Scavenger Hunt Day!

Mommy J was all ready for Day 2 with the most exciting activity organized by Shaklee which is the Scavenger Hunt!

Grand Prize: Sea Walking
1st Runner Up: Parasailing
2nd Runner Up: Zip Line
Consolation: Banana Boat

Mommy J was aiming for Sea Walking OR Parasailing. But I preferred Parasailing because I never had one before. I had my Sea Walking experience in Sabah before =p

We started our day with Morning Aerobic led by the crews.

Then we gathered and took our Big Shaklee photo!

We are ready for Scavenger Hunt. I was elected as the team leader haha. Yakin jer kan they all? Hmm
We had to hunt for 10 places names and get the signatures based on the clues given.

Teamwork. Patience. Smart Brain. Effectiveness. Enthusiasm.

We were the FIRST to complete all the questions with answers and we were given an extra 10 points for being the first!

YAY!!

Thank you team no 2! We received a cap and a bottle of SR Vita C Plus from Shaklee at the end of the hunt.

Then we had our Karaoke session. Thank you Kak Cip belanja Karaoke hehe =)

I am the only one not looking at the camera ;p

We had our lunch at Spices.

At about 3 pm, we went for shopping in Langkawi, the duty free zone =p Shopped for some chocolates for my staffs and friends.

After our short shopping trip, we went back and rest for a while.

We had our ‘Sarong Nite’ on our 2nd Day.

My Sarong wear =)

And guess what!?!

Mommy J and the team won 1st runner up prize for our Scavenger Hunt!!

Yayyyy, PARASAILING!! 

Excited excited.

Good job team.

But now my worry is……

6 Complete Nutrients that a Preggy Mom Needs

I am not a supplement person since young. Not that I don't trust supplements but I am just too lazy to take them and I feel that I am still strong enough to really need supplements yet haha.

PREGNANT!! 

But when I was pregnant with Jayden, I took all the vitamins and supplements given by the doctor diligently, never skip any of them lol. I was really paranoid about pregnancy at that time because there were lots of bad news I have heard about pregnancy among my friends.

I knew that a healthy body gives a smooth sailing pregnancy and healthy baby.

Here, I have compiled a list of essential and complete nutrient that a preggy mom needs based on the noted given by a Gynae.

Protein
Protein is the composition of large organic molecules; amino acids. Protein is responsible for acting as the building block of the cells of the body. In a pregnant woman, protein is required for both the mother and the baby. A baby’s cellular growth depends on the protein intake of the mother, especially during the second and the third trimesters. During that time, the mother’s body starts to develop and get bigger to attain the capacity of holding the baby in the womb. The breasts and other organs become bigger in order to provide the baby with appropriate nutritional needs. Protein is also required for producing energy in a pregnant woman’s body. During pregnancy, a woman goes through physical exhaustion because she carries another living being inside her body and protein intake becomes mandatory to avoid the exhaustion by producing sufficient energy.

Folic Acid
Vitamin B complex is scientifically known as folic acid. It is usually found in green and leafy vegetables. It acts as a major nutrient in both before and during pregnancy of a woman. The embryo has a neural tube which develops into brain and spine of the baby and if there is any defect in the neural tube during pregnancy, then there is risk of birth defects of spinal cord or brain of the baby. To prevent this, folic acid is a must diet for a pregnant woman. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that women who take the recommended daily dose of folic acid starting at least one month before conception and during the first trimester of pregnancy, reduce their baby's risk of neural tube defects by up to 70 percent. Various critical defects such as- cleft palate, cleft lip, heart defects and preeclampsia can also occur if folic acid is not added to the pregnancy diet.

Omega 3
This particular nutrient is not synthesized inside the human body. So, it needs to be taken from the dietary supplements. Omega 3 basically helps in maintaining a balance in the regulation of prostaglandin. Prostaglandin is a hormone which functions to maintain blood clots, inflammatory and allergic responses and blood pressure. During pregnancy, the blood pressure tends to be a bit higher than normal because of the overall physiological condition of the mother. This is why, omega 3 is necessary to be consumed during pregnancy.

Calcium
The primary function of calcium is to build strong teeth and bone. During pregnancy, a mother needs to have sufficient amount of calcium intake for the adequate formation of bone for the baby. It is also required to prevent the risk of preeclampsia and hypertension during birth. The regular intake of calcium for women aged from 19-50 years should be 1000mg before, during and after pregnancy.

Vitamin C
Vitamin C is generally consumed from fruits. The regular intake of vitamin C for a pregnant woman should be 80mg per day for women aged from 19 to older. Collagen is a protein that makes up various bones and cartilages and also provides a protection against skin diseases. But during pregnancy, overuse of vitamin C supplements can cause ill health as well. So the usage should be kept at optimum.

Iron
Iron is a very important mineral which is found both naturally and from dietary supplements. Iron is a major component of hemoglobin which builds up the red blood cells in the body. Iron deficiency may lead a person to have anemia- a blood disorder that result in pallor and weariness. So, if a pregnant woman does not receive the proper amount of iron in her pregnancy diet, then her baby will be in risk to blood diseases.
