Nice to meet a Toronto expectant mom here! Have you decided to see which doctor?
Are you taking Materna (vitamin supplement)? If you can't eat meat, you have to eat other things to get the same nutrients, like pea, cheese, milk, egg, etc.
Try to eat crackers to reduce the nauseas. It works for me!
I still use microwave to heat up the food, but I will stay away from the microwave and wait at least 10 second then take out the food. Because it is healthier than buying fast food or eating from the restaurant.
Yesterday, I heard a news from a friend who is due in July... She has miscarriage. She found out while having the first ultrasound check up in 12 week. That makes me worry now. I am having stomacheache (feel like having dierrea) these few days, but I won't see the doctor next Wednesday. Do anyone have the similar experience?

i go to private dr. and government hospital both. I still early for check it so i can not tell you my bb's info.. why dont you go to government hospital for premature check? that's free for it.
Thanks for the tips. I am seeing Dr. Man Fan Ho in North York. I have been taking just Folic Acid, when I saw him at 5 weeks, he said not yet, probably in a month's time, then I should start the Materna.
I have experience some cramp, pain too, with a bit of spotting couple of weeks ago.... I was told as long as the spotting is brownish and not bright red, it's ok. My sister told me whenever I don't feel well, put my feet up. I have been following her advice.
PoohPoohMaMa,
I am so excited, we are seeing the same doctor!! My next appointment is next week too, on Thursday. He is good, he delivered my sister's baby and he is highly recommended by my other friends. He is my ob/gyn doctor, I used to see him before my infertility treatment. I guess when I called them that I was pregnant naturally and I was very scared and wanted to see him right away just to make sure things were fine, they were nice enough to fit me in early.
Yeah, you too, you have to be very careful too, it's so slippery. I just hope the weather will get better real soon.
