Hi hi, Bumping it up for others to see. The SO just informed me that she prefers to have the cot with one side that can be "pulled down". So do PM me if you have something like that to let go. Thanks!

Hi, I am looking to buy a 2nd-hand baby cot. Will need it around Jan/Feb so it is ok even if you are going to need it for a couple of months more. It should be in good condition with no broken part or splinter. I prefer a smaller cot as I plan to move the baby to his/her room after 1 year old...

Have you tried seeing your MP? I am not sure how he or she can help you but at least he or she may be able to help you to speed up this process and kick those people's asses for being so slow.

The entire obsession over "traditional families" is really hurting a lot of people. I salute all the single moms in Singapore! They work hard, pay taxes, get less maternity leave and benefits, no baby bonus, no tax rebate etc etc. The government wants more babies, shouldn't it start from...

Thanks for the clarification! That still sucks though for single moms.

Hi, It is actually possible that certain opks show colouration that is close to the control line but not darker than the control line when ovulation has occured. Try another brand if you are not sure. I was kiasu and bought a few types and see which one I am comfortable with. Ended up using...

Yes. This is more likely for women with irregular cycles. Usually the positive will show up a few days later, but can start trying in hope that it will catch the egg. If you get your period, it is not -ve ovulation. Try changing the brand of OPKs you use if you keep getting complete -ve.

Abortion is a controversial issue for many. I do not wish to hijack this thread to have any argument. Just FYI, I am atheist so I don't find it appropriate that you are bringing any god into this discussion. I think the more important thing is to provide help, support and listening ear to the...

Hi, Sorry to hear about your situation. One responder already posted those helplines. They will be able to help you figure out what your options are. Also, many people in this thread are very judgemental. There is no need to mention any god if you do not know the original poster's religion...

Hi, Sorry to hear about your situation. Hope it all gets completely resolved soon. Also, another thing you may wish to consider is what happens if something happens to you (touchwood!). I understand from your post that your husband has no parental rights over your child at the moment. Have you...

Hi, Unfortunately, single mothers are not entitled to baby bonus and other benefits like childcare subsidies, maid subsidies etc. Not even maternity leave. This sucks, I know. Unfortunately, many people in Singapore do not even know how marginalized single mothers are, by the system. More...

Re: Anyone get pregnant with Husband diagnosed Teratozoospermia (Abnormal sperm shape I know some Singaporean couples go for IVF in Bangkok as the cost is much cheaper than in Singapore, even after accounting for air tickets and accommodating. PM me if you want the contact. Adoption is another...

Nah. You essentially pee on a stick, or dip the stick into pee. It doesn't involves inserting it to any part of your body. :001_302:

For those of you who have problems telling whether your OPK is positive, you may want to use this website as a reference: http://opktester.quickpregnancytests.com/ You can upload the image of opk and see what result you get. Of course, the other alternative is to use the forums on some...

I bought mine from Quick Pregnancy Tests. Been recommending it to everyone coz I got pregnant the first time I used their products, lol.

I have a friend who got pregnant by seeing the Chinese doctor at Eu Yan Seng (Chinatown). She is the senior lady doctor there. But of course, do get a medical checkup to see what could be the reason. Good luck!

After taking clomid for more than 1 year, it turns out that my body reacted badly to it. I faced problems of thinning uterine lining, so had to stop Clomid and use natural herbal treatments instead. So sometimes throwing a lot of medicine at it is not the best solution. Best of luck!

Had one before. But I was on Clomid so there is a possibility of double ovulation. Shouldn't be of a big concern, just keep trying when it is positive! Good luck!

I used the one from Quick Pregnancy Tests. Was super kiasu and used both sensitivity test strips thrice a day. So can tell from not positive to positive, and managed to predict accurately when it will turn positive. Was trying for 16 months and spent a lot of money on test kits. Changed to...

Pregnancy test kits are never almost never wrong. Do note that the results need to be taken within 5 minutes (or as the packaging says). Faint lines appearing after a long time could be evaporation lines. Faint lines usually indicate very low HCG levels, so test it again after 2 days. Good luck!
