Prayhard,

it is good to keep your body warm. just like wearing slippers, wear thick clothes etc. cos from my last m/c experience, i realised that my womb was very cold... my mum will made me pig's stomach soup for my mini-confinement then. i took it for 2 weeks... also no problem. my DH who was so greedy, shared one half bowl with me, took it, and had fever the same night. lolz.. from then on, i tried to drink more herbal soups. but no cold drinks, or ice-cream for me.

Wow the pig stomach soup so heaty ! Haha...poor DH. Just to share, I havent drank a cup of cold drink, eat ice cream and my favourite Yami yogurt for some 3 years already. Take a lot of time to get used to it. After sometime, i am so used to it

Just Faith, Gan,

Thanks for the advice

Initially when started taking the wolfberries + red dates drink, I have a bit of sore throat. Stop for 2 days, start drinking again and stop for another 2 days...slowly train my body to get used to the drink...last 2 days after taking the durian, got headache today..faint..now taking a lot of plain water...

I intend to buy a pair of nice & pretty home slippers so will have the urge to wear them at home leh..do you know where to get? Asked my dh to buy...he said can't find...


Just Faith,
Before my IVF last Dec, I always have this feeling that my womb is quite cold, esp AF is coming...but I didn't go for TCM despite my mum keeps telling me to do so...after my failed IVF, I went to see Dr Zou, she asked me to monitor my body temp...think after nearly 3 months with her, I feel my womb is warmer now...I also dun take cold drinks and ice-cream..actually lucky for me cos I can't take cold drinks & ice-cream..I will LS if I take them...
 
nancy, ur good!! I only stop drinking cold water after i failed my fresh cycle in dec...hmm but sometimes i see dh eat ice cream, i will ask him let me have 1 bite. Can't resist temptation
 
Nancy, ya, it was super-duper heaty!!! Mum added lota peppers. Mum says during confinement, our womb needs alot of heaty stuff to warm it.

But on normal days, dun overtake it. Think once a week okay.

Gan
I totally understand the temptation. Actually cold stuff is not good for anyone esp woman. Not only for us TTC, but it actually no good for the stomach. Learnt some TCM after seeing so many chinese dr. Haha....hope all these efforts will pay off

Final results on thursay . Ta dah!!
 
Nancy,

Now you mentioned the Yami Yogurt..is my favourite, I took them in the risk of having LS. Now, I always tried my best to avoid the Yami Yogurt stall in Plaza Sing...now I feel like having them...I like the Melon favour..yummy...
 
Prayhard, I only met Dr Zou once, after my m/c last year. Dun think she was that good, thats why I didnt follow her. And I dread those medicine. And I cant keep going for accupuncture but dun eat her medicine right? I prefer those brewed medicine. People says it is bitter but I prefer the brewed medicine than powdered type. Anyway, the purpose of accupuncture is the same. To keep the womb warm.

Maybe I should monitor my bbt tomorrow.. been a long time since I do that.
 
Gan, my hubby stopped ordering cold drinks whenever I am with him... very understanding of him. Told him I cant take cold drinks, so he must support me ... hehehee.
 
I still drink semi-cool drinks ... like remove the ice type ... cos some drinks are hard to drink warm .. like ribena ...
 
Prayhard, i got a pair from a shop at Causeway Point, bt dunno wht kind u consider nice... the shop sells alot of bags tht are themed with different animals.. the bedroom slippers also the same. bought a pair tht one side has a pink cap cute puppy and the other side is blue cap puppy. its very soft and comfortable also.

alternatively, which i find easier, is to wear non slip socks the whole day...which is what i m doing at home now..
 
PandaWife,

I think I watched too much Taiwan drama..I told my dh I want those with cute cute animals one..example rabbit head with long ears..hahaha...

Think maybe can try wearing socks..normal socks or socks we wear in cold country?
 
hahaha.. those kind usually is furry type right??
the one i bought its cotton ...washable.. coz i allergic to furry things...

the socks ah, depends on ur comfort level on wearing them... i bought both types to try..hehe..the cold country one too thick for day way ...warm...even at night if i not using air con..also find it too thick...so i wear normal kind...bt buy non slip...better and safer esp during 2ww.

Lactose intolerance is the inability to metabolize lactose, because of a lack of the required enzyme lactase in the digestive system. It is estimated that 75% of adults worldwide show some degrees of this condition

Dairy products like milk, cheese and yougurt contains lactose.

Just went downstairs for a walk, guess what ? I cant fit into the shorts i usually wear !! Imagine the amount of weight i put the past 12 days Haha......eat, watch tv and sleep

I think i am bored to be alone at home that i kept eating and eating today but never seems to be full...thursday wonder if my work pants still fit me.
 
PandaWife,

Yaya..I am looking for those furry type one? But I worry that I am only "3 min hot" leh and will throw them aside later...think I better start wearing my socks first...

Nancy,
I think maybe..I know I will have LS when I take cold drinks and ice-cream..and I dun take milk and cheese also..very troublesome, rite?

Think both of u are in 2ww now...hope both will be BFP this time
