A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Baby gets bored with a type of food pretty easily, so I have to think of new food for her all the time, loooooong sigh….. She no longer wants her baby biscuits now – she would turn her head when offered a biscuit or she would hammer the biscuit on the table till it…
Since infant, Sherilyn has been a very constipated child. When she was a newborn, she would only poo poo once in 8-10 days, which got me worried sick. But when she finally poo pooed, it was explosive and she normally spent a good 15-30 minutes pooping lots. All these years up until now, Sherilyn needs to drink lots…
I recently came across a new range of bread and buns for the health conscious called Baker Brown produced by Wholewheat Choice Sdn Bhd. Most of the Baker Brown bread and buns are made from wholewheat. I got a loaf of multi-seed wholewheat bread the other day. A loaf costs RM5.50. According to what is…
After 3 days of torture, the Mastitis on my left boop cleared up completely yesterday, yipee!! Here’s what I did : 1) Let Baby suckle on the left boop longer and also the whole night *looooooong sigh*. 2) Massaged my left boop with ice-cubes 3 times a day. 3) Popped Garlic pills with added Lecithin….
I am attacked by a third nasty Mastitis and this time, I am down with fever. The pain and swell this time round is at the top of my left boop. The previous 2 times, it was on the lower left boop. It’s so painful this time that I could barely jog yesterday morning. Being a determined…
I told ya Baby C is a health freak baby. I gave her a small slice of stir-fried celery the other day and she loved it more than any of her baby biscuits, unbelievable! I was really surprised that she likes celery as this veggie tend to have a rather unappealing smell and taste but…
During Baby C’s 3-week stay in the hospital recently, she had gone through many types of scans from countless x-rays to a Fluoroscopy, ultrasound scans, a CT Scan and even an Echo Heart Scan! That explains how our bill amounted to over RM50k! During that period of time, I cannot tell you how terribly…
This is my breakfast today: 2 slices of toasted multi-grain bread with light Philadelphia cheese spread, avocado and Steffi’s sugar-free peanut butter. This light Philadelphia cheese spread is supposedly 80% less fat than butter or margerine, but it tastes good! And this President garlic cheese spread tastes even better. I love it and it goes…
I am not a fan of aubergines (or eggplant or brinjal) and I only like them when they are stuffed with fish paste and lightly pan-fried. Grilling / roasting them or BBQing them with a drizzle of olive oil are also acceptable but I hardly ever buy them from the market or the supermarket. But…
When I was a young girl (before turning into a teenager), I used to have frequent break-outs of very painful and huge pus-filled boils. I had boils on my buttocks, under my eyes, on my cheek and frequently had them inside, outside and on my nose! Back then, I wasn’t a health freak yet and…
