Veniz and iamsnow,
Thank you. I am feeling better now, after telling my friends and hubby how mean is that supplier.
Jesslyn,
Strange leh, I have resend my email to you last night. You still cant receive?
*touch wood* I dun have dry and itchy breasts, but have sore breasts. I think maybe you can try to apply some moisturiser on your breasts so that they are not so dry. Get those olive oil cream which is richer. I think it can help.
iamsnow,
Dun drink too much sweetened drinks during pregnancy.
Try to drink more plain water.
Cheekymonkey,
Anmum chocolate flavour tastes good, but it's very "heaty" ... cannot drink everyday.
When heaty, will cause headache, constipation and pimples.
Now I cannot drink ... miss the chocolate milk and soya bean milk. *drooling*
I usually dun drink milk unless I cant sleep at night. I will fall asleep when I drink milk (like sleeping pill to me).
Hubby always says that I am like a baby.
Ladies,
*Faint* just now a customer said that she noticed that my bigger tummy liao ... hmmm ... cannot hide for long ...

Actually I'm drinking HL milk in the morning. But somehow drinking a cold cup of milk makes me feel a bit cold.... esp so early in the morning....
Luz, i've also heard abt dou hua also. It's my favourite breakfast. I have it weekly. but after hearing that it's not good for pregnant mtb, I stop taking immediately once I knew I was pregnant..... not sure what's the logic behind also....

Hi ladies, I am back from my first scan. Today is the first day of my 6th week and I can see yolk sac with baby's heartbeat. Too bad its not twins (which I had secretly wished for) but then, one more is good enough. Doc even thanks me for contribution to Govnt budget of getting 6.4 mil of Singaporeans. I almost fainted with this thanks.
Jesslyn, I am also born on 1979, so your chinese age is 29. Now, you think back, when is the possible date you conceived (date will be after your last menses lar)and then, you search through a calendar with lunar one stated, and check the date against the lunar one. if lunar calendar states in 8th month (example lar) then you go check chart of 29 and 8th mth to see if boy or gal. Hope you understand the above. If not, send email to me at [email protected] and I will do checking for you first time on Monday morning (coz I dun have lunar calendar at home).

Hi kylene and newbies, welcome!
Glad to hear starmoon stop her spotting liao.
I can't drink milk so I get doc to prescribe calcium pills for me. Even soybean milk I dun feel like drinking. Only milo is fine with me.
Jesslyn, I also have such feeling one, but not very painful one rite? Its normal i think. You will get this more often when your baby is growing inside you.

G6PD Deficiency
is an inherited condition in which the body doesn't have enough of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, or G6PD, which helps red blood cells (RBCs) function normally. This deficiency can cause hemolytic anemia, usually after exposure to certain medications, foods, or even infections. Now it was found that - Brown Beans can cause this condition too.

The best way to care for a child with G6PD deficiency is to limit exposure to the triggers of its symptoms. With the proper precautions... "NO CURE".

Symptoms of G6PD Deficiency
A child with G6PD deficiency who is exposed to a medication or infection that triggers the destruction of RBCs may have no symptoms at all. In more serious cases, a child may exhibit symptoms of anemia (also known as a hemolytic crisis), including:
paleness (in darker-skinned children paleness is sometimes best seen in the mouth, especially on the lips or tongue)
extreme tiredness
rapid heartbeat
rapid breathing or shortness of breath
jaundice, or yellowing of the skin and eyes, particularly in newborns
an enlarged spleen
dark, tea-colored urine
Once the trigger is removed or resolved, the symptoms of G6PD deficiency usually disappear fairly quickly, typically within a few weeks.

hi littlemini

regarding the dou huay, it is no good cos they use "shi gao" to solidify it...soya bean milk is ok to drink though. i usually alternate that with milk cos if not sianz to drink milk everyday lah.

Hi Sparks,
What are brown beans? Normally use to cook with what?
This sounds scary.
Jesslyn,
I also heard from my friends that dou hua is not suitable for pregnant women due to one ingredient include to "harden" it.
My hubby said then beancurd and toufu also cannot eat. I have been avoiding all these food since week 4.
I only start to love soya bean milk during pregnancy (baby's craving ... not me).
I personally love beancurd ... but I have to bear with it cos of baby.
iamsnow,
My mum said that soya bean milk is good for baby's complexion, dunno how true.
bb08,
Red date with gou qi zi is good for baby's complexion, but must remove the seed of the red date then wont be too heaty.
I think it will be better to start drinking after 1st Trimester, cos baby is developing now.
My mil brewed dunno what tonic, I dun wan to drink, and had a "fight" with my hubby.
I am now taking diarrhoea and gastric medicine, and also folic acid and pregnavit pills.
Now mixed with the tonic, anything happen is not my fault.
Damn pissed off.

Is it safe to eat peanuts during pregnancy?
The BabyCentre Editorial Team answers:
The UK government recommends that certain women avoid eating peanuts while they are pregnant. You are advised to avoid peanuts if you, your baby's father, or one of your previous children has had an allergic reaction to something. Allergic conditions include:
eczema
asthma
hayfever
any allergic response (rashes, itches, bumps) if you've eaten food such as strawberries, shellfish, or peanuts.
It is only peanuts that should be avoided by some women - other nuts, such as brazil, hazelnuts, walnuts or cashew nuts are perfectly safe.
An allergic reaction is when the body over-responds to a particular substance: this can cause breathing problems, wheezing, skin conditions, and other symptoms. Peanut allergy is a growing problem in the UK. Approximately one in 200 four-year-old children has a peanut allergy; most children will develop the problem before their third birthday. Peanut allergy can cause a severe reaction called anaphylactic shock in which the allergic person has such trouble breathing that they die.
Before an allergy can develop, a child first has to come into contact with small traces of peanut. This initial contact sensitises the child so that she later has a severe allergic reaction when she eats peanuts or foods containing peanuts.
Some experts now think that this initial sensitisation may occur during pregnancy, when a tiny amount of the peanut protein crosses the placenta, although there is no definitive evidence to prove this yet and further research is needed. However, it is because peanut allergy is an increasing problem -- and such a serious one - that the government has advised that women with an allergic condition or who know that there is one in the family should avoid peanuts while pregnant or breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding gives your baby protection against many infections; exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of your baby's life helps decrease her risk of allergies in the early years of life. However, if you eat peanuts, there is a small chance that your baby will come into contact with traces of peanut through your milk.
If you decide to avoid peanuts while pregnant or breastfeeding, you need to avoid not only peanuts themselves (which are also sometimes called monkey nuts or groundnuts), but also products which may contain them. These include:
peanut butter
cereals, cakes, muesli, biscuits, some salad dressings, ice cream, and breads - always read the packaging label carefully for information on the ingredients
dishes in restaurants - either ask if peanuts have been included or choose a simple meal which contains no 'hidden' ingredients
Your supermarket may be able to provide you with a list of the nut-free products it produces and sells.
