hope to have the "miracle" that u have. think ur gynae is very right in saying this coz studies do show that once u have 2 or 3 children consecutively with the same gender, the higher the chance of the following kid being the same gender again...
I am nt hopeful of getting the gender that i want. Bt if i really gt it, it's a dream come true for me. Coz i believe many wld luvs to have
a mixed of boy and girl esp for my case. sure u understand hw i feel right??

i hope u get the "miracle" boy u want. actually my hub wanted another girl cos he said my gal sooo cute. hope he wont ask me have another one after this!

u gals read yesterday strait times on mind ur body? I think they have an article on those old remedies like vicks, po chai pills, Salonpas medicated plaster etc.. on their effectiveness and who shld avoid them.. if i remm correctly.. pregnant lady shld avoid po chai pills and also the axe medical oil cos of some chemicals inside..
Can i have some boy bb dust too?
but ya, dont want to hope and expect too much la.. so that the disappointment wont be too big..

My twins are fraternal twins, cos they are in separate waterbags.
Actually right, yesterday I went for scan at 16 weeks. The smaller twin, gynae says likely to be a girl! Cos he scan from under Baby B and we all could not see anything sticking out from under Baby B's legs!
And the bigger twin Baby A, refused to cooperate. After gynae prodded it to move, it moved abit but we could still not see between the legs.
So now got to wait for 16 Apr scan to hopefully know their definite genders! =D

Thanks for the info on the remedies. Ok will be sure to avoid po chai pills and axe oil.
Actually since finding out I'm pregnant, I don't even dare to take Panadol. And cough syrup is a no-no, I've been told by a reflexologist before.
But due to aching nerves on upper back, I couldn't sleep well for so many nights... that's why can't tahan I ask gynae if I can use medicated plaster. Luckily can use, but he said in moderation.

Ya I like hearing about your twins cos I just can't imagine how it's gonna be! But really can't wait. So excited, since this is my first pregnancy. My frens who have 2 kids by now says good for me lor, dunno what to expect then head-on collision and see how to handle 2 crying babies at the same time.
Actually like you, I'm also paranoid about babies' health. Cos no matter what gender, it's ok. But I just want to know that babies are normal and healthy, that's my hope.
Cos I have seen/heard of some colleagues or frens who miscarried, even at 7 mth, 5 mth also have... so sad you know. Sorry I don't mean to scare anyone here, but this is the kind of fear we pregnant ladies face. That's why in a way I can't wait to give birth, at least I want to know that babies are fine.
But yes, agree with you if got same gender also very cute. If 1 boy 1 girl also bonus. Just that now 1 twin bigger than the other, and gynae already suspects smaller twin is a girl. Hence it'll be nice if the bigger-sized twin is a boy =)

haha... friends always like to scare us hor. it was like that for me too but dun let them scare u lah. cos my twins were so so good babies. only first 3 mths a bit troublesome lah cos they had such gigantic appetite and keep wanting milk all the time! by third mth, they developed into schedules and everything fell into place. they were also not needy babies, hardly threw tantrum as long as u satisfy their tummy. then when they were older, say abt 8-9 mths they played together and u feel so happy just watching them. total bliss! i dun mind another pair of twins!
oh my older twin is the heavier one too. they r abt 600g different in birth weight.

Yes, something new to me. First pregnancy then get twins... I got to learn fast about parenting. Now starting to read up alot on kids' development and parenting skills liao.
For info, I joined an Amazon spree to order this book, "Parent Effectiveness Training - The proven program for raising responsible children" : http://www.amazon.com/Parent-Effectiveness-Training-Responsible-Children/dp/0609806939/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1237538819&sr=8-1
But the book has not arrived yet so I can't advise how good or not-so-good it is. I did read though the reviews on Amazon regarding this book though, before deciding to buy it.
About medication, lucky you never take the cough syrup. last time the reflecologist told me, one of her clients didn't know she was pregnant. Took cough syrup, then got miscarriage. Seems cough syrup is really very strong.

Wah, how nice to hear that it was so blissful fo you to care for your twins. Must be soo adorable when they play together! And wear same-same clothes... cute!
I guess for twins, one will be heavier than the other but then hope they catch up in weight/size when they are older.

Wow... I was attending to 2 customers and there were so many threads!
I bought chicken essence during my 1st 8 weeks, before visiting my gynae and it was with cordyceps... In the end after the Gynae visit I had to give the whole thing to my hubby >.<
After that I don't know what else to take.
I've had cravings for many types of foods... Like Rojak... Vongole with white wine... And I am swallowing my saliva as I mention this... =(
I'm hearing so much on nono's on those foods... Sigh...
Kat, Haha.. Bikini is good. But My hubby will have phobia.. No idea why...
Whitey, I never used any plasters or such, I just live with it. I feel like a cranky piece of metal, haha.
