sorry to barge in.
i asked abt Hashima before - the advise was not to take coz it's much more cooling in nature.

I bought concentrated bird's nest for myself cos my friend ate it and her baby had really good skin. So i tot no harm since i am only having 1 teaspoon a day.
Then my MIL saw and told me, bird's nest is useless, only make me pretty but no effect on my baby... Then she let her 5yo eat my bird's nest! I know i sound very selfish but really not happy about it.

autrumn: Ya lo.. cuttlefish.. yummy.. tonight going chinatown to do some CNY shopping.. hope they sell the seaweed cuttlefish.. damn shiok. Hah.. ba kwa cannot eat too much ah.. i also like to eat ba kwa lei. I think I very greedy.. everything also like to eat. haha!!
Sweetkiss: Your MIL is too much lei.. how can she do that? Even if eat le make myself pretty also cannot meh? You buy it with your own money right? If her 5 yr old son wanna eat, ask her to buy la or tell her if she no money, you can buy those cheap bottles one for her son to eat. You are not selfish at all lo.. if i were you, i would continue eating and make myself pretty.

Yup i bought it with my own money... Anyway i sometimes feel that she is not genuinely happy over my preg. I even have a feeling that she is hoping i have a girl cos she dun wan my child to win the favour of the grandparents. So i will purposely tell her i want girl cos i see the way her boy behaves, i am scared of handling boys. But actually i dun have preference. I am very mean hor...

didntn know hiro. more cooling than bird nest. i actually started taking bird nest since abt 2 mths back but only once a week, thereabt lah. although i heard from parentcraft teachers at TMC tat too early start bird nest babies may be more prone to asthma but since i am not taking v regularly i thot perhaps shldnt be issue

Sweetkiss: Since it's you who bought it, then eat it on your own. Dun let your MIL feed them to the boy.. feed the boy also doesn't benefit them. I heard young kids shouldn't eat bird nest.. not good for their body.. i saw it somewhere in the forum. So in fact, maybe your MIL trying to be a cheapskate ends up harming her own son's health.
You are not mean la.. frankly.. human being is like that.. you treat pple well, pple will sure treat you well.. if you treat someone badly, you think the person will still treat you well. There will be such pple but only a handful lo.

How to punch this whole idea into man's brain ah ?

I have very strong feeling over this from my MIL too...

xbeanniex: I always tell my hubby that if he love me and treat me well, i will do that for him too.. but if he treat me badly or do something bad I will make him wish that he was never born in the first place. So it's the same logic. Haha!! Hubby always say i evil.. so i tell him dun make me show my evil side lo.
Sweetkiss: But if she doesn't take care of her BB's health or skin then it's not your problem le ma. If she got no money to buy bird nest, then at least tell you lo.. then you can tell her you would gladly share it with her son. All she have to do is ask nicely.

ecym: cannot lah.. my husby can smell the cuttlefish one lor!! he sure will use my pimples as a weapon say cuttlefish v 'poisonous' my face like tat.. the more i shd avoid! grr...
sweetkiss: dun care abt ur mil, juz cont to eat birdsnest & prove her wrong!
n i tink she is bldy cheapskate, trying to use it as an excuse to feed her own baby.
furthermore she is really afraid your bb will turn out better than the 5yr old devil.
anyways, i also keep on eating spicy food... die lah.. will cuz bb to have rashes? jialat. i muz cut down. but i favour spicy & salty food... hee..

haha! thanks for all ur support! makes me feel so much better to have u guys to "listen" to me. (if i complain to my hubby he sure say i am sensitive & paranoid).
D queen, i also love spicy food but try to cut down in the 3rd trimester, esp. curry. My friend says it will cause jaundice due to the ginger or something. I have a relative who is an indonesian and she is used to super spicy food. Her son had rashes all over during birth too, including groin area.

sweetkiss : I am more worry my bb will behaves like spoilt rotten apple... as all my dogs can behaves better then my MIL's grandkids ma...all kids that side can talk back to parents, grandparents at home at thunder voice de ... but my dogs can respect a person be it is owner or a family member very well ... EG. like to jumping at kids, so my dog walk or leopard crawl n let the kid tummy rub lor... my dog's face will not even face the kid lor.. as i always tell my dogs not everyone like to see ur face hor... so dont need to put ur face right up to another person accept mummy n daddy. hahahaha
i love spicy food too and when i had my first pregnancy, i ate spicy food as usual all the way till birth leh.For this pregnncy too.cannot resist chilli!! haha.
Sweetkiss - ignore ur MIL. Just eat the birdnest. As long as we don eat excessivly, birdnest will do good to both mummy and baby.

sweetkiss: noted! thxthx for ur advice!
will try to cut down on spicy food...
not tat u r sensitive & paranoid lah... it's natural. cuz honestly, ever since me preggers... i also v emo & paranoid.
it's like i feel tat bb is changing my lifestyle.
in the past, im nva short of activities...
i like to go party, drink, & i attend dance classes.
now w bb, i cant do any of these. im confined to gg home straight aft wk. turning into another person.
hence, ive too much time to tink abt silly issues. then the more i tink, the more probs/ worries i get. the more emo i get.. the more i wld cry...
now i try to take thgs easy.... trying to adjust to my 'new' lifestyle.
let's use this forum as an avenue for us to share our joy, our anger... all our emotions!
i honestly feel that eversince ive stepped outta my 'closet' & start participarting in this thread, im a happier gal.
cuz i kno im not the only one facing the issues alone [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

XbeannieX: “all my dogs can behaves better then my MIL's grandkids ma” Hahaha! Omg that means your MIL grandkids must be really naughty! Same as my MIL’s son lor! Once I scolded him for something & he threw the TV remote at me. I pretended to tell him he has hurt me and spoilt the remote. Then he got scared and cry and I kena scolding from my MIL! He always try to get himself out of trouble by lying and crying. Once he injured himself for no reason and he said is caused by my hubby when he didn’t even touch him. But his mum will always stand at his side. U can see how pampered lor. So I will never want my MIL to take care of my kid. Is either she dun take good care or get over-lenient with my child.
Astro gal: Yup I am so going to buy another bottle of bird’s nest today! Hehe.
D Queen: I love reading long posts… In fact I read every new post! Today is Friday, no mood to work. Waiting for time to pass... The first thing I do when I am free at work is to refresh this thread and post! Love u all here too!

Oh ya, speaking of spicy food, I have been craving for Ma-La steamboat since early this week.
Hubby wanna bring me today but I think abit boring for 2 person to eat. I also cant get enough of durians! My parents will buy during weekends when I go back for lunch or dinner. I miss staying with my parents. Esp my mum who is very concerned for me after I got pregnant. Recently I cry at night because I miss them. Maybe is preg hormones also. Haha…

hi ladies, from what i've read and heard, it has still not be proven safe for pregnant ladies to consume alcohol in any quantity...so for those of u who are craving...try to tahan ok? but alcohol used in cooking is fine (like chinese rice wine, XO fish soup) cos the alcohol evaporates in the process of cooking.
Have a great weekend, all!

xbeanniex, D Queen: Maybe you all should post here to ask mummies to go out together. Then like that not boring liao cos we all can't take the same thing and have lots of common topic. Haha!!
