Hi Amy, i think clarins and bio oil is good. However bio oil can only use after 3 months.

THY and GBOB: Me too. Very thirsty. Duno is it because of the hot weather or what. My symptoms also come and go.


But i do get a little paranoid cos my previous mc case, initially i have the symptoms, then it stop. And its all because the pregnancy did not follow through.

But then, there are always some very fortunate mummies who have no morning sickness at all.

 

[starry1803]

hopeful_mum: Dont worry too much, everything will be alright. My sister had bleeding all the way until her fifth month. And even dilated when she is in her forth month.Doctor say dont give too high hope. But now, she had just given birth two months ago. Baby girl is strong and healthy. There is always miracle!!!

Dont walk too much.Try to bed rest

GBOB,

Apple & Jos Jos,

[starry1803]

Ivy: Jia you. Its a joy to be blessed with children. My no 1 is 16months now. How about you?

 

[starry1803]

Mummies, i having bad outbreak now

just like my no 1. Any one of you have such experience? What products did you used?

 

[ivy_koh]

Hi Shan,

thanks for encouraging me, my #1 is 26 months now and i am a FTWM.
when i had my #1 my outbreak was all on my back it was so scary n painful i tolerated until i gave birth then went for facial to extract all out

 

[mickeygal23]

GBOG,
yeah I almost want to park myself in e toilet.

Amy,

I used palmer's stretch mark cream during my #1, but I still have abit at e side. but at least it's not dry and it wouldnt cause too much itchness. so it's better to apply.

Thanks mummies, I jus have to continue drinking loads of water. ;p

Congrats to mummies who tested positive!

hi ladies, i just went to see my gynae yesterday and my add is on the 8jan. saw baby heartbeat and gynae on the speaker to allow hubby and me to hear the sound of the heartbeat too!
i am on my 7weeks.

she gave me maxalon to control my horrible morning sickness and so far it works pretty well. still nausea and vomitting but less than 12 times yesterday.

ivy koh /shan: i had a terrible breakout on my back with my #1, my mom bought this cooling powder from one of the shops that selling indonesian jamu and stuffs. it works well and dries up the break out. it feels much better after that. maybe u can try them?

amy : i use clarins oil. i can't stand palmers smell during pregnancy so i use clarins.

 

[ivy_koh]

wreen,

i hope i wont hv outbreak on my back again so scary and painful

it seems like alot of mummies with #2 here hehe...

[hopeful_mum]

Jos jos and Shan: thanks for the encouragement. I'm feeling very frustrated today. Good news was my bleeding and spotting stops after I inserted the utrogestan back into my vaginal.

Bad news: took blood test today my hcg level didn't double. Now dr say could be ectopic. But we saw a sac for the past 2 scans, now he tells me maybe those are not the sac. He wasn't confident!

Then I asked for another test since it didint double, he says dont need. Quite obvious already. But he cannot tell me I'm miscarrying. He says "oh let's give it another week. Come back next week to scan. By then shd see something. But not optimistic at all". I asked if I can go this sat, he says no too soon.

By right I shd be at least 5w6d or 6w2d by this sat.

And he was the one who told me on 25th that my 25th test may be a bit higher since I had hcg (pregnyl) shots on 18 and 21 may.

Now he is so confident something is wrong.
This is my so-called 2nd opinion dr. Cox the first one didn't do tests for me after my previous 2 losses.

My hubby is overseas now. Any ladies wanna give me some advice on what I shd do?? Dr told me to continue with progestrone. I feel like going back to my old dr cox I prefer him. But don't know how to tell him I already seeing another one. Lol

 

[kwxy]

Hopeful_mum > this happened to me before. HCG level MUST double within X hours. If it didn't means it not growing. Even it's growing, it's slow, not very good sign too.

What happened to me 2 years ago. My HCG level very low and didn't double. My sac also very small. I got to go mount A almost every 3 days to test my blood. Eventually I finally see bb heart beat, but heart beat stopped at 8 weeks. That eventually lead to MC.

I was very hopeful and praying for HCG level to go up, but only go up a little.

I hope your little fighter can pull thru this and you mustn't give up too!

For this pregnancy, this phobia came bk to me again! Though I hv a healthy and happy 16 months old boy, I can't help it but worry for this one too.

Lets jiayou together!

 

[hopeful_mum]

Thanks kwxy. So sad

I probably wait for my hubby to come back and face it together with me next week. My level was 209 1st test then 339 2nd test. Didn't double. Sigh 3rd mc

Angry cox I want to do one more on Friday dr don't let me do. Sigh.

But thanks for the advice

Wishing you all the best and safe pregnancy.

 

[gratitude]

Thanks for cream/oil recommendations, will go check them out and drink lots of fluids (as doc recommended)..

Shan: i have a little pain sometimes like stitch that type of pain.. but it goes away after a while.. should we be worried?

 

[jos_jos]

Oh, mine never test wat HCG level....
Hopeful mum, dun think so much, think u too stress. Relax and will be better

Me also hope to have one more... Dunno y I feel the more i want, the lesser chance I got... Last time mine 1st girl, also took me mths trying after we decided to have a baby then have. The last try is just relax and dun think of anything...

This time also force to try for months but end up mc....
Think my next try I need to let nature takes it's cause..

I am sure if we can get preggy, there is still a chance. Let's jia you!

 

[ppeanut]

My doc pre-empt me that I will experience stretching sensation and slight pain as the womb is growing.......

 

[hopeful_mum]

Thanks all for bearing with my long posts.

Praying for all of u to have a healthy and happy pregnancy. For those who may be having a miscarriage i pray for a miracle for us. For those who may have miscarried I pray for ur good health and that u will be able to conceive when u are ready

 

[ivy_koh]

Good Morning mummies!

I pray for all mummies and babies to be healthy and happy

 

[kwxy]

Good morning mummies!! I'm having some on and off cramps. Anyone having it? Having heartburn at night too

 

[ppl_pay]

jos, sorry to hear your loss. take good care of yourself.

hopeful_mum, which docs do u go? u wanna go find another doctor?

kwxy, i do have tummy pains at times, backpain also.

ppeanut, i feel my stomach sooooooo stretched.. even when i didn't eat alot..

 

[ivy_koh]

kwxy, im having backache recently...

 

[hopeful_mum]

Ppl I went to Gordon lim at gleneagles. The dr I usually visit is kw lee at glen-e. I went to seek 2nd opinion becox he didn't do any testing on my previous 2 losses.

But I actually more comfy with him. He removed my fibroid and was very good.

Any dr to recommend. But I scared see too many I more confused. Sigh

 

[starry1803]

Hopeful_mum: u can try my gynae. She is a female. Very detailed. She is call Dr Ang Huai Yen International Women's Clinic
Gleneagles Medical Centre, 6 Napier Road, Singapore 258499 #05-06. Her contact no is 6473 6626

 

[hopeful_mum]

Thanks Shan!! Expensive? That Gordon lim quite ex.

 

[ppl_pay]

hopeful_mum, i personally only met Dr Yu Su Ling from SGH once since its my first pregnancy. My impression of her was not bad.

My sis recommended me as she's very careful and detailed.

I've also read a review on her which i thought might be good to share with you.

* Please replace # with . as it was blocked.

This lady may not encounter the same problem as you do, but at least the doctor did help in her case.

Indeed, see more doctors may become more confused. But I'm not sure if waiting another week will do good.

Good luck to u and keep us posted.

 

[hopeful_mum]

Thanks ppl. I went to read. Seems like a nice gynae. Ya I don't know. Can't concentrate at work.

Ill keep u ladies posted. Thanks for helping out.
