Syrah, chergie,
I'm super bloated, n yesterday had diarrhea in the middle of the night aft being constipated for 2 days. Felt much better aft that n cd actually fall asleep. I tink if prone to constipation, try to eat more fruits n veggies. It seems tat iron supplements in prenatal vitamins can cause constipation so jus need to watch out for that.
My tum is so bloated it looks like I'm ard 3 month, which can't be!! It's all gassssss

Hi Chergie, thanks for sharing the info...feel better now..am drinking lots of water..=)
Hi Julesy and Syrah, I had exactly the same symptoms as you!!!! Bloated and gassy all the time...After peeing, I'd feel a tightness that goes away slowly... However, thank God, that cramps mostly went away.
My gynae also told me to stop dairy products temporarily. Feeling better now. So, cannnot drink delicious Anmum for time being..=(

Hi Syrah & Julesy,
I dun have the tight feeling but tummy very bloated and big too and also looks like few mths oredi. LOL... Keep letting go gas. Am trying to avoid food that creates more wind in tummy like beans and onions. My MIL ask me to refrain eating ginger.
Constipated for few days too and jus manage to pass motion. Arghhhhh....
My butts hurt due to the jab daily and am still having brown discharge. I really think it is not easy being a mum but it is all worthwhile.
Just found out from a frd that we have to avoid eating soft serve ice cream as the machine may contain a bacteria call Listeria that will cause miscarriage. Check out the link here. http://www.suite101.com/content/softserve-ice-cream-and-pregnancy-a64166

Chergie,
My TCM doc says bloated Is gd. It's a preg symptom. I've been avoiding cold stuff for months. No cold drinks, ice cream. Sob sob. TCM believes in keeping the womb warm n hence to avoid such things. Also not to take liang things like dong gua. Basically all gua things r liang.
Do note not to take dang gui now that preggie. This is one herb that we must avoid.
Btw your jab is daily?? I thought progesterone jab to help with the spotting is once like 2x a week at most.

Syrah, you're seeing TCM too? Who is your doc? Mine is Dr Tan Siew Buoy at Thong Chai..i took the herbs for a month, and got preggy. she din say bloated is good, but she did agree that it is a key early preggy symptom..i had different herbs at diff phases of my cycle, like now, the herbs taste extra strong but it keeps my womb warm and in good condition. my bbt is ard 37.0
i was almost gna order bittergourd for lunch yest and then i suddenly recalled i have to stop taking 'cold' food.. but i do still drink cold drinks like once a day [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] weather hot la.

Julesy,
I saw her prev too. Aft abt a yr seeing her I got preggie but sadly ectopic. Aft that I didn't go back to her. U r lucky. Only 1 mth with her n strike. Her an tai med is really really yucky to drink. That's the worst of the bunch. But for sake of bb, we take what's needed.

Hi Chergie,
tum's rly bloated man. i m wearing either dresses or stretchy tights to work everyday - cuz i cant rly sit comfortably in my jeans or pants, tooo tight at the tums.
my tcm doc tells me to wear flats too, even now! at first i thot i cd wear heels n switch over to flats in 2nd trimester when the bb grows bigger. but seems like it's so that our posture does not cause stress to our womb area..not sure also!

Hi ladies,

Julesy, I'm afraid to go back to acupuncture/taking the herbs cos of side effects...plus i'm a malay, and she's from China, so it's gonna be pretty diff to like explain stuff..couldn't believe i got through 2 mths! i can speak like basic conversational mandarin...what herbs are you taking?

Hanis,
My TCM also does acup & herbs. Now that preggie, no need to do acup anymore. I'm just taking the herbs which is powder form. Just add warm water & drink.
My TCM doc is Dr Zou Yu Min at Amk. She speaks minimal English but there's a lady outside at the counter who can help to translate. If u like I can give u her contact.
Julesy's TCM doc won't see new cases if already preggie.
Pinkie,
TCM does help to 'tiao' the body. U may really want to consider it.

Partly becos of previous miscarriage plus the 6 fibroids around my bb. For me it will be c-section. Am 34 this yr oredi so I need to take precaution n be careful.
Hi Julesy,

As I am high risk miscarriage I need bed rest and thk God I am not working.

Eunice,
I had to go through a laparoscopy when I had the ectopic. It's also called key-hole surgery in which they cut 3 to 4 1-cm slits to insert the equipment for the surgery in your belly, sides and pelvic area. Aft the surgery, they'll keep you overnight for observation and then give about 2-3 weeks Hospital Leave.
Hanis and Chergie,
If it's twins, can close shop already! hehehe... Whatever it is, I just wish for healthy bb. It's been a long tough journey.
I just came back from doing another HCG BT. Waiting for the clinic to call with results. Hopefully it's a good increase in HCG level.

Talking about boobs, Chergie, I am sooo afraid to touch them now! Wearing my bra ever so slowly now...they are soo sore! I am also bored, but the moment I check my work e-mail, i get tired/light-headed. Think I'm starting an allergic reaction to work...hehe...
Eunice, what are heaty food? I've been eating rice, soups, fish..not much spicy food...drinking lots of water but still break out...oh well..

BB,
I'll have to go back KK no matter what for the 6-week scan. I'm not sure when they'll finally release us. In any case, if it's twins, I'll most likely stick with Dr Loh.
My pte gynae is Dr Adelina Wong at TMC. Today went to her for BT. She rather not give me the progestrone jab just now as I'm not bleeding now. However she did say to increase my duphaston level to 3x a day instead of 2x. If I'm still concerned, she can scan for me next week. We'll see what's today HCG results is first.

Hanis, yeah mine too. I bot bra w/o underwire to wear and its very comfortable.
Yeah I understand. But pls be careful all Mummies of the light headedness. Get up form bed slowly as we will feel faintish. This is a crucial time for all of us so exercise caution. I am enjoying being treated like a queen.
