Have been skipping my beauty routine since most of mine r under whitening range.
Heard preggie cannot use whitening, anti-aging, AHA, BHA etc stuff coz they may cause defects in bb, so scary & I have stopped since.
But I need to get some day & night moisturizer, any idea what brand & product can we use?

I also used to use dermalogica... very exp leh! now using up whatever i have left (medicated clearing gel, oil free moisturiser, sun block, skin renewal lotion - really got 'persuaded' into buying a lot from my previous facial place) and shifting to cheaper line like loreal...
I just asked my friend. Her gyane gave her folci all the way till pregnancy is over leh. Actually no harm continuing with it right? Excess would just be excreted out via urine. I think i will continue to take since its just a small little pill. Not difficult to swallow.

Hi ladies,
I am feeling so exited, going for my first check-up back home here tomorrow morning. Should be going to 10weeks.
mummylove,
I drank fresh milk this morning and just had diarrhea. Now thinking if I should continue drinking milk else not enough calcium right.

Though you were not asking me, but I am also a Divine bride. Hehe...

Yeeks, my cleanser is from Loreal and has slight BHA in it. I thought it's ok since the cleanser is on my face for no more than a minute. How how?
Hmm, I think on the safe side, it's better to switch to natural brands like Jurlique? Maybe I'll just get a cleanser and moisturizer from there, just for this period.

I am still wearing low heels, like kitten heels...
but thinking of buying more flats. I only have one pair of casual ballet flats...
the other day i was in a supermarket and had a fall... landed on hands and knees. cos in slightly higher open toed heels, and floor was slippery (but no sign). thank God bb not affected when i had scan the next day. Doc Wong says no worries, bb very well cushioned inside.
these days i walk very slow.

Hi dimpletots - Yupz I'm with Dr Joycelyn Wong too =) And my hubby will be joining me in Europe, he worried so took leave =) Yah, you can travel long distance in 2nd trimester already, Dr Wong said just don't make yourself too tired.
Hi all mummies - I'm still wearing heels (pointy toes ones somemore) but I'm trying to wear more flats too. But somehow heels look more professional at work... and during presentations and meetings.

Hi mummies,
I am feeling super bloated, like stomach gona burst kind. Any immediate remedy?
Karen,
Thanks for the suggestion. Is eating those nasi lemak ikan bilis the same? And what is water beancurd? Think I will try to eat more cheese
dimpletot,
My wedding was long long ago dec 2005. My designer was Kim and MUA was Freddy. And yes, I still have fond memories of the whole process and I bought my WG. Hehe.
Shoes,
Nowadays I wear mostly flats. I wore my new adidas maryjane today and its very comfortable.
JJmom2008,
I also have butter legs and I can just trip even on non-wet, flat ground. haha...
The only heels I wear now are probably 1-2inches, broad heels kind.
Today I tried on a maternity jeans but I find it too baggy and not nice. But I can't fit into my usual jeans now. Don't know how.

Hi Rachel mummy: I am wearing ballet flats everyday now, don't dare to wear heels cos I tend to walk very fast so wearing flats more safe...
Pinkimum: the maternity jeans I bought from ON also very big for me even though I bought size S. Now its hanging in my wardrobe...

Good morning mummies
Went for my checkup yesterday. During the checkup last week, the scan show my bb is 12w1d at 4.7cm but then yesterday when doc scanned for me, the bb is still at 12w2d and grow only by 0.2cm only. Was quite worried but doc said the bb is growing well and scheduled my next appt on 19 Apr. Was a bit gan chiong and asked doc when i can know the gender of my bb, he mentioned maybe in another 5 weeks time
. It's going to be another long wait again. Really envy those mummies who can know the bb gender at a early stage.

Pinkimum,
Me too always bloated and when I was at gynae he prescribe me Gaviscon. I usually throw up if it gets really bad. Not sure if you have the same experience.
Wanted to ask is everyone required to take the NT or OScar scan? And at which week cos I am in my 11 week and he did not mentioned any scan. Next appt is end of Apr. Getting a bit worried if I missed anything. Sorry 1st time mum not sure what the diff scans are.

Dimpletots, I think I start shopping after my fetal assessment @20 weeks. Now still a bit too early ba? keke! Doc Wong was hoping that I can have 1 boy and 1 girl too. She also mentioned now I looked like a 4 mth preggie woman... meaning, tummy big.
Diane, yah they are "swimming" in the waterbag and my gynae even capture one picture for me whereby the twins are facing each other and wriggling even though they are in different sac. I see those pills make me wanna "puke". First preggie also never take so many pills at one shot. Gynae did mentioned to me that my babies will arrive ard week 35 to 36.
JJmom, haha! Cute to have twins but suffer like hell having twins. I cannot sleep well everynight, back ache, pelvis bone pain, back pain etc...

<font color="ff6000">Mousebb,
don't worry. if your gynae says it's ok, must trust him.
Lili,
Is it better to buy maternity underwear from maternity shops? more variety is it? was thinking of going robinsons that kind to buy, cos have vouchers.
Karen,
Yup it was freddy the MUA who passed away last yr. quite sudden and he was quite young. my friend also had him as MUA and she was quite shocked.
Val,
It's not compulsory to take the NT and OSCAR scans. Better for high risk ppl (above 35) to take, but if you intend to keep the baby no matter what, then can save the money and don't take the tests too.</font>

Good morning all Oct mommies!
Mousebb,
Dun worry too much, since the Dr say its ok. Sometimes they measure wrongly or cant take proper measurement due to bb's position. Which is why the EDD date kept changing - sometimes ealier, sometimes later due to bb sometimes measured to be bigger, sometimes smaller.
