hi everyone! i've also been MIA for a while...
can update my EDD to 13 March 2011 please?
i've been having some spotting. Had a scan last week and baby is fine. The midwives here say that so long as there is no pain and it's not bright, red blood gushing unstoppably, it should be fine.
anyone with the same experience? what did your gynaes advise?

I'm left with 5 embies but din use leh. After the IVF babies, I think the hormones regulated my system and kicked start my engine. Dun know I could be so luck to 1 shot 1 kill. Both hubby n me still in disbelieve that I'm preggie lor. This one is singleton, apart from the terrible MS, everything is still manageable. In fact, this one got lots of cravings, last time the other 2 totally no cravings.
I'll probably keep them for one year before disposing them cos I won't be able to give birth liao. By the time I give birth to this one, I'm hitting 40 liao. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
I was thinking of going back to Dr Loh leh. but after what you mentioned that he's encouraging you to go pte, dun think he's free the entertain me kuah! Altho, KKH is a public hospital, I'm more comfortable about their handling of emergency cases. Can rest assure that there are medical stuff 24 hrs. I'm sure you are aware of their Emergency Code thing. I witnessed one such case while I was in my emergency C-section. They are really professional. I told hubby that if I'm going into labour prior to 36 weeks, I'll go straight to 24 hrs clinic first den let them handle. Rather forgo the package fee for the pte gynae, cos it will be cheaper for baby to stay in KKH in Neo-natal or SCN den in pte hospital.

I usually go to the one in Phuket but my next stop would probably be Koh Samui. Been to the one in Phuket for 4 times already, they are a bit run down by now. Personally prefer thailand bcos of their hospitality, the one in Bintan not too good.
As for stretch mark, yes it will fade over time. There's many different type of creams and oil to help with stretch marks. It depends on individual preferences and how religiously you are applying it. During my first pregnancy, I did not have much stretch mark, probably it's genetic or probably bcos I apply generously twice a day.
I was prescribed a very simple and cheap moisturising cream from National Skin centre ~ Aqueous Moisturising Cream @ $4 plus per tub (dun know if they have increase the price), since it's cheap I use 1 tub per week, literally applying my whole body.
Morning will wake up, take my shower den apply. Den after evening shower, will apply again. Never never apply moisturiser on dry skin, that will make it more irritable and drier. My dermatologist friend told me that moisturiser needs fluid to work, so it's best to apply over damp skin, cos there's fluid on the skin, making the rubbing in easier. If you apply on dry skin, the cream will have to extract fluid from under your skin before it can be absorbed back into your skin. So if you notice, sometimes when you scratch you leg, den it appear that dry skin is coming off, and if you quickly just apply cream, you'll realise that it's more itchy right? that's the reason. Hope this will help you understand how our skin works.

Allets: Lower abdominal achiness: As the muscles and ligaments that support your growing uterus stretch, you might notice some pain on the lower sides of your belly (technically called round ligament pain). This is perfectly normal — but if the pain becomes severe, let your practitioner know. (From What to Expect)

Last night at 15 week I got my first leg cramp, damn sian, so early. Caused by having to stand in heels during my event for hours, on a Sunday some more.
Starfruit12,
The usual price of Clarins stretchmark cream is S$82. Ocean at Outram sells at 35% discount (S$53), whereas Pink Beauty at Ang Mo Kio sells at 30% off (S$57).
Ocean Shop is at People Park Complex, above OG outram. There are a no. of similar concept shops. U can compare prices. Yesterday, i went to outram. Think Ocean and Swanson (2nd floor) sold out stretchmark cream, so dunno how much Swanson is selling. Anyway, i bought it at the corner shop (called lay hwa, i think) on the same floor as Ocean shop.
Pink Beauty at AMK is opposite Koi bubble tea, besides the maxi cash (right shop name?) pawnshop -- the one michelle advertise.

Morning ladies, I got a pimple coming on my nose. The red dot is becoming so obvious, so sad...I have not been applying makeup since my pregnancy now with is I even more ugly. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
I am experiencing "sng,sng" at the lower back somewhere above the buttock, and some thing like muscle ache at the lower tummy area.
I tried Mug on Sat, although it has no caffine as stated, but I guess because it still carbonated drink, after that I experienced burping which I dislike...like MS, anyone have share the same experience?

Nowadays I been having body aching, always can't sit still in a position for long. Leg also "sng sng" esp before bedtime.
Even when I sit on my sofa watch TV, I feel my body aching and need to keep changing my sitting position every 5 - 10 mins.
Anyone also keep changing sitting position?

I've not tried Bali so I can't comment. For the one I usually frequent, just flight and accommodation alone will cost about close to 4k for 2 for about 5D/4N in a pool villa (they'll normal upgrade you to a higher grade when u get there) You have to search for those tour agent who will give good deals. Booking straight with the resort will definitely cost more. Average about US 800 per nite.

Hi Milkshake,
Yes, for me i cant be in a position for long.. be it lying down or even sitting comfortably.. even if it's comfortable intially, after a while, have to change position if not will experience discomfort near the tummy area..
though they say only when stomach gets bigger, sleeping on the back might become diff, i think am already experiencing that.. cos i cant sleep on my back as the back will ache.. now sleeping on my left side (read that it's better for the blood to flow to placenta)..
as for the sng feeling on my feet, i attributed to leg feeling cold.. so nowadays, i will wear socks to sleep.. machiam like school kids going to school.. haha..
regards
