dodo: i totally agree with e rest.. just give her instant noodles if it's inconvenient...she can always add some veg and meat inside. I love to eat instant noodles too. who knows, she might like it too...
no worth getting stressed over her...ur time is better spent with ur 2 lit ones..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CHERIE!
Dodo,
Forgot to reply you. After deliver in Dec, Dayan is only 14mth old. I do not have any family members helping me out. So will be alone handling the two. There'll be two scenerio when Danson comes out.
If i gg back to work, will sent Dayan to CC and Danson to infant care.
If not, will sent Dayan to those 2-3hours playgroup daily to let him learn things. Danson will be at home with me lor.
Haizz! hard choice...
But anyway, when we have our 1st one. we also dun know if we can handle or not. And yet we did quite okay right? So with no. 2 though dun know what will happen, but we just take things as they come ba. Surely, we came work things out! Jia you! and please take care of yourself.
Btw, letting maid eat instant noodles very good k? I also eat almost everyday! to save time. Okok..i knoe its unhealthy for me..but i lazy to cook proper meal.

Oh, so confirm Dayan's little bro call Danson? Nice name, hope he's as handsome as gor gor. keke.
Sound goin to b tough on u to handle 2 at a time. Will u b gettin a confinement lady? As the old saying, confinement is an impt period for women. Must "bu" enough and also get plenty of rest. As "predicted" by u, with #2 comin along, things will auto work out rite? Right now, juz stay positive & cheerful & look fwd to the arrival of Danson.

Happy Birthday Snow white .
Dodo,
Bcos i hv slip disc problems history. so gynae advise to go for c-sect. But i very "gian" to know how's the feeling of natural delivery?? But bcos the age gap is too close...he say better not, what if the wound tears and my bones split! sigh!
You are right! I am very uncomfortable for my option 1. But financially very strainful to HB leh. Aiya! see how..take things one at a time ba.
I dun eat cereal leh! Feels very milky. eee..
Hippo,
Buffet sounds great..any place is fine. Most impt, its the gathering. But hor, no need bcos of me to accommodate the dates leh..paisei!

jas,
oic.. then better not to try natural.. u must really "bu" after this delivery.. dun let the condition worsen ya..
for my case, i have emergency c-section last time round, asked my gynae can i have a natural delivery he said no prob, but he advised me to have c-section if bb size more than 3kg, coz he worried my wound will tear... i really wish to have a natural delivery this time round, but i think bb weight most likely above 3kg coz zq was borned 3.3kg loh... and both my hubby and my birth weight above 3.5kg one.. shall see how when the time nearer...
how abt porridge? simple porridge will do also.. at least more nutritious ya...

Hippo is right. The 'cake' is from The Patissier. I love their cakes too! Profiteroles are actually cream puffs so the croquembouche is made up of a tower of cream puffs of assorted flavours like mango, strawberries, chocolate etc. There's no need to cut it. I just use those party forks & 'poke' into each puff & give to the guests. Very convenient Oh, there's also a small brownie on top, which is very yummy!

jas..is like norm for them to get sick when go cc.. like everymth hv to go see doc at least once (1st few mths lah), cos if one kid kana flu/cough (hvnt totally recovered then go to centre, the germs spread liao cos some of them duno how to cover their mouth or turn away when they cough, u can hear the phlegm like so thick, aiyo...) last time once she enrolled cc & fall sick, i brought her to gp, 1st Q doc asked is 'go childcare izzit'??? after 2yrs in cc, now she still kana flu/cough/sorethroat occasionally despite those flu jab,etc, but so far still manageable like those 5-10days type will recover. see doc until bcom like friend friend liao *pengz* bobian, if not hv to work, will look after myself rather hv to worry they get sick or hfmd, tat's y v impt the cc hv to do their part in cleanliness. re instant noodle, dun eat so much now la, u cook simple porridge for lunch or share w dayan??

dodo,
i paid around $180 for it. I have to provide my own figurines & the sesame street candles. They don't have the copyright to do sesame street theme so they can't do any figurines for me. But the chef is quite nice & accommodated by using the sesame street colour theme & signboards. Ya, i am indeed very happy with this 'cake'

dodo.. yalor v heartpain but bobian... go cc got pro & con lor, i let mine go bcos is learning age & nanny cant shuffle her up&down schl 4me cos tat time she bbsit another bb, we cant hv a maid cos nobody at home. at least now she more independent (daring i wud said!!) once their system 'immune' to the cc environment, things will get better. most impt is they learn to interact w friends & get prepared to P1.

dodo,
his feeding is still very slow & erratic, plus he needs to be constantly entertained else he won't even open his 'gold' mouth! i think i have more or less resigned myself to his bad eating habits! i should have known...cos when he was born, he can take up to 2 hrs to drink 80ml milk! my confinement lady super concussed after feeding him each time! haha

happi fifi: ur cake is really unique and very nice!!! hahah think aidan very selective with his feeding.. dun worry too much, as he grows more exposed to the food we eat, there bound to be some preferences for certain kind of food!
jas: yes confinement really impt!! must rest alot!! next time i surely getting a confirnement lady then can get her to help as much as possible. last time did at MIL and in the end so tired out by myself cos night feeding no one helps out and she always like nag at my hb if he wants to help! *grrr*

Re: Straits Kitchen @ Hyatt.
Hippo,
If we do LUNCH from Mon-Fri, I can get discount. 2 diners for 50%, 3 diners enjoys 33% savings. Unfortunately, 6 diners and more, only 15%. Well, better than nothing. The discount applies to food portion, excluding beverages. Not applicable on eve and PH. When confirm, have to make reservation.
BIG CONGRATS to Dodo & WenWen on your 2nd pregnancy. Jas, all the best to your delivery in Dec. I had C-section for both my deliveries. Coward mommy afraid of tear down there, keke.... Someone was telling me, "alrdy damaged one place, why bother to damage another place (down there)" Although I hear that you do get the "satisfaction" of feeling the baby coming out from there, but I am just too coward to go thru' the pain.
