I heard birdnest can start after 5th mth. Tonic can drk but start slow like twice a week but rem tonics some can some cannot. I took normal herbal chicken soup w black chick. Maybe i should try to brew red dates w gouqi w ginger just like that for replnish iron. My gynae stop me from folic and ask me take multivits. Then constipation... Fish oil also started but i still on hormonal pills cos frequent pains and cramps which the hormonal pills does help to ease

My baby bump started to show as this will be my 17th week :001_302:

My gynae prescribe me Obimin and fish oil. I am taking one tablet of Obimin a day and the nurse said fish oil could be taken after 20 weeks. Does anyone still continue 5mg folic acid when enter their second trimester? My nurse said Obimin contain Folic Acid so the 5mg Folic acid could be discontinued. Besides having supplements, I am taking EnfaMum a glass a day to have enough calcium and other phytonutrients. I am having red dates+guo qi ji + boiled egg brewed soup once a week to have more iron.

Does anyone start to take tonic soup or birdnest or other supplement? Mind to share?

hello smilem, sometimes I drink 100 plus to relieve the headache.. But make sure the iron intake is enough because the blood supply to brain might be reduced (cause vessel to dilate and higher pressure that cause headache) since we need to supply blood to our bb..

Ms saggi, any particular reason of losing weight?
Well, I guess it's my pattern of eating ? Eversince I got pregnant, I only eat a very small portion of food no matter how hungry I am or no matter how much I crave for that particular food..
Well, hopefully my appetite will come back soon..... ;)

Try to use better brand for hair treatment, e.g: Shiseido.. The chemicals inside those dye could penetrate into your hair follicles and accumulate onto your hair scalp. If you do have more sensitive skin during pregnancy then you have better watch out the itchness or other side effects..
