steph,
I paid the deposit becos I have already decided to go for the single room. Can pay later also. I think the nurse told me they will send me a letter with some pre-admission forms to fill in...sorry ah, memory getting worse these days! Anway, we can still change the room type after we have paid the deposit but subject to availability. As for the labour ward, Mrs Wong say cannot pre-book leh. I remembered someone asking becos they wanted the labour ward with the water tub but Mrs Wong say will depend whether it's occupied or not.

hi yvonne,.
TMC provide toothbrush and bb clothes n blanket ...
TMC provide toothbrush and bb clothes n blanket ...
Class at TMC - I attending tomo, its 7 to 9
. You mean first lesson already need to do exercise? I was still thinking of wearing jeans to attend. Sigh, I will also be attending the class alone. For the exercises, if we wear work pants, its all right? Or must wear capris? No need to really wear yoga pants?
Hospital Bed at TMC - I already booked the room during my 2nd visit when I was about 7th weeks, a bit KS hor? I also dont know why, when I was making payment with the nurse, she asked me to sign up the package with the doctor, coz its more economical to sign up early and also book the room so the hospital side will take note of my EDD. I signed up for the single bedded, so hubby can stay in with me, since first BB, more gan cheong also
Massage lady - actually if you have a good one in mind, you can start to ask around and inform them of your EDD, I already went around asking, but so far the one I confirm want her, she say no need to book, when I deliver just call her and she will arrange to come by, she say largely depends on whether I end up natural or C section. Coz C section cannot do massage so soon.
Pain - I attended the pre natal yoga class, there was a lady in my class who is in her early third trimester, she say her pelvic area pain, so a lot of the exercises she cannot do. It seems that as we progress into the third trimester, our body is adjusting and getting ready for the birth. The yoga teacher say some of us, our lower back will open up and for some its the front part, where its near the pelvic bone areas so that the baby head have got ample space to come down? For this lady, hers is starting to open so she will feel more pain coz the opening for her is slightly more than average wo. There are also some exercise the teacher was saying that is good for us coz we need to prepare the pelvic area to stretch so that when during delivery it will be easier. Some of the exercises, as I do, I feel like dying, so I can imagine the process of delivery, its really going to test our endurance and stamina.
Terrifying for a first time MTB like me.

Hi, everyone. Back to work today and too busy to check forum. 
Mei, thanks for updating the list. Wa! we have 34 boys and 23 girls ah. My RaeAnne will have lots of choices when choosing bf next time. Hee.
JenniferA, for cloth diapers, my cousin recommended Anakku, which is what her CL used to wrap BB. I'm supposed to buy a dozen too. Not sure where to buy them. I checked Kiddy palace but don't have, they only have Anakku diaper liners instead.
Wet wipes
Just checked, I bought 2 big packs of pigeon and 4 travel packs of Tollyjoy during JL sale. These two brands the material very thin ah? Bo bian, buy already so must use up first.

Ya, apparently, you line the cloth diapers with liners and if baby poos, then you just throw away the liners. It's easier to wash the cloth diapers cos only stained with urine. Ya, anakku means baby in Japanese if I remember correctly.

Well, I was a good girl when young leh. My granny can bring me go play mahjong, I sit there and wait. My mom say I more "gong". hahah...

Mei
Oh yes come to think of it, when cleaning poo poo, I use cotton wool, then wet it with warm water. So tat I dun rub baby's butt too much,. But v troublesome, save money though.

kitsune, if u r considering to buy capella S217, u can go to seiyu bugis & buy S217 stroller + baby car seat S1100 for $239 only. i bought the set on 1st Oct but not sure still have this offer now. but the limitation is they only sell RED color & i paid only $203 becoz they are having 4 days storewide discount(15% discount for this set). i think if u have seiyu card, can get 5% discount on normal days....
Kitsune, the diapers sound good
Have u found out where to get them?
Hammies03, the massage lady - my galfren use her for her normal slimming massage, then her sister used for her post natal, my galfren says she is good, but her sister say she lost all her post natal weight through breast feeding. But I have got another one that is used by my another galfren whom she say her 3 sisters used before her. My galfren put on 20kg
But when I saw her, she look quite slim after delivery. However, she say after delivery, she lost 10 kg immediately le. So I also not sure whether it works or not. But I heard from both that the massages are painful and very hot and unbearable.

Thanks, Superbee for the info. Just checked online, think s1100 is a baby capsule. But my friend said she'll lend me her baby capsule so combined offer may not be suitable for me. Too bad I missed the storewide sale.
Angelsky, no leh, think have to check out dept stores one of these days. Anyway, my CL using it to swaddle baby only, don't think we'll be using cloth diapers unless she suggest cos a lot of work to wash. Hee.

How old is your girl? Mine's 3, so I still wont allow her to watch tv dramas with us. When one of us watching, another will entertain her at her toy area. I grew up watching tv and I was v addicted, come home only see 3pm is wat drama, 9pm... End up hardly study, read, or wat... Since I can monitor now, I will try not to let her watch. Heee....

Mom2Nat

After telling my in-law that i'm pregnant. My fil asked my hubby boy or girl? Aiyo how will we know at week5? my fil bought me essence of chicken with cordyceps from the start till now. have to drink twice a week. but i hide quite a no. of bottles cos MS was so bad that i will puke after drinking. at week 18, my sis bought me bottles of bird nest. but didn't start drinking till recently. after confirmed baby is a boy, my mil also never boil any tonic for me. and she didn't even ask how my pregnancy instead i still have to sweep and mop the floor.
i remembered there's once, i wasn't feeling well and she told my hubby to ask me to mop the floor. My hubby told her i cannot mop because now i'm pregnant and she replied in a not happy tone. why pregnant cannot mop the floor. haiz... my hubby came in the room and told me so in the end i still mop and my mil laugh and repeat what my hubby have told her. i dun feel she care abt me lor even though i'm pregnant. but i know my fil very happy that its a boy because he is very traditional lor. cos i remember he told his nephew that no matter what must have a boy. so if its a girl, he sure will ask me to try for a boy. aiyo.. really cannot tahan... boy or girl also ok what. cos in the end is my kids. somemore he is already grandfather of 5 grandsons (2 are from his daughter) and 2 granddaughters. grhgrh... old ppl...old thinkng.......
sometime i was thinking, what if when deliver is a girl? will they treat me very badly especially i'm staying with them?

cheer up, no matter boy or girl, its still your baby.
sometimes i also feel quite upset, why must it be a boy? its the mothers that are going through the process of carrying the baby, does that not show that girls are good?
I feel important thing is to have a healthy baby. There are a lot of women out there who are having trouble conceiving, so we must really count ourselves very fortunate and blessed already.

Mei,
I also felt the pain between the breast and above stomach last night during my sleep. I wonder if it's becos our baby has turned?? Becos this morning i felt some movements above my stomach area leh...it has alwasy been near or below my belly button. I'm also feeling very breathless these few days...new symptom for me...so really wondering if my baby has turned head down or breech position...
