hi sagittarius.. mine EDD is ard 8 March... you still dunno the EDD is it?
dreamababy: i think it is more accurate to check w your gynae when they measure the size they will be able to estimate the EDD.. most ppl advise going during the 7th - 8th week...

Hi Lynn (ironic cos that's my actual name..),
When I was delivering #1, mid-wife asked me whether I drank chicken essence... i asked why, she said that chicken essence actually increase blood circulation by THINNING your walls, which leads to complications in childbirth, so maybe you want to check around if it's ok to take it at all? I'm not sure... I took birdsnest religiously and turned out I had a peh-peh baby so I guess THAT works!

gd late evening ladies...
hadnt been feeling well lately. guess the last two weeks has been the worse period of my pregnancy so far. I couldnt even cook a simple dish without feeling very tired afterwards. The worse feeling happened yesterday when I saw 'stars' and broke out in cold sweat while cooking. Hubby was napping and I had to lie down on the kitchen floor and wait till I felt better.
I do hope this ms will get better.. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Aniwae on the topic of Oscars, my gynae seeked my opinion if I wanted to opt for it. It doesnt give the exact results and only says whether you're 90% safe healthy baby or you might be at risk of 1:300(which is high) of having fetal abnormalities.
Anyone has made the decision to go for it?

Hi Blue_y,
yeah I also feel the same thing, last week was a complete disaster at work... couldn't function, write emails addressed to wrong people, today even check into wrong hotel... aiyoh I tell you I am complete bimbohead this last week!
Hi Serlina,
EDD is approximation only, as baby grows the EDD gets more or less on the right track [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

dreamababy,
sorry for late reply.....the pregnancy calculator is a good tool if u want to track how many wks u are pregnant base on your input on LMP, mens cycle plus it will also calculate for u your EDD. however we can't gurantee that our ovulation is on the dot so after a couple of scan, your gynae will advise u on your new EDD and confirm with u how many wks u r pregnant. ie base on the size of your gestation sac, yolk sac etc.
As to when you want to see the gynae, it all depends on individual. for ladies who experience little/no discomfort and no spotting problem, they may see the gynae at 7-8wks because that's when u should expect to see fetal pole and heartbeat. any earlier, u will only see the sac. however some ladies would want to go early to make sure that everything is fine and to start taking folic acid which the gynae will prescribe. u can get folic acid from the pharmacy so it is advisable to start taking once u know u r pregnant. I know that some ladies take it when they are planning for a baby.

thanks for your reply. At least can gimme a more definite thing on what to do next.....
If keep on feeling crampy, would it pose a problem? I would feel crampy especially at night from after dinner and also in the middle of the night... .This has made me woke up because of the cramp..... Is this normal ah ??
I called up to make the appointment and the nurse say to fix the appointment on the 17 aug... which is about 2.5 weeks from my menses due date leh.... So wont be too late hor ??
Do you feel anything during the 1st few weeks, other than the crampy feeling? Oh btw, not everybody will feel the nausea one rite?? Now other than my bloatedness especially at night...., nothing else i can feel leh... the kind of feeling i dunno how to describe.... Or am I thinking too much???
And when onwards cannot wear high-heeled shoes ah ??

morning everyone,
dreamababy, it is normal to feel cramp because your uterus is getting ready to expand. however if it is very painful or has bleeding or spotting together with cramp, go see gynae immdediately.
2.5 wks from your mens due date prob means u will be be abt 6wks? u mentioned ur cycle is 40dys so maybe earlier.
high-heel shoes ah, if u can still balance la haha, it's a strain for your body so try not to wear them. besides pregnant lady can get quite clumsy. when i was pregnant with my #1 always fall. so avoid the risk lor....

jon01josh03 - gyane told me that we can do it between weeks 11-13. The nurse told me it will take 45 mins if baby is in right position, otherwise possibly 2-3 hours. I am not sure about the triple blood test, i am also doing a blood test on that day but not sure if it is the triple blood test.
The Oscars package at TMC also include a detailed scan at 5th month.
If i am not wrong, Oscars is to test for down sydronme and detailed scan is to check all organs of the baby to ensure that it is fine.

jon01josh03 - Amino test is more accurate as far as i know but carry a very very very small risk of miscarriage from what gynae told me.
Usually i heard amino is perform when oscars results are not favorable. But there are some gynae that advice to do amino straight as they do not want the mummys to worry about the Oscars.

dreamababy, relax no pt worrying.
i had cramp also and it's quite painful. (1 wk before my mens is due and then after i discovered i'm pregnant) Then got spotting....went to see gynae after i missed period for a wk. My first scan was when i was abt 5wks. gynae did a v-check and said that there was some brown stain inside but good thing is not red. my tummy U/S scan show only a 7mm gestation sac and nothing else. He gave me hormone pills and i saw him 6days later. my gestation sac grew to 12mm and he could see the yolk sac. i'm supposed to see him again next wed when he say must see hb and fetal pole.
u don't worry, cramp is normal as long as there is no heavy bleeding. my cramp got better in abt a wk time after seeing him. It is normal to get cramp in the early stage. so relax ok [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

I experienced the same timing of the cramp.... On my DPO 12, was a sharp cramp which feel like mense cramp lor .. I thought no hope liao as usual. Then only when I missed my menses and still felt the cramp, I tested because my Basal temp went up on that morning... which is the 1st time i had such a high basal temp ever since I started taking temps.
U mean as long as no spotting or bleeding, my bb will be ok? I just sms my hubby to tell him that i'm worried leh cos keep on cramping.... but somemore the cramp like mense cramp but of cos not those painful ones... it's just light ones.... sometimes can be in the middle of the night when i'm sleeping also ... but also have cramp throughout the whole day lor ...
Tats why started to panic and called the gynae's clinic and wanted a scan asap to know what's happening at least rather than to keep myself in suspense for 2 weeks for the scan which the nurse arranged for me lor.. I told the nurse that i'm worried and got cramps... And the nurse was nice enough to slot me in for tomorrow's afternoon scan which she told me the earliest slot is next wed.....
Do u feel nausea or any morning sickness that u experience? Now u in which wk?
