happy, i used to order and they always serve very cheap and simple food. Cannot chose also therefore i rather go downstairs and eat whatever i want.
sun96, i think mine started to cool down after 12 weeks then by 14th weeks i'm alive and kicking at the dinner table again.
puppet, i'm not too sure abt twins. But i guess mostly also will settle by 2nd trimester. It's honeymoon trimester for pregnant women. Can go anywhere while tummy still small, eat almost anything and won't vomit out. Shiok! by 3rd trimester, it's another beginning of hell time. hot flushes, rashes, swell legs and backache will all set in slowly.
REN!!!!

Sun and puppet,
Not to scare you, my MS didnt really subside until 20 weeks i think and on off I will still puke like at least every other days... so as compared to the 1st 20 weeks, i am not complaining... cos by 16 weeks i think, i was suffering from heartburn and ribcage nerve expansion pain + rashes. i was jus like u all, counting down to week 12 but it came and went and MS still hovering around...
Puppet,
I ordered tinkat before when preggie but i felt that it made me feel worse cos the taste is yucks...and the vege all yellowish... everytime is sweet and sour.. i rather dabao if i can. No choice to order then cos i was very very sick and DH not around in S'pore.

sun6, slowly i'm able to eat more without feeling sick. then i know it's the end of ms.. so it takes abt 2 weeks to completely recover. from week 12, i get better each and everyday. It's not a one day affair. it will happen slowly.. Be patient!
happy, i don't think i will do the tingkat again. Anyway i need to cook more fresh food for my girl mah. i guess i have to start all the cooking from next week. No rest for me. Haiz.. work 24/7 a week and gov doesn't recognise my hard work.

Puppet,
The nausea does disappear. Slowly, you'll feel better and realise you can eat more and more things, but it's gradual. The height of my nausea was around Christmas and New Year last time so I missed out on all the eating. I remember throwing up turkey and stuff. Until now, when I think about some of the foods I threw up then, I still get scared!
Wan, will you be sending Kate to playschool? I'm starting to look around for playschools. It's really expensive and doubly so when there're two of them and they don't give sibling discount! Humph.

just to add.. can cook abc soup too... carrots, potato, onions or celery with pork ribs or chicken... this can act as a one dish meal too...
sun96,
my mum cooks 3 types of egg soup...i only know how to cook one of them.
1) put fried onion inside beaten egg-with sauces, to fry into thick omelette. use stock of ikan bilis as soup base. add the omelette and sauce to taste.
2) steam egg soup-my favorite but no recipe. must get from mum.
3) mix egg w mince pork and throw into hot water to cook..hee.. add sauce to taste.
eskimo,

sun96,
abc soup is the one i mentioned with carrots, potatoes etc...
happy,
wow... i never tasted any of the egg soup u mentioned.. my mum usually use mince pork with fishball and tang hoon with the 'dong cai' the preserved salty brown brown veggie that u add to soup one... if there's no soup base.
for no. 1 after put the omelette in... do u make it into smaller pieces? my hubby loves eggs and soup so maybe can try out some recipes during the sch hols... steam egg soup sounds very very tempting... can help to get the recipe?
i only know steam egg with mince meat... this is my comfort food... when young my mum would mix this with plain rice and put black sticky soy sauce over and i would gobble up the whole plate... hehehe

sun96, last time i also don't know what is ABC soup. hee hee.. I thought it's some angmoh cream soup. until one day my hubby say,'oh you cook ABC soup today.' then i realise actually potato, onion and carrot means ABC soup.
happy, i like the mince pork omelette soup too! my grandma-in-law always cook and until very oily. But it's very tasty and nice! But i forgot the recipe already. Yesterday i keep thinking of the receipe. Now can use yours and try. hee hee..
elle, of cos you can join in the fun. I nv post in the thread cos i don't wanna demoralise everyone and scared them with my experience. It's not so good to hear abt bad news when you are doing the stressful ivf.
vanilla, i find it strange to cook fruits.. like pear pork ribs soup or the double boil pear dessert, i also cannot accept. i've got old brain and very mountain turtle. Maybe it's the fruit's sweetness in the food that is making it weird for me.

sun96, thanks and congralutions to you.
. Do you need to take any medicines for your MS or there is none ?
I will be going for my scan next sat. Getting excited and worried every day. Whao, the mind is in rollercoaster.
Ladies, i found a great method to cook soup using 'Tangyu' pot. Got it as Tangs and the soups are ultra delicious. You can taste the exact ingredients you put in.

sun96, i nv get any anti-nausea pills last time. dr told me there is no medication for it. and ask me to hang on... kaoz...

vanilla, ya... i envy you. I have to cook my own soup.. sobz!
very true. Dr will ask us to drink ginger water to stop the bloating. so traditional. I went to see him twice during my OHSS. and both times i'm send back home with nothing. I guess i'm so irritating.
then for my ms, he ask me to bite on a biscuit in the morning before i even brush my teeth. I nv try that cos very disgusting. I'm used to brushing my teeth before breakfast.

wan, haha..I tot I am only 3 weeks. Peisei.
Found the tanyu claypot link -> http://www.jarmay.com.sg/claypotintroduction.html
I am a converted fan of this claypot after I bought it and try my first trial in soup cooking. The soup is bagus ! I bought 2 recipe books at tangs too cos I am not a good cook. Want to impress my DH with my new found hobby. He is impressed !
happy, me and DH noticed the same soup ingredient we make using the normal steel pot vs the claypot turns out thicker and better fragrant in the claypot.
now, every sunday night is cooking soup day for us.

hi happy and WanBB - haha... i really am like dying and in great pain then thot will get some sympathy but he was like "it is not that bad...there are worse case...they need to be hospitalised and put on drip" and he said with such a straight face! But to be honest lah...even with painkiller also no use..cos i took some from my current gynae and those eaten ones i vomitted everything out and need to take those via the rectum also no use.. in the end i give up and did not take any... so he is right in the sense..
happy, i cook melon and corn plus pork ribs soup tonight. abit liang liang for the family.
elle, that's the claypot i'm talking abt. I wanted to get it. strangely the soup really taste nicer hor.
vanilla, dr is a nice guy. i intro my sis to him and my sis also say he very nice. His words is easy to the ears too. he even give me his cellphone number when i went overseas during my IVF program. So nice lor..
puppet, better don't take any medication. I have flu for a few times during pregnancy and nv dare to take medication. Even if it's okay for pregnant women. And after childbirth, cannot take painkiller cos I wanna breastfeed! Imagine not taking painkiller with the wound below. I can't sleep at night cos of the pain. although the nurse say it's okay since i haven't flow any milk but i still play safe lor. How i know when the milk will come... kaoz!

puppet,
you really can tahan
i took the pills last time when i really couldn't tahan. that pill made me SUPER drowsy. i was like a zombie after taking that...so could only take in the evening...
wan,
oh, yr sister seeing him also. how is she so far?
melon and corn soup...very healthy.
so u add wolf berries in your soup?
you really can tahan
wan,
oh, yr sister seeing him also. how is she so far?
melon and corn soup...very healthy.
happy, my sister is lazy and don't wanna source for a gynae herself so she use mine. Very Lame right?? Dr says she's 6 weeks and she will go for her next scan 2 weeks later. But strangely, she don't have to do V-scan! how come Dr insist i must do V-scan and she don't have too..
Puppet,
Take the pills if you have to. They're very safe and they might make you a lot less miserable. I even had a jab to stop my nausea and then the pills and I have 2 doctors in the family who fully encouraged me to take the pills. Their rationale, as was Dr Foong's was, stop the nausea, can eat, better for the pregnancy rather than lose weight and have the pregnancy suffer for that.
Wan, I would feel a bit jealous if I were in your shoes. I think the difference is in the pregnancy. I think natural pregnancies, a lot of time, they don't scan till 8 - 10 weeks. But for us, because we're higher risk I guess, it's important. I don't know.
All this talk of soup is making me drool. All I had today was 3 ham and cheese bagels and a plate of pasta for dinner!
