true also , but i wld prefer to pay high tax coz it means pay is high ! if u think Spore tax is high , those ctries wif pension scheme will make ur heart bleed faster . although they hv lotsa of freebies like free education / healthcare etc . but i think Spore is not so bad ...

Naps and Outings
Yes, Jesse does that all the time...but I'm getting better at waking him up.
Weight
I'm only down 5KG from my pregnancy weight! Haha. I have a long long way to go...
And just a few weeks ago, at a wedding dinner, the person next to me (stranger) asked me, "oh when are you due?" His wife is pregnant. Erm...I said, "my baby came out already...one year ago..." (It was exactly Jesse's birthday that day)
Taxes
What's the difference in relief for the Father (with non-working mother) if there's a second child?

Hello mummies.
Mia for awhile cos had to undergo emergency op to extract 2 wisdom teeth on the left. Concussed for quite awhile... Taking the opportunity to lose weight since i can hardly drink the porridge. Chewing makes the bleeding worse so can only drink my food...
AUgleo,
Can put me on the wait list for the JG class? Thanks...

actually i find that it's quite tough to lose weight now. my tummy is getting more flabby by the day! was much slimmer when i was breast feeding. the funny thing is: my hubby actually thinks that i was much slimmer then than b4 i was pregnant! i think so too. but i've put on quite alot of weight since i stop BF. i m 55 kg (it doesn't help that i'm short) 3 wks ago and my pants and skirts keep getting tighter! i had to buy new working skirts and juz bot a pair of new jeans today. in fact now my upper body looks shorter now coz i've to pull my skirt up to cover my tummy so the skirt's waistline is sitting right above my waist! now i know why those old uncles wear their pants so high up - it's coz they are trying to hide their bellies too!
and juz today, i was having tea with my fren (whom i've not seen since CNY) at toast box and i ordered milo dinosaur (it's actually for another fren) and kaya toast (for myself) and when he saw the food, he asked me: "er, you don't think you've put on enuff weight ah?" and juz a few weeks ago, when i had a meeting with some dept head, he asked me if i was pregnant!!! i told him i wasn't but i asked him: "you mean i look pregnant?" and he looked really paiseh! SIGH.
anyway, re: strollers on escalators. my hubby juz told me that my maid can't handle the stroller when they're on the escalator. i told him the other day too when i was out with the maid and baby - she was struggling with the stroller (baby wasn't in the stroller) when we were on the escalator. usually i'll carry my baby when we r on the escalator or cross the roads coz i'm super kiasu.

i nvr or doubt i can handle stroller with baby on escalator. infact my boy seldom on stroller as he always been sling
now as he gets heavier.. i wonder how can we handle him esp when he sleeps as he is not really used to sleeping in stroller. i really pei fu those baby whom can sleep long in it

MICK: HAR NAH I KNOW YOU VERY SLIM AND PRETTY. You don't have to ruib salt unto my wound! *sob sob* i abish u lovingly!
Blueroti: eh I think you are OK, not fat fat type. If u short, compare with me ok? I am 1.54M and 62KG I win!
I am still wearing some of my maternity clothes cuz I couldn't fit into my regular pants anymore. Some of my blouse also too tight and I gave up thinking I can lose that weight to fit in again!
However, sometimes I will just pretend to be preggie (just stick out tummy a bit) and see if anyone will offer me seats !!!!
Min: Sometimes I will ask my hubby to repeat the instructions back to me, to make sure he knows what he is suppsed to do!

Vitasoy
i gave a small packet of 125ml of Vitasoy to my boy and he can finish it all up. i think he has issue in using straw to drink water. but when he drink vitasoy .. he is ok!
now my boy really hate water to the core! i can stuff him with biscuit, bread n yet he can strongly object when he sees water coming

Hellowww..
Back from Krabi trip. We drove to and fro. Gladys puked numerous times coz of motion sickness I guess. She doesn't wanna sit still in her car seat and was like crawl up and down and look behind at her little bb friend. Well, blame it on my hb coz he just loves driving/ riding. Remember we just drove to Phuket last Sept?
We took 6 hours to reach the Thai border and another 6 to reach Krabi coz we wasted a freaky 2 hours at the border!!
Anyway, quite fun. Bb quite tan now. I am super shack coz I am always the last to sleep and first to wake. What a holiday. I took 2 days to recuperate.
Hb wanted to keep bb at home but I insisted to tag her along so who can I blame? Anyway, we have another couple with us and a 4 months old bb. He slept through most of the journey.
We rented a bike there and Gladys doze off most of the time on the bike. I had this super huge hot dog and share with her and she puke agian, coz of indigestion. I'm a horrible mum.
Michele
The Buri Tara Resort is nice and still new. But the pool is quite small hor. They gave me a bb cot but then no mattress one. They stuff in a folded up comforter instead. But anyway since our bed is huge, I like her sleep with us. The only thing I'm disappointed is that the beach is no where near and it's so dirty and crowded by the locals. We went to Sheraton's private beach instead. Luckily we're foreigners.
Then during our stay, there's this ang moh lady who enjoys nude tanning at the pool side and my dh 'tan dio' lor.

Congrats on the birth of your little princess! I've smsed your earlier but don't know if you've received.
Mrs Lai
Wei, don't be upset. I think most of us here are still unhappy with our weight/ figure now. I, for instance, is still shy to appear naked in front of hubby now leh. The other day, he just showed me video he took of me suntanning in bikini on a yacht in Bali. That's rubbing salt onto my wound!

Went to check out the Volo, but then only pink and orange and it's 07's model so still considering. I prefer 08's colours leh.

Oh ya, about bb's falls.
Gladys just hurt herself again. She climbed down my bed and tried to walk 1 step towards my TV console. She enjoys hitting my TV screen. Don't know why. She does this everyday so she's pretty good at this already but then just now she missed it and hit herself at the corner. She was wailing but I don't know where she hit herself but when she climbed onto my bed, she rubbed her face on my comforter and there was blood stain leh. It was coming from her mouth coz there was so blood at the corner of her mouth. But she refuse to let me see the inside. I'm just worried if she could have injured her teeth or something. Sighz..
But then, she seems ok shortly after so I take it that she's ok. Sometimes I really don't know what to do with her leh. Like, I can't be standing behind her always right? I suspect she's hyperactive, prob inherit her father's genes.
Now, I've got aching shoulders again coz I brought her out today.

jesse, disney, min and michele,
sorry didnt join you gals cos my NUH appt lasted till 5pm! in the end, i met my husband and mil at holland V for dinner. my boy was a terror at dinner tonight. he's having some inclination to self-feed now so he'll always grab utensils that he see on the table and stick it into his porridge bowl/container. he also enjoys sticking his hands into his food to play with it. plus today halfway thru his porridge (one of the few times that i'm successful in feeding him), he puked his milk out. yikes. eating was a mess today.
gene,

dlim,
which learning vision centre are you considering? i was deciding between learning vision at temasek labs/nus and agape little uni at biopolis. in the end, the final deciding factor for me was that the first centre was cleaner and more organized. the final deciding factor for my husband was that the first centre had full length windows for the bbs to peep out onto the NUS bizad slope, so the room is very bright and nice in the afternoons. my other considerations were ...
learning vision @ temasek labs/nus
<u>brownie points</u>
1. nearest centre to my workplace
2. bb bathing/changing area spacious and bright. bb's personal belongings packed into spacious, neat and properly labelled cubicles
3. play area has different components: padded section, kitchen section, toy area and window area
4. bb sleeping area has a breastfeeding corner (mothers of the younger bbies encouraged to drop by during lunch time to feed bb)
5. orderly environment: only 15 bb in infant class and less than 10 tods in 18mth-3yr class. and that's the entire centre already.
agape little uni @ biopolis
<u>brownie points</u>
1. nearest centre to my husband's workplace
2. $100 cheaper than learning vision
3. has gymboree type of classes at the ntu alumni gymroom every friday
4. water play on designated wednesdays at the ntu alumni pool
<u>turn offs</u>
1. bb bathing/changing room was a mess. very small area; bb's belongings placed in little baskets all over the place
2. play area was half the size of the one at learning vision. had a small padded set and toys, that's all
3. no windows
4. when i visited, a playpen was used to 'quarantine' a 13mth old bb. learnt from teacher that he was going around biting other bb
5. principle has an infant, but she herself did not put her bb in her own infant care centre, prefering a maid at home instead, whereas her first daughter (now a tod) was placed in another agape centre in the past
6. disorderly environment as the centre caters for 2mths - kindergarten. there were childern here, there and everywhere in the centre.

Min,
hehe...don't worry about it. I think some men are like that so you will stop asking them to do things! This is my HB's perspective. We can meet up next time. I'll be at RCT again on Monday...
sandwich,
long wait at the dr's? So what jab did he miss?
I'll show you my Bjorn another time then...
Hope Kaizer is doing better. I hate it when they throw up...
Gene,
You mean you drove from Singapore to the Thai border in 6 hrs? Did you stop? It takes me 8 hrs to drive to Penang. haha. Am thinking of driving to KL later this year...try and see if Jesse can tahan.
Okay, I feel bad liao...HB sweeping the floor, bb playing on his own and I'm here typing...something's wrong here!
Have a great weekend!

jesse, hb & i drove up to KL last new year's eve. took us about 4 hours (with stops)... i think 4 hours still managaeable considering claire is one baby who refuses to sit in the car seat! i dun think i can managed any longer than that - but it helps that we timed to start the journey around her nap time so she slept about 2/3 of the journey!
gene, yup, buri tara's pool is pathetic - but why do you need the pool when the beach is so beautiful (of course i'm not talking about the main beach!) keke... anywhere where you find farangs, the guys will 'tan tio' one lor. haha...

hey jmon! congrats again!
hang in there! bfing will get easier after the 1st few weeks! remember that you're giving the best of you to your bb gal! initially, i also had very bad engorgement (to the extent that i had fever for a few days) but now?? its been more than 1 year since I started bfing already!
you can actually get ashton to help you clear the ducts - just let him latch on one side and you pump the other! its much easier to express that way too! try it!

wah jmon
good to hear fr u and know that your girl is doing well! anyway, your threshold for pain must be very high! last time i had contractions i could only stay in the ward, and i had to bend over everytime the contraction hits! so i also duno how u tahan and go for your driving test!
eh mrs lai
u look quite tall leh! u definitely dun look 1.54. i used to be 48kg so guess all my frens and colleagues not used to seeing a chubbier me. anyway, want to go on diet but find it tough. m hungry most of the time!
hey gene
hope your baby is ok! guess our babies are now more active n curious so...i also find it hard to keep up with my girl.
and wah u went to krabi! my hubby refused to travel anywhere outside s'pore except for bintan, so we'll be going to sentosa next mon to stay for a nite.
hi disney
juz saw your earlier post abt ramen. the ramen shop at gallery hotel is called sapporo ramen if i'm not wrong. i like the "rubbery" texture of the ramen but the soupy 1 is abit salty. the cold noodles (wh is not cold at all) is pretty good.

hi disney
juz saw your earlier post abt ramen. the ramen shop at gallery hotel is called sapporo ramen if i'm not wrong. i like the "rubbery" texture of the ramen but the soupy 1 is abit salty. the cold noodles (wh is not cold at all) is pretty good.

augleo,
is JK reading the love you through and through book? i've just started reading it to kaizer cos my husband bought it back from US last week.
jesse,
we were there to take a patch test for allergies to egg yolk, chicken, salmon, tuna. in preparation for infant care (cos these are things commonly served there). we didnt take a jab, but went to the immunization room and spent some time there. cos MOH didnt receive his Hep B jab records, but we've already taken it at the hospital before. so have to ask them to call MOH and all that.

jmon,
if you don't want to get Ashton to latch on, then you can express the excess and let him drink it thru bottle/cup. will be wasted to throw it away. is adeline in NICU now? how are they feeding her? did the nurses/doc say when you'll be able to try to latch on directly? when that day comes, then a bit more convenient for you cos don't have to pump out.

sandwich,
oh i see
Didn't know they have patch test for such things...how about lactose? I asked my pd and she said the only way to know is to give him! erm...no thank you. He just recovered and is going for jabs next week... Since Jan, he's been sick a total of 6 weeks, so I'm not that desperate for a cranky kid.
oh i see
Disney: Onz! I am still craving for Japanese food dunno why. I just cooked teriyaki chicken, but with normal rice. We eat rice so infrequent that it didn't make economical sense to buy a pack of japanese rice to make the meal complete. I even have my seaweed shreds to throw on top of the chicken! Wanted to cook with leek but the NTUC i went didn't have it, so ended up with golden mushroom. No idea how it is going to taste like though - i couldn't get my usual teriyaki sauce either, so I just made do with another japanese brand.
One of my fav "jap" shopping areas is actually the one which used to be at Ginza. I think it has since moved back to south bouna vista road, so maybe can pop by one day after work. Can buy sashimi grade fish and the whole lot of japanese items. It's good for me cuz I seldom go to isetan and I've never been to meidiya yet!
Jmon: Your gal and my gal share the same ying3! Jia you!!!!!!
Gene: welcome back!!!!!!!! we miss you too !!!!!
Blueroti: I am - always the shortest in class. Luckily at work, most of us are about the same height ALTHOUGH they are 1/2 my size =( But thank you for saying I look tall!!!! So happy!!!!!
Blueroti and disney: great world city first floor is ichiban boshi i think.
kids falling: my gal just now wanted to grab her biscuit but cuz her other hand was occupied with soemthing else and it slipped. So she "roll over" and boing boing boing her head 3 times Of cuz wail lah, but too much cuz i was smiling at her.
And her hands were so fast earlier, I didn't see her putting a piece of my ribbon into her mouth. So I saw something shiny and I panicked. Lucky it was a relatively big piece so she was trying to chew it!!!! So I give her cookie, she open her mouth and I quickly just fish it out before she chomps on my fingers.
Gene: ASK HIM TO STRIP INSTEAD!!!!!
