hello girls
I just came back from departmental CNY lunch. had yu sheng, but i had to avoid the raw fish without looking too conspicious. my colleagues knows i'm a sashimi fan, but don't know that i'm preggie yet (intend to announce only after 12 weeks).
i'm also a coffee addict, but gynae say ok, when she was carrying her children, also took one cup a day. think as long as not too excessive, it's alrite..

wah, reenie, give me a five! Sama sama, i like soft drinks and chocolates! But like lib said, us preggies have to be careful of diabeties...
oh now that you mention nutella, i think i will go and buy one bottle later. keke, my chunky skippy npeanut butter spread finish liao.
the pink tablet is given by my gynae, think it's vitamins.
timie, tks for sharing the info on the fluid.
vone, i will keep a lookout for the birdnest.tks

Lib,
i wasn't like that last time! but since my pregnancy, anything sweet is just heaven
i am concerned too about the sugar intake, especially during the later stage of pregnancy....
its good at least you like games, for me, i don't really enjoy playing it.
But after birth, i tell myself must become a pretty mummy again! I hope to maintain a good weight gain, keep a close watch.
Hi ladies,
for bird nest, how often do we take them? i know its good for baby complexion, doesn't seems to know other benefits it carries.

Oppps erowen, i seems to have influence you! I like Skippy too! and it goes well with Nutella. I don't go for those mix type, u know the choc + peanut butter? or strawberry + peanut butter? Another fave spread for me now, its my all time fave, STRAWBERRY jam from hero...hahahaha..
I alternate my bread as well, some days i get plain white bread, some days i get corn bread from Gardenia or fruit grains from Sunshine.

reenie bside taking plain bread, you muz oso start to take wholemeal bread.. for me i hate tat but since having my bb, i start taking wholemeal bread & biscuit, still taste not too bad..
as for bird nest rite, heard from my mil is take on mthly basis.. but for some people they actually can take it on weekly basis, tink is oso depend on your financial... if u tink u can afford taking onweekly basis it shold be harmless cos it neither cool or heaty..
if u know how to make bird nest can buy from any medical halls even like "hock-hwa" is oso good enough.. but if u want those ready made ones got to depend on your sugar preference.. lau-hong-kai oso serves ready-made birdnest, tink one bottle is ard S$150+- u juz have to mix one tsp with your drinks and drink daily.
but if you r taking chinese herb "dong-chong-chao" rite, remember dun take too much cos tat is heaty!!!

hi christina, timie, i'm using the garnier brand at night, think it's called the correction pen, and also the body shop's pimple gel for day, on top of the witch hazel toner water. sometimes i'll also use ice cube to press against the pimple to reduce the redness before putting on the pimple gel.. anything to reduce the redness..hehe... those sold outside should be safe.. just take care not to inhale too much cos some smell quite toxic.. so for nose area i usually apply less.
chocs have caffeine, but not as much as coffee/tea. so generally it's still safe to eat chocs unless u take 1 gigantic bar at a time..
decaff tea is a good idea! but guess without the caffeine it will not serve as a perk-me-up hor...

hi lib, can take dong-chong-chao rite? it's the stick-looking herb tt normally cook with meat?

hi Lib,
know the goodness of wholemeal bread, but i find it rather "rough" texture, as compare to soft white bread
I will try to eat next time. Thanks for the great advice on Bird nest!
did u really make a peanut butter sandwich? haahahah...so cute. hard to resist yeah.
hi Timie,
i don't eat nutella, peanut butter everyday...or jam, i change my breakfast menu everyday....perhaps one day chee chong fan with yam cake, fried beehoon, or sandwich or soonkueh...etc. I got a better appetite in the morning as compare to evening time.

hi Timie,
i think Sunshine softmeal bread is nicer. can try that. AS for Gardenia, i think their wholemeal bread can be rougher. Actually nasi lemak once a while is fine, not too often, as lemak is cooling and high in fats. If you want something less oily, chee chong fan is nice, sweet sauce with chilli, or Swee kueh, those with chay poh on top. Sometimes i smell youtiao from next table, i feel like taking a bite, but the oily feeling puts me off. Fried bee hoon is not that bad, its my fave. Not fried carrot cake though.

i'm currently off my craving for MacD fries... had a small pack yesterday n had difficulty finishing it.... at least i won't worry abt the calories! read that someone posted bb starts to absorb what we eat fr 2nd tri onwards? got to monitor liao...
i like the banana walnut bread from Gardenia. Although the wholemeal bread is rougher, but it tastes v nice when it's spread with butter.. yummy when toasted with butter n sprinkled with sugar... hehe...

Hi ladies, I hv been thinking abt it ytd with hb.. $388 for nuchal scan + blood test and a detailed scan at 20 wk... I did not do this for ds leh.. only had a blood test.. and this oscar test was pretty new though more accurate. Only launched in Oct last yr.. and so coincident right? together with the new law.. and package seems to be only available in tmc and mt. a..both governed by LKY's wifey.. so I forego it la..
These tests are not new actually..some are conducted separately at diff stages.. but now they hv a package and called it oscar..tt's all.
