Sunesis - Which experience? Throwing up? Haha...



I am also throwing up like shit... Last night so xin ku till i wanna die...

 

[lai_lai]

I threw up Milo n curry puff last night, one of my minor pukes. Usually, I try not to puke...'cause of medicine...And for me, drinking ribena helps...I try to dilute ribena for fear of gestational diabetes...

[sunesis]

gnulyl5 - hate the vomiting sia...



was reading in some other thread, some mummies have MS all the way till delivery... goodness!!!



argh...



anyone getting confinement lady yet?

 

[tigg3r]

summer's mommy



Can understand how your are feeling.. I'm going thru the same situation as you. One gal was down with high fever of 40 degree last weekend and now the other gal down with flu, cough and fever also. Totally no sleep at all. Every 4 hourly got to give Ventolin and Flixotide Evohaler. And my MS is more serious in the nite rather den day time.. Also very exhausted.



Hang in there. Soon it'll be over and before you realised, MS will be gone. Our hCG peaks from week 9 to week 12. That's why MS will be very bad around that time. Will gradually drop when we reach week 16 and usually by den the MS will be gone. Just hang in there. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



(Excerpts from amercianpregancy.org)

Guideline to hCG levels during pregnancy:

hCG levels in weeks from LMP (gestational age)* :



3 weeks LMP: 5 - 50 mIU/ml

4 weeks LMP: 5 - 426 mIU/ml

5 weeks LMP: 18 - 7,340 mIU/ml

6 weeks LMP: 1,080 - 56,500 mIU/ml

7 - 8 weeks LMP: 7, 650 - 229,000 mIU/ml

9 - 12 weeks LMP: 25,700 - 288,000 mIU/ml

13 - 16 weeks LMP: 13,300 - 254,000 mIU/ml

17 - 24 weeks LMP: 4,060 - 165,400 mIU/ml

25 - 40 weeks LMP: 3,640 - 117,000 mIU/ml

Non-pregnant females: <5.0 mIU/ml

Postmenopausal females: <9.5 mIU/ml



* These numbers are just a GUIDELINE-- every woman’s level of hCG can rise differently. It is not necessarily the level that matters but rather the change in the level.





So for now, I only take those food I can take in small quantity. And I sometimes, will skip dinner since I'm definitely will throw up. Only take Jacob cream cracker with milk works better at that timing. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

[piggypatty]

Hello mummies,

Hope everyone is fine! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Thank you so much for all the prayers and support. It's been a joy knowing all of you

This is the end of my journey.

I had a D&C on fri. Gynae will do a kyrotyping as this is my second consecutive miscarriage. The bb stopped growing at week 6. The kyrotyping will enable gynae to determine the cause of the miscarriage. Is it due to hereditary chromosomes or random? She will then be better able to advise me on course of actions for future pregnancy.

I am very peaceful this round. I am not sure why. Perhaps I felt that I am very comfortable with my current gyane/nurses. Prof Mary Rauff is very professional and the nurse was so understanding when i requested to delay my d&c for a week hoping for a miracle. my bb has indeed stopped growing. In fact, it had shrunk. I will move on, rebuild my body and will start trying next year. Hee..perhaps i can still make it in time for Rabbit bb.



Mummies : Please take good care of yourselves. Be positive and rest well. Love u all.

Hugs....

Hello piggypatty

Rach

yes I like dr koh. He said the same jokes to everyone as per comments online. My hb seemed to take it in while I told myself inwardly oh yes these were the jokes ppl talked abt when they see him... My hb comfy with male gynae can liao. And just 4 places behind me, dr koh went to deliver but was back real quick. I had to rush back from hdb hub even...

On that day, it was my hb's bday but we had a minor car accident. Damn funny day with all the good and bad things all happening in 1 day...

 

[gnulyl5]

Good morning mummies!!!



Anyway i'd like to ask you all.. anyone got fish oil supplement from your gynae already? If yes, would anyone be kind enough to tell me what brand and maybe paste a picture here?



Cos seems like SGH gynae dont provide fish oil supplement lei... Sian 1/2... Have to source for my own one...

 

[tigg3r]

Gnuly

This time round, my new gynae gave me DHAxtra softgel

[sunrise2011]

Good morning Mummies!



Is it ok to sleep after 1 hr of meals??? I scared at the rate of sleep after 1 hr of meal, i will grow fat in a short time.

 

[tigg3r]

Tweety



Dun worry, you will loose the weight when you breast feed. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[jazz2]

morning ladies,



had fun reading all of your postings.



I am also having a case of bad headache and giddy spells. Axe oil is now my best friend.



thanks arimez for the updates.. now i can eat bakuteh



Ate sotong on sat and now suffering from hives. itchy itchy now.

 

[gift_of_life]

I am going to see Gynae shortly...hope everything is ok....

 

[benbenfish8083]

gals,

Went KK 24hrs woman clinic and had a scan n check up! HENG... BB is fine... heard the heatbeat and measure the BB, BB now is 4.4cm (10th week, this week 11th week).. haha!!!

even i still feel some headache, but after knowing BB is fine... headache also nvm le!! wahahaha!!!



thanks u gals for all the concerning!! heehee~~

 

[jazz2]

ST, what happen?

 

[mercsboy]

take care piggypatty!

 

[sunrise2011]

Mrs Teng,



Dont want to put on so much weight during pregnancy. Wait very hard to go back to the original weight after birth....



Is it true that not everybody will retain their original weight? I think some mums look fatter after birth.

 

[mercsboy]

 

[patience]

me too... worried about putting on weight throughout pregnancy.



Audrey, nice to hear from you. I seldom pop in over the weekends. You gotta decide yr gynae soon, I'm sure Jocelyn Wong is good, just that to get a first appointment with her, it's a long wait. Better call soon.



Fish, next time if you have giddy spells, try napping with your legs slightly incline on your pillow. It works for me.

 

[mercsboy]

talking about putting on weight...

i think i look more fat then pregnant now lor!

 

[sunesis]

Hey 2Ks,



add me!!!



My EDD is 20-Mar-11. Dr. Woo Bit Wah, shld be going back to Mt.A and i stayed at Punggol!



today back to work after 1 wk of MC. Very tired...

My tummy already showing... my mum said is the leftover fr my no.1... (-_-")



I hope I can make it through today...

 

[sunesis]

Oh... mine is bb no.2



i hope this is the final one!

 

[benbenfish8083]

Chen,

thanks.. i will try this way... but i hope no more next time.. reli scare me and hubby!!!

 

[mercsboy]

sunesis: added! refer to the revised table..



fish: any herbal stuff, if u want can take after 2nd trimester...dang gui if 1 or 2 pcs should be ok de. but then as i mentioned, outside herbal stuff their quality of herbs might be those cheap kind de...

if u loves herbal chix, u can buy those packet one back, take out the dang gui, and add dangshen inside, can add more wolfberries for taste..

hopes it helps...

 

[benbenfish8083]

Chen,

thanks.. i will try this way... but i hope no more next time.. reli scare me and hubby!!!

 

[angelwind]

2ks

my edd is 14 mar 2011, you can fill in the blank liao



fish

can i check with u where is the 24hrs woman's clinic that u went to?

actually for giddy usually gynae wont "entertain". when i had ms so bad until i need to be on drip + fainting, when i asked my gynae what to do (being typical 1st time mummy), she said "there's nothing much we can do except to wait for it to pass"...

only lots of rest can alleviate some of our suffering

 

[tigg3r]

Tweety



After birth, I went down to 9 kg below my pre-preggie weight. And now when I got preggie again, I started off with the same weight as I was pre-preggie the last time.



It's not necessary means you'll gain lots of weight after preggie, it's how you control your diet. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[benbenfish8083]

2Ks,



yes yes..after tt time of itchy mouth.. i will never buy any herbal soup outside le!!! since i have slow cooker at home.. it's actually very simple for me to cook some soup if mummy is not cooking for us!!

 

[benbenfish8083]

pixiepixel,

i called my own gynae clinic last Sat... the nurse also dont reli wana entertain me, she said all the gynae are fully booked.. unless there's blood, then will treat as emergency case...

then my frenz and gals here suggest me to go KK.. so.. i discuss with hubby, we head to KK, there's 24hrs woman clinic in KK (women tower). i didnt wait very long.. after she examed me.. then i told the doc i want to have a scan to reli make sure my BB is good! so.. she arranged me to another room and had a scan for me, hubby and myself manage to see our BB, so much bigger than two weeks ago!!!

so.. my suggestion is... if u reli wana to see gynae for any case, and ur gynae is fully booked.. u can go KK 24hrs woman clinic.. and it's quite cheap actually.. the whole bill (consultation + scan + urine tests).. only $100++...

 

[mercsboy]

pixiepixel: updated!



mrs teng: lucky u! u having twins leh, yet u can shred off those weight..

for me, i am still stuck with 8kg leh! sob! have lose any, then now cycle repeat again!

 

[tigg3r]

Fish



My gynae was telling me bcos when we sleep in the night, we are actually fasting, so when we get up in the morning, we'll have giddy spell cos we are over hungry liao. Plus the MS, we are already taking lesser den what we normally consume, so we are actually far behind our usual food intake.



Next, the reason why some of us feel giddy or more nauseous in the evening is bcos we were exhausted for the day. Esp for some mummies who have to work during the day time. Our body now needs to function for 2. So try, to rest more during the day if you can.





I experimented her theory and it works for me:

Wake up in the morning, eat biscuit and a packet of milk before getting up.



Rest at least 3 hours in the afternoon ~ and my MS and giddiness at nite wasn't so bad.
