Pups, wow, envy! You put on so little, I'm in 2nd tri and also exceed your total weight gain. Haha. Same her I eat less choclate and snacks in this preg but gain weight more quickly. Hb say cos I'm old liao. And he say I'm unlikely to lose all like first preg.
I really don't wish it to be such. Vain Mummy here will start to exercise. ;P
Gemini, I normally borrow from Marine Parade, but occasionally from Bishan, tried Tao Payoh once and Pasir Ris once. All ok. But I don't like the dvd collection at Marine Parade. The big girl potty was from Tao Payoh, the sleepyhead book was from Pasir Ris...
Dor, you're right, the elderly at hm like to use the bb to compare with the kiddo. Which makes me mad, but then they jus need constant reminder. Been telling them but they still use him to tease her and told her that when bb arrive nobody will carry her, daddy, mummy will sayang didi cos he's a gd boy and she's so naughty. I was really furious. But my fil vy insensitive, every wk remind him still like this.
Pull-up
=======
Generally I don't like pull-up cos I feel they hold less. I remeber b4 Char was toilet train I use Mammy Poko for her and think I have to change it more often than the conventional drypers. After she's toilet train I only buy drypers pull-up for her to wear in just in case situation. And I tell her that is panty so she won't pee on it out of convenience. SO far it's usually dry on the few occasion that it get wet, it didn't fail me.
Adeline, I realise one thing abt childcare and school, when they know the kid is in diaper, they wouldn't really help to toilet train them. On CHar's first day of sch I observed that when the teacher bring the kids to toilet, they check who wears diaper, those who did, they did not really help them to toilet but give priority to those who dont. So the next day, I purposely don't wear diaper for Char to ensure that she wont deteriorate in her toilet habits.
