if they are traditional, then i don't think they will allow you to leave the house for 1 month right? Since it's supposed to be confinement period :)

skipping baby fair this weekend cos don't dare to buy things yet since i'm not past my first trimester. planning to go to the Baby World suntec fair in Jan though!

Hi @lovelymoments , I have the same problem with dreams. My dreams are always so vivid and exciting and weird, but when I wake up I can't remember what happen anymore.. haha. But yes, everyday also tired. Sometimes I fall asleep at my work desk.. oops.

Hi @Feathery , if the medicine makes you feel dizzy and increases your heart rate don't take it! My mum-in-law recently had the same issue with her flu medicine so she went to see another GP, who gave her another type of med that didn't give her these side effects. Her blood pressure is already...

i also can't button my pants anymore... and this is my first pregnancy. heard that the bump shouldn't be so obvious for 1st pregnancy but i feel mine is quite big for 10weeks+? and people also starting to give me seats on the mrt... i gladly accept though. standing for more than 15-20 mins on...

oh i think i better clarify. i'm a subsidised patient because i got referral to SGH from polyclinic. everyone can do this and be a subsidised patient (govt subsidy). consultations, scans etc are cheaper. not sure about labour and delivery. will depend on class i think? the civil servant...

yes i'm planning to deliver at SGH. i'm under subsidy now (civil servant) so i don't know if i will be assigned a specific doctor or if i'll just be seeing the group doctors on duty. the clinic wrote Dr Tan Eng Loy on my progress card as dr-in-charge though, but i haven't met him yet. if i were...

you can try soy milk too! there are calcium fortified ones readily available :)

hey @Fae Hanez, after i did my first scan, i also had a 14mm cyst thing in the report. but the doc told me not to worry, it's common to have it. it's 'leftover' after the baby is conceived due to hormones and will go away by itself... don't think too much! i'm sure the gynae will explain to you...

congrats! i was so excited when i heard and saw baby's heartbeat at my first scan (8w5d) too... doc sent me for scan because i spotted two weeks before, but luckily baby is ok :) looking forward to my nxt appt on 8 dec, then i can see baby again :) will be doing the down syndrome scan then too.

hihi, i tested positive in early november and have been following the june thread. but after my first obgyn visit my EDD according to scan is 1 jul. EDD according to date is 26 Jun. so i'll be following both the june and july mummies threads.. this is my first pregnancy. i can't figure out how...

nope not yet. i think they encourage mummies to take the tour only after 20wks? i'm only 9w6d so still got a long time to go. this is my first baby so i don't know what to expect either...

i just started with SGH. got a referral there from polyclinic so it's cheaper. going for my second appointment there in 2 weeks' time :)

thanks for all the replies on confinement! think i will have to handle baby on my own too. will try to convince my mum to learn to cook some confinement dishes and maybe take turns with my MIL to help settle the meals during the week... i'm at 9w2d and my hips are starting to ache, where the...

what are your plans for confinement? my mum and MIL are both not able to help with my confinement full-time, and hubby isn't keen on hiring stay-in confinement lady. i'm not sure what other options we have though.

hi mummies, this is my first pregnancy and edd is end-june 2015. hope to learn all I can from the experienced mummies here!
