Herbal Soup

[hbhbhb]

Hi!
Any mummies who accidentally took herbal soup with dang gui inside during early pregnancy?
Is it OK if accidentally took this kind of soup once a week for 2 weeks during pregnancy?
Thanks!

@hbhbhb I think it's not suitable to drink the soup with dang gui during early pregnancy...Because dang gui will boost your blood circulation and uterus-stimulating and this may affect your developing baby. It’s best to avoid it during pregnancy.

Thanks Vivian.. actually i accidentally drank it during week 5 and 6. And by week 10 gynae said bb growth is too slow, too tiny and no heartbeat, and then i miscarried by week 11. I am wondering if it is due to my carelessness of drinking the soup made with dang gui and other herbs. I keep blaming myself everyday. I am hoping someone would tell me it's ok to take dang gui and my miscarriage is not due to that. Then i will stop blaming myself and stop blaming the person who made the soup for me.

I feel really sorry when I heard this news @hbhbhb ....

I can understand how you feel because I also miscarried once... I lost my baby by week 8 and I was so sad and desperate. As a woman who has the same experience as you, I hope you not to think too much and just leave the tea with dang gui behind because so many reasons may cause miscarriage, not just one. Please do not blame yourself and others. The most important thing right now is to have healthy diets to revitalize your lost energy, get enough rest and think positively.

You have to take a good care of yourself during this time.This is so important women need strong and healthy body to conceive again. I tried to drink some Traditional Chinese Medicine soup like Sheng Hua Soup and concentrated chicken essence to increase my vital energy, and I hope these information can help you a lot~~
