Pregnancy

Anyone here is obese and pregnant? And has been prescribed blood thinner to reduce the risk of getting pre-eclampsia? Im in that situation but the blood thinner is causing me to vomit more than usual and when i vomit, its literally squeezing my stomach till only clear mucus comes out. And it gets very painful. When i go to the gynae, they say its not a must to continue but encouraged too. So anyone have been obese during pregnancy but didnt take blood thinners? Did everything turn out fine? 🥺

Hi mummies. Im a first time mom and im at my 25 +5 weeks. My baby has been actively kicking and moving throughout the whole day and i just want to know if its normal? There’s nothing to worry about right?

Is it normal to have loose stools/diarrhoea suddenly at 14w? My stomach is gassy and churning and started to have loose stools - maybe once or twice a day. #pregnancy

Does mommy feel full all the time no matter how less they eat during first trimester?

Hi mummies, based on reading, I understand that during first consultation (early pregnancy weeks) there will be transvaginal scan. For those who met male doctors, are they the ones performing the procedure or will a female nurse be doing so? Just feeling anxious about it... Any other concerns over male or female docs? TIA for sharing your experience! =)

Is szechuan preserved veg soup (四川菜湯) safe for pregnancy? I’m in my first trimester and have been having cravings for savoury food. I’ve seen mixed response on the internet about preserved food. Just wondering if it’s safe to drink the soup (and not eat the veg)? #firsttrimester #foodcravings #pregnancy

Hi, first time mom here and considering elective caesarean section at NUH. Highly appreciate some advice from mummies! 1. Any moms able to share about their recovery process for C-section? And whether it is at NUH or other hospitals. 2. Would you be able to breastfeed on the day of operation? Does the pain makes breastfeeding challenging afterwards? 3. For the wound, does NUH tends to use dissolvable stictches or would it be some kind of plaster? Did the scar heal fairly well afterwards? Thanks in advance!
