I personally drink essence of chicken when i feel really tired - days when even sleep at 9 pm wake up at 7 am to go work is not sufficient sleep. It helps to perk me up for ... huh 2 days at most. Good sleep and rest still works beta

I can't remember whether I need to write whether got any family history of diabetes to my gynea.. Hm..
My mom has diabetes :S..
So far my gynea never told me to test for blood sugar level :S..
My weight also usually being taken after consultation, not before consultation :S.. Is it becoz I don't look very fat :S (even though I actually gained 10 kgs from my 8th week check up till my 29th week :S).

Just called my gynea yesterday abt my sibling having the allergy to penicillin. He said that has nothing to do with me usually. Then he advised me to try 1/4 of the medicine first, then wait 1 hour whether got any rashes or signs of allergy.. If nothing wrong, then can eat the whole tablet.
I tried this morning and I don't have any sign of allergy. Phew..
My mom actually told me after I managed to call her, that most likely I don't have any allergy (including sulphur medicine).. She said I'm the person who is not easily get sick, that's why most likely I'm not allergic. But she can't remember anymore.. She just usually ask us to write having allergy to Sulphur and Penicillin to be save.. :S..
Last time (6 years ago) I might have asked my dad instead, that's why he only told me to write Sulphur, but not Penicillin. I think he forgot. Stupid me didn't reconfirm with my mom who knows more than my dad...
Hopefully I'll be fine the whole day-without any sign of allergy.

My mum always told me that she breastfeed me the longest, until my teeth grows. Hehe.. Cannot remember how long she said, maybe 2 years..
Maybe that's why I'm the one very seldom got sick.. I used to have external injury instead, due to my clumsiness..

Seabreeze,
think my test going to be like yours coz i rem i need to prick a few times too. I dun think my clinic got fridge leh.. sob sob... hope i dun puke or faint too...
Metta,
For newborn, try to use those PH neutral ones bah. That is what my PD recommend when my #1 used to have infant eczema. At first i used california baby... then changed to QV wash which is much cheaper and easily available from watson or pharmacy.
There are some other brands like sebamed baby, cetaphil etc which are also PH neutral.
I think depends on baby bah. Some used baby johnson no problem but it is too dry for my baby lor.
Only after the baby eczema goes off after he turns 1 yo, then i change back to baby johnson top to toe.
This round for #2, think i will use back QV wash to be safe bah...
Princess_d,
good to know that baby is growing well... mine will be tomolo...
You enjoy today lah...
LilBluey,
sigh... hope for gynae to agree on shopping is very very slim. Think needs a miracle. She dun even allow me to walk across a road to tabao food leh... confirm cannot one... I am thinking of sneaking out though... keke...
You got leg cramp ah... better rest hor...

Call them lar ... they should have a fridge somewehere =p
Metta ...
I dun recommend baby johnson top to toe actually cos my #1 had v bad rashes aft using and we changed to Lactacyd - they have 2 type, 1 is for feminine wash and another one which is pH7 (or something) that can use for baby. Lactacyd was recommended when I attende the antenatal class conducted by Mrs Wong many yrs back.
Work well for my kids =) non-rinse somemore

Lactacyd is readily available in watson. But the cheapest I could find so far is Beauty Language ... this shop that sells toiletries. Guess other shops that sell such stuff should be abt the same price range =)
Can last for v long cos just need 1 squeeze per time only

Bath wash
=========
Ya... the one Seabreeze mentioned Lactacyd is the one highly recommended coz hospital uses that too... I bot that and used it for my #1 but his eczema din go away somehow. My pd say by right should be ok one but since he not suitable so we changed lor.
Do note that the 2 packaging, one for feminine wash and the other one for baby are quite similar. Look properly before buying hor.
Shin,
I have used kodomo before. I find it very strong leh. That time i got some samples so used it on my boy, wah... only a few times using the shampoo, my boy's hair start to drop leh!! After i switch back to his normal ones, ok liao, so confirm is kodomo's problem. Even my MIL told me my SIL's girl used liao also not good. In the end, she only used it to wash their buttocks coz smell very nice...
Then again, maybe my boy is more sensitive lah...

ohh.. i never buy shampoo leh.. the one i bought is only for bath... cos i remember Mrs Wong say newborns no need to use shampoo first... I think so ah! hahaa.. I think use water first to wash... or use non-rinse type.. can't rmb what she said exactly [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
so i try the Kodomo bath first.. Luckily i buy small bottle cos in case it's not suitable for the baby.. just like what you said.. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] If too strong then I will change! hehe
So many things for babies are like trial and error process... the combination we get is more than the trial and error we learn in Maths!!!! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

OMG ... I am so fed up with POSB/DBS or should I say with myself!!
I just noticed that they have been deducting $2 service charge from me for the past 2 mths and today I decided to call and find out WHY??
They then tell me that cos I have a current acct which I need for the purpose of cheque book and I need to maintain a min daily avaerage of $1,500. And this started since Sep 09!!
I totally have no idea of this new rule ... I told her that I am v pissed and she kept saying that they have publicised this in their website, current acct statement etc
I must have been so so mean when I told her that I dun care and told her to go and check how many $2 have they been deducting from my acct!! Cos I am v v unhappy abt it!!
She still ask me if I want to close the current account cos if only have the savings acct then just need to maintain $500. Wow ... so fed up and told her that I have NO PROBLEM putting $1,500 in my current acct except that I am fed up that they just happily impose charges on me.
Poor gal ... she say she will check on the amt that they have been deducting from me and call me back ... sickening lar think I must go and open an acct that gives me FREE cheque book one.

Hihi mummies and Ian
busy busy day... was thinking if can go off early can try and join for dinner with the rest of the pretty mummies... hai~~
Gaia is good? cheaper in AU? Aiya my friend just got back from AU. Need to check with her when she going again! What products are good for Gaia?
Seabreeze POSB also like that ah? From what I know I have been having similar problems with Singtel where they will impose charges on me without informing me. Many times I have to call back to tell them to cancel the charge. They have these services which they give u for free for a while then if u dont opt out, they make u pay. Services which I dont even know abt... And some of the customer service officers are super jia lart. Can argue back somemore! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/angry.gif]

Shin,
ya, newborn no need shampoo... thats why i only use them when my boy is older lor. Who knows so strong.... I cannot imagine if i used on my baby. Anyway, the one my MIL complains is the bath wash. You are smart to get the small bottle first... hee... maybe your bb ok with it leh...
I do agree that everything have to be trial and error coz all babies are different. Some babies can use any brand, some just more sensitive. Same thing applies for diapers and milk powder...
Seabreeze,
I using OCBC cheque book. Its free.

Seabreeze, I use citibank - if you maintain $2k (or you have more than $2k above in FD) they provide you free cheque book. Think they call it maxi account.
Maybe 7 or 8 years ago, my OCBC bank account got deducted till negative figure and they got the cheek to call me to top it up and ask me for a new specimen signature as they have lost of my specimen signature (when transfering it from hard copy to digital data)! I was so fed up and ask to cancel but was told cancel also must pay up. Argued with the Branch Manager also no used. Ended paying a few dollars just to get them off my back. OCBC will not get new business from me. Not even considering them for my baby's account - Will use SCB.

Ok me going to visit the banks on Tues since I have like 1hr interval between each prick ... already paying $2 every month cos of the stupid cheque book and now they have the guts to deduct $2 for some stupid service charge. What service?!?
OCBC is free ar ... maybe I will check with them.

The prob with the private bank is that its not easily available for deposit and withdrawl so till now all the accounts are still with the local banks. But I heard that SCB is q good =)

If I am informed abt the charges I am fine, becoz I can opt to pay or just close the account or terminate the services. Just that I do not like them to impose charges on me without my knowledge. One of my colleagues got the same shit from Singtel and she was paying them extra $2 every month for more than 6months before she knew. So now every month I got to check all my statements properly.

I thought no bank has Free cheque book without maintaining certain amount of money inside the account (>$1500)?
I remember last time I have difficulties to find account with free cheque book without maintaining certain amount of money. In the end, I just know later that if I use DBS Cashline cheque book, paid beforehand to the account 2 working days before using it, then I can use it FOC.
Now my DBS Cashline supposed to have annual fee charge already but until now I think I don't get any charge. Maybe it's time to call them to ensure :S.. Always forgotten ever since I'm pregnant.
