Hi rachel's mummy,
I am now ard 15 wks and gained about 1-2 kg so far.
My fren who is in her 6th mth now only started gaining wt when she was in her 4th mth. Her MS stopped when she was in her 16th week. I think it is up to individual bah?
Try not to worry ok? Else u will lose more wt!

i think quite a few ppl lose weight in first tri, and then make up for it by gaining more in second or third. So now you are at -3, maybe you will + 10 from now till delivery, then overall + 7 is enough?
carina -
think very good that yr bb is still 3kg when u only gained 5kg! 3kg is normal weight range rite?

My friend's gynae told her we shld not count the weight loss that was lost during the first few months. So for example, our normal weight before pregnant was 50kg. Then due to MS, lost abt 3kg and become 47kg. any weight gain after that shld count from 50 and not 47kg.
Hi all,
dimpletot and carina, thanks for the advice.
diane, the waiter at fish and co. so nice. Take the effort to tell you that the swordfish cannot eat.
My 1st trimester I lost weight but tummy looks bigger. Not sure if it's due to my water retention or pregnancy. Right now I look somewhere between being fat and pregnant. sigh!

aiyoh.... but actually even if they liked you, once the bb comes out, the parents really become secondary, as if not there anymore. that was the experience of my friends...
bb is the most precious to grandparents...
dun worry, at least you have your own place now and your own little nuclear family.

If you got a prior booking, it will be faster, I was asked to join the "Q" at 830 am tdy becos alrd fully booked...
I reach there at 845 am, by the time I finished with everything it's ard 945-10 am le..If you do not have a scheduled appt, best to go early
The scanning takes about 20 mins or so followed by a blood test ard 5 mins..but it's the waiting time in btwn procedures...
The test cost $318 but with the FBI 10% discount, it's ard $287</font>

pinkimum,
Different people have different experience with kk. The most important thing is you need to be comfortable with and have faith in your gynae.
Trace,
I was asked the same question as you by my friend, husband and father. My father asked me,"So what if the result is no good?" I said,"So I'll have to do an amnio." He asked again,"So what if the result shows that it's not normal? Are you going to remove it?" I said,"I don't know." To which he said,"So don't do the blood test."
But like you, I didn't want to keep thinking about the unknown. I would rather be informed than uninformed. Go do la! I think those people in that oscar thread are just the unfortunate few who got no-good result. But in the end, they are also cleared after the amnio test. You look around you. How many people are born abnormal? The percentage is actually very low. Go for the test for peace of mind la, and hold your peace forever.
I was telling my gynae how tired and sick I feel and he said with a laugh,"They always say the more tired the mother is, the healthier the baby."

On the FBI, I'll prob deliver in Mt A, so thinking of not getting it since FBI only applies to TMC (as far as I know). It costs $180 (or $120?) i think, and has 5% discount for gynae package and 10% on delivery and once-off $80 discount for 1 bedder hospital stay i think.
I counted and figured that if I'm not delivering at TMC, not doing OSCARs then not worth it to pay for the FBI card lor....

dimpletot,
You're so fortunate. Hubby volunteered to do all housework. Even when I was spotting, I was still doing all the housework until my thigh muscles hurt for days becos of constant squatting and standing. My husband even told me his friend's wife is a good wife becos she did all the housework even when she's very advanced in her pregnancy.
This morning I asked him,"People's wife got a diamond ring after giving birth to the first child and is looking forward to another gift since she's pregnant again. What am I getting?"

Rain,
Stop the housework if you have all these spotting! In fact stop those housework..it's not good for you!
Each pregnancy is diff, hw can compare with another preggie woman? If your hubby wants the baby, then he shld b responsible to assist u in the housework..instead of asking you to do it..
do take care of your own health and yr baby! dun tired yourself with all these housework..your baby will not b happy if u tires yrself out..

but i wash my own toilet and clothes. So now, hubby doing for me...Rains,
wah your hubby quite mcp leh... I will get some of my gfs who know him well to knock some sense into him if i were you... even if my hubby gave me a big diamond ring i wouldn't put bb at risk by doing too much housework lor...
sometimes singaporean men think they are living in the past. or in another country.
another idea: get your gynae to scold him!

Morning Mummies,
Dimpletots, you are welcome. Never mind about the postage fees. Next time we go la kopi then u blanjah me can liao.
Keke! I cannot take enfamama, cos once consume will start running to toilet and be a "merlion"
Juz_me, i think it is great for your mum to acc you to the gynae. During my first preggy, my DH always acc me but now due to his heavy workload and often O/S, he only went once with me. My mum is always busy with her stuff.
Mummies, anyone of you still having MS now? Think recent this week, my MS had been getting from bad to worst... even the maxalon also cannot control it. Eat what, 15 mins later will throw out. Peppermint tea also dun help. Having bad giddy spell too... Any ideas what else can help?

Try taking smaller mouthfuls/meals instead, avoid oily/spicy stuff or anything that might trigger the MS. Have some plain crackers or drink some camomile tea, it should help ease the MS</font>
