Re: Slings/Carriers
I got hands me-down from my sister for the Sling from Moms In Mind (MIM). I bought for my sis during her pregnancy & now it's my turn to use it. Quite new & my sis say easy to handle/tie. I am not sure whether i can cope to tie properly but if cannot i still have hands me-down carrier to fall back on. My sis bought the carrier from kiddy palace at $29.90 (aft discount) i forgot which brand liao.

QQ,
If I'm not mistaken, it should starts at 9am. My hubby wants to go this early as he's worried he can't find parking lot and also concerned the "good buys" will be gone by afternoon. Typical kiasu Singaporean hor! I wanted to sleep in coz it's a weekend but I think he'll bug me till I give in coz he's confirming to buy the humidifier and baby monitor. Sigh.
Hi Jennifera,
Don't mentioned it, we're all here to share. The good stuffs as well as the bad. I have heard about people having morning sickness till they give birth! Think that one is much worse. Do take care of yourself. If you have any particular craving and it's ok to eat, then go ahead.

Re: putting on weight
oh gosh..i think maybe now i put on quite a fair bit of weight already..since start till now around 21 weeks plus..i put on 6kg leh...I can't imagine eventually how much weight I will have put on. But also wonder how come I don't look fat leh? My frenz tell me can't really tell I put on 6kg...
Other than my bump in front, think my butt also getting bigger...lol...
Think my tummy is looking more on the sharper side than rounded leh. Is it true for those of u having boys?? At first I thought cannot tell a difference, but i think can tell diff between sharp and rounded...

I'm also interested in getting a sling, it would help with breast feeding as well, so that my arm wouldn't be so "suan". I saw one that is around $35 after discount at Isetan, but am not sure if it's sturdy or not. It's called the Babybond Sling. MIM slings look more colourful, but more ex. Dunno if they have any sales, not sure which one to get.
violetIce,
If u buy the MIM sling, it comes with instruction manual & free CD to teach u how to tie & secure bb safely. But hor, practice makes perfect loh...trial & error...ask ard if frds have anot & try first b4 buying. The MIM sling oso not cheap, cost ard $49 or $39, cannot remb exact amount.

Anyone bought bumbo seats?? Interested to get one? I wanna buy 2nd hand but still cannot decide wan or dun wan cos mileage is short. if anyone got lobang for cheap 2nd hand bumbo, pls let me know. Budget ard $30 but not more than $40. So far, didn't see any BP thread on this Bumbo seats...

I attended my first pre-natal class at TMC last Saturday by Mrs Wong Boi Boi. She told us to be mindful of doing massages because some therapists may not be experienced and can in fact rub till we get pre-term contractions! So scary. So better to be sure of the therapist that does the massage for you.
I have been to Rustic before, just to destress. But haven't gone back since I got preggers. The lady that does it for me does post-natal massages but not too sure if she does pre-natal.
Golden Pig
Really hope I will feel baby moving soon. Can't help but be paranoid sometimes.p

Steph,
That time Taka Fair the bumbo only about $60 so I think you can "coerced" your friends/family to buy lor. I know too, it's hard sometimes unless people asked what you want. Maybe close friends/relatives easier?
Mei,
I'm also sourcing for Chinese names but it's more like finding a word I like or names I like but quite hard for boys..

wow...so much going on today. Have to attend seminar until next Tue so no time to read the thread during the day.
Hammies, I also put on 5kg...now 20 weeks. I put on 2kg in the last 4 weeks but my gynae say it's normal and he expects me to put on about 2 kg each month from now on.
I think my tummy is really big now...just now on the NEL, a young lady gave up her seat to me...so nice of her. I also feel my baby kicking day and night now. He started kicking a few weeks ago but it wasn't so frequent in the beginning. He is only 321grams, as of last wed, but he sure can kick!
As for the chinese name, the book I read in Popular is a chinese book under the Fengshui section...there are lots of such books there. I think there are also books in English but you have to seah under the Parenting section...i remember i came across a book for chinese names written in English. It can also be found in other bookstores eg. Times, MPH.

Btw, my bro was testing out mobile ring tones on his PC just now, quite loudly. My baby actually responded by moving! Hahahaha.. I can't tell which part of his body is moving yet, but I can feel movement for sure. So happy. He must be excited by the loud music his uncle was testing us for us. *LOL*

fern, nexyanne, serene...me too SAHM. But relocating to Hk soon by Oct 07...cos hubby gonna relocate and work there.
As much as i love HK, i think being preggie make me crave for stability...so a bit "bu se de" Sg this time. (went to HK in 2004 too). Hubby wans to hire maid in HK to help out in housework...but am not comfy cos not familiar there.
Ah Capp...no need to rush and send chq for the antenatal class..u can actually give the chq to Mrs Wong on the first class when u attend. Dats wat i did.
Today i went to my gynae with my detailed scan results from yesterday. Everything is normal...yay! But she cautioned me cos for the last 4 weeks, i put on 4kg!!!!
Dats cos during my first trimester, i actually lost weight. But she scolded me cos i put on 4kg too fast!! Wan to restrict me in eating yong tau foo and oatmeal bread only...so miserable! I guess due to the stress...i am eating lots of "comfort food" like ice creams, waffles and unhealthy snacking habits.
Gotta watch my weight now....being preggie is no fun!

Hi mylife,
I also put on 3 kg in a month! My gynae never mentioned much but his assistant said I should not put on weight too fast! Plus my grandmother got diabetics so I must control just in case it happens to me too. Hubby's Grandmother also got diabetics. Heard it's hereditary. Sighz!
I've been eating a lot of durians lately, think must control coz they said durians make baby bigger faster but I think made Mummy fatter faster also. Hah!

violetice...yes! yes! My gynae also said durian contains lots of sugar dat make u put on weight!!! Admittedly, i have been eating durians lo....cos i love it..plus recently someone told me durians supposedly good for feotus wor....so now no choice lo...no durians for the next 4-5 months.
Mylife,
That's right lor! My friends told me durians is good for baby but then again maybe I have been eating too regularly. My mum buys durians home and whenever I go Takashimaya, they have this 4 Seasons booth selling durian crepes and puffs. Yummy! So I've been buying and eating lor. Alamak, now cannot eat feel very "ke lian"

Good morning ladies! A quick one before I rush off to work..
Hi Fern,
Your private msg is not turned on. Pls kindly turn it on so that I can msg u with my contacts =) Yes, I am looking forward to meeting up with u. Like u said, same clinic some more Heheheh ^_^
Hi Violetice,
Thank you for the link. =) Will check it out. I will want to get one for my darling. But I read somemore that we should only let our baby try the seat only when he can support his neck on his own.
Hi Chaye,
Wow, 400g+. Very good. =) I did ask my gynae for the length of my baby. But he said not required to take. Guess it's because nowadays with his arms and legs all stretched out, it will be hard to gauge. I guess don't have to worry too much about the length. =)
Hi mylife,
U went for the class already ah? Was it fun? Do we get to change diaper for a "plastic" baby? =P
I love durians too. But only ate once so far. My hubby has been pulling me away from the durian stalls until last week, I can't tahan anymore and buy 1 box! *LOL*
Btw, I was told by my mum that eating black sesame dessert (zhi ma huo) is good for baby. She ate a lot when she was carrying me and I was borned with thick and black hair =P Like a hair wig! A bit difficult for me to find the desserts, but if I see it, I will definately eat it. =)
