Butterwaffles : i definitely won't mind the smell of medicated oil now. Certainly a relief to my neusea. U mean even i eat sweet before i board the MRT also cannot?? Guess got to do it discretely then.
tsk : Oh, I thought you would have use her for your 1st. Yes, i met her beginning of the week as i'm worried cos i'm overaged mom and its my first pregnancy. So far so good. My fren intro her to me. She put me on Folic & Duphaston now.

Just got back from my 1st scan at 6wk 5day. From the scan, can see a pulsating dot. CRL at 5mm with a visible heartbeat. Can finally heave a lil sigh of relief (tho still not complete relief) for now.
Thinking back, I'm quite surprised at how cool I was - neither excited nor emotional. All the time when gynae was doing the scan, I was simply studying what was on the screen, first to see if there's a fetal pole, next to see if there are signs of heartbeat (supposed to see some wave form on the screen if there's heartbeat). Since this is my 3rd time, I kinda know what to expect.
Anyway, 10min and $99.30 later, it's all over. Next appointment is in 4 weeks time (hopefully I'll only need to see the gynae in 4 weeks time
). EDD is 1st week of Mar. Gynae didn't even tell me until I ask. He also didn't give an exact date and I also can't be bothered to ask why.

I just went to see the gynae again. I am about 7weeks pregnant. We saw the heartbeat of the baby and its growing at a good rate. The feeling is undescribable... the first signs of life.
Lets all have a smooth pregancy!
Does anyone has any comments abt the First Child Incentive program from TMC?
Lovinglife, can you pls add me to the listing?

Hi Mummy ET, good to know that we are in the same LMP [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] but i envy that you have seen your bb heart beat, i have not even spotted a fetal pole...sigh... i have been recommended to go for a 2nd opinion in KK, what do you all think?
Mummy ET,
congrats! I can imagine your joys....I'm looking forward to my lst gynae visit next friday to confirm pregnancy....
Fairie,
you either ovulate late hence in much early pregnancy week than you calculated, give it 2 more weeks or so....or it could be blighted ovum (empty sac w/o baby)...This happened to me and I started have spotting at 8th week......go seek 2nd opinion early if yoou want to make yourself more at ease...

fairie,
My take is that there is no need to seek 2nd opinion... not for this type of case. If I go to gynae A today and don't see anything, I won't see anything with gynae B or C on the same day either.
I understand it is agonizing to have to wait, since I've had my fair share of it. Give it 10 more days. 10 more days is a good length of time for anything to develop, so you may just see something *cross fingers*. I honestly think your gynae knows what he/she is doing. Since this is my 3rd pregnancy, I've observed how they go about things at the initial stages and can pretty much can guess the rationale.
Take it easy for now. Good or bad, don't feel too much attachment.

Mummy ET: If i'm going to 2nd opinion, it will be 21 July 09.
Stileto: without baby, is the sac still able to have yolk sac and continue growing?
Optimus Prime: my hubby felt the same way...he too feels that i should give it another 10 days..and has asked me to take it easy whatever the outcome is...
i'm trying my very best to take it easy too..but as you know...it's rather difficult... thanks for your advice, dear ladies...

Hi fairie,
Optimus asked me about blighted ovum and so I thought I'd share this with you. Babycenter is a good website for pregnancy info:
http://www.babycenter.com.sg/pregnancy/antenatalhealth/scans/blightedovum/
Please don't be too worried and keep your spirits high.

Hi Leia,
Thanks for sharing [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
I read this part: During the scan, the sonographer measures the pregnancy sac and look for evidence of a yolk sac or an embryo. If the pregnancy sac measures more than 20mm, with no evidence of a yolk sac or embryo, then a diagnosis of blighted ovum will be made.
Dr did find a yolk sac in my pregnancy sac, thus does it mean mine might not be a blighted ovum? *keeps fingers crossed*

fairie,
It appears that there can still be a yolk sac for cases of blighted ovum:

But then again, also read these:

Hi everyone
Been missing as have been feeling super lazy, lerthargic and having terrible morning sickness.
Cactus - my MIl is 56 this year, I think. She has in total 2 grandchildren, 1 eldest granddaughter then followed by my son.
My grandmother should be happy gua but when all the little toddlers gather at her house, i think she is very tired. It's a joy to see children playing but it gets terrible when all of them make so much noises. These days, I can't stand noise...
For this 2nd pregnancy, I have no desire to eat at all. I get hungry and try to eat a bit but then when I see the food, I can just sit down there and stare into it for a very long time till my son or hubby come to wake me up from it...
Then just yesterday alone, I vomitted 5 times.
I believe it's going to be like my 1st pregnancy whereby I can eat 8 meals and throw up countless times for the next 10 months..
This is making me weak already. my hubby is very encouraging and supportative towards my condition. He is very ONZ in helping me overcome the vomiting, etc..and very ONZ in helping me pack food again and again...and most importantly, taking care of my firstborn.

samuelboy, yes throwing up does feel better after but i trying very best not to puke because i don't want my medication gone into toilet bowl. sigh.. today is a bad day..
hi ladies...i still feel nauseous a few times a day and still need to go toilet quite often to pee...but no sore and tender breasts like i used to have in the beginning...are the symptoms going away slowly?

I just went for a gynae check today at 6 weeks (due to multiple m/c before #1). I can hear the bb heartbeat. This time round, my MS seemed to be worse cos I actually vomit.. previously #1, I just have no appetite and lose 2-3kg.. Let's hope for the best

I'm only see my gynae this Thursday, hope all will be well too. My MS is getting worse. Now every morning i step into the office, i cheong to the toilet first. First few days, puke nothing out but the feeling is very bad. It feels like a hangover? Like i've drunk too much alcohol the night before and the stomach is churning like mad. This morning, i really puke but it's some digusting foul smelling brown liquid. But really feel better after puking something out....
I've also had some light brownish mucus-like discharge yesterday....shucks. I hope everything will be ok....

lovinglife, when is your first appointment with your gynae?
cactus, it really seems like most of your #1s are boys! But most of my ex-colleagues and my husband's colleagues have girls. If this time your #2 is a girl, maybe can let me know boy or girl easier to discipline, haha!

Hi ladies, I am here to join all of you.
Just had my gynae appt last friday and I was able to see heartbeat at 7wks +.
This will be my #2. #1 is 10.5 months old nia.
And I see a couple of you with Dr LN Sim. I'm with her too!

Hi crayonshinchan! Welcome to the thread!
My #1 is 2 mths older than yours. I'm rather apprehensive on whether I'm able to cope. I'm a full time working mom and hope to continue working. I also want to breastfeed my #2, as I did for my #1... for as long as possible. ( I had to stop nursing my #1 when I realised I was preggie cos worried about miscarrying... better safe than sorry - my mentality). I feel that all these pose challenges. Do you have any plans on how to cope? Perhaps we can share pointers here?
My #1 is a boy. He is very spirited and demanding. Is yours a boy too?
