hi juliet,
me is with fitness first too. Fitness first allow freezing and without any charge for pregnancy reason. Yest i just went to the club counter and get their application form for freezing membership. Just get a letter from gynae and attach with yr form, submit to counter can ored. or else u pay yr membership for nothing.
I heard that California does not allow freezing even if pregnant, so tats why i cancel my california and took up fitness first.

Crystal, I dun think you are pre-natal depression lar, just that you have your own thinking and you dun like the way your mil environment is like, thus, at this moment you are just lost. You just have to take some time to sit down and plan for a best solution. If really you find there too noisy, please, spend a bit more to get CL and make yourself rest more at ease at home. You cannot rest well one with too many pple at home. Just talk to your hb first and tell him the pros and cons, I am sure he will help you. You have to stress, confinement time is for resting, not listen to noisy sounds.
Ellysia,
I am sure you will be fine. I am thinking, it also may due to that, that time I was taking extrim tablets to slim down, and the side effect affected my son. My son's birth is a surprised one, so I didn't tell many pple I took extrim. if they know, they will also say this is the culprit, and not bed. Or it can be all fated.
My hb has share account with MIL, not me. Since young they share liao. Bcoz they share one account already, he doesn't want to open one with me. Anyway, its not him and my mother lar, hee, won't it look funny if he share account with my own mum? hehee.

Veniz,
Srry i meant yr hb share acct with yr MIL.. not mum. typo.
How come u never ask yr hb to open another acct with u. His salary shd belongs to himself or share with u, not share with his mum after marriage. This means harder financial planning for family next time cos MIL can draw any money out and lead to quarrels over $$. Then when u have more kids then kids education etc how.. its gonna be v messy.
My hb and me have a joint acct but we use tat to pay renovation loan, in future if finish paying loan we may use tat as savings for kid or other things.

hi gers, m going off for the day...ciao & have a nice wkend everyone! C ya on Mon!!!
nope le, juliet, I still here, heehee.
Ellysia, you so funny, where got gorilla, dun anyhow say this word 'the 'g' and 'm' group of animals' cannot say out loud infront of your elders, they don't like it. Also, dun buy any such figurings and/or soft toys of this group animals, sure get nagged one. Get the idea?
I argued with him before on bank account issues, coz i like to spend without thinking, so he scare to have a joint one with me. anyway, let him be, i am trying to be independant. So if my mil is really nasty and take away the money, i leave it to fate. I am sure she will not be so bad, as now, she is looking after my son, i just give her $500.00/mth, she never complains and even buy the milk powder for him to drink at her place. She is nto bad, only a bit like want to act high class, that's all.
I also freeze my gym membership at this all ladies gym, fitnesswerkz. But I yet to produce my gynae letter to them.

juliet,
I agree with u.. i oso dun like this kind of arrangement, like money being ctr.
My hb must go back every weekend to visit his mum cos his mum will complain if he never go visit. Sometimes i go with him, sometimes not. usu fornight i visit them. My mum insist to visit me every weekend also, so i complain hb also cannot too loud. End up i dun have a weekend to ourselves.. sianz.

Krispy, ya, i take mrt. I will take mrt with my 3yrs son to clementi, take feeder bus to my mil hse nearby coffeeshop, have breakfast, pass son to her, then walk 5-10mins to another bus stop to take bus to work. heehee, like that, 1 hour gone. I no fate with harbourfront and cbd area jobs one, cannot get them, maybe i too kampong type liao.
Ellysia, he has another personal bank account, but only for paying bills. His salary goes into the joint account lor. But he will on off transfer some $$ over to his personal one.
Actually we should visit parents or inlaws almost everyweek, but dun stay there for like whole day lar, sure sianz one. If i go inlaw hse during weekends, i sure stay in my previous own room (coz my old bed and some stuff still there, they insist the room to be left as it is so we can come back rest). I also seldom go back own mum hse as she normally works on weekends.

Hi ladies
You ladies are 'terrible'... 200 over postings in one day... had to spent 2 hours to finish all... But all quite informative and interesting... I got alot of questions to ask and answer too...but my workplace dun have internet so cannot join you all...can only join you all at nite else we will have 300 over postings liao...haa
Do we have to apply stretch mark creams now meh? I thought its like stomach bigger maybe abt 4 months then apply...
I see that alot of ladies here are prescribed duphaston...my gynae gave me turinal instead...also to stable the bb...dunno why the difference...maybe turinal much cheaper, my gynae wants to save cost...haa
Anyone of you seeing the gynae every weeks? I see him every 1 week since i knew i was pregnant at 4 weeks... and he gave me ultrasound and injection everytime...maybe its becos of my previous MC... but dunno whether too much ultrascan will affect the bb or not... need to spend almost $100 each time i visit him...abit siong...
Another question i want to ask is does your hubby accompany you to see the gynae? Everytime i went to the clinic is usually couples...but i always go alone...no choice cos my hubby needs to man his car audio shop... but sometimes abit sad that he's unable to share the joy with me and see how the foetus is growing... he also didn't get to see the bb's heartbeat with me... sigh...
Will be visiting my gynae on monday again.. hope to see the bb growing...
Hi Roxy
Nice to see you here again... wonder if you still remember me?

Juliet, I can understand your thinking. But then, my mil pays for hubby's oversea studies and he is the only son, so its ok. Also, my hb very mcp one, ask him draw out monthly allowance give his parents he also lazy, so he told her if she needed $$, just go atm press. My fil working, so still ok.

I just had a bath and realise my pimples all on chest and near breasts, all red red ones. First time like that. So far face and nose still intact, no changes.

veniz - haha.. if lots of pimples sure boy?? no la.. I didn't have any but I had a boy. 
Good to apply stretch mark cream early.. but it will only help a bit, coz' it's genetic. But for peace of mind I still apply religiously...

Morning Mummies-To-Be
Was out of action these few days due to very bad MS. Vomit till throat vessels burst and blood came out
Went to visit Dr Wong yesterday, my little one at 6 weeks 2 days is 3.7mm
She gave me Metoclopromide Sup to stuff into my rectal, hopes it helps.
Any mummies got any good stretch mark cream to recommend ?

mogudog - Dr Wong recommends a very good stretch mark cream which can be bought from ACJ. I used it for my first baby religiously and I didn't have any stretch marks. Take care!
Morning Gals,
Starmoon, ya, hope you get a boy. Rem to survey your face everyday during first trimster. Such as many pimples, face shape change a bit and nose become big. Then, maybe you will have the boy. After this child, I also going to close factory liao, no matter its gal or boy, hee.
Salmonfish, Wow, no pimples your first preg huh? So good, but hor, did your nose look a big bigger than usual? I just curious, coz everyone around tells me the above symtoms I stated to starmoon means most probably boy. Wat is the stretch mark cream brand and wat's ACJ? I used clarins oil before, still got a bit stretch marks. Now I am not using any at the moment.
Feifei and Ellysia, I also interested to know where is perfect mom? need to get pants to standby already.

hi ladies,
I just got back my blood test results and I'm low on progesterone. Was asked to increased my Utrogestan pills to 2 pills 3 times a day instead of 1 pill 3 times a day. Hcg readings are approx 3,600. Doctor said the sac looks around 5 weeks although according to the calculations, should be around 6 weeks. Might be due to my longer menstrual cycle of 32 days though. So am keeping fingers crossed. Will be taking my next blood test this coming Monday.

verniz - first pregnancy no pimples, no big nose, perfect with no MS, backaches, cramps, cravings etc. I really enjoyed my pregnancy. And it was a BOY! He's such a darling, even now.
Some people say if you are expecting a girl, then you will have pimples and big nose etc coz' the girl "sucks" all your beauty! haha.. all these myths.. anyway, nothing is for real until we see the gender on the scan! ;-)
btw ACJ is the clinic I visit in TMC.
