A few of the possible calcium overdose symptoms include (but are not limited to):
Kidney stones
Excessive drowsiness
Muscle weakness
Nausea and vomiting
Frequent urination
Changes in your heart rate
Confusion
Constipation or diarrhea
Headaches
Coma.

JLJ, it says 2.5g per day is the max intake. Hmm.. you go and read the supplement table on the milk carton and see 1 carton = how much calcium? Then how fast u finish the whole pack and guage from them? But my gynae says 2 glass per day is ok. normally calcium pills would not be prescribed so early in the pregnancy. But for my #1, my gynae nv prescribe any calcium tablet for me, preferring me to intake my calcium via milk.

Xta@ For peace of mind, i'll still test.. the results usually give you a probability or % of down syndrome in our population using our age, nuchal height etc.
I know some doctors routinely test irregardless, some will go by your age. Under 30s not high risk. Oscar tests can set you by $300++ so its not cheap.

my mum will be taking care... but i am still contemplating whether or not to get a helper to help her with the housework.
but the problem that i have is transportation!
if we go out during weekends with my mum, my car can't take all.. headache..
btw, heard from my colleague that her fren who is pregnant now has put her baby on Pat school house's waiting for child care!?!

Xta, i find it quite troublesome to split the taking care into so many ppl. Firstly, you got to prepare the necessities for all the location (your mom place and your MIL), eg, clothes, diapers, bb cot etc. And bb would be changing so many environment..i feel that wont be good to bb bah. But thats my opinion 
snowing, yes, you start looking now. Its a super KS world out there.Even by looking now, you might be on waiting list already.

Hi girls,
Have been a silent reader but decided to join
just turned 6 weeks today. Edd 24th dec. May I ask when was the earliest u guys started have MS? Cos I only have fatigue and slightly tender bbs. Quite worried since I don't have nausea or vomiting.

My MIL stay with us... and my mum stay opposite street. Very convenient for my mum to come hmmm...
Teaching wise, i would prefer my own mum of course. My hub was brought up by his grandma, so mil not much experience too -- i abit scare haha!
Just that both of the mums are working, i find that it might not be so nice to pull them out of the working force and risk not having a job 3-4 yrs later? If they are ok with this arrangement they can still work part time or arrange their working hours and still have some rest days hmm...
Just thinking haha! I haven't break the news to them! Waiting for my Gynae visit this thurs to confirm first!

hi mummies, i heard that we can only sign up for childcare when the baby is born. is that true? my friend was saying that she was #60 or 70 on waiting list when she signed up... and it was right after her bb was born..
sasayeo, yes, i think whether nanny or maid, u really have to depend on luck to get a good one.
My fren's son is with a nanny who looks after 5 kids..they're all placed in a play pen... and each is "released" to walk and play around at a specific time.. i didn't think it was good coz i thought it's almost like a zoo... but my fren still likes the option coz the nanny helps to look after overnight and she and her hubby can go out and pat-tor... so it's really depending on individual's choice..
as for maid, better if someone can be watching over her.. otherwise u have to be really really lucky to get a responsible one.

Actually i prefer to look after my own kids at night myself. Hmm dun really like the ideal of being a weekend mom. So everyday, i will ferry my #1 to and fro my mom's place everyday. Then weekends I would take care of #1 myself.
Xta, my hubby also same, cos he is in F&B line, so his offday also on weekday and weekends me alone. Thats y now i got a helper , so when #2 arrives, I wont be so tight up alone with 2 kids on weekends.
kidomum, oh dear, that sounds really bad! 5 kids in a playpen and only "release" out to walk and play at specific time?! Can i say that its inhuman?? how much she paid for the nanny?

@Sun_tan: ^5!
I think Sat i will home alone with bb... treat as bonding time lor
Sunday bring bb to church, many ppl help me to carry & feed.. haha! Relieve! Now i know why the mothers disappear happily when we are playing with the babies! My Parents will be there too to help.
I find that infant care / Nanny very costly! Don't think got $$$.. especially my Hub is the only child and its very stressful that we gotta feed his parents as well soon...

btw, recently i bought this thing called "belly belt" from spring maternity. it's something like the bra extension but for the pants..
so now i can still fit in all my previous working pants becoz this thing can hold the button together using an extension even though we can't button it on..
