Morning everyone! I downloaded 4 apps on phone. Every morn will read. Hahaha! But sometimes font understand their measurement. Eg does the value given mean it is the length at start of of the week or average or end of the week. End of the day... as long as baby growing then ok la. Hahaha!

I am guessing these measurement are referring to start of week.
At 8w4d, my beanie was 2.1cm
At 10w3d, my beanie was 3.7cm
Thanks dolly! Good reference to share!!!

i know it is rather too early. but anyone knows what is the market rate for confinement ladies?
cos my mil is still working and my hubby was asking her about taking care of bb for us after i go back to work, she was telling him that she can only help after feb cos she wants to get her bonus before resign. and during confinement she will take a week of i guess to help me. but problem is the confinement is one mth right? if she only take leave for 1 week then what happened to the rest of the 3 weeks? as for my mother, i have yet to talk to her if she is able to help cos she might not be able to cope too… or can we do confinement on our own?

U might wanna book fast. Heard they are running out fast. I think it ranges from 2.4k onwards. Recently read that some charges 3.2k even. Think a lot of year end babies.
Might be better to have extra pair of hands to help. Having a CL would be best cos u can really rest. Even with your own mom, u can't expect her to do everything also. But some don't like a stranger in house so that is a diff story. Coping on your own sounds very siong

im counting down to ko ko ko....tomorrow i holiday already but i still no plans yet....

Hi all I am gg to leave this group liao. Just did a scan today and the fetus is dead.... Got to do D and C next week. Trying to take this as factually as possible. If the fetus were to survive it wld be abnormal and I know the right thing to do would be to let it go... Take care all of u and have a safe pregnancy!

Hi all sisters,
Sorry for not chatting much these few days due to the unhappy things that happened over the weekends.
Anyway I decided to go to a private gynae to do a scan today. I went to see Dr Lawrence Ang at Sembawang (Thomson Women's Clinic) today. He is my best buddy's gynae for both her children. Initially I booked the appointment on this coming Friday but I decided to just walk in today. The waiting hour was about an hour.
As it was my first consultation with Dr Ang, actually I had no intention to tell him I conceived by IVF since I thought maybe this scan would be just an one off thing at his clinic. He then started asking if I had done any scan before and I said yes at KKH. He asked which doctor. The moment I told I him is Dr Tan HH, he straight away asked me if it was by IVF. I said yes. Then he asked again which cycle of IVF. I told him it was my first fresh cycle. So he did a scan for me. To my surprise, as of today, baby is 11 weeks 2 days, measuring at 4.68 cm and now my EDD is brought forward to 17 Nov 2014. Just last week, on 22 Apr, when Dr Tan did the scan for me, baby was 9 weeks 2 days, measuring at 2.7 cm and my EDD was pushed backwards from 21 Nov to 23 Nov. In a week's time, baby has grown so much and advanced by 2 weeks. I have always thought that I am in my week 10. Since week 5, I have been taking weekly photos of my baby bump for my own archival.
I also told Dr Ang that I had bleeding in the earlier stage of the pregnancy and was admitted to hospital and when he saw baby, he said baby is a very strong baby. We could see baby's movement and his/her legs were kicking and kicking. We also heard baby's heartbeat. Then Dr Ang was very cute and said okay you can announce to the whole world that you're pregnant now because before the scan, he said don't announce the pregnancy until after 3 months.
I'm very happy that after all the unhappy things that happened, baby is fine and growing very well.

Dolly, you don't stress too much. I Find that we preggy lady the emotion really very emo and sensitive. I think many of us experience it. So don't take it too hard and stress. Just think back last time we will not think or feel this way so much and now is just our sensitive emotion. Once stress will Cramp.. so Stay happy. . Just to let you know we are here to share your thoughts. Cool cool.. It is our hormone La making us feeling so much. Tell yourself that and cool cool. Beanie don't want to see mummy unhappy. So stay positive for Beanie . I also will think elsewhere sometime but I just put that aside and stay cool. Talk here will feel better.
. I also will think elsewhere sometime but I just put that aside and stay cool. Talk here will feel better.See doctor if itch persists. Apply body lotion. I had hives & ended going to kkh @ 2am+. It spread like wild fire, entire body & I cldn't stop scratching. Avoid seafood such as prawns & sotong. Monitor.

Faithfullyyours u make me feel like wanting to visit Dr Lawrence ang too just to get his confirmation on "u can now announce yr pregnancy" what reassurance is that and how important it is you know. But so far nobody has tell me this so far. Till my next scan at adc next wed seems a long way. Initially was tue then postpone to wed. wonder how is beanies doing now.
Dolly it happen to me before, the mum raise voice 1st and make me talk back rudely in end she come and scold me say I anyhow so rude talk to her. It's a very sad and boring scenario for me because I love my mum and I doesn't like her angry but yet I am also a quick temper "pampered" daughter of hers. The whole day just sucks even though I insist not to talk to her after the incident. You know the in out of the house yet the faces super black. Just damn demoralising. But don't worry when it's over you two will get better. Maybe later she will call you again and talk nicely to u. My body also In itchy condition. Now Improve slightly better after applying body lotion but think it's still in recovery stage as I think I scratch myself too hard now alot of scratch finger nails mark on my back waist there.

I encountered that too a few days ago. It is because they upgrade the apps. Just uninstall and reinstall again. .

Thanks for all the encouraging words. I didn't feel much when doc explained to me but I really cried when talking to my friends. My hubby asked is it because I ate too little, and my mom asked is it work stress. From doctor I really felt that it was a genetic abnormality but after listening to what my family members said I thought mb I was at fault too, smth didn't do right.... Haiz..
Hope to come back again.... Do take care and looking forward to when u all can hold ur precious one in ur arms!

Please don't blame yourself. Like what u said earlier, maybe it's good to let go if the bb is abnormal. No words can describe your feeling. All this while, I'm only a quiet reader in this gp. When I saw your post last nite, I feel really upset. U have to be strong ok. Life still need to go on no matter what. Hugz. Pls take care.
