EDD May 2012 Mummies!

[Dilys]

According to my tcm doc. For people with weak stomach like me, we cannot take too much fruits or juices. Dunno why leh, but I did listen to him cos he helped stop my spotting despite me going to gynae to take jabs and duphaston during my first trimester. Was so grateful to him!

Btw, there's one more thing we should be weary. He mentioned white fungus as a big no no to pregnant women. He says though the medical books never say it is bad for expectant moms, he has personally seen 6 cases of miscarriages due to that. He banned that food for all his expectant patients.

Hi，

Chinese doc usually will follow all the Chinese Myth! If you visit a Chinese doc .. He will tell u almost everything cannot eat. fruits and juice are best for pregnancy.. U need vitamin c. White fungus is best for pregnancy Boiled with bird nest !!

Wow.. Maybe so happen that his 6 cases of miscarriage had taken white fungus so he determine that they r the cause!! But not true... My mum having 5 of us.. She has been taking alot of fruit juice(*water melon juice somemore), lot of white fungus also. We are all fine..

Miscarriage sometimes are out of no reasons....

Hi Dilys,

Understand where you come from. Just that I have a really weak disposition. Can't anyhow input food like the normal moms if not I end up in cramps and pains. He mentioned if I were ok bodied, I could just take anything and still have a healthy baby. So now instead of fruits, I have to replace with lots of vege.

My sis in the medical field explained it could be due to the fact that my body cannot even absorb nutrients properly. So taking Vit C pills and stuff gives no effect for me. Darn sian....

As for white fungus, he just wanted me to play safe and not take it since the cases he handled has linkages to it.

Now I onli drink warm water. No oily food also! Just eat plain congee or white bread! Scare the little one hungry! baby still very active inside! give a few kicks when I call him. So happy he is ok.

Yup these 2 herbal stuff I am able to drink along with a daily dose of tcm herb to boost up my health. Did help me a lot. Dr is hoping I can regain all the body strength then give me green light for fruits. Wah piangs.. nowadays even the simplest look of an apple can make me drool! The only fruit I have been given green light is the durian but not too huge amts.

I had a case of funneling cervix too just a while back... English Gynae gave me almost 10 over pills each day. For baby's sake, not only do I have to eat properly, I also have to keep taking meds... AH!!!
After delivery, I'm so going to chiong to eat my favorite laksa.

My god.. You are like me... I cannot take milk too.... Lactose intolerant.

But I drink Milo-O! Buy those tin canned ones and just make it with sugar?

She don know she is preg tat time, just feel very heaty. So it always better to play safe. ask for diff options

Gessim, I think tin-canned milo contains skimmed milk as well...but maybe the milk content is not that high...

For me, i like dessert, i always cook white fungus with red dates, longan and wolfberry , or beancurb skin with barley alomost every week, my mum said is good for baby skin.

now i seems like like sour and spicy food, laksa, penang laksa my fav, so far my stomach still ok. I only have stomachache when i eat too much fries prawn cracker, oily food or cold drink, so now i try to avoid cold drink except vitagen and yoghurt
