Oct Expectant Buddies

[daisy]

hello there,

in due around oct 1-4
i have teeth problem now, my dentist says he can pull out by 4th month, but he cant take xray so he dont know how long the root was. and since it was the wisdom tooth, it is a major operation. i have to ask my doc about that on the 22. i dont want to risk losing my baby so i think i just have to suffer till baby is born.

Hi Daisy,

I have gingivitis problem as early as 6 weeks, and now there's another swollen gum somewhere that i need to go back to the dentist. (but i'm avoiding it and gargles with salt cure only, so far getting better)

I asked him about dental procedure last time, and he said it IS OKAY to do it, even xray and anaesthesia, though they avoid it if necessary. He said he has done numerous root canal with preggies even with his preggy wife and it is okay if it really hurts badly. Very safe.

I was scared too to have my gums cleaned few weeks back, but i rather have it treated early and not bear the pain.

If i go back again, i'll ask about extraction. He also said that most preggy women suffer tooth problem esp on the 2nd trimester.

Take care.

hi snoopy,

Looks like you're quite busy too. Too bad I have to work half days on saturdays too, but no long haul travel, just fighting MTR crowds in rush hour, and occasionally working through the night. That's especially hard... good to know I have some support out there... =)

Hello,
I'm due on October 23rd with my second baby. The first one was born in HK, but this one will be born in Canada. I feel nauseous all day long and very exhausted, but I think it's because I am up with my one year old daughter early in the morning. At least she takes 2 naps still and so do I! If you have any questions about first time births I can let you know my experiences from last time. Hong Kong is a great place to have a baby!
Take care and hope you all feel great soon if you don't already!

I'm sorry to share some bad news with this group. I found out from my appointment (8th wk) yesterday that my baby stopped growing so I had indeed performed D&C this morning in the hospital and now resting at home. Just want to say goodbye to you all though it's only been a short time that we know each other. I wish all of you to have healthy babies coming:gl: .

Dear Snoopy,
Oh I'm so very sorry to hear of your news. I can imagine how you must be feeling. Please hang in there. At least you know you can fall pregnant. Take care,

Hi Snoopy,

As XOX said, at least you know that you are "normal" and can be pregnant again, it means that your fallopian tube are not blocked. The most important thing is not blaming yourself for what happened.

Hang in there, it will come in God's time.
