Ortho doctor reco

The sharp twist of my ankle instantly made me protectively clutch my seven-month pregnant belly, a stark and painful reminder of how loose my ligaments have become due to pregnancy hormones. With the joint now swollen and purple, my usual instinct to grab standard anti-inflammatories is out of the question, leaving me relying solely on elevation and paracetamol. Given the extra weight and limited medication options, should I have this clinically evaluated by an orthopaedic specialist, or is standard home rest sufficient to ensure both my recovery and the baby's safety?

During my pregnancy, I had a nasty trip on the pavement and twisted my ankle terribly. Because our ligaments get so loose from the hormones, the injury was actually much worse than a normal sprain. Like you, I was terrified for the baby and completely lost on what medicine I could safely take. Resting at home helps, but getting a proper clinical check-up gave me so much peace of mind. I went to see my doctor, Dr Alan Cheung, who was absolutely brilliant at managing the injury safely without risking the pregnancy. It is definitely worth having a professional look at it just to be safe!

IVF Cycle Question

what was the most unexpected emotional during the wait (the time between the embryo transfer and the pregnancy test), and what is the one piece of advice or coping strategy you wish someone had given you before you started? #askmommies #ivfcommunity

for me, it's important to remember it doesn't always succeed on the first try, and sometimes you have to try again. i know many people who had positive outcomes, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with staying hopeful. but at the same time, its good to prepare yourself for the possibility that it may take more than one cycle. it can really take a mental and emotional toll, so having a good support system makes a big difference.. :) ihope ive answered your question

Pelvic Pain at 35 weeks

Im at my 35 weeks and having pelvic pain on the right side only..the pain is more intense when getting up, turning around when lying down, bending and walking.. Doctor said its normal cause of baby weight. Its very hard to move around. Should i be worried?

Try to wear a maternity belt. It helped me alot during my third trimester, especially during my work which demands alot of physical activities.

Have you tried to use feminine wash? Try to use one with probiotics and keep that area clean. You can’t use normal soap cause our ph for down there is different!

Early Pregnancy Feels Like?

Hi mummies! What does early pregnancy feels like? Do you crave more or don’t feel like eating? Do you feel sleepy ALL THE TIME? Do you feel nausea but don’t actually vomit? Should we be eating (picking the right food) and restricting (those we should not eat)?

i feel nothing during first trimester… but i know a lot of moms who struggled to even eat food. even the appetite is very different to before they were pregnant 😂
