familyof4 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2009 actually it depends on how stable the pregnancy is my gunae advised me against travelling as I get my spotting in my 5th week due to the implantation. so in the end, we need to stop all forms of "activities" and travelling. As for the pregnancy checks...i found out my baobeis in my 4th week!!! For my gal, I had a very strong feeling that I am pregnant when menses was "late" for a week. Tho mine was never punctual...for my boy, my gal was the one who told me I am preggy even before I am due for my next cycle! But i brush her off lah...cos I know she always wanted a sibling Then my Hubby also suspect I am pregnant soon after...I was oblivious of what is brewing in my tummy! But its good to be confirmed by the gynae that you are pregnant It's so exciting!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hello88 2 Report post Posted April 29, 2009 hello88, we are shifting in to our EM and my mom already headache! My boy loves to climb up and down and we die die must block the stairs as soon as we move in...I guess it's gonna be good work out for me! hahaha, it'll definitely be good work out for u. I enjoy running up the stairs but then didnt managed to slim down even after staying for 3.5yrs. I enjoy the 'workouts' when sweeping and mopping the whole house. Siong!

hello88 2 Report post Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) Heheh, Happy Belated Bdae to familyof4's little boy! Wah, that means u r very young onli leh, since u had ur 1st wen u're 24. Haha, Zc31, for a moment, I tot ur wife pregs liao. hehe.. Hope to hear the gd news from you soon! I read online (in sgmommies forum) that there's not much of a use to go gynae before 8wks, cuz the only thing they can do is confirm the pregnancy. And so, it'll be a waste of $, esp since the doc will tell ur to come back then to scan etc. The advice from the forum is to just confirm pregs with GP and search ard for a gynae. 8wks then go scan. Save $$. can also visit the gynae to listen to his advises especially for 1st time parents...also get folic acid and vitamins or calcium pills for those in need of it. one point to note is,once wifey confirm pregnant, stop all your vitamins or supplements if u're not sure of the dosage for pregnant ladies eg Vitamin A.

Zc31 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2009 First trimester is ok to travel, only towards the end of 2nd trimester where stomach is getting bigger then it is advice not to travel unless with Doc endorsement. SWINE..... u still have to go cause everything pay for unless u r willing to give it up. Did u buy travel insurance? Can claim or not? Cox i read in other forums about not travelling during 1st tri hence the mixed feelings. Yes will be getting travel insurance. I also hope nothing goes wrong cause alot of plans for the us trip liao.

Angel81 1 Report post Posted April 30, 2009 (edited) Hehe, I think zc31 counted from the date of the missed 'auntie' bah, that's why it's 2 wks. hehehe.. Cross fingers tight tight for u zc31! Yah, I also heard tat it's nt v gd to travel during 1st tri, cuz the BB may not b very stable. I think if there's no complications like spotting/bleeding etc, then it should be fine bah. Also by that time, ur shd have met up with a gynae liao, and can check with the gynae if the BB is stable anot loh. hello88 I heard about stopping supplement pills wen pregs and chk with gynae if the pills are fine anot. But if I'm taking those pills for pregs/breastfeeding. Those also need to stop? Chrono Hee.. How's ur wife's preggs coming along?

Feeling is fantastic, probably because it is the 3rd time i'm not overly excited about it but was surprised that i can feel it at 16th, maybe because of the 2 experiences i had earlier.

Guest melancholic Report post Posted April 30, 2009 Actually i wanted only 2, but my wife wants another one. She has the wombsville(borrow ya) so what she said counts. Haha.. My wife also wants to try for a girl.. after our first 2 are boys. But financially it's too much of a strain now... what with our purchase of a resale condo. then also wonder how if another fighter comes out to join the party.. but .. think the main worry is the caregiver portion.. cos all her aunties/mum already stretched looking after all the little ones. and we dun really trust nanny (not forgetting they cost alot too). Maids are out of the question after one of our ex-maids ended up murdering her new employer one month after we had released her. That said, if she really wants.. then I gotta work really hard... finance wise I mean.. haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
