Sunbelle, was at burger king there.
Baby, belle wears 2 sets a day. Morning shower, 1 set. In the evening, I wipe her n change into PJs. Unless, she pukes n dirty the clothes then maybe 3 sets a day. We r v careful in cleaning belle when she poo n we r prompt in cleaning her too so, seldom the poo dirty her clothes n we need to change.
Fatefully, u can google online wat u can eat n wat u cannot eat n the servings per meal. I can Give u some eggs
Breakfast - multi grain, low GI gardenia bread ($2.95), spread with little unsalted butter, 1 slice and a hard boiled egg. A glass of low fat milk
Tea break, abt 2-3 hrs later after breakfast - 2 slices of whole meal plain biscuits
Lunch, 2-3 hrs later after tea break, - mee hoon (thin or thick kind) fish soup (dun drink too much of soup as usu contains abit of sugar n MSG as flavouring). A low sugar content fruit, such as a small apple, a slice of papaya.
Afternoon tea break, a slice of multi grain bread or 2 slices of biscuits
Dinner - 1 serving (the size of your fist) each of meat, fish n veg n carbo such as brown rice. as far as possible avoid white rice. Plus a fruit again per above
1 hr after dinner, go for brisk walking or swimming for 45mins to an hr.
Before bed, take a glass of low fat milk n 2 slices of biscuits.
The above is just an eg. After u hv seen a nutritionist, u will more choices.
Pls bear in mind
- no fruit juices,sweets, chocolates, desserts, fatty food, sweet drinks, etc. diet drinks once a while is ok.
- if u take kopitiam coffee or tea, take no sugar n no milk. If too bitter, u can put sugar free equal. If u taking it at home, u can put low fat milk. Outside, usu condensed milk or evaporated milk. One is sweet n the other fattening,
- no white rice, glutinous rice n sushi rice
- 2 servings of fruits a day per above
- take small meals each time n abt 6 meals a day
- no cakes, pastry, no high sugar content fruits such as durians, mango, grapes, mangosteen...
- an interval of 2-3hrs gap before next food intake coz food takes 2 hrs to digest n break down completely. U cannot load on your system now
- try to make your meals, incl tea breaks at the same timing everyday. This keeps the glucose level in your body constant. Hv to avoid sudden dip Or spike in glucose level
- if u r eating outside, avoid food with gravy or sauce as it contains sugar. Meat like char Siew is a no no coz it full of sugar. Where possible, ESP dinner, eat home cooked food cox u know fr sure what sauces n seasonings r used.
It u hv a glucose meter now, check your reading before food and 2 hrs after food n note it down. Show it to the dr next wk. Ideally, the reading 2 hrs after food has to be below 7. It also tells uif u r eating the right food n the quantity too.
Is not an easy task coz being pregnant, we will eat more n tend to go hungry more. But no choice, with GD, u just hv to endure. With strict diet, u may also start to lose weight. But dun worry as long as bb is gaining weight... Bb's weight gain will be slower too. As long as bb is healthy n above 2.5kg at birth, is good enough.
