Think the digital scrapbook site peach recommended http://www.freedigitalscrapbooking.com/index.html is pretty easy to use compare to shabby princess. Shabby princess files are v large, often take v long to download. Thanx for sharing the site..
Hi Dsii/ylc, I got the Ergo carrier. My husband and I love it. I think it's more versatile than Baby Bjorn (which I sold off cos' baby getting bigger). Ergo can cater for bigger babies also so more economical in the long run.
Ergo has this waist belt similar to the ones used by trekkers backpacks. Provide good support so less weight on the shoulder.

lucida,
thks for ur advice... now gotta convince hb to get that so i wont suffer any more backaches haha
we didnt want to change cus we think cait will grow n get heavier... the carriers can hold up to 10kg? Cait have got 3kg more to go... how long will the carrier last? but now seems like cait can hardly gain much weight so might consider hehe

Hi Dsii, It will be a good deal if you can get 20% off. I needed to get one fast that time so did not wait for BP. Couple of online site selling and the price is the same - $168. I got mine from MummyMilk, or something like tat.
Hi ylc, What Dsii say is right. The carrier quite heavy duty. It depends on how much and how fast your baby grows. From the demo video, this carrier can be tahan toddler weight.. I like it cos' I can carry baby on my front or back position. So when I'm eating I can just "swing" him to the back.

Morning mummies,
dsii,
the ergo can carry Janelle.
Yenny,
we thot to join next yr which is pretty early but if joining benefit hubby i think worth it. Let him go and socialise and make more friends.
Talking abt 1/2km. Angry.. i think MOE change the requirement again. If i depend on 1/2KM i dun know which phase then i can go in and register.
My parent pri is Temasek, but a bit far for us.
joykel,
Yah... i guess she will enjoy playing with ur boy. think Kin also bringing her daughter right.
Btw, Janelle is sick... haizzzz
Kin, poohy, yenny, Dsii
at our elder kids age now. Do u think let him sweat out will help them to bring the temperature down? U know sometime when we adult need to "sweat out".
Of course, providing the kid are hydrated. Janelle was sweating the whole last nite. The pillow was all wet but her temperature was down after that.

Hong,
Not sure abt sweating out..but there was few incident whereby my girl got high fever & is like peak every 3 hrs..tried all mtd also no use, then my colleague recommended me a funny mtd. First, boil a egg till hard-boiled, next insert a pure silver object into the egg(can be coin..), rub the egg(while is hot) on the body..and guess what, when we broke open the egg, the yoke was like "blue black". According to my colleague, there r wind that cause the fever, by rubbing the egg with silver object & purge the wind out...v funny hor, but it worked for me sometimes...

Hong,
I'm not sure. sometimes my hubby will ask me to cover the child to let the child sweat all out. But usu, when the temp is v v high like 38.5, and climbing, this method don't work. Maybe it's a coincidence temp go down. I'm really not sure but i don't risk it. Like when my girl got gastric flu, temp went to 38.5 to 39.5 in less than 15min. All the spongin didn't help to lower but to maintain only. However, my maid ask me to do this method and it worked.It was my last resort. Soaked my girls feet in a tub of very very warm water,(to me pretty hot) and then, use a towel to wrap the girl(she is sitting down), and then on her head, place a towel wrapped with ice. After 15-20min, her temp really came down and she did perspire. So, really don't know. Can try...
dsii,
I think JP also interested..but she seldom come online.Wow, so many getting the ergo.
mummies
To me, I love it very much. If baby is fussy and struggles, still ok. Coz, when you plce child inside, quite secure. Downside is that the child can only face inside not outside at all. To all mummies who need to bring bb out on bus journeys etc, and always on your own, it is really very good... Hot.....not really. Colour to me dun matter. My red one so dark but still ok...

Yenny, Kin, Pooh,
thanks.
Pooh,
Yah the egg method. I actually forgot abt it. My mum always do that to us when we are young. Old pple say if the egg yolk got hair like line mean "Mo dang" right.
Kin,
that is a strange method but worth trying. I will check with my MIL if Jan fever still climbing up.
Ergo Carrier - yah bb can only face inward. Not very interesting to the bb cos facing mummy. hahahaha. however very secure and gd support for our back.
Kin, did u watch the carrier? Can i know how to wash it? Mine was t-loan from a frd. I wanna wash it cos got Julian salivate and i dun want to spoilt the carrier.

Hong,
I think it makes some sort of sense becoz of circulation.AFter that, my girl did feel better..
The carrier, can wash - but don't soak . Just machine wash and spin dry for 2-3 min only. IF only saliva, then just spot wash ie. take a wet towel with detergent and sponge and sponge and rinse and rinse with another clean cloth with just water. Will get clean. Its not recommended to machine wash all the time.
Mummies,
I wanna to let go a brand new baby carrier which i dun want coz not so good compared to sling and sarong. Bought it out of impulse 2 yrs ago, never used it. Cost $28.90. Wanna put at forum to sell but any july mummy wants it just as a spare, i can give. But personally not as gd as the other carriers.I tried it on my older girl, she didn't like it. Its brand: babecare.
