If you are a first time mom, some will only feel the movements much later. Dont worry...especially if everything is fine during the scan. Maybe your baby is very gently in his/her movements :)

Oh..mine was only 300g at 21 weeks. Oh, is my baby too small??
Hi rukia,

No la. U can't determine wherther a baby is heavy or not at this early stage. :) baby grow very fast starting from 24wks. Have u start your tonic stuff (bird nest.. Cordyceps??) I have been taking since 16wks. :) I believe in taking slowly on this don't pressure ur baby by eating alot. Every child grow at different time... So allOw ur baby to grow slowly !! Jia you !!

Hi

I am a first time mum too ! :) I believe that baby is 1st time coming to this world also.. So u must be strong and encourage baby instead of worrying too much that also affect baby! :) of cos I am worried n scared at times .. But u must learn to be strong & react fast to protect ur little one.. Then worrying too much u feel lost & end up both u n baby stress !! Logical??

When u feel worried or scared.. U r not alone ... Talk to baby sing to baby !! Soon u forget all the worries !! Jiayou mummies !!

I didnt take any tonic stuff. The last time i asked my gynae he told me not to take those chinese tonics (e.g. Lingzhi and Cordyceps) on my own.

Anyway, I dont like the taste of chinese tonics :p

Wanted to take chicken essence, but waiting for my hubby to accompany me to supermarket, so that he can carry it back for me...keke...

I have no cravings yet. Do you have any cravings? I think my baby is a small eater. I could eat much more before I was pregnant..haha

Yeah..lets all keep a positive mindset. Sometimes i worry alot about my baby as well. Especially when I am alone, no one to talk to, I will think of alot of things. Now i try to distract myself by tidying the house, baking and chatting on mummysg..keke.

Hi rukia,

Tonic are not to be take during 1st trimester.. That's why ur gynae say cannot !
I am not a fan of tonic also ... But it helps in boosting ur health & baby ! Whenever after taking cordyceps baby will be very active keeping moving.
Take bird nest for protein.

If you are eating not so much in pregnancy ... The more u should boost your nutrient level by taking tonic .. Baby absorb very well & will gain weight very fast !

I don't have any craving tru out my pregnancy just normal meals. Actually personally I think those bottle chicken essence doesn't help that much . Good chicken essence r those self boiled... Buy chicken put in slow cooker.. 3 bowls of water cooked into 1 bowl. This way u will get the nutrients & calcium from the chicken.

I asked my gynae during my second trimester, but he still advise me not to take. Well, maybe I can try the chicken essence first.

Was thinking if i should invest in those double boiler or slow cooker would be better? Can use it to boil soup during confinement as well..

:) oh.. Maybe your gynae don't believe in taking tonic! :) slow cooker will be enough... Now people selling double boiler make people think that double boiler is for use of double boil soup!! Wrong !!!! Its about the way you cook.. Amount of water.. Amount of good stuff ... A simple boiler will do !

I am taking bird nest & cordyceps cook with black chicken every week ! :) if your baby doesn't gain weight in later stage you can try taking some
