no shellfish! 不能吃海鮮 :-(

Now I am having a baby, one thing I must give up is shellfish. I am allergic to shellfish, salmon, and tomato. I don't know when I developed this, but I looooove to eat salmon, shrimp, clams, baked oyster, etc. I do not get serious reaction, but since the doctor say the baby will be affected, I really have to stop. When I went to the T&T market the other day, I discovered some of my old time favorite snacks also contain shrimps! Then I went to have dim sum, and guess what?! a lot of the foods that I thought do not contain shrimps, do have shrimps in them! I think this is harder than giving up drinking. You can not avoid going to a restaurant with friends who's going to order some yummy seafood you can not eat. Oh.. but my baby is more important.. we will do everything to have a healthy baby.

懷孕後除了不能喝酒之外, 我還得放棄海鮮! 不知道從何起, 我開始對海鮮過敏, 只要是有殼的海鮮, 還有三文魚, 番茄(搞什麼? 都是我的最愛) 都可能引起皮膚發紅發癢. 本來我還會冒險吃吃, 但是醫生說我若起症狀會害寶寶也過敏, 我就真的不敢吃了. 結果是我每樣買來的東西, 每道要點的菜, 都會先查一下有沒有含蝦. 居然五香乖乖, 某牌的海苔, 和平常愛上館子吃的炸芋頭糕都有含蝦!! 我以為放棄喝酒比較難, 沒想到是放棄海鮮最挑戰. 我對食物的排名是 1)海鮮, 2)肉, 3)菜. 而去哪裡吃飯都會有朋友點海鮮.. 真痛苦. 不過為了小寶寶還是得聽話, 我現在吃的健康營養都是為了寶貝的身體喔
