Ladies,

But 1 sad news for me is that i think i sure kena gestational diabetes again for this round. Just now when i test with the strip, it changed to a slightly darker colour. I asked the recep if that means i have high sugar level, she said ya, not very high, but higher than normal. Sheeesh .... I remembered last pregnancy my test strip turned brown colour, which means quite high level leh. So that means i must start to cut down on sugar le .... sad ...

pinkmama,
I just got back my oscar/ NT report and it says the NT measurement is 2.2mm, Trisomy 21 is 1:6590, and Trisomy 13/18 is 1:1252. Not sure what these numbers say but my gynae cleared me leh.

smurfy

babys
what is braving natas fair?

Jul
so far i only visited him twice. We were like kanjiong when we test that I am pregnant using the test kit, then found the nearest gynae available. Thats when I was 10 weeks 4 days!! Then the next time was after OSCAR test, had to go to him for the result. He dont even explain much to us about the result lor. Just say that the possibility to get D/S is like 0.
 
Jul,
The blue one is for sugar, while the yellow one is for protein. Only the blue one turned colour. This time round, i think i even gotta cut down my intake of carbo le.

Really sian leh ....
 
<font color="aa00aa">Reira</font>, over here, they have a HD Flat TV screen attached on the wall, so every one can see. Very clear somemore for U/S, even my ds can tell.

<font color="0000ff">Jul</font>, I also want to eat hokkien prawn noodle
 
reira

reira

Oic. I more kancheong than u. I tested positive at week4, &amp; saw gynae at soonest possible date of week6. Cudn't see heartbeat by tummy scan, so I did a V scan.

Next appt was supposed to be at week9, but b/c of spotting, I had to add in a visit at week 7.5 too. All in all, I've seen gynae 4 times liao!
 
pegsfur, your bb must be very active doing acrobats. were you a gymnast or ballet dancer before ?

I believe most of us have to watch our sugar levels, can't eat too much durians now ...
 
pegsfur, did u drink something sweet b4 peeing?

wah, brown is quite high.. maybe u cut down now lor... did ur dr say anything about it?


reira, means i am going to be brave and going to 'fight' with the natas crowd.. hahah..
 
pegsfur

Oic. Haha I also nvr ask what they are testing for. The recep will gimme the strip, then I just pee &amp; return to them. Also nvr ask.
 
hi mummies,
"B","STRETCH MARK CREAM:"
what brand of stretch mark cream u all using huh?
any recommends..
"B","PILLS:"
N0w my gyne only asking me to take multi-vit +[Dhaxtra]Fish oil[DHA]optional.
Also say i jus need these 2 till delivery.
I'm quite blur,cause seems like some mummies also taking iron,calcium,vits etc..
 
joeey
haha yah!!! so far. sit in the mrt till i can faint/vomit ah! and yeah, i finished the fish! so yummy~

pegsfur
:D Yay! when is ur next appointment with Dr Wong? What do you think about her? I read online, a lots of positive comment about Dr Wong. Atleast she definately won't be like the siao gynae i saw before lor.

Pris
Yeah! I've seen one of the ultrasound procedure in USA from babycenter!! So good!

smurfy
Not very nice if I say the name leh. haha thats the only gynae i can find in jurong west area. besides foodcourt de.

Jul
At week 6, i tested and see 1 clear blue and 1 very faint blue line lor. but my hubby insist he only see one blue line. Then I wait till one month later, find it weird no menses yet and bought another 2 test kits!! lol now i got 1 extra test kit at home! T_T

pegsfur
I have to cut down carbo also cos mine tested high sugar level. T_T sianz... cant drink bubble tea
 
babyjon

I was using Clarins oil. But b/c I have rashes, my gynae gave me this moisturiser &amp; asked me to stop using the oil for a while till the rashes go away.

As for pills. I think it depends on individual's situation. I mean, if u are getting enough iron &amp; calcium, then no pt taking right? Taking too much supplements isn;t gd for ur liver &amp; kidney, I feel.
 
reira
agree with Babys.. most docs will say your bb is at very low risk of DS.. they will not commit as oscar is statistical numbers and not a diagoistic test.

my gynae even add on "ur bb is on very very low risk of DS... but it still does not mean ur bb cannot get it" <- crude but true
 
joey /Babys
i tot it's carebears shine??? :x

reira
it's alright to share the name out.. most will like to know and avoid in future.. :p
 
babyjon, i use ginvera olive oil and palmers' stretch mark cream. For pills, i'm taking prenatal vitamins, iron and calcium tablets - 3 a day.
 
smurfy,
nice colour, i'm thinking of pastel lime green &amp; lilac for my nursery...carebears is cute, and very colourful, my SIL also into carebears.

earlier i posted some links for wall decor, i like the traditional type...colourful alphabets and numbers, white furniture and NO cartoon characters...too commercialised. hehe

baby s,
still thinking of natas fair har?...just be careful lor..get hubby to protect, pave the way for you..natas fair, pple very KS.

for those not planning to go, can check out www.family.sg, there's some details about the fair...will prob go to check out the magazine subscription as well as 'new innovations'. usually this kind of fair, got new stuff to see.
 
joeey, both also have!! hee....

babyjon, i use the galenic.. i dunno if it works or not, cos i not consistent in using.
 
joeey,
Hahaha .. no lah .. i wasn't a gymnast or ballet dancer, although i was quite active in sports
happy.gif
Maybe bb took after me
happy.gif


baby s,
I drank lime juice during lunch but i think even if i drink sweet stuff, it shld not have such an effect normally, rite? Dr has not said anything yet cos it was still quite mild. The brown one was during my last pregnancy, just now the strip turned a little dark blue/greyish colour.

Looks like i gotta get my sis' help to draw out a diet plan ..... for a carbo person like me, it's really sian x 100 times ....
sad.gif
 
lucky i am changing my doc! i also dont wanna go to the gynae in jurong. always kenna scolded by him and treat like a 5 yr old kid!!

babyjon
i am using galenic stretch mark PREVENTION cream :D during pregnancy must use the prevent one, cannot use the reduction.
 
Arrgghh!! The clinic says that my chkn blood test results just came back from the lab. Now then the gynae will look thru the report. Guess I will have to wait another day! grr...
 
babyjon,
maybe ur gynae tink tt the multi vit is sufficient since it contain calcium as well?
i usin the clarins tonic treatment oil.
 
i vote for carebear stare. lol.. now carebears making a return..got lots of carebear stuff..kiddy bags, toys in the market.

oh yeah, another old time favourite is that strawberry thingy... but i prefer the old character.
 
pegsfur, maybe you can change to wholemeal bread and wholemeal pasta, heard that cuts down the sugar levels...

joeey, er, i also thot I heard care bear stares from the cartoon leh... ha ha ha..

babyS, u looking for holiday? i am also looking for a promo for a short trip.

reira, oh man, your gynae actually dare to say 0% risk!!! My gynae gave me a 5 minute speech on how there is no such as 100% guaranteed unless I do the amnio test, how good results can become negative and vice versa blah blah blah...
 
dont drink anything sweet about 1 hour b4 u do urine test... cos post meal sugar peaks at 45 mins after a meal..

talking about old shows.. that day i watch... my little pony my little pony..

hee..

i rememeber i fell in love with the name Megan becos of this show.. haha
 
smurfy, so your gynae also very upfront with the DS risk thing... sometimes have gynae like that dun know whether good or not... makes me worried, but keeps me realistic...
 
alot of carebears in the market.. but it seems like we r the ones liking them, not our kiddos lor? :/ they like barney, little einsteins, thomas the trains these days.
 
jul,
wat the hurry??? i alr waited 3 wk n glad tt my gynae clinic din gave me any call i believe if got prob they will call u themselves 1..
 
Hi babymaking,pinkmama,
I am also in the same boat as you with regards to OSCAR results-high risk,was soo upset yest after seeing the gynae's for results.
Have decided to go for amnio which can only be done on 20 Mar and wait another 3weeks for results.
It will be a very trying time from now til then.
Let's support each other ok?
 


Care Bear Stare and Cousin Call
The Care Bears' ultimate weapon is the "Care Bear Stare," in which the collected Bears stand together and radiate light from their respective tummy symbols. These combine to form a ray of love and good cheer which could bring care and joy into the target's heart. The Care Bear Stare has several different looks. One has a beam coming from the tummy being made up of several replicated images of the symbol. Another variation forms a rainbow when multiple Bears and/or Cousins are involved. A yellow beam with red hearts is sometimes seen as well. The movies Journey to Joke-A-Lot and The Big Wish Movie do not feature the Care Bear stare, but it does return in Oopsy Does It!. In the new series, Care Bears Adventures in Care-A-Lot, the stare appears as a beam of light in the color of the bear from which it originates.

In the original animated specials and the DiC series, the Care Bear Stare is usually initiated by the phrase "Care Bears...prepare to stare!" while in the Nelvana series and later versions it is initiated by the phrase "Care Bears Countdown!"

During the movies, the Care Bear Cousins call their weapon the "Cousin Call." In the second movie, the Call looks like a musical score, and the cousins, excluding Swift Heart Rabbit, use whatever animal noise is common to that animal. In the first movie, the Cousins simply make animal noises since they do not have any tummy symbols; those are later given to them by the Care Bears at the end of the movie.

Although commonly used on villains, the stare has also been used on the Care Bears themselves at least once in Adventures in Care-A-Lot, when it was used to temporarily cheer Grumpy up in the episode The Tell-Tale Tummy.

In addition to the Care Bear Stare, the Care Bears can also use their tummy symbols to summon other assistance such as heart-shaped balloons, rainbow bridges and sending out a distress signal.
