hi, bena...
understand that u wanna try for a baby boy, mayb u can try this mthd, one of those old wives' stuff my mummy taught me...
(it seems to work for me though...)
but it'll only work if u consume this within the 49 days of conception.
get a rooster (my mum said can see from the crown...) and stuff the 'jin zhen' (the type pple used to cook chup chye) into it and boil it. then, try to consume as much as u can...
but i stayed away from 'jin zhen' for nearly a yr after tt, it was so 'jer-lat'... ;p

ant ting,
i asked my hb that day if my son is extra sticky now that i am preggy and he said "he always sticky, so no diff!" alamak, so i don't know if our kids very sticky = preggy???
linda&lawrence,
last month, i felt pukey for 2 weeks also. it's one of the pms symptoms as well... test again tmr to be sure lor. sometimes, yr hcg levels not high enuf so the pregnancy test can't detect.

ant, my gal cannot walk yet leh, at least not on her own. She is still cruising ard the house. She dare not let go and will cry if i try to release her hand. But she is saying and signing quite a few words already. Hee... gals quite talkative lah.
Not prepared for no.2 ah? Dun worry lah, all things will fall in place nicely. Have no.2 earlier lah, then can close shop earlier oso mah... if you only want to have 2 kids.

Jaspire- same here. My boy prefers to crawl. Cant even stand w/o support but can cruise holdin on to the chairs or sofa. Tats y my hb said too, can close shop liao n I can concentrate on losing wt. hehehe… but I worry abt the childcare arrangement…
Amby- same here. I din hv MS when I was preg w my boy. hopin for a gal if I reali kana this time. hehe

ant..my no 1 i also had gut feeling its a boy though i want a girl. this one gut feeling is a girl, but i'm ok with both.
Bethel, actually i tested on the day i was due. You can prob test in a couple of days n see. I know how frustrating waiting can be. You got any other pregnancy symptoms??

bena,
juz once will do...
not as many times as possible.
u'll puke...
but try to finish as much of the chicken as possible with the 'jin zhen' (aka lily-bulbs), and of coz the double-boiled soup...
trust me, i got so 'jer-lat' that i stayed clear of 'jin zhen' for long time after that...

actually, it was after i tried the mthd, then i read somewhere that the foetus' gender is not firmed up within the 1st 49 days. and for the 1st 6-7 wks, the foetus would b a male, then the x-y hormones would take charge after that to 'decide' if the penis would shrunk to b clitoris...
