ST: Can we take bird nest during confinement? I worry baby will have phlegm.

Yup, will be taking 1 bottle of chicken essence everyday. This round will get CL to boil own chicken essence with dang gui as well or add DOM to drink.

Last confinement I thought breastfeeding cannot take alcohol so did not take

End up never "Bu" properly. This time will just consume after BF and by the next feeding session, the alcohol will be out of the system already

I think i heard 3rd tri onwards better not take bird nest anymore though other selected tonics are still ok....

During confinement you can take DOM or red rice wine to bu....this time you can bu properly liao...
 
ST
I have schedule my c-sect on the 6 June. How about you? Now having bad swollen feet. My friend told me she had a strong feeling that i might be delivery next week. Now really cannot walk and stand long. Walk also like a penguin. :D
 
gladC : u r most welcome! will you be engaging her?

I am still consuming bird nest, in fact some TCM recommend to take during the 3rd trimester....
 
I'll be 34 weeks this Friday and I just started consumng bird nest too. My mum and mil said it is good for 3rd trimester onwards... I guess it is ok to consume anything as long as it's in moderation :D

I haven't book my c-sec yet :p maybe during my 35 weeks checkup then the doc will advise me.

Kome, ur c-sec is on 6-June means how many weeks?
 
Hi all,

Those had send me.. i had response with the link.. pls click to send request to the group.. Will get somemore info from u girls later.

cya!
 
Thanks Cherie! Are you done with your preparations? I'm starting to feel a bit nervous! this morning feel some pain at my lower tummy, was quite worried. but the pain eased off after a while, not sure if that is braxton hicks contractions. Yet to do bb laundry, been procrastinating to pack my hospital bag too! >.<

Windy, I've pm u to join FB Group. thanks!
 
Momko
By that time i will be at week 38 about 4 days.....i think. Abit dangerous for me coz i got history of deliver early, but no choice. I hope to tahan till my gynae is back.
 
HI,

If you decide to have a CN in this last minute, I have a good CN to recommand. She is from JB. No agent fees.. juz herself

Has 15 year of experience. Very clean, cooks well and pro in BF. Importantly not calculative.

PM me for her contacts has she is available now till mid Aug.
 
RE: Birdnest

Can eat during confinement. But I heard is to consume during the last week of confinement. After 3 weeks of heaty confinment food, need birdnest to nourish our body....
 
ST: Thanks for the info on consuming bird nest in the last week of confinement

I just went Hock Hua yesterday to top up some more herbs...... bought wrong quantity last round and the quantity sure not enough to last 28 days.
 
noscon: I dunno whats the difference between red rice wine and the normal (yellow?) rice wine. My MIL got her relative to make home-made rice wine for me last round and it taste very nice and sweet, especially when it was used to cook rice wine with chicken. Very fragrant.

This round requested the same but its the yellow colour ones. Is it the same in terms of benefits?
 
Adelyn

Hock hua has a list of herbs needed for confinement. The store assistant can provide you this list. Did you get it from them?

For Eu Yan San, they have 20% off the ready-pack herbal soups till month end. Good chance to stock up now!

Re bird's nest, my TCM dr has advised against it in 1st and 3rd trimester. The protein in the birds nest has potential to cause allergy. Consuming it in 3rd trimester is not advisable in case baby develops allergy (= phlegm problems). I'm in 3rd trimester and staying off it.

Sharon, I've seen my gynae and was tested strep b positive cos heavy discharge on oral amoxicillin 7 days course upon delivery muz be given Injection penicillin.

Seems like most mummies have swollen feet, I do a lot of leg flexing excercise in bed cos have pelvis bone dysfunction gotta do e physio training at home to prepare myself in be condition to pop. The back aching is a killer, I use hot compress to e area or towel to support back to sleep.
Hopefully, our sleepless / insomnia nite can end soon :

done the strep b test yest, bb weighs 2.7+kg at 35 weeks. can't wait for 3-jun so i can officially stop work.
 
Dear mummies, Sorry that I've been away for so long... I have a question!!

Have you heard about the J &amp; J issue with their products lately?

Will you still use it or u will use another product for your newborn?
 
Tricia: Wow you look sexy. Is this your own dress? Where did you purchase it from?

Ladies: Can i check with you. Usually the full month cake, do you give to relatives only or friends as well? If i m holding a full month celebration buffet that comes with the red egg, glutinous rice and Ang Ku Kueh, then do i still have to give them a separate box of the same for those who have attend?

1st time mummy, inexperience.

ST- Hi, may I know what the so hup pills r for?
Adelyn/Marble - May I know if the confinement list given by Hock hua is in English or Chinese? Cos I ask my mil to help me get the list fm HH in her trips to jb n its just a short list on some Chinese herbs in Chinese no exactly the soup sets or etc.
Thanks in advance for your advise!
Can I also chk w u gals that is it all right that I'm not getting any scan arrangement by the Kk doc when I asked if next appt can do scan w appt, since my last scan w appt was at 29wks n till now 35th wk no scan? I had my appt last wk at 34 wks also no scan ;( was worried cos they detect a fibroid in my womb w bb n its kinda growing together w bb so was concerned if it will endanger the bb in any way.M on subsidized rate so didnt opt for specialisized doc n as a result everytime see different doc ;(. Doc (she) told me too early to scan as bb head may not b engaged down yet so no pt wait nearer to delivery date then scan n by than if anything obscur the bb then decide whether need c section :9 haiz what kind of an ans is that? Wait till last min then see what to do? Is kk trying save on scan cost for subsidized patients? Arghhh...
