<font color="aa00aa">Hi mommies, am now at the hotel lounge clearing my emails before I head to the airport! Travelling is such a waste of time.
Chiffoncake - I also heard the opposite, pimples = girl, nice complexion = boy. For my case, I really can't tell, cos for #1 (boy), I think my complexion & hair was exactly the same pre/during/post pregnancy! Now its also exactly the same, so can't gauge if its a boy/girl, though I am still secretly wishing baby is a boy
On Vit A, my gyne took one look at my GNC pre-natal vits & told me to 1/2 the dosage cos of Vit A content (think it was 10,000 IU). But I checked & mine is 100% in beta carotene form, which is 100% safe for babies, so I am still taking the recommended dosage. Vit A in beta-carotene from is totally OK for babies according to online literature. My gyne is ultra kiasu, she also told me not to color my hair throughout the pregnancy (I did from 2nd trimester onwards for #2).
Lush - I am sure your baby is fine
Wait for the good results from your gyne!
On hubbies being too concerned, I think its natural for #1s! My hubby is still abit like that, like reminding me that I cannot jump, or carry #1 for too long, but I am the one that is more bochap. I don't feel pregnant at all, so sometimes I do forget that I am, & do stuff I by right shouldn't!
Meanwhile, I met some friends for dinner here in KL last nite - one is preggy (5+ months) & she has gained only 1.5kg! Wow, that is like the same amount as me!
Lebebe - oh, your EDD is the 24th? Mine has actually been pushed to 20th at the 1st visit cos gyne said baby is bigger than based on my LMP
Plus I am going for C-sec, so would most prob be on the 2nd week of Jan. Can pick a nice date, maybe 10/01/2012 or 12/01/2012</font>
