hahahhaa.. last week when i went to the gyne... the reception lady actually commented.. "wah! still can wear your jeans ah!" i was thinking.. how do u know this isnt the bigger size jeans.. haha.. actually it was a pair of jeans i bought when i was fat.. so i could wear it lah.. duhh.. kekeke....
miemie,
my gynae = male. maybe that's why less sensitive with his comments hor. i dont have sisters but looking at my mum i think same fate as u lor. bwahaha... actually i dont really care one lah. just like to bitch. if i m really bothered i would watch what i eat. but am not. i mean, this is prolly the only time when i can eat and not feel guilty about it. so i'm actually really enjoying myself!
am itching to restart my exercises tho. cos normally my exercise load is quite high. but now gotta switch to lower intensity. so a bit bored. =( for sure i dont dare to go cycling anymore. normally i cycle about 20km for 1 hr, 3-4 times a week.
cat,
am prescribed DHA supplement by gynae. din check what brand. but he gave me a whole bunch of stuff. also have calcium, multivit + iron, and vit c. these are to start about 1 week later. i think your gynae will prescribe for you soon?
Pu,
hahaha... yah some of them quite duh right.
shugar,
your gynae more tactful than mine leh.
i want to BOX him.

Ong, Loke: Maybe you are right in giving $ to your folks and IL to look after bb. I also give $ to my mum but it's more like an allowance I will give her whether or not she looks after my bb lor. Actually her 'job' is to play with bb only becoz I got a maid who's sole responsibility is to look after bb and my mum also got a maid who loves to play with my bb too.
I always felt that my mum should pay me $ for letting her play with bb. muahahahahah.....joking lah!

Lately i have constant headaches. Is it from the preg or stress?
I think the purposes of a CL is to help take care of the bb. Hiring a Cl is giving me alot of headaches. Hb come home so late daily. As for my mum- i think she should have abandone me when i m born. I dont have any positive memories of her at all. In fact she seems to feel that i m her sandbag. At times i feel so stress out. The only fortunate thing that happens to me is i am love by Hb.

has been 2 days since i logged in. Amazed at the number of posts. My heartburn is especially bad, has been avoiding those food but doesnt seem to help. Wonder this will last for how long. Now i realise being a mother is really not easy, right from conception.
cat : my gynae perscibed me Nature's Care - Dhaxtra softgel 1000mg. I asked her if got an equivalent outside or not. She said, no but outside got inferior one. 
So I still buy from her.
ww : i think i read somewhere its common to have headaches at 2T.
hrd : maybe you can suggest going outside to eat..you say you have craving to eat this and this place. etc. or suggest to your HB to go out eat as family with MIL, so MIL won't be so tired, cooking all the time

Anyway, since he's not working, I think my husband should give him some allowance. It's not cheap to look after the baby. As long as the money is not coming out of my pocket, I don't mind. Hee.
miemie: don't envy those who lost weight, coz the book I read, we will just put it back in T2 and T3. It will all add up to be about the same. Anyway, I lost weight, but I can't fit into my clothes because the tummy still lots of fats. I'm tempted to think the weight loss is due to muscle loss, coz my thighs are super flabby now that I've stopped exercising.
fifi & glass>> yeah, me also not exactly bothered by the weight gain.. just very envious of those who lost weight! haha.. i also just love to complain and end up still eat wad i want.. haha.. lately my appetite at night has decreased tremendously which may be the cause of no weight gain since the 3 weeks checkup till 01 apr checkup.. i used to be able to eat a lot for dinner, but dunno why now cant eat much already..
ww>> i also have headaches very frequently lately.. i tink might be due to the weather now.. amazingly hot and sunny, and i tink i cannot stay in the sun for too long, will end up with a very bad headache after that...

MieMie/HRD : My weight gain is 9kg !!!!!!!!! The champion of all
So dun feel bad that u put on 2 or 3kg as mine seems alarming! Juz looked like a rice dumpling now!!!!! SOoooooo envious of ppl who lost weight leh!!!! Wonder y my #2 is always hungry. think hitting 30kg of weight gain seems reachable. *sighs*
fifi>> last night we went din tai fung for dinner.. i had 2 xiaolongbaos, 2 small little bowls of sour spicy soup and i was full already.. i did not touch my bowl of noodles at all! i really cannot believe it.. in the end hubby ended up eating the bowl of noodles, plus his own plate of fried rice and 4 xiaolongbaos. fainted... his stomach is getting bigger than mine! all thanks to me.. hahahaha
ong>> if your pre-pregnancy weight consider as underweight, then you may not actually put on 9kg solely for the bb.
My colleague who is standing at 1.7m, only weighed 49kg. So her gynae told her that she is allowed to gain 25kg for her pregnancy. This is due to the fact that she is considered as underweight person.

joyce : i was slightly underweight at aro 51 or 52 b4 i had my #1. After #1, i became 55kg but i piled on another 4kg few mths back and at 59kg b4 #2. Think is gg to be a hard time if i wanna slim now. Cos metabolism is slowing now at mid 30s and fats simply pile on easily then shedding off.
miemie,
haha... fat and happy. so far we have RYC, then we have panda club, now i think we can set up HIPPO club. hehehehe...
ong,

p: i'm here.. hahaa... just came into the office not long ago..
ong & miemie: dun envy the weight loss ah.. haha. i'd rather be able to eat properly and dun have funny things like heartburn/indigestion etc etc.. very uncomfortable.. make me lose all the concentration at work...
i'm now very high on carbo... bread is my staple food now.. perpetually munching on bread every hour... but i'm also glad that i'm beginning to be able to eat some eggs and some fish.. at least the egg prata for supper satisfied me last night. haha..
btw, i'm seeing this chinese physician, who's a paediatrician/obstetrician/gynae... i find her medication quite good.. at least it soothed down my intestinal discomfort and am able to sleep better at night.. not so lethargic during the day also... but she's in the west, at bukit batok.. went to see her just now and she asked "is it a girl?" after listening to my pulse.. i was thinking.. "like i would know..." hahha.. anyway, she said it'll be more accurate in another few weeks.
but my point is, if all the western drugs are not helping any of u here with all the heartburn and stuff.. u may want to consider her.. she's got good credentials...
