Went for my check up y'day and sign up package. Lucky my oscar results is good. 1:5000 versus 1:280 for my age group. So happy. A big stone out of my heart. But still must do routine blood test to check for rubella, hepatitis B etc.
My gynae say maybe it's boy but can't confirm yet. Haha if it is accurate, seems like May are "baby boys" month. But personally I like gals cos closer to mummy, can go shopping together, share bags, ear rings. Then boys must worry about their NS.

Hi Ah bunny,

I will only be 15 weeks on monday itself so your EDD should be earlier than me
I am so blessed that both my pregnancy I dont have any MS just feeling bloated initially.

hi,
Has anyone been taking bird nest soup or chicken essence?
I am starting to feel tired and can't get out of bed. Husband always has to "pull" me out of bed. My mom told me to drink chicken essence. She also gave me a lot of bird nest and told me to cook it once a week. I think that is too much. Any idea?
Still no idea of sex of baby. Appointment with gynae is next thurs.

Hi Soh,
I've been taking chicken essence all this while cos has been feeling lethargic till now. I take about 2 or 3 times per week. This weekend I'm gonna double boiled the essence with chicken. My mum says is good and delicious too! As for bird nest, I think shd be ok to start now since most of us in 2nd trimester now right?

bean / Jamie,
I think at this stage is still early so it's still speculation. That "extra" something could be hand of the bb too. My friend's bb girl turned out to be boy at birth.
The next stage is the detailed scan to make sure the bb is healthy.
re: birdnest
Yes I have taken the bottle bird nest when I feel like it.
re: wipes
Actually I tink wet cotton wool works better than wipes, unless it's for poo. My conf lady say boiled water with cotton wool is less sensitive on bb's skin. My dd's bum will get red and itchy if I use too many wipes

RE: Yoga
Hi Tiny_m,
Pls count me in for the trial yoga next Tuesday. I have suspended my gym membership since last month and has been feeling very unfit now.
RE: Baby Plus
I was tempted to buy when I know about this, but seems that few people know about this, so I didn't buy in the end.

I just received my purchase of maternity clothes from Old Navy and Gap. I am very happy with all except 1 of my purchase as they send the wrong size to me. They send M size to me. Anyone with M size interested in the pants (Navy colour)? I hope that I can recover my cost of $35 back.
The pants can be viewed as follows:

Hi Jacquise, the shipping for Old Navy is free to anywhere within US. For delivery to Singapore, you can sign up with Vpost. They will provide a US address for Old Navy to ship to and will charge the shipping charge from US to your home.
Actually I did not try the Vpost as my husband asked his colleague to help me bring back from US.

I think you may be charged GST instead of US tax.
You can go to the following website for Vpost shipping charge.

Re: Chicken essence and bird's nest
Can take chicken essence ah? I thought got caffeine cannot take? I don't dare to take yet although I very tempted to cos I love chicken essence a lot! Bird's nest my hubby buy liao my mum haven't cook yet. My aunt said bird's nest take from 5 months onwards and to her, it's not much use cos bird's nest only good for the skin, nothing else. She told my mum more important is to build up the lungs and vital organs so gave my mum a list of chinese herbs for me to take. but all can only take from 5 months on. So now, my mum only cook beancurd skin with ginko nuts on weekends.
Re: BB's gender
Me going for checkup later this evening, hope can get an indication of BB's gender! actually, i watch a documentary before, it says that all BBs have male genital first but then if it's girl girl, the male genital will skrink after some time. so check too early, the results are usually boy boy.
SK: The Cordlife Baby Talk people never call me to confirm my seat leh.. So prob not going for the talk liaoz..
glenlyn: Welcome! Is this your first BB? I have the same symptoms as you leh.. no MS and no cravings, everything also eat. a lot of ppl guess it's boy but when my mum carried me and my sis, she also like that, no MS and no cravings and always eating and sleeping. ahahah.. I think it's genes ba..
I did this old wives tale to guess baby gender quiz before. you all can try for fun!

re: Fish oil
Nordiac Naturals (from luckyvitamin US spree) has prenatal fish oil. But I dun dare eat anything that is not recommended by gynae.
re: cot or playpen
I have used both but prefer playpen. Altho cot are said to be used till 3-4yr old, so far all my friends stopped using at 1 yr old as it become too small by then. And I feel v sim tia when the bb roll around and knock the head on the wooden grills. A friend of mine has an unfortunate experience of her 1+ yr old child who climbed out of the cot and fell to the floor. Pretty traumatic. So for safety sake, I won't use cot once the child can walk. For playpen, if you remove the bassinet, the bb can play inside. It's easier for a bb to climb out of a cot than a playpen.

Hi Tiny
me taking fish oil too.
initially bought 1 pack from gyne clinic, 1 mth supply costed me $58plus..
so thinking if need to eat for 9mths, then will be $59 *6 = $354 *faint*
so i got the following from this website by joining e overseas spree (n i asked e gyne n she confirm can eat).
http://www.vitacost.com/Nordic-Naturals-Prenatal-DHA-from-Purified-Fish-Oil
2 bottles will lasted u 3mths so total only need 4 bottles (2 tablets per intake)..
with shippment n postage only $77.90 so 1 mthonly $25.96.. way cheaper than gyne's.
if u looking elsewhere e contain must have the following:
"DHA at least 300mg, EPA <100mg"
GNC fish oil content is e other way round so not ideal for consumation.

tiny M - no problem.. if u not sure just copy e content n ask yr gyne... my gyne is ok on not buying from her.. think she also know X
Re: cot or playpen
playpen is more "in-depth' will ve a problem to lay them down when they r asleep'.. sure wakes up unless u put mattress inside to 'bring' up e depth (not sure whether u get my meaning)
also long term not good for e mummy's back
do note dat as e child gets older, may lean on 1 side n will e playpen topple over?
cot - can convert e height (there r 3 height to adjust)...
my method now is took 1 side out n 'join' to my bed so can roll in n out... then she dun ve to 'join' us in e middle of e bed cos hers already beside ours with no barrier.. (dat's wat we told her)
if scare they injured themselves on e barrier can buy cot 'barrier' to tie around...
mattress dun works for me cos my ger last time will use her leg n push herself, so even with pillows as barrier she just push herself of e mattress n ended up sleeping on e floor,

Hi,
Been busy.. have not come here for weeks! Hope every is well.
My view on Playpen: there is this thing call basinet which is similar to cot.. However, it can't be used when bb can sit by themselves as it is quite shallow and once, my elder girl fall over.. luckily she fall on the side near my bed!

adv_sports: my hubby not joining leh. i checked with the yoga instructress, she said tues got no hubby joining so my hubby paisei to join. ur hubby can join in if he's interested.
Jen: cos my house are all platform beds so BB can sleep on the mattress between the bed and the wall. no space for it to roll on the floor unless it rolls down the platform bed steps. >.<
