i m urs

Hope everything's ok. Just read that u're gog to the KKH 24h clinic. Try to get them to give u the jab & take duphaston.

Yest my gynae told me that 2pills/day is for normal dosage, 3/day is for serious case where u need a lot more to stablise. 1/day is more for 'maintenance'.
 


gladys

Sounds like it might be an infection. U can go GP, no need gynae. they can give u a safe medication to apply inside the V to clear up the infection.
 
mamijoan

Thanks for your concern

Everything's alright now.

Oic. But hor, if it's dabian, why need special name 'meconium"? Make everyone confused haha.

sad.gif

Glad to know that ur bb isdoing well.. How many ww r u in now?
Hi mama to 5js,
Is it at o and g partners clinic?
 
Joanne

Not sure leh. Were u spotting? maybe ur gynae just KS a bit & ask u to take more. Did u have prev m/c? Maybe that's y u got higher dosage?

Oh me 9 weeks exactly tdy.
 
hi joanne,

i was prescribe 3x daily for dasphston too...cos previously i got spotting twice in a week so the gynae told me to eat 3x a day...on top of tis, she gave me an injection...
 
joanne,

after reading your post, i'm worrying abit. do you mean that hcg level must be high/ideal then will have morning sickness? coz i'm also not having any ms leh. i also juz feel the bloatedness. i hope its not because my hcg levels are not high thats why i'm not feeling the ms
sad.gif
but i did ask my doc and he said that some people don't get ms at all and its quite normal. but he didn't take any bloodtest for me, so... wonder how can he tell if my hcg levels are normal. keke... ok, i'm getting really paranoid!

my appetite is also hearty. i'm eating quite well. but i got another problem it seems, not sure if its any cause of concern. seems like while i'm eating a lot, nothing is 'coming out'. i think i'm constipating and have not done any 'big biz' for 2 days liao. ytd, hb bought me prune juice, but nope, still doesn't work! :/ i'm also drinking alot of water as i feel very thirsty all the time....abt 8 tall glasses daily. i do go pee very often though.
 
kiki

Thanks

8 weeks 6 days yest. Is 2.38cm big? Doc told me it's growing well, so I happy liao. Din really ask whether it's the correct size or too big or too small.
 
kiki

Just saw ur post on the MS.

Dun worry, I got no MS also. In fact, as long as I eat & dun let myself go hungry for too long, I wun even feel nauseous.
 
jul,

oh...you're 9wks already? hehe... i didn't know, thought maybe we're about the same wk. coz mine at the last scan was only 1.01cm (6wks). so of coz yours sounded big to me. kekekek...
 
kiki

Depends.. sometimes daily, sometimes 1.5days? But hor, I think I kena my first case of constipation this am
sad.gif
 
new mtb,

how do you define easy preg and not easy preg? hehe...

normally they say if the daddy's sperms are very strong then it will be boy boy. if weaker then gal gal. keke.. not sure real or not.
 
haha male sperms are v good swimmers so they r fast to hit target. female ones r those who swim v slowly but steady. so those males ones when they die of exhaustion, its the female who win the race!!!
 
mamato5J

Thanks

I a bit worried Babylet is sot sot deh. Why keep standing on the head ah? The mummy dislikes yoga one leh, cannot be my genes right? haha
 
jul, mama to 5Js,

hmm... really ah? i was really surprised too. coz when i went to the previous gynae on my very 1st visit, the size was 0.65cm. then 6 days later, i went another gynae, this time measured 1.01cm. AND apparently i put on almost 1kg within this 6 days. :/
 
jul,

i read that ideally for 1st trimester, is to put on about 5 lbs. read that if put on too much weight is also not healthy for mummy and bb.

we're suppose to eat extra 300cal/day niah. but i also never go and measure how much i eating lah...juz arga arga. but my MIL keep telling my hb to stuff me up and feed me more. keep saying i'm eating for 2 so must eat double. so that olden day 'theory' is wrong lor. hee....
 
kiki

Means the BB is not lying down. It is upside down, & head on the floor, legs in the air, like doing yoga head stand lor. Dunno if Babylet is cuckoo one lor haha.

Yeah, I am supposed to put on only 2 kg by week 12. Now I week 9 only. Looks like I will be a v fat mummy. I cannot stop eating leh. Then I'm aws hungry some more. And doc says no exercise.. so very very sian.

Aiyah my mum also keep telling me to eat more. My MIL, I think, is quite grossed out by my appetite. Coz b4 preggie, I sometimes also eat more than hubby, so she thinks I'm a monster lor haha.
 
Cudn't see v clearly coz it's upright. But doc pointed out 2 small stubs that is supposed to be the legs. She also pointed out yolk sac, umbilical cord, head, etc. All looked blur blur to me lah.

But hor, after I rolled ard trying to get babylet to move, it started kicking & stretching. So funny..

Jul Luv... thats soooooo CUTE!! BB is 9 weeks old??
me opposite leh... I hardly can eat leh...sometimes I worry my BB will starve.. but i seriously can't eat alot.. not before i'm preggie.. laggi not when I'm now preggie.. hai~ so i try to munch more fruits, veggies & cereals...
 
kiki

U see what I mean now abt Babylet being sot sot deh??? Even after I laughed, & rolled ard, it refused to give up its head stand. Before that it was motionless, then it started kicking while doing its head stand. Aiyoh...

tiffy

Yup, 8 weeks 6 days yest.

I think no need to worry. First tri BB is getting nutrients from the yolk sac, only later then they will absorb from us. So my gynae explained that she will only gimme multi-vits in 2nd tri. Folic acid enough for now.
 
Clare> thanks for the tips on extensions.. will check them out!

happy.gif

happy.gif

Jul> wah.. congrats.. when's ur EDD and how many weeks now??
happy.gif

else have to go search how many weeks u are now.. hehehe.. :p

Oh okay.. 9 weeks.. got it.. see?? must include inside ur updates la. heheheh.. thanks!
happy.gif


kiki> the sperm strong or weak part is due to the fact that Sperm Y(that gives boy) swims much faster than Sperm X ( to give girl).
But Sperm Y being able to swim faster actually has a shorter lifespan compared to Sperm X which is slower but can swim longer distance..
happy.gif


So... depending on where ur egg is when it is released from ur ovary.. the further the egg is from the uterus... the longer distance it is for the sperm to travel to meet it...
So as the egg proceeds along the way out of the fallopian tube to the uterus, the higher change for a Y Sperm to meet it... coz it doesnt have to travel that longer distance..
hahahaha... u gotta visualise what i'm saying here la..
happy.gif


So ovulation usually is i think about 48 hours.. or roughly ard there.. if u had intercourse during the very initial stage of the egg release... higher chance to get a girl. coz the Sperm X is able to swim up further..
but if u had intercourse later on... i dunno.. maybe 40 hours later after the egg is released...there is a higher chance for a Sperm Y to meet it.. coz Sperm Y can swim faster.. having equal distance to compete with Sperm X...
hahahha....

This is from my own understanding la.. hahahaa.. not that very theroretical.. but from what i read in books and told by friends..
happy.gif


hahahha... its not eating for 2 adults!!! thats what i always tell him.. its also the size of extra half a peanut butter sandwich a DAY!! hahaha.. :p
its eating for 1 adult and 1 embryo.. hehhee.. :p
 
Hi everyone!

I am new here. Just confirmed that I'm 5 weeks pregnant, EDD is in Sept. I'm currently sourcing for a gynae near my area, Hougang. Any gynae to recommend?

I chanced upon this gynae, Dr Watt. Any one has/had any experiences with Dr Watt? Her clinic is located at Hougang Mall. Please advise if she's good.. Thanks in advance!
 
rach >> My buddy recommended Dr Chen to me cos her sis & sis-in law all goes to him... for me that time I gan jiong mah..wanna see if everything is okie.. den my maiden home is in yishun so went to Dr chen before going to my mum lor...
 
Hi mummies,

Can I check with you what supplements your docs prescribe? I'm given Materna. Nothing else. I do not feel comfortable with this current one so I'll go check out another 2.
 
rach,

wah, your XY description is very good and clear. hehe...

happymrskoh,

congrats and welcome!!
happy.gif


helena,

materna is mummies milk by anmum isn't it? its not a supplement mah. doc never prescribe folic acid? my doc prescribed me folic acid and i was also given a medication to curb my bloatedness.
 
rach

Okie, next time i incl my vital stats when I update hahaha.

happymrskoh

Congrats & welcome!

helena

How many weeks r u on now? My gynae only said to take folic acid, then bcoz of my spotting, duphaston. She said the multi-vits will be in 2nd tri.
 
Hi mtb, yup . keeping my finger crossed that I will feel better after the first tri.

happymrskoh> Congrats!! My gynae is Dr Chen from Punggol. may be too far for u. My first preg is with her so going back to her as me and my husband feels very comfortable with her.

Helena> What is materna? I am given folic tablets for now only
 
tiffy>ooohh.. okie.. Mmm.. so near to me.. but i never considered him.. hahaha.. but looks like his charges are not cheap either..
u know his package charges??

Helena> i told my doc i'm already taking folic acid on my own. so he didnt give me anything..
happy.gif


kiki> hahaha.. i was trying to understand the XY too.. heehee.. so got a better understanding after reading.. and hearing from people...

those who have yet to see.. should check out the "In The Womb" 10 part series from Youtube.. i did copied the link previously...
but think gotta go back archive to check it out... hehehe... :p

Jul> hahahhahaha... vital stats?? no need la... weeks and EDD can liaoz.. then the rest here can agar agar also... hehehe...

Hey mummies... how abt a gathering after our 1st trim?? heehehe..

we can meet up to wala more.. hehehe.. a dinner or something... when most of us are feeling better.. hehhe.. :p
 
hi mummies..

for the 1st time since last wk.. stomach doesnt feel so bloated in the morning.. but who knows.. nw feel like vomitting out my half bowl of porridge for lunch
sad.gif


think must get some medi for my stomach n for my MS..

i m urs.. hope everything is well for you.. will pray for you.. take care..

last wk during my 1st chk up, the doc measured bb to be abt 1cm... think I'm at most 4-5wks then.. i still tot bb is very small.. so seems like 4-5wks at 1cm is quite big?

And jul, u very funny, kept saying your bb doing handstand.. think your baby will love brake-dance music! then mayb u can see ur baby spinning inside
happy.gif


I wasnt given any medi at all.. mayb will kia su and request from my doc on monday..

this pregnancy is so diff from my 1st one.. so hope it'll be a boy
happy.gif
 
rach, you got ur folic acid from watson? It should be of similar quality as per prescribe by gynae? cos normally will feel medi prescribe by doctor should be better than purchase off the counter.. but if get from gynae will def be more exp..
 
crystalz

Hope u get gd news too, & do keep us updated yeah?

rach

Gathering huh? I dun mind. Gd to meet up & share share. U organise ah? Haha I only wanna turn up & eat niah *evil luff*

Aiyoh I dun like breakdance or hiphop leh. I like pop :p
 
really ar?! oh dear... i dun want too big.. still thinking if bb is not too big i may want to try for natural instead of c-sec..
