Hi dear..

U can start to drink milk anytime of pregnancy even can start now. But try to drink alittle n see how first. Some mummies (like me) I have lactose intolerance so can't drink milk at all. ( so I never take any milk powder for mum or fresh milk) . U have to be careful on taking milk powder for mum cos" it may cause mummy to gain alot of weight & diagnose with gestional diabetes (during 2nd trimester) so choose a milk powder powder which is lower in sugar content.

Restriction to food hmmm.. Actually just eat everything in moderation... Of cos no raw or uncooked food. Other then that just eat whatever u like.

Strictly no herbal stuff.. During 1st trimester. Personally I started taking Tonics when I m in my 12weeks.
Have more rest, avoid carry heavy stuff during 1st trimester . Be happy & have a positive attitude ! Everything will be fine!

Oh ya drink alot of water ... Keeping urself hydrated is important !

Hi Karenkan,

Hmmm... Actually mayonnaise is okie for me personally cos I take macdonalds burger during my 1st trimester .. They have just abit of mayo I think it's okie. Just take in moderately should be a problem.

Basically .. 1st trimester is the most fragile you got to take extra care ! Treasure this god"s gift !! Jia you !!!

Hi

Dr Ang from gleneagles.... I feels so relieved after cancelling the Japan trip. Heard from friends that the radiation level is still not stable, so better be safe then sorry. & also advised from dilys, better not travel by air... Now everything settled thou I wasted the air ticket as it's non- refundable....

Lucky, I was thinking better don't do anything now, juz wait till after the the 1st trimenster....

Hi all mums-to-be,

This is my first time pregnancy, and about week 6 now, will meet the gynae on coming Tue.
But I feel a bit cramp & got a little bit of brown secretion (like the early period)... I m quite worry about it. :(
Anybody had this experience? Should I go to hospital to check immediately?

Based on my fren's experiences, any cramp plus brown discharge is not a good sign.. U can wait till tue for yr check up... If not u can go to any women's clinic... No need to go hospital....

Hi

You shouldnt be waiting till tues. u should go n visit any gynae from a women"s clinic. Please don't go to KKH cos they will not do anything & will tell u only 6 weeks n ask u go back to monitor so by then everything will be too late. It's not normal to have cramps or spotting.. It's not good! Take care okie!Where is ur gynae located?? If u need to go hospital .. Mt A or geneagles can help u immediately .. Maybe they will ward u if u have bleeding or give u jab to stable ur pregnancy. Jia you!!

Hi, im a mother to be too. Well i do have brown discharge same like you and i was worried. I went yo the gynae and the brown discharge is actually spotting. Gynae will give you a hormone jab and utrogestan to insert to the vagina. Spotting is actually quite dangerous as it can lead to miscarriage. Its common during first trimester. So think you go get the jab and medicine would be better. Have more rest and try not to walk much.

Hi

Have you know your bb gender ? If yes.. Of cos go ahead n buy! :)
Not sure of gender yet but was thinking more of the items like stroller, car seat etc.
These usually come in unisex colors anyway.
But just found out that in laws pantang, I cannot buy anything until I give birth :( unless I do it secretly.

Hi all mummies to be,

I am now about 5weeks pregnant and I did not take any folic acid as yet. After reading everything about folic acid and the developing fetus, I'm so worried now.
My first appt with the gynae will be next wed, can I buy the folic acid from pharmacy now or do I need to wait till the gynae prescribe it to me? Thanks!

I took few times of the medicine that the gynae gave me, I feel better now. Less pain & brown things.
CalistaLicious, you take care too :)
