(2010/10) October 2010 MTB

Headaches and migraines, for me usually have to sleep it off. Sometimes taking a cold shower and washing my hair helps to relieve the ache.

 


Hi Ivy,



Welcome!



We share the same gynae [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



 
Suwaiwai,



I cupped my palm and turn the btl upside down to get the oil...

Headache headache go away!Don't ever ever come again!Yah,i know 100plus dun help much but just gotta stay hydrated..it's so painful to go through this!If only im a fish for these period!LOL



Belinda,

yah la,is the hormones la..nothing much we can do lor..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

My prev pregnancy,glow and got rosy cheeks!Now..just pray hard the amount of pimples stay and don't grow anymore..it is upsetting and frustrating!I used cooling vitC and ALoe Vera Mask sheets on alternate nights..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]At least those red dots are subsiding!chest oso kana ..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

 
do you think the pimples is a passing phase?? Like suffer now but in a few weeks/mths it will go away? or last throughout the preg?? Same for the headache too??



Princess,

I tried that method, but end up drip oil down the sides.. maybe its just me la.. messy.. hehe

 
Suwaiwai,



For some it will remain thru'out the whole pregnancy and disappear only after delivery.



Some it's just a passing phrase.





 
babydes,



That's true,taking a cold shower definitely helps!I showered almost 4x day and hubby was like ok...we have to get more shower cream..it's finishing too soon!wahaha...

The oil is good enough actually...i do used the cream only at night as it is richer!The oil don't give an oily feel so it can be use in the day!Best use after shower![IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]





LilBluey<

Yeah...our body temp are higher than normal and with this kind of weather lately,it doesn't help at all!Fans and aircon are on full blast and i can still perspire at night!Poor HB gotta tolerate my nonsense and he said he feels like he is in an igloo!LOL..wonder was he an eskimo before (-_-)"

 
Oh no i hope my pimples are just here for these few weeks. Dont want to be pimple face for too long. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

Err.. so Clarins Oil is better than the cream?

 
>Princess - Hope so just kuai kuai and stay as it is...kekeke



I tink also the kind of food i eat la....When i complaint to my hb he will say of course la ...keep eating spicy food....



Btw do your have special craving....mi keep tinking of eating steamfish, double cheeseburger and spicy food (more more chilli)...



i am so tired ....I can hear cracking here and there when i do strecthing...hope the time pass....I wanna go home.......

 
Babydes: i'm using both i feel the oil is better. it seems to absorb to the skin better and has a very nice fragrant smell.



I tried on some palmers sample pack n i hate the smell! Feels like puking so i quickly wash off



suwaiwai: wat i do is b4 I pour, i wrap a tissue around the bottle and jus tilt the bottle to 45 degrees n pour out. if it spills out of the bottle, at least the tissue absorbs the oil.

 
argh... I don't want pimple or headache to last for that long!!! I already pimple face for 7 wks!



er.. I guess I should try cold showers... actually I prefer hot showers, cold water.. is soooo cold!!! Brrr!!

 
Lilac,

So smart!!! Why I didn't think of that.. haha.. now I feel so silly.. hehe

 
suwaiwai: dun say that. we are all here to exchange ideas!! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
yes, the weather's killing me too! N worse aircon not working at home. So i took a cold shower before bedtime last night. So glad when it rained this morning. hopefully it rains again tonite [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Clarins oil better than cream? But i can't stand e smell of clarins oil, esp with morning sickness. want to puke

 
Princess Diamond,



My hb keeps saying I feel so warm to touch all the times lolx ;p~~ the weather hasn't been very kind lately which worsens the condition -_-""





Babydes,



I've a fren who slather on 3 bottles of clarin oil but she said to no avail, her stretchmarks juz grew more and more until she gave up alrd..like some of you mentioned earlier on, stretchmarks are hereditary..





 
Thanks all for the comments on the stretch cream. Maybe I will go try the Clarins oil after my palmer's cream finish then when the oil finish I try the Clarins cream. hahaha..



I already got so many creams to put on. Lotion with UV protection for hands then the palmer's stretch cream on boobs, tummy, butt n thighs and then another cream for my legs. (-_-")

 
Marrissa, I love the smell of the oil! Hahaa... Guess at this point, all our taste and smelling senses change and differs between preggers.

 
haha... seems like I am the lazy one...

Too lazy to put any creams...

Anyway already got ugly "world map" on my tummy area, a gift from my ds... keke...

Thats why I can NEVER EVER imagine myself wearing anything that is going to reveal my world map such as bikini... hahaha...

 
lilac, i thot it smells a bit like lemongrass rite..? dunno la these days my sense of smell and taste a bit screwed up.. lol

 
Marrissa, i cant really make out wats the smell. but i find it v fragrant hahaha yes now all our senses are screwed up. sometimes i eat certain food oso feel the taste weird haha

 
Dear ladies,

I'm feeling so miserable.. Having been vomitting after every meal.. Eat also vomit, dun eat also vomit.. Really driving me crazy. Wonder when will get better.

Have not been having much appetite. Everyday dunno wat to eat.

Yest just cried in front of hubby tell him I very xinku..

 
xin2,



I understand how you feel coz I'm d same for these few weeks. In fact it started since I'm like 3 weeks onwards. Usually will be gone in 2nd tri.



Prob you can take small meals but more meals. If can, drink more water, soup or juices to hydrate yourself.

 
Hi Xin2



Relax ger.... Try eating slowly and bit by bit if can dun tink abt it....cos i have this problem during my first few weeks of pregnancy.....my gynae ask mi to eat slowly also bit by bit..... jia you..

 
xin2,

we understand how you feel...

Have you talked to your gynae abt your vomitting? There are pills which can help you.

If your vomitting is really that bad, you shld seek help from your doc.

As for no appetite, it applies to most of us here. It will be over, mummy... jia you...

We are all here behind you...and with you...



BB: 11w0d

Me: Damn hot sia... but still no appetite...

 
xin2, i totally understand how u feel.. i'm EXACTLY like that.. until yesterday i suddenly felt better. I still puke a bit but generally i'm keeping food down. Today I ate kFC Zinger for lunch! Previously I can't stomach even the slightest hint of spicy food. I hope it improves from here on and hope u will too.

 
Dear gals,

Do you all have the tight feeling at you tummy all the time? I feel so tight at the tummy, like it is going to burst.. and, I'm only 13 weeks now.

 
Thks skies, Belinda, Vivian n marrisa for ur encouragement. Glad to know that I'm not alone feeling all these. Really hope that things will get better soon. I used to enjoy eating a lot but now just dun feel liked eating.

Tastebuds doesn't seem to have much taste.

I've requested for medicine from gynae but also no use, still vomit. So I nvr really eat the med already.

 
Xin2,



Try taking small/light meals instead. Drink more water to keep yrself hydrated.



Hope you will feel better soon.



 
hello....

marrissa,

u still hate the oils smell?hmmmm,changed to the cream la..no smell![IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Xin2

Don't worry,we all go through that and some like me..still feeling the way you are sometimes..

If you are vomiting alot,go consult your gynae to get some medications[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]Keep yourself hydrated and like what other's said,take small meal..it helps,it is very difficult to get food digested for preggers..so small and light meals does helps[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]Hope MS won't stay for long...Im already at week 14 and still having it on n off!CRAP[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]



BELINDA,
