pre & post

today.. i finally get some private time w/ mama. its been a while. with all this things going on.. its either we talk or we fight. most of the time we fight. *grin*

so i drag her to the salon.. so she could get a haircut and i can get a wash ( i need a good massage.. excuses, excuses)..

after getting the stuff miss sugary sweet told me to get (turn out 1 tu utk orang dah beranak aaa!! LOL), we went to our fav kopitiam.

so we started talking bout my married friends.. their first baby woes & joys .. and those under confinement (u know who you are).. and she laid down the laws..

1. my mom is strict during my sis in laws confinements..
2. my grandma was worst..

yes miss poe.. she also had the mishap of not getting enough water.. and no fruits. to which she suffered constipation. so she gave that pantang up! *LOL*

herbs and spices

so from what i gathered.. :

1. sunkist is the way to go.. especially if you've had C-section. it heals peeps.. it heals.. (wee!)
2. bath peeps bath! (poe.. i thought she said cannot.. turn out this was my nenek's pantang..)
3. water & more water..drink up.. water is made of H2O (ok i sux kimia).. where got angin element?
4. stokin.. yess...
5. kapur & limau slathered for a flat tummy ..
6. ayam...? yess.... (sis in law's mom said cannot. grandma said.. eat all daging! liver all.. makan!)
7. jamu eaten with very minimal water will cause you ur hair.. (yikes!!)

well.. i guess.. either way.. all those people who comes up w/ all these confinement do's and don't meant well.. but just like mama said.. it did add unnecessary pressure when she was going through it.. and she wished everyone would just shut their gob *LOL* but she also did the political way miss poe did.. nod & smile.. *sigh*

so miss poe.. u still want me to bring my mama around..??

*grin*
