Hi all, new here... seemed like everyone here is planning for a piggy baby.
indeed, it is now approaching May.. time does flies... however time seems to pass very slowly when you have a newborn baby and esp. during the confinement period.... I just dislike confinement..
jesmine

Hi Jesmine,
Pre natal check up is advisable. Even though some test may be check during pregnancy, precaution is always best.
I used to think it's a waste of money. But after wat my doc said, I think it's best to go for a blood test.
I'm not sure is it only for blood type A- or for all negative blood type, during pregnancy, we need to have a kind of injection, it's a must. I fall under such category.
It's good to know everything is fine.
All the best.

Hi piggy_mummy,
think u shld go see a doc straightaway..coz it show +ve..but it is not gd to have brownish discharge if u r preggy....n if the kit shows a +ve, show be rather accurate as when one i pregnant, the HCG level is higher n hence using a kit can detect if one is preggy..hope it helps...

hi,
c doc liao.ya, brownish discharge is abnormal. do blood test liao, doc said it might miscarriage. but he said it is normal, coz my menses only late for 5 days,infact, many couple even did not know they r miscarriage when they miss their menses few days, but the menses come again after a week. If this happen, it is not true that ur menses was late, more likely that u r pregnant, but may b the unhealthy fertilised egg rejected by ur body, so ur menses come and discharge it out.

Hi Piggy_mummy, are you doing fine? How is the blood test result?
When I was pregnant with my son, I remembered I had brown discharge just a few days before tested positive. My gynae says it's normal that there may be some brown discharge when the egg attached itself on the womb.
Take care!

Cheer up okay... don't think of it too much.. can try again...

I think I belong to those with irregular menses coz mine will always be delayed for few days at each cycle. Actually for my #1, I didn't really think too much when my menses was late for 2wks coz it happened to me before. I give myself one more week and then bought a test kit to test, then only I confirm preggie. By then I was coming to 8wks preggie liao..

Hi jas,
I also went for slimming treatment, in hope to get rid of the stubborn fats I accumulated over the last pregnancy. The therapist at the spa told me it is better to stop if I'm trying for number 2 because the electric pulses from the machine is not good for pregnant mum. Anyway, I have stopped the treatment and keep the remaining package for future use.
Now I just stick to my routine yoga, pilate and gym session.
For ttc, the best is to take folic acid with VitB12. Vit E is good anti-oxidant but I read that overdose will cause heart problem. Also need to drink plenty of water because health supplements tend to be heaty

Hung, it's normal. Cos folic acid is 'heaty' so some pple will have such reactions. what you can do is take on alternate days first. then drink more water. once you are used to it, then start taking everyday.
alternatively, eat more oranges. it is a natural source of folic acid
and you should start eating healthily. start exercising also

Hi Hung,
All health supplements are heaty. Actually the term 'heaty' doesn't exist in pharmacist's dictionary so they won't be able to advise you. If you can, take the tablets at the start of the day so that you have more chance to have plenty of water. Alternatively, if you are vege person, takes plenty of spinach and other leafy vege. They are good source of folic acid too. The name 'folic' comes from leaf.. so folic acid is leaf acid
Anyone plan to go for pre-pregnancy check up? As I'm planning for number 2, not sure if I should still make an appointment with my gynae for the check

I know pregnant mum sure cannot go slimming treatment but even when only trying also cannot? But now after so many sessions, my weight still didn't go down, been the same for a long long while.. so sian already. I hope to at least go down few more kilos before preggie.
hung
you mean slimming got higher chance to conceive? Sorry but I don't really understand what you mean.
I never heard of folic acid can cause dizzy spell. I didn't specify take folic acid tablets, I just eat kiwi fruits.

If just take the Very Fruity and Very Veggie supplement can?

Jas,
healthy pre-pregnancy weight will mean higher chances of a healthy baby plus easy pregnancy. However, as Hung said, extreme exercise and dieting will affect your ovulation.
If you want, take 3-6 months to focus on losing weight and not ttc first. in this 3-6 months, concentrate on changing your eating habits to healthy eating habits and start having an exercise regime.
Example is try to make it a habit to walk stairs instead of take the lift. make time to go exercise with hubby, jogging, cycling, etc etc.
It helps with couple bonding and helps both of you keep fit. The father's health status at the time of conception also has effect on the baby concieved.
Even if you do not lose much weight, your body is more fit for pregnancy. and when you have the stamina from the exercise, pregnancy will be a breeze

Hi Jas,
I have not seen the ingredient list for the 'very' range supplements so I can't tell whether that is enough to provide daily requirement of folic acid. The daily recommended intake, including from other food sources like spinach is 400mcg and 800mcg for preggie mums.
Went for my papsmear and pre pregnancy checkup yesterday. Gynae also done a v-scan for me and have gave me a clean bill of health for ttc
However, I did raise up my concern I'm still a little overweight. He said that I just need to watch out my diet and have regular exercise if I manage conceive anytime soon.
Anyone heard of brewer's diet??
