Hi ladies,
Seems like i hv eaten alot of things which I shd not be eating..
Hv eaten many pineapple tarts before tested +ve. Then yesterday, Lou Hei with some frds and ate the raw fish. Also ate sushi, although i avoided those with raw fish, but i ate a couple with fish roe. In between, i ate ice cream, watermelon, shark's fins..Oh no, so guilty..
From tonite onwards, must be guai guai liao, only keep to those "safe" food.

Is anyone of you here on other kinds of supplements other than the multi vits and folic given by gynae? For example, calcium pills, DHA/fish oil pills etc?
Precious - I think lime juice shld be ok....its rich in vitamin c isn't it? I have craving for that tooo...with curry fish head!
Lili - fishes that we cannot eat include shark, salmon, tuna and macakerel...they are considered deep sea fishes plus they eat other fishes as food..so mercury content is higher.
For sugarcane drink, i read before that it is considered dirty. Most of the time, sugar cane drinks are sold at those hawker stalls and the sugar canes are usually placed on the dirty floor. Because the sugar cane can absorb the dirt, when the juice is grinded, the dirt gets grinded too...plus some hawker stall have cats, rats and other pests that "visit" their stalls at night...then they urinated etc on the floor, the sugar cane absorb the urine which makes it not edible at all!! So i have never been a fan of sugar cane drinks, even before i was preggers.

I am eating Goldmind's DHA from GNC...it is the food (algae marine) that fishes eat in order to produce DHA...so its not extracted from the fish meat itself which is better because fish meat has mercury content...but quite ex leh..$70 per bottle..if member then got 10% discount....

Hi
CH, I don't have MS as well. In fact, I don't have much signs of pregnancy except I get hungry more easily and I tend to go for spicy food. I do get a bit worried sometimes, wonder if my pregnancy is okay 'cos no sign of showing. However, my pregnancy with my no 1 also no MS, so this round, I don't feel as scared as my 1st round.
Diane, I'm on Vitamin B Complex besides folic acid. Have been taking it for a long time and since gynae is okay with me continuing with it, I just continue with it.

Will took neurogain also. Just bought it yesterday at Unity pharmacy, i think around $34 plus for 1 month supply (30 pills). They say neurogain should be commonly available at pharmacy.
Chris, from my gynae. I think normal pharmacies will sell. its abt 30sgd per bottle.
I m not sure if crabs and prawns are ok. but i still eat crab but i stopped prawns.
Durian, too BU now. try to hang on till after 4mths. Even Korean Ginseng or Ginseng after 4 mths. Birdnest after 7mths.
Coconut juices when abt 8.5mths.
I m nt sure if this works for everyone, but some of my friends and myself proven that eating beef, baby has more hair.

Me just had sugarcane drink yesterday. Why cannot take sugarcane drink huh?
I also love to eat kangkong esp with sambal chilli. During my 1st pregnancy, I always eat this veg until my frens told me kangkong can cause muscle cramp easily. I guess that was the reason why i always had leg cramps duing my 2nd and 3rd trimester. Now with my 2nd one, i must guai guai liao.
I also heard pple said it is better not to take 'cooling' food and 'bu' during the first five months of the pregnancy.
Dont know why for the whole day, my tummy feel very bloated leh... for the past 2 weeks, i was always feeling hungry easily but today only took breakfast (veg bee hoon) and feel very 'full' liao. Only took biscuits for lunch.
Going for gyane appt tomorrow evening. Hope everything will go well for me.

Hi Ladies,
Gd Morning! I've not come into the Forum for many days.
I'll be going for my first gynae appointment next morning afternoon (finally this day has come). Am very nervous and excited. Hopefully can see/hear something lor.
Jus wanna ask whether you gals have break your preg news to your boss/colleagues or frens even though have not cross the 1 trimester? Cos i understand some people are "pang tang" and will only tell after the 1st trimester. For myself, ive not tell yet cos i want to get confirmation of my preg from my gynae first.

Linda: I think u can let a few of ur close colleagues know so that they can look after u in office. As for boss, think it's up to ur workload i guess. If ur workload is heavy n will get stressed i also think it's better to let ur boss knows so that he won't stress u too much.
