[jun3]

hi juju,
have u delivered?

 

[blisstan]

juju, jo,
both of your special days are very near liao, waiting for your good news!
Juju, your EDD is tomorrow liao hor.

 

[dejected]

Hi ponytail,
congrats on your development of twins. When will the doc start measuring weight? I am currently in week 17+, twins too.. Last visit, cant see gender.. When did you see gender?

 

[klc]

Hi ladies
I'm in my 20th weeks carrying triplets. My current gynea is at Mt E. Plan to switch to NUH or KK to reduce the NICU cost of my babies later. Any good gynea to recommend? Yesterday went to see Prof Biswas at NUH. Not sure if I should pick him. Anyone heard of him?

 

[itjabi]

All: i lost of my twins on labour day as there was excessive bleeding and was rushed to hospital. discovered that 1 twin's heartbeat stopped. think this is the vanishing twin syndrome but mine had bleeding rather than being absorbed. Anyone here had this experience?
Although everyone is saying that nothing will happen to the other baby, i'm still worried till the next scan. bleeding has stopped and now back home.

 

[blisstan]

Hi itjabi,
have posted to you in this thread earlier and also in the other thread. Pls stay strong still, ok? It is inevitable for you to feel worried still. But you must believe that your bb will stay with you and grow well. Meanwhile, I think you have to rest well, eat well and think positively.

 

[linaang]

hi ponytail,
just rest at home, since doctor given the HL. Your boss must approve of it.

hi ltjabi,
stay positive for the other twin. Do take care.

 

[jun3]

hi bliss,

I'm scare i was overdue liaooo.. hahaha
cos till now have not have any labor symptoms.. hahaha

 

[bb_hopeful]

jo / bliss,
i'm still here, hanging around... haha!

itjabi,
stay happy for the other bb! must be positive!

jo,
why overdue? tmr i only full-term leh!

 

[1sttime_ivf]

juju - wait to hear your good news

jo - wah no symptoms. thats good

itjabi - stay positive for your baby. bleeding stpop so shld be ok.

lina - yep i told my boss today and also volunteer to come in to clear stuff. scared if i totally disappear my coll will backstab me. sian... she 40 plus and not married, v unsupporive one

 

[bb_hopeful]

ponytail,
thanks.
yes, bbs more important than work. dun care so much abt work. if can, maybe work a bit from home. but rest is MORE IMPORTANT!!!

 

[itjabi]

thank u all for your kind words..

josephine: Did u have bleeding when u lost one of your twins? what were the precautions u took after the the loss?

i was given an extra vitamin tablet to be taken every morning. did doctor say there would be any risk to the other twin??

 

[itjabi]

how do u guys measure the weeks u are at?...as in if I'm 7weeks and 5 days, do i refer to 7 weeks or 8 weeks in the book for baby's development?

 

[bb_hopeful]

itjabi,
u can either use 7 wks or 8th wk
hope u r feeling better. was ur progesterone intake increased?

 

[itjabi]

juju: nope, progesterone intake was not increased...i was just given additional vitamins...maybe i'll call them and ask if i need to increase the intake..

 

[jun3]

hi juju,ponytail,bliss
i scare baby oversize, scare if full term the bb can pang sai inside then it will be more dangerous, and got many thing to scare... (maybe nervous and anxious also) hahaha
want to meet dr loh asap leh... hahahaha


hi ltjabi,
yup i got bleeding on and off. but the other twins never expell out (the other still inside).
when u lost your other twins?
i lost my other twins on 10wks pregnancy... ^_^

 

[blisstan]

Jo,
how come your bb might be oversize? What's his weight so far?
Haha, bb poo inside? Dont worry, bb does poo inside, but wont be dangerous like you thought.

jo, juju,
do you have sleepless night more often lately? I have been getting difficulty to sleep in the nights lately, whole body just not feeling good, my hips crampy, thighs aching, legs v restless, then tummy pain on and off, gastric pain too... haiz... when bb moves more, the discomforts worsen. Do you two experience this too? What do you do to help to ease?

 

[bb_hopeful]

itjabi,
ya, jus call & ask. if they say dun nid, then jus rest well & wait for the scan.

jo,
bb now how heavy? when is ur edd huh?
dun think so much la.
later i'm seeing dr loh, thinking of persuading him dun induce this wkend. hahaha!

bliss,
sometimes. but dunno why last nite slept very well. dun remember waking up to go loo. maybe too tired cos monday worked till very late. this morning woke up wif calves cramps. usu no matter how i sleep this few wkends, i get tummy, pelvic & inner thigh cramps & achiness. so got used to it liao. jus scream more to wake hubby up lor.

 

[bb_hopeful]

jo / bliss,
bb poo is ok, unless it's the last stage meconium which is not ok. but then, it will only happen when bb is very stressed. so, dun worry so much la

 

[linaang]

hi jo and juju,
hope both of you have a smooth delivery. Enjoy baby in your arms moment.

 

[jun3]

Hi ladies,
Went for my first scan yesterday. Had to do a vaginal one as they could not see too clearly. Found out that I'm having twins. Very excited and scared at the same time.
I want to change from Clinic D to TPS, how do I do it?

 

[blisstan]

hi ladies,
received juju's sms at 2am, she has delivered to her little princess at ard 11pm last night, without epidural and epiosiotomy, but with some stitches. Congrats to juju and welcome her little princess!

Very happy for Juju, brave mummy!
I may visit her at KKH later.

 

[blisstan]

Sophia,
congrats on having twins!

You just inform your doc that u want to see him in TPS, his asisstant and the counter person will make arrangement for you.

 

[dejected]

Congrats Sophia!! Take care!!
