Crystal,
Yes, we still can take ginger but moderate, breastfeed cannot take too much. Hai, her own confinement is almost 30 decades or more liao. People saying that their whoever whoever drank 7 bottles of DOM blah blah blah... I listen liao also sian! Breastfeeding, we got to brew the DOM/rice wine till the alcohol gone. Ah boh, alcohol will go to bb. Ya, bb sleeps like a log. LOLZ...
My first confinement was a dread, my MIL ask the CL to add in alot of ginger and rice wine. Made me no appetite, later fell sick. This time round, I told my MIL that I am not going to eat alot of ginger and rice wine liao cos most important I got to have good appetite, cooking those that I detest makes me no appetite then no point doing confinement liao. She kept quiet. Think she saw me falling sick then so she cannot do anything liao. By the way, I don't detest ginger and rice wine. I love rice wine. I detest it when during confinement they simply pour into dishes like don't need money.
