1sttimemum,
Pigeon got 1 type of waterproof mat, which is white in colour one. I think that is better than the rubber cot mat coz it has no smell and u can fold and bring out. Anyway, I bought that to put on bb bed lor. I also bought the rubber kind one to put on my bed for bb after bath. Anyway, the pigeon water proof mat that I mentioned is now selling at $17+, original price is $22+ so I think it's quite worth it lor. Can go check it out.

1sttimemum,
The rubber mat I bought is blue in color, quite heavy and come in a box. I think it cost me $10+ only (i'll go home to check the receipt).
Alternatively, can buy those waterproof cot sheet, very light, can fold and bring out and cost $6.90-$7.90.
My fav is the one from mothercare, small and very light but size might be too small for home use.

RE: Maternity leave
Koalarie, i was still thinking of working until I'm due..cos also nothing to do at home & rather weird cos my MIL will be coming over to stay w me then oredi..so a bit weird to face her alone at home..though sooner or later also hv to cos she'll b taking care of me during confinement.
RE: BH
Think mine's getting more often..and feels funny as if bb is moving to one side cos only one side of tummy hardens..rather uncomfortable feeling. Anyone also like dat? Then there's also a slight pain/ache like when u r having cramps..so dunno whether how to tell whether it's labour pains..cos yest, mine was very near apeart...quite worried.

Yukie,
think the one you bought is Annauku brand not Pigeon.
Anyway, should be similar in material. I'm using a Pureen one. Hahahaha...you all must be thinbking why I keep 'promoting' Pureen.
No lah, me not their sales rep. Just that I received several Pureen products, including washing detergent, nappy liners, half a dozen old nappies, baby head-to-toe wash, changing mat, non-slip mat and a training cup from my relative. So good lor
I don't need to buy these items.

shylyn, yukie,
same same feeling.. think it is BH.. but not sure.. but the place that harden seems like bb's legs or knees or butts or head or hands one. Very nice 2 touch and massage the hard hard portion. =p
shylyn,
Re: Maternity Leave
Wish I'd take later.. but i really scared tat last minute water breaks in the middle of i no where.. then difficult to control also. =p But then at home, easy to clean up. The only thing is to pray tat bb doesn't come too fast after water breaks while my hb rushes home 2 bring me to hospital. Dun want to take cab to hospital as I feel closer if hb is with me together. =)

1sttimemum, saw ur posting about the Medela Mini Electric Pump. I bought one too.. It is loud and have problem with the assembly.. cos if not fix properly, it is not pumping.. and i always have problem with the fixing part.. afterall, the pumping part is ok.. went to KK to buy.. i think it is much cheaper than outside.. bought it at $128.. how much is the market selling? the Avent Manual pump also selling cheap there..

Yukie,
Don't know good or not cos bb not out yet. So haven't tried.
Hehe. Also haven't collected. Still stored at the Baby's Hypermart store. But got it cos it's compatible with my Quinny stroller.
Hunniepot,
The milk bag clips, besides Ikea, I believe you can use the clips from Avent. If you don't mind buying online, babytown and baby sayang sells them.

hi hunniepot, my gynae ask me to see him at week 38 which is next week lor. this week he not seeing me. i've only done squats in the pool as i find it easier and less tiring on the thigh muscles. but i will try on "Dry Land" since your gynae advise 4 easier labour.
BTW, my gynae not even did a V check at week 36. keep telling me take it easy.

Koalarie,
I got the Quinny Speedi SX. Only facing front and I think can only be used on bb that is 6 months and above. That's why I got the Maxi Cosi Cabrio which is the infant car seat. Can use the Maxi Cosi on the Quinny for below 6 months. Just take out the main section of the Quinny and install the Maxi Cosi on the frame. With the Maxi Cosi, the baby will be facing you. The Quinny Speedi SX is 489 and the Maxi Cosi is 247. I reserved them in Dec05.

re : mat leave, i'm taking AL (use up 05 leave) from 3 Apr (2 weeks before EDD). gyne said no need to take so early wor, better to be at work than bored at home, but i don't care la, want to hv some free time to myself first b4 hving no more time when baby comes.
re : car seat
this is a site which i used for research
http://www.childcarseats.org.uk/standards/r4403.htm
in the end we bought a Britax CosyTot ISOFix infant car seat. the ISOFix makes the seat safer cos (1) it attached directly to metal bars that are part of the car frame...but not all cars hv these bars (2) reduced the risk of incorrect fitting by parents. It is a new standard in Europe for child seats. So far for infant seats, only Maxicosi and Britax have (other brands also hv but for older kids)
the ISOFix cost more than non-Isofix seats, but we got it cos we felt better to spend for the safety of baby. Ours was ordered from UK, but Mothercare supposed to have. (there's a long story about the terrible cust service I got from MC about buying this seat but in the end they cannot promise to get it in time so we ordered from overseas. if you want the story, another time I tell u personally or PM u)
re : breech baby
anyone else baby still breech? my stubbon angel 35 weeks already still breech, Dr suggest we tilt the bed so that my hips higher than shoulder. wa... so difficult for sleeping. any one got any other suggestions?
