    Hi Jezabel, congrats on your BFP and welcome to BB. I myself have never travelled overseas so cant really give you any advice. I sposeif you are going to the Dr on Tuesday you could ask him/her? Have a happy and healthy 9 months!

    Hi there,

    All will be fine in KL. DH and I went to Hong Kong 3 days after finding out I was UTD. Just be careful and if at any stage you are unsure then simply don't risk it. I ate at food markets and in 5 star places. All was fine - no illness at all - bottled water is the main thing and NO salad bars. Eat your vegies cooked. Fruit I washed myself or I ate things like bananas and mandarins - stuff with skin you don't eat. Eggs - I've eaten approx 2 - 3 a week and no probs there. I was not drinking coffee or alcohol during my first trimester (purely as the smell made me sick) but I was okay and back to a little of both by the third trimester. I constantly get annoyed by being told not to eat raw fish and certain cheeses - I mean how do you think the French and the Japanese women have babies? Most of all - ENJOY YOUR FINAL HOLIDAY AS JUST THE TWO OF YOU!
