i've been craving for spicy food leh.. dun knw is it ok to eat spicy food for most meals?
coz i notice that i cant finish the food if its not spicy leh..
 
bean,

i heard Honey can contain a type of bacteria so better be avoided during pregnancy and babies under one year.
 
you lucky gals...

i love spicy food... especially chilli padi... yum yum... but i can't eat them... cos it is extra horrid when i puke...
 
Adv_sport,
Thanks.. just went pee pee.. nothing
happy.gif
hopefully it's one off thingy coz too tired..

U all have good cravings ler.. I have a lot of cravings, but when it comes to meal time, those food turn me off.
last sat we went to eat "soup restaurant" its one of my fave, but when all the food came, i was so turned off..
Normally i can fin 2 bowl of rice, this time round only half a bowl
sad.gif


Eating McD feels like puking, when i come to think of food i really feel super yucky ler!
Stress, awhile more is dinner time, against the yuckiness is back
sad.gif


During eating i can eat (with the disgusted feeling), but the feelin gbefore and after meal is so horrible.. how i wish i have my appetite back!
I have always been a big eater, luckily i dun put on weight even tho i eat a lot hehe..

I will cook maggie mee later..
 
pearly - icyen comment r correct, honey contains a type of bacteria so not encourage cos bb still developing n babies under 1 can't take
 
Hi may!
yes, we are having the same EDD, but this is my 1st pregnancy so still no experienced. heh heh heh.
I am having MS for the whole day. Felt like puking. It is really an uncomfortable feeling.
 
rc_cola, gd to hear that it's a one-off thingy
happy.gif
yah, i also wish to have my appetite back -- used to enjoy trying out new food places!

bean, my once a mth = 1x KFC, 1x MacD, 1x MOS burger etc. hahaha...

yeah, i love hot, sour & spicy food -- able to eat more
happy.gif
hubby try to tone down on spicy food as MIL said mayb too "excited" for developing bb *wacko*

this is our #1, so hear so many "advices"... anyway, try to take everything in moderation should be ok
happy.gif
 
poohwei! ahh.. pepper lunch is nice! hmm.. maybe ask hubby to bring mi there for lunch or dinner tml.. hehe...

happy.gif

rc_cola

Icyen, i used to add ribena into my water... but its sourish when i puked... sigh... i just wana drink something that will taste sweet when i puke...
 
Re: MS
last week only MS between 10-11am plus and 4-5pm plus.
But today becames MS(threw up very bitter liquid) before breakfast, before lunch and after lunch (threw up very bitter liquid). feeling giddy too. i have been taking 2 Maxolon pills (for giddy/vomit)prescribed by gynae per day. only help a little bit. feel so miserable ...
sad.gif
 
Hi rc_cola,

I am the opposite. I have been taking food or water with strong taste. Cant't really take plain water. that's why I have been taking a lot of sweets, curry, salted fish, etc..
 
Pearl,
U so cute, haha how can we find puke that taste sweet.. puke is sth that has been halfway indigested tog with our digestive acid, thats y sourish ahahahhaha
Cant help but laugh, u want to puke sth sweet hehehehehe
happy.gif
 
re: pepper. I like old chang kee pepper puffs. but when took while preg - wah my ears burn for a while. so odd coz I norm take spicy chilli foods. I avoided strong pepper after that.

buddy
same here. cant take plain water. have to taken flavoured drinks. foods ? no choice take wats at home. but most of the time cant eat much tho. just no appetite or dun like to eat. wonder if affects e baby ?

joyce
I remember when have #1 baby, baby keep crying then worry no enuf milk so end up formulae. any advice ?

not sure if u have replied me - I took course for Ginny but #1 had emergency c-section due to high bld pressure. so didnt experience labour at all. do u thnk doula is necessary or just rely on class notes/practise is ok ? thx
 
cola,
i did that for my 1st 2 preggy.. my MS is usually bad... will puke few times a day (5-6 times)... therefore, before i puke, will drink sweet stuff first... then quickly run to the toilet. the sweet liquid (last in first out) will come out first followed by whatever... but at least its still sweet first...

cant help it... cos puke too much.. have to think of ways to ease the process
 
Daec

Ya previously i also like that my MIL keeps saying bb is hungry coz not enough milk bla bla.. haiz so she did feed her with some formula.. but along the way, every 2 hour i feed her during the day, she didnt really cry that much already.. guess she has enough feed hahaha
 
me also suddenly like ribena or those got gas inside.. so instead of drinking coca cola i buy tonic water n add ribena to get gassy drink
 
I feel that my MS getting worse also esp at night during dinner.
sad.gif
See the food also sian....haiz.

I am one more week plus to 12 weeks,hope I would get better!
 
hello!

Just finished reading the posts! Hey, we are all in similar situations! i LOVE fast food (esp MOS burger), spicy, korean food now! As for gassy drink, i too love it but i dun wana have too much sugar so i asked my hubby to buy back 4 bottles of Perrier water! Every nite i will take half a glass when i reach home! Shioko man!! haha
happy.gif


So i think the place we shd go for our 1st gathering in Dec is Billy bombers? love the oreo milkshake and the burgers there! haha :D

May - Hope Prof Tay says everything is ok for u tomorrow...

Good morning, MTBs. Hi May, hope that everything is ok during your check up later.

RE: MS
I vomitted again yesterday night after I get out of the car. But I still managed to take some salad for dinner after that though I have no appetite. I always have bloated feeling during the day and sometimes when I burped, I feel like vomitting. But luckily, I vomited at home for these four times. I have this phobia that I will vomit in the office or some public place so I always bring a plastic bag with me just in case. I am counting down to 2nd tri. Hopefully all will be better by then. Hope that all our MS will get better soon.

RE: Craving
I don't have much craving. In fact, every night think of dinner sian - don't know what to eat. Even if I suddenly think of some food, I somehow know that it won't taste as nice as expected, so sian also.
 
mornin mummies

re:vomit
even though my sickness over oredi... but still cant stand some weird smell.... yday took bus home.... the smell make me feel like vomitting... control control control until home quickly rush to toilet vomit.. yuckzz
 
Good morning ladies! Thread is moving so fast!

Re: MS
I think all our MS-es are starting to kick in hard. I'm glad that i dun puke but i am super tired ALL the time! like the terrible headache yesterday.. No mood to do anything at all. And i have a weird weird taste in my mouth after every meal. need to eat sweets (Fox sweets are really good!) or sour plums to get rid of the taste. yikes.. For those who are puking often, rem to have small meals.. make sure you can replace what u puke out..

Re: Cravings
Like Baby May, i dun have much cravings but i do wanna eat fast food!! I wanna eat MOS burger!!! So far, i'm able to control it (cos too tired to go and buy) but chilli is a must-have for every meal! I can't seem to stomach anything without chilli or (at the very least) soya sauce..

Re: Milk
I read that some of u said cannot drink low fat milk? How about those packet cereals which says low fat? i'm taking this 3-in-1 Nestle oats cereal every morning and it says low fat. can or not? And are many of you drinking milk for mummy? which is good ah?

Re: Duphaston
Anyone taking this? are there any side effects to taking this? my gynae prescribed this to me when i told him i got bit of brown discharge. can i stop taking once everything is back to normal?
 
NLB is giving out Baby Journal kit for mothers/ MTBs. I have just collected mine last weekend. Those who are interested can call NLB up to check which branch still have stock.

RE: milk
Hi RC_cola, thanks for the advice. Hmm ... ... Maybe I should give Anlene to someone else.

RE: Duphaston
Hi Tiny_M, I am not taking, but I heard that it is used to stabilise the pregnancy. You should be able to stop upon gynae's advice when everything is ok.
 
good morning mummies

Re MS
Just wonder when it will stop. cant stand the headache, giddiness and the heart burnt feeling. perhaps i was lucky that i dont puke ... phew

Re Cravings
i crave for food but due to my gastric flu, i cant eat full meal but have to break into small meals. somehow, it makes me loose my appetite. sianzzzz

Re : Milk
Hi Tiny, it's okie bah for those cereal and oaks. my understanding the fat does helps to develope baby's brian. duno what they call that but it does help with their developement. guess can avoid fats .. but not totally bah

Re Duphaston
Not mee ... but i guess if it's from gynae it should be safe ... dont worry too much ya
 
Morning mummies,
I've those mucus + blood again after dinner last nite..
sad.gif
called up my gynae, he said if no pain should be okay, asked me to go for a check today..
Will go there around lunch time..

Hopefully everything is okay.. i have faith in my baby!!

M/s kicks in early this morning until now
sad.gif
 
morning mommies

RE MS

RE Cravings
ve but normally if i stress, fast food seems to make me feels better :p
been having craving for pizza but still controlling cos 1 person eat pizza abit boring (hubby refused to accompany)
sad.gif


RE: Milk
drink hi calcium farmland milk for morn, night suppose to drink enfamum but stop going to start in 2nd trimester

RE: Duphaston
I'm not taking this so can't comment but like Noi said, if gyne prescribe should be ok, u should find out from yr gyne if there is any side effect etc.
 
rc_cola: no worries if no pain.. since goign to see gyne will put yr mind at ease.
Initially, me looking forward to next wk for my checkup but now ve to postpone till mth end due to work.. so sian!!!
 
Thanks baby may, noi and jen for your comments. I think i better not worry so much and just follow what gynae says.

jen: I crave for pizza too!!! i wanna eat the crust, the sauce, the cheese and all the toppings! and add more cheese! but like u, hubby dun like so no pizza so far. *ssad*

rc_cola: must take care wor.. no pain should be fine. hope ur checkup will go well. jia you!

Hi mommies

Thanks for the replies on down syndrome test.

I never experience MS during my #1 with my girl. However for this #2, I feel like having some gas from my stomach and couldn't burp, very uncomfortable. It happen after I took some food throughout the day. Hunger strikes rather often too. I banned Old Chang Kee and chocolate during my #1 but now I'll buy finger foods from Old Chang Kee at least once a week! My tummy is already quite big like 4 months pregnant. I'll only let my colleagues know after 12th week but my boss was informed due to my regular checkup.

RE: Duphaston
I've been taking this since 4th week and gynae recommended that I should take until 12th week to stabilise the pregnancy (an tai). Very expensive, about $1.20 per tablet to take twice a day.

Re: Milk
I've been taking Ensure Life before my pregnancy and Abbott nutritionist actually told me that I can continue when I'm pregnant.

Re: Breastfeeding
Didn't manage to breastfeed my #1 although used a mini electric medela pump loan from a cousin. Every time only managed to pump out 10 - 30ml, tried for 4 weeks. My girl refused to latch. Went to see Doris Fok and came home realised that my menses come, continued to forced my girl to latch until I gave up. I hope to breastfeed successfully for my #2. Will want to get a good pump end of this year.
 
<font face="Comic Sans MS,Tahoma"> adv_sports,
thanks!

<font face="Comic Sans MS,Tahoma"> i remember some of u mentioned abt cordlife. yest i've inquired abt this. 1st yr $1400. Subq yr $250. If u sign up for FBI/SBI, you are entitle $450 off. so instead of paying $1400, u will pay $1200. and subq yr paying $200 instead of $250. hopes this info helps. =)</font>.
