Is it normal to have light spotting? I hv it this morning after pee. Ate my medicine that kk prescribed to be taken daily (duphaston, progynova, folic). Had stayed on bed whole morning beside coming down for breakfast.
The spotting was like drips of light pink blood.
It stop while I m on bed. Just now went to pee n had some more spotting. I m back on bed.

Hi ivftwins,
I m also 5 weeks 2 days preg [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] had my first visit to gynae last evening and saw my baby - aka 8.9mm wide little circle on e monitor...
I also have light spotting issue where I find tiny streaks of pink on my pantiliner. I told e gynae that, n he say it is fairly normal, gave me some med, forgot e name, to stabilize Mu womb that makes me super wooZy and sleepy...
The best piece of advice that I got from him is to enjoy e pregnancy, u may read plenty of online articles saying don't drink coffee, dun eat certain type of fruits, dub wear makeup... Etc... But in fact all those articles, studies are all inconclusive. Which makes me feel v safe and empowered.
So dun worry, get plenty of rest, feel happy, talk to ur little sesame sized baby and hope for e best.
Jiayou

Kimmy, haven't been seeing you around. Did you go to Dr Christine Yap after all? I went to her yesterday and liked her a lot. She doesn't sweat the small stuff but is properly concerned about the important stuff. I think I have a brain and read a lot so do know a bit about pregnancies and I liked it that she talks to me at my level and addresses my concerns rather than some gynaes who just say don't worry, leave it to me, or we'll discuss when it gets to that stage.
Constipation: supposed to be caused by hormones that make our digestive system slows down so food travels slower through the digestive track which maximises absorption of nutrients. Which of course means that tonnes of water is also absorbed increasing the chances of constipation. Can be reduced by eating loads of fiber and drinking lots of water, which I've been trying very hard to do but still I hate the slowed down digestion. It means even hours after consuming food there's loads of stuff left in the stomach to be thrown up. yucks.
Update: I finally know my EDD: 14 Jan 2010! Fingers crossed everything goes well from now till then. Hope everyone in this forum have a smooth pregnancy!

Dear all mummies
Hi, really great to have stumble upon this portal where all mothers can share info, tips and experience with one another. been very enriching so far reading each and everyone's posts.
I am 7 wks and am due 06/01/2011. An unplanned pregnancy usually rocks the house. Am trying to embrace the aftermath shock and looking forward to life's new journey.

Thank you everyone for the encouragement. Am trying to keep my mind positive n happy.
After tha jab yesterday, it's better today. Do not know if due to dupaston, but the feeling of nausea is bad. Absolutely no appetite for main meals n I started drinking cold water. Feels better after carbonated water or cold drinks. And I m beginning to hate the taste of plain water. Bought Ribena to mix w water. I live food but now I hate thinking wat to eat.

Hi reia - Will go to tmc first then make decision, if they dun bother to explain our question then will change immediate for sure. Yeah, I have been trying to drink more water, i drank yogurt drinks as well, first day help, but after that back to normal. Will know my final EDD tml, quite excited...haha
Congrat! Mae ho & Charleen..welcome to the thread..
Hey pinky,, I cant wear most of my skirt and pants too, can still button up but feel very uncomfortable, I knew I gain weight, can't escape tomolo.but when think of the little one in the stomach, still feeling happy right...
Hi Charleen- Not sure about the male vs female, guess it depend on individual..many female gynae are good too..not sure about the poop, but be extra careful during 1st trimester..always stay happy and relax is very important..yup, many ppl say the rate is about the same, you can compare at the link that i gave last time

Hey ivftwins- ya, agree...cold drink can calm my nausea down, but heard it's not good to drink cold stuffs, so I have been control, control and control......

charleen>> male or female gynae depends on how comfortable you are.. remember that the gynae will deliver your baby and more or less they will see everything de.. =x so you must make the choice.. personally i went to a very old male gynae.. he was very professional on my first visit and i didnt feel uncomfortable at all.. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] remember.. if you dont feel comfortable with the gynae.. must change!
ivftwins>> get some sour plums to suck on.. if you cant stand plain water, den go get small ice cubes to suck on slowly.. probably will feel better as well.. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] i'm trying to control my soft drinks and cold water intake.. but havent been able to succeed much.. hee..
kimmy>> thankfully i got a short break from work coming.. so i can stay home and continue expanding.. lol..
for those buying folic acid from pharmacy.. can try getting them from JB as well.. i just got mine at 10 tablets for RM0.50..
is it true that we cant do manicure and pedicure as the chemicals inside the nail polish will affect the baby?

Dunno if related but must control cold drinks intake. I m still having dull cramps, bloated stomache n light spotting/bleeding. I hope this is ok n can tahan till my first scan on 8 june. I m looking at my last visit to dr loh where he did vaginal scan n print the baby sac photo.
Happy! Positive!!!

Pinky_J : Its ok to do mani and padi, cause even my first pregnancy i used to do it every other week.
Nimkulut : I think its ok to tell your parents that you are pregnant but for friends and employer maybe you'll like to wait abit.
For me i have no choice to inform my boss at this stage as im energyless and im unable to run the operations as i work in a hotel.

Hi Charleen,
I remember my 1st child on Jan 2009, normal delivery with forcep total cost about 4k plus and I need to top up about 1k plus at that time. so i belive the max we can use from medisave is not more than 3k.
i am suffering now coz got flu....
furthermore, just went to washroom and found some bleeding (is a bit like a brown color)... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

evlin: take care...are you taking flu medication?
Experienced mummies, can we take over-the-counter meds like panadol, danzen etc if we get a common cold or cough?
On the questions on medisave, i was reading this booklet call 'Maybe Baby' published by MCYS. Some useful info inan article inside states:
- Medisave Maternity Package: you can withdraw up to $450 of Medisave for the pre-delivery med expenses. This is in addition to the Medisave that can be used for delivery.
- For delivery expenses, the withdrawal limit depends on delivery mode($900 for a normal delivery to $2850 in case of a C-section with hysterectomy).
Think more info is available on http://mycpf.cpf.gov.sg
P.S. I am going for my 1st appt tomorrow! So excited! Can't wait. Did you guys take time off work to go or took leave? I told my boss I am going for a med appt and he went:'ok..but you are coming back after the appt?..sianz, I was hoping to work from home after that cause TMC is so near my place and my office is in Tuas...

Hi, Im having my first.. Doc told me my EDD on 27 Jan 11.
First day of last mensus on 29th Mar. Tested positive on 12th May. But currently im only 1 mth's pregnant as on 21st May. Mayb due to the fact tat i hv irregular mensus?
Was v suprise & shocked tat Im preggy bcos my left fallopian tube is block. So actually only 50% of conception. Moreover, Im v stress preparin for my customary on Oct 10 (alrdy ROM on Oct 08) at the moment~ Nv tot abt it at all.
Im hving cramps & abit of spottin as well. Did my 1st scan on 13th May, tat time cldnt see my bb yet. Doc say I might hv a chance of hvin an ectopic preg bcos of my block tube~ Or else is tat my BB is still too small to be seen. So he did a blood test for me. Was very worried.
Went for a 2nd scan on 21st May. Luckily BB can be seen, bt v small. Only 4 wks old & 1cm big. Due to e cramps & spotting, was given 'an tai' medic to stabilize. Going to 3rd scan on 3rd Jun to check my BB's heartbeat. Hopefully everything will be fine for us~
Nw tat I hv to change my Customary to Aug 2010 instead. Quite a stress period for me ya~

I do experience neuseous at times bt no vomitings.. Initially abit giddiness bt nw nt so much anymore.. E only big prob is I gets tired v ezily.. Yes, n hot flushes most of e time.. Alws wkes up in e middle of e nite.. Sometimes is feelin hot or breathless or thirsty else to pee.. My skin wil itch ezily at times, breasts tenderness & tummy bloatedness..

@Jerlyn - Hi, welcome to the forum and congrat!!
Those things that you mentioned are normal, feeling lazy, sleepy, breast tenderness.etc...
Went for 1st gynae check today, im now 6 weeks 6 days, so excited to see baby heartbeat, it's so fast...and now feel more relief and happy...
My EDD has changed to 11 Jan 2011, doctor say many number 1, but then again, doctor say normally won't be that accurate & will be around 10 days earlier...if 10 days earlier then will be new year baby on 1 Jan 2011, also got many number 1..haha
@pinky - ppl advice to shop around 7 months because now not consider 100% stable yet..but of course, if got great offer, y not..hahha
oh ya, my nausea getting worse today and doctor say it will be like that for few months...:-(
Rest well all mummies

Hi all mummies,
are there any special food/fruits we should refrain from?
I heard we cannot eat pineapple or Chinese herbs that are too 'cooling'...

I wished i could stop work like u Jerlyn [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Anyway ready your post about the Hotel Banquet reminds me so much of me when i had my first child.. I had done my ROM but not customary and due to the pregnancy i had to bring the hotel wedding forward... I even took my wedding pictures being 4 months pregnant... But for my 1st bb tummy did not show that much...
