hi ladies,
I m looking for a 1kg cake for my gal's birthday celebration in her play school.
Any recommendations? Not too sweet. I wanted the princess series, but minium is 2kg. Her teacher mentioned 1 kg is more than sufficient.
anyone knows of any contact of balloon? Thinking of giving every child one each.So 12 altogether.
Usually, what to give for this kind of celebration. Never done this before

may birthday:
So far Kaelyn's school is still ok with birthday party. I assume that I can continue celebrating on 12. So far for what i know is that they only allow 2 visitors for the birthday party. What I'm afraid is that there will be a school closure and I have to eat up my 1.5kg cake!!!!

Cheri,

<font color="0000ff">lh_jyc,
Of course you are <u>not</u> a lousy mummy as being a FTWM can be very demanding and tiring.
Skipping a pumping session will definitely affect your supply as BM production actually peaks in the night. If you want to skip that session, you may feel slightly engorged at 6am but your body should adjust after a few days. Some people may experience more EBM output at the 6am session but definitely not to expect to pump the total amount of (2am + 6am) sessions.
Have your twins started to sleep through the night?</font>

<font color="0000ff">\h_jyc,
Sleeping through the night is actually defined as sleeping continuously for <u>5 hours or more</u>. So, if your twins sleep 11pm, they're considered as sleeping through liao.
Since you intend to stop expressing 1.5 months later, do try to persevere till then. Great cheers for you! Yipee!
E has only started to sleep through for some nights. He used to wake up several times in the night until about 2 weeks ago. Hopefully, he'll continue doing so. *hopeful*
BTW, there'll be an event at Jurong Point this Sat relating to Breastfeeding Mother's Support Group (BMSG). I'll post the details later.</font>

Mothers, we want to recognise your determination and dedication to continue breastfeeding even as you return to work. Come on down with your baby or breast pump and have a treat on us! Receive a Momo Baby BPA-free Wide Neck Plastic bottle worth $7.90 and “Express Yourself, Mummy!”
And Mothers’ Day is not complete without our children. Your decision to breastfeed will reap a lifetime of benefits for our children! We invite children, aged 6 years and below, to express their love and appreciation for their mothers’ with a “Tribute to My Mother” drawing and story writing contest.
So come on down and join us in our Happy Breastfeeding Mothers’ Day Celebration with Guest of Honour Mdm. Ho Geok Choo, MP of West Coast GRC. Lots of fun awaits you.

<font color="0000ff">DS and I have been sick for the past few days - cough and such. It's esp. bad for DS as he'd got a fever last Friday and only subsided yesterday. He's still coughing badly (phlegmy) and rubbing his nose hard.
Is there anyway to get rid of his phlegm as he's waking me every 2 hours in the night when he coughed and woke during sleep. I nearly fainted due to lack of sleep on Monday morning and gotta take urgent leave to rest. Ended up catching the virus from him. Managed to apply 1/2 day leave this morning to catch up some sleep but can't do it anymore as my colleague is on leave. Hope this ordeal will end soon. Feel so tired and terrible ...</font>
