do u all go for post natal classes? dunno if shld take up or not.. cos not cheap.. is it really necessary? does the nurses show u how to bathe the bb after we delivered?
 
Hi misaryeo,
I'll be going for my 1st antenatal class at TMC this coming Thursday. Dunno how it'll be like. Will update u after my class. Personally, I feel that the antenatal class will b more useful for my hubby so that he'll be more involved in our pregnancy. Cos right now, other than feeling the movements on my tummy, he dun get to experince any of the sensations that we have been feeling for the last 6-7mthd...

And I belive a more involved hubby will become a more involved daddy next time.
 
Hi all MTB,

Wonder if any of you attended yoga conducted for preggie ladies. My wife and my neighbour have been pampering themselves for the past 1 mth going for yoga. They are loving every minute of it. What I notice is, after going for the yoga, my wife nowadays have a better night sleep, less cramps, or should I say I have a better nite sleep coz no need to wake up to massage her leg.LOL.....

My wife have also been getting massage for preggie about 2 to 3 times a month. She said it is very relaxing for her.

Hope everyone is have a great time now. Coz I have been experiencing a very active boy now, we always talk to him and he always never fail to respond by kicking or punching to reply to us.

3rd Trimester now.....in no time, we should be hearing all the good news here.
 
Wow Liverpool, my preferred club, well actually chose it just to spite my hubby and all relatives who are so Man-U

.

Can sponsor us ladies who seriously need a good massage and yoga diet heee..heeee....guess a no. of us including myself are experiencing cramps

Wahhhh...if only hubby takes the hint from you ah...sponsor my massage sessions, then he can sleep better at nite.
 
Hi everyone,

I went for my checkup on sat. Everything is fine and my boy is 1.16kg. Gd weight and i have put on some weights. Cos due to my durian intake last week.

YB,
My GP suspect i may some mild thyriod problem. I told my gynae and he sent me for some test. Will update me once the blood test is back.
 
thks YB, please let me know.. btw how much u paid for ur class?

liverpool11.. its true that yoga does help MTB alot.. like those u mentioned.. i does yoga at home at i can feel it really help wif the cramps, sleep..etc.. ur wife so lucky to hav neighbour to go wif her.. which makes the class more enjoyable. btw which yoga place ur wife goes to?
 
hi liverpool, can share with me where does ur wife go to for her yoga lessons? i'm interested too but am not sure which places are good. thanks!
 
hi hong,

how many weeks r u in now? last week I went for check and my boy is bout 1.2kg.. hee.. doc say good weight too..

Y your Gp suspect the thyroid prob.. u got blood test recently isit?
 
If I am not wrong, its GAIA Yoga, if you have TMC FBI card, you are entitled 2 additonal free lessons for 10 lessons u sign up. My wife mention that the good thing is the class is small, so that the instructor can guide and correct all MTB while doing the yoga.
 
Hi Hong,
Wish u good luck!! Try not to worry too much. I now know that thyroid can be easily controlled.

Hi Misaryeo,
I paid $210 for 5 lessons & 1 talk. It's more ex cos I do not deliver in TMC.
 
Joan,
I told him i feel uncomfortable at my neck area... My mum used to have thyroid issue.
Yah i think 1.16kg is on a gd weight range. Shld be able to get a 3kg++ baby is baby continue to grow at this rate.

YB,
I wasnt that worried. I dun have all the Thyroid symptons. My blood pressure and heart rate is also gd. The GP said some preggie will have mild thyroid symptons during pregnancy. He said just to play safe.
 
Hi Sheena.

My EDD also on 11th July.. i think jurong also on 11th july..anyway i have chosen the 2 bedded when i went for check up on sat. How abt u?

By the way i read from other thread that Mt A gives baby bathtub..not sure if i want to buy beforehand...do u know anything abt that??

My baby is 1.14kg at week 28.5..
 
Hi MTBs,
Have somethg to check wif all of u. Felt a "continuous throbbing" on the left abs that lasts a while to a few min. At times it comes together wif bb's kicking. Feel as tho' like "heartbeat pumping away". Its qte faint, so goto touch 2 feel it. Anyone experiences this? Can it be hiccups?? Kinda disturbed abt this.

Hi Mel,

I was sick with gastric flu last week, severe diarrhoea, vomitting and high fever...
 
Sorry to all MTB, my wife just mention that the FBI card entitled you to only 1 additional GAIA Yoga lesson instead of 2 as stated above. Sorry if I cause any inconvience.
 
jurong,
wow sounds like u are terribly sick. Hope u are ok now..
.i have been relocated to another office thus quite busy,but i am still reading the thread everyday..

Have u booked your bed in Mt A? what did u choose?
I will be getting baby cot mattress, avent manual pump from cheong choon...have to make a visit to see what items they sell..hopefully can get most of the things there. How abt u?

What have u bought??
The things that i do not know what to buy is milk bottles & teats...

Maybe u can give me some tips.
 
hi Hong and Mel,

Me feeling much better now,thx. Just tat tummy still has lotsa wind,feeling bloated. nw that im better, my poor hubby kena the same virus from me, so he's sick at hm...
 
hi Mel,

I plan to get baby cot from Cheong choon as well! U getting the denmark or vietnam 1 ? when r u plannin to go there ? Generally their price is good, even for strollers as well.

So far, just buy many small items like Nuk bottles and teats, nappy liners,clothes, rompers and 2 boxes of breast pads cos i dunno which brand is good...

For milk bottles and teats, must ask 2nd time mummies for advice liao. What i heard is that Avent, Nuk and Pigeon peristaltic teats are highly recommended....

hi all...

wow... think my bb is one of the heaviest here... 1.4kg at week 27 leh! faintz! :p

i also plan to get cot from cheong choon....
dunno if we can get discount if we buy in bulk hor? :p i am looking at the denmark one. how abt Jurong gal & Mel
 
misaryeo - Cheong Choon is at Chinatown...
building just beside OG.

rates of course cheaper than shopping centres, i feel tat it's comparable to BB kingdom/hypermart.
 
hi mel

i am also planning to deliver at mt A 4-bedded cos recommended by many friends and have personally seen the 4 bedded wards which are quite new as they have been reburbished. they do give you a bath tub which is included in the package already. its a very basic one without the drainage plug. green colour. i actually bought a tub already cos prefer one with the plug.
 
I already have a cot...only have to get the mattress...i called & check the price of cot mattress is abt $35 for the most ex one..reasonable..i saw @ Hypermart costs about $60.. by the way Cheong choon is not open on sun & ph..so shld be going down one of the sat ..it closes @ 7pm..

I haven got a single clothing for my baby..have to start shopping liao..else tummy gets bigger..

Cheong Choon is @ Chinatown..purchases above $100 free delivery .

Hi MTDT,

Winnie said there will be discount if we can get at least 5 cots. Tink will be discount of $10/cot for Vietnam and $15/cot discount for denmark. (tink not convenient to post the price here lar)

Hi Mel,

So good that u have cot liao, can save $$ cos cot not cheap ley. For me no hands me down so gotta get new stuff.... By the way, thanks for the reminder that they are closed on sun, my DH plannin to go down this sun, otherwise will make a wasted trip.
 
hong, coz i din feel such "throbbing" b4 this weekend & its qte continuous for a few mins. Dunno wat it is. Checked wif clinic, said mite be hiccup or bb breathing. Monitoring, mite go n see the gynae.
 
jurong gal - wow.. 5 cots huh? tat's a lot leh.
we only hv 2 person here. :p

Vietnam - i dun recall seeing vietnam one. it is also 4 adjustable levels?

i noe the denmark one is 4 adjustable levels rite.
 
Jazzy,
if hiccup then is quite harmless.
U are due for checkup? I understand 1st time MTB is a bit anxious but dun give urself too much stress.
 
Jazzy,
Me too! It felt like the heart throbbing on the left of the pelvis....as though the heart dropped from the chest to the pelvis. It'll go away after a few minutes, so I'm not so bothered. let me know what your doctor says.

Gals,
Is cheong Choon like BB Hypermart/Kingdom? What products do they carry other than Cot and Prams? I still need to buy quite a number of stuff like breast pump, pram, thermometer etc.

The forehead+ear scan thermometer was only like max $80 at Mother and Baby Fair last round, now it's $90+ at some shops...sigh, regret not buying. I think I'll wait for Motherhood Fair, hopefully they have another promotion.

I read in another thread that there is an Avent Open House on 13 May, anyone going??
 
Hi MTDT,

Cant rem the Vietnam cot is 3 adjustable levels or 4 adjustable levels.

Hi Poppy,

Cheong Choon also sell other stuff like breast pumps,breast pads, highchair etc... quite worth taking a look.
 
Joan
the doctor recommand me to undergo caesarean it's because i gt backach ma so the doctor scared that if normal brith my backach will be serious... so no choice got to choose caesarean

Mel and Jurong
Your due date is as same as mine but i think i will be eariler that that because due to caesarean btw u all talk about the baby cot and i'm thinking of buying one also. i bought the playpen for my mum side and for my side i'm thinking of buying a cot but the color of the cot got white color one ma??
 
Sheena, Jurong and MTDT,
Re: Baby cot
Me too intend to get a baby cot. There's a bulk purchase on Denmark cot ongoing.. Supplier is Cheong Choon.. I'm still considering cos have never seen the cot and not sure about the quality.. Have you all seen the cot and how's the wood quality?

MTDT and Jurong gal,
I've PM you some details on the bulk purchase.. can reply me?

Sheena,
Just realised that I can't PM you.. mind to email me at [email protected] if you are interested to join the bulk purchase? It's going to close soon and the mummy who organise this BP is chasing after me for reply as other mummies can't wait further liao..
 
Hi Joline,

Got ur PM. For Cheong Choon, they dun have the cot, just have the pics.. Went to hyperstore some time back but didn rem which is the denmark cot cos that time only look c look c. So not sure abt the quality...
 
jurong gal,

The organiser said that this cot comes with teething guard.. and another mummy said BB hypermart selling at $400+ at hyperstore? Now if really can get such a low price then it is very worth it lor.. I'm trying to ask the organiser to hold on the BP until next Tuesday.. hopefully this weekend hubby got time to bring me down to hyperstore and see the model..
 
hihi Jolin
thanks for organising this BP.
Jurong gal CC have the display denmark cot but its a very small one. Babyhyperstore too. Baby hyperstore selling at $299 leh. I asked b4.
For those who are interested in this bulk purchase pls do so quickly and pls dont disclose the bulk purchase agent to baby hyperstore and ask for the same price.They will accuse them of spoiling the market and we will not get the BP. price lia. email me with your full details mailing add , preferred col, contact no if you want to join this BP. Will tell you the BP price then.
