dym, i took my blood tests during my 18weeks. my next appt is on 4/11.

nw busy finding hourly maid / cleaner. my clothes which needs to be iron are now full 1 basket. haha.
 


morning mummies,

twins, dont worry God will bring the 2 darlings to full term, relaz dun stress yourself.

zelda & Dym, i everyday brush teeth will hav this problem. even when i step into the toilet to pee also will feel pukey.
 
Good morning mummies 
Just woke up n realized the sky so dark no wonder I can slp til now. Having bad dream n cried in the dream.. So tired Nw.
Mich22: u ok? Ms today so jialat ah? Got ginger tea or peppermint tea?

So far I'm in my 15wks havent done anything blood test, suppose to do in on my 14wks but went gynae foe earlier appt due to cramp on 13wks so gynea said nxt wk when do amino will do blood test together .
 
Dym,
yup, took the test last time. It's valid for lifetime, right? I don't want to take it again leh ... :p But it's actually quite easy, can refer to the printouts, just very leychey.

Till now I still havn't take my blood test! My gynae kept saying that's not important, can always do it later. I'm happy too, haha!
 
Morning mummies! Last sat and yest night i got the same feeling that's like tapping within my tummy. Dunno if its my bb kicking/moving? No idea how first time should feel like. Heehee...
 
Twins,
I get all kind of suggestions/ideas last time too! No this, no that, do this, do that. I just listen and filter whatever I don't want to listen. :p

Even now that as a 2nd-time MTB, I still get "suggestions" from those friends with 3/4 kids. I see it as concern and topics for them to talk to me about. Don't have to really listen to everything. It's your body, your bbs, you know best.

BB - i saw from sp.edu.sg that if employing for 5th FDW, u need to attend class EOP and no online EOP lo. LOL.. dun worry u r safe.
 
GG: how's Ur amino test? How many days u waited? I'm doing nxt tue. Aft the test I tot of resting til Sunday Shld b enough right ? If not keep staying Hm will think too much.
 
Amino test take two weeks to know the result right ? i am considering now because i rather have a peace of mind ... but i wait for hb to read up more info first ....
 
Dym,
ya, think if you change 5 FDW within a year, you'll have to go for class and "counselling". hehe.
 
why 5 and above in a year need to go "counselling" ...becuz cant be 5 of them all cannot fit requirments, and must be the employer's problem? haha
 
BB - i wont be so sway de.. LOL..*fingers crossed*

starr - always in favour the FT/FDW.. thats y u see many FTs in sg..
 
dym, ya man, every retail shop u go to nowadays, sure have at least 1 foreign person working there..

think i saw an article recently that this person wrote abt him taking the train...there are so many foreign workers in the train with him that for a while, he felt like he was in India..
 
Dym,
I don't mean you lah, I mean general employers. haha!

Starr_nn,
haha!! You will feel the same too if you take buses that past by Upper Serangoon Road on Sundays. :p
 
starr - im surrounded by FTs around my area. soon there will be 1 living with me. guess its time to pick up another language!
 
<font color="000080">Mrs Carice >> Paiseh didn't log in at home just saw your qn. My OSCAR results is 1:196... much worse than yours :p I guess depends lor... cos actually by the time you wait for the amnio results it's almost time for the 20-week scan le. I think from the scan they can also tell if there's a problem *choy choy choy*. So can opt to save money and just wait till the detailed scan.</font>
 
Tethysea, i will be going for detail scan end of the month. will detail scan able to see anything? your oscar lower how come still need to do the test ?
 
Carice,
detailed scan is supposed to be scanning for any problem like skull, spine, heart, kidney &amp; etc ... including DS.
I also agree with tethysea since the amnio results will probably come around the time you do your detailed scan then why not wait for detailed scan?
 
I m going for my blood test on this Sat. Think it's to test for aids etc etc. More on e mummy side.

I guess as long as u re pregnant sure got alot of advice good or bad. Like wat some of e mummies here say, must filter n be +ve &amp; stay happy!!

Hehe, that reminds me I must ask my baby to open legs big big so tt I can buy e new clothes &amp; wrapping cloth!!! I m thinking of getting my mum to sew a wrapping cloth for e baby!

Last weekend, I was so upset by my inlaws tt I told my hubby tt when I gave birth, I appreciate that they dun come up to my hse unannounced! And I appreciate they keep their mouth shut on my confinement diet!
 
Michelle2202: I hope you feel better soon! Rest well yah!

I also realized that whenever I brush my teeth, will have the tendency to puke. Morning puke yellow liquid which I wonder if that's gastric juice coz stomach is empty. And at night vomit dinner/supper! (>.<) So now I always try to brush v fast before I throw up.

Btw, any mommies out there go toilet v often? Especially during bed time? I tot it happened only the 1st tri but even during my 2nd tri, I still go toilet as often as 4-5 times from the time 12-6am!

Michelle22: I didn't see you post anything... u still sick? Once I start to puke, I will feel sick the whole day de! Tonight still date my hubby go pak tor without princess... hope I'll feel better after sleeping.
 
Hi all,
1. Confinement lady, I m paying $2.2k. I consider myself lucky because she is a local.
2. Blood test, I did it for 1st trim check @ week 12 and results was 3 weeks later when I went to see the gynae again.
3. Infant care, did consider, but a bit rush because need to knock off on time to pick up kid. And also too many babies.
4. Vomiting, I am still vomiting too, but I am on tablets every day prescribed by gastro doc. Metoclopramide. Initially did not want to eat cos dont want too many medication, but scared baby not getting nutrients, so no choice.
5. Lunch time topic today was asking my colleagues what brand of cot, car seat and stroller they buy. Have any of you started buying already?
 
michelle22: you better take gd care of yourself.

So far i think my ms has stable le... i often feel hungry... any mummies encounter this? How i wish i can zzzz at home with such a nice weather...
 
Hi Michelle, I am looking for cot, car seat and stroller too. I think Combi brand is a value for money brand.

Michele
 
Michelle 2202, you can try taking Meiji biscuits or dry biscuits. I helps with the vomiting, you might be allegy to milk - could that be the cause of your sudden MS?? If your gynea is not around, you can go to A&amp;E or try my gynea, Dr. L N Sim at level 4 at TMC, she is avaliable today in the afternoon session

Hope my info helps!
 
Michelle Goh: Am actually very excited and looking forward to buying bb stuff. But am not very sure whats the gd brand out there n what to take note of.

So looking forward to the Parentfair at Expo in Nov!!! Hehe!

Dym: Wow...that's so good for you. My sleep was disturb by frequent unrination. But do you drink plenty of water? I get extra thirsty after toilet. Haha! I heard sometimes is due to baby pressing on the bladder.

Btw, where can I get the excel sheet ah?
 
michw, have a chat with ur colleagues. apparently combi is light weight, good for public transport, but not as stable and not shopping friendly. My colleagues recommend me maclaren. that is for stroller. car seat, they dont seemed to pay much attention it. no consensus brand. cot, some dont even buy...
suetyeo, here it is https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AldImEaT5U1RdFlhYk1jWHlsZmwwUlVHVXprVzNLTVE&amp;hl=en_US#gid=0
not sure if i want to go baby fair though, crowded and the people will not pay as much attention when u try to ask more and now dont really like crowds, but will check out baby hypermart and baby kingdom.
 
Hi Elletwins, how do i input and send back into this forum, I try to save in my desktop and resend but the file seems too big
sad.gif
hope you can help me update my details into the list
happy.gif


thanks, Michele
 
Went to take a look at the list, realise my name appear twice.... once at Mich and another as Michele Wong, sorry I am very blur sotong, if I confused anyone, I apologise
sad.gif


I don't know how my name was added as I can't post the attachement into this forum ...hehehe

Michele
 
Carice,
maybe you can check with your gynae and see what's his/her advice?

Michele,
you mean the google spreadsheet? You just have to input your details and there's a "save" button on top right corner. Click that and will auto save in the spreadsheet.
 
suetyeo - good? i think its becos im too lazy to wake up. i do wake up everyday at ard 4+5am but not for toilet break. toss n turn den when i finally fall aslp, its time to wake up for work. haha..! when i had #1, i oso didnt wake up freq for breaks.. i dun drink too much water b4 slp and i always empty my bladder b4 sleep..
 
Hi BB, yeah i think i did that and I didn't know I 'save' my update .... YEAH! I'm so boed at home as I am order to bedrest for this week and can't go out at all! All I can do it watch TV and chat with all of you.

Michelle2202 - I hope all's well with your vomiting, you poor gal!

Michele
 
Betsy : ic ...

BB : Dr let me have the choice lor ... i ask for recommendation but he did not answer me by saying it up to me ... for those who kasu one will go do the test ...

Michelle wong : i have add you in fb
 
carice, i ks thats y i did the blood test tgr with the screening. It's more accurate with the blood test.
 


michw, i won't really consider combi a value for money brand...it's not really that cheap...n too light. U can't hang anything on the stroller. It will topple easily.
