Hi Ladies,
I put on ard 2 kg after pregnancy, now most clothes cannot fit me anymore ...this few weeks have been wearing the few pcs of clothes that still can fit ... guess its time for me to change my wardrobe liao ....
Hi twinkle-starry and Ivy,
Actually I feel better after telling my friends n collegues ... now they will avoid move things infront of me ... will only shift things when I not around or will ask me to "siam" ... my collegues even shift all the beverages from the top cabinet to lower cabinet so I wont have to lift my hands or tip toe (I am quite petite) to get things ... everyone is asking me to be careful .... recently having bad MS .... so tends to come to work late also ... but boss is very understanding ...

Ivy,
no leh u cannot beat it . I am so fat u know. Ever since i got this prolactin hormone disorder , i put on so many weight. I think the highest record of all my years.
Some ple dun put on so much weight bcos they are already big, Let's hope we can be like that.
funny leh i put on 0.02kg for the past 3 weeks but my tummy is 1 inch thicker

Hi twinkle,
Today is the end of 8th week, so tomorrow should be start of wk9 ...
I am quite petite .... so worry that the extra kgs will make me look like a walking potato ....
I think the increase in weight depends on individual ... heard that some MTBs actually lost weight in the 1st Trimester due to MS ....

Hi twinkle
Oh, I drink lots of water. A few flasks a day hehe
Hi Ivy
I can't stand milk too...that's why I have started eating cheese wholemeal sandwiches for breakfast for calcium intake.
Hi taurus
Other than our parents, I've only told a few close friends and my boss but not my colleagues yet.

Hi Taurus,
Sometimes it really can't be helped. Like last nite, i was having my dinner until halfway i have this nauseous feeling. So i have to stop eating. But luckily i always manage to escape vomiting everything out. I need to lie down or sit still for perhaps couple of minutes then becomes ok.
I am glad i had a good lunch just now
I dunno why no sour food. Hey, i also have craving for spicy and sour food. Especially.. MEE SIAM!!!
Oh yah, my mum also mention no bird nest as it can cause phlegm in child too. it's not really true eating bird nest makes the baby fairer. Drinking milk is still the most effective in this aspect
Hi Bookworm,
My mum say papaya cause child to look "yellowish" so she warn me not to eat lor. Anyway me no crave for payaya so its ok
I took one jab so far which was last week. Gynae said to stop the spotting. The hormone is Progesterone right? Have u been taking the pills? I took some when i first see the gynae. But he say i dun need it anymore so i stop taking it on the second visit.
I will only be having my first blood test next month on my 3rd visit. Keeping fingers crossed!
The gynae did say i look a bit pale. He say doesn't matter and wait for the blood test. In fact i am worried over everything everyday. What about u ladies?? It seems like i always have lots of things to worry over the pregnancy!!
Hi Ivy,
I heard pple say not to announce pregnancy till 3 mths later. Some didn't even tell their family! For me, my family knows about the news first-hand, and 2-3 of my close friends know about it. And now my students gradually know about it as they see my tummy and i have been wearing flats instead of heels haha! So the smart ones are already guessing away.
Now my HOD knows about it and 4 colleagues know about it. I have to be fair to my HOD as he needs to do planning for next year, so i need to inform him. No choice.
Hi to the rest of the ladies!
I have gained 1.6 kg so far and the gynae asked whether i have been eating mooncakes haha!
I find my skirts tight, so i have been wearing one piece dresses now. Luckily they are my love, so i dun mind at all. But the tummy does slowly slow now... might be a good thing hor?
So some ladies love nest in SK? Me too
I am at rivervale crescent

Hi Ivy and twinkle
Yes, the cheese wholemeal sandwich is yummy...actually i dun fancy cheesy stuff...but after trying it, it taste really good. U gals can consider melting the cheese on the wholemeal bread in the oven first...it tastes even better.
I bot the extra light cheese from kraft...only 40 calories per piece. Must eat for the sake of baby
Hi kk
Think i've chatted with you before in the Oct 03 brides thread in SB forum. I had a different nick then. Glad to see u here

Hi ladies
Nice to hear all your sharing....
Will try the melted cheese with the wholemeal bread......
Just to share my experience, I was very thin before I delivered my 1st child (this April). Lost weight in the 1st trimester.... However I gained ard 14kg during my full-term and now I still need to shed ard 9kg before returning to my pre-preg weight; can you imagine that?
Currently, I'm ard 5-6 wks preg and this time round, I dare not snack too much.... Weight gained during preg is not really impt, the impt thing is that the weight goes to the baby and not yourself. Though I gained 14kg, but my boy was born v small - only 2kg. My colleague on the other hand, only gained ard 8kg but her baby was born 3kg......
Btw, I stayed at SK too... Compassvale St. I'm seeing Dr Adrian from TMC. His charges is v reasonable. Think $450 for the whole package (include consultation, scanning, urine test, folic acid & some vit tablets) and there's no limit to the no. of times you visited him. He's v responsible n caring too.... Also, he's generous with MCs hee hee.... Last yr, think I've taken too many mc, that's why this yr, will try to reduce...

Hi Taurus,
Yah rite! I also think my next visit to the gynae which is a month away is a bit too long. But well, we got to trust our gynae rite? U know, sometimes i even wish i have such ultrascan machine at home such that i can do my own scanning and analysis everyday to see baby ok or not haha!
In fact i am far from a water tank before pregnancy. But in my 6th week or so, i realised i drank a lot of water, more than my normal consumption. I felt thirsty easily. But this week, i feel that my water consumption has dropped. i dun feel that thirsty anymore.
Hi Paradox,
What nick were u using in the oct03 brides thread? yah u are rite, i am Oct 03 bride
I have kept the same nick.
Hi bookworm,
I think the hormone is to support the growth of the baby, and most importantly it is in fact important to us ladies. We produce two types of hormones, oestrogen and progesterone. Males produce testoterone. We tend and need to produce more progesterone during pregnancy.
Hey, i threw all my biology knowledge into the drain liao. i studied before but forgot haha! No wonder i am now teaching physics which is nothing related to my pregnancy
Hi Twinkle Starry,
I can be your opposite at times. Crave for fried foods but i tried not to take too much as it is fattening. At times, i vomit at the sight of soupy foods as i find them too plain
And i realise now i have to drink soups which are really hot. Soups which have cooled down make me puke!
Hi Ladies,
Can i check what is this cheese wholemeal bread? I dun seem to catch what it is, based on what has been posted. Pai seh!

Taurus,
Actually i love cheese, thats why i am big frame..My mum gave me eat a lot of cheese when i am young. But i stop when i hit twenties cos vain and wan to slim down. Guess we have to ignore the fat content and look at the calcium benefit of cheese...

Hi Milo,
I saw very nice maternity wear at kiddy palace (compasspoint SK). They cost around $50+. Perhaps i feel that the designs are more appropriate for my work as i already wear such designs to work normally. The only difference is the tying of ribbon at the back haha!
Any ladies know where to get cheaper and good ones?

Hi Taurus,
Ok, now i know what is cheese wholemeal sandwich
Recently what we did was we use butter and spread tuna and then toast using oven toaster. Guess it is fattening but i take it as breakfast without feeling nauseous.
