Hi kit_mum2be
Sorry to hear abt ur previous mc...
I was bleeding quite a bit that's why warded. Got a shock when it happened. Cos with my first kid I only had a bit of spotting and it was ok. but now bled twice already... At first I was so worried I thought I had already mc... but i'm trying to think positive n not worry. Hope everything will be fine with u too! =)

hi angeline,
mebbe it's too early thaat's y can't see hearbeat. When i was first warded the doc did scan n cld only see pregnancy sac. But when I went on Fri can see the fetus and heartbeat cos already 6 weeks. But also can see the bleeding behind the placenta though.
hi hazelnut,
i love sushi tei too! kept thinking of my salmon belly sushi with wasabi during dinner just now! Mmm Mmm Yummy! But cannot eat. Sad... Actually during my first preg, i did succumb to temptation and had sashimi a few times. But that was later on, definitely not first trimester. Too risky and had too poor an appetite to eat anything anyway.
Now starting to get a bit nauseous, though still v mild. Hopefully it'll not be as bad as the first. I hardly ate and when i did it was porrigde and salted egg... Or just plain mee sua with minced pork. MIL was horrified... Hee...Was also lazy to take the multivit that dr gave cos it made me nauseous. But then I consoled myself thinking last time Goh Chok Tong all those old old ministers also fr poor family what, their mother also never take supplements but they still so smart so nevermind lor... But i think I'll still be more careful this time since like that already

Hi kit_mum2be,
i dun have sore nipples at all now and I dun rem it being so in first trim during first preg. But first preg later on i did have but if i dun touch them then i dun feel anything.
Dun worry too much. It seems that every preg will be diff. Think positve thoughts. When I was first 3 mths during first preg I was worried will i mc, will bb be normal etc but after i went this hypnobirthing class, I stopped thinking abt neg thoughts and focused on positive ones instead.
Now of course i still have such thoughts coming into my head but i've devised a few positive statements i keep saying to myself everyday when i lie down to rest:
"My womb is a stable and secure place for my baby to grow"
"My baby feels safe and happy in this peaceful environment"
"My baby develops healthily and normally in my womb"
"My baby feels happy to be in me"
I dun think abt mc anymore and have minimal thoughts abt other neg stuff

Hi ladies,
I'm from the Feb 08 group.
If anyone here has been prescribed a course of Utrogestan 100 mg for deficient progesterone levels, pls let me know. I have half a box of Utrogestan to give away. I was prescribed during my first trim but gynae took me off it after a few weeks.
PM me if keen.

Hi ladies,
Congrats to all upcoming mommies!!!
I also just found out over the weekend that I am 3 weeks preggers!! Was suspecting for the last 1-2 weeks, & bought 2 home test kits to verify (99% accuracy). Quite excited but also anxious, as we weren't really planning for babies...
So anyway, my gyne (Dr WK Tan from TMC) wont see me till after the 8th week...can't wait to confirm my pregnancy for sure. From my calculations, I am due in Sept on the same week as my own Birthday!
Are you ladies feeling any different already? I think I have been sleepier, & hungrier...but no other side effects so far.
Hi kit_mum2be - sorry to hear abt your miscarriage, & take care of your health.

hi jane, i stay punggol too. can tell me where is ur gynae at punggol ? i am 6 weeks plus this week. have not seen any gynae yet cos i thot still early to see anything. only went to GP to confirm positive and get some an tai yao from doctor. can also add me to MSN : [email protected]
Jasmine (piggy_jas) - TMC = Thomson Medical Center. This is also my 1st pregnancy, but I have a gyne already cos we went for pre-natal checkups last year...I am lucky I did, because the gyne found out that I had a fibroid in my womb which I had surgery to remove....
Jane (ja17e): I called for an appnt with TMC yesterday & the nurse said that they only see mommies to be 8 weeks after their last period. I think that is to make sure its not a false alarm. Seems quite similar overseas as well from another US site I came across. I think it is also to wait for the hCG levels (pregnancy hormone) to rise to higher levels, then they can confirm for sure that you are preggers.
Btw - MTBs, a useful site to check out: http://www.babycenter.com/
You can sign up, put in your due date, & the site will tell you every week the size of your foetus (at 3+ weeks, it is a sesame seed!), what changes your body is going thru that week, how much weight u are likely to gain based on your height/weight now, etc etc...there is also a link for baby names selection (and we have chosen ours - one each for a boy & a girl)

Hi all, I was tested +ve last wed too.
I went to see gynae last sat as i had a MC before. Just wanted to be sure.
But only managed to see the water sac and yolk sac.. no sign of fetus..
Did 2 blood tests and the hcg level went up which is a good sign.. hopefully by the appt next sat, I would be able to see something ;-) By then I shd be almost 8weeks..

Hi porky, actually come to think of it, my hb and i now think tat its best to see gynae only after 8wks or so.. its not so depressing lor.
like now, we scanned but cant see the fetus. Dont even know if everything is ok. Can only keep our fingers crossed...

Hi Jane,
I think that is pretty good advice! I was just reading up on incidences of miscarriage online (since it seems that quite a few forumers have encountered it), and basically found out that the occurance of miscarriage during the first trimester cannot be prevented. Apparently it is also very common (50% incidence
), with one of the signs being spotting.
Now I know why people don't usually announce that they are preggers till after 3 months. (The risk of miscarriage falls to just 3% after week 7-10, and when the embryo is about 1cm).
Fingers crossed that we will all have a very safe first few weeks!

hi porky, its entirely up to individual when to see gynae. But i was kiasu and went to see early also partially due to the fact that I had MC once. But now I lagi more gan jeong after the first scan. haa... and I think I am almost like you.Cos according to the scan, I was 5wks6days last friday.
Bigtoes, first trimester is very risky hence pple pantang. But i had to inform those at my work place due to some work commitment and i guess thats how news will spread. keeping fingers and toes crossed..
btw girls, is it normal not to have/ to have implantation bleeding?
