[sandylove]

Mummies,

[hong]

tat is something very interesting leh. thanks for sharing..

Fruitee,
u secure so if Kayden move ard so wun drop but he need to get use in the carrier. U must use it every weekend. Stime bb scream not because they dun like cos they are sleepy.

 

[kloe]

Very tempted to get ergo carrier leh after reading all the commemts. I also have "problem" going out alone with baby... cannot use stroller as my place to MRT is not stroller friendly. Hope we can hit 15pcs soon!

 

[eeyore_03]

hong, u wanna wash the carrier, js copied from the net

Fabric Info and Care
100% cotton
Machine wash with mild detergent on gentle cycle. Dry on delicate cycle and remove when seams are still damp. Spot wash when needed, do not machine wash frequently. Frequent washing and harsh detergents can cause 100% cotton to break down faster. DO NOT SOAK YOUR ERGO CARRIER.

 

[jenn77]

Brambles
eh.. how u wan me to pass to you? Hmm.. if i not wrong, it's either 10 or 15% discount.

Dsii
The ergo carrier is good but facing inward.. scare the boys will get bored after awhile.. then start to struggle like hell.. I so small size sure peng san one

 

[eeyore_03]

hi kin, from the pic it looks like 1 shoulder carrier, is it easy to carry? I prefer to use the sling but my hb dunno how to use so he must use a carrier then can... can't be possibly I'm the only one to carry charlene...

 

[lucida]

Hi ylc, I got the black with cranberry lining also

My husband insisted on that colour so he can use the carrier without looking sissy.

Hi Dsii, The price includes delivery.

 

[dsii]

zita
nope not with me..i pass to PM last trial class...

lucida
then hot bo? just discussed with ylc last nite..worried black absorbs heat..hehehe

 

[hong]

Eeyore,
thanks..

 

[dsii]

fruitee
hmm...read from other thread...

1) my mothercare carrier supports groin, but ergo supports bum, which i think is more ideal (esp for boys);

2) my mothercare carrier caused me terrible backache, but not ergo;

3) i thought ergo's philosophy on front-facing is quite logical, to me at least: "Infants in outward-facing orientations cant turn away from surrounding stimuli. They can't turn inward toward a parent's body if stimuli become overwhelming. In this position the baby cannot make eye contact with his or her parent to evaluate facial expressions, social cues, and so forth to make assessment of the situation" From my own experience, whenever my baby gets tired from all the surrounding stimuli, he would just conveniently slump his head on my chest and fall asleep.

Morning mummies,

I will be changing job soon. So next time if weekend u all got gathering or any baby trial class, can join u all liao...

New job weekends off so better also, got more time for the kids. But pay not so gd lar...

 

[jenn77]

dsii
I might be interested to get.. include me hor.

 

[lucida]

Hi Mich, You changing job? Me got one offer but in terms of working hours, my current job better. The new job need to work shift. Still thinking about it.
Sometimes felt like taking a half-year no-pay leave to just be with baby. Current job allows thsi type of arrangement but I need to wait till around August as need advnace notice. still thinking... haiz..

 

[ordinary75]

Hi Dsii,

I'm interested too. I mean in the carrier.

 

[lucida]

Hi Dsii,
I think black is ok lar. I mean you are not going to stand for long under sun right? I quite like the cream colour but get dirty easy and hubby say look sissy. So got the black one lor.

 

[sandylove]

MTDT,
the diaper bag, I think Kay really busy with her new born and she also in her full term stage when she do the BP.
She must be having hard time now.

 

[missmoon]

dsii
u wanna get ergo carrier? how does it look like ah? me sua ku, neh see before, me use sling nia

 

[kin]

Eeyore,
i still think even for yourself, the ergo is a better choice. But I can always pass you this one. you see if ok. if not, can always give away.I'm not sure if easy. To me, it was not so.Let me know yah.

Mich,
good to hear from you! All the best for your new job!Join us when you can!

 

[mtdt]

helo..

MICH!!!! wow... long time no see u.
good tat u r changing job!! then we can see u more often!

Sandy - i am not under her diaper bag spree. but polo spree. she make me lose all interest in polo liao! haha

 

[kin]

dsii,
I think Ergo the best choice. Even my girl now, I can use on her. so weight and size in not a problem. Abt hot,Gladys will perspire at the head only. The body, not really.

 

[peachsorbet]

zita, hahaha.. i bought mine at tampines near the tampines east cc there. but true leh. this type of shop very rare these days. sigh. these type of programs are good, but very heart pain to pay alot of $$$ for them. glad u like the program too! haha.. now is to find the add-ons to the program so can do even more than the stock provided.


Mich, congrats on the new job. I'm still trying to do my resume (procrasination at its peak!!! everytime go back, sayang kristen, do her blog/photos/watch tv with hubby then sleep). haha.. everytime I spot very tempting jobs to apply for in the papers or online. but then... think about not being able to take leave about every fortnightly for my girl's therapy (meaning my hubby n maid have to go n i can't go) .. sigh. very torn. wanna do own biz also so can have d flexibility to go for whatever hospital thing my girl needs.. hai. so many things wanna do but really need to go n do it. way to go on finding a new job!

Sandy, can understand that Kay is busy with her new born. think all the mummies had been very understanding with her. just that the promises to send the items/refunds all not met, so it had been a very frustrating 3 months lor. simple accounting rite.. if there's an item there shld be a payment, n if there's no item, the money shld be returned. now got money floating around go dunno who's pocket already. anyway.. most likely she shld most likely be earning some $$$ from this... can pay $25 to start d thread s'more. hai. anyway, she has finally set deadline. so.. if not met then think pple will really go after her. or maybe go to CASE? So BP starters must be very careful n be aware of the difficulties. =/


MTDT, yah lor. really make me traumatized over BPs.. haha.. u noe whaaat. i suspect the polo might be fake. the cutting is quite.. off. i compared the pinky pony one she sold me n this other multi-coloured pony one.. the sizing n material quite different. but dunwan to say in that thread la. juz shut up liao..

 

[eeyore_03]

wah, the photoshop download very slow... or am i doing the wrong way??

 

[mtdt]

heard alot of complains abt the polo quality too.

tat's why i keep asking her if no one buy her leftover polos, then how?

 

[dsii]

[poohy_bear]

Hong,

Not sure on my mtd relation to "Mo Dang" discovery ..I used it when my elder gal got stubborn fever viruses..Kin's mtd seem workable & logical, cos heat travel upwards mah, so by cooling down the head & warming the legs should promote temp circulation thus bringing down the fever. U try her mtd & do update us whether it helps. BTW, didu let yr girl take the flu jab? My girl used to be v sickly, almost got fever every mth. After taking the flu jab, her frequencies of fever reduced a lot..
Hope yr girl get well soon..

 

[dsii]

oops..forgot kloe..hahaha....jialat..paiseh ah..kloe

 

[dsii]

alamak..still got 8 more to go leh...

 

[hong]

Poohy,
actually my ger dun fall sick so often. PD realised she always got high fever, cough n flu almost every 3 months. He told us was not bad cos some kids see him every month.

Somemore this time i think she fall sick after 5 months. A very gd record and she didnt fall sick in the 1st term of her school. We are very glad.

infact is my GP told me to get flu jab every year cos i have sensitive nose and i always down very badly.

 

[eeyore_03]

submitted my bb photo for baby & cover model catergory... but will get posted next week only

 

[poohy_bear]

Hong,

OIC..Yr girl immunity consider high hor for kid of her age..

 

[ordinary75]

Hi mummies,

How do you poo poo your bbs these days? My ger has been so active and we have a hard time keeping her still on the bed when she poos. Sometimes, she poo half way and start turning her and there. How ah?? Can buy potty for her to sit already?

 

[missmoon]

may
i let my bb poo into potty leh. since he was 3mths+ he is now being potty trained on those toy-like potty, heh.

 

[sandylove]

Mummies,
have u heard of autism ? I read a magazine that wrote about autism. Her Boy seem normal before 1 year old but after 1 year old they realised thier boy kept banging his head and flapping hands. Her aunties who have an autism child advice her to seek pro help. In the end, diagnose to be autism

I super worried leh... the same feeling b4 labour . Scare BB born adnormal etc... *Touchwood*

 

[peachsorbet]

may.. what do you mean? how to change the poo-poo issit?.. erm. i fight with my girl. sometimes i surrender n give her the tube of drapolene to distract her or the pigeon wet wipes.. or the wallable star next to her changing table (which cannot be used cos she will flip and attempt to crawl off the table). yesterday was bad. she screamed n wailed cos i refused to let her flip.
ever when wearing clothes she wants to flip n go to dunno where.


eeyore - yay! will go n vote for charlene!!


dsii, maybe u can try to negotiate with the supplier to give u a lower minimum order? she's a pretty nice n friendly lady. that time went to her place to try n buy the ergo there. it's at changi area, quite near our place... can ask ur hubby to drive u there. think have 7 already quite good rite. heeehee..

 

[sandylove]

missmoon,
what time of potty u use ? My boy buttock too big to fit into the potty which my mother bought as my dowary. lol

 

[nyc]

I have the same problem as Peach... i have to fight my girl n pin her down in order to change her diapers... be it poo or pee. Either that distract her lor. She will scream her lungs out n fight us till the end... after changing her diapers, she will cry until like we bully her like that... so poor thing. but for her own gd!
Sigh... i also dunno when to potty train her....

 

[peachsorbet]

missmoon - really ah? cannot sit but u let him poo in the potty? how u do it? hee.. my mum went to buy a small potty in my girl already. i was like.. r u sure?!?! oOopz. how u do it?


ylc - sigh same. she makes me feel like an evil mummy. but no choice rite. maybe soon have to change to pull-up pants? one of my friends told me she uses pull-ups for her boy (he was about 1 yr old then) cos he cannot lie still. so have to change him standing up. n i was laughing at the ridiculousness of the situation. now looks like i mite have the same problem in my hands.

 

[sandylove]

Ylc & Peach,
maybe u all can start potty train. Watch for sign of them wanting to poo or pee. Boy easy especially he nt wearing diaper.
My boy is pottty trained by my mother and I also learnt to watch out for sign . It really help save diaper and water to wash nappy in some way. You also no need to "fight" with them.
