@fglim_carissa when i go for 1st appt, no question asked why make appt.
I just make appt then when see him then i told him that i tested + on the kit.
He will ask LMP and do a scan to find & confirm.
 
Tinklestars,
I'm also taking utrogestan.

Fglim Carissa,
Last wk when I walked into 24hr clinic, to be honest, there wasn't much they could do for me besides scan and check me, but at 5wks, only saw sac, couldn't see heartbeat. So not much help at all except to just wait till this wk then I went to my Gynae. They did examine me, but spotting was little, so they didn't see a need to jab me or to take hcg blood levels. However, for peace of mind, it may help to just walk in and check. Esp if got cramps and heavy bleeding.
 
@saraii amazing to hear the tiny heart work very hard?
Congrats but still becareful coz at 1st tri.
Regarding Oscar, for #1 i did not do coz gynae say no necessary since no family history and also consider low risk.
For this time round, i will wait what he advise bah.
If you are in high risk you may skip oscar do the Harmony or panorama or CV test. These cost like $1.5k +- bah.
Coz these are the follow up test if oscar result is bad. Oscar cost abt $3-400
 
Ouliou, sorry to hear abt your loss. Pls take care. Do go for tcm to build up your body n prepare for your nxt try. All the best
 
Ladies, do u think it is necessary to take duphaston pills if everything is fine? My gynae wanted to prescribe me but i told him it made me very unwell when i took it for my #1. Then he did not prescribe. Should i take it?
 
Duphaston pills are sorta like 安胎药。
Normally the gynae will prescribe if you encounter previous miscarriages, or have spotting problems.
I start taking duphaston for my 2nd pregnancy and current one, although everything is alright.
I feel "safe" taking the tablets.
 
Yes both are 安胎药
My friend who has no issue doesnot prescribed only those with bleeding issues.
Taking this medicine really make me drowsy and nausea.
If you no issue and gynae want to give for safety can take before sleep.
What is ur dosage like @saraiii?
 
i did Oscar with #1 too. No heard of Harmony test wor
Only remember i did 3 detail scan for my #1. The gynae scare my baby too big. went at 18 weeks, than 20+ weeks than 30+ weeks again.

Want to faint already, whole day just keep thinking of eating and eating. Eat breakfast already, count down to 2 hours to take my sugar so that i can snack. Than wait for lunch and repeat again...
 
Thanks mummies for the advice. Will probaly drop by hospital to do check up to ease my mind.

By the way, i keep having tummy gas and burp from time to time, it's normal right?
 
Fglim, ya lots of gases and tummy feel bloated is fine. I will have it at some times of the day also. Sometimes feel hungry suddenly then again feel unwell.
For mummies with kids, are you still carrying them? My friend advised me not too. But my girl very sticky. Wanna act like a baby everyday. I think I pamper her alot la.
 
Jj

My dosage is 2 pills taken at night, 200mg per day. I was having stronger ms this time around even before taking it, so when I started it, I don't feel much difference. Still as naseau and gassy. With my number one, my Gynae never gave me duphaston or utrogestan. With the mc this April, I didn't even have spotting but he gave me duphaston with a lower dosage. Looking back, I realize perhaps he saw from scan that bb wasn't developing to estimated date size but didn't want to mention n alarm me. This time, he prescribe utrogestan for preventive measures.

Every pregnancy is so different. With my number one, I didn't have any ms at all. And it was such a smooth pregnancy. This one, I'm nauseous, waking up in the middle of the night, and constantly needing to Munch.

Nicokin19, I don't carry my gal or anything heavy at all now. With the spotting and all, I don't even go grocery shopping anymore on my own anymore.
 
I haven enjoy any privilege as a preggie till now. My friend actually advise not to carry heavy items cos she was spotting too. And she saw some early birth due to carrying older kid.
 
Hello everyone!

I've finally got a positive result after menses was late for 12 days.
Tested every few days and even went to do beta hcg blood test but even doc couldn't confirm if i'm preggy or not...
probably I've ovulated quite late.

This will be my #2, based on LMP edd should be 7th July.

Would you all be interested to setup a facebook group?
I always have a hard time catching up on msgs here hehe
 
I'm still carrying my girl, she's about 15-16kg now? I stop her from lying on top of me and she's quite sad about that, I think if I say I cannot carry her she will definitely throw tantrum and wail :(
 
Hello Mandy congrats! How many boxes of test kits did you use up?? Lol but I can understand totally, I wasted three boxes (previous months all tested negative, super sad) haha.

Oh I also found forums hard to catch up on, until I realised there's this app tapatalk. Maybe you can try it out :)
 
Thanks @yallo !
I didn't keep track how many kits I've used but this morn I used 3 diff kits to try to double cfm lol

u mean this app can access SMH forum too?
 
Personally, Im not ready for FB group. I scared jinx it.
My no 1 , i only silent reader till i pass my 28 wks.
Even though not superstitious or pantang. Too many bad incident around me.
 
Welcome and congrats Mandy!

I'm still carrying my boy and using carrier coz I'm sahm with no help. Sometimes need to carry him to market do some last min marketing. No choice have to carry but I ask him to walk as much as possible.. He's not keen lor... I'm ok with starting fb group if everyone else ok :)
 
Congrats mandy!!.. ya i been feeling so gasst tdy tat im been farting like a machine gun here hahahaha!!!.. sorry too much info lol... im ok with fb page too.. lol cos this smh app sumtimes the forum doesnt sent notifications lol
 
I try not to carry my #1 as he is ard 15+kg. He is stickier than b4, always wanting to be carried n sayang. My friend advised me not to carry him as her colleague gave birth @ 28weeks due to carrying her elder kid.

Im a sahm too, i avoid bringing him out on my own . He always wants to be carried after walking for a while.
 
I wld feel nauseous, bloated the whole day n no appetite after taking duphaston. I guess i will skip it otherwise i will have a harder time to keep up with my boy
 
Thanks for the warm welcome! :)
I've downloaded the smh app it sure seems much easier to read the thread.

Or maybe we can start the FB grp when we nearer to 2nd trimester in case some r not too comfy yet hehe.

I'll only be gg for my first appt only on 24th cos I wana make sure I will get to see something durian the scan.

I was so sad n worried when I got my blood test result last week. GP was telling me maybe I'm not preggy or it's a pseudo or ectopic pregnancy. Luckily I've finally got a positive result!!
 
Congrats Mandy!!

Shan8080, yallo,
I can understand the 2.5/3 stage, very sticky and whiney, not easy to juggle. Mine is 4plus now, so quite logical in her thinking already. She will say, must be careful not to sit on mummy's tummy coz got bb. This age is quite sweet, everyday she thinks of new names for the bb. She's been waiting for a sibling since she was 3, for her, she's really looking forward, so she kinda helps me out. I'm working only in the mornings now, after bb pops, likely to stop completely again for a while. I also took care of my number one on my own.

Jj,
Same like me, I also hesitate joining a fb page coz exiting last time was an emotional roller coaster. Perhaps we wait till 4 wks later after second appmt. By then we'll be very close to second tri and the scans.
 
mine also keep want to carry. I still carry him but my hubby will take over after a while. He tell my son....for the next 1 year, he is his buddy...stuck with him
 
I dare not formally announce to my ger abt her sibling yet. She has incident where she told pple we have new thing. Just in case she start telling cos now still very early stage. That day she was with me at scanning but she thought I was having stomach ache and dr is giving me injection (with the scanner?)
 
Hi Mummies!

I tested positive yesterday! Feels too real to be true ...(my current LO is only 9mths)

Anxious and excited =) I have not seen gynae yet, but I think I will belong to the July group. shld be 6 wks already...
 
Congrats mamypoko!

My tummy is quickly expanding. Probably coz its number two, I feel I look like second tri. N I'm constantly sucking something to rid the tongue taste and naseau. N this pregnancy, I think abt meat for most meals and can't take too much also. Other foods make me bloat.

Same!! It's the bloating I think! For my #1 I didn't show till late 5months. .. and I had zero ms or pregnancy symptom. Today I'm miserable.. keep gagging esp when I fed my son his dinner... there's a pot of leftover soup to be thrown away but I can't even go near it. .
