Hi chendolgal,

Detailed scan last normally 15 mins provided your baby is coorperative. :) some last for 1hour. Talk to your baby before the test ask him/her to be good... :)

I am in my 18 weeks my first preg. I still unable to experience the "quickening"... is it because I have thick fats on my tummy? I use to be very plum and still very plump :p

The "quickening" is a feeling in the tummy or when we put our hands on the tummy?

Gynea said some mum will only feel their babies when week 20++ but most friends around me already can feel it some as early as week 16..

I also dindt put on much weight, just gain 2kg since the preg... has anyone experience the similar?


Thanks

Maybe it is really true that the first preg will feel it much later.. enjoy your "meeting" session with your baby :). Where is your gynea? Think of any hospital to deliver?

Hi clearbluesky,

R u a 1st time mum?? Well as for me I am a 1st time mum.. I feel my baby exactly at 18 wks. You don't have to put your hands on your tummy.. you can just feel the baby moving. I only gained 1kg so far, but baby is gaining weight so it's fine.

Hmm I am slim type.. I am not sure if being plump will effect u in feeling baby"s movement later ... But as long as your baby weight is gaining fine .. U don't have to worry so much. Is your tummy very big already? My tummy is quite big & hard.

You can try to beat your tummy softly.. See if there is any movement?? My baby reacts to loud music so whenever I on loud music he will move, now more movements from him so if there are times that he don't move .. I will slap my tummy.. Then he will react.. :) of cos talk to your baby.. He/she is listening.. Hehe.. My baby is very sensitive to 2 words " daddy" & "baby" he will react when I say these 2 words...

Jia you

Yes .. Glucose water taste like 100plus when you are drinking it... But once you finish it .. The after taste on your thoart will make you feel like puking.

Breast pump personally I think it's best to buy after birth. You don't know of you have sufficient milk.. Some friends bought pumps but they used once only so wasted !!

Hi Dilys, yes I am first time mum.. then I didnt feel it yet.. I will patiently wait :) maybe it is really due to the thick fats I have on my tummy .. haha . Tummy is getting bigger i guess.. I didnt realize it as I felt it is bigger after i eat and drink, maybe it is bloating or water retention. Normally it will be smaller when I first got up in the morning.

Some say maybe my baby is a girl so will move gentle and not easy to feel initially.. not sure how true it is. I did on the classical music quite loud but don't seems make any difference.

Wow... so wonderful as your baby can start to react to what you said.. I am looking forward for that. I plan to join the prenatal yoga in coming months. Have you do any exercise? So far I just eat and sleep and sometimes walk and shopping.. nowadays start to feel backache and cant really sleep at night. Hope the exercise will help.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi clearbluesky,

Yes baby can react to what we said.. Cos" since I got preggie I start talking baby, hubby will talk to baby everyday for 1/2hour since preggie till now to 1hr every nite. :)so baby can regonise hubby"s voice.

Don't worry .. Maybe your baby is still small..there are still space inside..sometimes u won't feel so early.. Some will feel later.

I haven't do any exercise .. Just some brisk walk sometimes after my dinner... Always hubby suggest to walk with me.. Alone ?? I will be too lazy.. Haha.. Shopping is the best exercise.. Haha it's too tiring now as baby"s weight is gaining.. walking also tend
to slow down alot!!

Just do whatever you are comfortable :)
