Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

This is what my Mom has been making for me to eat. Every day. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. 

Ginger Fried Rice with Egg. Some kind of Chicken Chinese Soup. And Pigs Feet with Hard Boiled Eggs in Black Vinegar. (The foods actually pretty good...and since I don't have to make it, I'm definitely not gonna complain.)

Here's some info I found online (about Chinese Traditions) to help explain my diet...and stuff: 

• Pregnancy is considered a "hot" condition, so to balance the scale between "hot and cold" or "ying and yang" cold foods must be consumed throughout pregnancy.
• Post partum is considered a "cold" condition due to blood loss during labor. Hot foods are required  to rebuild lost blood supply.  If cold foods are eaten at this time it can result in headache or arthritis in old age.
• Hot foods would include, hot water, hot tea, ginger, vinegar, pigs feet and high protein meats,  although beef should be avoided because it slows healing.
• Stay in doors for at least thirty days, this is called the "sitting month". 
• To prevent complications and avoid upsetting the balance of "hot and cold", avoid showering, washing hair, or exposing yourself to any cold conditions such as air conditioning, open windows, drafts or doorways during the "sitting" month.

Everyone else gets to load up on Watermelon. I've had a slice or two, but am not supposed to eat too much b/c Watermelon "cools" the body. :(

Nursing for Baby #2 has been SO much easier. And my milk has come in so much faster...and I'm producing a lot!
