Finally everything for baby is set up, washed and ready… Now, I just need to go source for my own stuff.. I still need nursing bras, moisturizing cream and meet up with my dietitian for my confinement menu.
I have spoken to my dietitian and she has suggested for me to delve away from the traditional chinese confinement food as I have gestational diabetes.. The traditional food fare is really heaty, with lotsa oil and ginger being used. We are also not allowed fruits and water. The type of vegetables allowed is also limited. Finally, we were not allowed to bathe for 1 whole month. Suffering for that 1 month doesnt really appeal to me, again.. Because I want to break free of all the weight, postpone the dreaded diabetes until many many years later and I want to breastfeed without going through the postnatal blues..
So this time round, I am hoping to go western with vegetables I like, fruits and drink as much water as I want. Also, I intend to start light exercising and activities once i feel up to it. And i have the intention to bathe daily!~ Lolz.. Opps.. Shh.. Better dun let the elderly folks find out..
Now all we need is the baby.. So baby, is it time for you to show up yet??
