Hi gals,

I am new here.. I had a miscarriage at 5wks on 1st march 09 and until now my menses have not come. So i decided to test using HCG strip this morning and to my surprise, i see a faint +ve line. Was wondering if i could be pregnant again as it was so unexpected. Therefore i went to the GP to have a blood test done to confirm if i am pregnant. Results will only be out on tue as the lab are closed on wkend. Hope to join u gals here. =)
 
Hi, Gina. I had a super faint line too and gradually the line darkened over the days. you can try testing everyday using hpt too while waiting for the blood test results.
happy.gif
Hope you can share your good news soon!
happy.gif
I attach pix of my faint line for you to see. ;)

Hi Pauline,
Thanks for the pic.. yah..my line is abt the same as urs.. i will try testing it again tml.. hope to see darker line soon..
happy.gif
 
pauline - thanks for adding me in the excel list!

gals, i had light bleeding since yesterday night. so just now i went to a gynae at yishun to check and confirmed my pregnancy.

The gynae confirmed im positively pregnant but when we did the ultrasound, he found fresh blood at my vagina opening and when doing the vaginal scanning, we cannot find any water sac.
He said we cant do much about the bleeding now and he also cannot confirmed how many weeks im in since theres no water sac to be seen. But he did see that the endometrium (uterus wall lining) has thicken and definitely something is going on in there but cannot give a definite answer as yet. We will have to wait for another 2 weeks to do another scan.

In the meantime, I felt more relax now after the confirmation though no water sac can be found (as yet, I hope!). I've been given this pill called Duphaston, its said to stabilize the implantation and avoid miscarrying.

So i need the prayers from you gals! Wish me luck!
 
hi, andreanie, sorry to hear about the bleeding. Hope the hormone pills work. Do rest well n keep us updated. Hugs.

Sunnydaz, welcome welcome

since your edd is 5 dec, do you mind to insert new row under 5 dec n add your details there instead? I'm trying to keep the list clean going by earliest edd first. Thanks.

Hi MTBs,

I would like to ask for your opinion.

I am 5 days late. My period has been very regular. I tested and it came back negative. Past 2 days felt some cramping on my lower abdominal.

Many said it is too early to test for pregnancy. How long should I wait?

Pls advise
 
Gina...all the best..hope u can join us here
happy.gif


Andreanie..i hope everything will be fine. Take care and have a good rest yeah...hugzzz..

Pauline...me staying at tampines st 72..

Josephine, I also bought mine at $19.90. lol... Have you tried on them? I think it's quite soft and comfy. I am quite fine with Mamil Mama actually. My friend told me that other brands are not so nice so I never try also. heehee

Pauline, I am staying at St 91, opp St Hilda's. Where is St 71?? Is it somewhere near?
 
Hi Haffa and Pauline, thanks! Just worried that if I am really preg, I keep feeling the cramping pain on and off, not sure safe or not. sigh
 
hello there.. i recently had a visit wi my gynae. did the virginal scanning and saw the sac ard 0.15cm in my womb. got spotting also, but it seems to improve these days. now pretty anxious and kept thinking about my bb progress ever since. is this normal? by the way, how u all managed to calculate the EDD when some are just 4 weeks plus? my gynae went thru the scanning and informed me that the sac too small to be measured, so cant have the EDD also..
 
ainsley i havent bought the shoes yet haha...
me havent see any gynae yet...
feel a bit worried abt bb progress...
 
hi apple i think some ppl who are preg will still experience some cramping like the menses is coming but it should not be too painful...
 
I went to buy some flat maryjanes from Toa Payoh the other day, because I love walking and yet I wear heels a lot and often get stuck somewhere! Geez.

Hi apple, I experienced some mild cramping on cycle day 31 and cycle day 32 that felt like menstrual cramp but a bit milder. After that it went away and came on and off every now and then. I read its the uterus adjusting to the growth of the sac and baby.

Anyone staying in the bt merah area here? ;)
 
Hi Gina, good luck to u! Hope to hear gd news. ;)

andreanie, dun worry u will be fine gd luck!
happy.gif


Apple, maybe u can try a few more days if u are anxious u may want to ask your gynae for advice.
happy.gif


yaya, same here when i see my gynae i was spotting but after taking the duphaston it stopped. As for EDD it helps if u can remember when is your last period.
happy.gif
 
Hi, Ainsley, I'm directly behind the new 'private' HDB flats, diagonally opposite the Tampines Swimming pool. Quite near to you actually, cos I can take bus 293 to your place I think.
happy.gif


Apple, don't worry, slight cramping is ok, even spotting is ok cos can use hormone pills to stabilize. As long as no severe cramping and heavy bleeding, if confirmed pregnant and got those symptoms then better see gynae quickly. But since yours only late for a few days, can be also that AF is late. My AF was also very late before, cannot explain why cos I quite regular. But hpt test keep coming back negative, gynae scanned also nothing, 10 days later then it came. :p

welcome, yaya.
happy.gif
We calculate EDD by our last LMP but there will be a dating scan later stage to determine EDD but usually it's not very far off unless you can't rememeber LMP or ovulation day at all.
 
Hi ladies,

Pauline, thxs for taking the trouble to update the list
happy.gif


Apple, hope that you will be joining us...

Andreanie, relax and rest more ok.

Ladies, just to check how is pregnancy symptoms coming about for you guys? I know that I may lucky but a little worried though as other that my boobs are pain, slightly more tired and backache, I do not have any other symptoms. Or thinking maybe its still too early for symptoms to kick in. For my 1st, I have more symptoms like MS even I did not merlion. For this, I only have very slight MS and cramp but that was think only the 3 and 4 week of my pregnancy. But now all dissapear. Of course I hop that it does not come back but some say that if no symptoms, may be unhealthy for bb. Really hope that I am few of the lucky ones that does not have many preggy symptoms so that my 9mths would be easier. Ladies, any one of you feel like no symptoms too?
 
Lileen

I have no symptom so far. For my #1, I have no symptoms or MS too. Well, the only symptom is mense didn't come, tat's all.
I have not gone to my gynae yet, so I have not had the scan or anything like tat yet. Just tested positive on the kit and GP has confirmed it. My gynae appt won't be until 2 weeks later.
Don't worry too much.
 
hey yaya, I live in Jln Membina area along lower delta road
happy.gif
what abt u?

hey glimmerhope, i wonder why my gynae gave me duphaston even though i'm ok. then i wonder if is it because the shape of gestational sac being oval (not sure if the scan being oval is the result of havina tilted uterus)? i read online the gestational sac should be spherical, then i got a bit worried 'cuz mine is ovalish.
 
Hi apple lee and andreanie,
good luck!

Wow roxy, you're a super mum!

I miss my heels!
sad.gif
i think i better stop wearing them, my knees have been hurting. I've tried shoes from clarks and I think they are super comfy, like walking on air, but i just cant bear to spend $100+ on ugly shoes.. haha..
I've bought a pair of mary janes from Tracce. It quite comfortable. hmm but not so pretty too.. May want to buy a pair of birkies or crocs slippers. hopefully it wont be slippery when it rains..

dear mums, i'm using clarins body treatment oil and i love it! the scent is comforting and its absorbed quickly into the skin..

mums without ms, ure so lucky,
happy.gif

my symptoms make me so uncomfortable and just want to sleep the whole day..
lets hope it gets better and to a safe, smooth and happy pregnancy for all mummies here!
 
Josephine, you haven't seen a gynae? how many weeks are you in now?

Lileen, I am have sore breast, and cramp even before I did the pregnancy test myself. I have quite a bad backache also. (Don't know if it's due to epidural or previous pregnancy strain.)
Now I have mile morning sickness but not exactly only happens in the morning. Just anytime of the day.
sad.gif


Yaya, you can go to search engine and type "due date calculator" and tons of them will appear. key in the first day of your menstrual cycle and they will calculate your EDD for you.

By the way, do you ladies do your gynae do vaginal scan for you or just ultra-sound?
 
lileen...i had terrible ms on friday. Probably bcoz i was at home the whole day. When I went out on sat and today, no ms at all. *phew*. U r so lucky not to have any....

ainsley..my gynae did ultra sound.
 
gina,
all the best to you. hope to hear yr good news!

andreanie,
good luck to u!

apple,
u can try 3 days later again or take a blood test, it should confirm whether ur pregnant. Cramps during 1st trimester is common n normal.

lileen,
i didnt have any MS for my 1st so im praying hard that it will be the same for #2
 
hi mummies, thxs. Just hope that i am one of the lucky one and bb will continue to strive n grow in the womb. Even not a bb yet now lah. Haha. Ainsley, the backache cld be due to many factors. Think a lot is on the strain previously n u may not hv rest enough to recover completely. My gynae told be that epidural if administered correctly will not cause backache. Some tat nv take epidural also hv backache n some that hv taken dun hv backache. Think it also depends on our own body type n how 'strong' we r. My gynae did a v scan 4 me cos cannot see anything wif ultrascan. But still nothing cos only close to 5wks when i visit. Told me 2 go 2wks later. But only book my appt at wk 8. Haha. Try to save money. Cos go early juz to make sure pregnancy starts rite. Through scan on ovaries n womb she say looks ok. And now tat no longer hv cramps, than not too worried. Usually gynae only do v scan early during pregnancy. As it progress, juz do ultrascan.
 
apple,
jsut dropping by to share
you might wish to go for a beta-hcg bloodtest. if tested morning, should be able to get result afternoon.

will pick up preg with beta-hcg > 5mg.its very very accurate.
If +ve, gynae will prescribe you with duphaston and probably hcg jab if needed, to stabilize the preg depending on how much isure level.
if -ve, then no choice, have to wait for af to report.

all the best to you
happy.gif


it cost about $60+ to $90+,depending on which gynae u seeking.
 
Hi, Leen, I seem to have different symptoms for no. 1 versus no. 2. No. 1 was more low appetite and MS cos can't stand certain smells and foods but hardly merlion. For this one, I had more pulling pain and spotting initially. Nowadays hungry every 3-4 hours, once too hungry will be nauseous. But at least MS seem better than last time. :p

Ainsley, I have a blog too for my no. 1. Find it very useful. www.anewpiggy.blogspot.com

Skinniebeenie, I have retroverted womb too. My gestational sac for both no. 1 and no. 2 are ovalish. Can visit my blog if you want to see the US pixs.

Hi all!

I just tested positive today! EDD is 15 Dec 09.

Really thanking God cos i was hoping and praying for a Dec baby so we don't have to wait for one more year for baby to go to nursery/school in future as i am a SAHM with a 17 month old girl.

have been toying with the idea of working part-time for the past months. will postpone the ideas for the next 18 months at least.

take care!
 
hi all, i just discovered i'm pregnant recently. have yet to see a gynae.

which gynae are u ladies seeing?

anyone here from the east area and has a gd gynae in the east side to recommend?
 
Welcome avocado, carrine
happy.gif


Avocado, I'm also SAHM to my gal who was born in Jan 08.
happy.gif
I'm happy to strike in last month of 2009 too. But sometimes wonder if it'll be more siong in terms of schooling cos next time, it'll be one kid after the other for PSLE, O Level etc esp for no. 2 cos he/she will be born in Dec so younger than all the peers. :p

Carrine, you can refer to the list and see where the other MTBs are seeing their gynaes. Dr Heng Tung Lan from ESH is supposed to be quite popular.
