bbribena, TPY = Toa PAyoh

 

[bbribena]

Lena Sun, the pulling feeling around the lower abdominal is mostly cause by uterus stretching.

 

[sparkle_bee]

BBribena... think TPY is the common abv for Toa PaYoh?

The bust lotion is not sticky... will absorb in skin v fast.. i like..



Lena... wow 9 weeks... i shld b 6 weeks + will see gyne tmr... really cannot wait to see beanie..

yaya.. i keen REN REN pee so got the pressure and cramp ard V area when i finally pee... =(

 

[bbribena]

feimei, Ah!! I see! Not very familiar with that area, no wonder it doesn't ring a bell.lOL!

 

[feimei]

bbribena, thanks for ur info...tink will try out the sample from dumex n c how...maybe wkend will drop by Clarins counter, c if they can give some smaples anot.... =P hope i dun sound cheapo....kekekekeke

 

[feimei]

[lovebyte08]

Fei Mei,

Don't worry, you just tell the girl at the counter that you have sensitive skin and would like to try a sample of the stretch mark oil. She will understand la. =)

 

[motherdew]

feimei, the cocoa butter doesn't contain caffeine. i've looked at a few brands, including Palmer - they are all so expensive! that's why i went for J&J instead, since going to apply daily, i wanna use something more economical. haha...

 

[stefie2104]

I have started using stretch cream since 1 month ago, so belly grow very fast.



I alternate with Clarins Tonic Body oil and Topi cream.



Topi cream can get from Unity Living Pharmacy (Higher range outlets as compare to normal unity). Price is $27.55/200ml.

 

[lovebyte08]

Just finished lunch like 20 mins ago and my tummy is still hungry -_-



My baby is a bottomless PIT and a good eater. DIAO. Going to chi dao wo chiong. =)Chi dao wo fei!



BTW doctor say avoid caffine tea but green tea is ok. I feel like bubble tea... bubble green tea can take anot?

 

[lena22]

Hi Feimei & Sparklebee: Thanks... i was happy to hear that i'm 9 week instead of 8 too... So hoping for first trimester to end so the MS goes away.... Haha... Will be goin for scan around 3 weeks later to test for down syndrome... Hope everything goes well... Really cannot stop worrying at times... Now i know how difficult it is to be a mummy.... Lots of tins and worries on the mind...



Feimei: Ask for sample not consider cheapo la.. better to try first in case buy le not suitable den waste $$$$ rite... we gotta save more $$$ now for BB too.... hehehe... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Hi Sparklebee: Ren pee not good leh... try not to k... I ren very short while only can feel the pressure liao... You ren very long le then feel the pressure or?



If any mummies wants to try clarins, maybe i can ask my sister if got sample or can get a cheaper price anot...



Hi BBribena: Thanks for the advice... I did ask my gynae too and he said it's normal... But at times, i do experience it quite often.... Have to move slower so helps to lessen it...

 

[stefie2104]

[muddypaws]

I'm in my 10th week too! Little vomitting now, sleep through the night, eating every 2 hours, and have a super keen sense of smell! Only problem is I'm often overwhelmed by a great sense of sadness (pre-natal blues?)... To everyone here in this thread, hang in there! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



I cooked claypot rice to bring to office for lunch today... super yummy, and definitely made myself and kiddo happy! Gonna see gynae tomorrow to check on kiddo before i fly off to santa-land this weekend.

I also kan cheong how my beanie leh[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] We will update each other.

I just had mine yesterday, my dogs also had extra liao for the dry food[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Hi Lena,



I am very scare of the OSCAR scan, hope this time round everything is okay and healthy[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] Keeping my fingers crossed and praying very hard[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

[stefie2104]

Hi Lena,



Ha!! ha!!! Then we must choose same hospital easier for Dr Woody[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



I think mine could be on 25 May for OSCAR scan at TMC. Must be positive that baby is okay[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] Keeping fingers crossed.

 

[p00h]

muddypaws, hope u enjoy your claypot rice.. not cheap skate lar, you are saving for the milk powder and diapers, and the best for little one..



seems like alot of mommies here are >8wks.. sobsob, long way for me.. counting down to sat gynae visit..

 

[lovebyte08]

I wouldn't mind going to bugis street to look for stretchy pants le but hor... can it fit my elephant sized butt?

 

[feimei]

stefie: i noe rest is not one or two wk issue...need to do it constantly...i will try lol... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] ok, will go to buy the big pot tmr....



i oso very worried for the OSCAR scan...thou' it's still early for me to worry but somehow, my turn will come.....i oso praying hard...very very very hard....hahahhaa [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[muddypaws]

I wish I can take MC to rest too... boss isn't very pleased with my MC so I had to cut short my rest and go back to office.



For MTBs who are small-sized, do consider going to Bugis street or This Fashion to get baby doll dresses. It's about $10 a piece, and throw on a cardi and it's good for work. Pants-wise, I got some stretchy pants for casual and work from Bugis too for $15. You're right... every little cent counts! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[stefie2104]

I am old mtb, so I am much more worried than all of u here, risk is higher for me leh.

 

[cherrry]

Lena... im same doctor too! im going for my scan on 21/5 too! lol~!!

 

[p00h]

when is OSCAR done??

 

[feimei]

p00h, is to scan for bb whether they got down symdrome or any defects etc...not scary lah...just a scan to ensure ur lil ones r free from all these defects....just a ensurance....u can choose not to do...but i believe all mummies will want to do it...for the sake of our lil ones...

 

[feimei]

win, hope we did not scare u, just a normal scan, dun worry too much...everything will be fine on your lil beanie....i just over-react...sorry!

 

[lovebyte08]

From what I know for OSCAR, they will do a scan, a urine test and a blood test. Usually done during week 12 of pregnancy.

 

[p00h]

oic.. feimei, i thought its something very scary.. opps.. 1st time mum is like tat.. everything also dunno.. hee
