are, I think $299 is already one of the cheapest cots around if you're buying at dept stores. If you want something even cheaper with lesser features, then try kaki bukit. They have quite a number of very basic cots after disc selling at only $150 onwards. But remember to make sure that the cot is not varnished and uses non-toxic paint. You might also want to get one with adjustable height to lower it so that baby will not be able to climb (v dangerous) once he/she learns to stand.

berry... thanx for the tips! will need adjustable height definitely, & wheels too. i'm toking more abt the 'can use till older as bed' features tat i might not need.

guess jan... i'm oso having flu!
Girls, my all-time no-fail cure for flus/cold/coughs is raw honey. Even cures of sensitive nose problem (I start having running nose when weather changes or too hazy). Also helps with my constipation problem sometimes. Do avoid taking medication no matter how 'safe' it is, cause traces will still be passed on to your baby. Why not try taking raw honey daily and see if it helps? This is what I'm taking, available at Taka basement (nxt to harrods section) and guardian pharmacy at Holland V: http://www.reallyrawhoney.com/
berry, are
I was told that we can take Vit C to boost our immune systems. So probably later will go guardian to get one.
are...
u oni hve flu rite? If got fever muz take med leh..cuz fever muz control if too high is bad for bb. But both my gynae and gp says cold, flu and sore throat will not do any harm to bb. How I wish I can juz sleep in my bed now.

Oh, me oso looking for bb cot and so far the one that we realli like is the one at kiddy palace, selling at $269 but does not come with anything else. Prefer to buy those tat comes with bedding set, mattress etc...to save all the trouble. Me intend to let bb sleep on the cot until like 2-3 yrs old, thereafter can sleep with us or mattress.
Coffee, I started feeling the movement when I was week 18, started with v mild movement but u know it's bb, cos nothing else oredy. Be patient, it's a real joy experiencing it.
Emma, I signed up at wk 12 oso. Ya, do check wif ur gynae.
John Little having sale on Fri, so far din see any cot there hor.

Yuru, yeah, my MIL is really nice to me.
wooof, your appetite will slowly increase, be patient. For me, super slow- my normal pre-pregnancy appetite only returned by week 20 or so. Before that, even though not much MS, also not much appetite. I am savouring the last 1-2 months of my good appetite before third tri, incase I kenna MS, indigestion or heartburn again.
I started using stretchmark cream since first tri, but not daily, only once in a while when I'm not lazy.

emma, what is the reason? then wouldnt it be quite a rush to buy everything after baby's born? I think most of us would be really tired and busy after baby's born. I would want to prepare everything for baby's arrival so that i can have ample time to do my research and plan properly, than to rush like mad when baby is out. Besides, alot of items can be used by both gender even if you're not sure whether bb is boy or girl. I think I'll finish buying everything during this great singapore sale, just nice timing before I become too big and can't shop properly.
wooof, the cream is supposed to help prevent stretchmarks, but then again, stretchmarks are genetic, so they only do that much, the rest up to your genes.

wooof, you are same week as me (12) and also same EDD! so i'm in my second trimester already? my appetite is still pathetic and the ms is still around and pretty intense at times as well. heard some people will continue to feel the ms until week 14 - looks like I may be one of the unlucky ones
TBL - wow cannot imagine how to tahan 9 months of MS! I heard of that happening but I figure since I'm the never-strike-lottery kind, this shouldn't happen to me. Even another month sounds like torture to me. I was hoping it would be better this week but I've been rushing to the toilet with tissue over my mouth about twice a day so far..

Hullo ladies,
Ya ya, can see my bb gender yesterday. Me having bb girl, so now can start doing up the nursery room and buying clothings for her.
Now at week 20, she is oredy weighing 500-600g, think tat is quite heavy right.
SLK, my triple test result all shows normal (thank god!) but gynae still refers me to do a detailed scan at Thomson. My gynae mentioned it will costs $90+, just booked a schedule.
Chihiro, me oso using Boots, actualli tat one quite ok and think can be used throughout my pregnancy. I started using tat when I was week 10 I think.
Yest at my gynae clinic, saw a mother carrying her new born bb for her check up, haiz can't wait to see and carry mine too.

are, peg peg, tbl,
actually i am quite an "optimist" because every morning i wake up thinking "maybe this will be the day the MS stops!" unfortunately the day has not come yet.
last night for some reason i was really tired and slept from 7-11pm and again from 12am till this morning. is there any such thing as "sleeping too much"? because i still feel tired this morning.

and i've been very tired lately too and always trying to think of excuses not to come to work whenever i wake up in the morning!
furthermore, the weather has become cooler so how nice if i can sleep in!!!
