Ladies - MS usually happen from week6 of pregnancy and there is different stages of MS so ladies for those who has not had the MS enjoy the moment as the moment MS strike you will not have the appetite/strength to do anything depending on the seriousness of your MS ....

Ya ms is due to the hcg hormones..
If yr mum has it.. V high chance u will also have ms when u preggy...
Yup its a happy problem.. Ms also show the baby is growing well as its giving out the hormones that make u have ms..
But no ms doesnt means the baby not growing well.. Its very individual...
Since u aldy tested positive on hpt.. U wont be as kancheong as me on wed when im waiting for my bt... Hee..
Rem to ask for yr hcg level later ok...
I believe u will need to go bk to clinic tml to get new med support..
I ask my clinic abt the utrogestan.. Dr prefers us to insert rather than orally.. Unless not convenient then take orally..
Cos i think the med can be delivered directly to our uterus by inserting...

briefing for ivf done, I made note in my file to start using June's menes. was told that whole procedure would be less then 2mths.
Group briefing with 5 other couples, flashed ppt & presented by female MO. then we have to sign the blue n white forms.
after briefing each couple wait outside for their turn or the individual briefing with the nurses where we are briefed on the details of the ivf n the breakdown of costing.
Dr Loh will be on leave 1st week June. the counselling by social worker have to call another dept to make appt (only avaliable weekdays) so we asked if it's complusory they stated no but encouraged to attend since it's complimentary to the ivf package.
decided not to go for the counselling since it means my dh got to take leave (he not much leave liao)...
so from now till June's af I will 'tiao' my body, want to ask dr Zou if can switch to once a week accupunture then nearer to June then start to intensive acc

brownie, nancy,
just now nurse told me, if very bad, wanna puke, dont force myself to eat.
can just drink milo. she says eat and drink as and when i can..no need to worry abt taking proper 3 meals if wanna puke.
nancy, i also had a pack of vegetarian bee hoon for lunch today...bt barely even finish 1/4 of it. then i drank a glass of juice and a bottle of chicken essence.
maybe u can try taking juices. i can still drink plain water, bt not as much as my normal intake..probably only 1/3 of it only.

Syrah, my doc is not Dr Tan, its Dr Chan. I check from KKH website that he is an Associate Consultant. I'll probably ask for Dr Loh or Dr Sadhana since they have 'magic hands'.
brownie,
If you r having MS, take small but more meals each day. Dont eat a full meal. Also, try not to take oily/ spicy food. Maybe eat more soupy stuff. Or if you find you can eat certain food better juz eat. I always snack in between meals.
Drink more water or juices to replenish d fluid loss. If it is really that bad, ask anti- nausea pills fr your gynea.

Brownie,
I hv been having bad MS since Week 6, only got better recently. I learnt from Singapoh and oso read from books that before u get up from bed every morning, eat one or two pcs of crackers and cont lying down for another 20 mins before u slowly get up. This mtd helped me initially but when the really bad MS kicks in, it didn't help me anymore.
Basically, like what Skies said, my diet consists of soup and porridge only, despite that, I only could eat 1/4 of what I usu eat during my normal meals. I cldnt drink plain water oso, only can take flavoured water like Ribena. Do not drink Ribena on an empty stomach though, cos I found myself vomitting badly if I do that. Avoid oily and spicy food as well as food that will produce alot of air in our body, esp food that contains coconut milk, like curry and laksa. It created havoc for me.
I realised that usu my vomitting is caused by air in my stomach and I cldnt get it out thru burping. Therefore, eat slowly to avoid swallowing alot of air.
Recently, I realised that cold drinks help to ease my nauseousness too, however, I will make sure I leave the cold drink from the fridge at room temp for a while first before drinking. I oso make myself honey drink wif lemon, really opens my appetite a little too.
Finally, I oso eat alot of fruit and veges as I cldnt eat meat now. Also, during this period of time, I avoided hawker centres etc, places where there's alot of smoke and smell. Eating at home is the best, although whenever my mum cooks, I will shut myself in my room cos the cooking smell makes me puke. I can't take any smell, didn't use medicated oil as the smell oso makes me uncomfortable. Basically, I lie down everyday as it will help ease the MS.
Hope this helps
