Hi everyone, I'm new to this thread. Previously thought I was due in Aug09 but my gynae told me that my EDD is actually 28 July 2009! Went for my first checkup/scan today, baby is 1.1cm and heartbeat could be seen.
Now wondering if I should go for my holiday (booked long ago) during X'mas. Doc says should be no problem, but my family is quite concerned...

Sunsweet,
I'm going to BKK to attend a friend's graduation (she lives there) then heading (by 3hr train) to Hua Hin for a couple of days before coming home to Singapore. Total length of trip is 6 days. Gynae thinks it should be okay, but since it's my first preg my parents are nagging me not to go.
I don't really have bad MS, just occasional feelings of nausea (esp if I'm hungry!) and sometimes feeling v tired.
If you often feel dizzy, try putting your feet up and rotating your ankles to improve blood circulation to your head. It sometimes helps... Also, rest more if you can.

Re:fruits
Actually i have spoken to my gynae about papaya. She said that papaya is ok to eat, but fruits which is orangy or yellowish in colour, will turn you to look yellowish if you consume too much.. It's the colouring that is making the trick that makes one look like we have jaundice.. So it's better for us to avoid such collouring food no matter we are preggy or not.. The colour change on our body is actually harmless to our body or bb.. But!!!! No matter how harmless it is, still, having overeating of food, will not do our body well too.. So eat in moderate.. Actually, even when bb is born and able to eat semi solid food, we should be feeding our precious one with too much of carrot also.. If bb eat too much, they will turn yellowish.. And i have heard that watermelon that is selling at those cut fruit stall is a no no for preggy as it contains alot of bateria that one preggy may not be able to handle... Just for your references..

Hi sunsweet, take care during your trip, maybe have medicated oil (if you can tahan the smell) on hand in case if you had dizzy spells during the journey.
Sunnyduck, my gynae said that it's ok to travel as long you do not experience any discomfort/bleeding during normal times. I had read it somewhere that it's the pressure if you are taking flight that might affect pregnant women. And also if anything is to happen (Touchwood!), oversea medical help might be hard to come by (usually for those developing countries) and the type of medications they give might be different especially if you have allergies.
Been eating unhealthy food and cold soft drinks these days.. feel so guilty and everytime after meal will have weird taste in my mouth..

I had MS for my first pregnancy till end of second tri.
Cannot drink sugar cane? O O, I have been drinking big time man. For my first, I was more cautious, so only drink cold stuff on and off, but towards the end cannot really be bothered, coz I feel thirsty all the time.
For fruits, I eat everything in moderation. When I ask my gyne about food, he say everything also can drink, just moderation. Dont overeat or undereat.

HBB... really hopes it will get better very soon. nowadays i'm eating a lot of junk food than proper meals. lunch time always eat malay food like mee siam, penang laksa, mee soto. have been a long time since i eat those economical rice with veg n fish. can't stomach those. dinner always cannot finish especially veg. can trigger my nausea very easily. wonder how to provide bb with the proper nutrients.
babyethan
i tink our body got back up nutrients one. dun worry
this is what i know from the nurses in kkh soemwhere earlier this year.
my sis wasnt eating well and worry her breastmilk no nutrients for her boy. but the nurse assured her our body always got back up one. so no worries.
i guess its the same for us bah. cos i ask my gynae if i need multi vit since i cant eat properly.. i can onli take carbo food like porridge n pasta. no vege or meat either. he also say no need.
yes yes i like meeiam now also! but i dund are eat too much cos is care when i puke then heart burn cos its a bit spicy... hehe
we will get thru this tough period soon!!! 3 to 6 weeks more for everyone before 1st tri is over!!!!

Hi MrsC and Sunsweet,
Thanks for the advice and tips about traveling. I think that for now, since I can't get my money back on the tickets/hotel, I probably will still go on the trip, although like you have said, to take it easy and be careful with what I consume. I am still fairly active even in Singapore so I guess I should still be okay in BKK, right? (Hopefully no airport closures though because my gynae visit is the day after I return!)

I had c-sect on the #1, so i really have no idea how it is going to be. My first Gynae said (after my 1st delivery): for #2 i can try v-b, chance are 60% ! I will ask my current Gynae tomorrow when i'm going for the 3rd appt/scan. Kindly of worrying as a lot of ppl said, if #1 is c-, high chance the #2 same. My best friend #1, v-b, #2 c-sect, #3 she managed v-b again
My EDD is 1Jul, not sure it will be earlier, like late Jun or not.
I read a book abt preg, to avoid feet/leg water retention, try not to stand too long during the day, put up your leg when sleeping, not to cross your leg while sitting...i need to change my habit, i always cross leg when sitting.
Sunnyduck:take great care of yourself during the trip ok, hope everything in ok now in BKK

Does anyone know when we should start applying stretch mark creams? I heard from another friend that the earlier you start (before tummy starts growing), the better. Which brands are good? So far I've only heard about Clarins Tonic Oil and Palmer's Cocoa Butter. Would prefer something not too oily or sticky.
Hkbb,
Thanks! Yes, hope BKK won't erupt in chaos again. And I also need to break my habit of crossing legs when I sit!

Hi gals,
I just went for my check-up today. 11wks now. Baby 4.27cm long. Slightly longer than the average as shown in baby center website.
Check out this website for average fetal length and weight chart: http://www.babycenter.com/average-fetal-length-weight-chart
sunnyduck,
You can start applying the stretch mark cream now. I used Palmer's cocoa butter for my #1 but started to hv itchy tummy from 3rd trimester. So this time, I'm switching to Clarins Stretchmark cream. Not oily or sticky. Nice smell. I find Clarins tonic oil a little oily.

Yes, my sis also told me can start applying the stretch marks cream now. She tried Palmer's before and say the effect is quite good.
My 1st gynae strongly advised not to travel during 1st trimester. But I still go ahead and have just came back from HK
You just need to be extra careful on what you eat and dun tire yourself out.
