hoep u get beta soon. i rem when i was preg i didnt take meds too. it was no joke. hang in there

wrt to med, if in doubt ask doc tho' - sometimes some meds dun pass thru to bb via mom's body

snnowy
i was tinking of lettin my bb pick item(s) too but pondering how to get hold of a weighing scale. did u loan yrs from medicinal hall? no pt buying one just for ceremoney rite? also must it definitely be copper coins? or any coins will do?

 

[banque_suez]

Loh
lol, u really crack me up when u said "resist their black magic" - yah, it does seem like dat sometimes hor, e sales tactics

 

[banque_suez]

wrt to black magic, i read a while back in papers a helper collected her employers hair to send back to Indo to black magic on her. *shock look* duno if true or not ... (trembles)

 

[nins]

Loh/Banquez,
waht I hate when in this kind of pampering treatment or hair dresser is, the person tries si\o hard selling u stuffs.. It's really annoying specially during massage or facial when I want to just relax.. This doesnt happen in Indonesia.. once u r in treatment room or in the salon's chair, u can ask for additional service or treatment, but they will not try to sell to u..

 

[ytanhn]

Hi mummies,
thanks all for your compliments and wishes for chloe.
was supposed to be away to bintan for 2 days for R&R time with hb, supposed to come back tonight but rushed back last night cos chloe is having fever as high as 39.9. bought her to KK hospital, doc said she's having viral infection. I asked if it is due to teething and the doc said no. anyway, chloe was rather cranky when she was trying to sleep, my instinct was to apply teething gel for her and true enough, she is teething! my chloe is teething!!! finally!
her fever is still up & down till now. keeping my fingers crossed for tonight.

 

[ytanhn]

adeline,
yeah.. chloe took her pics at foto-u, i chose benjamin as the photographer.

tinyvoice,
i bought the white t-shirt from Mothercare and had the words printed at novena square as the printing shop dun hv her size.

an_gal,
when we reached, chloe still reached out for benjamin's hand when he said 'hi' but during photo-taking time, she's not tat cooperative unless those 'zhi4 you2 fa1 hui1' pics. tat's her character.
yeah... i agree that melcolm looking more & more like daddy.
I too intend to start chloe on Scott's Emulsion soon. maybe in a month or two ba.

glee,
hi-5, chloe recently likes to perform that stunt too.

mel,
i didn't bring my own toys.. but i bought some things to attract her attention or to make her smile eg laptop to play her favourite nursery rhymes videos, KFC whipped potato & yoghurt. all her favourite.

 

[nins]

btw for those believing black magic does work, indonesians who practice the black magic say the power cannot cross sea one.. it's earth bound power..

 

[nins]

Snnowy,
great party!!! I am so worried now kekeke cos I prep only lately..

 

[nins]

wow now only got to read through the thread.. the twins finally found each other (or the mommies' twins to be exact heheheh)

 

[ytanhn]

jete,
here's chloe's bday cake. i also ordered from PG, think mine is the same design as snnowy except that the design was supposed to be for minimum order of 3kg but i told them that it's only for 10pax so they allowed me to order 1.5kg instead (w/o the top tier) - so nice of them.

2nd pics is with the cup cakes because the flavour of the cake is lychee martini and last min we invited a close frd with 2 kids so instead of changing the cake flavour, PG suggested we ordered cup cakes instead. the kids love the cup cakes. it's orange and chocolate flavours.

overall, i think that the cake is delicious and the design is pretty sweet.

 

[nins]

ythanh,
so nice cake & cuppies!! sorries bout the shortened bintan trip.. hope chloe feeling better..

 

[trish_77]

ytanhn, how much is the cake. Looks very nice!

[sarahng]

Loh,
No harm trying if u also have the intention 2 take up their courses, just that u dunno whether their treatment is good or not.

Aiya, I got headache of my tummy also. My stupid tummy just won't go down. If u go, remember 2 tell me good or not, if good, maybe I can go also, hehehe

 

[ah_bb]

[nins]

Tiny,
thanks.. no hurry lah

I am now thinking of converting Ike to Similac then to GAIN .. but can try NAN 3 also.. he's very picky with milk but not picky with food.. strange ya,,.

 

[rc_cola]

Mummies,
Now then I plan for Meg's bday! actually dun want to do, but seem like everybody is doing it.
Since we didnt do any celebration on her full month, I was thinking maybe a simple party will do for the 1st year bday

Now is my turn to ask bout Pine Garden cake.
Should we go down to order or can we order thru phone?
What if I dun have any cake topper??

Snowwy,
Where is Phoon Huat??
Your house very spacious ler, 4 rm or 5 rm??

My neighbour is parking their bench (for flowers) in front of my corrider, will ask them to at least remove away during my party.
Haiz it is so unnice to see the bench always, they are also not understanding to remove it themselves.
Maybe last time, the previous owner of my house didnt bother much, so they just occupy the space!!!! which I dun like!!!!

Nining,
Oh really?? black magic is earth bound? seem like you explore on this kekekeke

 

[ember]

Nining,
Nan ha taste bitter, not sure of normal Nan

nining, banquez,sarah,
Told my hb this morning abt the free trial, he said no need la, go climb staircase can liao..aiyo

hypnotise,
My colleague went to taiwan being persuade to buy thier pearl products, then she blur blur spent more than S$5K in tt shop, only realised tt aft did the payment!

Dot16,
Ic. Their behaviour alike?

ytanhn,
Nice cake, and finally she is teething!

 

[andralim]

cola,
seems like we hav similar neighbour.. my neighbour oso park their bench and hav pots with soil, shoes, slippers etc there.. veri ugly and they die die oso wont remove.. i rem last time i wedding, ask them remove then immediately the next day they put back.. so inconsiderate

tinyvoice,
i got my family tee frm OP b4 going foto-u too hehe

 

[rc_cola]

An_gal,
Wah that is very inconsiderate.
I've got left and right neighbours, left one hor, even more inconsiderate, last time when we just moved in, we thought the whole plants belong to right neighbour, then we found out it was the left neighbour, tell them nicely to move to their place, never move wor.. a lot ler... then got mosquitos somemore!!!! It's not some precious bonsai or whatever, just those normal plants that become breeding grounds for mosquitos, yuck!!

Dunno what happen then sometimes ago they shifted all their plants to their corridor lor, now just left 2 to 3 pots of the right side neighbours + the bench!!!!!

 

[nins]

Cola,
heheheh I heard only lah.. But if you wanna "logicy" (--> my newly invented word!) it, all creatures need a home maaa, and they prolly even have family (kekekek) so even if you (employer) travel, doesnt mean that they (employees) want to be expat also kekekekekekekeke... but myself grow in family who only believe in the One above laah..

Loh,
ya Ike refused NAN with HA lah.. NAN without HA has been the only one he'd take without as much fussing as the rest of FM.. I think Paige also same..
your hubby same with mine kekekeke.. also dont want "new" gimmicks..

BLiss /An_gal,
where did you get your loot bags? I think I need more leeeh.. never thot bout inviting neighbours then realized that they also have kiddos..

 

[blis]

Nining,

[ember]

an_gal,
Think ur neighbour is trying to ferment the dead plants to make fertiliser...hehe, if so, u can offer ur boi poo poo to them, more fertilised!

nining,
Haha, i started 'smoking' when v v young (a few years old). Saw my grandma's cigarette, i either break all of them into 2 or try to suck like wat she did...

 

[avalanchelynn]

i think i'm gonna make a trip to amk to suss out pine gardens cakes for dd's 1st birthday! to think we've come full circle, i grew up in amk, my mom ordered a few of my birthday cakes from pg...and now i'm very like to head back to order from pg LOL...amazing! the thought tickles me...

but i'm not fond of blackforest flavor which i have heard it's their best selling..then there's the lychee martini which i obviously need to try...any other flavors to look out for? the generic chocolates and vanillas and the likes? hmmmm...

hey, can the sahms on this thread share with me how your days are like? do you follow a schedule/routine? sometimes i find myself wondering what else i can do with little kiddo OOOOOOPS! hahaha...and i erm, stink at cooking, which's something i wanna work on how do you find time to put food on the table for the rest of the family, or when do you start preparing for lunch/dinner? when baby's asleep or awake? which works better?

my baby's a horrid sleeper...she's worn quite a fair bit around here and right from day 1 in hospital she didn't like sleeping on her own (yup in the hosp, when we put her into the bassinet, she'd awaken and cry, sheesh...and we cannot do the CIO method, no way jose) so she needs me around when she snoozes....some days i love it (we've a wonderful bond), some days it annoys me cos i can't get things done...yeah....

 

[ginnyzlee]

burp,
I saw there are several tempting flavours which i have not tried.. like orange zest, soft chocolate and strawberry mouse..

Oh dear, my charlize is trying to "upgrade" her stunt to a somersault..
i'm so worried that she will hurt her neck, but she jus keep on attempting.. v headache

 

[goldenpiggy_mummy]

Thanks - oh dear, grefio is not available from 1-12 aug and that's when i need it. Any other contacts for helium gas?

PG - so is triple chocolate or black forest cake nicer? So now in a dilemna liao...

Cupcakes how much huh? Quite interested...

Just spoke to my usual GP and she asked me to take my son's cough syrup so my son won't feel even more drowsy than he is now...so will try tonight..

Loh - you very shiok hor! Go Tioman, we are thinking of going too but then want to go for a 1 day thingy - any good suggestions? Problem is my son need to feed at night else we can go for 2 days 1 night at the very least...

Rc_cola, when you collecting the milk from me huh? hahah, still holding for you..
