So envious of u... At least u got e mood to go out. I just don't feel like getting out of the house. ESP for meal times... Cos I dont like to vomit in public toilets.... Today report MC too... I wonder how u gals r dealing with work in such conditions... Cannot tell pple I m pregnant cos I'm still not 3mths yet... Yet it's so obvious. N when pple ask cannot deny, yet cannot tell... So Xin ku...

Do u all find climbing e stairs a difficult task now? I feel worst than an old lady... I used to b an athlete, I m also very skinny... Now e bulging tummy is even more obvious...
*hugs* ya it's very xinku... :( hope u will feel better soon!

my workplace... 4 levels, no lift... everyday running up and down many many times. i'm not skinny, my BMI is over 26 one... so not obvious as i hv a tummy to begin with... but a couple of closer colleagues know, and always telling me off for stomping up and down the stairs... i wasn't even aware, sometimes when i walk, very forceful. i've told my immediate superior too because need to find relief for my work. previously there are other pregnant colleagues going up and down and i feel they very xinku... now they all back from maternity already, my turn to xinku =/

last night ended up having prata... when watching the foodie show on channel 8 where bryan wong was introducing the different kinds of laksa in m'sa, got craving for curry dish... keke~ is it bad to eat too spicy? i love spicy food a lot and i can eat until very very spicy... now i still indulge in my little chilli padi etc sometimes but hubby isn't happy about it. =/

Hi Felicity! Is wk 10 a bit early for the oscar test? I was just asking my gynae yesterday about it & she said 12 wks is the best time to do.. tho anytime between 11-14wks is ok..

hee cos when i went for the scan i was 8+ week and the doc says do oscar test in week 10... we wanna quickly fix our package and fix all the appt... maybe i'm a bit too ganjiong lol :p



I was with Dr Shamini at Raffles women clinic for my first scan too, on wed =) baby was 1.81 cm on wed, EDD 2 Sep 2012. was there to confirm my pregnancy first, but gg to Dr Benjamin Tham for my package~

Hi Felicity! My bmi is between 25-30 also.. feeling like a balloon now even tho am just 9 wks pregnant! & these days, i feel hungry every 2-3 hrs.. if i dun eat sth, i'd feel really nauseated... trying hard to control my diet + add in more slow walking time.


*hugs* ya it's very xinku... :( hope you will feel better soon!

haha when i first saw the heartbeat, i just thought it's so amazing! the second time was at TMC, i saw and heard it, and saw bb stretching the back and wriggle the toe a bit.. when zoomed in the toes are just tiny little moving dots. so cute!! isn't it amazing? and heart rate was 170 bpm! my hubby was like... bb like running a race, heart beating so fast, then i said... it's swimming and diving ma... working out inside mummy... keke...

so exciting right? i was keen to sign at TMC, but my mum reminded me that as civil servant, i may hv discounts at KK. is it true, anyone knows? thanks!

and hi icysheens! hee... dun worry we are in here together, definitely notice one! when is ur bb due?
