Dear Millie,
Dont worry too much. You are still ok now, means is fine for you. Just dont take any bu ping during 1st trimester will do. For now, you should ask the chinese doctor what should you take if you want to. However, usually gynea not encourage to take too many chinese herb. We shouldnt let the bb to big, diff to deliver.

for detailed scan my gynae say dun have to go so early, ideally 21-23wks. coz go too early some of the baby organs/features may not be so developed yet. dun have to book appt tat early.. no worry if u have not booked. i have not book yet too. he said can wait till 20wk checkup then book.
actually not a must to take birdnest. heard if take must take v frequent (say twice a wk) then bb skin can be v nice. else if take ad hoc kind like not much effect. last time our parents din take birdnest n we turn out ok too.

hi little twin stars,
dr ho got say leh... no sharkfins, no raw/half- cooked food. for this time round, he tell me no sharkfins, i was quite surprised as for #1, he did not say no sharkfins. i asked him, he say no sharkfins, cos afraid of the high mercury level.
birdnest
=======
oh yah, i got heard, birdnest cant take too much also, afraid that baby will have phlegm. but if i remember correctly, the fu hua lady was saying dun put in too much rock sugar.

Hi #1mummies,
When I am 10th week, he alredy say eat what I want to eat, eg birdnest. Yeah, is very exp. But nvm, just to pamper myself.
Less sweet is good for mummy but afraid of fishy so some rock sugar. Anyway, only twice a week and is not a big bowl, so should be ok.
No matter how, cook frm birdnest pcs is always more fresh than bottle type.

aiyah i'm going for the TMC antenatal class. Cannot c u all...
Btw, when does your class at Mt.A starts ar?
for me i just told them my EDD and I want a weekend class, and they told me to attend the one that starts on 3rd May. I calculated, by then I would be nearly 27weeks. Is it late ar?
But I heard also best not to go too early coz you will forget the lessons by the time give birth.

mulberry, I thot TMC class can start as early as 16weeks dats wat i read when i m deciding on where to go for class. My fren go TMC one also went at 16 weeks like dat. For Mt A classes start at 24weeks, so both twin & I taking 2 May class by then is my 27 weeks coz if take early apr class I am onli 23 weeks.
hi little twin star,
that sweet of your friend. actually, no need dr ho tell me what not to eat, my mum already got a long list for me on what i cant eat.
as for the 4d scan, are you referring to for the detailed scan? sorry, this I cant help u. cos my detailed scan at 20 wks one will need to be done by another gynae at Mt E. not that dr ho is not a pro or the technique to do it, it's that my neruo has requested for it.

no wor, TMC where got so early. In the website and the brochure, they wrote there: <u>to book</u> when is 20weeks. So logically must be after 20weeks lor, since they ask only to book when on 20weeks.
But coz I want Mrs.Wong's class, so I book early lor.
wah ur fren went when she's 16weeks. She can still remember when she gave birth?
oh so u also will be 27weeks when u attend.
Me (to be exact) will be 26weeks 4days. I hope I will still have energy by then coz it's nearing 3rd trimester liao.

Rata, Twin Stars, Krex & Mulberry,
For 1st time mommies, I will strongly encourage you to attend the anenatal class coz they teach you on the breathing techniques which I think greatly help when you are controlling the pain during birth...I controlled until the nurse ask me whether I want epidural but at that time, I can still tolerate the pain.
Mulberry,
I attended Mrs Wong's class the last time and it was GOOD!

Anenatal class
===============
ok, this is my personal experience. for #1 mummies, it's gd to go and learn about how the delivery process and the breathing techniques all that. Sister Kang, who conduct the class is good. i have attended for my #1 but hor, when the real action start, i forgotten all about the breathing techniques. it's actually Mt A midwives who telling my hb and me what to do, for eg, telling my hb to massage my back and for me, how to breathe/push. the Mt A midwives/nurses are v encouraging, keep telling me that i can do it...

Rata,
When I 1st attended anenatal class in 2003, I think it was just abt 10-12 couples per class...now so many liao.
Mulberry,
I can't really rbr how many weeks m I when I joined the anenatal class but shd be after 20weeks...true, like what Krex mentioned, if tummy too big liao, might be difficult to do some of the exercises.
Twin Stars,
Hahaha, I was breathing away controlling the pain then nurse asked me whether want epi or not, so I asked her when is the best time for that, she said no right timing 1 but her advice is with epi, mommy can relax and cervix will dilate faster and true enuf, after the epi, I can relax and very fast, bb head down and ready to push liao...heehee

Re: Anenatal class

twin star/rat,
