hi ruffles, i just sent you a PM. have a look..

my baby has been having reflux - milk coming out after feeding.. seems like vomitting. I took him to an Osteopath who help massage him. And after 2 visits he's much better. he burps better, an doesn't have the milk reflux problems.

mint, medela PIS shields - u can buy the shields from Moms & Babes at United Square. They have different sizes. i'm using the 36mm size shields. the normal ones that comes with the breast pump doesn't fit me.

Juz Us - kids can have their own passports. I did it for my girls when they were abt 3 months old. I took them on a short trip and both wasn't fully vaccinated. it depends on how comfortable you'll be taking them on trips.

Mousebb, I did tbf with baby 2.. helper was just there to help me change baby's diapers and take care of household chores (i didn't have confinement lady). It was very tough for me in the beginning cos my older kid would cry whenever i have to breastfeed the baby and she wants to sit on my...

mousebb It's a bit tough trying to manage both babies on your own (when little one arrives). would it possible for you to get some help from your extended family such as your mom? Cos i know when my little one arrive, there was the helper to help me with the baby while i spend time with the...

mousebb, the gap between my first 2 kids are almost the same as yours. we did try to prepare our older kid for the arrival of her sister. but it was tough because she was a bit too young and she was still a baby herself. it took abt 3 months before she adapted to the new baby (after we took...

Whitepaper, I am using the Avent naturally express IQ. Also, i'm using the medela PIS breastpump. As long the bottles are not wide bottled neck, you can easily attached it to the breast pump. i find it really expensive to buy medele milk bottles. Nuk bottles do fit - not the wideneck...

curioxete, Yep, you're right. she's very motherly.. almost feels like my grandmother! heh. i did have a couple of sarcastic run ins with her too. but it was minor. at the end of the day, we still feel comfortable with her that's why i stuck with her for so long. (one thing i like abt her is...

Anyone owns a twin stroller? any recommendation?

Tracee, Like littlebluey, i have an Avent steralizer and am also using the Nuk wide neck bottles. they fit into the steralizer... and so far, i find that Nuk bottles are pretty good to use. I had some problems with Avent bottles. they tend to leak.. i don't know why and everytime when i use...

littlebluey, i have a preg parago Pilko 3 - 2006 model. it's pretty bulky and in the end, i hardly used it.. i'm using a lighter one for my 9 month old baby girl - chicco stroller (hand me down from my friend) and it's much easier to use..

curioxete, saw your post and realized we have the same gynae. dr soon's a very nice lady.. she has been my doc for the longest time.. and also for my previous 2 pregnancies. i'm sure you'll have a nice experience with her.

Another place where you'll find a wide selection of baby prams, push chairs etc.. Mothercare at Harbor front. Went there yesterday and they do have a pretty wide selection of various brands and types of car seats, strollers etc. Worth visiting.

Val, yes, it is on the 8th floor. you can actually see the measurement as the sonographer measures. you can also ask her if all's ok. she did show me the baby's head and told me brain formation seems normal and also told me that she can see the nose bridge and it seems normal. as for the blood...

val, i had my oscar done at paragon. the sonographer is a really nice lady. also, i didn't have to wait long and the cost is slightly cheaper at TMC ( i did mine at TMC last year). they have a nice tv screen for you to see the baby when you lie down. all in all, i'm happy doing it at paragon and...

I was at the clinic earlier having my OSCAR done. the sonographer told me if you can see the nose bridge, baby sld be ok. not sure if only the fluid measurement matters or other stuff too. Btw, i drank coke and had coffee every so often. i think as long as everything's done in moderation it sld...

btw, i was looking through some of the threads and came across quite a few on engaging certain confinement ladies. check it out as some mommies had very bad experiences with some of the CL and they actually list down the details of the CL.

Diane - i did engage a malay lady to do the wrap for me for both pregnancies. i find it rather useful. I'll probably go ahead and book for this pregnancy too. it did help to get rid of the air from my uterus and there was some pretty obvious results.

hynpo-birthing's really good if you want your birth to be as natural as possible. not cheap though and also it depends on whether your gynae is comfortable with someone else (doula to help with the hypno birthing techniques) in the room other than your husband. i know my gynae told me before...
