Hi sbc - how did it go with dr anandakumar? Hope all is good?

Hi tvh - I'm waiting for coco shambhala to re-open at Delfi on 15th and will take one trial class to see how it is. Ya lah... Like quite Sian to go back CBd on sat and parking is ex some more!! But somehow going to orchard feels better :p Which part of tanjong pagar do u know?

Dear Littlej
Went to see Dr Anandakumar yesterday. We did a genetic ultrasound (2hours of scanning). He concluded that baby is fine, no signs of risk and this brings my risk down by alot. I decide not to go for Amnio as Dr Ananda says that the risk of me miscarriage is higher than me having a Downs baby. Besides, there is still a 21weeks scan which can pick up more details. Feel much better seeing Dr Ananda... he is definitely someone i would recommend for second opinion. :)

Yes we cant eat half boil eggs, every time im seeing my hubby eating and i drool ........... sad
Most people advice against eating anything fermented chinese food like century eggs + salted eggs + fermented bean curd which goes nice with porridge
 

huiqin83

Member
oh no, i already took salted eggs a few times!!

half boil egg, salad all cannot. stay away from any food that is not 100% cook.

huiqin83 its ok, since you didn know and I think salted eggs mostly due to high sodium.
These are all the things i wanna eat :( but most people says it contains preservatives or too much salt and zero nutritional value which is not good for the baby.
