i heard can't do any sewing, cutting on the bed if not might result in cleft lip. and can't move furniture around as well. no knocking of drilling of nails etc at home too when preggy lady is around.
Coke
i am still taking coke occasionally when cravings come. but i tried not to take it with too much ice and normally i drink half a can. i think as long as we take it in moderation should be fine.

Friends, what caramel thing? I didn't know... 
I dun like EYS one leh... taste wierd...
tres, my gal wakes up sometimes in middle of night. I will usually hug her for 10 mins, then put her back to zzz... then I go back and zzz... But if Hb goes over, he might land up zzz-ing in her room till morning.

snowhopes > Brands Chicken essence has a bit of caramel added to achieve the black consistent colour whereas in other chicken essence, they claim they do not add that's why their chicken essence colour is rather 'consistent' some darker brown as compared.
But my colleague say it is only 0.03% added and there is no harmful effect abt it....
haha, as for me & hb, we are too lazy to even stay up for 10 mins so we just bring her over lor.... hahaha

Jojo90, I've found one CL, after calling more than 10 CL. To think mine doesn't cross over to CNY, so difficult to find already. Have to put deposit though.
Friends, I also think Brands Essence taste best, the taste very concentrated.
Panting issue:
I heard no pasting of things on the wall too!
Tonic:
Besides chicken essence, is anyone planning to take other tonic herbal soups during pregnancy? I find that for my 2nd DD, seems like stronger body and I did drink more tonic soups during 2nd & 3rd trimester.

Just curious, have you all informed your superior about your pregnancy?
My mum prepared herbal soup for me weekly. She said is to 补气. It consist of dang shen, pao shen, wolfberry, red dates and lean meat. Think can ask the medical hall people to recommend what is good for pregnant mothers.

hello mommies!! so many posts! i jus scanned thru very fast. must have missed a lot!
<font color="119911">tigress</font>, i use Avent Manual for both my kids during pumping. i own a ameda, and a friend lend me PIS, but i still love my avent manual...
<font color="0000ff">canopy</font>, hugs......saw ur ratio. u doing amnio or seeing dr ananda?
<font color="ff6000">shice</font>, sorry hasn't ans ur questions on why i sent my kids to two diff schools. actually its technically the same school, just different branches. reason being when my son enters this school in N1 and we convert him from half to full day, he coughed for 3 continuous months without stopping. we tried PDs, GPs, TCM, tui nas, nothing work until we saw a specialist. he diagnosed him and suggested we pull him out for the time being. we pull him out for 3-4mths, then put him back again in N2. the school is airconditioned. for my #2, i decided to really send her to non aircon schools. so i enrolled her in the other branch nearby. also near office. fresher air. i didn't move my boy cos he's in K2 oredi and has regular friends. so now we fetch from both places loh. heee. we did a lot of research and comparison before deciding on the preschools too.
<font color="0077aa">piscean</font> yah thanks for the tip on rubber band. i saw that on youtube too! what an ingenious idea! anyway, i bought a bellaband already. hope it works for me!

Friends,
Yup I find Dr Tham very calming and approachable. Plus he doesn't restrict my diet too much, at least until the later stages if i put on too quickly.
Toddler bed,
Thanks for all your input. I'll go and see the extendable beds again.

Friends/Tres, Yah I noticed this caramel thingy too! But I realised something: I think now they print Caramel (natural source). For me I grew up drinking BRANDS and I will never forsake Brands for another chicken essenese. Talk abt Brand Loyalty... ;p
ctrus, I have informed my direct supervisors.
piscean/ctrus: My mum made me soup using dang shen, huai shan, wolfberry, red dates with chicken. Not bad at least i dun feel so weak in the evenings (or maybe cos my ADS is leaving me).

ctrus, ya coke got caffaine. but i'm really sleepy and i just ended a meeting. Need abit of caffaine. First time drinking coke in 3 months! haha.. super shiok! but dun intend to do this often. how u manage to survive without coffee when u're a regular drinker?
friends, i agree with u, taste wise brands is still the best!
abt cleft lip, if after detailed scan and gynae confirm no cleft lips, means we can do the pantang stuff already? will the cleft lips problem occur later stage of preg? just wondering. haha!
daisybutton, ic.. fetching from 2 different places means u have to leave work earlier rite? my hubby always pick my son up at the very last min and i cant reach my son's sch on time if i leave at 6pm.
Envy those who have herbal soup to drink. My mum or mil dun cook such soup for me. have to rely on chicken essence.

<font color="0000ff">shice</font>. both my kids are on half day preschool.
after his 3 mths cough, i dun have the courage to put him back on full day. as for my daughter, i still prefer her to sleep at home. so Mon, tues, my hubby fetch. now wed-fri my dad helps fetch. i used to fetch them on mon-tue until i preggie, simply no energy and i have to speed all the way back to work. lol. but when #3 comes and my #1 enters primary school, i may consider puting my #2 to full day. i will need to discuss with her. heee.
herbal soup, can cook yourself actually. just buy the double tier ceramic tonic pot, buy meat and herbs, throw in at correct level and brew for 2 hrs. i brew for my kids heee.

<font color="0077aa">shice</font> so whats ur decision regarding the preschools?
daisybutton, maybe can start ur boy on vit c or some probiotics to build up immune system? since he will be gg pri sch, it may be worse. more interaction with other kids.
re herbal soup
just go to herb stall and ask them which herb is good to preggies? or i can just buy those pre-pack from ntuc. but i also dunno which one is suitable for preggies.
re pre-school
decided to give the current sch a chance. try out first, and see how my son cope. since most of u mentioned that this age is more of playing and learning thru play. my worry is that the play area is not big enough, dunno if will limit the "learning thru play" part. haha..
ctrus, if dun drink coffee, u wun feel sleepy? worse still that we r preggie, feels tired more easily! hmm.. from my memory of #1, my gynae got scan from cleft lips together with the 4 sections of the heart, main organs (liver, kidney i think?), the main bone structure (arms, legs, ribcage, spine, head, fingers, toes) etc. really looking forward to detailed scan.

<font color="0077aa">shice</font>, haha thanks but that was in 2009. since then i have already intro all kinds of supplements/tonics to him already. to build him up. my cupboards and fridge are full haha.
Drinks: I still drink one cup of Teh C every morning. As for coke, I will replace it with root beer! I still share canned ice lemon tea, green tea with my hubby. My gynae (like LM mentioned) is the everything also can as long in moderation type so I just continue to eat and drink....
tres/Friends, I drink one cup of Tea-O every morning. I cannot survive wo tea-o!!! as for soft drinks, I seldom drink coke now. If I do is - a few sips. I think moderation is ok. The babycentre website also states that it is ok to take caffine drinks, however in moderation.
usually 1 cup of coffee or tea a day is ok. For my #1, I did not drink tea/coffee/caffine soft drinks/green tea for first 2 trimsters cos I read abt low birth weight due to caffine. In the end, my gal come out less than 3kg lor... Haiyah... so this time I dun so cham liao. Just drink as I like (in moderation).

Bb size
Think it depends on genes. Both mine are tiny despite me stopping coffee and tea for #2. she actually turned out smaller. (actually mine turn out small despite eating durians and steak hmmmppphhh)
Think caffeine should be avoided in the last trimester coz caffeine stays in bb system longer so you might get a very wakeful newborn
Daisybuttons
You have an '06 child? Your #2?
Brands chicken essence
Haha I hate the taste of bottled chic essence.
For first time mummies
Are you very strict on your diet? Must make sure you get enough calories wor. As well as growth food!! Natural food is the best, however it is done

Full house, I will tell u if my bb still lands up small this round. As for wakeful bb, I did have one cup tea daily during 3rd trim. Not too bad. She sleeps ok and is not wakeful type. In fact she rather zzz than drink milk. ;p
Jo, u first time mummy? My gynae only tell me that I jus need to eat at least enuf to replenish myself. Cos bb will jus absorb whatever nutrients they need from the mother. Kinda like a leech. So fret not abt the bb's nutrients...
So tired at 11pm... Gotta quickly bathe n go zzz Liao- nite nite gals!

i think banana can take.. but not those big ones.. (supposingly liang)
coconut can only take during last tri i tink.. (my fren told me), she said help to 'clean' the bb, so when bb is out, not so dirty...
i ever ask my mum y cannot take crabs.. den she say is worry that when bb grow up.. like go supermarket will anyhow touch tings.. or rather go pple's hse, will anyhow touch tings loh... so i juz listen to her.... i juz bear with it!
i'm so tempted to take gui ling gao too coz i'm feeling so heaty... >.<

Fullshouse and snowhopes.... on the contrary, i drink kopi-c daily during my last trimester for #1, she is not wakeful, fair, not underweight (above 3kg) and due exactly at 40 weeks... so my lesson learn is that everything in moderation!! So my #2 I'm kinda relax.... hhaha!
Morning mummies!
For my no 1, he came out at 39 weeks and 4days due to induced. Weight about 2.9kg... I drank Tea everyday so I think shd be ok... As for crabs, my mil said she ate a lot when preg with hubby so she never restrict me eating it. Only thing my mil and mummy don't allow is my fav mutton!

Good morning ladies! I am a coffee and tea lover, but I stopped completely after getting preggy. Not that I don't want to drink, but I will puke if I drink.
For my #1, I didn't drink coffee & tea throughout as it was my first baby, I was very careful about my diet. My #1 came out on WK38 via emergency c-section, 3.1KG. I got a feeling that my #2 will be small since I am not eating well, I lost about 2KG for the 1st 2 months. Now at WK14, I have not put on any weight.

tres, same for my gal lor... Other than she was light weight, she was not wakeful and was born exactly at 40 wks (1 day before EDD).
S_loh, yah cannot take the Del Monte/Dole bananas (those that are super long and huge - "beh geh jio" if I am not wrong). The ones that can be taken is the "ang bah jio" and "pang jio"?

The names of the bananas are so funny 'pang jio', for a moment I thought it is 'pass urine' in Hokkien. I heard before cannot eat Del Monte bananas but not sure about the rationale behind it. I usually eat those small ones call 'Ge Leng Jio', direct translation will be 'Indian bananans'

<font color="0000ff">fullhouse</font>, my #1 is 06 baby.
he's coming 6 now and following week is his P1 registration.
<font color="ff6000">food intake</font>. haha my #1 i very pantang, everything ppl say cannot eat i really dun eat. including caffeine, soya beancurd, less liver, half boiled eggs, raw food blah blah blah. especially crabs. end up his hand very itchy anyway! everyting also touch. so i conclude, not true.
so for #2 i relak abit, i drink a leeeetle bit of caffeine once in a while, and I EAT CRABS! i think turn out fine, cos #1 still more touchy feely than #2. So i completely debunked the crab myth and i am definitely gg to eat crabs this #3!.
then this #3, i think i really more relak. caffiene if i crave i will drink. cold drinks take a lot cos helps nausea. half boil eggs if i crave i will eat. i eat liver. i ate cooked cockles before. cooling stuff like cooling fruits i still eat e.g. mangosteens but i will counter with heaty fruit that same day or next day. not sure if it helps but it makes me feel beta.
The only thing i really really don't take still, is soya bean curd (ppl say bean curd contains shi gao which is super cooling), raw shell fish, sashimi, pineapples, delmonte bananas, mutton, halfcooked meat...

s_loh:: lol~ so r boys mum's previous life's lover? so if all girls.. means the mum's previous life mei ren ai?
actually last time..whn i was preg..n went to our fengshui master...(that was before we know the bbs gender)... he mentioned to us.. 'shen hai zi..yao shen nu er xian'.. it's better to hv girls as first born.
u shld tell yr hb.. girls will normally bring fortune to the father... so he shld b looking forward to a bb girl (if first born) more. hahaha.
but of cos i understand too.. we're still chinese, n some chinese still prefer boys..to carry on the family line or smting. hehe.
anyways.. we all know deep well...... as long as bb healthy n guai guai.... that's most important huh. heee~

Oh no, I ate subway (club trio) for dinner last nite... got ham and vegetable. Still thinking was very healthy sia~ And yes, I missed my soft-boiled egg!!!
This is my first pregnancy, I do noticed that I crave for spicy food (e.g. curry, tom yum, laksa) 无辣不欢. During my initial stage, I need to nap immediately after meal esp on non-working days. Then they were said most likely will be a gal. Dunno how true too.
