(2006/09) SEPTEMBER 2006 MTB

hi, i read the blogs by E-Ling & BlessedMommy, both are super super pretty mamas! :)

Can i ask mummies here, anyone can advise for breast pump which is a better choice: Medela PIS vs Ameda Lactaline? I'm currently using a second hand Pigeon pump, but its not gd, so i thinking of buying a pump. PIS is more ex, whereas Ameda is cheaper.
 


hello mommies, thks for all the compliments.

emma
who is renee lau??

i love babies
feel sad for ur colleague. hope he not married / with children. really not worth to die cos of work or even any reason.

DG
im a lazy mom i dun exercise at all. where got time?? i stick to 2 meals a day low carb diet but now bf-ing so no dieting for me thats why still so fat :p

i understand what u mean when u feel like quitting bf cos not enuf time with marcus. i had that thought in my second mth of bf esp aft mom went back. i was so busy with the children not to mention i gotta cook etc... but i feel not fair to johannah cos its a lame excuse to quit. but now seeing her so chubby n thriving on my milk i feel encouraged. n i must say it does get easier with time. maybe train ur maid to learn to play with marcus while u express/nurse?

michelle
ethan got so much hair!! my gal hair also drop a lil. no worries, its normal. in any case ur ethan can afford to, his hair so thick haha.. n he does look gd in pink. my hubby told me pink is in after that spore idol contestant wore one (joachim). just the other day hubby bought a pink polo t for my boy!!
 
yes yes e-ling looks like reis, esp with her sharp pointed chin n long hair.

aiyoh me not fair leh. im actually quite tanned n im not that`slim hor, still trying to gain back my pre preg weight. thats y u never find my full body photos cos i bottom heavy haaha...
 
i love babies
oh yes i went to ur blog last nite. wanna put my comment but im not registered. ur rachel look so pretty in the recent photo. the one aft the feed.
 
e-ling, so "ni wo" is right.

no such thing as
"yi wo" then?

lasagne very easy to make. it takes me 25min max to make a big pan of 8 portions, then it is off to oven to cook. For pasta, I often make lots of tomato based sauce, eat some and freeze the rest. During weekday lunch, if not free to cook, just boil pasta, then thaw and heat up the pasta sauce and i get yummy, nutritious pasta within minutes.

can eat vongole during bf. but not advisable to freeze wine-based sauces, though u can freeze stews cooked with wine.

blessedmommy, don't worry abt bb getting the alcohol. once cooked, the alcohol content is gone.

michelle, thanks for the info.

BF
shall continue for as long as i can lah.
happy.gif
thanks mummies for encouragement. anyone exercising while bf?

blessedmommy, how long did u bf your 3 boys for?
when did u start becoming sahm?

ilovebabies, let me guess.. is your company IBM or Federal Express?
 
blessedmommy

wah! ilovebabies, u're right! blessedmommy does look like her! so pretty
happy.gif


blessedmommy,
can i join the bottom heavy club? aiyo, gravity really brings everything down huh? #@$%#$**!!

dg,
i started going to the gym 6 wks after giving birth. i wish i could go more often, but now i only go once a wk, on Sundays when my hb can take care of bb while i'm gone. unfortunately, my weight loss is non-existent!! pui! think cos i still eat well. bfg makes me so hungry!!

zzprincess,
i have the ameda and so far so good.
happy.gif
i bought that in the end coz i read that it performs as well as the PIS but is half the price and weight. it's also got some hygiene system, where there's no way the milk can flow back into the rubber tubes. (difficult to sterilise) if u do get it, i know motherswork is selling it for $350 with free lilypadz. check momsinmind too, they did have $290 promo once, with free lilypadz. or today at robinsons, 20% off for cardmembers. the pump could be eligible for the disc! dunno, must check
happy.gif
 
lol.. joon.. u are damn farni... esp when u "pui!!" lol.. pengz... my weightloss has also been non-existant... sigh.. but i bot a bicycle.. will cycle to sch once sch reopens.. hope that will help lahz.. hehe.. i did when i cycled to sch like 3 yrs ago.. nice and power thighs!!! woo hoo!!!
 
michelle,
that photo of "Ethan and His Teats" was so funny! I burst out laughing... sorry ah, i know u spent a lot of money, shouldn't be laughing... :p but he's got this cheeky look on his face, like he's saying "Look what I made Mummy and Daddy buy!" The ones u didn't open, sell on the forum la! U will get buyers, that's for sure. I sold some NUK teats that I didn't open. Just sell a little lower than what u bought and pple will definitely want it.

happy.gif
 
aiyoh emma u r another very chio mommy! my goodess. how come all the mommies here so pretty one hah? and all so young some more. now i feel like grandmother liao! anyway i read soem of your older blogs. reminds me of myself when i was in my younger days (uni days lah) cos i was also 1 very depressed gal :p last time no such thing as blogging yet so only got diary to write into ;)

joon
u so disciplined still got go gym to work out! i hv a exercise bike sitting in my livin room n i hv yet to get on it. i think i better start today leh! how much more wt do u have to lose? i got another 10kg man... n i oso feel hungry all the time so how to lose weight?!?

DG
were u the one saying gerber bags cannot store a big amt inside? i oso fill it up above the marking one lah. usually at 200ml and above. then after thatn just squeeze out as much air as possible n freeze it. think its ok rite? i dun even measure how much i freeze in each bag most of the times. is it really necessary to put in such a preise amt? i tot when need to use then just thaw it n use as much as u need rite. too much then split into 2 feeds... too little then add in fresh EBM? cant like dat or not?
 
anyone w big boobs, and tried lilypadz w/o bra? will breasts sag?


i have a medela mini electric single now. should i buy Ameda Lactaline or Medela mini electric double ($299)? don't want to pay for PIS though. anyone can advise?
 
michelle... even if i was pretty.. that was then... now that i still have like 20kgs to lose.... sigh.. how can be pretty??? pengz... so i reminded u of urself.. hehe.. i was quite depressed hor.. sigh.. dunno y... sometimes i will still have negative thoughts now... but much less alr..
happy.gif


DG.. so u have big boobies huh.. hehehehe... lol.. cheeky me.. notti me...
 
michelle,
i didn't say cannot hold big amount. just worried it may burst at sides once it solidifies.
i will store max 200ml.

not necc to write precisely but i do. personal preference. Me control freak and perfectionist lah! LOL!
 
emma
yes i too hv some negative thoughts now and then oso but also much less oredi lah
happy.gif
i guess with the baby it makes everything so much more worthwhile rite? :D

DG
oops sorry. misread ur post. anyway so far the bag hasnt burst lah. i dun think the gerber plastic will burst one rite cos it feels like its stretchable anyway so if not enuf space it'll just expand to accomodate the stuff inside? the avent liners are different tho cos the plasti they use there not stretchable one.

C cup oredi u still say not big?? i now only B leh boring...
 
wah, e-ling, blessedmommy, emma,
u gals can model for motherhood magazine liow!

the $14 nepia offer is fr the website one or call the nepia co directly? cos when i call them directly last mth they charge me $15 per pack leh

and the price is the same for all sizes is it? or M size will cost more?
 
<font color="0000ff">domesticgoddess</font>,
me ordered lilypadz but haven't received yet. Anyway, can't try and let u know also.. cos I dun hv big boobs! kekek...
happy.gif
 
hi michelle,

i ordered my nepia (3S, 1M) last fri and was delivered to me yesterday. price was at $14 per pack. i called up their hotline to order.
 
<font color="0000ff">michelle</font>,
the $14 offer is by the Nepia co., tel: 62262650. Maybe the offer is for Nov only? Price is same for S and M. Not sure abt the other sizes cos didn't ask.
happy.gif
 
michelle,
btw, i read in the forum that $14/pk is this month's promo price.
so if you ordered last mth, its still at their usual price of $15/pk
 
hi <font color="0000ff">phoebe</font>, hv fun bfg in public w the nursing cover! i bought the pinkswirls, what abt u? tot of getting the white one but luckily did not coz it's not pure white, it's actually a bit linen brown color, not nice.
 
hmm... can someone explain something to me? Seems like the older generation (i.e. my mum and MIL) has this 'bantang' thing abt not talking abt baby in front of baby... eg. I would ask them if my girl has grown bigger/fatter since the last time they saw her, or I would comment that baby (when she was younger) poos a lot after every feed, and they would go "shh!! don't let baby hear u!" or "Don't say anymore.. itz bantang.."

Really puzzling to me loh... Is there anything wrong if baby really does hear and understand?? Anyone can enlighten me abt this old wives' tale??

i also realised my hair is dropping more than usual too.

When I was 5mths pregnant, my hair loss was terrible. Even my gynae was surprised. He then prescribed another multivit supplement for me and it stop. I am going to take that multivit again this time round.

dun be humble .. u have pretty big eyes. come to think of it, Enzo doesnt resemble u ... he look like ur hubby ?

puppylove

oops ! it slipped off my mind to try M size ! sorry !!

u mean the promo at dignus.com ? oh no better order today. shld we still order S size ah ?? aiyah maybe I try out M tonite first then decide.
 
i just called nepia to order and they said the promo will end at the end of this mth - tat's tmr rite? i oso upgrade to M size liao cos my boy is 6kg oredi n i can see the red marks on his thighs when i use the S size

they will deliver it next tue... think their biz nowadays very gd because of us! hee. cos the last time i called to order they can deliver it the very next day

the older gen believe bb are pantang. i try not to be. So I am quite open abt it .. like ppl will say "oh ur bb v cute and quiet" ... i just smile ... it's a compliment mah ...
 
<font color="0000ff">ilovebabies</font>,
heheh, it's ok! I've placed order liow. Will continue 3 more packs of S b4 switching to M. As <font color="0000ff">blessedmommy</font> said, M is for above 6kg, so just estimate when ur bb will reach 6kg to calculate how many S u need loh. That's what I did
happy.gif


The promo is not the dignus website.. it's the Nepia co.: Tel: 62262650 (haha, me promoting for them for free!!)
 
emma,
wow! ur hair so long?? that means u are the kind with a lot of patience! hee hee...

michelle,
small boobs ok mah! becoz of BFg, i have graduated to a B-cup... (before preg, was AA cup, wah piang! the triumph lady recommended beedees bra to me *faint!*) now, i miss my flat chest... *sighhhh*...

DG,
sorry, i also cannot tell u whether the boobies will sag or not... me only B cup... but so far, i love my lilypadz! but careful, don't wipe them too much... my 1st pair is not so sticky anymore coz i kept cleaning it :p now using my 2nd pair of lilypadz!
 


<font color="0000ff">ilovebabies</font>,
har... i wonder how this pantang belief started!!

actually hor, weight is only an estimate for diaper size lah... a bb less than 6kg may still need M cos got fat thighs mah!!
happy.gif
oops, dun let bb hear that!! haha..
