Lizzie,

Papayas when ripe will have orange flesh and yellow skin.



feimei,wens,

To have break in between the papaya fish soup is recommended by the TMC book I got back in 2008. Not sure why though but I think no harm taking continuously if we want. The soup is given to mummies after birth in TMC. Very yummy!

Can use fish bones, not necessary fish meat. I use threadfin bones previously.

 

[sugarspunlily]

coopie: I have not many newborn clothes as it is

its like A SIGN

 

[feimei]

sunshine> i also NEVER even touch avocado before but mummies here say it's a 'heaven' fruit...soo great n oso heard fr my ex col...soo i decide to step out n try...but not every stall make it nice but my workplc here got one very 'gao' n nice...n the taste very good...got 1wk...i drink consecutively leh...now abit more lazy... =P



elch> yea...i heard ppl using threadfin...wat is the chinese name??? =P ya...fishbone oso can...no need fish meat anyway after brew...doubt u will eat the meat becos all the taste will be into the soup lol...meat will be tasteless!!!

 

[laura_yaya]

feimei, agree not every stall make nice avacado drink. i like the best at alexandra food centre.. nice nice and cheap some more.. around $2.50 per cup.

my office here, not as nice as that, but thicker and lesser cos alot of ice cost $3.50!

[timberchampagne]

yaya> huh? really? all along i tot i m same week as suying. yeah, me too, always looking forward to hv my ultrasound, not much of e gynae though. hehehe.. i dun really hv much problems so i dun know wat to chat wif e gynae. wat does ur gynae or u chat wif her/him abt?



sunshinebb> from e pic, ur stomah looks so pointed. its a boy right?? my mum said my stomach looks pointed but dun know why its a gal [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] i said already verify by 2 doctors (1-gynae, 1-sonographer). anyway mine also looks slightly bigger than urs at week 23 days 4.

 

[suying0614]

my kelics say my tummy still small. N yes yest. noon sudden tummy so pain seems like princess is trying too make a big turn but no space & sqeeze til im so painful ;(

 

[laura_yaya]

suying, me also la.. no body give up seat, so i just stand there and wait for pple to get out from their seat lor.. >.<



Feimei, mine here, need to pay more for less ice.. sucks right.. >.<



janice, ur EDD is 19th July? i thought no one same day as me... mine is 19th July...

 

[chinook]

Just to share that my amniocentesis results came back today and my baby is okay, just a alpha thalassemia minor like my hubby and I. So happy and relieved. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[feimei]

yaya> tink if less or no ice, sure hv to pay xtra...same everywhere but this stall uncle very nice...hahahaha...he din charge me...maybe he noe i drinking for lil one inside...soo free lol... =P



most of the time when gg home...ppl will offer mi seats but these two days...no luck...becos those who occupy the reserved seats r Aunties!!! aunties think they hv the RIGHTS to sit l;o.... -,-

 

[xinyue]

ahh.. back to topic on seats in MRT..



yes.. aunties think they have all the rights to sit.. when they see preggy occupying the reserved seats, they will stare and stare..



i told my hubby.. reserved seats sign got 4 icons.. the preggy icon is invisible to most.



i encountered few times, aunties fight with me for seats.. so just let them take the seats happily lor...



now, when i enter the train, just find a place to stand where there is something for me to lean against or some pole for me to grab.. safety first..

 

[feimei]

xinyue> dun take it to heart....they dun giv us the seats....make sure their DIL or daughters will NOT deserve the seats when they r preggy lol...i belief in retribution!!!! soo no need angry w them.... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/proud.gif]

 

[feimei]

suying> hows ur sugar control??? got improve? used to ur diet liao???

 

[chujie]

congratulation Chinook..

 

[xinyue]

feimei > yeah.. but really at the begining of the preggy journey.. very uncomfortable and still have to stand..



hehe.. me too believe in retribution.. but sometimes, cannot tahan when they give me a 'are u really preggy look'.

 

[chujie]

xinyue> for me I don't expect pple give away seat from priority.. but I will goto the centre and expect anyone to give up their seat.. more chances mah.. so far.. quite lucky.. hehe..



Sometimes make sure you stand in front of pple not pretend sleeping or read book..

 

[ixoral]

wendy> just curious. if eating papaya cause concern for jaundice cos of the coloring, then won't carrot be the same case too? since both papaya and carrot contain beta-keratin, which causes our skin to turn yellow should we eat them excessively. I guess just gotta consume in moderation..no everyday la [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[xinyue]

chujie > good for u! after few encounters, I also don't expect ppl to give me seats (priority or not). I will stand at the joint (the part between the 2 cabins). At least something for me to lean against and not as squeezy compared to the middle. I kenna bumped into a few times already. >.<

 

[sunshinebb]

sunshine... i hope i can be like u.... but u knw seeing the kids like dis 1.1yrs & the other wan 2mths+ only. hw i bear to do dat ;(

 

[cactusnah]

Chinook: Congrats on the double joy! Happy for u! But how come it took so long for yr amnio result to be out? Hw many weeks are u nw?



Seats: Think the Circle Line passengers are more gracious. I've been bringing my boy to school since Dec and we always have kind souls givin up seat to him coz i think there's seldom kids in the MRT amongst the morning crowd. And my boy has the habit of pretending to 'make milk', feed bb and talk to his mei mei (my tummy) in the train. I'll be standing in front of him and he'll hug my tummy and speak softly to my tummy. Coz my tummy was small, many din notice i was pregnant. But aft my boy's action, i was offered seats on several occasions. Kee kee.....



SY: Yr BIL is really one of a kind. Not paisei and still wanna blame u. Furthermore he is a father of 2. Sigh........

 

[feimei]

suying> yes, everyone see the kids will not bare to chase them out but their parents really make ppl pissed off n the kiddos will leant from them when they grow up....throw the adults out n keep the kiddos lol...hahahaha....say is easy la...but no 1 can do it...but the two lazy bums really mus teach them a lesson to WAKE up their sense!!!!

 

[sunshinebb]

suying....c my boy also support me sia...he kicking non stop inside...

 

[suying0614]

feimei.... u r nt mean. im sure all mummies here feel angry for mi. i shld Fxxx him off rite. hmm... i think i shld change & dun gv face liao... ya i knw cos of kids we softhearted. dis is human nature lo say is easy. i really dun mind kids stay & the 2 get out of this house man....



cactusnah... ya lo father of 2. still so brainless n wan enjoy take things for granted only. nt even a yr gap lo for his 2kids. seems like they give birth to kids to earn $$$ only. stupid thinking rite. if gt the 3rd wan i & DH gg ask him move out if he complains room small. cos rite nw he & son sleep living rm. wife & daughther in the rm. when his wife no mense everyday u can see her neck gt curry chicken. buay paisei wan lo... shameless couple.



As i mention b4 bath oso togther even my MIL orwhoever at hm they dun care. yest case MIL feeding boy to eat dinner n baby sleeping. both gg to bath MIL tell them bath y must everytime 2ppl go bath wan wat if bb wakes up. they dun care & jus proceed bathing togther. Fxxx sia.... from my living rm i can hear his wife sound. those sound like playing water inside the bathrm like dat. shit them la.... buay zhidong..... worst senerio is wife gt menses both still can go bath togther. wow piangzzz... i really gt no eyes to see!!!!



really shameless to say.... but dis is wat im facing.... i feel relieve saying out... cos mummies here will support mi rite whahhahaha....



sunshine.... of cos la..... think my princess angry & feel shameless to have this kind of uncle too hope i & DH could gv the best to my baobei

 

[diana_natalie]

Su ying > for me i sure buay tahan scream at them liao lor... like my BIL and MIL relatives buay pei sei come to stay my hse for a few weeks to save hotel fee free use of water and soap i already so pissed off liao... i cant imagine long term to have to have free loader to stay in the house... despise such ppl... want to save $ spend others $ as theirs...

 

[bystander]

In train nw... Was crowded but got kind souls give up seat for me. Not sure abt u but i noticed ppl who tend to give up seat are those gals in mid 20s n some older uncles who may have been a father b4. Those who dun give up r mainly young males...juz my personal opinion coz happen to me.
