Mrs Puff,
I'm one of those that will skip eating vitamin pills. In fact, I didnt eat yesterday and DH was very upset and worried that next time bb will be thin and prone to illness. I'm sure last time his mum also never eat vitamin pills lor, he's still ok now what....

mrspuff and cherrios,
ya... my blood pressure is more on the lower end...will be seeing my gynae on Monday will ask her abt it. but juz upset becos it is affecting my work...keep on mc and getting leave.
My Gynae say it is safe to take but i rather tahan....juz tat i cant concentrate on my work which upsets me.
DolceVita,
I dun have this problem till last week when i have severe nauseous and went to TMC. Was order bedrest for 3 days. Yesterday the symptom worsen that i almost fainted on the train (no one bothered to offer their seat to be though its quite pretty obvious i was unwell)
I think I would need to talk to my gynae in prescribing iron pills or multi-vitamins to see it will alleviate my condition.

Cindy,
I feel the same too. Sometimes if i take longer journey on the train and with no seats, i would feel real uncomfortable, almost like gastrics pain and need to sit or bend down. So yday i took 4 stops the other direction to get to the end station so as to ensure i hv a seat when it turns the other way back. Will start to have nauesous feeling and aching backpain if stand too long as well

ND's girl,
I kept a thermometer beside me always.. no fever but juz persistent piercing-like headache.
Actually, i have ask my gynae previously tat if she could prescribe me with vitamin but she mentioned not necessary cos due to nauseousness, my body will not absorb the nutrients.
DolceVita,
I understand tt... was telling my hubby that i might have to take down two station to Punngol to ensure i get a seat...

ND's girl,
Yeah well-said, the vitamins that the OB prescribe is more for us. Baby will take the shortcut, whatever's available for it to survive. But of course i'm not advocating that MTB should not take the vitamins lah. It's just ok to skip it because we're not in a third world country with food shortage. i admit that i don't take it too because i don't swallow pills! haha..
Cindy,
If it's affecting your work (and your appraisal) then it becomes a need already. No worries, two, three panadol each day is fine. Singaporeans standard is very kiasu yeah. What the textbook is forbidding is if you exceed the recommended dose. Sometimes i see, we're too kiasu, we never take it, in the end we become to ill to function. i've taken panadol now and then too. no harm lah. don't stress yourself too much. maybe try to drink more water like mashy commented?
pegsfur,
i think it's a good idea to stay with the same gynae yeah, because your medical records and condition has already been established and it's easier to investigate why. really hope you can win the race this time!
chiart,
is this your first child? at the moment we see a BFP, our sacrificial moments start already. we will be forced to give up a lot of things for the baby, this is to educate us for a lot more selfless acts that we have to practice once we become real mothers. like, lack of sleep, lack of rest, lack of personal time. all become normal one day. so endure lah hor.

oh this is the first time i heard that neaseous then no need to eat vitamins hmmm
do you try to eat 6-8 light meals a day instead of 3 full meals?
Mrs Puff
MTBs must take care of their own health as well as baby's well being. We must ensure our body is strong and healthy so that our baby can also benefit from us. Do try not to skip the vits as we may not feel anything now but when we are old we will really feel it.

Ya, no seats even in Punggol, cos those staying at SK took the train back to punggol mah ... den we have to wait for the next train if there's no seats.
Talk abt giving up seats, i just gave up my seat to a preggy lady when the train reached hougang this morning. Bo bian, cos her tummy is bigger than mine.

dolcevita,
I start work at 8.30am.. the bus will reach shenton way by 7.50 to 8am.... if possible, i would not want to choose this option..
haix... i think even my tummy gets bigger, no one would offer seats to me cos i am of bigger built... think other will juz view it as being fat.... So if i take from buangkok up should have seat right?

oh while waiting for my gynae appt that day, i was reading the motherhood magazine.. it said though peanuts have a lot of folic, it is also the one of the mian culprit for allergies in babies...so it says if possible avoid.. its not the quantity of peanuts that u eat, its just about eating peanuts... so i guess if can avoid, avoid lor...
(but that day itself i ate indian rojak, and the sauce got peanuts!!! but at least i enjoyed it b4 i realise my mistake.. hee)

Baby S, if your magazine is from US, lots of children and adults there have peanut allergy. I think moderate is fine. So over in Vancouver, they are told to void all types of nuts. My neighbours there avoided nuts during pregnancies but the children are still peanuts allergy and the smell of peanuts can cause one of them to faint.
I read a report to avoid most allergies during young is to give the baby fish when the child started on solid and they stated asian children in asia have fewer allergies compare to the white children as they started taking fish from a young age and that helps to cut down allergies.

Pris,
I'm feeling tired all the time... need a nap every 2-3 hours, even when all I did was to sit at my desk to work. But I think its more due to age, I heard younger mums have more energy.
