A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Thanks to everyone who commented in my earlier post – thanks for your advice and suggestions. After popping 2 more Panadol Actifast last night and slept at 10:30pm (which was considered very early for me), the throbbing pain on my head, teeth and jaw is gone today. I could even jog for half an hour and…
Me, it’s me being bitten real hard by the cold bug again, the dunno how many umpteenth times in 2 months. Never have I been this weak and susceptible to coughs and colds in my life. This time it’s pretty bad again. The phlegm is dark green, thick and sometimes hard too! Ewwww…. and it smells foul…
This is my sweetie-pie’s breakfast: From top clockwise : plain water, Millenium cactus juice with probiotics powder in yellow cup, freshly squeezed orange juice mixed with her other health supplements (that’s the only way she would willingly drink her yucky tasting supplements), 3/4 egg yolk of a free-range egg with unsalted butter and Gardenia white bread…
Baby C will be turning one in just a few days and I’m glad that I am still breastfeeding her. Though I’ve received unkind and uncalled for remarks from some people saying that breastmilk is of no value after 1 year, I am resolute to keep breastfeeding my sweetiepie until she’s 18 months, that is…
My sweetiepie is really one very, very tough and brave baby. Yesterday she was given her 7th and last jab on her butt, which is already swollen and covered with tiny holes…. poor, poor bubba! As usual, Alycia and my maid were distracting her with my handphone and a torchlight from the doctor’s table whilst the…
I’ve tried many brands of jar food and cereals for my sweetiepie but she just hates eating them. I know homemade food and porridge are by all means healthier and tastier but jar food and cereals are by all means so much more convenient, aren’t they? They’re God-sent for busy mummies. Sometimes when we need…
After getting a total of 5 jabs on her upper buttocks yesterday and today, both of Baby C’s buttocks are swollen. The injection sites feel hard and swollen and I tell you, my heart is crushed. During her bath just now, I used ice wrapped in a hanky to apply on the injection sites in…
My poor baby had 3 jabs on her buttocks today. In the morning, she had 1 Rocephine jab (which contains a huge vial of antibiotics, around 25ml) on one side of her buttock and 1 Gentamicin jab on the other side of her buttock. I pleaded with the nurse to do it really gently and…
Whenever I have buffet lunch or dinner, the dish that I will attack first is more often than not fish. I normally attack the salmon, cod fish, unagi (Japanese eel), mackeral and pomfret – the expensive fish and fish that are high in Omega 3 fatty acids. I need plenty of DHA (one of the…
This Disney Pumbaa sticker is very special, both for Baby C and me because Alycia took it from her precious collection of stickers she got from Hong Kong Disneyland recently and gave it to Baby C. This morning, I told Alycia that tomorrow I have to bring baby to the hospital to get an antibiotics jab. Alycia knows that her…
