Pre eclampsia. Signs r protein in urine, high bp, over water retention.
For me, my bp was high during preg from the start. Keeps going up. I did the blood test, no prob also. On delivery day, bo goes mad abv 160.

Oh yes I took that too! But didn't really do anything for me in terms of milk production. Neither did fenugreek+blessed thistle leh. Hopefully this time milk supply will be better with #2. I keep hearing of friends who were literally flowing like a river (one had to buy an extra freezer just for her EBM!). So jealous
Haru
Wow sounds yum! I had early lunch (1130) and early din (530), hopefully if I trick my tummy into thinking it's not meal time, I won't throw up haha
Aiyoh
I was happily walking toward a reserved seat on mrt when a very not pregnant woman overtook me to grab it. Tsk. Lucky got other seats.
Yikes pre eclampsia sounds scary!!

pinkbunny,
i found that fenugreek etc also didn't really do much for me. thankfully i still managed to bf for 2.5 yrs. my boobs are getting sore much earlier this time. hopefully it means more milk for #2!! i wonder how i could wake up every night at 3am to pump for almost more than a year! +.+
i put on 10kg with #1, and she was almost 3kg, but i am really trying very hard to control food intake this round. my gynae is anal about excessive weight gain so i guess that would help to keep my weight gain in check! if not, have to be prepared to kena scolding every check up,hahah...

Pinkbunny: Fenugreek gives me diarrhea. No idea whether the milk supply increase or not. All I knew was if i were to continue, I will prob kena dehydration. Dehydration, i don't think will have any milk left lar!
Yes. Pre Eclampsia like diabetes is scary! Must really take care. I am trying to rest a lot more this round. It is helping to keep my BP down. So far, still below 130. Hoping it will not go up. I also realised that I get very very very bad aches on my left neck/shoulder area. My masseuse says it's cause of the high bp. And true enough, after delivery, the pain and aches went away almost immediately. And a few good massages helped to loosen everything up.
Lactose Intolerance: I almost forgot about this until my MIL called to remind me! There's lactose free milk! Can buy from cold storage or NTUC Finest. Some normal NTUC sells also! I am so gonna get some tomorrow! Yeah! I totally forgot that I got that when i had #1! hahahahaha
Haru: My gynae also quite particular about excessive weight gain. So I will continue to work hard to keep everything within limits, abt 10kg for me i hope.
I know someone who put on only 5kg for both pregnancies and delivers 2 healthy bbs abt 3kg lar! And she is definitely not big size to start with! So it can be done! Just need healthy diet! Don't over indulge in snacks n sugary stuff! And of course, suitable exercise!
Stay healthy everyone!!!!
For #1 i also put on abt 10kg or maybe slightly less, and she was delivered healthy @ 2.8kg. =P I was lucky to lose all the weight within a month, back to pre-preg size and even slightly smaller.

Talking about weight gain...
I put on lots of weights for my past 2 failed IVF. When I started my weight loss program, I suddenly conceived naturally. And I haven't lost any kilos!!!!
Now I have to watch my weight gain seriously as I'm not a small sized person. I have an 'ang mo' built. I really admire those mummies who can just buy larger sized clothes from normal stores. I totally can't, have to source for US big cutting types.

Congrats dragon mummy on conceiving naturally. What a miracle
Cheekyduckie
Wow only put on 5kg! I think I put on 12-13kg with #1 and she was 3.12kg. I remember stepping on the scale at hospital the day after birth and feeling very gek sim cos I was seriously just 3.12kg lighter haha.
Fellow MS mummies
I discovered something! When I eat at a leisurely and non stressful pace, I tend to keep my food better! Maybe you can try too? See if it works for you

Dragonmummy, I think in general Singaporean girls are just smaller built. When I was a student in the UK, I could buy the smaller sizes, once I came back I could only buy L size! Felt so depressed!
Thanks, Pinkbunny!
El, at least you can fit into L. I totally can't. Sob Sob Sob....
Saw some nice maternity dresses locally, I can't fit in them. Even if I fit in them, these dresses become my tops instead. "HEADACHE"
I bought online too (US sites). Supposed to be "BIG", when arrived... cutting is so small so have to give away and there are some that are so so BIG!!!
Haiii.... I am so troublesome!
When all of us meet at a gathering one fine day, you'll understand why my size is neither here nor there.

Haru, my gyane is Dr Lee Keen Whye at #08-15.
CheekyDuckie, just in case my PM didn't get through to you, my email is [email protected]. Thanks.
Actually, my weight gain was in control but sudden shot-up in the last few weeks, last scan baby was 3.2kg. My then gynae has advised weight gain to be kept between 12-14kg, I gained 18kg. I was a super duper vain pot mum, once I'm able to get up, I got my HB to wheel me to the weighing scale, offloaded 6+kg, phew.
I've changed my gynae, this time, I'm "authorized" to gain 12-16kg. I'm into my 13week, gained around 1.5kg.
Look back, I was still able to wear fit into my regular clothing till 16weeks then, now at 12+weeks, I need to wear my maternity bottom, tummy is expanding at a much faster speed!!!
Anyone has tried the BabyPlus? http://babyplus.com.sg/
Anyone going to Robinson's private sale?

Dragon Mummy - Have you tried shopping at Mothersatwork or MEV? I find the sizing of clothes there are bigger. I can get away with wearing "S"!

andreanie- I don't normally sleep on my stomach so the issue hasn't arisen. However, if you are worried abt sleeping on your stomach (without consciously choosing to), maybe you can try using a pillow to block? i.e. putting in front or behind you when you sleep on the side

Hi mummies I am back frm my gynae visit! And so lucky to meet one of the April 2012 mummies there, summerbliss!
Baby is 14w2 days and is 8.4cm long. Dr Ho commented that baby is long, follow daddy's tall genes! I am secretly glad. Dun follow my short genes can Le. Gender is still unknown yet!
Regarding weight gain. I have gained 2kg so far! Hope to slow it down. See if I can gain just 10kg this entire pregnancy. Had a terrible hard time losing the extra fats for #1!
This weekend is the baby fair at expo right? May Pop by to take a look!

I'm now 13w1d and my bump has popped!!! It's annoying how we can buy regular clothes this week and the next thing we know, can't fit already. Sheesh.... any affordable places for maternity wear?
Whose going to baby expo this weekend!?!?

I think there's a mothers at work at tanglin mall and one at great world city. Mothers en vogue if I recall correctly, is at the mall opposite forum, between orchard towers and orchard parade hotel.
Sleep
I just toss till I find a comfy position! But have never been a tummy sleeper though I do enjoy reading while on tummy hehe. Better do that all I can now!
Tummy getting bigger and bigger. Now my normal home t-shirts can't even cover belly button liao!

Mel, Robinson private sale is only today!!! I came out empty-handed cause the cashier queue was damn long.
Hokkaido, really!!! do you go to him too? I read reviews that he do not overbooked himself and we need not wait long. Last year, I went to him and find him "steady" and assuring, therefore, continue with him. His nurse is nice too, remember you by name, very impressed. My 1st gynae sucks big time, appointment at 2pm or 3pm, I can wait till 6pm!!! Every little thing, she'll refer you to specialist!!!

silvery gal, my gynae blurted out my little one's gender during my 12th week scan. though she says not confirmed lar.. ask us to wait for the 16th week amnio report

Silvery_gal: My gynae was pretty confident she can tell me the bb's gender by next visit. I shd be abt 17 weeks then.
Usu boys can confirm earlier. Cos more obvious mah. But of cos, if scan 1st ger, den better to wait for 5th month dtled scan. Cos boys' parts develop slower! So dun go celebrate first! haha.
Maternity clothes. 1 day i look preg, 1 day i dun look preg. That's how badly the size of my belly changes! hahahaha... But I don't care. I just wear my maternity clothes lor. More comfy leh! At least got space for belly "growth" throughout the day. hahahaha. I also packed up all my normal clothes already. Else no space in wardrobe to put maternity clothes. =P

Silvery_gal: Yes! hahahaha... I have like 5 Maternity Pants. Ehhh... 7-8 dresses? And another 10 tops or something. That's excluding whatever maxi dresses, babydoll tops which I can still wear throughout. haha... Am intending to buy more. My excuse is that my PT maid only comes fortnightly, so I need to have enuff clothes to cycle for 2 weeks.
Aiya: Maternity wear (real maternity wear) is not cheap. So better wear early! Must make my money worth! Luckily I can still wear everything from #1 days! Else I think i will need to buy even more! I have actually shortlisted more clothes to buy lor, just haven't click the "BUY" button.
Dragon mummy: My hb nag nag nag nag nag nag nag about my clothes lar! Basically my normal clothes were spilt over to his side of the wardrobe and onto the portable clothes rack in the study. So i have no choice but to pack them up. As I packed them, I just kept chanting, "I hope I can wear these again in a year's time". My mother was laughing at me! Some of the clothes were pre-wedding size. Haha... Maybe I shd just throw them away! wahahahahahaha.

CheekyDuckie : at least your hb noticed. My hb act blur!!! So as to avoid me telling him to pay for the maternity clothes. And yes, they are EXPENSIVE!!!
My mum has been nice. She helped me to wash the new maternity clothes and also 're-invent' some for me (eg, add a button to a scarf to make it an overall).

Cheeky, you AL Ong?
Maternity wear, tell me about it, last pregnancy, I was working at RP, every few days will buy 1-2pc home!!! I've gave away a lot, those that I know I won't wear again kind. Lucky that I kept those standard plain/design that won't go out of trend. I prefer to wear pants cause I scare I may fall then whole world can see what's underneath!!! Lots of pants and capri, some work skirts and only 3-4 dresses!!!
Now got many options as compared to 6 years ago!!! Last time is either Thyme, 9moi, MEV, Spring, MotherWorks, Maternity exchange just opened not long, very limited.
I need to make sure I wear them to the max as will be my last time wearing them, squeeze the last cent out of them!!!

Meinme: yes! that's me! haha...
Silvery_gal: The new ones I got from ASOS! Nice and comfy like what Ni says. I got the cheap ASOS housebrand ones though.
I also got some of mine thro real shops like, Spring Maternity, some random maternity shops @ United Square (there have quite a lot of affordable and nice ones).
Ying: Local sizes are always smaller lar. No need to worry. I am also around there, either L or XL lor. Tops sometimes can still squeeze into M, but L most of the time. Yawnz.
For #1, I went to Spring so often, until the sales lady @ AMK knows me! Same as the lady @ Modern Maternity United Square. They will automatically take out their new arrivals for me. =S
Dragon Mummy: My mother paid for my 1st batch of maternity clothes for #1 leh! So lucky right. I think she was like super happy to have her 1st grandchild. Grand daughter somemore! And once she saw the super nice maternity dresses, she just kept passing them to me to try! I think she was prob very amazed at how maternity clothes are so nice now, compared to her times! Think she spent like $200 in that 1 hr we were in the shop.
The rest of the clothes, I buy myself lar.
Shoes: I am so so so so so tempted to get myself another pair of Fit Flops! But $170... Arggg... Have been dreaming about it for a few weeks already.

Thanks, I just wannat make sure that I've accepted the right person.
Thought FitFlops is not advisable for preggy? you go read under the Q&A section, need to consult dr. I think they are supposed to be slimming slipper, therefore, not suitable. Robinson selling 1 of the model at $85, only left the bigger size like 7 or 8 onwards.

MEinMe: I seriously doubt that the slippers will have any slimming effect. It's more like how the slipper is structured and how it will give u a greater workout while you walk. Not really slimming unless u walk a lot a lot in it.
When I first started wearing, you will realise that the feel is different from normal shoes/slippers. The balance is not the same. So preggers who want to start wearing must becareful not to fall.
Anyway, I have been wearing my current pair for a while. Should be ok.
Exercise is definitely good for everyone. I have other preg friends who were wearing their fit flops until delivery. No prob also.
Haha... I need size 6. Size 6 never goes on sale. =(
