Anmum Materna

I started drinking Anmum Materna last night - for the first time. I've been taking the supplements from the clinic, I wonder if I should still continue my supplements. Will have to ask Dr F on Wednesday.

The drink is like a protein drink that keeps you SO FULL throughout the night and after breakfast. There is no way I can eat anything else after I drink the milk. Oh btw, it's in Chocolate flavour :) I had one this morning, and it lasted me until lunch. By lunch time came, I'm still so full. In fact, I couldn't finish my lunch! I've never "couldn't finish my lunch". I'm normally famish by lunch but today is exceptional. I had to share my lunch with hubby. I wonder if this is good... hmmm... It's almost like a meal replacement.

After the breakfast milk, I didn't have ANYTHING at all. Last night too, I didn't have any munchy. I normally munch a bit around mid-night (bad habit!). Let's give it a few more times and see if this is how it should be.

Maternity Clothings

I know I'm way to early to look for any maternity clothings, but I can't help it! I'm so excited that I get to do a wardrobe stock up with all new clothes! Well, you see... I'm not skinny build, and my tummy is so hard - most likely from the constipation and indigestion, so I already have a bulging stomach. Well... ok ok, to be honest, I already have a tummy before this. So, now I really got an excuse to get new clothes!

First and foremost, I need leggings - I think. And I read about the maternity waistband, which I think it's kinda cool. It's basically worn around your tummy/waist on top of your unzippable pants or jeans! How cool is that! It kinda hold your pants in place. I have lots of slacks that were fitting before, but now, I don't wear them because I didn't want to "tighten" my naturally expanding tummy. Well, ok ok... honestly, I just want to buy something maternity! HAHAHA!

I tried to look online for any good online maternity store in Malaysia, it's kinda hard to find a good one. So far, this one looks quite promising: http://www.babybumpmaternity.com.my. But they use all the skinny girls! >.< It makes me wonder if this will at all fit a real pregnant woman at all!

I shall look more for interesting sites :) I'm not that into forum yet at the moment, I just want to browse these shopping sites to find interesting stuff!

Indigestion

I had the worst indigestion last weekend, one that lasted for more than 8 hours! I probably slept for 2 hours only and for the rest of the time, the pain is just so excruciating pain. But this is all in the name of Wagyu Beef dinner that Sis paid for.

I had 2 chewable tablets of Gaviscon, made myself a warm Milo in the middle of the night, and it was still pointless. So I just let the pain be and tried to catch some sleep.... Lesson learnt: NEVER EAT TOO FULL when you are pregnant.

My first ultrasound scan


We arrived the clinic earlier than usual and Dr F hasn't arrived yet. We waited for about 15 minutes and when I hear Dr F rang the bell, I was so happy.

The scan shows one sac, which I am happy. After such long wait, finally. Dr F showed us the heart beating- it's the cutest moment. I'm surprised I didn't cry! Haha! It was really cool seeing the heart beating for the first time.

The sac is at about 0.4cm at the moment. So happy to at least see one.

Tomorrow is not here soon enough

Tomorrow is my next review with Dr F. I really really hope there will be a ultra scan. I hope to finally meet all of them! Yes, I'm still hoping for all of them - the odds of 1 in 20. I still remember that!

It's strange that since Sunday, I felt nausea only in the evening between 5pm - 8pm. Is it the low blood sugar? Or is it just too exhausting for me for the end of the day? I have no idea! Gotta ask Dr. F tomorrow.

Still no new symptoms?

Hubby is back over the weekend, HOORAY!!! I miss his pampering!

We are due for our next review on Wednesday. I hope there will be a scan :) I'm so excited about seeing Dr F. This Wednesday appointment will hopefully ease my mind because I still have no sure sign of pregnancy symptoms.
  • Constipation - Well, any normal human being will have constipation once in a while right?
  • Nausea - Well, I had it ONCE and it was last night. It was no big deal, there was no vomiting involved, the feeling was like butterflies in my stomach and I thought it would "fly" out of my mouth. But nothing happens.
  • Sore breasts - I had it for a while but I felt that it's less sore/painful compare to a week ago.
  • Tired/Sleepy - Well, I have always been a sleepy head. I think I can sleep the whole day if I want. HAHA... so I don't know if this count.
Other than that, seriously NOTHING at all. Should I be happy for not having anything or should I be worried!

Hubby is away...

I have been relying on Hubby for a few things daily since we started our 2nd IVF.

Every morning, he would make me breakfast and lunch before he goes to work. He even brought me my Cyclogest in the cooler bag so I don't need to walk down the stairs and get it at 11am.

Since we have been having early dinner, I would be hungry by midnight. Hubby would either make me a soup or Milo kept in a flask. Sometimes I get extra treats.

He left Thursday morning to KL after making me breakfast and lunch. And he will only be back on Saturday. So tonight made my own soup- only to be too diluted. Tomorrow, I'm gonna attempt to make my own half-boiled eggs for breakfast. Hubby is very good at it!! Lunch is always simple and easy. I will have ham+cheese sandwich. I had it today and it's pretty pleasing to my taste butt. Or was it because Hubby made it before going away...
