Prayhard,
dont worry abt the booklet thingy. think it should be issued to you at yr nx visit.
i didnt take any pao sheng during 1st tri. only chicken essence from bottles or those home-made chicken essence.
in second tri, i only take pao sheng to "ti-sheng" once in a while. but i take bird's nest since 1st tri...

Prayhard,
i just checked with my mum who's my tcm expert. she say pao sheng got different grades. the very young ones r more 'cooling', but still not that cooling until hv to avoid, esp if u only drink once in awhile. so when u buy pao sheng just check with the tcm ppl there.

get 1 black/kampong chix... can ask the market seller to help u remove the skin.. after tht when u go home, hv to smash the chix bones leh..coz we want to get the essence from the bones...

ingredients
half a black chicken, remove skin if u want. abt 7-8 slices of pao sheng and/or cordyceps.
abt 3-4 red dates and a small handful of wolfberries (optional)
method 1
put all the ingredients in a double boiler.
add one rice bowl of water.
double boil over slow fire for 2 hrs.
yields abt one rice bowl of soup.
method 2
put all the ingredients in a rice bowl and overturn into the double boiler. meaning all the ingredients will be under the bowl.
add abt half rice bowl of water or no water even.
double boil for abt 2 hrs.
yields abt half a rice bowl of essence.

Tickles,
cos only use half a black chicken and one bowl of water mah.
if u want to make more then use the whole chicken and more water lah....
that's how i make lah cos my hb dun drink all this one...so i only make enuff for myself
u will need a double boiler, if yr cl is going to make tonic soup for u then she will ask for double boiler too, so better go prepare one.

Currently 31 week , my edd is 16 nov but most likely c sect cos of low placenta previa.
Dr loh suggest to me before maybe early nov can c sect. But all depend on the position of my bb. Will only see him next wed at tps. Then will access my condition.

Pandawife,
Still got abt 1 mth plus to go before I can see and hold my bb in my arm.
Don worry ur turn will come. Ya I think once reach oct those due on nov mummies will be excited n really counting down.
Too bad I can't move ard too much. I'm given hospitalize leave for a mth to bed rest at home due to early contraction last mth. Can't do shopping now too. Luckily, most of the big items n stuffs all I bought earlier on. If not I will be very stress by now.

Baby,
Mine is singleton. Mine is total previa.
According to Dr loh is that if placenta wont moveup and covered totally the cervix. will have to c sect.
Ya Dr loh discourage me to move ard and bedrest at home.
I think if early nov will be in my 37 or 38 weeks.

Hi ladies,
anyone know of any upcoming baby fairs in Oct/Nov?

Baby, I've tried brazilian before. Then once I started this cycle, I din continue.
It is very painful and it also depends on the waxer. If she is experienced and good then it will be less painful. If not, it's damn painful! Once, i kenna an inexperienced lady and to my horror, there were traces of blood there when i wiped with my tissue! If they don't do it properly, can also cause in-grown hair and sometimes infection if really bad.
It definately is better than shaving as the hair growth really reduces after that.
But if I were you, i wouldn't take the risk now la. Unless it's an experienced person whom I have tried before. Also, it can be quite difficult to do this now when you are almost full term. The back part, need to turn over and all. I can't imagine how it will be done for pregnant ladies.

Baby,
When I'm in week 27 I'm hospitalized due to early contraction at interval of 5 min. Hence dr loh want me to complete bed rest for a mth cos he scared if I walk too much again contraction come too early may be risky for bb.
Ya he did comment that mine unlikely will move up too.
So I just listen to him complete bedrest except going for his appt then I leave hse.

Fashion spree,
If Dr Loh told you that you have 90% chance of going for C-section, then probably you won't need to test for Group B strep now. He told me that if I'm having C-section, it's not necessary to have anti-biotic drip even though I have Group B Strep as baby won't pass thru vaginal and there's no chance of getting infected.
Dr Loh told me that if I want to go for C-section, most likely he'll arrange it on 29Oct when I'm 37 week. Have you started wahing all the bb clothes? My hubby asked me to start packing my hospital bag now but I want to wait for a few weeks more. Do you start to feel the excitement since it's only 5weeks more? I think my hubby is more excited and 'gan cheong' than me. I still hope to keep the 2 bbs inside for as long as possible.

Tickles,
If u wanna make chix essence at home, get an essence pot. I got mine from HDB shop in Pasir Ris. I think the price now is $30+
U need boneless kampung chix meat. Remove all bones and skin. Old Ginger juice. Few red dates (optional)
Simmer for 4 hours. U will get 1 small bowl of chix essence.
