The report for the urine culture done on Friday was out on Monday. The WBC (white blood cells) have come down from 10-15 to 2-4. Also, the Klabsiella bacteria is no longer in the urine… praise the Lord! But there is still a scanty growth of E Coli bacteria in the urine… which both our nephrologist and pediatric…

Crazy Over Sesame Seeds
Who? Me of course! I love anything that’s healthy and wholesome. I love anything that has sesame seeds or sesame seed oil in them. I especially love to sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on my food – on my bowl of sugar-free yoghurt for breakfast, together with walnuts (a brain nourishing food) and other seeds and…
Our New Panasonic Water Filter
We bought a new water filter 2 weeks ago after I caught our maid putting un-boiled filtered tap water into our kettle used to store drinking water. One of the reasons that could have contributed to the E Coli bacteria entering Baby C’s body system, causing her frequent UTIs is through drinking water. E Coli…

I bought this can of flax seed powder from the orgnanic shop for Aly and Sher last week. It contains organic flax seed powder, organic soy protein, organic soy powder, cane sugar and Oligosaccharide. It is also rich in Omega 3, 6 and 9 – a heart and brain nourishing food. I meant to give…

He went to a few pharmacies but none of the pharmacies sell the Pureen brand of colostrum. So he bought a bottle of Nature’s Own brand of colostrum. The minute Alycia…
My Daily Fix = Smelling Soiled Diapers
Ever since Baby C had her first serious attack of Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) when she was just a few days shy of turning 2 months old, I have a phobia of smelling foul smelling pee in her diaper. Foul smelling pee means that there is most likely an infection in her urinary tract system….
Incontinence After My 3rd Cesarean
My first Cesarean went quite smoothly and I was already feeling great several hours after I was pushed out from the OT, albeit I was itchy all over my body and face and was still shivering, as a result of the spinal cord anesthetics. There wasn’t much pain either. My second post Cesarean (after a gap of…
