Hi Mummies,



Apologize that i disturb your thread, I am a mother of two and just started my small business to sell confinement wine.



My mum is making traditional Hakka red rice wine n grape wine, small quantity readily available or made to order that guarantee freshness.



I used my mum's wine for my 2 confinements, the wine is sweet with the natural rice or grape smell. No artificial coloring, flavoring or sugar added, all made from 100% glutinous rice or raisin. The rice wine mix with grape wine to cook Ginger chicken is very delicious. 750ml per bottle selling at $12 for rice wine & $18 per bottle for grape, recipe is giving away together with wine purchase.



Rice wine is a must for confinement but delicious confinement food is also important during confinement for your appetizing. No more boring food!



Please pm if anyone of you are interested, 1 bottle tryout is welcome too!

 


mummies,

wan to ask .. anyone experience heartburn ?

i had been having the heartburn almost every evening .. end up no appetite to eat my dinner .... the heartburn is quite serious this time & i think it comes earlier (or i forgot?) as compare to my #1.

Hate that burning feeling that comes from the heart to my throat (almost wan to vomit out thru my mouth liao) .. sians

 
Sinmey,



How is heartburn like? chest pain due to the food we ate?

Recently I only kept experience sour acidic water coming all the way to my mouth, end up it flow back to my throat again. Even after drinking water.



Anyone experience this?

 
sinmey - I always dun have appetite for dinner, sometime experience heartburn, sometime just dun feel like eating, worse the sight of dinner makes me puke....yup as compare to my first pregnancy, this one is way different.



HATE THAT FEELING TOO... :'(

allets and angelia: im so jealous, im getting too huge too fast, even my gynae is asking me to cut down on the sweet food and fattening ones. everyone asked me when im due oredi when im close to 6 mths only.. -_-

worried how i gonna lose the weight after i give birth.

Angelia & Allets : good what! I think it good to have smaller tummy, not too 'obstructive' right! As long as bb is growing & healthy can liao!



Caceilia: Me as case as you, my gynae is nagging @ me too! ask me go on more protein less carbs! How much have you put on alr? Me 7 kgs & counting....

 
mummies,



by when do we need to start monitoring bb movement? cos think bb is lazy today or i too busy to notice her kicking..

 
but my weight gain from before preg to now is about 8plus - 9kg liao leh.. but guess as long as 1 month dun put more than 2.35kg should be ok ba..

 
caecilia n allets: im nw abt 9 kg n counting...during detailed scan i managed to control my weight..only put on 0.3..gynae says go toilet will haf no more liao..so no need worry. so he asked if i realised how i managed to control my weight.. so i told him, for me i cut dwn alot on milk (n i only drink HL low fat) n supper jus tk biscuits.. n really managed to control..

tres:actually if u breastfeed u will slim dwn.. but some extra fats sure cannot lose unless u do exercise..cos aft Jav i breastfeed for abt 8 mths.. n also cos i stayed at hm nvr workout..haha, so i still haf 4 kg frm last pregnancy..=P n i put on 20kg dat time..

 
Carters Spree

caecilia & Tres : Tummy smaller got goods and bads nah ~ But sometime hor, ppls will think that you're fat in your tummy instead thinking that you're pregnant ~ And and when you in train right, no one will give up those seats to you ~ and those shaking in the train, seriously kill ~ I always have my " suan mei " with me ~ :X

 
Re: Weight gain



Wah! I already wonder how you gals put on weight. I'm really having problem putting the kgs. I lost about 2 kg during 1st trimester and now almost coming to the end of 2nd trimester, I'm still at my pre-pregnancy weight leh. So technically, only gain 2 kg during the my 2nd trimester. My tummy is getting very big but how come my weight gain is so slow? Very worried.

 


rach... i saw some pple doing Nissen spree now... looks like got free intl shipping... will u b doing? how about Belly Bandit spree?



thk quite a lot of mummies here will b using Cinch tummy wrap... cinch n belly bandit, which is better? hmm...



mi dun even dare to count the kgs i haf increased... hope haf not reach 10kg... also hafin back ache n shoulder ache... in fact aching all over... dunno izzit coz old liao or coz sit in office too long... hahahaa... wonder wat we can do to ease e pain beside swimming?
