A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
One of my blog readers commented in my blog that I should get some herbs to clear Baby’s urinary tract system of bacteria from the Chinese Medicine Hall. Well, I sent the hubs to buy a few packets of Chinese herbs from the Chinese Medicine Hall and have them boiled immediately. After a day of…
My mum is suspecting that Baby’s frequent UTI could be due to what I eat, in particular shell food and raw sushi. In the past, each time Baby had a urinary tract infection, my mum would help me track back on what I had eaten. 2 times in the past I had eaten raw sushi…
I have been feeding Baby with pure psyllium husk for about 2 weeks now to provide relief for her constipation problem. Each day, I will sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of psyllium husk into her soup, twice a day. Though she still cannot move her bowels every single day, at least her poop is not rock…
Two days ago Baby’s pee was cloudy, had lots of particles floating inside and smelled a little foul. I am all too familiar with the first few symptoms of a UTI. The moment I noticed the cloudy pee, I have been forcing tons of water down Baby’s throat. I boiled some barley water with a…
Baby has been facing constipation for the past 2 weeks. In the past, she hardly had constipation, well perhaps once in a blue moon. Lately the constipation is quite bad.

She loves munching on raw celery, raw capsicum, raw cucumber, cooked leek and leek flowers, onions, mushrooms and even durians. Here she is munching on a celery stick. She’s not the only one who loves raw celery, even Alycia and Sherilyn love…

Remember my previous post pertaining to the black dot on Baby’s eye white? I managed to capture a closer picture of another greyish patch on Baby’s right eye white. Here it is: Please double click on the image for a larger view. The picture is a tad blur as I don’t have a high-end camera…
Baby C has several tiny black dots on her eye white on both her eyes. I have asked our pediatricians about it and they had all told me that the black dots are like moles and pigmentation and are usually nothing harmful. I have one greyish spot on the white of my right eye too….
One of Baby’s favorite food is keiji / wolfberries / Goji berries. I normally toss a handful of goji berries into her porridge and soup. I use goji berries to steam chicken too and the chicken dish tastes really good. She can eat about 6-8 berries from her soup in one sitting. I guess she…
