morning mummies!
regarding herbal soups, my MIL said she will start brewing cordyceps herbal soup once i hit 5 months. say should only bu after 5 months. til now, i avoid all herbal soups and don't even dare to take bak kut teh. but my SIL took red dates, dangshen and longgan tea daily when she was pregnant previously. so i guess dangshen, red dates and dried longgan should be fine to add in soups?
talking about weight, i lost some in wk 6-8 and now my weight has resumed to be pre-pregnancy weight. not looking forward to put on weight so fast.
but i do try to eat more proteins than carbos as proteins helps bb to grow.
today feeling very moody coz i scratched my car yesterday when exiting from my office carpark and the car was just changed recently. so upset with myself. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

I think i have gain weight. Prob is i didn't weigh myself prior to pregnancy and tat time was drinking a lot of bubble tea so shd have increase. When first weight was ored 11 weeks and weight is ored 4KG heavier than usual. So need to maintain and try not to increase too much. prob is i have a sweet tooth and like to drink sweet drinks. sweet drinks will increase weight.
By the way, dun drink too much cordyceps bec' will give birth to big baby. Durians also will increase weight of bb a lot.
Red dates are fine.
During the 2nd trim, only need to increase 1-2 KG per month. Yr weight will shoot up very fast during the last trim, with 1-2KG increase every week. So dun worry abt weight loss and dun try to increase too much now bec' later on will increase a lot one. During my last p, my total weight gain is 14KG and my boy is 3.6KG big bb so took longer time to recover cos need to use forcep and wound is all the way to anus quite long. after give birth and after confinement end, left only 2KG to lose. After breastfeed, still slimmer by 1-2KG than Pre-P weight.

Morning mummies! I turn 13 weeks today, am feeling good so far. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] Hope all your aches and discomforts will go away soon too. Those who were recently unwell, do take care. There is a flu bug going around.
Next appointment to see baby is not till 2 weeks later. I'm really looking fwd to April, lots of exciting things. Hopefully by then, we will get to know gender to start shopping, short holiday, new ride.. etc.

Bunnz: Haha thanks! Your baby is saying ‘here here mummy!’ with arms raised. =) Yes I agree! I can’t stand not being able to move or laugh when I see baby so cute coz if there is movement then baby will move too then the scan loses focus…But now no need to drink much water before scan already right? How come your bladder still so full? Hhaha….
Daddysbao: Is it a guy thing or what? Haha my hubby also eats the SAME thing every lunch and I just don’t get it! But I guess its good to vary to ensure that your body is well-supplied with nutrients from various food sources…
Igop: Oh OG have maternity bra? Do you know which brand? Are they comfy? I have one from Spring Maternity but they ran out of sizes when I wanted to buy another one…
Aches & Pains:
Pommes and the rest who may have aches/pains, do remember to check that the product you use to soothe the pain does not contain the ingredient salicylate! Coz earlier on in the pregnancy my whole body was aching like mad and I wanted to go and buy those patches aka ko yok, then the pharmacist told me as long as there isn’t this ingredient, it’s fine…so in the end, I used those with natural chili extract.
Blossomsbb: Hahaha your baby really can make people laugh! Next time can be dramatist! =p Send for early acting classes!

bisforbb: dunno! I also couldn't understand how they can eat the same food and dun get sick of it. My hd can even choose the same type of veges to eat everytime
Now I'm stuck with eating rice, so am trying to change the variety of dishes to go with it, but bb seems to have his/her own selective choices. I dun think I'm having a balanced diet at all.

Hehe We usually order the same dishes when we go to the same restaurant. We r not so adventurous w our food selection.
Bisforbb : nurse told me to hv full bladder before test. I just emptied mine at hospital lobby. So drank 2 small cups of water while waiting. Waited for 40 mins, bladder full agn lor.
Lady also can see my bladder very full.:&
Had spagetti w avocado sauce. Demolished it. Famished.
Simbaobao: didnt try ur recipe though. Got a simpler one off Internet with just avocado , lemon juice , garlic.. That's abt it. I think. Like the zesty taste[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Rumi, I had craving for tom yum soup few weeks back. Drank a lot of it. opps :x
Hi all, was spending some time reading the posts. Been eating peanut butter, nutella, kaya etc. Looks like I have to follow gina christine's steps to buy 'flavoured' bread!
Please take care of your blood pressure ladies! I was admitted for observation at KK yesterday because of it. BUT then again I must highlight I have hypertension prior to pregnancy. I'm at high risk of developing pre-eclampsia, so luckily I monitor my BP at home and they change my medication before it affects the baby.
On 5 days hospitalization leave, already took yesterday and today. This month alone I've taken quite a few MCs and it's a new job, I'm just fearing the worse. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] Think I better go back to work tomorrow.

Mareike, which brand is her pump? For Ameda/Avent, you can use the motor, but buy new parts (funnel, valves, bottles) for hygiene purposes.
If you are buying Avent parts, I remember the full set will cost ard $100 for the new funnels and stuff.

Medela parts easier to find new ones. A lot of ppl are doing bulk purchase/overseas spree on it. You can check out the different threads [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Or you can go to the service centre. They will also sell the spare parts there (but cheaper to buy online).

Open system means you gotta change the tubing too, that's all. Other than that, no other issues with hygiene [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Koume: cos i'm also seeing a cardiologist, my cardiologist told me methyldopa min. dosage is 250mg x 2 le.. But gynae says as long as bp does not exceed 140/90 then she not so worried.. Gynae wanted me to try take 125 x 2 instead... ssometimes my diastolic drop to 70 and below i'll feel faint..

Kelly & Koume, good that you are well taken care of by cardiologist. My friend was not so fortunate cos her gynae said her blood pressure is not a big deal. End up, she went into pre-term labour at week 33 cos of high blood pressure.

Wow Gina you are very fast with the booking! So which ward type did u go for???
babydustmummy

Oh, the booking was recommended by my gynae during my last visit. He made the application for me after the visit and I just got the confirmation today. He says Mt A wards are booked very fast so he asked me to do it soon. And he is right cos there's no more single rooms which I wanted. I'm on double bedded but he will help me upgrade closer to the date of delivery.
