me too. I had lots of weird dreams also. Is this normal or what? Think our brain is overworking or something la.. I have another 8 wks to 40 weeks. I wish it wld fly!! I feel like how i felt during my first trimester. I felt like it was soo slow and time was crawling. 2nd trimester, everything went off in a blur.. and third trimester, everything seems to be crawling again. Groans!

my mum allow me to bath in warm water or herb on hot weather. but cant wash hair for 1 mth!! she say nvr bath is like a walking virus. hahaha. actually all this tradition confinement is passes down from the pass where china(maybe) is cold, hard to have hot water everyday. just keep urself warm, dun get cold can le. but for hair think i will follow cos my grandmum last time very powerful!! she go wash hair during confinement, she got very bad headaches everytime, until once someone ask she to take those duck egg w/ fetus inside. she eat alot w/ herb for a long time then recover!! now hard to get this type of egg, dun think we dare to eat also.. eeek

I am curious. Do you have to follow any confinement restrictions?

I do have confinement restrictions but its different from the chinese ones. We don't have to NOT bathe and etc. We are allowed to bathe and wash our hairs but we're put on very strict diets.

You make your own chicken essence or just the one in the bottle? What could it help in 3rd Tri? give more energy?

Caramel is sugar. Is 1 of ingredient inside. I got GD, so have to control my sugar intake
Yup, better control our sugar intake as mummies prone to high sugar level during pregnancy. For me, I dun really fancy the taste of chicken essence so never tk any. My mum typically will cook either black chicken soup or bird nest when I go back for dinner once a week. Other than this, I never take any other tonics.

Lucky the confinement lady I engaged pretty modern le. She told me can shower but muz used boiled water wif herbs. Else if breast feed also not hygienic. I am so happy to hear this. My mum n mil stil ok le. Dun think they will hv much regulations for me during the confinement period. Think only thing I hv to follow is the confinement food for 1 mth. I typically dun tk sesame chicken, pig trotter etc but for this 1 mth period, I will try my best to cooperate. Think after this 1 mth I can imagine all the extra kgs on me. Wonder if I can ever shed off these kgs.
