Previous was a randomly assigned gynae at KKH... Felt that he was rushing through the consultation and waiting time for the whole appt very long (4+ hrs!) and have to run to a few clinics to scan, take urine test, weigh and see doc... so decided to go private...

Morning all mummies! New to this forum. Expecting my little baby in end March!
Was reading the previous treads and feeling so glad that i am not alone in this tiring, sleepy, burpy and farty 1st trimester... hahaha! Can I join you girls in this long 9 mths journey?! :p
 
Thanks!!!
sigh, i wonder how many of you are like me man... trying hard to keep myself awake during work when my eyes are feeling so heavy and the whole body so tired plus feeling pukey. Plus have to act like i am not pregnant cos i haven't told anyone in office yet.

hoping to tell my boss after my down syndrome scan in 2 weeks time. really hope that will come soon so that i can really act and look pregnant. boo! and hopefully by then, the MS will be gone! yeah!!!
when did you girls tell your bosses abt your pregnancy ah?
 
Hi mummies!

Congrats drypantz!

I told my boss once I knew i was pregnant as I was suffering from severe morning sickness and couldnt go to work due to motion sickness and he allowed me to work from home for a while.
 
morning ladies

welcome drypantz, my direct manager were informed like when i'm in 6 weeks as i feel very unwell and keep getting mcs. my big boss only noes at 8 weeks cos he keep asking me to drink wine during company event so i no choice tell him. so now i can behaved like preggy and rest whenever i really cannot tahan the tireness. But most impt bosses must be understanding cos for me my managers are single so they will not understand the discomfort we going thru.

Btw, we have a spreadsheet for all MTB to input information (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AldImEaT5U1RdFlhYk1jWHlsZmwwUlVHVXprVzNLTVE&hl=en_US#gid=0)
We also have a secret FB group pm Mrs Carice to add you.
 
snoppy: ur boss is considered good le.. my managers keep wanting me to OT OT OT even thou they noe i not well need more rest as when i was on mc to rest at home my work got piled up.... feeling very frustrated about it.
 
wenwen: yup, he treats me quite well by empathising with me when i felt rather sick until he learnt from HR what he did is not allowed, then he got no choice and asked me to take mc whenever I'm not feeling well enough to come to work
 
Drypantz,
I just informed my boss 2 weeks ago. Didn't really make any difference, just informed him for the sake of informing, hehe.

I'm feeling sleepy at work too and worse part is I'm losing sleep at night. Will feel v tired and go zzz at 10 but wake up at 2-3am and can't get back to zzz till 4-5am. Alarm rings before I can get enough sleep.

Hi Michelle,
I'm also like you. Got to force myself to eat. And will feel very bloated afterwards.
The weird thing is I often can't tell whether I have stomach discomfort or I'm hungry. E.g. For breakfast, I ate 4 pcs of dry crackers, one muffin, one slice of bread and one cup of oats. One hr later, the weird tummy feeling comes and I can't tell if it's hunger or stomach discomfort. So I don't know what to do.

Mrs Clarice, im also like u.. Prefer to buy dresses.. Feels more comfy and less headache cos mo need to match.

Do you ladies start buying new underwear? Find mine getting tight.
 
Congrats and welcome drypantz!! Great to have one more lady to go through this slow and like never-going-to-end 9 months together.
I also told my boss few days after I knew I was pregnant cos of bad ms.. It's tough having to act like not pregnant.. My poor colleagues heard me puking and started asking.. So in a way, no choice got to tell..
 
Welcome drypantz...
Recently at nite I cant slp well, got discomfort in the tummy. Anyone experiencing the same like me?
 
Linda : i did not experience it but i do feel pek chek because i cant sleep ... then hb play classica music for me ... less than 5 min i snoring liao ... haha
 
Juniorme and mabelcherry, thanks for the kind words! I got a one yr old gal already, have to carry her n pat her sleep every night, very hard to take a rest n prevent spotting. II got a maid, but she also need to do housework, so I have to help out every now then
. This pregnancy is really long, n I don't enjoy it.
 
Huijun: i have the same problem, i will have abit of pain on the left side of my womb, dunno is it due to my cyst.. there is even a night i woke up in pain... havent seen my gynae yet to noe wad is going on. my appt is only on 13 Sep.
 
Carice,
what's your reason for not able to fall asleep? Classical music helps?
I've been losing sleep these few nights too. Feel very tired but mind just cannot switch off, wonder if it's a phase or just me ...
 
mummies: when you can't fall asleep try to relax yourself ard 1 hr before bed so that the mind can rest and not so tense up. Classical music does help alot too.. also not to do work or watch tv on bed so that our body knows that bed is for sleeping.. dunno how true but my fren told me it works.
 
gosh i feel so quilty now... i had nasi padang for lunch and coke.... have been taking soft drinks for the past few days now so guilty.
 
tracey>. try not to carry ur girl too long, and sit on the sofas or bed intead when carrying her?

at least u have one pregnancy experience... instead the pregnancy is long... especially the MS is intense stage... really horrible... very low moral... dunno when is going to end..

303jun> i brought new cotton panty and bras already... some bras really too tight and some undies also too tight... very uncomfortable...
i need some maternity shhorts for weekends going out... current one, wear le, bottom up got a lump of fats popping out, after meal, can burst the buttom i think.. LOL

drypantz>> welcome to our group... what u experiencing i fully understand... i wanted to inform my boss only after week 12, and has to pretend like nothing happen which is very tough... keep yawning at work, especially i took the medicine for MS, making me sleepy... then if i dont take, i feel terrible even to sit down...
now at week 13, i still no chhance tell my boss yet cos i am attached out at week 11, went back office a couple of times but boss either busy or on leave... MS will subside when approaching week 11... i did for me... touchwood... hee...

huijun>> i got some classical CD too... i read up and i think the BB's ears can only hear sounds at week 20...i got gf who brought the baby plus to strap round their tummy and let their BB listen music at later stage..
for our stage nw, listening to soothing music of us like helps to keep our mood peace and calm... so our heart beat more regulating and BB inside feeling at peace also... this is my opinion...

ladies, today i gave myself break, took MC to rest at home... LOL... i told doctor i feeling headache... and doctor took my pressure and everything was fine, and still gave me 2 days MC... :p
planning for a brisk walk this evening if weather is good... think i can be a little more active nw.. hee...

Hi, I recently delivered and would like to clear some items which I’m no longer using.

These include:
Brand new baby and toddler clothes from Osh Kosh B’gosh/Carter’s/J Khaki/Nursery Rhyme, MyBrestFriend pillow, baby carrier, cot mattresses, Spiffies tooth wipes, Mothercare and carter’s prewalker shoes etc . Check out my link below!

Thanks, ladies who have visited my album before! I have added new items so do take a look.

If you see anything you need, pm me for discussion.
Lastly, have a safe delivery and enjoy motherhood!
 
Michelle : Personally thinks that Woody is a good and efficient gynae. Bad thing abt him is the super long Q and waiting hrs and also super fast session when you finally get to see him. he will just ask u the standard qns like "how are you?" then will ask u to lie down to do ultrasound scan. Then ask if you have any more qns and then send you out of the room. Super chop chop and no extra info given unless you ask. but when you do ask, he will definitely explain and answer ur qns (at a super sonic speed though). haha. oh, and he can be quite witty and humorous at times...

My #1 was delivered by Woody too. The night before delivery i was quite upset with him for scaring me with statistics to persuade me to induce birth. That night when i visited him, he found out my water level is going low and asked me to induce that very night so that i can give birth the next day (which i was half suspecting that it is cos he will be at TMC full day on weds so it will be more convenient for him... haha..). when i said i need to consider cos i want to let the baby choose when to pop, he quoted to me that 1 in 10 babies end up in stillbirth (dunno if i rem correctly). I felt quite threatened and was feeling so vexed and upset to be quoted such statistics i told myself i will never go back to him again. but the whole delivery was so smooth and efficient that i decided to go back to him again for my #2.

hmmm so in a nutshell, if you want someone good and efficient you can go to him, but if you need more attention and info then he might not be a good choice

hope this helps!
 
Thanks Drypants at least he able to answer what u ask... my #1 gynea i ask but no answer so i so upset that time as already pay for the package....
 
wenwen: My bosses also like yours. For me I have work from home access so weekends & when I'm on leave, also need to clear urgent work. Sianz. I envy your good appetite. I can't even finish my sandwich for lunch ;P Now tummy alot of wind... not sure hungry or just discomfort.

Read that some mummies have insomnia. I don't know why but can sleep v well leh. hahaha...

On classical music, choose 1 that you like. I use to have 1 album & whenever I heard I will get headaches... don't know why. Hahaha...
 
Zelda, Michelle,
I was sleeping v well too till these few nights. My hb is away on a work trip and the kids came over to sleep with me. End up I get awaken by the slightest sound they make then couldn't get back to zzz.

Zelda,

BB : i think i too stress of my mil i just hoping that my hubby dont let her know first.... cause once she know liao i sure kanna..... then she is the person like eat this n that will sure have boy.... but i dont want have this type of stress anymore...... tire.....

Hi Ladies....

U all prefer eat sweet things or salty things nowadays.....
 
Michelle: I can only take sweet stuff when it comes to drinks, cannot even drink plain water which is totally opposite from #1 where I drink lots of it, hopefully, gender for #2 is different from #1. Hehe
 
Michelle,
aiyoh ... pregnancy is already so tough plus all these stress. You are not staying with her, right? Maybe just ignore her if she makes any remarks after she knows.

I prefer sweet stuffs. Been craving for sweet drinks, cakes, dessert & etc ...
happy.gif
 
I'm like totally banned from sweet drinks cos they are normally cold and cold stuff is not good for the baby? So end up keep drinking plain water and seriously getting quite sick of it... :s
 
michelle - eat sweet concieve babygirl? got logic? lol..

Anyone tried the gender predictor/calculator?

my boss just asked me y i keep taking mc lately.. -,-" he tot its my girl who fall sick. haha..
 
Back from my med appt. Bb is doing well n tomorrow go tmc for Oscar. Yeah no more jab.

Zelda : dr Fong say only week 16 then can see. They did ask me to test the strip n weight.
 
BB : ya i not staying with her..... but she will keep looking for me then make sure i eat or drink in front of her... if i dont dare to eat she complaint to my fil n say me..... this is the part i hate n stress when force me to eat i dont like..... i more want to vomit..... now i understand why my sil dont want to give birth since 10yr plus till now......
