SillyJ, unfortunately i think there are more insensitive / non pro-family companies out there than not.
I had ex colleagues who got terminated when they were pregnant, and another friend's co also did that to a pregnant lady.

Hey mummies, any of you have that 'wanna vomit' feeling while brushing your teeth in the mornings? I actually vomitted gastric juice this morning while trying to brush my teeth. And the more I brush, the more I vomitted. Best part is it started only in wk 13 :///
Anyone with the same problem? Really hope this is normal..

Good Morning Mummies
Hehe.. so many of us having the same thing with our mother. Now my mum is itching to know the baby gender, so that she can go and 'spread' the news again. Though Im also not aware, Im quite sure, I won't be telling her any sooner when I know it. Hehe.. sweet 'revenge', making her heart itching (xin yang yang).
RE: Brushing of teeth
I also gag each time I brush my teeth. It started quite early, like week 5/6. I read somewhere that some mummies avoided the toothpaste and got better. I also brushed without toothpaste since and its slightly better. Although still gag, but at least not too bad.

Btil - Don't worry. Once your pregnancy news is more widespread, and more people are aware of your pregnancy (ie your tummy gets much bigger), you will get more hand-me-downs. Trust me. People can't wait to get rid of their old baby clothes.
Actually, my neighbour even offered her baby cot to me but I declined because I already have one, which was a hand-me-down. I also had a hand-me-down car-seat too from my cousin, which helped to save a lot of money. I also used credit card pts and vouchers to buy my McClaren stroller.

So dun worry.. As the news spread more ppl will offer to pass you thgs..</font>

Sing Ling: I talk to baby every day and hubby reads to baby every night. For no. 1, I used to fall asleep to classical music but I haven't done that yet for this one - I should start. My no.1 loves music.
Speaking of maternity clothes, I was stressed yesterday and splurged on a few pieces from Dote (they double up as nursing wear and I remember the few pieces I got during No. 1's time were of good quality). Check them out

novembaby, please add me.. my fb is [email protected]
kanelmo & May, u both r so lucky.. when i was preg with my #1, no one offered me anything leh..
i guess mayb cos i'm among the first in my group of friends to get married and give birth.. so lesser people around me wanna get rid of stuffs...
sha85, better call gynae to check....
ming8110, i haven't put on any weight since 1 month ago... 0 increment... i guess nothing to worry since my gynae never said anything about my weight... he only say that it's a good sign that mayb i'm not vomitting too much..

Am taking some mother's milk every day to see if I can put on some weight - although I am not keen to put on as much as I did for no. 1 (put on 18 kg which was too much honestly).
Btil: No harm asking to see if you can borrow some items which you will really only use for a few months. We borrowed an infant car seat for 6 months last time round and returned it when our friends were expecting their next kid. Things like that you really only need to borrow for a few months anyway. And when it was our turn we loaned my daughter's cocoona to another friend's new born who returned it after 4 months. Sort of like recycling
I just play music normally in the background. I am not sure it is a good idea to place ear phones directly on the tummy - can be too loud I guess. I know Mrs Wong Boi Boi frowns upon it and told her students not to do it so I simply followed.
