]

Glynnis,
i only have midstream test kits. if u are keen, pm me.
i think u shld still hang on to avoid unnecessary disappointment.

 

[glynnis]

Hi gal

What brand is more effective?

 

[slee16]

Hi all,

stopped communicate in the forum after given birth to my first child.
Just missed my mens for 2 weeks. Last saturday tested positive with pregnancy kit.
Not sure should i visit gynae now or wait for few more weeks. cos contemplating which gynae to go to. My previous gynae is at Camden medical but very far cos i stay at bukit panjang. Got one gynae name Dr. Douglas Ong at Ten Mile Junction at bukit panjang. Anyone know if he is good?

 

[yoji]

Hi Glynnis
I know clear blue is a very reliable one but it will not detect postive if your HCG is lower than 50

 

[glynnis]

Hi gal
Is there any way that I could test my HCG?

 

[yoji]

Hi Glynnis
If you are getting very excited, you can always go to the doctor and request for a blood test. Anything HCG above 10 from the blood test, doctor will inform you that you are preggie.
BTW, how long have you been TTC?

 

[yoji]

Hi Slee16,
Congrats~~~ Are you planning for this #2?

 

[glynnis]

Hi gal

2wks

 

[yoji]

Hi Glynnis,
So this is your first month trying for baby only? no wonder you are so excited.

 

[dylanmummy2003]

Glynnis,
I've some strips type for sales, u interested can PM me.

gal,
for my 1st pregnancy ms, it starts like this...
everyday i'll have dinner @ my mum place, around 9pm, i'll walk back to my own home (very near to my mum's place) once i reach my own home, i will dash to the toilet immed! and all dinner will be vomited out..
after that, i'll just drink some warm water, and after 20mins, i'll start looking for food to snack!

 

[glynnis]

Hi Karen Koh

How many strips do you have?

 

[tami]

Hi ice queen, gal & belle,
Thanks for the encouragement. I am still feeling terrible. 24hrs a day...even when I am sleeping, I feel like vomiting. The worst thing is I can't vomit at all! I sat at the toilet bowl this morning for 10 min yet nothing comes out....the kind of feeling is really terrible. I'm only in week 7. I really cannot see the end of this suffering.

Belle, my gynae did give me some aniti-ms pills but doesn't seem to help. I've tried all sorts of methods like eating crackers, chewing ginger, eating small meals...but nothing helps! I really hope that this quesy feeling will go away soon...I cannot take it anymore

 

[pepper]

Tami,

if the anti-ms pill doesnt help u got to feedback for stronger ones. Usually they will test the milder one first. I totally can empathise with u, i also felt like end of the world during those horrible days of endless nausea and vomitting. Actually the reason why u may not be vomitting is it due to u taking the anti-ms pills? If so maybe u try stopping and see if vomitting actually make u feel better.

Typically the anti-ms pill will make u drowsy so it is unlikely u will feel nausea when in deep sleep. But nevertheless ur case sounds serious. u should feedback to ur gynae.

Have u tried biscuit?

the only positive thing is u are able to keep ur food down so ur body doesn't loose nutrients and liquid. Some people vomit until dehydrated and got to be on drip. That is so much worse.

 

[dylanmummy2003]

Hi Glynnis,
I've about 10~15hpt... i bought it direct from USA website.. now no use liao..

 

[glynnis]

Hi karen,

[glynnis]

Hi gal

[dec_gal]

Hi Bridget,

Mine is like yellow but unsmelly ones but a lot. Making me wonder if it is an infection.

[dec_gal]

Hi Gal, Bridget, Karen

Thanks for welcoming me. Hope you all and other gals in this thread have a smooth 9 months, without MS...

I keep you all updated after I see a gynae this Sat.

 

[biscuit]

gal,
yeah.. i have abs scan a week ago, can only see the sac at week 5.

 

[glynnis]

Hi gal

not really. Just feeling tired.

 

[ezann]

glynnis,
i understand your anxiety because i have a friend like u too. her gynae advised her to take it easy because on average, each couple took around 6-12mths of ttc before success although there are people who strike during the first month.

 

[glynnis]

ezann,
actually the true fact is that im able im unable to coneive.

 

[dylanmummy2003]

anyone faces the same problem as me?
i got lots of pimples outbreak! is this norm?

 

[ezann]

Gylnnis,
why do you feel that way?

karen,
i had pimple outbreak two weeks ago, now not to bad already. i think it's caused by the hormones. have u heard of the saying that if mummy got pimples, means will have girl because mummy 'passed' beauty to baby.

 

[peg76]

dec_gal
welcome!

Glynnis
dun be so negative.

Kare/ezann
I have pimples not on my face but on my back and quite a lot also. so does it mean i am going to have a gal also?

 

[glynnis]

hi ezann & peg_gal

I just have this kind of feeling. I just called athe gynea, he asked me to hop down to have check.

 

[icy_queen]

Hi girls, was wondering is it normal for you all to vomit in the morning and at nite? The moment I wake up and drank a cup of water, I will surely vomit out the water. After dinner before I go to bed, I will surely vomit my dinner out too. I just vomitted the dinner I had at 8plus. This has been going on for 2 weeks and I am now into my 8th week. Really wonder when this will stop....cant take it anymore.....

 

[lovedogs]

hi slee16, dec_gal, belle and biscuit,

congrats to you ladies

hi tami and ice Queen,

i read the way you guys are suffering from MS...so poor thing... can i ask when will the symptoms start? I am in 5 weeks plus and getting abit worried. coz I hate to vomit.

btw, u ladies noticing your tummy and waist getting bigger? I feel i am way too early to be getting fat...but pants and skirts are getting tied and I am really upset

Hello Glynnis,

I tried clear blue 2 days after i missed my menses. the + was immediate...hence I think clearblue should be very accurate....Good Luck gal!

 

[dylanmummy2003]

ezann, peg_gal...
yup yup.. i've heard about that old folk saying...
keeping my finger crossed as i'm hoping for gal!

Icy_queen, this happen to my 1st pregnancy.. and last thru out the 1st 2 trimester!
For the 1st 2 trimester, i did not gain a single weight, infact, i lost 5kg! by the time i'm due, i managed to gain back the 5kg i've lost, and put on another 4kg, so total weight gain is only 4kg, my son is 2.685kg...

 

[slee16]

Hi gal,

This one is unplan. Caught me out of sudden. But, i take it as a blessing. Just that i am not sure if i will be able to be fair..

 

[blue2003]

Hi all,
I just tested postive yesterday with the HPT strips. It's a faint line and today tested again, it is still faint but darker. Wonder if it's really a BFP.

Really hope so. When should I go see a gynae?

 

[icy_queen]

Hi Karen, thing is I still able to eat normally.haha...and I gain 200g in the 2 weeks that I was vomitting. THing is I gets hungry pretty often in the day and will surely have about 5 meals per day. But I take small meals. Cant eat alot each meal either cos stomach will bloat and it will be a terrible feeling aft that. Can anyone advise what did you all do to reduce the vomitting? Hi lovedogs, I start having this symptons from week 5 onwards and I am now into my 8th week. I still managed to wear my office clothes but now tighter.

 

[peg76]

blueblue
welcome. nice to see u here. congrats, remember me? i used to be in the TTC thread. No matter how faint, it is still BFP right. better to see a gynea quick to confirm everything is ok. in the meantime, take good care of yourself.

gal
my mom said that not advisable to take any chinese herbs right now, including pao sheng. chicken essence is ok if feeling too tired. how is your ms?

 

[biscuit]

lovedogs,
yesterday, i went to a scan again... Dr. told me i am in 5 weeks +

may be i am calculating incorrectly. my EDD is MAY 20. my tummy and waist growing horizontally too... uncomfortable when wearing some of the skirts.

peg gal,
wow, so fast know the sex of baby?

blueblue,
congratulations.

glynnnis,
if u are anxious, u can do the blood test, it can detect even if it is low level of hcg.

 

[peg76]

bridget
no lah, we are just hoping....

 

[blue2003]

peg_gal

Thanks....U oso from the TTC thread? I haven decide on the gynae yet. Think u also staying in punggol rite? Hv u decided on ur gynae?

 

[glynnis]

Hi bridget,

I think I would wait till end of the week.

 

[ezann]

Glynnis,
please dun feel that way. it is very important to remain hopeful while ttc. besides, this is only your second cycle. i'm sure there are a lot of people who tried for months or even years without success.
