Hi Ashley & Kimmy- yup, tummy is big now...when i was 3 mths, the salesgal at maternity wear tot i was 4.5 mths...who knows, maybe u gals will strike twins too! *Wink* I only know was twins at 8 weeks scan, the 6 weeks scan doc only saw 1 sac...yup, everything now is fast forward 1 to 2 mths... meaning i started getting backaches when i was 4 mths + when backache shld start later for singelton... din know dr loh said cant eat papaya le.. i eat papaya freq due to constipation from multi vits...guess have to cut down now...
u girls can start looking at stretch mark creams to apply fr after 12 weeks onwards... ur boobs n tummy starts to balloon real fast.i was lazy during initial period, now already kana some stretch marks =(.. clarins & elancyl are good brands...

Clb, yeah twin boys right.. How i envy you! I want twins too (not sure if will regret later) and want to pass 1st trimester. Your pregnancy is quite stabile already. I'm praying that all of us will follow your path! Btw i've been eating lots of papaya during 2ww cos of severe constipation, but now i stopped after reading this forum liao. Dr.loh really said cannot take papaya? thought it's just old folks' tale. What about spicy food har, sometimes i can only eat spicy food now otherwise cannot swallow, due to nausea.. Actually cannot eat also right?
Tzac, so you're having MS too.. I'm happy to have someone going through the same thing make sure to keep yourself warm in office!
Kimmy, i know how you feel. I have been telling my mum to keep it low profile but she can't be happier to spread the news to her friends. Sigh. Actually some of my close friends/colleagues know that i'm doing ivf because i am those kind that cannot lie. I just told them the truth. I'm prepared on the other hand to be asked by them lor, whether it's going well or not.

Peko, *hugs* hope D&C goes smooth and rest well afterwards.. Take good care of yourself before trying again..
Vann, good to know baby is bigger. Your MS doesn't go to waste. That's how i encourage myself whenever MS strikes. 4x vomit so far today and i'm afraid doctor will say that i'm dehydrated too cos the water all comes out everytime i vomit. You're on drips at home or hospital? Hope you get better soon.. How did doctor discover that you're dehydrated?

Hi Vann - 8weeks hurdle passed. Closer and closer to goal. Are you still on drips? Did dr say why you dehydrated?
Hi Ashley - sleep well tonight! tomorrow scan should be exciting
Hi Peko - *hugs* and sorry to hear the news. Take care & hope all goes well for D&C. If you believe in it, do try mini-confinement for the body.
Hi Nell/Ashley - any of you ever had greenish crinone discharge (like the green "sugus" sweet)? Sorry to be so gross but today's wipe scared me coz all came out green. There's also a glob with red but i know that's blood and i just only hope it's not anything serious. Didn't get it after 1st wipe so hoping not yeast infection or something. Ashley, i don't like the crinone smell too! hahaha.

Ron, thanks! Ya can't wait for my scan tmrw, good news pls pls pls.. Btw believe those are crinone gel that was not absorbed well. I do have that too most of the days but it's just white in colour (which i assumed is the original colour of crinone), not green.. But it's like sugus sweet indeed! Maybe you want to call your gynae on the colour? Or maybe Nell has any other suggestion..

Ashley - ya, it's so annoying to get such weird color. Already worried when i saw the red on the crinone, then the rest came out Green of all colour!! Alamak!! As if not enough to worry about.
If I get another green tomrorow, will call clinic. Hopefully it was just body playing crinone rainbow.
Sweet baby dreams tonight to everyone!

Ron, is it more greenish or yellowish? I only remember I have lots of discharge. More yellowish cakey kind after "used". If fresh one drip out, it is usually white cream kind. Sometimes I get red blood color strand. That's normal. As long as it is not itchy or fishy smell should be fine that's what doc tell me.
Just wondering if we are using same kind of Crinone. Mine is a white tampon like stick in white paper wrap with purple words.
Always call doc if u not sure.
I got to go pack my luggage.
Goodnight everyone. Sweet dreams!

Ron- sounds like infection, better call yr Dr & check with them, somemore tomorrow is PH.
tzac >> hehe i went underarm waxing ytd liao! Shiok! I buey tahan shaving lah...ahhaha but i figured since its on the surface, should be fine. The only concern is skin is more sensitive during pregnancy so can be more pain.
hehe I also on the way to do pedicure now Vedure does nails for pregnant woman meaning their polish is organic and since they have a medical arm, i would think they are quite professional. read about them in parenting magazine. Hehehehe
Happie Friday!!!

Ron, my crinone is the same as nell's, white package with purple fonts. Is it still giving you greenish colour discharge today? good luck with your monday scan!
Kimmy, wow not bad ah. I can't clean my toenails too, may need to do pedicure soon..
Nell, enjoy your trip..
Vann, hang on in there.. Hope you won't need to be on drips for too long.. So have to stay at home all the time now?
I just went for my wk6 scan today, and teared when i heard heartbeat.. And doctor found 2 sacs! But one is smaller and weaker heartbeat, i so hope that both will survive.. I'm so happy today, but still many many months to go! Glad to have this support group, hope all of us will have a smooth pregnancy!
Happy weekend everyone!!

Morning everyone!
I wanna faint! I was showering earlier and was prompted to read the ingredients at the back of my shower milk (Its Johnson & Johnson for babies, so I thought it should be safe right?) and saw that 'Retinyl Palmitate' is one of the ingredients present. This is the ingredient Dr Loh also ask me to stay away from when I saw him last week. I've been using it for more than a year liao. How ah????

Hi j03, how are you? They said after 8weeks is fine and not too far, but some still prefer to wait till 1st tri over. Is dr only advice you to go for FET 2 months later? I am sure you will bFP this round too, so either you go for your trip before FET or wait till 1st tri over maybe more ideal for you. All the best!!!
Hi tzac >> haha thanks for yr compliments. Just trying to look less haggard. Wahaha! Update us on your scan, am sure it will be good!!!
Hi j03 >> welcome!! Mm Nell flew quite a bit in 1st tri, like during 2ww and week 7 if I rem correctly. She will be back from Hokkaido on wed so she will be the best person to advice you!
I believe as long as gynae clears you and you keep that happy mood, should be ok. Yea, maybe don't
Do too long flights cuz of potential aching back...

Hi pink, thanks!!!!!!!!
Hi j03, no prob, sorry to hear abt yr previos incidents. In that case, better to be more cautious. Yea maybe if u do after yr trip, you might also feel more relaxed or who knows u may strike during the trip too! I'm sure we will be seeing u in here soon too.

hi,
jo3>sisters here discovering an alternative product for stretch marks besides the usual cocoa butter.can oso use for everyday normal use post-preg..non greasy as easily absorbed after awhl.great for dry skin.
moo>u would like 3x 60mls?or wld u prefer 200ml(large)? 60ml great for travelling,size convenient and fits into handbag.200ml can put in your bedroom for after shower use before sleep..itz cheaper this way compared to 3bottles of 60ml.how?just my opinion..(mayb 1x60ml + 1x200ml).
dunno how much 200ml cost but definately more savings purchasing overseas..
