Please bear with my ranting.. =x
We had initially said no to wedding banquets and wanted to do juz a tea ceremony in the morning and a buffet at a chalet in the evening for frenz and relatives coz we wanna keep it simple and also budget constraints.
Yest had dinner wif MIL and family and hubby's bro and sis made a lot of noise abt "very troublesome" and "not nice" to hold in chalet, "suggest" to hold in buffet lunch in hotel. Mind u, FIL had told hubby, "Oh, since u not holding a banquet, no need call my frenz" when hubby ask if he wanna invite his frenz. =_="
Then his cousin and cousin's wife also reprimand us for not discussing wif them and tat we MUZ abide wif wat old folks want. Wat the hell?! Not every one is like them want a grand wedding to show off lorz! =(
Then hubby kenna "brainwashed" by them, wanna do buffet lunch in hotel or restaurant. I am fine wif buffet lunch, but, tat's the MAX I can take. Putting my foot down to no banquet! So damn pissed off!

Amy >> I completely understand, but sometimes is like that. I wanted a small lunch, maybe 50 ppl and mostly friends. My parents said "leave it to you" but in the end made so much noise that it became a 100+ ppl buffet lunch and most of them are relatives I didn't even know or care about! And only about 15 friends from each side. What to do? Our parents bring us up so many years, gotta give and take lor.
Mrs Tan >> Don't feel discouraged... don't be too stressed. Maybe body not recovered yet. Take your time and get a healthy strong BFP!
I went for emergency visit to gynae today - he's kinda clumsy ^^; And not as "zai" as my usual gynae... unfortunately I really hate MtE so I don't want to go to my usual for pregnancy. Anyways. He said can't really see the egg sac clearly cos it's too small, but the lining looks ok. Did a blood test, so the official verdict is "just see how lor". The follow up next week. And he gave me 2 weeks MC and I have to take it easy. Die man, my boss gonna kill me. Haha.

peapea, tethysea, peapea>> Tat's the prob! June is coming and now pull this stunt. My hubby called my dad juz now to tell him the new plans and my dad keep telling him "No need to do it at restaurant". Haiz.. Now let hubby call all he wants first, if can find one within our budget, then ok lorz. If not, they can drop the idea. My parents aren't unhappy, dunno wat his family wants, especially since they are not the ones paying! =( Told them chalet book le, his bro still say "Can cancel one".
tethysea>> Where did u hold yr buffet lunch? Me running out of ideas and places to hold it le.

Amy >> I booked a caterer and had it at National Library 16th floor, The Pod. It's a private function room and I think ppl usually use it for seminars rather than weddings, but the view is awesome and the venue is cheap compared to other places. I also considered getting 2 small seminar rooms + the outdoor garden at 5th floor.

tethysea, do take care and rest well. Don't worry so much abt your boss. After all, you got MC to cover. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Amy, don't be so upset. It is like that with all weddings. Do vent your frustration here if you need to and all of us will lend a listening ear. We have all been there before. Not good to be too stressed when TTC as it might make your cycles even more haywire.

Currently, 15DPO or CD38. Think my gynae and opks/BBT was quite accurate in predicting my O as having slightly brownish discharge today and waiting for AF so that I can start new cycle. Like kwxy says, new cycle new hope! Jia you to everyone!
To all those with PCOS, don't despair. I also have PCOS and am still ovulating naturally and not taking any meds/additional supplements. Just keeping myself in a good mood and taking my prenatal vitamins and folic acid.

Hi girls...
when i see newborns...im still very happy for my friends...at least they pull a healthy 40 weeks pregnancy.
But im uncomfortable to meet up friends are who pregnant...
Example, when i know i BFP in Feb...i was playng Mahjong and knowing one friend also BFP the same week!! both of us started sharing what to eat and which gynae to visit. both of us due OCT 2011...unfortunately my BB heartbeat stopped at week 6-7...and cannot continue the pregnancy journey.
After my mini confinment...when they ask me for mahjong again..i dont feel confortable seeing that friend...coz ppl will sure ask her BB gender and she is definitely showing BB bumps..tummy growing...that makes me v upset to see or hear all these.
so i will try to avoid all these... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

peapea, Amy, Mrs Tan >> Yar, at last count there are 7 pregnant/new mothers on my flist. But then again I have a lot of single friends 
I'm sure some get dui about my wedding pics too. No point envying lar... when it's our turn it will be.
KWXY >> Oh dear... that must be tough. I had a friend ttc 2 months earlier than me, but we were sharing resources and info. Now I haven't worked up the guts to tell her yet, but anyway mine a bit iffy [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
I was reading articles online and suddenly realised that what the doc actually told me this morning means that maybe I have PCOS?! I think that's what he said... cos he said got a small cyst in one ovary, but "nothing to worry about" O_O

morning ladies... short bz week for me.
saw that few of you mentioning raspberry leaves tea. how does raspberry leaves tea help?
Amy - dont feel stress over the wedding prep. old folks are like that.. i guess many of us here have been thru the same. enjoy the process & be a happy bride! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
tethysea - take care and rest well. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
peapea, jan jan, KWXY, Mrs Tan - same here, so many frenz posting their BFP news on fb... can be depressing at times. one of my fren who was also TTCing after a m/c, got preggo early last yr. she didnt dare to break the news to me until 2nd trimester. she was afraid that i'll be upset. after she break the news to me, i felt even more upset. im ok to if she has told me earlier, i can share her joy & probably be more motivated to work hard. imagine, during her 1st few mths, we're still motivating each other every other day, without me knowning that she was already preggo.
anyways, 姐妹们，let's all 加油, 加油, 加油！！！

Ladies,
beginning i tot i going into depression.. After talking to my fren who try TTC for many years, telling her my feelings.. She tell me its normal to feel that.
Sometimes i was blaming myself asking why why why..
My menses is always on time n i ovulate every mth, why nv strike.
Best thing is that my colly kept asking me:" why dun start a family." this irritated me...

Al >> DPO17 still quite early lar. Try with the morning urine like peapea said.
My blood test results came back, doc said consistent with 4 and half weeks. Still spotting but no cramps now, and now I have stringy brown stuff (sorry tmi) that I thought was clots but online resources say is just dried blood. Sigh. I wish I had morning sickness - at least that would signal that hormones are strong.

Ladies, bear feeling so so sad... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] till now, no sign of af.. no sign of bfp. today already late for 7 days le. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] Cannot tahan, i went for a blood test, show negative. Almost burst to tears as how come like this!!! My very first time af so late and yet not bfp!!!! The gynae do a scan for me.. He sees nothing wrong in the lining and observe the wall. I really going crazy lor... then now how? wait for af to report? right now i am damn piss off lor... i keep recalling did i over stress my body or mind till af not regular? no lor, i am stress free person as i dont take my work home. very vexed now.. Now waiting for the gynae to reply my email. Or should i look for other gynae? maybe i should wait for another week? Meaning i am wasting 1 cycle waiting!!! Argh!!!!!
jan jan >> *hugs* don't be depressed... I was reading this article about "The silent miscarriages", where they said 3/4 of fertilised eggs are lost because by some freak chance somehow never implant. And nobody can understand why or how this happens. It's not anybody's fault, it's just plain dumb luck. Just ignore your colleague - some people just kaypoh. I hate it when relatives do that to me too, just be fierce enough and they won't dare to ask you brainless questions!
bear >> I read that it's normal for AF to be late once or twice every few years, even for ppl with regular periods. Since gynae says everything is normal, I guess nothing to do but wait lor. Or can drink the raspberry leaf tea like someone else suggested to encourage the AF to report?
hi tethysea
Don't worry too much. Make sure u hv plenty rest & don't walk too much. Since u hv 2 wks ML, just do bed rest as much as possible. Bedrest = flat on bed, sitting on bed is nt bed rest (according to my mum) 4.5wks is a bit early for morning sickness, so long as blood count & everything is according to your no of wks it shld be fine. happy for u =)
hi janjan, at least ur AF on time, O can be estimated much easier. Mine is so hay-wired, my nipples only start to feel sore today (1mth fr AF!) imagine i hv been trying to max BD for 2wks liao and now it seems that this wk shld be the right wk. HB ask, the window period still OPEN?? LOL
hi Mrs Tan, D&C in Dec too, we can only continue to try again & again and be positive. I actually went Wong Tai Seng and ask for a lot in 2010. It said i would be in 2nd half of the yr, which was true but it's nt a happy ending. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] so i tell myself it will come, at least we did conceive successfully once liao. Let's jia you together!
hi KWXY, my office gals are so fertile & productive.. I easily will meet 1 preggie lady in each toilet trip + the nursing room is packed (according to my col). I sometimes also ask, y nt me yet? then i tell myself, no stess, will be my turn soon. let's keep trying. This wk short wk, plenty of time over wkend for BD

tethysea>> if late by 1 or 2 or 3 days, i still can take it. It has been missing in action for 7 days le... I have been on and off cramp during my 1ww till now. Gynae also said is either the symptom of pregnant or menses is coming..faintz!! i also can be doc lor. No need for him to said.
My hubby still told me he still feels that i am pregnant. he said six sense.sigh...even my dog also very loving for the past few days. lie down on my lap which he never de lor. That dog only know me when he sees food.sigh....

Anyway, i dont care le lar... i just wait and see. If next week still no sign of af, i am going to visit him again. He did not give me any medicine last evening. As he wants me to wait for another week.
