my EDD is end june / early july. went to see my gynae last week and he said still very early. only can see the water bag.
this is my first pregnancy and feel quite uncomfortable. nauseous and tired all the times, plus panicky.

<font color="0077aa">Here's some common pregnancy problems:
Often pregnancy brings with it some of these troublesome conditions. Here are some of the more common pregnancy problems and how to deal with them.</font>
<font color="ff0000">Anaemia</font>: If you find yourself tiring easily, chances are that you are anaemic. Apart from the iron pills from your doctor, eat plenty of green vegetables, lean red meat, dried fruits and nuts as a natural source of iron. Iron supplements may cause constipation
<font color="ff0000">Backache</font>: Sleep on a firm mattress. Maintain good posture standing straight and not slouching when sitting. Keep to low-heeled shoes to avoid adding further strain to your back.
<font color="ff0000">Morning sickness</font>: Take smaller meals instead of three big ones. Nibble on plain biscuits when you are feeling hungry. Try some ginger or ginger ale which is supposed to quell the nausea. Avoid spicy foods and strong smells.
<font color="ff0000">Frequent urination</font>: Your baby is pressing on your bladder causing frequent urination. At night, lessen your fluid intake so that your sleep will not be broken by trips to the loo.
<font color="ff0000">Breathlessness</font>: Your uterus pushes up the diaghragm and your lungs have less room to expand fully. You find yourself becoming more breathless because of this. To help you breathe better when lying down, prop yourself up with pillows to raise your head and shoulders.
<font color="ff0000">Constipation</font>: Pregnancy hormones relax the gut, so food passes through the system more slowly. To help your bowel movements going, eat more fibre, get plenty of fluids and do some light exercise going for a stroll after dinner.
<font color="ff0000">Cramps</font>: You may find yourself experiencing cramps in your legs or feet. Calcium tablets may help. Or include a little more salt to your diet but check with your doctor before you do this.
<font color="ff0000">Fainting</font>: Many women get fainting spells especially in the first trimester because of the poorer blood circulation to the brain because of the increased progesterone. You can help yourself by moving your legs to keep the blood flowing. When seated or lying down, and you need to get up do so slowly.
<font color="ff0000">Haemorrhoids/piles</font>: These can be made worse if you constipate. Labour often aggravates them. Most times, they should subside after you have given birth. If not, let your doctor know and he may prescribe suppositories or ointment to shrink them. To help yourself, drink more water and include more fibre in your diet.
<font color="ff0000">Heartburn</font>: Because of the baby pushing on your stomach, this may cause the digestive juices from the stomach to back up into your throat area, causing heartburn. Tell your doctor if it gets unbearable. He may prescribe you drugs to safely prevent it. For some people, drinking a glass of milk helps prevent it.
<font color="ff0000">Water retention</font>: You may find your ankles, feet and hands becoming very swollen. This is caused by water retention. You can try to minimise this by reducing your salt intake and putting your feet up whenever you get the chance.
<font color="ff0000">Rashes</font>: Some pregnant find themselves getting rashes especially under the breast and in the groin area. Avoid tight fitting clothes and go for cotton underwear.
<font color="ff0000">Tiredness</font>: This is normal, especially in the first and last trimester. Try to get at least eight hours of sleep every night, and if possible, take a nap during the day.

hihi mummies
i m having my second kid. shd also be due in Jul 08. congrats to all the mummies here.
ling
u shd be abt 5 or 6 weeks? can count the number of weeks from your last menstrual period. at 4-5 weeks, may not be able to hear heartbeat. shd be able to hear from 6-7 weeks. when i had my first one, i went to see gynae at 4 weeks. din even do scan cos cannot see anything. then at 5 weeks i had a bit of bleeding. gynae tried to scan but no heartbeat detected. we got so scared and in the end do blood test to confirm the pregnancy. so if u can't see anything or hear heartbeat in early pregnancy, it is quite common. just make sure u take your supplements like folic acid , prenatal vitamins etc
missmissy
the symptoms u have are quite natural. if u keep feeling bloated, u can ask your gynae for some antacids to relieve the gas. eat small and frequent meals. usually bloatedness leads to naseau. u can keep some plain crackers with u. if feeling hungry just eat a bit.
this time round, i have problems sleeping. can't sleep at night. feel so tired but still can't sleep.

Hi there! Really glad to see that actually there are quite a number of ladies that share the same delivery month as me.
I am in my 5th week and will be visiting the gynae next Thu with my husband, hopefully can hear heartbeat coz he will be away for abt 3 months to US.
Crossing my fingers now.

my gynae refer me to SGH national heart centre to verfiy whether i have the strenght to natural birth or not... because when i was young i got heart problem ... its happen when my gynae listen to my heart yest and found that my heart beat still abnormal.. hope everything will be fine...
hi all,
Nice to see you gals here.
I'm a mother of two now. My 2nd one is only 9 months old.
I have tested positive just this Monday when i missed my menses for ard 6-7 days.
Its really totally unexpected as me and hb is not planning for 3rd one and we thought that it was a safe period when we did it.
I didnt believe the result so i re-test again on Thurs and the result is the same.
But the thing is, i'm not experiencing any other symptoms except for the missed menses. there's no sore breast, change in appetite, etc. I just felt so normal.
I'm also worried becos of this. As my 2nd pregnancy, it was a miscarriage as there is no hearbeat detected till the 8th week. So im afraid that it may be the same case for this. Though its an unexpected pregnancy, i still hope that i wont have to go thru that experience again.
I should be in my 5th-6th wk now. Planning to see gynae maybe the week after next cos i also scared seeing gynae actually.

Ladies,
I got a question. My last mense is on 29 Sept. My cycle is irregular around 30-32 days but i remember clearly that i only BD on 19th Oct. Yeah, its only one day in that month due to my bad cough.
I think my ovulation is delayed for one week. So that will make me how many weeks now?

hope your 3rd pregnancy will be a smooth one. i also seeing my gynae only in my 6th week cos see too early also now use.
the number of weeks is always counted from the last menstrual period regardless of when u BD. not very accurate and not really reflective of the gestation period but that is the definition. so u r abt 6-7 weeks?
ling
so u r earlier than me.
my last mense date is 3rd Oct.
did u test yourself positive? how come doc said your mense is late cos of stress?

hi cheryl,
i was hoping to estimate the no. of weeks im in now so i can gauge when to see doctor. partly, dont want to go too early and then detect no heartbeat and have to wait for another 2 weeks again. I think the wait is quite torturing.
i had just made an appt to see my gynae this thurs. wondering if it is too soon??
how do u know that your ovulation is 1 month late?

Hi Miracle, I'm not a July MTB but a June MTB. Hope you dun mind me gatecrashing this thread. I saw your query and think I may have an answer to your question.
You are probably 6 weeks (4 weeks gestational age) this Thursday. But not everyone can detect heartbeat at 6 weeks. At 8 weeks, heartbeat can almost certainly be detected though. If you are anxious, you may just want to try your luck this Thursday. Even if you dun see a heart beat, you can definately see a sac. I went for my first scan at 4 weeks 6 days (about 3 weeks gestational age) and only saw a sac. I'm going for a scan tomorrow as it will be 8 weeks to detect heart beat.

Hi cactus, thanks so much for your answer. I think I may also be in 6th week only now.
Yes, though this is not my 1st pregnancy, i think I'm stil abit gan cheong about it.
So maybe i should not go for the gynae visit this thurs afterall? Maybe i should go next Thurs or Friday to see whether can detect the heartbeat or not?
Are you nervous about your appt tomorrow? Is this your 1st pregnancy?

Hi miracle,
Yes, it's my 1st pregnancy. I'm not very anxious cos it was an unplanned pregnancy and hb and I weren't trying actually. baby was made during our honeymoon... so strike jackpot on first cycle apparently.
I had to go for a 4 week 6 day scan cos doctor suspected ectopic pregnancy and only wanted to see the placement of the sac. It was a GP referral to KKH A&E. I not eager but would be more relieved to see heartbeat tomorrow. Am keeping fingers crossed that things will be fine.
I've been experiencing heartburn at night, and tender swollen breasts (since week 3 - gestational age week 1) and nausea (since week 6). I've had a problem with too much gas since week 3 but that has gone away since week 7.

for me, i dun mind seeing gynae early cos i just want to have peace of mind. hee, though i know seeing early may not be able to hear heartbeat. also can get all the nec supplements and hormones if needed.
cactus
yeah, miracle is right. that's why morning sickness etc may not be a bad thing. it means there's pregnancy hormones.
ling
so strange that even though u tested positive, the doc syas your mense is late cos of stress and not pregnancy?

yeah i do feel cramps on the stomach. the uterus is expanding so it is normal to feel a bit of cramps or like aching. but it shouldn't be too long or too painful. be careful if u have bleeding.
think by the time u see gynae on 21 nov u shd be able to detect the heartbeat.

hi all... i tk m also due in July. 2nd child. 1st child is going to be 2 years old next week. Went for a check up at Gleneagles yesterday, 12 nov. Doc said abt 5 weeks 6 days old but i tk it is less tho. Anyway, will confirm next scan on the 10 Dec.
M now taking folic, iron (in morning) and calcium (at nite). M still nursing my 1st child.. hope to be able to nurse thu preg thu meeting resistance from gynae and people around me. So will see how it goes.... a bit hard to wean off coz my daughter is more addicted to my beasts rather than for milk.
Not much appetite. Tummy always feels funny.. prob coz i feel very nauseous...
now wif 2nd kid.. can't give as much attention to preg as the 1st one.. feel kindof bad and guilty... i need MORE SLEEP!!!! arrrrgghhhh...

my last menstrual is around 17 Sept, so i shld be 9 weeks but i'm pretty sure my fertile period was on the 4th oct when me and hb tried for baby (my husband is working in msia, so that's the only time we tried). so how many mths am i now?
thanks.

Since my husband will be away for 3 mths and we are newly-weds, i have already told my MIL that i will be going back to stay with my mom.
I am in my 6th week now. Other than tender breasts, don't experience any morning sickness for now.
Will be going to the gynae this Thu.
Really want to hear the heart-beat during this visit. Praying hard now.
