I need to start washing bb clothes soon!I washed the baby clothes early in feb and then I ziplock them since its still too early. But I rather do early than later part when start to feel heavy.
Cloth diapers, first wash was early feb, then I staggered 2 weeks between the 2nd and 3rd wash. Then same, put them in ziplock. Next week will be starting to arrange all the baby stuffs on the shelves
I would suggest seeing a doctor if you don't have medication to take.hi mummies...unable to fall asleep maybe due to my nose being blocked..
i have been having runny nose, sneezing and slight headache since wed night..didnt wanna go to the doc coz i see no point but now it seems that im not getting well...n the headache remains...make me feel like i am having a fever at times but when i checked my temp...no fever..
do u think it is necessary for me go see a doc or shd i just wait it out?
Oh.. u already have a breastpump.. I heard for the parts u can also use the baby bottle sterilizer...
I bought the spectra dual pump on the previous baby fair cos got alot freebies.. but the cheapest model @ $99 was sold out when I went so I bought the next model. I asked for feedback from my friend who just gave birth about 5 months ago and review is good...
Medala seems to be a more branded brand so the price is also higher. .
I will really recomend getting double pump. Imagine waking up 2 times a nite pumping 20-30min one side then the next side… and somemore one side will drip… very messy and wasteful.
I borrowed Avent single pump frm sil before getting Medela freestyle. Dont really like it. I think e price for Avent is similar to Spectra which many are raving about, maybe go check it out?
I get what you mean about those rompers/body suits!! Think I've got an over supply of 0-3mths, got to start stocking up on 3mths onwards from now... So I've got a strict ban on buying clothes for now
Gawd I'm feeling scared thinking of the vaccinations. I hate injections in general. I think I will cry next time when I bring my baby for immunization jabs. Gulps. What's the difference between 5 in 1 and 6 in 1?
I'm guessing the hospital will let us know which months to bring the baby for the jabs yeah??

i got mustela. my friend using it and say is goodWhat do u gals get for baby cleanser... bombard with so many brands... biolane, mustela etc.
@AngelDustV - did you get the spectra M1 dual pump?
one of my friend told me spectra 9+ is better - how much did you pay for it may i know?Got the spectra 9+... cos very portable.. abt pocket size.. but after adding the tubing and stuff.. haha.. will also need a small carrier. .
I would suggest seeing a doctor if you don't have medication to take.
I always medication at home on standby in my first aid kit. I have pregnancy safe medication like piriton(small yellow pill) it's an anti histamine and relieves sneezing, dantzen and regular paracetamol/panadol for cold, cough, headache and body ache and also this ivy leaf thingie sore throat syrup for kids and pregnant mothers.
Drink more water and take water with lemon and if you have organic honey can add a teaspoon. Or place like a pinch or two of sea salt into warm water to gargle your mouth and throat for sore throat if it hurts.
Hope you get better soon, falling sick when preggo sucks balls big time!
When is ur nxt appt? In 3 wks time?
So week 32 pay doctor fee deposit yeah? My gynae said he will make room reservation when I went this week. He didn't mention abt his fees yet. So I guess when I see him nxt at 32 wks in 3 wks time he will mention it..
I'm beginning to feel abit scared..
one of my friend told me spectra 9+ is better - how much did you pay for it may i know?
The health booklet will state the kind of jabs available, and PD or the nurses at ur selected clinic will explain which mth and all. Till now i never c my kid being injected, i will have giddy spells.. haha. But beginning when they did test for jaundice or other vaccinations, wen bb cry, i think all mom heart will sink...the cries seems painful. But some kids can tahan and slp thru..
ok thanks! i will wait for the bb fair next month to get it!I haven't started using so I cannot review whether is it better..
I just checked online.. ooh.. m1 should be the one that my colleague is using.. which is the one selling $99 (promo price) with freebies and was sold out... so bought the 9+ instead but my hubby paying so I din record down the price.. hahaa if i din remember wrongly should be $138 or around there (also promo price ).. think only during fairs then can get that pricing. .. else shd be much more exp.. there is another bigger version that they say can pump out more milk.. hospital standard version..
Found a utube video on the comparison between 3 pumps..:
wow so your #1 and #2 will have birthdays close together?Yup, i on air-con 24/7 when i was doing confinement for my #1. it was in May as well. So was very hot. My confinement lady was fine with it as she says only no fan allowed. So I wasn't feeling sticky or anything with the air con so I just use the herbal water to wipe myself for the 1st 2 weeks and then started bathing and washing hair from the 3rd week onwards once every few days.
think it depends on the gynae/hospital. mine asked for deposit at wek 28... but i wasn't ready so next visit at week 32 then pay... here marks the start of lots of payments!! >.<When is ur nxt appt? In 3 wks time?

Hahaha yeah payments done then it's over.wow so your #1 and #2 will have birthdays close together?
I'm impressed you can tahan 2 weeks never wash hair. even with aircon, wun the hair become limp and oily?

I saw a video where the baby stare at the mother when kena inject. Like why you let this woman poke me! LolzYup the nurses and pd will explain all e vaccination packages, we just signed up for one when e time came. Can also choose e polyclinic option instead of pd, infants got priority queue.
Initially when my gal cry during her jaundice test and vaccinations i oso wanted to cry cos so pitiful! First time mom so very emo. But newborns are really tougher than we realised. Subsequently she was very brave and didnt cry much. I hope my bb boy will oso be as gungho as his sister.
i think i will b very upset everytime i bring my bb for vaccinations.I saw a video where the baby stare at the mother when kena inject. Like why you let this woman poke me! Lolz
But I dunno whether next baby fair will have this promo not...ok thanks! i will wait for the bb fair next month to get it!
I went to that suntec fair in jan.. only the m1 was sold out.. the hospital grade I think they have 2 versions; one blue and one pink (forgot the difference)..angeldustV, I might be getting Spectra S1 (hospital grade) type. I think there is a baby fair early next month in Expo, is this the fair you are referring to? I did not buy at the previous babycare fair in suntec as it was sold out and if order got no freebies.
Hahaha yeah payments done then it's over.
But I can't seem to shrug off my fear of delivery.
Everyday I'm beginning to feel scared as EDD comes closer..
I jus had a dream that day..labour was so painful I told my husband I don't want to give birth liao hahaIf its any consolation, to me delivery (w epidural of cos) is less painful than breastfeeding.
Okayyy maybe dat doesnt help lololol…

Hahahaa.... ya kind of doesn't help neh.. I din know breastfeeding is more painful than giving birth with epidural.. and ironically, the 1st thing my hubby bought for me is breastpump so it's not a treat but trick..
It's normal to have white discharge when pregnant. As long as it doesn't smell funny or the area doesn't itch then it shouldn't be a problem.Any mummies experience white color discharge at week 30? I just had. Very worried. Is it normal?
Like squirt out whitish watery discharge? I have that almost daily and its normal. Unless it's like cottage cheese or got smell then my gynae said its yeast infection or bacteria and need to fix itAny mummies experience white color discharge at week 30? I just had. Very worried. Is it normal?
@furbee
I book Mdm Ida for prenatal today but last min she cancel say she not feeling well
I also book her for post natal , do think she she will last min cancel during our post natal?

How can one so tiny have so many things and clothes! Omg been washing n washing yesterday n today. Doesn't seems to end...lol
My next appt is in a mth's time, then hv to pay deposit le. Was given my gynae's fees + estimated bill for e different beds. Gosh everything really went up hor. Fyi total bill oso incl baby's stay and pd bills, food etc. Add up everything estimated 5k-6k for 2nites stay at TMC, and dats normal vaginal delivery.
I guess the 6k cash govt gives us all spent on delivery haha.
Went for my first childbirth edu class yesterday and the topic was on labour. Was greeted with a video of a woman halfway in delivery and the baby's crowning at her vagina. Did breathing exercises, etc. Not sure if that helped me to be more prepared or not.Hahaha yeah payments done then it's over.
But I can't seem to shrug off my fear of delivery.
Everyday I'm beginning to feel scared as EDD comes closer..
That's unfortunate... Hmm. Have spoken to hubs and he wants to stay with me in the hospital as well... So I'll most likely go for one bedder. I'll be doing the hospital tour next wk, so I'll have a better idea of what's being offered then..I heard of the free upgrade in TMC but usually is only from 4-bedder to 2-bedder. No 2-bedder to single...
