Good luck snow....I also did IVF when trying for #1 but were unsuccesful...and then conceived naturally 4 months later

autumn, if by 6pm means how many hours you were in labour? A few women I knew who ended up having C-sec or being persuaded to have c-sect around 5 or 6pm....i can't help wondering if it's because doctor wants to go home?

did you really strike in 2 months? this is very interesting, i wish i can see what's written in that book

no need epidural or laughing gas, i survived it...only 3.5 hours. So you can also do it...

i had my ultrasound at 6 weeks, heartbeat was 118pm. The next US will be at 12 weeks...i have no choice here. I wish i'm in msia, can just walk in any gynae for ultrasound. Sorry about your loss. You are right, must stay positive and happy,

What else do you take? I'm taking pregnancy multivitamins (2 tablets), folic acid (1 tablet), caltrate plus (2 tablets) everyday. Will stop folic acid after first trimester.

what do you mean by silent miscarriage...you've had positive HPT?

Thanks, any particular brand is good?

I'm not working but need to stay awake to take care of my hyper 21months old. I get very sleepy after dinner.

I used to drink 1 cup of coffee morning, 1 cup evening, now reduce half morning, half evening....sometimes when no urge i just skip

healthy food usually not nice to eat, i also prefer white rice

I think if eat brown rice you are suppose to reduce the amount coz it's supposed to make you feel full for longer, not much difference in calorie.

have you tried eating less (or totally 0) starchy food? anyway, 3kg is not much

constipation is normal during pregnancy. drinking at least 2l of plain water helps, eat more beans, and dried fruits(don't overdo it or you'll end up lau sai)

I had my first baby, 3.6kg....no epidural, no gas...it was painful. for my second one, i'll do the same.
