coyote: haha... sai aside, i did put on weight after yummy claypot. DH too. we are amazed.
i tried the pig stomach soup before. not bad but if it had been more peppery, i will like it more.
crab beehoon, is sold at market price. $4kg/kg of crab. lobster i forgot. i have not tried claypot rice before because i dun like this dish in general. we always order the olive fried rice, and egg with bitter gourd.
oh, the green vege drink is my absolute fav! but to some, it's an acquired taste.

yummy claypot is at 340 Joo Chiat road. It's quite crowded but usually we don't make reservations if it's just 2 of us. just wait for a while.
if you plan to go with a big crowd, then maybe might wish to make reservations. 63457345
oops, and sorry, it's crab porridge and crab beehoon, not lobster. paiseh!

peapea: for the best black chicken soup (IMHO of cos haha), go to:
Tan Ser Seng Herbs (Turtle) Restaurant
No. 29 Lor Bachok (inside Geylang Lor 21)
i will have the black chicken soup after every menses and my next mense will be on time, and much less crampy. if i did not eat, my next menses is usually more painful. even my DH notices it so he makes sure we eat at least once a month.

carice, happy: i've had a 50-day cycle before even though my menses are usually quite regular. sometimes it's just due to unknown stress. i know it's hard but try not to think about it. take care!
<font color="000080">I just found this online (peeonastick.com!) - hope it helps:
"One of the main causes of a delayed period (extra-long luteal phase with high temps) with negative pregnancy tests is a luteal cyst. In a nutshell: when you ovulate, your egg ruptures from a small follicle. This follicle is known as the "corpus luteum". The corpus luteum produces progesterone. In the event of pregnancy, this progesterone will support the growing embryo until the placenta takes over and makes enough progesterone for itself. Then the corpus luteum shrivels up and stops functioning.
"In the event that there is NO pregnancy, the corpus luteum also shrivels up and stops functioning - ending the luteal phase. The drop in progesterone causes your period to begin.
"SOMETIMES, however, there is no pregnancy, but the corpus luteum turns into a small cyst and continues to secrete progesterone long after it's supposed to stop. This is called a luteal cyst, and is responsible for too many false hopes! (Progesterone also causes PMS and pregnancy-like symptoms, such as tender breasts.) If this is the problem, it's simple to resolve (usually a single injection takes care of it) but your doctor needs to see you!"
HappyGoLucky >> Some people's HCG production is slow, so urine tests don't show! May want to go gynae for a blood test to confirm

coyote> thanks for sharing! the food make me drool even after i just had my dinner. must drag my hb there soon! *drool drool*
Happy> I think your gyne will scan you, just in case, before he prescribe you any medication.
I'm wondering if my "corpus luteum shrivels up and stops functioning". I used to have very regular period and little pain. Now is flying all over the place. I heard stories that preg can make one's period regular and less painful, but mine is totally opposite.
It's tough being woman lei!

morning everyone!
coyote: i just started BBT charting and still learning about it. does the temp go up before O?
i know the day it dips sharply means its O, and then the temp will rise sharply after.
still waiting for the elusive fertile CM. now barely having creamy CM.

<font color="000080">tangerinez >> No, temps only go up after O. (Remember my previous post about corpus luteum? Rise = Progesterone active, Dip = Estrogen active.) But some days we have fluke temperature ups and downs, which is why the important thing is a sustained temperature rise.</font>
