As an Asian, I can't be more proud to talk about Confinement (this is starts the moment you deliver the baby) and will last approximately 40 days.
During this period of time, its recommended that one goes on a special diet that is suppose to aid in recovery / healing process and heaps of rest. This special diet tends to make heaps of my non-asian girlfriends cringe. Most likely one will ask me - Are you sure you are going to drink that weird looking soup?
Back then confinement are normally carried out by traditional confinement ladies who will look after both the mom and baby's well being. Or a close experience relative (female) will be helping out. As we
move into a modern age of time, other options become more available - such as confinement meals delivery services.
Given that I am used to having my own space and have my own routine set - I will not be hiring a confinement lady (I didn't hire one for my 1st pregnancy either) this time round too. So meal delivery service is indeed something I am looking more into since I will not want to tire myself out or trouble my in laws and mom to cook for me.
After trailing around the internet, the Hub and I decided to order a trial lunch meal with Newbaby under the recommendation of my friend - Angeline (the author of Simply Mommie). It arrives at about 11.30 am - just in time for me as I was starting to get hungry. At an affordable rate of $15.00, the portion seems pretty huge! The Hub and I shared the trial lunch meal and yes, absolutely yummy.
The prices listed are pretty reasonable given the portion and herbs they are using. (You may refer to this link for their price list: http://store2155391.ecwid.com).
