Hello daisybuttons and ilovebabies,
Yep, It's great to know my baby grew so much.... And nope, I didn't take any durians. I am just hungry all the time... Maybe ate too much. But I am afraid that the baby will come out too big leh. The measurements are that of a 25wks plus fetus, whereas I was only 23 weeks plus on Sat. Haiz, see first. Think I am full of contradictions - baby too small also worry.... too big also worry.
Wow, you guys had such a great shopping trip at Robinsons! ilovebabies, you bought the dual minielectric breast pump from Medela, is it? Saw the PIS one there too selling at $739. That is so ex!!! $200 plus sounds more reasonable for a breast pump (to me, at least...).
daisybuttons, the Nania car seat looks good! I was eyeing that one for a loooong time. It is convertible, is it? I think the instructions did mention that it is suitable for use from infant to toddler stage. So maybe you can try and see... then you need not carry baby in the car and can use the car seat.
Went to Mothercare sale this morning. Bought a pre-packed hospital bag that is on sale for $49 (UP$159). Inside the hospital bag got the following stuffs:
For mother:
1) 100ml nipple cream
2) 12 maternity pads
3) 50 breast pads
4) 1 travel toothbrush and toothpaste
5) 1 cotton flannel
For baby:
1) 2 pairs of scratch mitts
2) 1 cotton hat
3) 6 disposable nappies
4) 50 cotton wool balls
5) 24 baby wipes
6) 1 sleepsuit
7) 2 bodysuits
The bag also came with instructions as to what else to pack, which include disposable briefs, nightshirt, nursing bras, tissues, socks, camera and towel. It can also double up as a diaper bag after it outlived its use as a hospital bag, and has a wipe clean lining, a changing mat and 4 other compartments for nappy rash cream etc. Those interested can pop by Mothercare for a look. Thought it is quite handy.
