I tracked my conception date and cycles so I know when I conceived.
Yay! Now you can stop doubting and select a gynae for your visit
Which gynae(s) have you shortlisted?

Hello mommies, these few days I was feeling a little floaty in the morning and during meal times, I feel hungry but when I was eating something so happily. Suddenly I will feel like 'omg the gross feeling is starting' then I gotta stop eating cause suddenly the food is making a little sick in stomach.
It came so sudden and when I stop my intake, I will slowly recover. Day time I usually will be okay. When night time, I was feeling hungry and wanted to eat dinner. I will eat so little and usually light flavoured stuff like soup. Then I gotta stop eating even when I don't feel full but will feel gross if I continue eating.
Does any of you feel this way? Not sure why I'm feeling this way and i don't know what can I eat or what not to eat. After eating then I feel abit erxin like something greasy is stuck in stomach and cannot digest..

Since most of you are asking about what to eat and what not to eat during pregnancy, I am posting the following:
This list is given by my previous tcm Ban Choon Chan in Marine Parade.
Fruits that you are not allowed to take now:
- Star Fruit
- Pineapple
- Water Melon
- Mango
- Grass Jelly
- Strawberry
- Coconut Water
Don't take the following drinks now:
Iced lemon tea
Iced milk tea
Iced coffee
Ice cream (take only after 13 weeks)
Best is to take warm water for now
Soups that you are now allowed to take now:
Anything with the following:
- Dang Gui (can only take after giving birth)
- The black herbal chicken soup
- Ba gueh teh (especially those with Chinese herbal)
- Chicken cooked with Chinese herbs (yao cai chicken in Mandarin)
- Emperor Chicken (huang di chicken in Mandarin)
- Soup from halal chicken rice
- Duck Soup
- Fo tiao qiang (I think this is called the Eight Treasures in the Chinese restaurant)
- Pork trotter with vinegar
- Gao li shen (in Mandarin) (Only take after first trimester)
- Birds' nest (only take after first trimester)
- Cordycerps (only take after first trimester)
Any kind of soup with herbs is a no-no for no.
Also, liang cha and almond tea dessert is a no-no.
The following list is given by my gynae:
Foods that you do not take during the first trimester
- Papaya
- The big del monte banana, as too heaty
- Bean curd (?)
- Bean Sprouts (?)
- Black fungus
- Bitter gourd
He joked that the best foods to take during the whole pregnancy for sure (and will not cause any bleeding) is water and plain white rice, haha.
And you all can drink home made chicken essence soup (goggle the recipe from the Internet) daily for now; and until see baby's heartbeat, just need to drink every other day, or every 2 to 3 days.

Yeah outside sell those herbal soup has some herbs that pregger cannot anyhow drink. Parents and in law say soup from home is okay but don't anyhow buy soup from outside.
So many things to watch out for. I read before no hollandaise sauce too because of raw egg white some may use.
Bye bye sunny side up and poached egg~

Also, for now, no sashimi, sushi and raw fish etc.

Congrats and welcome! My gynae says around 6 weeks earliest if lucky. I went around 5 plus didn't see anything yet so was scheduled to go this coming Wednesday which will be week 7. So glad to be able to see him cause I'm having morning sickness and no appetite for any food.
Congrats to you also! oh, I suppose to see my gynae at week 6 but due to spotting went to see him early and also can't see. Thanks! Going to see my gynae next week.
Take care, as for me I had sore breasts and fatigue.

Thanks @adeqi . Actually I just did HSG 4 weeks ago, as I am trying to conceive for a while. Seeing my gynae at KK tomorrow for the scan results. probably can get a more reliable reply.
my MS was very bad ytd and today.. Cannot swallow the usual amount of food. Bloated tummy since I woke up..

Cannot swallow usual amount then cut down, I cannot even eat much haha! Don't force yourself and you'll feel better.
I had to explore to see what I can manage to keep it down and reduce nausea. Very scared of all the food except plain porridge and plain biscuit.

I don't have much symptoms unlike my first two pregnancies which made me vomited after every meal, so feeling quite worried.
Not that i miss the nausea though!!

every pregnancy is different
so don't worry.
I have friends who didn't have MS first two pregnancies but sick throughout 3rd pregnancy
When i had my first, i can hear heartbeat on 5th week as the Gynae insert the stick into the vaginal.
Thanks! I'm 5 weeks now. Im also having extremely sore nipples and constantly thirsty.. Yet drink till super bloated. Lol I've almost forgotten how crappy pregnancy can be!!
I'm seeing gynae on Fri- around 6weeks. Decided to see him earlier as I've a prebooked vacation in Jan and hope to start hormone pills earlier to stabilize the fetus.
