Blushwax & Scarlet Rose,
Should try the pre-natal yoga. suppose to help strengthen the pelvic floor for delivery. furthermore 1st pregnancies, more time to pamper yrselves. mummies like me n yasmin, with a young kid, have to consider abt babysitter arrangement la. i realise when a child comes along, its less of 'me' time n more of 'baby' time. but its a fulfilling sacrification.
alina,
i agree with yasmin, didnt go for the down syndrome test for both my pregnancies. i believe an offspring is always a special gift for us in a way. at abt 16 weeks, my gynae took blood samples for a few test including for HIV. Tat's the requirement if i'm not mistaken. then at abt 20 weeks, i have to go for more detailed scan where we can c close-up for baby's features n growth.
