Gilera,
You probably need to ask ur gynae if he can give you mc when you go for your appt.
Cos my ex-company also stated clearly the difference between medical appt and medical leaves.

vivianne > Last time when I pregnant with #2, I continued to BF #1. It will come to a point where there will be totally no milk at all. It will stop naturally for my case. But my gal still suck for comfort that time. So it was quite tiring for me.
amici_grapes > there are times I purposely forget to take... LOL. But the nauseous and giddiness is making me very tired and frustrated. Don't know why this pregnancy make me very negative. Sometimes I have funny tots like if I were to have cancer and going thro chemo, I think I will die... I mean like I cannot stand this stupid MS liao... what's more for those cancer patients right? Haha... i think i'm talking nonsense.

Hey since there are mothers here, pls advise if the chinese gender predictor calendars are accurate.
Must use chinese age and month or wat… v confusing…
I am 29 (ang-mo age, birthday not yet pass) when conceived in Jan (ang-mo month) = GIRL ???

My aunt told me its quite zun to ask your child the gender of your unborn baby. My aunt has 4 kids and every pregnancy her kids will say want mei mei, in the end all 4 kids are girls. My mum asked me if I want mei mei or didi, I want mei mei and got a sister. Think kids 6 sense are "zun"
I asked my boy he want Mei Mei, I was so happy. Hope can strike girl, hehe

Even = girl, odd = boy. Just pinch a small amt of rice and count lor. Don't grab too many, otherwise count till next year.
Creamdonut,

Amici,

gilera,
so sorry to hear abt ur sil's loss. how old is she cos i'm also considered in e high risk group lor. i'm 35 liao [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
for my #1, cos too excited + unexpected so announced early to family members & frens (via FB). din think too much abt being pantang etc. later on, got some mtbs suffered miscarriages like bb not growing or no more hb fr the 8-12wks, then i realised how fragile the 1st trimester is.
now, i hv only told my mom & intend to announce after 12wks.
re. e chinese gender predictor, we tried that during the mtb thread i belonged to last time, think not too accurate lah. as with any prediction, best to take with a pinch of salt.

Re: snoring my hb snores so loud that i've to bring #1 out to sleep in separate rooms. Pinching his nose, pushing him over doesn't work at all It worked well, except i can still hear him snore! was concerned abt the intimacy part at 1st but we've reached an understanding. thank God for that.
rabbit_bb, there are some herbs not suitable for bf, i dunno which ones. i've not called up Newbaby yet so maybe they have confinement food for bfeeding mummies.
hi gilera, welcome and congrats! your bb is bigger than mine at 7w0d 9.4mm 133bpm. we've no pets at home but i've a friend who's a 14mo boy and a dog. they get along well together.
starry, yes i can squat down and sit on a stool after that. during my 6 week postpartum, gynae said i can start trying for #2! but i developed keloids (over-healing) due to laziness in applying the scar healing cream
Re: IL issues hah~ my not good experiences were plenty plenty! but i've learned to give and take + close 1 eye liao.
vivi, me bfg too. re colostrum our body will start producing it at 3rd tri and will stop about 5-7 days after delivery. Next will come pre-milk and full breast milk. so newborn can still get the colostrum.
pixiemama, yes this is thread for EDD Oct 2011.

It is accurate for me and ALL of my friends and sis that I have checked for, around 11 of them. including Starry will be 11/14 accuracy which is 79% accurate. There were another 2 people I know of who say it did not work. I think 79% percent accuracy in my circle of friends is a pretty high hit rate.

My sis bought it from Harris I think. The author is Sam Lloyd, my girl thinks its really fun. You can find it on Amazon too but after shipping and postage, it workd out to be the same price as buying here. http://www.amazon.com/Whats-Your-Tummy-Mummy-Lloyd/dp/1843650916
I also ordered 'I'm a Big Sister' by Joanna Cole, recommended by one of the moms here, sorry can't remember who! Should be receiving it next week. Will let you know if my kid likes it.
Tummy rubbing
You know when I was pregnant with #1 I had so many people coming up to me trying to touch me. It's really quite unnerving... having people trying to rub my tummy for 'luck'. but they're always so happy for me I found it so hard to tell them to please don't touch me! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Re duphaston
I was on it last time, I didn't feel any side effects. Think its different for everyone.
Let down
hehehehe.... YES I had let down during sex, but my hb found it amusing so I wasn't embarassed [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]I had loads of milk man... can pump out almost 300ml in 1 sitting......... hope it'll be the same this time around

Tamms, I found it hard to enjoy the act with milk spraying everywhere though hubby was amused and tried to 'catch' the milk -_-"
There was once I pumped while watching TV and did not pay attention, the bottle overflowed!!! I used two 330ml Avent bottles. Both overflowed. -_-" & my sister was laughing like mad. I rmb just before I stopped BF, I was pumping around 300ml/boobie per session. Pumped around 3-4 times a day. And when I come home from work, my mum will shout to my boy,"BABY! YOUR COW IS HOME!!!"

gilera, thanks! yes #2. no don't worry about the bb size for now. for 1st tri gynae said we can afford to eat more. controlling diet may start from 3rd tri onwards.
vivi, babycenter said breast milk will change to colostrum likely during 3rd trimester. most elder kids self-wean at this point due to change of taste.
my #1 has already started self-weaning as my milk doesn't taste sweet anymore [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] now i've a big headache how to get him to drink milk. just now his CC teacher called and said he's not getting enough calcium as he can't stand up on his own w/o support. but he walks & runs well w/o support.

Yan, I drank a lot of soups to make the milk flow [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] A lot of hard work into pumping regularly to bluff my boobs into thinking I need more milk for the baby!!
The fenugreek fish soup helped the most to make the milk flow [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] everytime I drink it, can see marked increase in the amt of milk
Imagine my A cup boobies can become D cup boobies when full!

my hubby snores, tosses and turns while sleeping with limbs flying and whacking, jabbing me as well. once he fell off bed with a loud thud, i waited for him to climb back up but he didnt (and was wondering should i just leave him there.) anyway, i laughed my head off while trying to pull him up.
now that i am preggie, we have to build protective bolsters and pillows to keep me secure before we turn in. ia m a light sleeper so everytime he shifts, i faster put pillow on tummy and turn away from him...
LOL...see my motherly instinct....

Then when I tell my hubs I want D cup again, he told me,"Then we make another baby lah! Since you don't like menses and want big boobs, get preggie again you'll get both wishes!" -_-"

Angel, my nephew was only 1yo when he predicted his next sibling is a boy. They write boy on 5 pieces of paper and girl on 5 pieces of paper, then fold the same way and shake to mess up, then ask him to pick. He picked BOY, & he got a didi. The #3, he could speak already and he proudly declared sure to be meimei. hahaha! And he was accurate!
