Hello Mummies-to-be,

I've been reading the forum silently for many weeks since week 7, and I'm glad that the mummies here, mention about me and triplets' mummy. Thank you for your concern.

I am in my week14. And I'm looking forward to my Oscar result and visit my gynae end of this month.

1st trimester: I do have nausea from week 8 to 10. My MS happens when I brush my teeth, I've no idea why? But I'm glad that my appetite has been ok as my little ones want to eat. Foodwise, can be a challenge as they dislike my favourite steam fish and they are into potatoes, fried stuffs. Therefore, I've gained about 2kgs for my 1st trimester. And I realised that I can't fit into my pants during week 10.

Oscar test: Done my oscar test a day before Hari Raya. But they are sleeping very soundly. And they are not at the correct position for measurement. So, I was told to walk for 30mins, talk to them at TMC lobby. Haha. My gynae, Dr Ang told me that if they don't call me within 48 hours, the babies should be fine. And to get my assurance, I call them on that week's Thursday. The nurse told me that I will be getting the report on my next visit. So, I'm patiently waiting for that.

I just hope everything well for all mummies in this forum. Being a first time mum, I feel that I need to take good care of myself when I'm on train or bus, as there are many inconsiderate commuters who may bump into me, or refuse to give up their seat when they see my bump. I also have to be careful with what I eat but at times craving strikes, I can't say no to those food. And now, I will also have to forgo my yearly trip too.

Mummies, let's work hard to full term ba. Ganbatte...

 

[daisy_85]

Michelle - lol , np .. its up to u den =)

Twins Happiness - Take care !

Zelda - old ppl tink sotong also 多手多脚 haha !

 

[zelda_zard]

Twin_happiness: long time no hear

I'm glad everything is fine wif ur pregnancy so far. I guess ur OSCAR more difficult since u hv >1 bb. Ur tummy must oso b bigger than ours since u hv 2 bbs inside

Must take more rest since multiple births tend to b of higher risk.

Nurse just called me to say my OSCAR ok. So happy! Now left wif e uphill task of finding a CL.

 

[michelle22]

Daisy but I lazy find another one sian also now on the way to yishun..... So hungry now.....

[michelle22]

Chiny : u got fb ma...... I already try to control but hard.....

My nanny say eat whatever u want only grassjelly pls don't eat..... Ha ha my nanny is older than my mil n my mum but she is not that old fashion type.... Hee hee......

I sleep 1am last night but princess is getting better after meet my nanny cause she listen nanny words so wake up at 5am n now fir milk....... My first time nice sleep...... Hopefully everyday also like that......

 

[michelle22]

I not really like the catering menu.... So think need to look for part time cl need to see how much I think I only need for 1 - 2 weeks only after that I settle myself.....

 

[wiky]

Michelle,
oh ... I ate grass jelly too.

Daisy, Pine4ling,
I ate lots of crabs before my MS started too. I think we really bochap, eat everything, hahaha!!

Twin Happiness,
welcome. Finally see your post, hehe. You'll definitely gain more weight for multiple pregnancy. But do control towards the end else might be too heavy to move around.

Scans also not easy. That time we took 2-3 hours for my detailed scan for the twins. Both not cooperative, refused to turn to the correct side. We had to go walk around, drink hot drinks and nurse even asked me to jump abit to make them move in order to scan the spine, heart & etc ...

Hope your OSCAR test results come back well.

 

[michelle22]

BB : ur ok liao mine when i got #1 we took 5-6hrs for the detail scan end up the nurse beat my tummy to force scan..... haha.....

Hi Mummies,

Sorry for the interruption. I am a Jan '11 mommy who is letting go of a brand new lucky baby playmate (with pictures of animals printed on it)at $25. Orginal price was $30.

Also letting a baby swimming tub( used only 3 times) at $45. Bought in March '11 at $70. Self collect at CCK MRT or delivery can be arranged at $5.

Do PM me if interested. Price still negotiable. Thanks for reading.

 

[huijun]

Chiny: same here, did not slp a wink last nite... dunno why,maybe yesterday took a long nap... haiz... but till now still not tired, even vacuum the rm to find it so dusty...

Cannot eat tau huay, grassjelly as it contains SHI GAO which i heard is not gd for bb... Last time when i am heaty, i will drink the SE CHAO SUI (dunno wats the english name) now i can oni drink Perrier as it got the same purpose of relieving heatiness, tats what the ang moh do...

 

[daisy_85]

chinbbs - i guess slight amends is ok , they stated in FAQ ..

BB - ya , lol ..

anyway , old folks have a saying , when u crave for something while ur pregnant and u dont eat due to some reasons , wen baby is out will keep drooling de .. lol

so my mom say , just eat wat u wan , in moderation haha !

 

[daisy_85]

[kayemoss]

Michelle, i just went swimming today with my Mum at the public swimming pool. I felt so much better after swimming.

Just felt that for this pregnancy, i m so much lazier.. For #1, i went swimming every Mon nite with hubby &amp; also on weekends. Its only in my 3rd trimester that I find it tough to get up from the pool then i stopped swimming...

Those old uncle at the swimming ppl will always take a 2nd look at me when i get out of the water! They find it weird to hv a pregnant lady swimming...

But have to be careful while swimming coz sure got some jokers who will try to swim close for whatever reason.

 

[michelle22]

K@ye : when i got #1 i go friends condo there to swim de.... haha.... no people swimming much better.....

now no more liao have to go public swimming pool.... i got thinking go with my princess but hard lor..... alone lei.,....
