BBL,
Yes, ur NT scan is normal.
All, thanks for all your prayer and blessings!
I m trying to call the expert in fetal medicine in NUH, so tat he can see te little one. I m gonna to stay strong and battle this hard time with the little one. Keep telling bb keep staying strong, keep healthy so that we can accept you. Keep telling baby that I can't bear to leave the little one too if the worst thing happened. as went thru the fertility treatment and so much hardwork in first trimester. Hopefully amionicentesis will be ok. That's my last hope now.

BBL> then i think I will just take the normal one.. I believe baby should be fine... no calls from gynae will be good.
Korean ginseng, my SIL drank it n has spotting in her 4 mths plus. Hence, I will consult TCM n check my body base first b4 taking tonics food. I think each individual body is different, some herbs may good to others but may not suitable to u.
An alternative to bird nest is white fungus. But try not taking the black fungus, can cause MC.

MummyR> which kind of maternity bra is a better choice?
I also got my birdnest from Kuching. Can't recall the price, we bought 'xue yen' n 'tong yen'. Tried 'wu yen' but taste not tat nice. Love bird nest. Clearing the feather not easy but it's Hb task, hehe.. Haven't start drinking since pregnant. Will start next week, once/twice a week. Hope my stock can last till delivery.

Yanlin, do look on the +ve side. hope that your bb will be well.
mahjong, now the retail shops still have those dress that are big at the bottom. we can wear w a belt that kind. i bought a few of those so now wear w belt. when tummy gets bigger, just dont wear belt lor. after birth can wear again. wont be wasted. i bought maternity pants from Gmarket since my normal pants cannot wear already. i dont think i need to buy anymore maternity clothes, i hope.. prob weekend can wear hubby's shirt! the sad thing is my office doesnt allow leggings to be worn.. i got a few (cos my previous can wear)
Sherry, all the best for OSCAR! Thurs my turn. i ask the nurse at gynae clinic, she say no need to do fasting leh.. wierd hor. how come not consistent one.

my hb tried brewing the chicken essence soup on sunday. The taste is not bad but quite oily so rem to remove the fats and skin and drink before you sleep. I gave my hb drink some and he commented that he can sleep more soundly.. hahahha..
What you all will do with the chicken meat after that??..now still lying in my fridge

JC, my gynae also nvr say but i guess they are quite accurate. cos the dimension given by the bb app is exactly as the ultra scan. think put on less than 2kg is ok.
hey, can we drink home cooked barley? cos go outside drink kopi w colleagues during lunch, duno what to drink if dowan kopi/tea...
mango > nvr heard before that mango is poisonous leh?? i think if eat a little is ok lar. since mango is heaty, it is better than liang food right?

Hi girls, was dragged out for CNY visiting last weekend. Left me more tired then I can handle. Ended up with pain in the tummy area, committed myself to bedrest, at least I tried.
yingying: Yup. Damn cheap. But look at how they handle things when I bleed. =_=!! I have completely no faith in their doctors.
Kitty: It gets worse everyday when I'm here.
Baby_cloud: Delivering in Sg. Problem is, after delivery I have to deal with the problem of the baby's full month. Obviously I can't fly back in time for the full month thingy but I doubt they understand. Then now baby's passport is no longer attached to parent, so need a passport for the child. Airline regulation is that you need a return ticket before they let you board the plane to Taiwan unless you have the Alien Resident Card (ARC), I have it, but baby don't have. So need to solve that problem too.
I nearly snap too. But my hubby is quite nice to me. Just that the parenting here is still very traditional and he was taught that way.
QQ: I'm actually considering that. Secretly of course. But have to slowly see. Hubby wanted to keep the kid here cause the grandparents are here. I told him, I'll only consider the child's well being and him. And not his parents cost everything they considered is for their benefit and not for us.
It is crazy. A bilingual education for primary school here cost $15,000 sgd. If we have the kind of money, it is akin to sending the kid to a private school in Sg. =_=
ET: The mil is really horrible.
The taiwanese loves this dish that is cooked with tons of rice wine and sesame, it is really heaty. Last I had it, I couldn't sleep well cause too heaty le. I tried explaining to them and was forced to eat the dreaded dish that resulted in insomnia till 6am.
Told hubby I need to do more bed rest on Mon cause I'm totally drained out by the weekend. Monday early morning, MIL started banging on my door, no. Not knocking, woke up startled and tummy started to hurt.
Even when I was in the washroom and replied that I'm in the washroom, will come out soon, she demanded that I opened the door. =_=!!
When I told fil that the banging startled me and resulted in my tummy pain, he said, I should eat more carbohydrates (?!!!!)
I give up on explaining to them. Their idea of pregnancy and babies is that expectant mothers and young children should eat everything. And most of the things they wanted me to eat had a caution statement stating that, "If pregnant, please consult a physician before consuming the product." So now, anything they give me, if it is something I have not heard about, I will just politely decline (or at least I try)

Kitty:
The women in the family don't have MS and so they can't sympathies with me.
My mum knows I can more than provide for myself and the child in Sg so she say she will support my decision no matter what.
BBL:
Even the helper can see it, she say, the mil is only nice to her own children. And when she said it, I teared cause it's horribly true.
Hubby has a elder sister and 2 younger brothers.
Even if they are in the wrong, she will twist the fact to protect them. Even my mother witnessed it. When confronted, she will say no la, they are still young, still impulsive.
Hubby is very understanding about this whole incident. I told him I'll kanna depression if I have to face his mum any longer. As he will be traveling for work, he will be sending me back in March, way before EDD is due.
I intend to come back in Nov, told him I needed time to finish up paperwork and passport for baby. But I guess I also need more time in Sg to recuperate and get used to caring for the child by myself.
It is just a shame, cause pil appear to be so nice in front of everyone, even before marriage. It's just a facade as far as I can see.
