Support group - Miscarriages

Good day ladies! I'm back to work today after 1 week medical leave to rest after the D&C... So much work! :eek:

The homemade chicken essence is really very heaty... Do take note! My MIL made twice for me last week and plus all the confinement food I took and the red date tea, and wow, I had very painful constipation! LOL! So ya, do drink lotsa of water.
 


Receive my HCG report... It already drop.... Good closure for us now.

Btw... What u girl did during confinement? Honest speaking, during my last 2 MC I didn't have anyone to help my confinement and i didn't have the energy to do those cooking... So alway I only drink red date, longan with ginger tea... But recently I check with tsb... She advise me not to drink it wor... Duno wat the reason. Maybe ginger tea will fine right? This time I will be guai guai and do whatever I can do tiao my body during confinement time.
 
During my last appt with TSB and before I went for D&C, I asked TSB if I need to drink red date tea, she didn't say "don't drink" but she said plain water is fine as long as it's not cold drinks. But the confinement food I ordered comes with red date tea for every meal, so I just take that only to replace water during the one week mini confinement I did. I also wore socks and slippers at home.. Haha! I'm kiasu but I don wanna take chances when I'm old next time then I regret.

My last 2 MC I didn't do a proper confinement but I did cook dishes using lotsa sesame oil, like sesame chicken.

Oh, I only drank it twice last week, 2 days in a row.. The 2nd time my MIL added in some DOM too. She used black chicken. She told me last night still got 1 chicken left and will cook it for me tonight or tomorrow night.. Haha
 
Maybe aft D&C we will still be bleeding, so red date is not advise... Bcos it boost the blood and might cause more bleeding... I remember my previous TCM recommend me drink ginger water with brown sugar during menses period... The TCM saying brown sugar helps to thicken the lining.... Will try that instead... Got to buy sock liao... Piang! Under such a terrible weather, I sure kena hongkong feet... Lol..!!
 
I so many mc I didn't do any confinement at all, that's why tcm says my strong body also turned weak. then I told my mum this ganna scolding like anything. coz she wants to cook I say don't want. lol I continue coke, ice cream etc. just to make myself happy. lol now mum make red date drink for me, she says pregnant still can drink to replace water so I guai guai follow.
 
Hmm, I don think so ley... Cos so far my bleeding has stopped le, much earlier than I expected. But just a little tiny spotting only, that's it. But I got alot of wind ah... Really alot!! LOL

Haha, don buy those thick socks, normal ones can le... :D

Btw... During confinement. Does anyone still shower? Hahaha!
I can endure anything but shower is a must for me! Under such a weather, plus I have super oily scalp... I cannot imaging few weeks of not bathing.. Gosh..!! Haha!
 
Hopefully mum,
Yes yes... Be good good girl. Endure only for 9 mth.. After that carry ur bb is all worth it.
Whenever I have craving for ice cream, I will ask myself.. Do I wan bb or ice cream more? *^^*
 
I tik ladies nowadays sure,shower n wash hair during confinement.. unlike our parent time, no wash hair I will die man... just that I use warm water instead of cold water when shower n wash hair
 
One of my Fren dun wash her hair during her confinement... So she will alway bundle her hair up and even sleep... Bow my head to them... I couldn't endure even for 1 day...
 
wah that sounds disgusting. if here is winter country still not so bad. HELLO its HOT AND WET AND HUMID SINGAPORE!!
lol

erm erm erm I had cravings last night so I drank chocolate milkshake. yes I know im already spotting, and im guilty :(
 
haha ya u know my hubby terrible leh. he says u eat loh, anything happy u don't cry wah he threaten me. I say ang mos also okay why I cannot. he says too bad u are in SG, and ur history no good so still don't take care then how.
 
Haha, I showered everyday ah! How to tahan this kind of weather?

Ya, ang mohs don do confinement de... But then our body is already so weak as compared to them, so better do. Ang mohs' 体制 is stronger than Asians, IMO. Anyway no harm is done when we do it.

Don't think abt it first. Let's get that stick to turn positive then worry abt the rest later. How much steroids would u need? Mine is 10mg per day but that's coz I am actually clear of nk cells.

They say ivig very ex right?

That time Dr Anita told me, actually IVI is still on trial mode.. Tat why she didn't let me test on it... I duno IVIG is under the same medical...

I cannot. As much I believe abt the links with cold womb etc and despite do many miscarriages I think must cut myself some slack. Enjoy life a bit lol that's me lah.

I will probably go bongus us and my hub will probably ask me to quit ttc altogether. Cox he will feel I not myself anymore though it's for a better cause.

Like now preggie then he act up on me Loh. Abt cold drinks. Sigh man. Say csnnot drink wait harm the womb. When have then they change. When no have they tell me nvm just enjoy. Lol

Why men like that ah?? Lol
He likes buffet but I don't like. Cox I don't eat much. So to me it's a waste of money. But high tea somehow I can eat lol.

So we hardly buffet and high tea together.
 
Actually my hubby doesn't like high tea, he prefer buffet... Lol! So I'm quite surprised oso that he didn't say no! It will be our first time doing high tea... So far I've only done it with my gfs too.. Haha
