I see.. CVS is invasive, so I'm a bit jittery

Hi ethel,
usually if you are below 35 and non family history of certain illness, gynae will do Oscar.
Oh, sorry, just saw you are above 35. In that case, your gynae will recommend.

I'm 35 did nipt @ 14 weeks @ nuh
Hi, I am above 35 too and first time mom, Did iGene at NUH at 10w5d, result came out all good. I think you should do any of these NIPT tests- iGene, harmony or panorama before heading to CVS.
I just did my harmony on Monday and scan and routine blood test. Drawn 5 tubes of blood plus or eclampsia. Expensive 1k. 3rd child.

Hi I'm a new mummy.. And my EDD is on 9 Oct. So far I have yet to experience any morning sickness and blessed that everything is as norm so far, except that I have bad lactose intolerance after the pregnancy which I have to refrain from all milk products. Btw, I just engage a confinement service from PEM, as it was recommended by a friend. But I don't like the way they trying to push their sales. The salesperson came over my place to explain the package. After tt he insist that I have to include their Chinese herb package as it is supposed to incorporate to my confinement meal. I did some research and Eu Yen San and Hock Wah also provide these 28 days confinement herbs at ard $260+ which is $100 over cheaper. I told them i don't want to sign that herb package but the sales insist i can ask for refund as long i decided to cancel before my confinement start. So I have no choice and will have to call to cancel at later date.

Hi I am seeing doc at Nuh and they do igene, it cost me around 800+. Panorama is expensive around 1800+. Igene is quite comprehensive and does all other tests except triplody in panorama.

Hi ladies
I'm new to the forum and expecting my first baby on 26 Oct.
Had two spotting episodes in week 7 so my gynae put me on progesterone jabs once a week + duphaston to stabilize the pregnancy.
I did my panorama when I was in my 10th week at a pte clinic at Mt Alv, $1550 excl gst. Was given the option of either Oscar (ard $600) or panorama but decided to go for the latter which is more comprehensive and higher accuracy for peace of mind. Eagerly awaiting to receive the results at the end of the week.

Ok noted tks
Anyone (still) feeling exhausted? How to cope with it when you have to work? I've been on leave for 3 weeks now and have to go back to office next week but just the thought of going back is causing me stress! As much as I would like to extend my leave (I'm currently in my 11th week preg), I know my boss probably won't be too happy about it.
Btw, is the FB page active? I've requested to join but so far not been added. Anyone can add me in as member?

Hi Oct mummies,
I am a 1st timer, currently in my 15th week, EDD estimated in 1st Oct (or 30th Sept +-). Guess I straddle between Sep/Oct
I basically went through my first 12 weeks without knowing (probably due to no symptoms and thinking missing periods was due to work stress). That said, had a couple of drinks, strict gym training and muay thai all the way till finding out. Good thing all's fine...Just gotta watch what I put in my mouth going forward.
I'm now with Dr Wendy Teo at Mt E Novena. Did my panorama right from first visit and got the call from clinic reporting low risks and it's a baby girl!
Love to have you ladies as companions in this journey and also to share experiences & tips.
@elyn82, I will text u. Please add me.

Hi jmbaby2017, nice to meet you here! I am glad to find Dr Wendy Teo, very nice lady and she helped to sooth my unprepared nerves during the first scan And took time to explain all body parts of the tiny "peanut"...We even managed to catch a glimpse of an outstretched arm...lol~
I got my Panorama results in approximately 12 days, nurse called to tell me the news. But will have to wait till my next appt with Dr Teo to hear a clearer explanation on the results. For now, low risks and baby girl is good enough for me. Have patience babe, and take good care of yourself!

Hi sadger, I did my usual biz travel during my first tri And that was very continuous countries-hopping over two weeks each month. But that said, it was because I wasn't aware. Maybe it is best to check with your gynae, have clearance that you and your little pea are in good condition for any travel first. And if you do fly, wear compression socks, drink more water and get up to walk more often (just be careful)
Hi Ethel, I don't think we can use Medisave for this test. Further diagnostic test like the amniotic is required only if the risk from panorama is high.
But do rem to keep your receipts for prenatal claims (e.g.consultations and ultrasound) - http://www.heybaby.sg/havingchildren/maternity_package.html
Hi I still have not been added to any chat group. Add me please : [email protected]
And by the way, can advise when should I start looking for confinement lady and infant care/baby sitter?
I prefer to have a baby sitter for the first year but it seem hard to find one nowadays. Anyone has any recommendation. I stay in Bukit Batok area

Heyo, the min lease term in singapore is actually 6 months by law, if u need to rent for 2 months you may want to consider service apartment.

I'm going 12 weeks in a couple of days, some days I'm ok, but some days is a nightmare for me. The whole of yesterday whatever I tried to eat my body seems like wanting to reject the food, the worst is, i didn't manage to vomit so they whole day was gorgy and unwell.
I guess it's common, we just need to hang in there.
Hi Sadger, you should start looking for a confinement lady now. All the "recommended/famous" nannies would have been booked by now. When i was 2 months preg, i started looking and found most of the recommended nannies have been booked till Nov! Unless you don't have any preference, else start searching~ good luck!
I'm also going 12th week and since my last post, I have requested to go on 2 months no pay leave so i can rest at home. I have Thalassemia and will often have dizzy spells when i stand or walk. This pregnancy is tough but yes, i just have to hang in there. We all just have to hang in there. About 6 more months to go!
