Found some info on the web.

If an ultrasound is ordered by your clinician early in your pregnancy, you may be instructed to have a full bladder for the procedure. Air interferes with sound waves, so if your bladder is distended, the air-filled bowel is pushed out of the way by the bladder and an image of the uterus and embryo or fetus is obtained.
The radiologist or sonographer may elect to examine an early pregnancy by means of transvaginal ultrasound. This requires an empty urinary bladder. You should ask for specific instructions for this imaging study when you make your appointment.

Hi ladies, wow, suddenly soo many MTBs here..Welcome..
A little update. I've been gone for a while because MS has truly kicked in. Poor hubby had to mop up the floor cos I couldn't make it to the toilet..
I cannot smell the odour from food being cooked! OMG...that is the worse. I eat with a towel over my nose, because I can swallow the food but not smell it. Then half an hour later, the vomitting starts..
Anyone here experiencing the same thing? *sobs*
I know I might have missed out a few posts here and there...so if I've missed out a 'thank you' or a 'hello there too' or a question, please do let me know...
Have a smooth pregnancy everyone..

Diana, ms usually kicks in at 6wks but can differ between individuals. mine kicked in at 5wks. it first started with just nausea n lost of appetite n progresses to vomitting. Some lucky mummies don't even hv ms. Haven't seen syrah for the longest time already. Dunno how's she n her twinnies.
huiping, like ann, i found breaking up my single meal into 2 to 3 small ones helps. For me fruits n ribena helps too. Some swear by sour plums (pity it didn't work for me).
Hanis, yah...the smell of cooked food makes me gag too. Worse still lately, soaps, perfume n talcum powder oso makes me gag. Am at a loss as to wat to do too. I've already lost 2kgs in this 2wks already. Dunno wat my gynae will say abt that when she sees me next fri.

Diana, I think most gynaes will take beta hcg twice to chk if its doubling to ensure bb is healthy n during early pregnancy as they can't see ur bbs on u/s yet. usually when ur hcg reaches a level of 1000 to 1500 n above then can see sac. Hope u can see bb very very soon. must make sure DH accompanies u hor.

hi peachbb, i can see bb's heartbeat and my gynae let me hear it too. don't worry, u shld be able to see ur bb's heartbeat at ur next visit.
hi huiping, you can try drinking lemonade, ginger tea or sipping sweet carbonated drinks.
for me, i get heartburn and indigestion. my gynae said normally for 2nd pregnancy, MS will be worse. oh dear!
yesterday, i started to dislike the taste of my toothpaste...going to shop for another brand of toothpaste tomorrow.

Hi everyone!
Sorry for disappearing like that. I had to hide at my in law's place for the entire week as my blk doing painting works n I couldn't take the smell. Their place has no Internet so couldn't log on. Just got home not long ago.
So many new mummies-to-be! Hi hi n hope everyone's doing well.
Diane,
CONGRATS! Is today your 1st BT? Which day is it? Jia you Jia you!!! Bb dust to u. I'm sure your HCG will increase.
Update on myself.
I had to go another trip down A&E on sun as bleeding again. Took another jab. Still spotting on & off now. I've been on complete bedrest. MS kicked in. I can't stand cooking smell too esp GARLIC!!! Not eating much too. But luckily no merlion just nausea. I'm nervous for my 6 week scan next week.

Ashley/ jay mum,
So nice of your hb to go out n buy all these fd for u. I dun have much cravings for fd. But I find that if I don't eat something the MS gets worse. So have to force myself to eat something.

getzi, u r prob 5wks plus along based on ur lmp. 1st day of lmp is considered day 1. so u tabulate from there.
syrah, me ordered complete bedrest also when i spot again for the 3rd time last sunday. spotting still on and off. I think u should request for regular jabs from ur gynae.

Welcome iluvlebins!
Victoria,
Greenish-yellow discharge doesn't sound normal. Better highlight it to your Gynae if it continues.
Qiuen,
How abt placing warm towels on it? Shld be similar to your warm showers.
For me I drink warmed milk or ribena when I'm hungry. Last night I ate the most dinner I've had for the whole week. Ate pizza! Realize I like fried chicken now too. So bad for health but at least the food is keeping down.

Syrah. Oh thanks. The soreness drives me crazy at times. Esp after a sleep.
Vic. Can't get a earlier slot with ur gynae. As for the MS. Dont worry too much. I don't think it's related to weak/ strong body. Every1's body react differently. We are lucky for now it's just the nauseous. Quite a few mtb here have to run to toilets.

peachbb: i experienced twice so far some movement which i am totally surprised... something like the bubble u said, how can be so early ?
i really hope to burp more cos it helps to relieve the nausea... lunchtime i will drink some sprite or 7-up as these do not have caffeine instead of coke...
