Few things need to be done differently in this pregnancy

Folic Acid
Ak beli folic acid in Malaysia ari tu, just to be sure of kehalalan pil tu, the last time, i redah je beli pregnacare from tesco, yg ada both folic acid n other vitamins, with fish oil yg ada omega 3, its the fish oil yg ada capsule tu dibuat dari gelatine, i didn't realized the last time. n this time, i take exclusively folic acid 400mcg, instead of campur2 vitamin lain, coz i'm not working, so i'm eating like a gajah juge la skarang.. n i take them obediently, dulu serious celup2. ape celup, tapi skarang tak mo dh, dulu ye la bz kerja, kadang2 tak teringat,. this pack that i bought ada 90 tablets, so mmg bagus utk 3 bulan terus, i've never even finished one papan pon.. but as the baby is still developing the spine, i hope they'll still benefit

Aspirin
Ini adalah diprescribe oleh doctor, sighh..due to positive ANA found in my blood in the late miscarriage screening ari tu.. ada research yg kate, due to its autoimmune properties, positive ANA can lead to miscarriage, so taking aspirin low dose, 75mg, is one way to prevent that from happening.. being a mother with medical background, giler tak takot nk amek aspirin??? SE banyak giler.. kang over bleeding pulak camane, dh la ari tu balik from malaysia in the plane, ada nosebleed lagi, the same incident with Ilman masa balik from raya itu hari.. so dengan authority yg ada pada tangan den selaku qualified doctor, saye hanya akan makan aspirin ini selang sehari.. kuikuikui..

Fish Oil - Omega 3
This thing is good for baby's brain development.  but my supplies dh habis la pulak time balik mesia itu hari, n tak topup ler pulak.. most probably akan mintak tolong mak belikan when they come here for raya la.. or, i'll find yg vegetarian punye so that the capsule doesn't contain gelatine.. i still don't know whether to take this first after i've finished the folic acid, coz at that time, the brain is still developing kan.. or to wait after i've finished taking iron supplement, coz in my previous pregnancy, i had low haemoglobin, but that affects me, more than my baby. most probably fish oil first la..

Iron
When I was pregnant with Ilman before, my Hb was at the lower end of normal, for normal people, but still, considered low for pregnant mothers, this is what SOME people don't understand.. (still terkesan with a conversation with a friend).. unless my haemoglobin level becomes lower earlier, i guess i won't be taking iron until after i've finished my fish oil lah.. i'm afraid of the side effect juge, constipation if taken at the end of pregnancy, coz time tu la mmg org nk terkena hemorrhoids nye pun, but just like my previous pregnancy, my biggest problem is not constipation, but diarhhoea..

Other Vitamins
I don't know whether to start on other vitamins or not, coz now that i'm at home, cooking, n varying my meals everyday, i'm kind of confident of the nutrition i got from my food.. so mungkin kalo ada gap towards the end of pregnancy di mana sume ubat pun dh habis telan, i'll start on other vitamins.. sebab important juge utk vitamins ni masuk dlm susu badan nnt, i plan to breastfeed exclusively, so susu badanku harusla setanding susu yg dh diproses masuk vitamin2 tu sume.. betul tak?? huhu

haih, penat tulis panjang2, pastu mood tulis omputih plak.. layan jo la ye..
