Nausea & low appetite

My first 10 weeks of pregnancy was okay with no nausea but i feel more lethargic than usual. But from week 11 onwards, my appetite got smaller and i vomit everytime i ate something. Is this normal? Im worried that my baby may not have enough nutrients. This week is my week 12 and i depend on fruits and milk to get through the day. I still feel nausea and it was affecting my work. Luckily, my boss was understanding and allowed me to wfh. Will this feeling goes away in a few weeks? #firsttimemom

it’s normal. it’ll get better

I had gone there for my first pregnancy check up but since i was underage Dr. Lim referred me to KKH instead so I gave birth at KKH and the experience was horrible for me. Now i'm with my second pregnancy (i'm 21 this yr btw) and i'm going back to Dr Lim for my first pregnancy check up again, may i know what's your experience with him (giving birth) 😮‍💨

Hi, I’m with Dr Lim for a couple of months now. Saw him pre-pregnancy for my fertility checks and now, I’m pregnant with my first child. My cousins were all delivered by Dr Lim 20-30 years ago, and my aunt highly recommended him. He’s as good as what I researched, very friendly and dedicated man. During ultrasounds, he’s also very detailed and would give advice on do’s and don’ts. I feel safe under his care. Only downside is the waiting time, as he occasionally have emergency surgeries and stuff, have to wait quite a bit even though I have an appointment.

Any recommendation for gynae in KKH

Anyone has recommendation for pro-natural birth gynae in KKH? #firsttimemom #advicepls

I really feel you on this, being a first-time mum and wanting to find the right gynae who will support your birth plan is so important. I don't have a specific name to share right now, but I'd suggest posting in the KKH mummies Facebook group because the mums there are really active and many have gone through natural birth there. You can also ask at your next KKH appointment if the gynae on duty has experience supporting natural births, and they can sometimes refer you within the clinic. Hope you find someone who makes you feel safe and heard throughout your journey lah.

Anyone who use Civil service card in NUH/KKH?

Medical benefits

I really feel you on this, navigating medical benefits can be so confusing especially when you just want to make sure everything is covered for your child. I don't have direct experience with the civil service card at NUH or KKH myself, but I think it's worth calling the hospital's billing counter directly as they are usually quite helpful in explaining what is claimable lah. Hopefully another mum here has gone through this and can share more details with you.

Nausea and vomiting during first trimester

Hi ladies, #firsttimemom here at 10 weeks. Been having nausea since 6 weeks and gag everytime I try to drink water. The nausea got worse around week 9-10 and I gag more often but I always try to stop myself from actual vomiting. Wonder if you guys feel better after vomiting? Should I just let it out instead of suppressing it? Also, any other remedies to deal with the nausea and lack of water? I have tried drinking honey/ lemon water and 100Plus but always end up with a weird aftertaste in the mouth (I googled and seems like folic acid is the culprit here) :(

ive seen some mothers on youtube mentioning they drink vitamin water to replace water since they couldn’t stomach it and it kinda helps them to stay hydrated. vitamin b12 as a supplement could also help to ease the nausea

I had a gush of water coming out and the feeling was just like how our water bag broke. And there was like a mucus plug. Went to KKH and doctor removed this huge clot. I didn’t have any bleeding or anything and even doctor was really questioning me if I had bleeding or miscarriages previously. I’m so heartbroken. Scared if there’s going to be any infection. I’m diagnosed with threatened miscarriage 😢

I really feel for you, this must have been such a frightening and heartbreaking experience to go through. Please head back to KKH or A&E if you notice any new symptoms and stay in close contact with your doctor so they can monitor things properly, sending you and baby lots of strength.

Recommendations SGH OBGYN

Hihi! I would like to deliver at SGH. But idk which gynae is good. Anyone has experience at SGH and have any gynae recommendations, please feel free to intro. Thank you in advance!!

Thành viên VIP

Totally understand, choosing a gynae can feel quite overwhelming when you don’t know where to start. I don’t have a specific SGH recommendation, but maybe try the SGH mummies groups or call the women’s clinic directly as they can usually guide you based on your needs and doctor availability, hopefully other mums here can share too lah.

Dicharge with Pic. Could be TMI

I am currently having this colour discharge when I move a lot on & off. I am about 9 weeks++ . No pain. No vomiting. Just a bit of bloat & sore boobs & a little nauseous. Is it common? Anyone have had experiences it before or went to see Doc for that & turns out ok? Freaking out !! Help me

Dicharge with Pic. Could be TMI

I had it at week 6. Doc gave me a hormone jab and pills for bleeding, told me to rest more. It got better at week 10 now. Rest more, don't walk too much or strain yourself, get more bedrest if possible.

Will there be any ultrasound at every kkh appt? #firsttimemom

Do we get an ultrasound to see baby on every appointment at kkh? I just did my dating scan at 8 weeks. 10 week I have another appointment( Antenatal monitoring clinic). Then week 12 another appointment (Antenatal diagnostic centre). Wonder what will they do for these appointments?

Here's the difference of both ADC/AMC and not every check up you will have ultrasound. For ADC yes will have ultrasound, then for AMC at later period is for FTS counseling.
