I ate chicken, eggs, pork, fish and pig's trotter during my confinement.. As for veggies, my mum only say cannot eat cabbage, and kang kong.. As for dark sauce, she tried not to put. I didn't take ginger, and carrots cuz my gynae said ginger more or less can lead to bb's jaundice thru breastmilk.

Ya, the most important food will be fish (helps to increase breastmilk)..
