happy.gif

think better go chinese sin seh to apply or rub those medication cos will worsen when older le.....and by then u hv 2 to take care of.....cannot affort to be sick ma.take care looooo
 


Ya la.. me not very tall..then very broad..after first preg heng i manage to lose back before i am preg again. else i tink surely more jiat lat.

i cant wait to go get my back, hand and leg rub.. feel so sore. it was jus on Monday that i went for back massage. Now i am on weekly foot massage.. but it's just those foot massage. Not the medicated type. I will definitely go to one after i deliver plus when bf-ing is done.
 
pig07:well i went for body and foot reflex regularly during my preggie days and i mentioned b4 straight after delivery i had foot reflex daily fo 30 days(she came to the hospital) so hayley's quite strong esp her neck etc

need to pamper urself while u can mah hehehheh
 
Hi weishy,

now i hve weekly foot massage. The person didnt want to do back/shoulder massage for me. Probably cos they dont specialise in massaging for pregnant ladies. Only last week that i found another place whereby the person whom is willing to massage my back for me. Heavens!!

Is there any advantage of doing foot massage after delivery? i did realise that my calf is very sore for the 1 month confinement period. And i can feel my knee click clock away when i go down the steps.

The foot massage done after delivery one will use oil on the feet or not? If i am in hospital, i rather not use oil..very hard to wash off lei.
 
hi all, haven't been catching up on the forum lately and as usual so much to catch up till i give up. i juz read the latest page..heh.

any of yr babies taking one nap a day?
Today Eliza took a late nap till 11am-1pm, after that she can't sleep till 630pm. Then my mil woke her up at 8pm, say after that wake up in the middle of the night to disturb me. and she couldn't zz till like now..keep wanting to go out to play and will cry when we bring her into the room.

are babies this age whiny? Eliza's quite whiny when she doesn't get what she wants. a lot more this few days, sometimes cry bucket of tears till we give in to her or give her something novel. mayb it's her flu-ey nose but i'm wondering if it's juz her or is it a passing phase?

sigh i'm so tired out my this evening :S
 
skye, hope eliza sleeps better tmr. mebbe it was one of those days for her..... kaira does that some times too ..... there were a couple of days when her naps were not usual as well, then it went back to normal ... hope that is the case for eliza! but definitely she's napping less in the day on a whole now.

take care.
 
skye: whenever I put cailyn on our bed, she will start to cry liao. then she will cling on my shirt and pointing out to the door.. I guess its just a passing phase? Just hope so.. haha..

When we are outside, she can just barely sleep for 20mins and wake up liao. So the whole day her eyes will look so swollen and red and still doesnt want to sleep.. Me see liao also heart pain but she just dont want to sleep me also bo bian..
 
pig:: PLEASE LA where got big size!!! -,-"""" and you how? decided on csect or normal le ma? should be like gg to decide already eh? How's kiro's bday party coming along? heheh!!

thank you everyone and dreamer!
happy.gif
skyeskye:: sometimes travis does that too, ahhaha, but if that is the case, we will try to keep him awake till around 8pm. then we make him zzz. Easier for us. hehe!

Just weighed travis yesterday, only 9.25 aiyo! ahha!! okokies back to work. LOADS of marking. acn't wait to finish marking then no need come back school liao!

where is sharon and yany ha? hehe so long no see them post already!
 
S@L,
yah i still use bb wipes for both poo & pee. then when mischa pee, how u clean her huh?

k@ye,
aiyah i'm v easily bullied. my ma knows my situation & she always say i'm stupid. even lil Jovan knows who to bully.

Cindy,
CONGRATS!!! travis is going to have a mei mei. did u tell him the good news? hehehe

pig,
u look great although u r so heavily preggie. i still think kiros look like u.

skye_skye,
jovan also does tat sometimes. last 2 days he woke up at 4am & refused to sleep. change diaper, feed milk, rock him all no use. he JUST wans to stay awake. worse is he din sleep much during the day. he got v bad panda eyes. *sigh*

plim,
u are asking abt the ones at The Verge (old Tekka Mall) or Bugis?
The Verge
Mon-Sat: 10am - 7pm
Sun: 11am - 530pm
not sure abt bugis shops but i think should be ard same timing
 
Plim, ard 10-11am in the morning bah! They closed at 7pm!

SKye², Claire also like that one... If she dun get her way or we dun let her play certain things, she will be whiny and fake crying! So now, gotta teach her what is acceptable and non acceptable.

Cindy, Claire weights 9.8kg and i hv no strength to carry her for long!
Just wanna complain, my in laws came to visit us on Wed and they let Claire played with their mobile phone. So, i told Claire that she can't play with that. They still dun get the hint and continue to let her play. They only stopped till i spoke to Claire in a severe tone.

My FIL has the cheek to tell me that Claire is so smart to input numbers! Nvm, later i told my MIL that i dun let Claire played with our mobile phone so that it wont be a bad habit. U know what my MIL says,"Ya, but its ok to let her play with it for a while!"

I stopped short of telling her, "No wonder, my elder SIL kids are so spoilt brats coz its your doing!"
 
S@l,
TIA!
happy.gif
I am also giving up on Pink after hearing wat Catherine says.

Dreamer,
wat u describe abt Kaira on her drinking routine is exactly like ZY! Which is why i am so mad at her spitting out the water after drinking fr straw and stickiing hand into cup that i alternated it with beaker!

skye,
it did happen to me sometimes when we are out for too long and missed her nap time, and she will just take 1 long nap, but usually will hv to sleep earlier that nite, and might cry out a few times at nite, but will be ok the next day. So dun worry too much. In a few mths time, our baby shld only take 1 nap anyway.
 
Re: bad habits
i am the bad one who introduces thing like "touch yr head" and now ZY goes hitting her head with both her hands.. haha. I think it shld be fine at least she knows where her head is
happy.gif


Catherine,
glad u still hv contingency other than Pink. We also hv our own disputes over cake, that is why i also want to decide and get it over with, else keep hving changes and can go crazy.
 
lazykat,
i have cfm my cake order with Pink. actually she's quite a nice lady to talk to. just tat her work keeps her busy during the day & she wun reply sms when she's working. she can OT till quite late, almost 8pm+. then i think her 2 kids keep her busy too. i call her ard 10pm on both nights. i think tat's the time she's most convienient to talk. y not try calling her instead?

k@ye,
thanks for giving me the courage! yday told HB he'll need to collect the cake from tampines, he gave me black face! then this morning also nag at me! argh... already told him beforehand tat it's in tampines & he agree. somemore i try to arrange the timing it's on the way after he bring my parents home (in hougang) tmr.
 
catherine,

does the verge sells those small bottled bubbles?
thot of getting them as party gift coz i dun hv any 'programs' for kids coming to my gal's bday party... so boring lor.

now sorting out the party pack items and thot of adding one item for them to play - the kids coming to the party ranges from 19m to 13y/o.

anyone bot before? roughly how much they sell in packs of xx??

getting a bit more gan cheong liao... 1 more wk to go!!! argh...
 
Weishy: It's ok, no need to bring me the goat's milk. Will any change, will let him try out Gain first and monitor. Thanks alot!

Plim: Here's another party supply shop u can go:
Chia Nephews Toys Pte Ltd
Address : Beach Road Shop Houses
5 Tan Quee Lan Street
Singapore 188094
District : Bugis (Opp the old DHL ballon)
Tel: 63340509
Op Hr: 10am - 7pm

Pig07: U still look very gd and pretty though heavily pregnant lei. Yr stomach looks sharp hor, thot ppl said gal gal will be round stomach, boy - sharp, so i guess it's not true?

Cindy: Gong xi ni! Yr wish come through. So 3 minnies here?

Skye: Eagan still naps twice per day. 1 long (abt 2 hrs) and 1 shorter (30mins - 1 hr) nap. And though E is learning lotsa new things now, he is also learning to throw tantrum! He faked crocodile tears aft i scolded him for throwing things. I scolded and stared at him, he cried. Then opened one eye to peep at me, then stopped coz he realised it doesn't wk on me.

Xmas cum BD Bash: Weishy, i've a wedding to attend on 30/11 (and it's my birthday:0), so cant make it on 30th. 29th i'm ok. Hmm...seems like most of the mummies busy with wk or prep for the birthday bash, all no time to log in?
 
pig07:ye sof cos it helped me alot cos i hv very little pain after my c-section,1st day can walk to pee pee already :p

also it helpt o unblock ur milk ducts which i hv no problems at all
 
Skye,
Kiros will make noise if he wants to leave the room..pointing at the door.. tugging at our shirt to stand up.. liek wanting us to bring him out. when we refuse, he will yik yik aik aik.. Nowadays he is ok liao. Agree tat it could be just a passing phase.

Cindy,
My next appt is next wednesday. Will ask him to check baby's weight. His pattern is see how see how kind. Asked me to book and pay for normal birth first. ANything to discuss later.

As for kiros' party.. things are quite firmed liao.. now i am thinking of getting a photographer to do the shoots on tat day lei. I know i wont hve time to take pics for frens and relatives one.. but just realised that the friend photographer I used for my ROM and my nephew's 1st bday is out of town..

ANyone has contact for photographer? Dont have to be those professional ones. no need touch ups also. I just needed someone to help me with the photo taking for the 4 hour thingy.
 
Weishy,

is your contact in Singapore? I wont mind doing foot reflex during the confinement period.

I skipped post natal body massage the last round as i cant stand the oil and being wrapped.. And i tink i will not hve one this time round also.
 
cactusnah,
thanks for the info!

cindy,
gong xi ni!
next mth i cross finger i get all the 'boy boy' dust.... hee hee heee...

pig07,
wah, i peifu to you lah, can still carry kiros at this stage. my gal only 8kg plus n i oredi panting when i carry her from nanny's pl back to my pl... hv to alternate between both arms a few times! jia lat...

skye2,
was it u who ordered ecreative cakes recently for ur HB? is the blackforest flavor ok? wat is best ah? can recommend?
 
catherine,

what cake u order?? is it expensive?
let me know if the cake is nice after your party is over hor??
if nice maybe i oso order from the same person..
dunno where to get cake oso..haiz
these days i'm always so tired and restless, dunno y oso..
sad.gif
 
catherine: depends on the catering food. Some have big portion, then hor u don't need to order exact e.g. order 80% should be sufficient. Some caterer have very small portion, then have to order to the exact no of pple wor.

pig07: I did a calculate does it mean that when yr 1st bb is 5 months then you are pregnant already? If yes, must be very tough on you hor. As I find that now also a bit tough especially when my bb is teething or fussy, I can't help hub.

Wow!! u still can carry yr bb.
happy.gif


Kittybride: Congrats!! Must be a wish come true for you.

hmm... mummies not sure did you read mind yr body. Not sure did you read about secondary infertily? hmm.. wonder why it will happen hor. Anyway I guess only happen for older mummies and daddy and might be due to older age or lower sperm count.

Any bb gags when you feed solid? My bb seems to gag when the food is too dry and he is only when the food is too mushy. Wonder is it a cause of concern and any bb experience the same thing?
 
catherine, k@ye,
thanks for the info! was refering to the Bugis ones... (realised i forgot to indicate which shop in a hurry :p )

cactus,
oh, does this shop provide service for balloon inflation (helium)?


Anyone know where else provides service for balloon inflation (helium)?
Many thanks!

Ladies, i know got change in what was previously discussed... I guess hor... Just go with the flow, we tried to arrange again...

Dun want to NATO again! We must be more onz! Hehe, an excuse for us to meet up again!
 
A point to note, those who ordered from Jack's pl catering. Their portion is just right, will suggest to cater for 90% of the guest list if your guests can really eat!

Plim, the 3 shops at Bugis got the same opening &amp; closing time one lah...

Rachel, Claire also gag one if the solid food she dislike or too dry or not warm enough... I dunno y she is such a PICKY eater at such a young age!

ZZZ, u pregnant also?

Cactus, seems like our babies like to fake crying hor....

Catherine, ur hubby dun mind me saying machiam like got PMS! :p Tell u hor, ur hubby gives u face, u go tell him, "No need to get the cake, i get them to deliver and you PAY for the delivery charges!" Think he will do it!
 
Hi Kittybride,

I tink i realised i am pregnant when i missed my March AF. It wasnt too bad for me as both times i dont hve Morning sickness. In fact appetite is better this round than last. Fortunate for me is that I am putting up at my parent's place with help from them and maids.. They carry Kiros more and I am doing the night shift of night feeding and sleeping with Kiros.

If hor for me to carry Kiros for long hor, i tink i will pant also la.. maybe cos each time i carry is for a while nia and the maid will quickly come take over.

Maybe you want to use stroller for Chloe.. If to walk and carry at same time sure tired and breathless..

As for ecreative cakes, i have ordered their blackforest before. my friend did too. all good comments. Not too sweet. Just nice..
 
k@ye,

no lah but juz tired lor..
ever since after i gave birth, i always feel tired..
then the poorer memory also makes things worse, i feel like im a zombie..hahaha
 
ZZZ, a fren of mine told me to take more tonics now. Then another auntie fren advised me to take the "Bai Feng" pill one week b4 and one week after our menses.

This will improve our body and also keep our skin supple. Coz this auntie who does this, she dun look like she is in her 50s more like in her early 40s.
 
Hi Mummies
Any good caterers to recommend as the one we usually booked is fully booked in Nov?

Catherine
Ya you should be more firm in your decision like what k@ye mentioned. AT least show him that you are not to be trifled with. You shd also get him to pay 1/2 of the birthday expenses as its also his child.
 
zzz
me too immediately after I gave birth very poor memory so my mum suggested taking chicken essence now improving liao. Maybe you can consider. You can also boil some red dates and ginger tea add some brown suger drink during and after menses as it improves blood circulation so will not feel so tired as recommended by TCM.
 
Plim: Just called to ask, they dun inflate ballon neither do they rent helium tank. But the 3 shops at bugis does. When are u celebrating Bevis birthday?

ZZZ: How's yr US trip? Or u still suffering jet lag? Kee kee...I came bk from Mel last week also nua nua sian sian, luckily my boss gave me 2 days to clear all my emails and 'tune back'. Kee kee...

happy.gif

plim,

any1 has any idea??

so glad to know my colig going down tekka mall tmr so she will help me buy some of the supplies i need. was cracking my head how to get the things all done this wk with baby in tow...

weishy,
my hb going over to your dad's pl tmr afternoon, around 1pm ya.
 
kitty, u can try the imm florists I'm gonna use them this weekend for a few balloons. But if u have many than renting the helium tank is cheaper.
 
Hi Kittybride,

I tink will surely feel tired easily. Last time can maybe sleep undisturbed. Now will somehow be conscious that we hve the elder one next to us. And also didnt want to feel guilty, will also spend time and energy on the elder.

you not using sling either?
Will you be using the same nanny for your second one?

My sis contacted Grefio for inflation of the ballons. The charge like $2.50 per balloon. However not sure if its with condition that we must order balloons from them. We are looking at ordering the SKY WALKER (MICKEY &amp; MINNIE) from Grefio. Thought will be fun to have them floating around the room.

poochi,
how much is the florist charging you per balloon?
and i'm sure they charge differently for those normal latex type and foil type rite?
they will include the strings too?

pig07
exactly, with bb sleeping next to us, we're practically not sleeping well!
i've stopped using the sling once i got the beco. but now mostly hb using it instead of me. i am maid lor, carry all the barang barang while hb only carry baby! hmmm!! :p

as for nanny, definitely going to CHANGE for my no. 2 coz i dun wana spent 3 years waking up early in the morning to cook porridge for my kid while the nanny just wait for us to bring food over to FEED only.
will probably send my gal to childcare and no. 2 to another nanny; hopefully one that stays around the same place or near the childcare; so just go 1 direction! need my MIL to ask around by end dec liao.
 
kitty, normal is 11" $1.10 for foil 18" $1.50. Not sure abt strings I goin tonite will check and let u know. ;) I'm celebrating hazel's BD tommorrow :p, its their lunar bd!

i'm only going to do a super small scale one just for the 3 of us - will be cooking mee sua and red eggs for chloe too! 1st time coloring the eggs, hopefully the color comes out just nice!
happy.gif
 
Hi kittybride,

maybe you can paste small notices at the void deck area looking for nannies? But of course best would be known by yr mil or family.

If you ask me, i rather carry barang barang if really too tired. At least can be sure that barang barang wont squirm..hahaha..not so taxing.

My husband and I shared the same sentiments that babies are cutest when asleep..No fussing..no crying.. so angelic looking.. hahaha
 
Wow.... Poochi &amp; Catherine will be bz tmr celebrating their little one's first birthday!

Me so demoralised at work... My boss really dunno what to say... Just now, really want to cry out....
 
S@L: now you are famous! And we have a celebrity mum in our Nov thread. Heehee…
The clips are nice…too bad I have a son. Maybe when my 2nd one is a daughter, I will get from you. (Pocket hole sure very big!)

Pig: Kiros really look like you! So cute!

Catherine/ Langlao: My son also will blow saliva or if not, he will keep shaking his head. I am trying to teach him how to nod his head.

Weishy: Can the bifidus power to the water instead of milk?

Re: Poop
My son used to poop daily…but I think these two three months change to alternate day and sometimes two days in a row never poop.
Like what you mummies, sometimes can poop till crying hard. So heartache.

Cindy: Congrats! Your wish come true already.

Skye/ K@ye/ Cactusnah: I really hoping it’s a passing phase. Cos my son also will be whiny and fake cry when he don’t get what he want. Carry him away…worse, cry so hard machiam like I torture or beat him. Sigh…I really salute SAHM. I only took this week leave to take care of him already driving me CRAZY. Moreover, I am arranging his Birthday Celebration too.
 


Ballons: Mummies staying near Red Hill area. I found a place also selling ballons and party packs. (They supply the ballons to the party shop in Tekka Mall).

Kidforte Pte Ltd
Block 219 Henderson Road,
#02-04 Henderson Industrial Park.
Singapore 159556
Fax: (65) 6276 6022
Tel: (65) 6276 6033
http://www.kidforte.com/

They rent 3ft helium tank for 3 days $60 with $100 deposit. Can top up up to 40+ ballons depends on size of the ballons. FOC top up if u purchase the ballons from them (18" ballon for abt $7.50 each). Else, if u purchase the ballon else where, it's abt $1.50 - $2
