Hello! 8.5 weeks as of today! due Jan 27 09. went for first scan yesterday and it was interesting!
still overwhelmed by the number of things to prepare for the pregnancy, birth, baby etc! hospitals, c-section vs natural birth?, anti stretch marks oils etc, and they are not even in order or sequence! everytime, i read geobaby, it's something new..
Talk to u all soon!

Hi all - I'm due first week of Feb '09. I'm new to Hong Kong, arrived 3 weeks ago, and found out I was expecting (our first) 2 weeks ago - really excited but a lot to figure out and would love to be in touch with some other people in a similar situation...

Hi, I am due in Feb 09 too. both my hubby and I are very excited about having our first baby.

Having been living in HK for many years, Dink, if you need any help, pls feel free to email me..

Thanks HJB, that's really kind of you, next time I get stuck I will get in touch! At the moment we are mainly trying to work out where would be a good place for us to live with a baby - where do you guys all live, would you recommend it?

hi everyone! there's so many of us due either jan or feb. and it seems most are expecting our 1st - so exciting!

yes, there's so much to learn and so much to prepare! i've been reading "what to expect..." and "mayo clinic..." and visiting every single baby website. i also picked up stretch mark cream yesterday - clarins, for those interested, a friend swears by it.

dink - welcome to hk! please feel free to post any questions and we would be glad to offer any advice we can.

i'm with dr. doo and planning to give birth at matilda. have you all figured out your doctors & hospitals yet?

we currently live in mid-levels and love it. it's close to hubby's office in central, we have shuttle bus service, great views of the harbor & close to all the soho restaurants. but once the baby arrives, we're thinking of moving somewhere more open - perhaps bel-air on the peak.

where have you looked so far?

Hi Hi,
I am with philip ho, and planning on Canossa, but still on waitlist..i know..can't believe the hospital is already full for Jan 09...
beauti conscious me, is already using the elemis anti-stretch mark oil...but seem a little too thick for the summer.

readings-wise, I have not been too diligent on this..any recommended books?

We are currently staying in Mid Levels, and plan to stay put since husband dont really like to commute too much!

Hi All - Completely by chance I ended up with Doctor Patrick Chan, who has a fantastic manner so I am really pleased. We've decided to book into the Matilda, I went and had a look this week and really liked it.

Stretch mark cream hey! Good planning ahead. I haven't got onyo that yet but I am surprised by how much changes even this early on in a pregnancy (e.g. the hideous support bras I am now wearing, yuk!) - I guess I didn't read much of the pregnancy book beyond how to conceive...

We have looked at heaps of flats in Midlevels and would love to stay there but unfortunately our budget doesn't stretch to something that nice in that area - I think we have now settled on Belcher's. A small flat, but lovely view, great facilities and relatively convenient...
