Hi L&L, no worry on the cramp, as our body is changing and building a warm place for our bb to grow in. There is why we feel the cramp.
jasmine, i prefer ginger beer to sprite. feels its better at curbing nausea...but could be psychological. 
re : eating crabs
i ate lots of crabs... at least 1 a month since my 2nd to 3rd trimester for my son. So he's very active. but he's quite the model child while out though.
re : clarins toning oil
LC, how did you managed to use so much? I didn't even finished a bottle then! but I wasn't very diligent...and i only applied to tummy and bum area.
re : OSCAR test
so this test is to test for down syndrome?
re : cravings
I didn't have much cravings during my first pregnancy...at least not those that i die die must eat the food. But I do rem eating alot of durians and crabs and frog legs. My boy isn't a drooler either. *phew*
welcome Jes and the other new mtbs!
Jes you are certainly a poster gal for the government's policies!
re : MS
my mum didn't have any MS at all for her 3 kids. But I had terrible ones. So not accurate in our case.

Emmie, It is advisable to let the BB stay in the womb as long as possible.
THis thread is moving super fast.
Jasmine, I'm a green tea lover too. But i read that green tea sort of reduces the level of folic acid in your body, not healthy for baby.
So now im controlling.
Jes, congrats, i see u in e April 08 thread!
Megan, i'm going for c-sec too! but i was hoping to be able to drag till 2010. Dec babies like v lugi. But if purposely drag until 2010 like wasting one year for baby like that. though it's a good headstart.

Summer Mama, he is 24mths.
Hi, think if your kid is born 1st jan, you can chose whether to let your kid attend Pri 1 with those from last year..like eg if your kid born on 1 Jan 2000, so by rite 2007, he/she should be in Pri 1. But in 2006, you can chose whether to let your kid attend pri sch in 2006 (with those kids born in 1999) or 2007.

really? green tea will reduce the amt of folate? i tot it was high in antioxidants. so i guess everything must be in moderation...
megan, emmie, summer mama
haha, looks like i can join the club, i will most prob go for a planned c-sect too. my boy was delivered thru a planned c-sect cos he was too big.
linda
cramps are ok, as long as it's not prolonged and very painful along with bleeding.

But i prefer my boy to have a head start than be the youngest among the classmate. My gynea mentioned to me that there is a different as her boy born is 20/dec and is slower in performace then his peers.
dumbger, my previous c-sec was an emergency one.
Fully dilate, midwife asked me to push, then when my gynae came he says my girl's head cannot pass through my pelvic bone have to go for c-sec.
The experience was scary.
But frankly i cant imagine having to go for c-sec again. =(

That sounded scary. I don't think I'll ever be ready for a C-sect.
Hmm, based on bbcentre, my EDD is 6.1.09. But my first one was 2 weeks early too, so who knows huh, I might just end up with a Dec 09 baby.
Re : schooling
Actually I've heard about Dec babies being slower in devt than Jan babies, but I don't really bother much. They'll catch up at some point in time. I mean, u can't tell the diff between a 30 yr old born in Jan & one born in Dec rite? But of course lah, the headstart amongst peers can be important.

actually i dont feel much of a difference, maybe because my #1 hasn't started primary school. he is also a dec baby.
in terms of milestones now, as long as yr child is developing at average rate, that's good enough. Plus, for childcare and nursery/preschool, alot of them take u in based on the month and not the year. I.e., only when u turn 24 months or 36 months.
frankly, i feel, by primary school age, kids are developed more or less the same. Of course we have to make some effort to stimulate them in their earlier years so they have a headstart. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

summermama
how come ur gynae didn't check earlier that ur pelvis too small for ur bb to go thru? cos that's wat happen to me...my gynae estimated that my pelvis may be too small for my boy, so he pre-warned me that when delivery comes, i may hav to go thru emergency c-sect if he couldn't pass thru my pelvis. that's y i said if like that straight away go for elective c-sect.
smalldreams
if u go thru GA, won't experience anything, so won't feel scary lah. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] jus wake up to the pain only haha.

hi mummies!
So glad that this thead is up.
Jes - you're doing real great! No 5! I wish I can do that too.
Pearl - yes at 6 weeks, gynae will usually be able to detect heartbeat.
This is my #2. My 1st boy is approaching 6months old. Yup, he was born in Dec 08! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] Natural birth without epidural. Don't ask me how I did it. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
This pregnancy is planned, not an accident. We wanted to avoid the tiger lunar year but didn't want to have a 3 year age gap between no1 and no2 so we aimed for a jan/feb 2010 baby! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]In reality, my babies will be 13 months apart but on paper 2 years apart.
I myself was born in dec too but I turned out alright so think its ok if early delivery causes your baby to be born in dec.
congrats to all mtb 2010 mummies! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
My edd is 25th Jan 2010. I have not gone to the gynae yet... still chilling and relaxing as I am feeling pretty alright.

ladies anyone wan to buy D.O.M. I m selling at $80.pls e-mail me if u interested.thanx. [email protected].
Hi DNA,
actually it's becos dh loves kids and he dun mind to hand-on with the kids, that's why I'm willing to have so many kids. If he's gog to be like a king waiting to be serve, then haha... we sure won't have so many of them. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Smalldreams, I restricted myself from eating crab when I had no. 1 but he's still very itchy hand leh. For the last 3 pregnancies, I hack-care and ate lots of it cos after delivery got to refrain from taking seafood for at least 3 mths as mine were all c-sec.
Hi Amby, I have 2 boys 2 gals now. No.1 is 8 yo boy, follow by 7 yo gal, 3 yo gal and 1 yo boy.
Somehow, symptom for each sex seems to be the same for me. When I had boy, I feel very bulky and my nose was really big. When I had gal, my leg/thigh itch alot and I can really scratched till it bleed. My mil said this is due to hormone change. Really terrible lor. The itch started after 1st trimester and ended when I went into 3rd trimester. So when I had no. 3 and I started to itch, I already knew it's a gal before the scanning of sex. So far this pregnancy still ok cos still within 1st trimester. Let see if I get the same symptoms like the previous. I would love to have another gal but minus the itch. haha...
Hi summer mama, yes, I saw you in April08's thread too. So both of us are quite the same ya.. 1 baby in April08 and another in Jan10. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
And like u, I'm gog for c-sec again this time, kind of no choice lor since the previous 4 were already c-sec. For no. 3, I did tried VBA2C but failed. Went thru labour pain and vagina check etc... but just din dilate fully, in the end, I bo bien, gave up and went for c-sec. 1st time I experienced labour pain, wow, horrible feeling but was fantastic to go thru that as it felt more like delivery. For no. 4, I also waited till labour started then went for c-sec. But this time round, don't think I want to go thru the pain again cos come to think of it, very scare lor. In fact, the tot of going thru another c-sec also very scare. Sigh... difficult to be a woman hor..
Hi maidenleak, I'm sure you can have more kids if you want to. Nothing is not possible. In fact, none of my friends expected me to have so many kids cos I was a "chiong" person in my younger days. haha...
To all mums who envy or salute me for having so many kids, I have to say I'm not that great actually. I have came across families with 5-7 kids with only 1 income. These are the families which I really peifu them. Thru them, I learnt that we can have so many kids if we 1 2, it's just a matter of adjusting our lifestyle to a simpler 1. So mummies out there, jia you ya.... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Morning all [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Jes
Another wonder - 5 C-secs??! My colleague's wife has gone thru 3 C-secs and I think her gynae has advised her that she only has 1 final C-sec left. Advised not to have anymore kids after tat.
Dumbger
I'll be verrrry scared of C-sec. I am praying not to go through it, hehe. My first one was natural w/o epidural too. I think I was more scared of epidural than the labour pains. But I almost broke my hubby's finger when I clenched them too tightly when contractions came.
Joy
sale on what items? Mothercare stuff are really good, but quite expensive too.
