Hi babyKK, go and buy the digital clearblue pregnancy kit. It will show you pregnant or not pregnant. Very clear. I tested a normal kit, and the line is ver fade.. So bought this digital one to confirm, and it show.. Now guardian has promo, $19.90
wow - this thread is moving fast! Welcome to all newly joined MTBs once again!
babypom - wow! 12mm and 4 w 2 days? I was also into 5th week when I saw gynae last week and at 6mm, he didn't say anything much...! Only asked me to go back next week... hopefully all goes well!
I'm also showing a bit! I find it hard to fit into my normal jeans already! I don't want to squeeze them in for fear of beanie.. my clothes choices are greatly limited for now! Till I decide to tell those around me, then don't need to 'hide' the 'bump'..
Zara - i'm having similar symptoms as you, & seeing gynae on mon too!
bbay kk - hmm, yes, perhaps try the digital clearblue preg kit, more accurate?
Take care everyone! TGIF! Weekend's coming!

zara - yes! we can update everyone after mon
sadsad - thanks for the tip! prob is , i seldom wear skirts/dresses to begin with, heh... maybe now is the time tho...?
babypom - you're right! A/P John Tee set my next appt on 12Sept, which happens to be the same as the earlier appt I had made with Dr LC Cheng... I am not sure if I should go for both yet tho... or should I just stick with A/P John Tee...... Tough decision... Perhaps I'll wait till I have the first appt on Mon (with Dr Tee) then see how it goes..
enjoy your shopping!
babykk, let us know what happens, fingers crossed for ya!

happy for you babykk!!
congratz (again hehe) babykk! I get cramps too (initially i thot mense reporting) and its normal.
taken from http://www.babiesonline.com/articles/pregnancy/pregnancycramping.asp
Some women start cramping shortly after they get a positive pregnancy test as their uterus starts preparing to carry a baby for nine months. The uterus is a big organ and as it grows in early pregnancy cramping is expected.

Hi All,
I am so happy to see all of you doing so well. I would like to join the club.
Found out i was preggie on the 31 aug, went to check the next day, but nothing can be seen on ultrasound. Went for 2nd appt yesterday, saw the gestational sac but not the yolk sac. Been told i am currently 5 weeks. I also went for blood test to determine how many weeks and days i am really at. Seeing my doc in 10 days time, wish me luck ladies.
Oh btw, this is my 1st pregnancy, super paranoid and excited. wish to share and learn more things from all of ya.

Welcome Francesca! You are very on the ball! I tested positive one day earlier than you and have also been to the gynae already. But mine was at 4weeks so gynae didnt even bother to scan. also never take blood test, damn bo chup. haha. just ask me to go back end of week6.
this is my first pregnancy too.
do you girls think there's a need to "interview" more than 1 gynae? I am quite comfortable with this first one i'm seeing, but i also made an appointment with another gynae highly recommended by my colleague. but wondering if it's necessary? this other one supposedly very good with stitching etc...but also more expensive.. any thoughts?

Welcome fern & francesca!
Heh, yes, olivia & babypom, cannot tell anyone really v xinku... i'm trying to withold the truth from my parents... last week met them, they were having white wine (some celebration) and they poured me a glass before i arrived.. so when i rejected, i had to cook up an excuse! (i said i had diarrhoea so better don't take alcohol) Then my mom said, "oh, your hubby ordered oyster for you, then better don't take right", to which i had to quickly say, 'oh, but it's cooked, so it's ok'. Phew!
Then this coming week, we are going for a buffet!! Surely there will be sashimi etc... then they will surely ask when they see i'm not having any, when usually i will take... yikes!!
i think i will continue with my stomach flu lie... hopefully can smoke them...!

hope the sac is visibleHi all mummy to be,
i just tested positive earlier this week. Was very confused with the very faint lines that i actually tested for the next few days and a digital kit yesterday. Finally convinced after seeing pregnant 2-3.
I should be in my 5th wk now but i haven seen a doc or gynae yet. I was told to see the gynae the following wk...
first time mummy here and feeling bit anxious! Hope to learn from all and share experiences or info... all the best to all!

Baby kk, thanks.. seems like there are many first time mummies here.. sure very excited..

my LMP is 8th Aug..
rem to buy folic acid first and start eating now!

Morning all MTBs!
Ublur: my LMP same as u! Aug 8!
Babypom: light housework should be fine I think. I just cleaned my apartment, wash toilet, mop floors etc. But I think just avoid squatting (e.g. to wipe floors) for extended period. I also try to use organic household cleaners. At least not so harsh chemicals. I also wear mask when cleaning to avoid inhaling in too much toxic fumes.

morning morning..
i am still at work and gg to leave the office soon.. *zzz*
babyporn, i tink u're right, need to eat slowly.. i read somewhere that our body is slowing down the digestion process so that bb can absorb better.. so if we eat a lot or too much, our stomachs will be very full n make us feel uncomfy..
as for housework, gotto depend on hubbs more.. i tire easily.. but can still "wash" the clothes and fold/iron them.. best part is he volunteers to wash my car too! yay!
have a good weekend!
