Welcome and congrats to all new MTBs!
wow, this thread is getg more exciting by the day
zara - i experienced a bit of diarrhoea about a week ago, but just for one day, a bit.... but i thought it could be partly cos i had started drinking a bit of milk in the morn, maybe i wasn't used to it.. and after that day, no more...
i think if you have diarrhoea persistently, should defintely see the doc. As for runny nose, if not too bad, i think it's part of the symptoms sometimes?

babypom - i think if i were you i will just avoid bringing out the pole for now.. it's quite heavy... can you switch to hanging inside the house? or get someone else to do it?
As for your MIL, aiyo, poor thing. just ignore her, but try to be careful yourself and not exert as much as poss?

Hi ladies, congrats to all. I'm from the April thread. Saw you gals discussing about housework. Just tot I'll share with you all since most of you have not seen Gynae yet.
Advice from my Gynae for 1st trimester: do not carry more than 5kg (so no laundry pole pls!). Do not do run or jog (not even for bus). Sex limit to once a week, not too rough (if spotting no sex!!)
Have a sticky baby everyone!

rosegal: had diarrhea om two consecutive notes but only went once a night la.. So I guess still ok. I will ask the gynae on Monday anyway. 
Baby fran: I have a bit of discharge, really wee bit. Cos I usually put on the pantyliner so I can feel the wetness. Normal?
Thanks tangerine! Ur advice is v useful!

@baby n zara: I started to have pretty much discharge since yesterday, u can feel the wetness and for a moment, I tot I was bleeding. Thank god it's nt after I rush down to the toilet n check. I google online, it says that having discharge is normal, it is going to last thru out ur pregnancy and will be heavier during the last trimester!
I don't feel right the whole day today, sleep more than I expected, thrown up few times. Haiz, seems like the reality is kicking in.

Hi baby, my gynae for my #1 is Dr Fong Yang. He is very good, patient n really can talk type. But he is expensive compare wif others. Package $700 start abt 25 weeks, after detailed scan. N heard my friend said $10 extra charge if see him on sat. I still thinking whether should I change gynae if I got 2nd cox is exp. Dr Benjamin is very good, recommended by my friend. Maybe u can try. Ya agreed Dr Lawrence Ang very chop chop type although he is d cheapest in town I guess. Hope u can find a good gynae. Tk cr! N wish u hv a healthy n sticky bb

Baby vanilla: i went to second gynae, thinking to find a second opinion and find a comfortable gynae. In the end, the second gynae first check up cost me $258. I realise that the first check is always more exp, so if you trying, will add up cost. The exact same thing my first gynae did, cost $180. subsequent will be cheaper. Also has package after 1st trimester. can consider my first gynae, she is at Thomson Medical, DR Sim, LNSim.
Btw, is my first bb too... heheh...

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.

Babykk, I was really lucky.. I strike on my 2nd month of trying.
Ayana, hees.. so we will be expecting our EDD to be very near as well.. my gynae is in TMC, maybe we will see each other on our due date if urs is at TMC hahaha
My me, I am eating like crazy.. haizz.. instead of morning sickness, I tend to eat much more. Base on my first experience, I put on a lot. 22kg and I was often “warned” by my gyae to watch my diet. I must must control this time round..
Tangerinez, my boy keeps asking me to carry him as he’s very sticky to me. He is 15 kg.. so I hope won’t affect me.

Baby: my second Gynae was like that too, I ask her what can I eat n not eat, she look at me at say I already print out the article, can you go home n read? Omg so pissed..
Can understand what you mean. I think male Gynae more gentle and patient.
Babypom: tks so much. Hopefully all goes well.
Hi all, I realize that after every meal eat a bananas, will prevent nausea, it help baby to build strong nerve..

Hi all,
I am a first time mum to be too. Did a test on 8 Sept as I was 4 days late. Super happy to see the positive indicator. Bought the digital test kit again the following day and it says 3+. Went to the gynae the next day. However, he did not manage to see anything during the scan as he said it is too early. So will be seeing him again next 2 weeks.
Anyways have any of you started experiencing morning sickness aldy? I was vomitting almost the whole day yesterday and once this morning. I hope it will not last that long.
Praying hard all will be fine as we have been waiting for this baby for 2 years.

Baby> *wave* So happy to see you here!!!! I do feel crampy as well. Trying not to think of the negative stuffs. Bb is all ok! You are ok, I am ok, We are all ok!!!!!
Hi to the rest of the mummies! Will slowly catch up on the earlier posts.
I dunno am I just too happy or what, but I feel that my lower tummy is growing. And when I just had a meal, I feel hungry liao. I hope this hunger bangs will go away asap cos only at 4 weeks+, I'm eating like a pig. I cant imagine my appetite when I'm at week 24! I did not have this growing appetite for my previous one.
Have not gone to my gyne yet. Might do so after 20 Sept, which is about week 6. Meanwhile, I will just take my vitamins daily.

Ha, Chloie, I feel the same too! Feel hungry but I try to eat small meals so that I do not get too full and feel nauseous..
Olivia: Oh! We are seeing the same doc! I will be seeing her at my 7th week to see bb's heartbeat too
I am praying I will see its strong beating..
farhana: Doc cant see anyth when I went for scan at wk 5 too, not to worry..
Baby: I have the cramps on and off, I realised I have it when I walk around too often or stand for too long..but shouldnt be a prob, could be the uterus expanding..

Olivia> I went to a gyne near my office, intending to do a scan to confirm the pregnancy. But doc was not in. The nurse was very sweet too. Told me to go back after week 6 cos I'm at week 4 now so scan also cant see anythg. Meantime just continue with the folic acid. So I bua kam wan, I called up my gyne's clinic and asked the nurse. Told me the same thing too. So looks like I will go after week 6.
Baby> I started seeing Dr Tham from Apr'11. He was the one who gave me the clomid. Strike on the first cycle but I dont think I will go back to him. No particular reason why. Maybe cos I have never like TMC [horrible parking & long waiting hours] & cos it remind of my girl so most probably I will go back to my previous gyne, Dr Choo.
ublur & Olivia> My LMP was 8 Aug too!!!! 8/8 = HUAT HUAT !!!!!!
babypom> *Hugs Hugs* Dont be affected by what your mil say. Must be happy! Then bb will be a cheerful & happy one too!
babyfran> Me! Have been having lots of watery discharge. Got to get change the pantyliner more frequently liao.
House Keeping> I told hb to help bring out the heavy poles. The rest I will just do it on my own. I prefer not to be too pampered else alot of burden will be on my hb. I will leave walking the dog to hb as my dog is very "welcoming". Now can only sayang him while he is in the cage. Housework shall be shared btw us like in the past. I was still scrubbing the toilet during week 30 for my previous preg. So no worries!

Hello all,

Looks like most of u have engaged a gynae. Have yet to set an appointment with one as i am unsure of who is good. Any female gynae who is recommmended?
So glad to have this forum to share our experiences.
