Rostrum
Heheeehee..you are a very cute girl with jovial personality I can sense, I will hang around here so much that I believe soon, this place will be flooded with babies made by you girls, that is why I ask my hubby that time to help me think of a name that means a lot of baby, so a galore of baby dust for you girls. Rostrum, keep staying so positive like you are now, its proven scentifically that positive things tend to happen more to positive people, and I believe you can prove this theory for us.
For milk, I alternate between two brands: Meiji full cream and Farmhouse full cream, Meiji source milk from Thailand while Farmhouse from Australia. The reason why it might good to alternate is that diversification will reduce any risk of over exposure to any product from a particular source if its something you eat everyday. Meiji tastes creamy and "baby-like"
I have attached review of the products below. Don't worry if Meiji do not state the source on the bottle. Their fresh milk is from Thailand. Usually if its low fat milk, it will be clearly stated on the bottle or packaging, but for full cream, its not. How I check is go to the nutritional breakdown box. For full cream milk, the amount of fat is usually between 6 to 7 gram per serving but for low fat, its only about 2gram. The same goes for cheese. For cheese, I eat the Fairprice generic brand of hi-calcium cheese (full fat).
Since we are already drinking full cream milk, means its good to cut down on other non essential fats source such as when eating chicken, remember to remove skin and fats and the same goes for other meat. For home cooking, use canola oil for deep frying (or high heat cooking) and olive oil for light cooking. If you can Rostrum, eat more avocado, its good fats that is also good for fertility.

Yes, the Prof Wong I talked about is from NUH, I did an ivf cycle under him before and can see his great humanity underneath the stern look. After all my embryos capsized and had none for transfer and went back for review, he did not look down on me like I heard is the reaction from some gynaes after you failed once. He showed a soft side and encouraged me to try again and could tell he geninuely felt sorry and wanted to help. When I suspected I had UTI, he did not take it lightly like some gynaes would have (I heard from others experience) and immediately ask me to do urine tests. His knowledge in his field is one of the most profound in this country and many peers look up to him. I also respect him for giving up doing private full time at his mount e clinic (he still operates that on part-time I think) and went back to nuh and do research at the same time. One thing about him is that he is a law by law prof, everything must have proof and I suppose a bit of drawback is that if you suggest anything from your point of view which you think is very applicable in your case, he will still assess it from a theoretical point of view. Which I supposed is his guiding principle as a professor to prevent a doctor from getting too emotional that could affect diagonsis. Nevertheless, this style may not work for some which is a fair statement I must make.
Elle,
Please please continue to stay here and spread you potent dusts..heheeeee..Yes, thanks for advice Elle, I just told Meow that now health is No 1 and I will not work late like before. I stopped all exercises including yoga and will resume walking and prenatal yoga only after 1st tri.

Lyn, Gan and Miraclebaby,
If you are don't find it uncomfortable, when you lie down and sleep that time, as far as possible, avoid lying facing right as there is an important big blood vein that lies on the right side of the body that supplies blood to our lower body. Of course make yourself comfortable such that it can be done in moderation. But when you can sleep facing up or on the left.
No matter Dec or Jan, I hope you girls can deliver brave little tiger/girl tigers so that we can form a brave little tiger club
Gan and Miraclebaby,
Where got people on mc can still do work meh??!! Where is their common sense. Miraclebaby, if this continues, like Gan suggested, tell then you are really unwell and sign/make decisions. If you still continue to sign, they can spread rumors that if well enough to sign, why not well enough to work. You know what I mean. People at office sometimes like to make deductions and accusations when they seize the chance. Tell them you are so unwell that you cannot approve as you don't want chance of errors.
