start to gain weight from 16 weeks, tries to take warm ginger drink in the morning when you awake could you to ease pukes.

Do take more warm milk, folic acid light meals more regularly as pukes make you loss lots of calcium for your teeth (darkening) & folic acid important for baby spinal bifida prevention.


Symptoms vary from each pregnant lady, sometimes start from 1 - 4 mths, some of them pukes thru out pregnancy depends on your diet, those irritates you means your baby doesn't like this food or drinks & causes you to pukes to avoid miscarriage.



hope this is helpful for your information.

Which part of Singapore do you live ? North, South, East or West ? can you assist to specific ?

it's different for every pregnancy. i didn't gain weight until my 2nd tri. in fact i lost weight during my 1st tri due to very bad morning sickness.

Congrats on your pregnancy, ha yes being forgetful is one of the many symtoms i was completely hopless i had to write everything down. I put on weight around the 3 tri but as wheelymate says every pregnant women is different. I never had morning sickness so i can't help you there but i do know that if you eat frequent small meals as poseidon said that will help. I find ginger makes me feel worse and have found (thru friends) that ginger will either work for you or will do the opposite.

Hi Poseidon. i stay in the west. so far no puking yet just the feel of it but nothing came out. but the headache i tell ya damn terrible. i feel like pulling my hair. i took anmum chocolate flavour(i dun drink vanilla) and now its not in favour of me. so im forcing myself to drink at least once a day for the sake of the baby and myself too. but i do feel that im losing weight. somehow i feel lighter..but have weigh myself though

make sure your prenatal vitamin isn't making you more nauseous. Mine would make me puke if I didn't take it on a very full stomach. (I had to eat it at a time when I normally wasn't going to puke - for me lunch.) Each pregnancy is different for the same woman too! I had NO morning sickness with my first one, (except when my prenatal was taken at the wrong time) and with my second, I was nauseous for two months, and would puke my guts as soon as my husband walked through the door!


AS for your headaches, if they are very serious, take tylenol. If you are in distress, your baby is not resting well either. I suffered from severe migraines while pregnant with my second, and took a special medication to help with it. It was approved by both my father (and ob) and his friend who specializes in high risk pregnancies.

I felt like a complete zombie the first trimester, completely out of it. Don't worry, I was really out of sorts as well. This too shall pass! Try to shift your focus from your sickness and remember, your body is working overtime (and then some) creating the building blocks of the new life inside! :)


I'm 18 weeks and just starting to gain weight, I lost weight during the first trimester because of how ill I felt. Best of luck!
