Hello ladies,
Can i join you here? I'm currently in my 11 weeks. EDD should be 19 Sep. I'm kinda hoping BB will be born on 15 Sep cos that is my birthday and the same lunar birthday as my elder boy. This is BB#2. My boy is 16 months now, same as pinkiemie's gal.

My bro just came back from London & he bought tonnes of baby clothes. He bought like 50 sets of infant clothings??? Thankfully, mostly are unisex (except for 5 sets - boy sets).
My irritating bro keep saying that he's sure it's gonna be a boy again, so he bought some boy sets! ARGH!!! I WANT GIRL!!!!

ooh bunnz... my baby is 4.4 cm at exactly at the 11 weeks last night. Seems like the machine makes the call on the EDD. But the measurements are so so subjective... very blurry image.
My first gynae has a much better scanning machine than KKH. I remembered the last time, around this time, i could see bb's arms flinging and bouncing away. But now, hardly can see anything except for the heart beating away.
Food cravings: I'm craving for all the forbidden fruits now... lol pineapples, sashimi, cockles, and cold cold drinks... hmm do i see a defiant baby in the making?

virgoMTB,

Still need to work late today.

#2,
yah... i click on notify when available button. But means no more 6% disc as the disc ends today. Have bought the MTB travel kit so there's a small bottle of the stretch mark oil as well. Think can last for a while since i still have some clarin's stretch mark oil left.

Morning Ladies! This thread has moved so fast!
First of all, heartfelt thanks to many of you here for being so encouraging towards my -ve thoughts and fibroid discovery. Talked to hb and close gfs and I'm feeling better already. Someone told me that nobody will ever be ready, as in I may feel that I'm not ready for an infant, but someone with an infant may feel inadequate for a toddler, and someone with a school-going kid may still feel stressed facing a teenager...so I guess we will need to come to terms with this soon and take on the parenthood journey in our stride. And my gf reminded me that I am already very blessed in the sense that if I really cannot cope or need a break, my parents have already excitedly volunteered to help at the sideline [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Regarding the OSCARS test results, I managed to review it with gynae over the weekend. Blood test results came back and everything about the baby is good -- neck, nasal bone, amino fluid, risk against 3 types of trisomy. Gynae isnt too concerned with my fibroids though. I spoke to my chinese sinseh after that but she was very concerned instead. She feels that I might have overdosed on hormones during the past 6 weeks in a bid to stabilise the pregnancy -- weekly jabs + daily utrogestran. I was also starting to feel nausea and lost my appetite in the last 1 week or so, all these could be side effects of surging hormones. She advised that I stop the hormonal medication immediately after 12 weeks. Before 12 weeks, our bodies require that to stabilise the pregnancy, after 12 weeks, the placenta should take over the job. So I took 1 last jab from gynae at week 12 and now I'm only taking the multi-vits and calcium tablets from him.
As for herbal stuff, sinseh advised that I only stick to the more neutral ones now, eg 四神/六味. Nothing too cooling, nothing too heaty. To my disappointment, she doesnt think that I need chicken essence or birdnest too! Hb was all ready to buy BN. Sigh! I still havent piled back the 3kg lost, she isnt too worried cos I'm not thin to begin with. But she warned that I need to eat no matter what. Even if I feel nausea or have no appetite, pregnant ladies must take small meals. She said it wont be good if the growing fetus tap on my stored fats =X
Hope the above info is also useful to some of you [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Go shop for toiletries at T3. I go there quite often becos they don't charge GST. I think the current promotion is - GST x 2. This means you save about 7x 2 = 14%.
I always save quite a bit when I shop there. The promo applies to candy empire and the other shops too.

Asura, he bought mostly 0 - 3 months and 3 - 6 months!!!
And he said tt time my boy keep changing clothes during the first few months so he buy more for baby lor -_-"
My bro is still single la, so his concept of having a baby is weird! hahaha!
And when I had my boy, my bro was a poor student living in Aussie. Now he got spending power and travel frequently for work, I think he finds joy in shopping for baby items!

Bunnz: Haha I really don’t know…my hubby v funny, keep saying coz I never eat enough (though he knows there is not really a link…). I think your bb’s length still sounds okay, coz my friend’s at 11w1d is 43.1mm. Yes I wanted to do yoga for the longest time but always procrastinating! =p
Gina Christine: you also like egg mayo? Hahah is mayo okay to take since it may contain raw egg whites? I've been taking alot of tuna mayo sandwich from Subway too! That day accidentally ate brie cheese in a sandwich...sandwiches seems to be the easiest thing to eat!

#2: Your brother is so sweet and thoughtful. Your kids are so lucky to have a doting uncle.
Just had sweet and sour pork rice for lunch. Nowadays, i just like the sweet sweet SOUR SOUR stuff. Though my gynae has already sternly warned me against taking sweet stuff.

Breast milk storage bags (Avent)
Breast milk storage bottles (Avent)
These are not available in SG already.
Must buy online.
Prefer PLAYTEX milk bags. Cheaper and stronger than Avent.
