Hi jgwee, yes. I stayed with MIL. I told my boss already as well cos i am working solo in APJ thus she needs time to plan ahead. =) I am feeling so sick last week that i told half day MC, and i felt my boss will understand early pregnancy well. She is kind enough to allow me to work from home if i am too tired. So telling her early, is good and i got all the support from work i need now.

PX22, wait till 5 mths? u sure can wait? shld tell earlier, then at least they can take care of you too. esp when u meet them looking so tired.
i will tell parents and PIL once confirm heartbeat. so i can be queen for longer period. *grin* cos after approx 7 mths of being a queen, i will be "slave" for the rest of my life...

But i tot there is the supersition on not telling during first trimester? Hahah true also 5mths most prob everyone can see.. Having a hard time keeping it, cos i use to smoke and i quit once i was positive, and now I have to find excuses when my colleagues asking me for smokes.. zzzzz
Wendy, phew! so i'm not the only one with skin breaking out! 
ET2008 - yes! I have sore breasts most of the day, and bloated tummy too!
All the best to all the mommies out here, and to those going to their first gynae visit soon! We'll be fine ya?
if really there's a gathering after our 1st tri, even if in the north, i'll try my best to go up!

wendy, only 7 months (if you tell close ones after confirm heartbeat). so must fully utilize our privilege. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Px22, i mean just telling my parents and PIL and my godma. just close ones. i will only announce when my stomach begin to show after 1st tri. but dun have to wait too long before my stomach show - at the rate i am gobbling up food.

hi pillow4, yes. I only tell my close ones like both side parents, boss and hubby plus a few best friends. I think we need alot of support and encouragement from them. Thus, i dun mind sharing with close ones. Yes, it is best not to disclose during 1st tri but i think it is fine to share with close ones? Especially, we need them and i am staying with MIL, just in case anything happened and they know what is going on at hme. I have a hard time keeping it a secret with close ones.. Haha..
Hi rosegal, yes.. it is so amazing how baby form!
Hi rosegal, yes.. it is so amazing how baby form!
px22, i stay at cashew too! short distance to the park. r u nearer to the bpcc? i haven't shortlisted a gynae yet. Dr Adrian seems ok. Not sure if our house area got any gd gynaes? otherwise i dun mind going to TMC. My sis in law has 4 kids and she chose Dr Paul Sng.
pillow4, i haven't told anyone yet. same like u. my DH is soooo eager to let his family know but i stopped him. almost everyday since i was tested positive, he's asking me whether he can announce. haha...

sogo, ur hubby so funny. btw what is DH? paiseh.
wendy, close ones should be ok because they will be the one that can watch out for u.
btw, anyone knows whether we can do some brisk walking and carry some light weight to exercise? need to tone up before i put on the extras. can we swim too? breast stroke?

Wow, this thread is really exciting!
Haha, I've also not told anyone yet.. i'm a private tutor so no colleagues to face heh.. but i used to be a sch teacher and i meet up with my ex colleagues v often.. not sure whether to tell or not cos they're v close friends of mine and they know i've been ttc for five years now..
dear lynzi, all the best! yes, stay away from all forms of smoke if possible.. for me, i'm trying my best to abstain from coffee. So far, no craving yet! but i've had one milk tea.. i read that actually one cup a day is still ok.. not sure...anyone knows?
today i was quite concerned that my doc prescribed me aspirin, which is not what doctors will usually prescribe. but i'm glad i finally got to speak to him later tonite when he called, and he explained it's to thin the blood so that the baby will be able to get the nutrients.. he's giving me this medicine in view of my previous mis... so i guess i will trust him and God to take care of it.
rest well everyone!
