Watashi,
Wa, u going to accompany ur hb to IT fair, very crowded lei, u have to be careful, okie...

Glad tt ur bb is doing well... my detail scan is on 23 Mar, wonder how much my bb weigh as well... kee kee
 
ting - keke.. enjoy ur cuise!

watashi - tt's great to hear.. =) wat does ur hb wanna get frm IT fair? my hb now says bb fairs come before IT fairs! kekeke..
 
jenn, hopefully tmr afternoon wun be so crowded lor. he say if really too crowded then he will go in alone, i go lar kopi wait for him.

caitlyn, IT fair cannot go on sat..will be too crowded. he wans to go and see the new PS3 and we r considering to get a laptop.. so going to see if theres any good buy.
wats yr bb weight @ wk 20? i feel my bb is a little on the small side...
 
ting,
enjoy your cruise.

watashi,
glad that your bb is growing well and you can fan xin leow.

next sat gg to visit my gynae, but he have not mentioned to me abt the detailed scan leh!
 
btw, any of you considered cord bank? my preggie colleague was asking and say that she can get discounted one time registration at $600 - $650 and $50 off for the annual fee.
 
daphne,
initially tot that quite ex.
but my mil and aunty have been telling me the usefulness. just in case next time really need it but dun have.
so now gg to find out more and consider and discuss with my hb again.
 
Linda,
TT day when i am in wk 16, gynae already fix the date for my detail scan in wk 20, perharps u can check with your gynae again...

Daphne,
Ya, cos the original registration is $1,100, and annual fee is $250, if sign up during promotion, the fee is $650 which include 1st year free annual fee. However, do u know tt stemcord can oso reject ur cord if they found tt the cord dun have enough cell... and they will refund u only 50% !!!
 
watashi - i can't remember my bb's wt.. but i think also ard e same wt as ur bb.. my bb is ard e 50th percentile based on e graphs my gynae showed me.. but like my gynae says, it's normal for us to have smaller babies coz we're small-sized... small bb also mean easier delivery.. so am hoping my bb wun be big..
 
jenn is it? actually there's 2 school of thoughts to this. my colleague whose FIL is a GP says that it's no use cos even if we store the cord, we may not have the technology here when really needed and even so, the cost of using the cord may be too high too.
The other school of thoughts is that it acts as a form of insurance....
 
linda, maybe yr gynea is doing the scan personally tats y din tell u?.. for my case, i was refered to another consultant gynea for the scanning.

Daphne, whens yr detailed scan? confirmed will be able to know gender .. my boy open his leg big big & stick out his little birdie high high..

hb & i still considering on the cordbank.. recv some brochures from cordlife last wk, seems good but not sure if its worth the $$.
 
Daphne,
Ya, cos i had went to make enquiry during the suntec fair, hence me and hb give up the tots of storing bb cord, further my red blood cell is oso not enough, hence not confidence if the cord got enough cell boh... decide to invest on bb health insurance instead which will be useful for future hospitalisation bills.
 
jenn,
i think maybe my detailed scan will be at Mt E, maybe just go downstair only, that's y, my gynae never mentioned to me bah.

btw, you have check out on the stem cord already?
is it true that they will keep the cord forever or is there a time frame that they will keep?
 
Watashi,
If u consider to store ur bb cord, i can advise u tt stemcord is better, cos they will divide the cord into 4 test tube , so if anything happen to the bb, they will use 1 test tube, remaining with 3 test tube to use.

For cordbank, the cord is stored as a whole, so once used, the other cord cant be stored anymore, have to discard away.
 
Linda,
Yes, they will keep the cord forever, the ownership will be trasfer from the parents to the child when the child reach 21 years old.
 
watashi,
maybe hor!! cos his clinic very big. maybe he has the equipment and do the scan himself.

jenn,
thanks for the info.
ok, i will discuss with my hb again.
 
Linda,
No problem... But me and hb decide not to go for it liew. Berry oso didnt store kieran's cord

Another point, if u sign up now with stemcord, u have to make full payment by 31 May 2007. Stemcord will provide u with the necessary bottles and letter, and u have to put the stuff inside ur hospital bag when u admit to hospital.
And stemcord will inform ur gynae to collect ur cord after u delivered.
 
MTBs,

Just my 2cents worth. I stock up a lot of rompers for my son. Cos normally, you carry the baby, the shirt starts rolling up and baby stomach gets exposed, easy to catch a chill... But for rompers, no such problems.
 
ting - can i find out how much u paid for ur cruise ah? it's a weekend cruise is it? i very tempted to see if i can squeeze money frm anywhere to go for a short trip..

watashi - hv u managed ur hb to go on a short trip?
 
caitlyn, sad to say no. he against me leaving the comfort of home & sg. keep saying wat if i dun feel well or sick when oseas how?... he really strictly follow my gynea's instruction, dun travel unless really necessary.

now i considering to book a hotel stay in sentosa next to celebrate anniversary...
 
jenn, she's those very cautious type lor, she say u will not know wat will happen, pregnancy is very vulnerable. better dun take the risk unless really neccessary.
 
caitlyn- the cruise is $417 per pax (include seaport tax of $79). it's reali bo hua lah cos only 3D2N (depart spore on fri nite n bk on sun 11am) but my hb nvr go cruise b4 n since difficult for me to take lv durin this mar hols so we decide to jus go for it. but the gd thing is everything is included liao, food, entertainment. n my fren who jus went says reali not bad, the ship is huge n nice! hee
 
watashi - tt's wat i thinking also.. if cannot go overseas, maybe just book a hotel stay lor.. hee..

ting - 417 quite cheap lehz.. tt time i went ard 500+.. i lurve to go for cruise.. just laze ard and eat non stop...

just stepped on e weighing scale.. 50kg! gosh.. think i really putting on way too much wt..
 
ask yall hor, as yall know women can have pre-screening before pregnancy, and sometimes they have fibroids or even cysts. Is it really nec to go for ops before trying for bb?
 
Jenn, no lah, JC is fine.. totally clear.. just that when we went thru the screening for JC, our gynae told us such things.. so heng heng for us lor..

Anyway for updates, we may go thru IVF to double chances of twins..
 
caitlyn- keke.. i tot it wil be nice for jus a short getaway! jus hope dun put on wt after 3 days! haha

sdl- glad to hear jc's chk up is ok. cos she msg me abt the scan n mentioned tat hers was not ok. i tot wat hapen but din ask..
