Zelda, I oso heard that cant take much dang gui. But my mum's frens they all have been cooking the soup for their pregnant daughter and DILs as a blood tonic.
I did a search online. And find the details here:
http://www.yahwehsaliveandwell.com/danggui.html
Although some Western physicians do not recommend the use of Dang Gui during pregnancy because of a misunderstanding of its actions, this herb is used by virtually every pregnant woman in China, and has been for many centuries. It has been demonstrated that during pregnancy, Dang Gui exerts an inhibitory action on the uterus, which the Chinese believe helps “stabilize the fetus” and prevents spontaneous miscarriage. In addition, the vitamin E and folic acid in Dang Gui contribute to the stability of the pregnancy. Dang Gui helps prevent inflammation in the pelvic cavity and therefor has protective benefits to the pregnant woman besides stabilizing the fetus and preventing anemia.
I guess anything in moderation is fine, but i dont suggest ladies with weak womb to drink.

Linda: same here I used to like eating the ten wonder herb duck frm dian xiao er now dun dare touch that dish too.
For fruits, my gynae say all fruits can eat, but if wanna follow chinese tradition then avoid fruits that are too liang like pineapple n watermelon. I guess everything in moderation can lar. I dun always eat fruits so I drink fresh orange or apple juice usually. I find drinking juices in the morning helps me in clearing my bowels.

faith_jo, I think is not advisable to take runny eggs due to some bacteria risk, better to take fully cooked eggs.
My mom check with medicinal hall and they tell her cannot eat all herbs except pao shen so currently I'm not taking any herbal stuff.
I'm missing the taste of coffee, although we can take in moderation but I am trying not too.... but sometimes the smell of coffee just makes me crave for it.

la_paix: wah, double effects for Oats, ease constipation & got milk why not. ok but i'll just keep it to Mon-Fri. hahaaa
jasmine: Dr gave ok to runny eggs, medium steak, salads and sashimi (but told me to note the quality of course). PIL recommend to runny eggs too, just make sure they r fresh. YaKun shouldn't be a prob.
chrmei: US/UK sites recommend daily orange juice. my mum told me to take orange juice, she took oranges during her pregnancies.

Dym: a lot of ppl say runny eggs can't take. SIL saw my FB post & screamed, insisted cannot take.
FIL face black black cos, PIL say take 2 eggs 3 times a wk. I very kaisi, only take 1 egg each week. If too long didn't eat better test water on stomach with 1/2 egg first.
Make sure eggs fresh & serve piping hot.
star_nn: me too after too much chili padi sure kena, think cos too long didn't eat spicy stuff stomach gong gong forget how to process.

<font color="000080">I think runny eggs try not to eat, because eating raw and partially cooked eggs got risk of salmonella. The bacteria is on the shell, and if the hens are not healthy (usually the case with battery-farm hens) the shell is too thin and it's easy to get contaminated. Have to avoid leftover eggs also, so only eat eggs fully cooked and hot.
In expectant mothers, our immunity is compromised and we can get severe infection very easily. That being said, risk of contamination is average one in every 30,000 eggs - so really quite low risk.</font>
