Luv from Yu ren Sheng also? Did u buy the one with less sugar or normal one? Hmm how often do we drink? Hee
Bb normally I would cook with 8 red dates and 5pcs of dang sheng with 1 skinless black chicken. Boil for 2hrs. I shared with hb. Must parboil the black chicken. Cos v oily. Been drinking it weekly sin 2nd trimester. dang sheng is a v good herb as it can help to bu our qi. Cos we need qi during childbirth. I tried Googling dang sheng and was amazed by the goodness of it. No wonder my ah ma told me dang sheng v good.
I told reiki baby the other recipe cos she don't like Porky smell.
Hope I prefer to drink homemade birdnest. I also did bought the hock hua 6bottles birdnest cos I find the birdnest in each bottle more than other brand. I only drink bottled type when I m busy. Act v easy to boil bird nest. Just soak it for half hour and then double boil it with pao sheng for 30-45mins. Add rock sugar during half way.

Kittykatty, good to hear that your scan went well!
Thanks, babysmurf, bb and precious baby, ya I checked with the nurse about my first scan and she said Dr Foong said anytime on week of 22 Oct. and since my DH is traveling, I booked the scan on 24Oct so that he can be there too. By then, it will be 3 weeks after my BT and in my Week 8.

Hope, yup, from EYS cos saw the discount too. Bought the normal rock sugar one cos I'm afraid I wouldn't like the less sugar type. I think I'll be taking one bottle weekly.
sade, I actually bought Hock Hwa's bird's nest b4 that. Does it have more bird's nest than EYS?
sade, do u know if there're different types of pao shen? Which type can we take?

Luv, for me I felt the hock hua bottle type is more concentrated.
I bought the wild type of pao sheng from hock hua too. The sales told me to buy better grade type. So I just listen to him lor. Those better grade type are in one whole piece and he will use machine to slice for us.

Tutu, didn't get that. I got a mother care wedge that is inclined cos already had a body contour pillow. No space already on bed. But the dream genii looked amazing. But not cheap. It's abt $150 plus. 10% off if got mother care card or ocbc platinum.
Znatasha, hmmm I m no expert n I din see tcm ever sin bfp.
So maybe its your body type hence the tcm suggested that to Add aft 6months.
Actually I love to drink cordyceps with loin pork and pao sheng. I don't find it Porky or any weird taste of cordyceps. I drank it once a week. Just 4pcs of cordyceps ea time.
One of my friend drank cordyceps from first trimester till end of 2nd trimester and she told me her bb seldom fall sick.
My aunt kept on saying that I look pale and weak hence keep on advising me to drink more tonics. So that bb can be strong.

Tutu,
For me it comes together, less nausea means more appetite.
Babysmurf,
I do leak urine esp when I vomit n sneeze but it seems better in 2nd trimester.
Something I learnt during first pregnancy. Sometimes we can't feel if we have finish emptying our bladder so lean forward a little when the urine stops flowing sometimes can have some more urine coming out. It's important to empty our bladder completely.

hi ladies,
just wonder if any of your elders know how to treat "confinement wind". My friend just gave birth (c-sect) and she has had that since delivery. Can't sleep at night and feel numbness and cold on limbs. Her gynae did gave her sleeping pills but she don't want to take it.
Any traditional method/suggestions for treatment?

Babysmurf, me too! I read that we should pelvic floor exercise to strengthen pelvic muscle.
Btw, ladies, I just called the confinement lady whom my friend recommended. She is already booked! I am now on panic mode. Asking my other friends if they have anyone reliable to recommend. Die lah!

I also had urine leak once when I was retching unusually hard. Thank goodness only that one time *fingers crossed*. I wasn't sure what had happened initially. Was a bit worried after I realised it was urine leak, but figured it was better than having waterbag leak!!
Yup, sade is right. If can, try to strengthen the pelvic muscles. Will prevent such leaks and help in labour.

Hi psp, welcome!
Babysmurf, i also dont know. The nurse called this afternoon to inform me my beta level and then ask me to go down tomorrow to collect medicine. When she called me, i was shocked and keep asking her to repeat. Too happy to accept it but also very scared. Dont know if i can hold it for e next 9 months, cos the birth rate is not favourable.
No innards for how long? Can i take beef or lamb?
What shld i do in the meantime while waiting for my next scan?
