Pregnancy

https://www.mountelizabeth.com.sg/patient-services/specialists/profile/lee-weng-soon-james Dr James Lee has a private practice walking distance from near my place @ Punggol. Reviews say that he charges around $500 per visit, but my husband's company allows claiming of up to $5K for gynae visits so cost is covered😀 That aside, wondering how's his professionalism and expertise? TIA🙏🏼

My first appointment cost about $400. The supplements and blood test already subsidised but so quite expensive for me. I can only claim medisave after delivery right? Does anyone know if subsequent appointment is going to be that expensive too? Is there frequent blood test?

I’m 6 weeks pregnant in my first pregnancy, my hormonal changes are really bad that I’m not only popping many acnes but I also start to feel really bad breath everyday. Doctor say it is hormonal change but the bad breath and nausea is making me sick. Does anyone here faced the same issues as well and how do you make yourself feel better? My energy level is so low I almost can’t work at all #advice #firsttimemom

Everyday I feel like throwing up. All the time I'm gagging. Most of the time nothing other than juice comes out as I only able to eat biscuits, milo and bread. I hate food. All food smell makes me gag non stop and I gag every hr! My stomach feels very uneasy. As if I have just gurp down 2litre of water with air and drinking water makes me so uncomfortable. More than just bloat but a very disgusting feeling in my chest stomach and below chest. Is this normal? I have to lie on my bed most of the time. The moment I start to move around I can't stop gagging. I can't step out of the house. I'm so weak and sick. How do I know if I need medical help if this continue. Is this normal ladies? It's my first pregnancy and I can't imagine this going on for 9months. Will food advserion gets better? I'm so worried that my baby is not getting enough nutrients. I seriously can't even look at proper cooked food without throwing up. Please advise I'm so tired of feeling like this. Is this how all of you feel as well? I don't know how to tell the doctor. They just say is pregnancy symptoms most of the time. But everytime when the episode comes I non stop gagging vomiting and shiver. I'm always getting sudden chill but it last for an hour or two and I will start to sweat badly after covering up. Does anyone feels the same?

Hello everyone, I am currently wk14 and i have poor appetite. I have minimal morning sickness hence seldom vomit. Is it still normal to have poor appetite? I am probably only eating the equivalent of 1.5meals a day…. I haven’t gain any weight since the start of pregnancy. Is this a cause for concern? I am worried that baby will not receive enough nutrients. At the same time, food really don’t appeal to me anymore, I only eat a few mouthful of food just to stave off hunger so that I don’t feel nauseous. #firsttimemom

Hi mummies, im 14 weeks pregnant. Seems like i have developed many small pimples on my breasts. Is this normal?

Hi all, typically when do you start taking your maternity leave? Does your gynae give you HL prior to your EDD and how long?

I been feeling very tired during my pregnancy , currently in my 17 weeks . Feeling giddy , nauseous , lower abdominal cramps/pain sometimes during the day. And I got no mood to work at all, but I can’t keep taking MC / leave as I have used up quite a bit of it during my 1st 2 mths of my pregnancy as I have very bad morning sickness. Now sometimes I will force myself to go work when I’m not feeling well which only make myself depress more , some of my colleagues (who never get pregnant and is not married)understands me and will let me rest inside the office but some (who is a mother and father) don’t , they will just give you faces or give bad remarks when you rest inside or when you took MC/Leave ,and cause I’m working in service line which makes things worse and I don’t always get good customers and was even shouted at once when I’m at work . I still got 5more mths to go and I don’t know how long more I can endure . I’m really tired

Hi Mummies, is Kinohimitsu bird nest with snow lotus seed safe for pregnancy? It shows that it's safe from their website, however other articles suggest to avoid snow lotus seed during pregnancy and breast-feeding phase.
