Recommendation for mummies community

Hi all, I’m newly pregnant and am looking for a community as most people around me aren’t in the same life stage. How do yall look for communities for support and do you have any recommendations? Thank you!

Hi mummies. I am >35 years old and expecting #3 now. I received some high risk results for Trisomy 13, 18 and 21 in my FTS results. I had already done NIPT so waiting for the results. It is extremely distressing for me as the ratio for Trisomy 18 was 1:18. Anyone has similar experiences to share some insights please?

FTS shows high risk of trisomy 1:43. So that’s a 2% chance. I can’t decide to wait or take the NIPT test. Anyone having the same results as me?

If it were me, I would do the NIPT for extra reassurance. I had an abnormal screening result before and the waiting was more stressful than the test itself. NIPT isn’t diagnostic, but it’s more accurate than FTS and gave me more peace of mind while waiting for further advice from my gynae. ❤️

Hair rebonding while pregnant?

Hi mommies, has anyone tried hair rebonding while pregnant? Is it considered safe, especially because of the chemicals and smell? I’ll also check with my OB, but I’d love to hear your experiences or advice. Thank you!

Honestly, I was so tempted to rebond my hair when I was pregnant too, but I decided to play it safe and just wait until after delivery — the chemicals and the strong smell in those salons made me a bit nervous, especially in the first trimester. Since there isn't a lot of clear research on this, I think it's really good that you're checking with your OB first, as they'll know your situation best. Better to be safe lah, and the rebonding can always wait a few more months! 😊

Covid during week 12 preggie

Any tips? Or anything that I need to prepare for baby? :(

I just recovered from influenza A and I was 12 going 13 weeks preggie. I fell sick with the flu with my first pregnancy at 18 weeks too and was admitted to KKH due to persistent high fever. All praise to God, baby was fine during the flu virus. Just look after yourself. Ensure plenty of hydration. Find any drinks that suit you except coffee and tea. I personally found Pocari sweat and fruit juices more satisfying than water. Regular Panadol ONLY to break fever. ALSO, just see a GP/gynae if your symptoms persists. I went to GP first for meds and they know to provide pregnancy safe meds.

Lower back cramping/aching.

I am currently 12 weeks pregnant and experiencing lower back cramping/aching. Is it normal? The last time i had this was during my previous miscarriage. I had this same pain together with bleeding. So far there is no spotting or bleeding. My fetal scan is on coming tuesday & i am so worried.

I can understand why you're worried, mummy, especially since it reminds you of what happened before. Lower back aching or mild cramping can actually be quite common around 12 weeks as your uterus grows and your ligaments start stretching. The reassuring part is that you don't have any spotting or bleeding at the moment. That said, because of your previous miscarriage and the anxiety that comes with it, there's absolutely nothing wrong with calling your gynae if the pain is getting stronger or if you need reassurance before Tuesday. If you develop bleeding, severe cramps, dizziness, or the pain becomes intense, do get checked sooner. For now, try to rest, stay hydrated, and monitor the symptoms. Many mums experience back aches in the first trimester and go on to have perfectly healthy pregnancies. Hoping Tuesday's scan brings you some peace of mind 🤍

small jelly like blob of brown mucus

Hi hi has anyone experienced small jelly-like blob of brown mucus discharge at around 11-12 weeks and is it normal ?

Yup, normal. Brown discharge can sometimes happen in early pregnancy and is often just old blood making its way out, especially around 11-12 weeks. A small jelly-like blob could also be mixed with normal pregnancy discharge. If it stays light and brown and you’re not having cramps or heavy bleeding, it’s usually less concerning. But if you start getting bright red bleeding, stronger cramps, dizziness, or the discharge becomes heavier, do contact your doctor or go to A&E for advice. If you're worried, no harm giving your gynae a quick call too for peace of mind ❤️
