        The point is - if you have amnio, what are you going to do if the results are not what you want to hear?


        I did not do any tests for our 4th baby (nor our earlier 3 either), but I went one step further. I requested for no scans as well.

        Wah Phankao,
        You very brave leh!
        :celebrate:

        Why Brave??? Takes more effort to go for all these tests, leh. Going to see OB/GYN already a very *sian* thing for me. i would stretch my visits so that i see him only every 6 weeks or so.

          Thank you for your response DesertWind.
          My story akin to TVB serial. When I was 19, I was going to marry my sweetheart, who was my first boyfriend and twelve years older but it didn't work out. I was with my second bf for ten years but he never proposed. I was single for five years until I met DH, who was my third and last bf.
          I've had high profile jobs but I'm very \"xiao nu ren\". I love nothing more than taking care of DH and DD. Damn unambitious hor?
          I remember my ex-boss used to counsel me, saying:\" Duriz I want to groom you to be the next CEO and take over when I retire.\" But I just look at him pointblank and said, \"I don't want to be CEO. I want to be CEO's wife\" πŸ˜‰

              Hi Hi! πŸ˜‰
              Wah....high profile jobs yet \"xiao nu ren\".... :idea: a bit hard for me to reconcilie leh?
              Can I say that on the outside you \"chiong\" up the ladder like very ambitious but inside actually you just want to get married and have some kids? πŸ˜‰ Ah! That I can understand! Even though most women work very hard but actually all dream to marry a rich man and then stay at home as \"Tai Tai\"! :hi5:

                  I am also fine if children call me auntie. But if people in their 20s start to call me auntie, then it is a little depressing 😞


                  Aww, no lah.
                  I'm positive you're still young and beautiful.
                  Young people nowadays very silly, don't take it to heart.
                  They really only know how to \"interact\" with PCs and HPs, not real people. Thus their social interaction skills very limited.
                  I'm 41 and rightfully an aunty πŸ™‚

                  Thanks for your comforting words πŸ˜‰

                    Just have to expect 4 big candles on the birthday cake hahaha

                    I thought I will have my menopause soon, asked my gynae and she said its only when I am over 50 years old :oops:

                    Let me tell you all one joke.

                    A few years ago, I noticed that my period was very short and light. that continues for a few months. Short and light means i prob only use one pad and that's it. Was a bit worried so I went to a Chinese Medicine Hall and ask if I should take something to 调理. Thought maybe I should take 白净丸. When I descripe my conditions to the sales assistant, she told me i have to take the special 白净丸, I asked why, she told me that based on my description, I'm most likely having menopause liao. I was so :shock: :shock: ! Told her I'm mid thirties and I asked her if she has heard of anyone like that. She told me in straight and serious tone - yes, nowadays women are getting their menopause earlier and earlier. So its no surprise that you are having menopause... :!: :!: I was a bit 😐 alarmed, and immediately called my gynae to see him the next day. When I told the gynae my conditions and asked if I'm having my menopause, he :rotflmao: and assured me with tears in his eyes that I'm definately not having menopause. Just that the lining is thin and I may not be able to have kids anymore. :roll: :roll:

                    3 months later, I'm pregnant again... :roll: :roll: 😐 😐


                    Some sales people like to use \"scare tactics\".

                    Once I went for a facial, the staff said my skin looked very bad and asked if I had been ill. Her purpose was to make me sign up for the expensive package. I was so angry I never went back to that shop.

                      When I had my second boy, I was also at the age where the amnio test is recommended. I chose not to take the test because I was scared of the needles !
