Sing Yee, the set I have is similar to Babyplus, but you can hook it up to your own CD player. So you don't have to listen to the same 'boring' music if you don't wish to 
WhatI did was to rotate different types of classical music. When I'm in the car, we normally play the Disney songs (those from cartoons).
My dad is classical music 'siao', so he has loads of CDs and he will have a 'pick of the week' for his grandson. And he used to make me listen to Sound of Music when I was preggie too (and my boy loves the DVD and can sing all the songs with high accuracy on lyrics - complete with actions!).
Positive thing I saw from my boy: Easy to soothe to sleep with soft humming or soft music in background. & can sleep through loud noises (ok is this cos of my job when I was preggie. haha. all the crazy students shouting everyday.)

Wah all talking abt food here... Makes me hungry .
In my first few mths: I just avoided all seafood n slowly catchin up on meat cos somehow bb doesn't like all these..
Hb still restricts seafood for me till today. Anyway I usually refrain from seafood on normal days.
For steamboat buffet: can try hotpot at m hotel. Soup base very nice..has tomyum, laksa,chicken n fish .. Hygiene n service all very gd.
Chong Qing s standard def dropped. Def not going back agn.

Anyway also be careful abt stalls u buy food from.. ESP now that we r preg. We r usually very particular abt hygiene.. Be it spore or overseas .
Loveberries: u don't have to really eat sugary stuff. Just by eating normal food is enough to raise sugar level. Drinking fruit juice is one of the fastest ways. Just eat like every 2hrs or so. But keep some sweets in your bag for emergency.

amnio tests the amniotic fluid for down syndrome and other genetic defects. Detailed scan is to basic look at the whole of baby and his developments and measurements to make sure everything is in order.so i think you will be doing detailed scan too. I enjoy the extra long period studying and having a close look at cute little baby in my tummy so intimately

Hunnymummy: these are jap restaurants wor. Sure sashimi not from japan? Aiyoh the way u describe oysters makes my saliva drippin non stop. Haha.
P00h: good luck in ur retest. Hope everything goes smoothly.
Jojo: why did u opt for amnio? It's typically something not really by choice. But if u gg for it then detailed scanning or Oscar is not really needed. At least that's what my Gynae said. Note that amnio also has some risk in miscarriage unlike other tests.

Jojo: actually I'm gg for amnio too under Gynae suggestion. Main reason cos I was under high risk cat for my #1 although then I wasn't even 35. So this time round Gynae said dun waste $$ and just go for amnio. when urs scheduled?
It can be a long process depending on bb position. Previously it took more tjan half a day and got to keep drinking water and walk around for bb to be in the right position.

Jojo: mine scheduled on 19th April @ TMC. Yours? It can be as fast as 30 mins provided bb be good and be in the right position. They actually poke the needles away from the baby so as not to hurt it. For my 1st one, my gal was so curious, towards the end when doc was pulling out the needle, she stretched out her hands towards it.. even the nurse made a slight worrying sound but before she can reached, the needle was out. It was quite an experience. *phew*
Mareike: Thanks. Not sure though cos the last time I was only give the day MC. I guess as long as needle didnt touch the bb, should be fine ba. I just started in new role in my company so not so good to take long MC. Will pray very very hard that everything goes smoothly.
Adeline: hope both you and bb are doing well.
Pommes: Thanks Pommes. For leg cramp at night, try to wear socks when sleeping - it helps. For massaging - i would suggest pure olive oil too cos thats what my prenatal massage lady suggested too.
El-Nino: what spree are you thinking of doing?

Koume: Woman of courage! =)) Way to go in making sacrifices for baby! Sure your little one will appreciate you lots for it. =) Take even better care of yourself then!
Mareike and Hunnymummy: I’m also a good friend of piles. Sigh…it started long time ago when I had bad constipation over a few years and then it developed. So now in pregnancy, it visits whenever I forget my trusty fibre drink. Hunnymummy, if you get it so often, then maybe consider to get one? It can get much worse after we deliver coz we won’t dare to push for fear of tearing the wound! Mine is very good…from Metamucil. =)) As for iron pills, I know that mine has an ingredient that prevents constipation. Touch wood, but so far since I started being on iron, bowel movements have been perfectly good…thank God!
Bunnz: My gynae gave me iron in end of 1st trimester after the results of the blood test for haem levels are out. Mine was only slightly low but she (as always kiasu) decided to give me still for safety reasons…so I guess not everyone may need it, depending on their haem levels…
Loveberries: How about trying complex instead of refined carbs as a good source of slow-release sugar? Your doc should be referring to that…i.e. things like brown rice and wholewheat bread etc!
Adelene: Please take good care…I’m sure you’ll be fine yea? Try not to worry too much too! =)

choco15 : is it? i need to go look at face book again.. hehe
Pommes : i ship mine from US.
If any gals really int, let me know.
can google youngliving essential oils
prices are ard US20 (excl shipping) range for the more popular and common ones for common minor aliments like flu/fever/sore throat/indigestion/headache etc
one oil is enough for the above ailments ..peppermint (safe enough to consume,240 drops per bottle)
i dont trust those body shops or any ones via the push carts..the oils have to be top grade theruputic oils. also any aromatherapy oil which needs to be burnt over candle light is not pure. cos the heat wld have further damaged the oils.
