nctgrace,
like wat juju said... he can't make an appt thru email to see u... u just have to make an appt to see him thru the appt hotline... the other time i also made an earlier appt to see him due to ohss and just tell the nurse that u need to see him earlier as u are not feeling well and see if they can slot u in earlier.... if u go to pte gynaes also the same thing.. they'll ask u to make appt thru the receptionists...
i'm not saying that u must endure and try to be tough... if u know u need the rest all the more u need to go see him earlier... i'm also tahaning rite now as in my last trimester and counting down to the day when i can see my gynae again and ask him to if can give me hl till my delivery... since i'll be 36 wks by then

Soon-to-be, headcounts wise we r under by 3. Everyone is stretched. we hv shared resources. So, is not a matter of training someone.. fyi, I am an auditor..
Nctgrace, am not a high flyer. every one has a responsibility to fulfil. Over here, u wan to take leave or MC no one will stop u... Coz they believe that u r professional enough to manage ur time n work. So, on deadline dates, u just hand up,... How long u took, how u do, is not impt.

Dear Hazel, how not to be disappointed?!?!
Soon-to-be remedy:
1) Positive mindset...stop stressing your baby
2) A lot of laughter...so your baby will laugh with you and grow healthily
3) Eat well, sleep well...to have energy to laugh mah
4) Don't think of work after office hours, coz work is never ending...
5) A loving hubby ------ loving hubby-wife relationship
6) Eat whatever u can stomach now...eat well later for your baby
7) Talk and encourage baby to grow
Anyone want to add on to the list???
I remember my reading is 350+.....

hi ltjabi,
that's really tough on you. I am totally breastfeeding as well but during confinement month, i do not latch on, express milk and confinement lady will feed. She feed every 2 - 3 hours but bottle feed is not as tough. Baby drinks very fast whereas latch on will be much longer. How about you try to learn latch on lying down, so that you can sleep and baby can take time to feed.

Singapoh, my MIL said she hasn't take care of bb for more than 30 years liao....and she's quite scared...so after hearing her telling me these so often nowadays, i think safer to bring her along to these classes..but I wan my hubby to learn too leh..don't know can 3 person attend for certain lessons or not hor?
Singapoh, guess wat? When I asked my MIL whether she wan to come w me for the classes, now she said she has no problems bathing the baby, v easy one...*pengz*.......jus a bit worried that she's rusty liao..*sigh*....don't wan to say too much liao..
No place for a confinement lady, already don't know how to clr the storeroom for the maid liao.....
Aiya, I don't wan to worry myself over this for now..worse come to the worse, I will bring the baby and go back to my mum's place for that mth...at least my mum was caring for my 2 nephews when my SIL deliver...

Huh Hazel, how many weeks are you? Anyway, I think HCG level not accurate in telling singleton or twins one! (complaining complaining... Ha ha) I had high HCG level (>1200 ) but showed only singleton in my scan. So disappointing.
Nctgrace, prior to my scan, I also have tummyache. Now nauseousness & giddy. As I didn't have enuff sleep last night, thot of gng to GP for MC but eventually went to work. It was a wrong decision. Felt v nauseous & giddy but still tahan till end of day. Almost cried in morning too as I don't know how long this will last. A coll said maybe I lack food.. And reminds me to stay cheerful..

Hazel, I forgot to add on...ur emotions will affect ur baby and his/her personality...tt's wat a mummy fren told me...she said that when she was preggy w e 2nd one, she almost went into depression coz of family matters, and the 2nd one came out to be always worrying this and that.....but when she was preggy w 3rd one, she constantly reminded herself to stay cheerful for her baby, so the 3rd one was more confident and a happier boy than his kor kor...
This is something tat I remind myself and which is why I am constantly telling myself to be positive and happy for the baby...I think I have mentioned once, I was a constant worrier (don't know got such word or not) and v negative person, even my hubby said so. But when I started on the cycle, I told myself to be positive so it wld create a positive energy and environment for the cycle to be successful. And when I got preggy, I continued to maintain the same mentality (though got a bit worried when i got my oscar test, but only a few moments throughout the 3 weeks till I went for 2nd opinions). And same reason, I am doing this to create a positive energy and environment for the baby to develop and grow....Since Aug, my hubby can sense that I'm a happier and more positive person, and I can see that he's happy w my change...8)
Jus relax and enjoy the moments......

Nctgrace.. My ms is very severe that I can practically vomit from morning to nite or sleep. I can't even eat or drink at all n this last till I 5 -6 mths.. Very dehydrated that need drip n lost at least 5kgs.I practically just lie on bed no strength to do anythg..too weak.. My preg I din gain much wt less than 10kg. Antivomitting Med doesn't work for me so I just puke n puke even though no fd intake.
Soon-to-be... All the while I requested hl not mc cos dr loh got scared by my severe condition.. At first he said it like that lor to get preg for 1st tri for my 1st preg.. Now he keep asking me wan hl or not cos I almost faint at his clinic once...haa

despondent, twins will hv high HCG. But high HCG not equate twins. So, this is the first time I came across a sister with a HCG that ladies get for singleton but she has twins. So this show us that any thing is possible loh... I was very happy to hear her case coz it means there is always an exception.

Nctgrace, I hope that u r feeling better this morning...do ur boss and colleagues already know u r preggy? If yes, do u wan to try to ask for unpaid leave on ur own? If no, do u think it's okay to jus share the news with ur boss so that he/she can empathy w u and u probably can ask for the unpaid leave without having to see Dr Loh yet....?

Nctgrace, now is wed. Why not go see a GP n tell the doc u r unwell n ask for 2 to 3 days MC till fri?
Just say you r feeling giddy n very nausea n weak coz u hv been puking all day as u r pregnant. GP will give the MC one. Dun need MC given by gynae.
Ur boss asks just say the same thing also.

sunday night, go see another GP n take some MC for a few days next wk. That is how some pregnant ladies do if really unwell.
Is tough to work n pregnant at the same time.My colleagues from another team 14 wks pregnant. She will be into her 5 mths early march n she told me she still needs to travel to hk for work for 2 wks... I asked her to get a gynae letter n dun go... She said her gynae said can go... But doesn't doc know there is H1n1 in hk n early march is still cold n the virus is active? DidNt her boss understand that with a big tummy she has loads of heaving stuff to carry n overseas assignments r super stressful with late nights into wee hrs.
She told me, wat to do, coz we still wan to make a living n dun wan to our job. This is her 2nd child. Bb comes out everything is money.
