Final Countdown

[January84]

1 week 1 coconut is enuff le.... so that when BB come out not that yellow...

me too, giddy easily, cannot stand for more then 5 minutes, if not i will faint, or if i kip walking, will have giddy spells too..... then heartbeat at 130/m.....

Btw, when can we start drinking coconut drink ya?
2 weeks before EDD? or 4 weeks before?

my aunts and cousins all told me to take 1-2 (2 max) coconuts about 2 weeks before due.
so as to 1) have smooth delivery & 2) have a cleaner baby (clearer complexion) - less heaty baby.
not sure if it is true but i will try take one this or next weekend...:tlaugh:

Haz, have been feeling very heaty recently, pimples start popping out liao.

Have been suffering from bad Heatburn these few night. So frustrating!
Plus vomited last night (maybe due to my cough).So Sad. :embarrassed:

ya lor, what is heart burn ah? i also dun know.
tell me about it.
me also suspect my itchy tummy, hands and legs could also be due to heatiness too. i start to have constipation now also. seems like it tougher during this trimester leh.

did you eat something wrong? my doc once told me to be careful not to have diarrhoea and vomitting. if it get too frequent, must tell doc.
last time, i have diarrhoea (LS) twice, lasting me 2-3 days. my doc asked me to go back and check. you have to monitor your vomitting rate leh...
