Shihui,

Jen,
I just bought 2 MIM padded seamless nursing bras @ the shop at TMC liao... This one is slightly cheaper than the one u wish to buy.
happy.gif
 
bobianah,

happy.gif


Shihui,
U r making me

sylk,
i very mountain one. Auto too smooth i scare. haaha sot hor.. during my 5th mth pregnant, i got into accident lor. so now abit phobia of driving. Even if drive also cant speed like last time liao. scare what if nid to E-brake then my tummy go bang the steering wheel liao.
Ya lor. Manual very troublesome esp traffic jam all this.& even shopping ctr. but i lazy one. If go Shopping, mostly hb drive i dun dare park multi car carpark cos shopping ctr sure hv to climb until high high then got parking slots one. then somemore the slot & the turning down corner are sooo narrow esp IMM parking. hehe
 
any1 bought any nursing tops at Mothers En Vogue? I went there to buy 2 nursing tops yesterday cos they having sales (less 33%) till 30 Nov.

Their designs are quite nice, can even wear if no more BF. Don't look like nursing wear at all...all cutting are quite fitting ones... The shop is at Delfi Orchard...
 
Hi Jen,
I think the latest renovated IMM carpark very good already. U should try the Novena shopping centre one... can see so many scratches along the two walls... must drive small small cars then can feel safe.... hah hah.

Ok, going out now. Catch up with u all later.
 
Jackie,
It's with biscuit...haha. when I had my first, my gynae asked if I had biscuit frequently, cos the bb is big... so I guess that's the thing lor, that's y when I know my bb is only 2.1kg at 35 weeks, I ate biscuit again, n now 3kg at 37 weeks.... not sure if it's really due to biscuit or last min growth spurt lor...
happy.gif


Sylk,

No lor, cos nearby got nothing to eat also and our lunch break is only 45 mins, so nobody willing to eat out... the menu is almost the same every week.... so for those who work here long enough, they will know what is nice what is not, but after sometimes, everything also not nice liao...
happy.gif
 
bobianah,
ya lor no stock leh...u refer to their website hor...mostly no stocks. that's why they sell cheaper now. I bought mine at TMC. For my size, the beige colour one left 1 pcs. So I bought 1 beige & 1 black lor... oh the multi-way one is velcro ah...ya lucky u bought 1...try try 1st...if good then buy more.
happy.gif


I bought nursing tops cos I thot if wear nursing bra with normal clothes, must lift up the shirt so high, exposing the tummy. Maybe I also 'sua ku', 2nd time mum still dunno how to BF. So I thot wear nursing tops with nursing wear, jus open 1 hole & can BF liao...tummy still got the nursing top inner fabric to 'cover'.
happy.gif
 
qwer
I went to MIM shop to try on a lot of bras and try how easy it is to remove with one hand before i bot. =P

I oso bot abt 4 nursing tops from there to standby... hmm...maybe this weekend go visit MEV to see their nursing top since on sale...
It is true, if plan to BF, better wear nursing tops, more discreet...other option is to wear botton front shirts...which i hope i can fit in again! else all my work shirts cannot wear!
sad.gif
 
bobianah,
U also think it's true ah? or maybe cos I not 'skillful' enough... I think we shld ask Vanessa, for her so expert in BF, I think any type of tops she wear, she will be able to BF easily.
happy.gif


I dunno how to do discreetly cos need lots of practise. So I thot juz buy a few nursing tops to wear lor...juz open the hole & pull down nursing bra can liao, hee hee...if outside jus sit face in (I see how other mothers BF in public, they dun sit face out) and then can BF liao. No need to find nursing rooms.

MIM is it diffcult to find the location hah? I see the place like so ulu leh...so I only bought at TMC shop since it sells some MIM's clothings.
 
Vanessa,
Oh, must be with biscuit ah? Let see how BB growth tml after gyane appt. Think durian is still be best to spurt BB 's growth
happy.gif


Qwer,
Thank u
happy.gif


bobianah,
I will be going down to MEV to see see look look...Dont think will get 1st cause also dont know wat size we will be after delivery.....
 
CF Chang,
Yes I bought MIM bras but at the shop at TMC, not at their store at Tat Ann Bldg. Nice or not ah....very basic lor...no pattern one. Nursing bra is juz padded or not padded. I think shld be easy to BF bah...cos I haven't tried BF yet, hee hee... Quite easy to open the front flap. Practise a few times sure easy liao.
happy.gif


Maybe jus buy 1 or 2 to standby 1st. If u find ok & good, can buy later.
 
Jackie,
U mean the bra size? U don't know what size will be after delivery? Initially I also worry. But the salesgal at TMC told me, now we buy, shld be quite ok liao. Cos the nursing bra has many hooks behind. Now when u buy bra, if u can hook to the 1st hook, and still hv abt 3 extra hooks allowance, shld be ok liao. Cup size try not to choose very fitted. I think shld be ok bah...
happy.gif
 
qwer,
I think nursing tops will help us to BF in public lor. Regular clothes oso shy to pull down or up and expose too much skin mah. I dun intend to hide when i BF if possible lor.
MIM is easy to find. I got my hb to drive there la... Only thing is, they only open selected days and selected Saturdays. http://www.ebizmoms.net/index.html

Chang
the nursing tops there are cheap and wide variety. The bras oso. Good thing abt buying at MIM is more choice and can try on...
Oh, when u buy the bra, try to get non-underwire ones.

Jackie,
no problem to buy a couple pieces of nursing tops now becos our torso size won't change dramatically, only the tummy area. Can oso choose the not-too-fitting type. It's only our breast size that might really change, so I didn't get those super fitting type la... material soft and stretchy can oredi. Dun buy the stiff material type. Of cos when i bot, i was in early 8th mth, so the tummy area is thight lor...heehee! but ok one la, cos by the time bb pop, tummy go down more oredi mah.
happy.gif
I wanted to stand by a couple of tops, cos if no tops how to go out to get more??
 
Jackie,
or u are referring to nursing tops ah? hee hee...I read too fast liao, paiseh. Oh the salesgal at MEV allowed me to try on leh... So I tried many nursing tops yesterday. But of course, try out the bust width only. Tummy big big sure can't fit now. All the materials are soft & stretchable type. She has a guideline as in what's your bust width now, then shld take what size lor. I bought 1 size S & 1 size M. Cos some cuttings the armhole there very tight. So I bought size M.
happy.gif
 
hmmm.. i still dun hav nursing wear leh.. muz hav at least one to stand by bah.. else when bring bb go see PD n bb demand feed, i really need to pull up my tshirt liao.. heheheheee~ :p
 
bobianah,
thanks!! oh not difficult to find MIM ah...think I'll go after my confinement.
happy.gif
Ya their nursing tops are more affordable. Those at MEV quite pricey. Only sale then I buy lor...

I also dun intend to hide if I can BF successfully.
happy.gif
Furthermore, I think after we give birth 1 mth plus, will be CNY liao. So we can wear our nursing tops & go CNY visiting with bb.
happy.gif
 
shihui
haha! alternative is to wear button front shirt lor... borrow ur hb's work shirt la.
happy.gif

I even read somewhere last time abt how to make your own nursing top. Take a big t-shirt, cut a vertical line in the middle abt the length of ur breast. Then take another patterned cloth, cut in a big square and sew it on the front covering the vertical opening...big enuff to cover ur chest area. Sew only the top half and put button on the lower left and rite corners so can snap open.

If got time ok la...but sounds like too much work to me.. haha!
happy.gif


ahhh...found the link http://web.winco.net/~sbcortlu/makeyourowntee.htm
 
Wah changed topic to nursing bra and tops liao...
I only bought too ultra-cheapo nursing bra from OG, 2 for $17.90 I think. I was thinking of just starting with that 1st during confinement and see how things go. Do we really need to buy nursing tops? I was just thinking those button front blouses can liao. I have a few looser ones which I think I should still be able to fit after delivery. Vanessa, any advice? Is nursing top really necessary?

Jackie
for durians, I just saw it last week at cold storage causeway point. Think carrefour and IMM giant should have also, cause everytime I go there, sure see durians one.

Gwen
Yah I also think you should go see your gynae abt your diarrhea. Keep yourself hydrated meanwhile.
 
qwer,
I am actually talking abt nursing top
happy.gif


qwer, bobianah,
My intention is to pop 1st than see how i cope with BF and body shape before getting nursing top. Dont want to waste $$$
happy.gif


I dont like big and loose type of clothings....Cause got big nei nei mah....Will make myself look FAT
lame.gif
 
jackie,
haha! I super determined to BF, so bot some to stand by. Anyway, nursing tops are not big and baggy at all.
happy.gif
They are quite nice...like regular clothes. U can go MEV website to see.

Just came back from Mustafa..first time there and wow..that place really have everything! Prices are quite cheap too..just that there is no shopping experience there..everything is so messy and it smells kind of weird..

Carrerfour no durian meh? Aiyo..I still thinking of going there to buy tonight..got craving er..
 
Dey,
when u buy things in Mustafa, must always check the expiry date especially food. there often sell expired items.
i frequent there alot to exchange money.
 
Hi all

i've been reading more than i contribute (hope u all dun mind).

Hi bloom/vanessa
tks for your encouragement. yeah,really wish i succeed this time round in breastfeeding. keeping my finger crossed!

Hi jackie

happy.gif
 
MBB
Oops, carrefour no more durian liao? Hee... cos I always seem to hear the guy shout "Buy 2 get 5 free!".... Always tell hubby sounds ridiculous... where got this type of deal one.. :p

Jackie, Dey,
I got craving for durian hubby also dun let me eat. He say my girl girl quite big liao, wait she become too big... sigh there goes my durian
sad.gif

dey,
Kekeke, so long as somone MIA hor we will think she pop liao...MBB is right about the expiry date of the food sold in Mustafa. Have to be careful.
 
Dora,

happy.gif
 
JKJT,
Maybe u shld try durian......It a proven fruit that help in BB weight sprut
happy.gif


Dora,
How many weeks r u and wat's BB weight??? Did gyane mention anything abt yr BB size?
 
MBB,
We just went to take a look only..didn't manage to buy anything..but dun think i wld go there to buy food..dun look fresh to me leh..moreover with the smell leh.. no appetite liao...

Dora,
If u go to carrerfour after 9pm hor, can further bargain with the durian seller.. sometimes can get quite good deals...
 
Hi Ladies,

just walk away awhile n so much to catch up....

Nursing Top ah.... hmm... ke you ke wu lor... but hor advise for those thinking of front button blouse.... u will tends to expose more with front button blouse, cos u r not only showing ur nipple, but will be able to show the whole nei nei, cos u need to open the button from the 1st to the one below ur chest in order to pull it to the side to open ur bra and latch the bb on..... Unless u use a towel to cover, else, personally, I feel it's more expose.... Nursing top is good to help ur bf in public more confidentally.... Personally I like those with opening in front rather than the flip open one, cos depends on the materials, sometimes when u flip, instead of only the front pce comes up, the 2nd pc also come up, so end up u will need more hand to pull the 2nd pc down while u pull up the 1st pc.... personal experience lah....

I also like some of the MIM clothing, MEV r very very nice, but very ex... since there's sale, mayb ask hb to bring me there this weekend... I've been eyeing on some of the clothing...hmm, think they can take order online rite?

JKJT, Jackie,
Dunno leh, mayb ur milo not thick enough..
biggrin.gif
.... milo always works for me
happy.gif
 
Jackie,
Ya..now is the crucial period..everyone MIA could hv the possibility of popping..
589027.gif


Bobianah,
MEV nursing top very nice leh.. but i buy also no use..i shy to bf in public leh...
 
the extra 3% needs to give reasons?? I've got a very good reason to deserve the extra 3% related to no.3.... it's my no.3 children...
biggrin.gif
 

Jackie,
thick thick milo is heaty. dun drink everyday. must eat with sor da biscuit. those square square one....rite, Vanessa???
