morning mommies!



Atomickitten>> wah! you baked at such a late hour? hmmm...i love cheesecake.



i subscribe to babycentre and at the start of each wk, they'll tell you what to expect. so for Wk 25, this is what they say:

"Your baby is responsive to touch now. You can have fun with him by trying to tickle his foot when he kicks you or by lying on your back and rolling from side to side, to see how he reacts. His eyelids open around now and his heart is beating so strongly, it may be heard with a stethoscope."



Serene>> since you know where you baby's head and feet are, can try tickle her and see reaction - should be very fun. me also dun know where the head and feet are. hahaha

serene: wow.. u r gd man! till now i cant decipher whether my son's kicking/ punching me... juz im the blur kind... cant really tell...



atomickitten: share your lemon cheese tarts leh~~

[lovelybun]

morning all mummies to be...



Wow Eliss, thanks for all e updates [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[junie2606]

morning MTBs,



I'm also a "panda mummy" tdy. Didn't sleep much last nite....was tired but cldn't get to sleep and by the time I knew it, it was after 1am...then woke up at least 4 times to go to the toilet.



And by 5.30am...I'm wide awake.

 

[fazzyrizt]

Morning, mummies.



So I'm not the only one who couldn't get a proper beauty sleep too. I only managed to fall asleep after 1 am. Baby was happily kicking and kicking till then too. Was awake by 545am.



Today I'm going to see my gynae later! Can't wait!!! Have a good week, mummies!

 

[sun_tan]

morning,

mrslong, me too. Last night was so hot and i asked hubby to on the aircon. Then he blur sotong, he only on the "fan" part of the air con and went to switch off the fan in the room. After a while i was so hot that i woke up and couldnt get back to sleep for another 1 hr cos of his LOUD snoring! Then after i finally dozed off, shortly after, was woken up by mil's alarm. I am quite a light sleeper and her alarm was LOUD too..imgaine, 2 closed doors and i still can hear. In the end, got to get up and walk over to her room to off the alarm for her! And she is still sound asleep...cant imagine how someone can still sleep through such a loud alarm! so now..i am in a super bad mood and feeling very tired.. to add to that, hubby gg to universal studio today (w/o me..sob sob).. his company subsidise part of the entrance fee and they only need to pay $15...

 

[ecym]

i also feel so hot last night that I got off the bed first to adjust the fan's blowing direction then still very hot, got up again to on the aircon, it was only 1am then... slept early yesterday but could not sleep through out... irritating right?!

 

[p_r_i_s]

ica>> I dunno where baby's head or legs are, he still has room to move around. Gynae says his head could be at my belly button now and down at the bottom of my belly 10 mins lata. But he is really fun. When u tap tap belly and talk to him esp at night, he sometimes would kick back! Goes on for a while like we're having a conversation...hee

 

[junie2606]

looks like many of us are in the same boat...wonder if it has got to do with Monday blues, heehe.



suntan>> so good your HB can go Universal Studios...I think I can only go after I deliver & when BB's a few mths old.

 

[ecym]

next gathering - any suggestion on when is the next gathering and where should it be?

 

[junie2606]

so fast think of next gathering already? heehe.



suntan>> so hv u decided on whether to get the wall decals? I've placed orders for 3 wall decals & shld be receiving the items this week.

[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/2495852/3785582.jpg]



it'd be an animals theme room for my B-boy [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[sun_tan]

mrslong,

Ya loh, i also wanna go to universal studio, but cant sit the rides so no pt gg (i am a "ride" person). As for decals, we still deciding, cos hubby not very favourable abt sticking them cos he scare the decals will spoil the paint if we decide to take them down after a few years. But if wanna put the decals, i wanna get the winnie the pooh series [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[p_r_i_s]

mrslong>> Wow! really so nice!

 

[dqueeen]

hee... so im not the only 'panda' ard...

the weather was so hot yesterday.

my only consolation @ wk tdy's the unltd airconditioning i get.



but im still having splitting headache. took 1 panadol.. feels better... but my eyes cant seem to open...



suntan: so shiok!! ur husby gg to universal studios! me also wanna go... my sis jio-ed me.. cuz she can get cheaper tics.. but i declined cuz i refuse to go there to help them jagah bags.

i'll b green w envy cuz im a rides-person too!!



eliss: next gathering? in apr??

go where? any suggestions?



pris: cool... ur son's v cooperative! i tink my son's as blur as i m... everytime i try to 'talk' to him by askin him to kick here/there... i get 'echos'. no response fr him... he juz like to kick/ punch when im least expected. hurhurhur...

i hope by next wk he's as cooperative as ur son![IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

beginning of my 24th wk now!



mrslong: the decals r so nice!!! too bad i dun haf a bb rm to deco [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

if ive a rm to deco... i wanna decorate it w little twin stars!!!

 

[junie2606]

suntan>> u like winnie the pooh? I realised as I get older, my "courage" also diminishes.



Last time can take rides, etc...now think of riding on those crazy roller coaster rides, I also scare. hehee.



pris>> ya, i'm looking forward to receiving the items this week, then can see how to decorate the room. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[vernie]

mrslong, very nice!! Where did you place your order for the decals? I am also interested to get some - hopefully they have Winnie the Pooh series - thinking of Tigger decals for my Tiger Boy. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[guayni]

So far my bb kicking is still very light... but occasionally maybe he is too excited on the song I played for him or when I talk to him .. he will give me a stronger kick... No timing... as and when he like..



or sometime he doesnt kick me at all.. ask my hubby to listen to my tummy he say heartbeat very fast... haha.. or else no reaction... so we assume he is sleeping or ignoring us...



think he doesnt hv a sleeping and waking up pattern...



Hi sun tan



nvm la next time ask ur hubby to go again wif u and bb... like a family outing....



wow ms long



its nice..

 

[junie2606]

vernie>> it's from one of the organiser of the SMH-Bulk Purchase for wall decals.



Here's the link:

[ecym]

yvonne - your HB can hear your BB's HB. My HB can not hear BB's HB leh, think he must position wrongly. But he did witness my BB kicked/punched on Sat when we were at the talk at KKH...

 

[ecym]

 

[junie2606]

I received a pc of the GOO.N diaper sample from diapers.com.sg.



Hvn't open it up from the packaging though but somehow it feels very thin.

 

[ica]

mrslong: i also have a Goo.N sample sitting somewhere in my drawer. it's thin but then maybe it's like those whisper ultra thin sanitary pads - thin but absorbent. hahaha

 

[sun_tan]

DQ,

lucky that time whend during honeymoon, we already went to Movieworld and dreamworld, so i already had my fair shares of rides before junior comes along. Was already planning for the universal studio trip long ago. Cos hubby working in sentosa, so everytime i go in to find him, i sure pass by the rides. Haa.. your is boy leh, u gg to deco with little twin stars?



mrslong,

I am ok with winnie the pooh (not really a fan though), but cos mine is a boy this time round, if next time is a girl, then can still use the theme mah..ahha more unisex and winne the pooh series is a grp, got winnie, got tigger, got piglet and others, so its more "friendly" lah i feel.



Yvonne,

Next time with junior along, very hard to take rides le.



ecym,

But even if we ask for samples, how are we gg to try it out?

 

[guayni]

Eliss



Yap he can hear it..his ear will move ard my tummy and he will stop at tat position when he confirm the heartbeat...



Ms Long



The GOO.N pamper I heard fr my japanese colleague it is popular in JP... my friend use it too and say not bad... I also had a sample fr them...

 

[junie2606]

ica>> hahaa..ya, hv to let our BB try out b4 we know if it's absorbent! But that one definitely cannot be used for nite time

 

[ecym]

sun_tan - thinking of getting those samples first then try when BB pops lor... one way to save a little cost, another is to sample the diapers if they are good...

 

[pinkyxu]

Morning dears!



My stroller arrived this morning and my hubby fixed it up while perspiring buckets. Our weather is really nonsense!!! After we fix, we realize no space to store as the wheels r very big but hubby refuses to take it down. haha.



Wow the decals are very nice, too bad baby is sleeping in the same room as us so can't deco much.

 

[junie2606]

BTW, which MTBs ordered the Farlin playpen @ the BabyCare Festival @ Expo the other time?

Good morning ladies.



Seems like a lot of postings for this morning. I am quite busy today and feeling so sian. So many things need my attention.



Sometime felt like quitting and stay home to rest for awhile.

[jayamum]

Good afternoon ladies.



So happy that this week is a short week Hurray!



I too woke up at 3:30 to go pee then after that could not sleep wwaaaaahhh so annoying. Then read "Tin Tin" comic for 1 hour and dozed off after that... I feel so tired this morning.



As usual, people wouldnt give up their seat in the MRT... but I tried not to get into a bad mood so ended up playing "PSP" all the way to work.



Husb will be back from China today. Im looking forward to his return.. so that I can whine and whine and whine to him (very manja!)

 

[ica]

inuovi: me no stress coz the project i'm working on is nearing completion. so it's double work load for you? stress is generally not good for anyone, more so when you're pregnant



mrslong: i've never but you must 1st register an account with them. those that do not ship international, you'll have to register an account with vpost so that the merchant will ship to the vpost address. vpost will then ship it to you



not much of an appetite today. hubby doing day surgery for a skin abcess...sigh...have to fetch him from hospital after work and take care of big baby. he was like one yesterday and so stubborn - had fever but refused to see doc

 

[ica]

Jayamum: does your hubby switch off when you go into whining mode? mine does - i'll rattle on and he'll just make sounds like "hmmm...ya..." hahaha

 

[junie2606]

ica>> oh thanks. I've a US address registered under Borderlinx (Citibank) so maybe can use that.



I'll try, thanks!

[happimay]

Hihi MTBs,



Afternoon to you all.. had your lunch already?



Wow the thread is moving fast.. my home internet was down hence no way to post over the weekend.



Btw, I was at the taka fair yesterday and was hesitating if i shd get the Pigeon Electric Breast Pump.



Any feedback for the Brand Pigeon electric breast pumps?

 

[ica]

inuovi>> ya, just take it easy. i also had my fair share of late nites. i was thinking that they are not long term, so a few late nites were ok. what i couldn't stand were when my days got very hectic - no time to stop and rest and have proper meals or even go to the loo



hang in there. and take good care of yourself and baby
