i have not given bread. I scared my rachel cannot swallow it properly. I rather wait till she can chew her food. I think giving porridge is more nutritous than giving bread as you can include a lot of food in your porridge such as fish, meat, vege ....

<font color="0000ff">Buttons n Brenda, Thanks for the advice on Kiwi. Will feed her kiwi when she is much older then. Would not want her to end up having allergies.</font>
<font color="aa00aa">Sha</font>, Thanks for the compliments! Adele is also rejecting her head band now. Initially, she is ok. But now, whenever I put the head band for her, she will start to make noise. *headache* But I really love the head band. In fact, I am thinking of buying another one for her 1 year old birthday.

Hi Nedlands,
I bought the bike at Blk 164, Bukit Merah Central. It is a HDB shop which is right before the Bukit Merah food centre.
As I shared with Yuna, I bought a walker from that shop for $42.... only to regret the purchase 2 hours later. I dragged that walker back to the seller and asked if I could return the item as I have not used it. He refused to grant me a refund, but asked me to exchange it for any product in the shop. Well well.... what to do? It's my own fault. I was in no position to bargain. I asked how much the push bike was, and he quoted me $50 and refused to lower the price. So in the end I got the push bike for $50. I am sure any one of you gals could get a cheaper deal than I did...
That shop has all sorts of toddler push bikes in various designs, colours, sizes... They even have tandem bikes and trishaw bikes where one toddler will cycle and the other can sit on the side and relax!!! Amazing.
Hope this helps.
Hi Brenda,
You can trust my husband to come up with money saving ideas like that!!! We are the exact opposites.... Yes, he works near there, so it's pretty convenient.
Hi JRT,
That's a good one!!! hehe... saving the best for GSS i mean...
Trust you to think of that!

For me, sometimes I do feed separately though. No hard and fast rule to apply for this.

<font color="0077aa"><font size="+1">edksd</font></font>, from my understanding, if u go to polyclinic to get a referral, u can use your CPF-Medisave to pay for wisdom tooth dentistry and also will be cheaper if u do it at the National Dental Centre at SGH..
<font color="0077aa"><font size="+1">Buttons</font></font>, wa say, your Chinese hen hao! Thanks dear!
<font color="0077aa"><font size="+1">Mrs Chia</font></font>, I plan to give A bread when she hits 10 months, I'm not comfy with the fact about gluten intolerance - Wheat! but yes, many other mummies I know already started wheat with their bbs so if you're comfy u can go ahead.. but do watch her closely while she eats cos she might get choke with it since it's dry. And if wheat, oats and barley are no issue with u, I suggest u can also feed Yun with Oat meal, Wheat Cereal or even Mashed SWEET potatoes. What kind of ideas do u want? is it staple? if it is, then I guess it's those few lah..
<font color="0077aa"><font size="+1">Angeline</font></font>, is this Sat's gathering still confirmed? cos I might've something on, do let me know soon yah..
<font color="0077aa"><font size="+1">Yuna</font></font>, yep! I agree with your findings of the info from babycentre. That's why my A never worn any booties/shoes or even mittens, cos they need to learn to grab things so if we wrap their toes/fingies up, we are making it more difficult for them!

Hi,
I'm one of those people who love going to the zoo...I'm wondering if any mummies here would like to make a day trip to the zoo on a WEEK DAY...maybe next week...
I should be able to get free passes for at least 8 adults (babies are free) so u can bring ur maids too with no charge....
Went there about a week ago and I had so much fun! It should take us less than 2 hours for a leisurely walk around the zoo...its mostly shaded and no MOSSIES (but we did use a mossie patch on baby)when I was there...it was a great workout for me (boy, I really needed the exercise!)
anybody keen? only on WEEK DAY, because weekend is too crowded...
Usual fee is $16 per adult, but I can get free passes...Don't worry about strollers, they rent out the lightweight Maclaren strollers...or we can just sit on the tram...its $5 for unlimited rides around the zoo....

Buttons,
You've got the bike too??? Good!!! I am going to get the bike out this weekend and put Clarence on it! Hope he likes it!
No probs about the recc....
Anyway, I just met up with an old JC schoolmate for lunch... She was griping throughout the lunch that her husband is from Catholic Primary Sch and it is an all boys' school, while she is from a neighbourhood primary school, so her 16mths' old daughter (born in Feb 2006) has no primary school to go to next time. And in the next breath, she was asking if I know of any good schools which accept donations.... She is willing to contribute up to $30K, and do whatever it takes to get a place (such as spending every weekend for the next 5 years cleaning the school's toilets)!!!
Anyway, my eyes nearly popped, and the piece of carrot cake which I was about to put into my mouth just slid back to the plate. $30K???!!! That could have fund a local university education. I have not even thought of which playschool to enrol my son, and my friend was already fretting around for a primary school. Maybe she is an outlier... or maybe the value of money has shrunken to that extent that $30K has become immaterial. Whatever it is, it is still incomprehensible.
Well well, I dun have $30K to spare like this, and even IF I do, I probably will be spending it on buying something tangible rather than buying a place for Clarence in a good primary school... And anyway, GSS IS COMING!!!! Hehe... Buttons, thanks for the post!!!

so cute!!!!!!!. would love to join, but too bad, leaving on Monday alrady.
Buttons,
Waaa......... How can I go to so many places in just 2.5 days? Can someone teach me how to be "Sun Wu Kong" (chinese monkey god) and duplicate myself so I can cover more grounds.
Don't worry about the swim diapers. I am bringing a whole pack, so you can have a few pieces of mine. Can just wear the trunks and a singlet on top is you wish. You see many adults wearing T shirt on top of swimsuit at the beach too rite?

peachie,
what a coincedence. There's just chat today in the SGP mummies in HK forum about schooling in HK. I just got a book to readup over lunch about the costs of internation schools and my eyes just pop out. Almost 20K SGD a year just for the school fees for pre-school / primary school. And still have to put a deposit / debenture of about another 20K SGD. This does not include the misc fees such as school bus, field trips etc....
I must either double my salary in the next 3 years or definately move back !

Basically Espirit is having 50% off STOREWIDE (which means EVERYTHING hor) for all Espirit staff's friends and relatives from now till 24 May at the Espirit Habourfront store ONLY.

Hi hi girls... What a conincidence!
We just went to the zoo this morning and got ourselves the Friends of the Zoo card, as it is $135 (got 10% discount due to Ikea card) for one year unlimited zoo entry for 2 adults and 3 kids but since we have only one kid, the lady said will extend to our helper OR 1 set of grandparents.
We had a great time watching the 2 polar bears get fed and a wild life show where they actually 'hid' phytons and what-not amongst the audience! Weather was warm but breezy so it was real nice, unfortunately had to leave abt 11+am (have not even covered 1/4 of the zoo!) as it started to pour...
Love to join you guys for the zoo but next week is tough, me moving house leh...btw <font color="ff0000">Cheekz</font>, where is the swing that Rae Ann was seating on? Didnt see that??
The sale info, <font color="ff0000">Buttons</font>, will seriously affect the relationship betw spouses. Oh and you miss out the MPH Book Sale and Food Fair at Expo next week.
Thanks for the dialect and Mandarin version of persimmons. As Brenda mentioned, your Chinese is indeed fei chang hao!

my GRAND plan is to come home every lunch hour to B-feed and check on baby and maid...
will do this till baby is 1 year old and then send baby to my MIL's place in Bedok...
Can't send them over now coz I still need to B-feed rae ann till she's at least 1 year old and my work place is nearer to my place than MIL's place...after that, i plan to wean her off breast and try to get her to take FM or worse case, drink FRESH MILK....
so still need to tahan another 3 mths to wean off B-feeding...

I was there leh, but must have missed it! So much for perfect eyesight, cant see the big things! Shld demand some sort of refund from my eye doctor...
Talking abt breastfeeding, I am down to like 2 or 3 times a day latch on, so shld be able to fully stop come June. When are you starting work again?

Hi Cheekz,
Hehe, I din read any of the shopaholic books!!!
But I am sure I am a shopaholic! I can buy even when I am extremely broke! I am definitely keeping fingers crossed that this is not genetic. And of all things, this shopaholic works at Raffles City Tower, which is right on top of Raffles City Shopping Centre! Bad bad bad.... No wonder my money disappears doubly fast!
Hey hey, you trying to wean ah? 3 weeks kinda short notice leh... You managed to get Rae Ann to feed from a bottle yet?
You are an amazing mom!!! Rushing home everyday to bf! Wow, how u gonna find time to makan?
