[grapa]

Hi Elm,

I just cut my hair last weekend..but I didn't know I was preggie.
Never hear before cannot cut hair tho

 

[Elm]

Thanks grapa that's good to know. I have been wanting to cut my hair but read a lot of things where people say cannot do this cannot do that.

 

[babydust2016]

Wasn't destined to be in Sep 2016 grp. Just seen Doctor. My gut feel is right, this pregnancy didn't make it. I miscarriage. Was given antibiotics to pop at home to prevent infection. Never experienced MS b4, now I know how painful it is - heart break.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Take care and do remember to continue to "tiao" your body

 

[ctan13]

Just curious, any idea what mummy can/should eat in order to have thick hair baby? Hehe I remember there is some food can led to but just can't confirm.

 

[babydust2016]

Hello all, I have also been tested positive recently, should be around 7 weeks too.
Is my first pregnancy so not sure about a lot of things. Can we go for haircut? CNY coming up so had wanted to cut hair but heard some people say cannot cut hair.

Elm ... my first pregnancy i cut & coloured my hair for CNY. But best to ask your gynae and go with your gut

Hi babydust2016,
Thanks for the assurance. Actually the cutting hair is more Chinese pantang than to do with gynae. Read those old wives tale say cannot cut hair but I have been wanting to cut before CNY haha

[karmene]

Hello all! I tested positive on 15th jan. Havent seen my gynae yet as she is only available in feb. I calculated my edd is 20th sept! nice to meet you!

 

[xxmlxx]

Hi all, I'm new here. I tested positive twice using the pregnancy kit. I'm afraid it's a "false alarm". Should I go and consult a doctor? I'm taking folic acid all along. Should I get some multi vitamins also?

Please add me: [email protected]

Thank you!!!!

 

[xxmlxx]

Lurvees, no I didn't change my skin care but I was careful to tell my beautician not to use anything on me that would be harmful like RF machine. Not sure what ingredients I should be careful.

Any of you going to color hair or do nails for CNY ?

Any of your tummy showing?

I going to do gel nails on 30th Jan. But I will make sure the UV machine is away from my stomach.

 

[shermainelty]

Yes my first. Feeling nervous. Hehe
In my first trimester and I'm so bloated. Sigh

You're in really good hands with Dr Goh. She delivered my number 1 and she is really reassuring and patient for 1st time moms ^_^ i feel you. I'm experiencing really bad nausea in 1st tri, but it'll be over real soon! Stay strong mummy!

What about deodorant spray? I am still using

 

[qinnieee]

What about deodorant spray? I am still using

I stopped using cos I read those anti perspirant spray has a chemical that is not suitable too

 

[chiching]

Hi, i'm not sure if i should be here. Hahaha. I tested positive yesterday

Facial is a no-no because of chemicals. Perfume should be fine.

 

[chiching]

I just tested positive yesterday. Can i be added in the FB group too? Thanks.

 

[coolfright]

No colour of hair or nails this year. Was told not to cos of the chemicals we inhale.

I'm in my 7 weeks and I'm showing. Feeling so bloated up. Are any of u the same? My Husband said I'm putting weight too fast. Sigh

Hey! Same for me too, Im about Wk8 and feeling very bloated, my tummy cant go back to its original state even when i suck in now. Lol. Anyways, I tried going for walks in the park and pool-walking/jogging abit and I feel less lethargic after that..

 

[grapa]

Hi! This is my second child and i will go ahead with my previous gynae. She is Dr Irene Chua from GMC. Do second time mums put on more weight or lesser weight during their second pregnancy? i have been feeling so bloated and gassy!

 

[Amy Jeane]

My husband forbid me from using perfume.
Even when he applies perfume, he will go out of the room to spray.

Wow...i dont have the energy to go for jog. Even after work, walk a little too much, i buay tahan liao.
I wanted to bake pineapple tarts...but im feeling so tired.

I have on and off nausea but I guess its not tat bad for me. The only thing is the bloatedness. I look so pregnant though im at 7 weeks.
And I get giddy spells quite frequent and I guess tiredness is every pregnant ladies's best pal now. Hehe

 

[Sheas84]

Amy Jeane - do you mind sharing Dr Goh's package? Was reading some good reviews about her

 

[grapa]

Weight wise so far nothing yet cos I am still going for my usual jogs etc. But still too early though..will balloon in second/third tri

 

[karmene]

can still jog huh? i have been jogging regularly before getting pregnant..

 

[grapa]

I think OK. I did it in my previous pregnancy as well. As long as its something you are used to doing, can continue but maybe reduce intensity if you are not sure.
I see preggie ladies lifting weight before at the gym but she was quite hard core before preggie type

I havent sign package yet. Her package starts from week 12. So I will probably check with her next Monday & let you know.

I checked with Dr Goh's recep, packages are from 14 weeks onwards at S$1100 for 10 visits.

 

[shermainelty]

I'd like to start pre natal yoga practice asap cause it really built up my strength and stamina for my #1. Any mummies have recommendation for a good place to do prenatal yoga? Tks a million !

 

[Lurvees]

Better avoid using perfume during the first 3 months. Read it somewhere that it might cause birth defects

 

[Lurvees]

What about deodorant spray? I am still using

Not sure about deodorant. But i stopped using anti perspirant as they contain aluminium which are harmful to the baby growth

 

[Amy Jeane]

Thanks Shermaine. Only week 14 ah. I tot week 12 starts.
