piggB, I sure hv that. Most of the times after food, I mouth will sort of turn sourish and seems like its coming from the throat (occasionally its bitterish). Thats why I now hv to keep brushing my teeth after eating, evening munching something! Becos of this I hv no desire to take any sourish stuff like sng buay, etc, Yaks!

Morning all mommies! Have not logged in here for a long time... But have scanned and noticed that nearly all (??) mothers have seen at least a moving bb (mostly active bbs right?) and most of us have bbs with low risks? Yay, and congrats!
CT: so good, you know your detailed scan date already? How many weeks pregnant will you be then?
I'm guessing I will prob hv my detailed scan in mid Aug in my 20th week?
PiggyB: I don't hv the problem of sourish taste in mouth but wonder if minty chewing gum will help?

Hello mommies - was out of town for a few days and have not logged in - read up the thread and happy to hear many have good scan results.
It's my 12th week and still having MS, excessive saliva and bloatedness - really hope it's going off soon.
Will be having my scan and blood test on 23rd July very excited to see bb again and anxious again about the test which will tell if I need amniocentesis or not - really really hope not too
rgdarding TCM: I used to see TCM and my TCM Dr. advise against taking any TCM during praggy, he say he will see me only after birth. My gynae also say not to take TCM.
Anyway I think if in doubt better do check.

Hi ladies,
I've been reading the thread, but not joining cos I wanted to wait till my pregnancy was more stable. I'm coming to 12 weeks this week and will be doing my Oscar next week.
I'm feeling v nervous about whether the baby is alright esp after reading so many whose pregnancies stopped in the 1st trim.
May I know what is the frequency that you all visit your gynae? I'm also looking for a new gynae who will deliver at Mount A, cos my current gynae is quite ex, and doesn't have a maternity package, and doesn't deliver in Mount A. Anyone have any recommendations?

Welcome Blueydoo,
I had my boy deliver at Mt. A 4 years ago with Dr Koh Cheng Huat in 2007. His package was $500 from 16 weeks onwards till you give birth. The hospital bill was about $3000 at that time. My was a natural with epi, 4 bedded for 2 days. My boy was big, as he weights 3.77 kg and 53cm. U can call the clinic and check his package 6254 4022.
I'm seeing another Dr Tho at jurong east this time & his package with $700 after 16 weeks too. He also delivers at Mt.A too.

Hi mommies, had buffet lunch at Amara Hotel earlier & am so stuffed now! Urgh.
Babybee - yes, this pregnancy seems faster doesn't it. Its already the 2nd trimester (week 13!) My belly is now beginning to show abit & at least I look more preggy now
Don't worry about not having symptoms of any kind - I have none too - & baby is developing well! At least the belly starts showing this trimester & the pregnancy becomes more real
Blueydoo - welcome to the forum! By 12 weeks, your pregnancy should be v stable already, so that is good news. Read that 90+% of miscarriages, if they happen, would occur before this. On frequency of gyne visits, its about once/month now. My next one is at week 16, then at week 20 for detailed scan. It gets more frequent (fortnightly, then weekly) as we approach the EDD.

hi mummies
Back from Oscar scan in noon and had a good sleep. Ate the flu med from gynae and finally runny stop but become block nose. kekeke...
Hope to receive good oscar result soon. Today, the sonographer scanned and the back fluid is like 1.46mm. Gynae commented that it is good. Hope really good . Baby very very active during the scan. Keep on flipping and kicking but rather cooperative at times for measurement. haha.. Asked to see gender but sonographer said too early already. Baby now is 6.68cm.
BTW, today paid $408 for oscar and week 20 NT detailed scan. After SBI discount.
EDD also change to 17 Jan.
My detailed scan scheduled on 1st Sep.
Oh yes, finally gynae said baby stabilized. I no need to eat duphaston already.. yeah!!!
Jamie, thanks. I will avoid zrytec. Just take the med prescribe by gynae

Hi JTML
The TMC sonographer said after 2.5mm, its consider high, but also have to depend on baby size. My gynae measured the baby NT thickness for me again in his clinic and told me, its good. I asked " eh, then why do i have to do Oscars since u said its good. It so ex.". He said blood test confirm more. FAINTZ.. haha!! Now's lets wait for the blood test result.
zhuzhu, yup. The nurse said its a package that my gynae opt for both to be paid. Its cheaper this way, i think.
I thought i felt 1 kick from baby too a few days ago.. hee hee..
Hi wawonie, welcome
Err. i m always feeling nauseas always especially at nite for me..

Hi
I have also been a silent reader.. in my 11th wk of my second bb now with EDD 31 Jan 2012.. yes, I have crazy stomach and sour tongue like wawonie, piggyB, valteen... it's unbearable sometimes esp after eating 2 mouths the sourish thingy happens!! everything taste bad... i tried gargling with 1/4 to 1/2 tsp baking soda in water.. it helps for awhile.. did b4, in-between and af meals!!! any other ways to help? for stomach I take gaviscon af meals.. it helps neutralise some acid and reduce the sour tongue! Hope such hurdles will be soon over for us!

jowin baby - how many weeks are you? Baby is quite big at 6.68cm
Mine was only 5.7cm, but the sonographer & gyne both didn't give me a new EDD (don't think gyne bothered cos EDD keeps changing anyways).
Btw $408 for OSCAR and week 20 scan sounds reasonable. They didn't even offer that package to me; paid $288+ for OSCAR after the SBI discount. Meanwhile, have to wait for the next appnt at week 16 to get back the full OSCAR result slips from my gyne.
hkbaby - welcome to the forum. Hope your sourish taste in the mouth goes away soon.

Has anybody felt so bloated, you feel like burping but no burp is coming out? How did you manage it? I've been feeling this way since yesterday morning and it wouldn't go away no matter how much water i drink.
At 3am this morning i woke up to a very painful stomach due to bloatedness. I had to ask DH to gently rub my tummy to help me release the air.

hi hi... Jowin: Hope your runny nose is better already. Rest more ok! Rest is the best remedy for flu.
Just came back from gynea's visit. now at 14.5weeks, baby 8.4cm. I thought it was big. Last week's OSCAR was 7.5cm.
Wah... Felt so good after visiting my gynea. Almost wanted to hug him for being so reassuring & understanding all these years. Never met such an encouraging doctor. So happy now... can't describe... even though i am still feeling unwell. hahah...

Hi mayC
I am at Week 13 now. Haha, maybe baby is a fat one. My #1 gal did not born small too. She born at 3.54kg, consider huge for girl lor. Wish she is slimmer.
Yup. They had it all lump up. Gynae choose the package and circled the option on the form. So its $408.
They did not inform me on EDD, i saw it on the scan itself. Hee Hee.
Tulip7V, thanks! I m much better. No more runny but become block nose.
i haven announced anything on FB leh. So i add all of you next time when i announced ok? Would glad to have u all in

PiggyB - don't know a Samuel Soh, he is just mutual friends with you & another mommy. Not on my FB friend list
jowin - baby is most prob bigger cos you are further along? A few days makes alot of difference! I missed seeing my EDD on the gyne screen during the U/S, & its not listed in the OSCAR scan printout, but its CRL seems about right based on online websites.
