I also wear make up to work lar. If not look like ghost.
I will be bathing and washing hair throughout confinement. Aircon is a must for night time. Fan will be left running in day time in living room also. Will just be wearing t-shirt and shorts also. That's what i did for my last confinement in May. And with such "skimpy" dressing and fan and aircon and all, still perspire like crazy.
End up, I resorted to either going to the room to BF and on air con, so that I don't have to activate the aircon in the living room.

Hi mummies, I was busy with year end closing and also final audit, so was not follow the thread for quite sometimes.
Would like to ask if any mummy has bought the herbs for shower and dried hair shampoo? Can share where to buy and which one the best?
I heard my colleague told me last time they gather all mummies from the thread and dud bulk purchase from a shop at bishan industrial park. Anyone know keen and know where to buy? My colleague has forgotten the brand but she said very good as can smell the lemon grass ..

Wow everyone seemed to be very excited, yesterday was feeling a slight pain at my stomach area, was wondering if it is contraction, keke then i can give birth today 29th feb, such a special date. Then my baby will be prematured, no no... I have ordered confinement food from newbaby. The food is not too salty, just nice, can accept, just that i still prefer the red dates tea prepared by my mum. Nicer than theirs. Food is tasty too but abit oily which will require abit of effort to remove. I have Delphin too, both my husband and i love it unfortunately it has became our white elephant as we are staying there. Thinking of letting go at a loss, anyone hope to get one can get from me. To save yourself some money than buyin new set.
me too, didn't on the air-con last time, just use fan. but recently the weather is getting so hot... i guess it will be hotter during my confinement period. might consider switching on the air con when bf, so that bb and i won't get too sweaty.
my last 2 confinements were in Jan and Feb, still quite cooling.

cheekyduckie,
i ordered the buy 4 get 1 free Country Save from Bumwear website since it has free delivery for orders above $100. Honestly too lazy to go to United Sq to get it. =P Let me know if you need a box. I can always pass you a box at the discounted price which i got it for. Guess I will use it for the bum wear and baby's clothes as well as hubby's sweaty clothes since i will have like 5 boxes!!
re: baby cot
any mommies using/used Ikea's cot? Was there today and very tempted by e compact size of the cot. But...i just bought the mattress for my existing cot! sigh..coz our bedroom doesn't have much space and to have the existing cot in our room is going to make the room pretty cramp. Any review on ikea's cot?

hi mummies,
if looking for confinement shampoo and body wash, u can try this.
http://www.littledreamers.com.sg/catalog.html
i got it for my confinement period, hence i wash my hair every 3 days instead of not washing at all.

fantasy: where is your gynae visit? mine is at TMC, Dr Beh.
the ear thermometer, i think majority got Braun? cos bp and spree there always lots of order. mine also Braun, so far so good. But I do remember PD normally recommend the normal thermometer for newborns, they say more accurate.

Nooo I'm not gonna follow! Haha! Can use the herbs wash body lah.. But the hair.. Maybe will try to tahan about 2 weeks.. But definately before 1 month! If don't wash 40 days will really die man. Sum more how to face people during full month celebration?
All these beliefs are frm china anyway.. Dont need to follow so stubbornly right.. Now we have clean water, hair dryer.. Haiz..

pink bunny,
the only thing that i wished the ikea cot has is the drop rail, makes it easier to put baby in. but then again, for that price it is a pretty good deal! i am so close to getting the cot. just that I am stuck with a completely new Babysafe mattress now! sob....
cayden's mummy,
wow! so soon!!! head down position already??

The pre natal aqua aerobics class is for 5 weeks and either held at YMCA or if you can get a group of 8 expectant mummies, can arrange for a condo. I think most of us may not be able to last a further 5 weeks as preggie mummies la! I was asking if anyone was keen for the mum+baby aqua sessions, which are good for babies after 4 months, then they are not so sensitive to chlorine.
For those interested in the aqua aerobics for MUMMIES, maybe you can call the number that’s on the webbie at YMCA to enquire
Haru
If we are talking about the same cot (http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/50213565/?) then there are 2 heights – can put baby on top level when still small, and when older, can lower it so baby cannot climb out. You want something that can lower the side rail for you to put baby in? but er, your two hands will be holding on to baby liao, how to lower rail? Don’t remember how much I bought it for, $300 plus I think, 4 years ago. Should be cheaper now
