Hi feather.. Ooo thanks for the Info. Wow you must have spend the whole day doing Oscar ? Oh .. What business you plan to do actually ?? Lol.. Now it's a enjoyment not working .. :) baby came at the right time so I can rest more. I quit my 8yrs job half a yr ago just to try for a baby.
I took 2.5 to 3 hours for Oscar. Quite a while, missed my gynae appointment by one whole hour. I was thinking of going something something related to my previous field, something like sourcing in the architecture industry. I was in architecture but too much OT and working on weekends which I don't see as a good future when I have a little one with me. It must be hard to leave a job of 8 years!! There for so long, must be sentimental. Rest well and yeah, its an enjoyment not working now.

Hi Dilys,

I'm staying with my parents in law now coz just got married in June and my BTO is only ready in 3 years time... They are both retirees and waiting to take care of grandchild... :) So I will have them to take care of my baby... My sis tried infant child care but it was not a very pleasant experience... THink getting a trust worthy nanny that stays near you might be an better option..
So good!! Got parents in law take care!! I'm still having headache over that question. Maybe I take a longer time off work, maybe my SO stay home look after as he can work from home as well but provided he can take it as SAHD, haha!!

Hi all,

What kind of supplements are you all taking? I'm at my 8 week and is taking folic acid + duphaston only.. Is it sufficient?

Have you all gained any weight yet? ahahah
I'm taking multi vit with folic in it, fish oil with DHA and two glasses of milk formula for pregnancy a day. You can start on fish oil nearing 2nd trimester, DHA is for baby's brain development. Drink milk formula at 10 weeks when the placenta is about to take over supplying baby with food. I take multi vit for pregnancy as I don't think I can eat enough calcium for my baby's need, seems like we need alot.

Oh ... that's long for OSCAR. Oh.. you plan to do setup your own business in the architecture industry??... from what I know usually have to work very very long hours... Don't worry too much la .. See how things goes. hehe.. for me It's not very hard for me to leave a job of 8 years.. .. I am flying with SQ so it's hard for me to conceive if I continue flying .Hubby & I plan to have a dragon baby so I quit to relax, take care of my health for that 1/2 year.. It's worth it .. I got this little one... hehe so excited..

Hi Yuzudinga,

Oh.. you ran out of dupheston?? That's 2 more weeks to your next appt. .. I think you should get it from your gynae asap. Your gynae didn't make sure that you got sufficient medicine till the next appt??
For my gynae, he is very kiasu.. he will give me at least extra 10 tablets for each time. You are in your 8 wk... you gained lots of weight?? How much have you gained?? Do you have any MS, big appeitte?

As for me.. I lose weight but tummy is abit showing. I have no MS & eat 6 meals a day. haha sleep early doesn't make you fat... I am sleeping the whole eat.. eat & sleep. haha .. Maybe the food that you eat .. bb doesn't absorb then .. everything being absorb by u ... lol.. relax....

haha... you are not fat la .... Bloated maybe. Wow.. Very Lucky for you ... good appetite. I only survive on Bee Hoon.
Dupheston is very important to bb I think ... 安胎药... baby to be stable ... have to eat that everyday... better don't skip! Faster call ur gynae & check!

Don't worry la ... Be postive .. bb will be alright !

Got it... :) So fish oil when nearing 2nd trimester... Can I take calcium pills instead of formula milk for mummy?

YEah.. Just 1 day difference.. :)

You should weigh and monitor your weight gain k.. I was shocked when I saw that I lost about 1 kg even with the growing tummy size hahah... Same as Dilys... But if your BMI is below average, I think it is ok to gain a little more weight during pregnancy...
