Confinement period

Hooray!!!

Finally, the 30 days of confinement period is coming to an end!

During the confinement period, there are rules. Each family has its own rules, I think. I will list out what I can and cannot do during this one whole month.

Summary of the confinement period:
  1. Food intake: All dishes must be cooked with ginger or wine or pepper.
  2. Consume pork or chicken only for the first 12 days, certain vegetable such as kailan and tomato is added to the dish list after that.
  3. Drink only hot drinks, avoid plain water.
  4. Bath only after the 12th day.
  5. Sleep / Rest most of the time.
  6. Do not wash hair.
  7. Do not switch on the fan. It is OK as I can switch on the aircon.
  8. Do not open windows.
  9. Stay inside the room most of the time.
Those are the rules that I can tolerate with. Mama is very concern about me, that is the main reason make me an obedient girl. After giving birth, I have learned that how great mama is and I do not want to make her worry about me. Well, she still complaint that I am stubborn as I do break certain "rules" like when I did not eat certain oink organs on certain days.

The best part of confinement period is that I am able to spend all the time with baby Cola. He is such a darling, eats and sleeps well most of the time. Do not believe me, I let him tell you by himself.


Anyway, now I have washed my hair and even went for facial yesterday. I am free yet have less time to online and blog. Well, you cant blame me as I need to go out more often so that I know how the outside world has changed over the last 30 days ma. Will update more once I am bored with the outside world. ;p
