Hey Mummies who are still breastfeeding and using Pigeon Breast Pad. Good bargain from Robinsons. They are selling at $8 for a box of 36 + 6 pcs and on top of that you get to enjoy 20% discount. If you have the $5 coupon, you can also use it and on top of that you still have the 5% robinsons card discount. Really good bargain. Go grab it before they are all gone

 

[qianhui]

Bao Yin Dan from EYS..

Machiam like all-in-one medicine for BB.. supposed to helps when ==> BB is being frightened, BB is teething, BB heaty, to sleep better, etc..

We bought that for him to eat since Ace was 2 wks old.. seems to help sometimes.. but I never really go and see if it REALLY works or not. So long no harm can liao.

Afcai,

Erh, cannot help lah, coz I'm to scared of cockroaches. Somemore I stay at 1st floor, at night when I go by my back door, will have cockroaches outside. They like to come out at nite after 9pm, then disappear in the morning..

Cockroaches are scary things.. They can fly and charge towards you. Esp when I use baygone on them, they are very revengeful leh..

Jen/Bloom/Calynn,

Think for everyone got Angel and Devil in them..

My hubby also sometimes Angel and sometimes Devil.
Esp when we are on certain topic like his work or his family side, he's a damn damn devil.
He can even pissed me so much that I got violent and hit or scratch him. Happened once or twice liao.

Think everyone is the same same bah..

 

[isishui]

aiya... going to robinson tonight n i actually forgot my voucher!!!!!! hai~~ shd i go back to take? sure get scolding fr hb liao...

Jen, Bloom, calynn, qianhui,
i think me sama sama too.. he can be a very gd guy.. caring to the family n me.. but hor, at times when we quarrel, it juz feel yucky lor... we oso quarrel till very jialet one.. i cry lot lot.. he scream loud loud.. everyone upstairs downstairs can hear us sure... but hor, aft we recover hor, life seems okie again... sometimes really afraid tt we will reach a limit and say bye bye to each other...

Jen,
bao yin dan is some kind of medicated powder.. supposed to calm down bb, improve sleep etc... juz need to mix abit in the milk or rub abit on the gums.. seems gd to PH...

 

[och]

alabone,
jared has ur eyes, nat dun, can tell straightaway.

jen,
still not well? r u hving stomach flu? ur socks r waiting for u to collect tonight.

bloom, jen,
dun pass the emotional baggage to ur daughters. it's really unhealthy n unfair to them. find a counsellor, give urself n the marriage a time out, whatever it is, dun be so saddled with the baggage that the onli way out u see is to dump it all on ur kids. their shoulders r too small to carry the load.

shihui best fren,
i want to go robinsons too. how come i cannot go anywhere to shop after work??

when do u want the belt that might not fit?

 

[jennytansc]

och,
tonight no guarantee can come anot liao leh. hubby is down with fever lor. actually thot he is gg to see Dr at Bt batok then can go take from u. but now he aldy see camp MO & got MC to stay at home aldy.

as for my crazy hubby, i knw is unfair for bb to shoulder my burden for me. but maybe it could be just my "qi hua" lor. my gal soo small & young to knw all this & all i had suffered mah also.

SH,
eat the powder liao PH realli can slp well ar? cos this few nights dunno why Selinna slp until less than 30mins will wakeup wailing loudly. dunno isit got frightened at my MIL hse & come back slp until got nightmare lidat. aiyooo too bad JP dun hv EYS leh. oni west mall hv, else JE.

 

[och]

jen,
nvm lah, can come anytime lor. u let me know ahead of time can liao.

i know u r saying qi hua lah, but must remind u mah. else selina very poor thing leh.

 

[isishui]

och,
how come? can take leave fr home for 1 night?

jen,
yup.. so far so gd.. he seems to like the powder.. if rub on his gum, he smile leh... when u going to collect fr och? i going tml night ard 8.30pm.. can pass one tube to u try try...

 

[isishui]

jen,
sometimes when i quarrel with hb hor, the person i worried most is PH.. he seems to sense it lor.. coz he will become really quiet when we quarrel.. no sound at all.. juz quiet quiet lie there... aft we cool down, he will get cranky.. dunnoe isit bcoz he very wei3 qu1.. aiyo... sim tia when he lidat...

den will start telling myself tt for my son, i muz try to control..... although tt's almost impossible..

 

[vaness81]

JLim,
Thanks for the inform...I need the breast pad now!!

Shihui,
U going tonite? Me no chance to go..though I got the discount coupon...wonder by Sat if there's still got stock for me.....

 

[coolman]

hi shihui,

same here.. there is once hub n i quarrel in the car. jav sit quietly in his car seat... no sound at all. he kinda of sense tat his papa n mama quarrelling. veri funni. i was shouting at my hub one moment n another moment i was telling my hub "hey u notice our son veri quiet". After we calm down, we will joking abt doing fake quarrel when jav start cranky in his car seat. keke.. i tell myself i must "ren".. never quarrel infront of jav.. i also warn my hub abt it..

 

[jennytansc]

Van & SH,
ur ss is power until now still dipping ar? so envy leh. i never have that ever since i return back to work leh. I have no more breast pad else can give to u all.

SH,
its ok thanks. i can get it from EYS when i pass by JE lor.

och,
If i am going, then i will SMS be4fore gg. of cos wont pop up just lidat at ur doorstep. hehehe. But dunno when then can get from u lar.

 

[bloom75]

jen, resend the invitation again liao... the stupid thing for me is that i want another child..cos i dunwan kate to grow up lonely.... so stupid right... adding on to my own misery... so urs is a nerd too... seems that they are actually socially indept (sp?).

Calynn...just joking har..u should vent ur anger on ur hb more often to compensate for the times our hbs vent their anger on the rest of us poor mommies...i have to agree that it will be better if both parties separate and be happier on their own..but if divorce he might get custody of the child cos he always pretend to be very nice in front of other pp..and i dunwana lose kate...

QH , is the bao yin dan like jing feng shan? cos jing feng shan also like everything also can... thats why that tiem when i choose flat my mom tell me dont buy first floor cos all the garden creatures will come in ..ahhaha...luckily she warn me beforehand i wish i can scartch him without him retaliating.btu i suspect tat he will beat me up if i ever do that...

shihui..sigh..another poor mommy... like very stupid loh..why the wife msut always lun..why the wife must think dont fight back cos of the bb..but the hb never think of it... there are a few times when he shout until kate will wake up crying and he still dont care... why its always the women that have to suffer?

och, he refuse to go counselling..he said 'married already, why need counselling'.

 

[eppie]

Jen, your JP is referg to Jurong Point is it ?
if u r, there is a EYS @ Jurong point @ basement 1 near to Liberty.

 

[coolman]

hi gals,

i hav captured happy moments n cranky moments of javier

playing wif his pooh bear frienz..

staring at mummy when his pooh bear frienz is snatch away..

acting pitifully... wanna ppl to bao bao

crying when mummy still ignoring him

 

[isishui]

bloom,
i think i pity hb more.. coz i'm usually the unreasonable one... but hor, sometimes hb do things tt irritate me.. so i unhappy den he oso unhappy den quarrel liao...

serene,
haha... bb very interesting hor.. even if we dun quarrel loud loud.. juz unhappy mood, bb can sense it too....

 

[coolman]

bloom,
not really ur hub will get custody of ur gal..
normally women will b more like to get custody of their children.. condition: financially stable(got a job), no having affairs outside..

there was once i quarrel wif my hub, i told him if we were to divorce, he must not fight wif mi my boi custody. haha.. n he agree.. keke.. even say he is willing to giv "shan yang fei" to financially support my boi. hehe..

 

[starluster]

mummies,
the urine culture showed that my gal got very very bad case of UTI. was given high dose of antibiotics. PD says if her fever & frequent chills doesnt improve, need to immediately go to KKH. thank God she is better today. but still need to monitor, and bring back to PD this Friday.

even after this bout of infection is cleared, still need to be hospitalized to do ultrasound (to check kidney n bladder) and vsug (put a catheter in and inject a dye to check her urine flow). very sim tia for her to go thru that, but it's better to find out the root cause and have proper early treatment if required.

she's very clingy these few days (cannot leave her sight) and oso wanna be carried most of the time.. giving her the medicine is really challenging coz she will purposely try to vomit it out, even after she swallowed. but occasionally when her fever subside she can still smile smile.. that gives us a big relief.

very sorry but i think i will hold the bookspree first, really no mood to follow up. any mummies who wanna take over, pls do so. else, i will follow up at a later date. sorry.

 

[calynn]

Bloom,
hiayo, even though i'm the one scolding him, also frustrating. but hor, from my point of view (which is the one scolding all the time!!!) i also dun feel good. I also dunno y I keep snapping at him. Need some time to figure tat out i guess.

starluster,
sounds bad, hope she recovers fast. it's good to hear that she's better today.

you take care and dun stress yourself out.

 

[och]

star,
oh dear, oh dear, keep us updated of how sophia is ok? bb r like that, when they hv to go thru pain, always more clingy. madeleine is also very clingy these days. u take good care of urself also, else u cannot take care of her leh. dun bother abt the book spree lah.

 

[bloom75]

shihui, calynn..ahahah... yes, men can be very very irritating sometimes right

serene..lucky u..i know my case will not be the same cos kate is the only grandchild on hb's side of the family...

starluster..oh no... poor sophia.... but luckily the doc discover in time..thats why cleaning their private parts esp after poo poo must be very cautious... me also very scared of UTI cos my colleague's bb gal used to get it too and she told me the horror story....

 

[dogggies]

Bloom, Jen,
Dont let yr hubby bully u k. Otherwise they will take for granted that everything is fine. Be strong for yr bb.

Serene,

Starluster,
Oh no, Sophia kana UTI. Poor ger, hope she 5 5 recover. Dont bother abt the book BP. Rest whenever u can and take good care of yrself.

[kimi]

bloom, jen,
bbs even at this age ca sense one. so pls never ever quarrel in front o them or talk bad bt ur hubbies in front o them. scared they might get traumatised n maybe scarred 4 life.

bloom,
wah. ur hubby really one kind. i oso dunno wat 2 say. u wanna haf no. 2? dun do it 4 e sake o it lah. if there's no love b/w u n hubby liao then no pt haf no. 2.

ladies,
mandy has learnt a new game this days. she'd shake her head like an indian, vigorously, grinning at e same time. then i'd put out my hand n say 'STOP' n she'd stop, just 2 start shaking again.... v funny but nt during semi-solid time...
she's oso learnt how 2 'muack' n yest she kept smiling at me n go 'muack muack muack'. awww...

 

[ruffy_happy]

 

[momtb]

Hi mummies
Been so busy trying to sort out my hse for the move...no chance to read all posts.

Bloom
Aiyo...I still remember last time u do confinement so chaam rite. Ur hb ask u 2 drink plain water n wont even make the longan red date drink 4 u rite. Hmmm...if I were u n I know things r not going to improve n will always quarrel one hoh I wld leave him liao cos I wun want my ger to grow up in such environ. Sure will affect their emotional stability one. Wat will ur ger learn...tat it's ok for men to treat women like tat. No way.

Kimi
Mandy so cute...c who say she is so stone

Mummies

[Mbb2]

(info provided by Berry. she cant log in).

Starluster,
hope Sophia 55 recover. dun bother abt the book spree lah.

 

[qsg]

Mummies, back to work again so hardly able to find time to post. Now quite worried after 9 days, Evee still pui pui her cereal...dunno how leh..never had this problem with my elder gal...any of your bbs take more than 1 week to accept the cereal? I am using heinz...dunno if different brand of cereal will make any difference.

Mbb, isetan sale ah??nursery dept how much discount? clothes leh? Went to both robinsons and Tangs, bot mostly bb stuff as usual. Nowadays prority always go to nursery and kids dept. Last year the motherhood exhibition quite pathetic..very few booths mostly insurance and milk powder to think i took leave to go hopefully this year better...

Ruffy, what to use to make those posters you make for Roy?

 

[vaness81]

Mummies,
Need to VENT!!! Reyna doesn't sleep!!! I just let her cry it out just now, she is typically only sleeping at nite and the rest of the time is only cat nap in my arm, the moment I put her on the bed, she woke up. Sometimes, even when I carry her to sleep, she will only sleep awhile and wake up. Sometimes she looked very tired, but simply refuse to sleep!!

 

[och]

hi,
posting for stephanie. baby lucas:

 

[och]

eh.. the collage was done by stephanie, not by me hor.

 

[linette]

Hi all,

Wow, so many postings - I could only scan through for cute baby photos!

Och,
The collage you made for all the babies who do not want to drink water is simply HILARIOUS!!! I was laughing my head off at the excuses. Eh, you very creative at coming up with excuses eh!! OK, I will try to send some photos to you to fit the June/July themes...like very hard leh...cos my girl is far from sitting by herself, keke.

Bloom/Jen,
My sympathies with you. Like och, I also advocate not letting your lil daughters know about the tensions in your marriage. Perhaps you can chat more with your hubbies about these problems? Open up channels of communications?

To all the mommies who posted photos, wahhhhhh, all the babies getting so cute and chubby these days!

Alabone,
Nat looks sooo girl girl, sure can differentiate from Jared la!! So, when's the next outing? 26 or 31 May?

Am posting some photos I took in Sentosa with Nicole and Annette fooling around!

 

[linette]

My Annette is also beginning to look more boyish. I tell you, out of 10 people who guessed her gender, 7 guessed she is a boy!!!!! Must be her few little strands of hair

 

[momtb]

Hi Mummies
I hv $500 worth of Aussino vouchers but i hv nothing to buy fr there. Anyone interested, will let u hv it at 20% discount.

 

[dogggies]

Ruffbear,
Roy look so cool in the shade, really a dude man

CF,
Phlison is sooooo handsome.....BTW, Jovey have the same star shape teething cloth leh

stephanie,
Love Lucas smile and his eye so expressive. Next time will have long q of GF lor

Linette,
Annette really look like Nicole leh. Dont worry abt her being mistaken as a boi boi. Give her some time and she will be "Dao Mei Nu" like the jie jie

Lil,
Very good offer

...Any condition attached with the vouchers?

 

[bloom75]

jackie..sigh..easier said than done...u know..its like encountering some foreign talent in foodcourt... u keep quiet that person also rant, u make noise that person also rant

choo.. been married for more than 3 years liao..thats why i always tell hb last time that if i am lucky, kate would have been my 2nd child...

ruffy, who are the 2 other bbs? canot recog leh...

kimi.... i didn't initiate those quarrels what.. u also cannot expect me the moment he lost his temper than i keep quiet right..i wont be sending the right mesg (read : submissive) to her too. i am not having no 2 for him.. aahhaha..mandy very cute leh..always got funny action one... where did she learn them from? not tv right? cos i rem u said that u dont let her watch tv...

Lil...wahh..u got very good memory.... but if i were to leave then, i tell u , alot of pp will call me unfit mother etc.... cos u know lah..pp will always say that 'oh he is still getting used to fatherhood' blah blah blah

mbb...argh!!!!! 10% disct!!!! argh!!!!!!!!

QSG, could it be that evee is not ready for solid food yet? or the texture is too 'solid' for her?

Vanessa, I think nowadays bb so kapo that they refuse to sleep during daytime leh..kate too... during weekend daytime she will die die refuse to sleep... unless at home no one (read : hb not around to disturb her) and very quiet, and draw all curtains and she is very very very tired then maybe she sleep for half an hour... thats why my weekends always all tied up..u lagi worse..still u have to face this everyday...

och/stepanie, lucas' eyes very bright leh!

Linette, thanks, but again easier said than done lah... got tv... he wont wana talk... hehhe... u make it sound like anette and nicole got affair (fooling around)..so no prob wth annette sleeping in a strange room/bed?

Today on half day MC again..cos not feeling well..and sore eyes have not recover yet..sian.. never have so many sick symptoms before in my life....

 

[och]

linette,
thanks for the compliments. hee, that one was a draft. the confirmed one i sent to kimi to update blog liao. smaller version below, think it's a bit too small to see clearly.

bloom,
hope ur eyes get better. i also find myself coming down ill more often nowadays, think it is the stress of looking after bb. i thot the other bb is handsome philson?

 

[kuchi]

hello all

[linette]

Jackie,
Thanks for the compliments...hope so lor...waiting for her hair to grow more

Bloom,
Heh, the 2 sisters love each other to bits! Nicole always insists that her lil sis must be awake whenever she is back from school. Yes, Annette was very at ease in Sentosa hotel's bed. Slept through, man! But I suspect it's a case of "have breast will travel" keke.

Och,
Aiyoooo, big collage so cute so cute - but can't see the words...am going to pop by our blog to check it out. Aiya, wasted no time to send you my Annette's photos for this collage. Will try to make it the next time round!

Nana,
Eh, remember you are my "new mummy" partner in any gathering hor!!!

 

[ruffy_happy]

Morning mummies,
Bloom,
Yesterday only posted pic of Roy and philson leh... u can't recognise both eh keke

QSG,
I used the free software templates at FLICKR.

OCH,
Nice collage.. K I go to the blog to take a look at the bigger version.

 

[calynn]

Och...

I like the round version more!!!!!!!

 

[bloom75]

och, can email the original softcopy of the collage to me at [email protected]? will try to upload the original to the dec06 blog rather than this copy.... will try to do it this weekend...me had been so lazy recently i rem got 2 bbs abit caucasian look one..i think the other one is ethan...

nana, thanks for ur concern...

linette..ahaha..good for u that annette loves mommy's 'cushion'

ruffy, i remember roy lah... but canot rem the other bb cos like wat i told och, there is another bb that is angmo look one

its finally friday!

 

[dogggies]

Bloom,
Hmmmm, sound quite bad hor.....What can i say???? Hopefully this forum is a good venue for you to rant

Och,
Yr collage is so fun and creative. Well done n thumb up

 

[qsg]

Bloom, dun think its the texture of the cereal as i tried both watery and slight creamy texture. Think unlikely she is not ready for solid food as in fact she is the oldest bb here. I read that if introduce solids too late also not good that's why i still have to persist.

 

[momtb]

Jackie
Hb going to collect vouchers tonite. Can confirm the conditions n denominations after I get them. Also dun hv to buy all if u dun ned so much. I think shd be able to use even during sale gua so got extra 20% off 4 u

Bloom
Haiyo...who cares what pple tink. Must do wat is best 4 u n ur ger. A leopard doesn't change its spots. I know bcos my bro in same situation as u, but his case it's his wife who is crazy. Just last week he beat my bro again in front of his kids. This time he cannot tahan already so he n his son moved back to my parents place. He say he cannot lun liao cos tat's his wife's charater n she wun change one. So poor thing, we always ask him to lun for his kids' sake. We spoke to the boy, he said he tried to stop his mummy but she wont listen. Happened a few times liao...n everytime they quarrel, she beat my bro (chiak cha boh), then the kids huddle together n cry. Then when she teach the boy to study, she often gets frustrated n will beat him upside down. Anything she can grab she will use to hit him. Last time she told me she used his abacus to beat him some more. Shen ching bing woman.

QSG
I also tried giving my boy Heinz rice cereal for bb's fr 4 mths. He also dun like will pui out n if I try to give him some more he will cry. Then I also try to put it in his milk n he also wun drink. Think he doesn't like the taste. My boy is only 4 mths so I can't try anything else but if ur ger is already close to 6mths liao then can try other types of cereal leh. Might b the taste she doesn't like. I try cereal cos at one point he hardly drank any milk n when he c us eat his mouth also mimic us chewing, n his toungue will lick lick his lips.

Greedy boy. Brot him to c PD, PD say some bb ready for solids earlier, say we can only try rice cereal. But dun work, so now he is only drinking milk.

 

[qsg]

Lil, Evee is more than 6 months already. Hesitating whether to try other brands of cereals as it seems the other brands contain cow's milk and Evee has got quite a bad case of ezcema. Her milk intake is also quite little.

 

[och]

nana,
what size is ur screen? i save to appropriate size for u, easier to see.

linette,

send send send.

[email protected].

calynn,

i also think that one has a nice layout, but then i will lose the story leh.

bloom,
thanks for offering to help! u should take a good rest lah, sore eyes leh. i sent to kimi yesterday n she posted in the blog liao.

lil,
ur bro in an abusive relationship, must get out asap! abusive pple dun change easily so there will be no end to the abuses on him n his kids. ur poor nephew, must sayang him n let him know that not all marriages r like this.
