Hi ilovetulipe, What shower foam is that? I'm also very sensitive to smell. A lot of shower foam smell is not working for me

Hello papalee.
20weeks detailed scan is mainly to scan for any birth defects. It can spot DS but I'm not sure how detailed and definitive it can be compared to tests offered at earlier stage like OSCAR and Harmony, etc. Similarly, if there is DS symptoms detected then, you'll likely be offered invasive test to further confirm which is up to the parents to take it up.
Touch wood but it depends what's your plan B if a baby is tested positive. If your intention is to keep regardless, it really doesn't matter when the parents know. However if it's the other way, I'm sure knowing earlier makes a lot of difference.

Yes by 20weeks it will be too high risk to take actions if the baby is ds.
Usually between 12-15 weeks there's a "thickening" in the baby neck that can identify the "level" and " percentage" of ds.
That's where the ultra sound personnel will usually scan and measure them.
And the nose bridge fr signs of ds and lips too as indications and sign of cleft lips.

That's very good.
For me also subsiding and my appetite is definitely improving. But I'm still losing weight (I think because I'm suffering from insomnia now).
Bfp is making me more constipated and all those multivitamins can also contribute to it. Unfortunately, I never have the luxury to be able to go #2 on daily basis (super rare). Now I'm depending on fruit extract pills to help me along.
Yes, I experienced the same thing as you. 11 weeks. But mine is worse, as I've had running nose and fever. Currently, taking the anti-biotics that my GP has prescribed me which is safe for pregnancy.

anyone seeing Dr AL Lim from TMC? this is my #2, already very stress thinking of next year with a 2 years old toddler and a newborn. And the morning sickness make things worse.
hope to find some support here!!!
@BabyHorse i'm kinda stressed out too. Next year my #2 will be 1 year old and i'lll be with a newborn! And I get no help at nights gahhhhhh
I had but I try to take only if I really cannot hold it anymore as that pills do make us very drowsy . My gynae advise is to take at night to sleep better and cure insomnia too.

Totally understand . From one to two is really a different ball game.
I'll have a 9yrs old, a 6yrs old and a 3yrs old to handle next year plus a newborn and all
Of them are on different emotional , interest and " homework" level.
So my mind have to switch from
Primary 3 mode to newborn mode.
I am definitely going to drop the idea of total breastfeeding and mix my express bm and formula feed . Easier for both me and the father as we both can take turns .

I have a question. I was originally taking 5mg folic acid and nothing else. After yesterday's check, the doctor started prescibing prenatal multi vitamins and calcium pills. Pharmacists told me that I need not continue with my folic acid intake as the multivit would have traces of folic acid. I don't recall Doctor asking me to stop folic acid. What's your views?

My current multivit is coupled with separate folic acid pills but from next week onwards my gynae will be upgrading me to another multivit which he says I can then stop the folic since the latter has sufficient FA. I guess it depends how much mg of FA your multivit has.
If you're concerned, maybe can give your doc a call?

Durian season seems to be back for abit this December. I craved for it so much 2 nights ago and I had a blast savouring it. And I feel like 2nd round tonight. Worried about sugar level but since that's all I can think about now and i need to gain back some weight, I think just whack.
Anyone craving for durians?

PEM is one of the better ones but it also all boils down to the individual CL. Surely good to get a recommended one which I already have in mind. However I'm still unsure if I'm getting a CL or get own kins' help. KIV.
After couple of rounds of durians, I need to stop as starting to feel heaty as I've also been gobbling down packets of dried mango which is just as heaty. No more for now.
@verluv, Sprite very shiok right? Very beginning I was also craving for it (I was never really a soda person before). Now I just crave for nice hot tea.
2-3more weeks before I can welcome 2nd trime. Hope our MS symptoms will be toggled off by then.

I don't think there is an pre meet up arrangement. Call PEM, book a CL and the one assigned will turn up on that day you need her. Unless you already know who you want and specify her (and provided she is available). Otherwise it's totally random. But so far all my closed friends booked by recommendation so maybe I'm not totally correct
End first trime : some say 13weeks but I go by 14 weeks. I won't tell my family until I hit 14 (my past bfps never crossed more than 13 so it's just my personal benchmark).

Depending on CL, some would collect a small deposit beforehand. I met my previous one when she collected a $200 deposit from me.
For PEM, they would arrange to meet you at your house to collect deposit and run through their T&C with you after you have booked their service. They would try to sell your their herbs and massage package too.
Based on my experience, good to call early as CL get booked very early. In fact my preferred one is not available even I called her at week 6!

It seems they say 14 weeks then ms will disappear... crossing hand
Yecarg - Babycenter takes 2nd trimester to start from wk 13. It depends which source you look at, they all vary. For me, I like to look at the earliest one, because it lifts my spirits to think that this dreaded ms will soon be over, though it lasted till wk 23 for me when I had #1.
Can anyone share what the market rate for a CL is now? I had #2 six yrs ago, and it was only $1.8 k back then. Heard the rate has gone up a lot since then.

I also have similar problem and I asked my gynae, he said just drank when i wanted. BB inside needs more fluid. I know it's not easy to go toilet twice a night and then go back to sleep. I am super light sleeper.
Hi, himawari, I had bad food adversion which i can only eat veg, fruit and plain cracker for about a month. No meat!!!
I did notice my hair dropped more before my pregnancy but my hairs also growing. Checked with my gynae yesterday, he said as long as my hairs grow, should be fine. My hair loss is mostly likely becos i could not eat any meat and protein. Not sure for ur case but hope this helps.
I had more night sickness, don't really dare to take dinner these days. Some days feel so miserable just feel like crying all night long. Today my MS seems to start from now..
Same, my evening sickness is worse. Gynae said the word of morning sickness is wrong, evening sickness is more common and worse
