Divein and ling, age is just a number! My mummy dearest was 42 when she gave birth to my brother.
Trinity, I was 19 when I had #1. After confinement, I was 1 size.more than my pre pregnancy. Only till 4-6 mths later did I return to pre pregnancy figure.
For brown discharge, it's good to call ur gynae to check with em. 2 nights ago I had brown discharge, and it persisted till the following day. Called up clinic and the nurse advised me to see doc immediately or monitor for another night. I chose to monitor for another night. Luckily it cleared off, the nurse said it could be due to implant.
Zenn and vanilla, got no idea what to eat either Co's no appetite. V tired wanna sleep. Hahah

I woke up to use the toilet and found that I'm having a lot of white creamy discharge. I'm abt 5 weeks now. Is anyone facing the same? Is it normal? I thought the mucus plus shld have already been formed?

Hi ocean blue,
I too woke up for toliet & trying hard to go bk to sleep.
I read somewhere tat having white discharge is normal coz we r having more preggy hormones. Im start wearing panty liner when d discharge is a lot.

Mummypooh, I've been getting only 5hrs of sleep every night. Either have to pee / poop or hungry. Tiring and the journey had only just begun. Next day at work I'm like a zombie.

you were all talking abt the bolster. Sounds interesting. I googled and found this comment in 1 of the forums.
"As a first time mum to a 4month old boy, I would just like to give my two cent worth of info- I had trouble sleeping when in my third trimester...toss and turn entire night and at some point did consider whether to buy a sleeping pillow for pregnant women but realized it is not really worth...if you want it to elevate your growing tummy, you can just try using a normal pillow (I used my big soft toy and place it under my tummy and between the legs). As for nursing pillow, I did not get one at all...I simply use a long and high enough pillow to place BB on to rest and as long as it is at a good height for BB to suckle the breast...think of it another way, you are not going to bring that huge nursing pillow out with you to public when you want to Breastfeed, right? Actually I hand sewn one pillow just long enough for BB to lie down and I bring it out for breastfeeding! Much cheaper too! Good luck to you ladies and congrats to your pregnancy!

ocean, white discharge is normal, so no worries: ) think I opened the flood gates to puking. Couldn't sleep properly all night and puked all the way. Just ate a sausage bun, hope can retain it.
vanilla, if I remember right, the u shape bolster costs 60 bucks.
Ggchua,that's nice of your mil, can save up alot. But I'm sure thr are stuffs like pillows, bolsters etc which u can buy: )

Shirelle, I don't know my EDD yet as I've not visited the OBGYN. But, using the online due date calculator, it may be 19/20 April. I can't remember.
Yesterday, I mentioned that I'm eating a lot as hungry easily. Today, I'm not eating. I've not had a bite since 6.30am. Inside feel weird. It's like hungry yet not hungry. Dont feel like eating.
ggchua, I have 1 pimple but I'm not sure if it's caused by hormones or my lack of rest.

Good morning MTB. Am feeling hungry and nausea. Very complicated feeling. Eat bit by bit loh. How to get the EDD? I base on fertility friend calculator, 6 Apr. my gynae nv said when EDD.
Tmr is my scan. I hope I can see the little bean growing well. Is a week after I know my thyroid is haywired. So looking forward & worried.

<font color="aa00aa">MORNING LADIES!
Haha, for the pregnancy bolster thing, I didn't buy it previously as I think isn't necessary. Now is more of wanting to pamper myself.
My EDD should be 2 Apr.
All I can afford for breakfast is milo... Has been like this for days.
ggchua: actually for me, my hair texture became much much better when i'm preggie! maybe it will be better in the weeks/months to come!</font>

My Edd should be 2Apr too! I've visited Dr Adrian Woodworth from TMC once. But I feel that he's consultation is too brief, it only lasted less than 5mins including the scan. And I think ultimately I will choose mount A to deliver cos there's really a lot of negative comment towards TMC.

My no.1
Hi all
Been following and reading this thread, so fast and cant catch up as need to work in day time.
My first gynae visit on 31th this month, using online calculator, should be 5w+. Nausea not kicking in yet, not so looking fwd but good to have also. When I had my #1, I describe it as *miserable* period.
This is my #2, #1 turning 2 in Dec. BF #1 till she is 14months old.
Just to share some experience
Pregnancy pillow, not that necessary after all, you just need to place a pillow below your tummy, more needed from end 2nd Trimester till birth
BF pillow,
I though it's good, but actually not necessary for me. Reason being - MESSY. My supply was good and when I BF one side, the other side started to leak or spray. I have to press, clean, whole baby, make sure the pillow in place..Can imagine how busy and messy it can be. So I give up. Also when baby hungry, they cant wait, they cry. It's too slow for me to put on the nursing pillow, then carry her, then feed. By then whole family already wokr up. I BF using dog style. lying down on bed, I can sleep while BF at night (haha).
Engorgement
Had that badly. You need to fully relax to clear it. I tried to listen song and sing together, it clear within 6 minutes! I was trying to pump for almost an hour. Second time, I tried to pump 3 hours, cant clear. Pain like HELL! I went to facebooking, it cleared within 10 minutes. Relax is the medicine to cure engorgement.
Massage
No massage for first month. Pls look for those specialist if you need massage from 2nd trimester onwards.
Hair drop
In 2nd trimester, your hair is the most beautiful period, no drop, smooth like angel! After birth is the worst period. Drop till I scared will bold
Outbreak
Heard if you are carrying baby boy, will have it.
Soya Bean
Please do not over drink, especially if you are carrying a boy. It contain some *feminie* stuffs.
Green bean soup or black sesame
Can drink in 2nd trimester, bbay will have blackie hairs (I tried that, my girl has many hair and very black when born)
Last but not least, Congrats to all mummies! Let's get through this period together by sharing pain and joy for sure!
