(2008/02) Feb 2008 MTBs

dor,
Thanks! Yeah, she's my mom. Looks alike meh? None of us looks like my mom one... actually, my face is like a copy of my dad...
sad.gif
I prefer to look likes my mom... prettier...

wow... 10 years liao lah... you married very young right?

Hbs,
Hahaa... I think all hbs the same one... that time my hb also trying to persuade me not to take by saying he knows how to take, it's easy lah etc... but to me diff lor... somemore if he takes for me, then we cannot take together liao... so I don't care lah, insist to go get a photographer to take, he also no choice :p

garfield,
I also like the black and white one... and quite like the "in labour" photo too... find it quite funny.

I think it will be fun to take wedding photos with your bb... yr bb can be your flower girl leh...
happy.gif


h@ppymum2b,
Actually, I think if take the maternity photos with your elder kid, can be quite interesting leh... coz they are like so small and hugging our big belly... it's quite cute... but it also mean have to take 2 times liao... more $...

PJs,
That day went to get PJs... gotten 1 from CK... dunno can wear the pants or not... the PJs looks very aunty one... somemore the receipt even indicate "PJs aunty"... faint! my hb very bad, laughed at me when I showed it to him... Then I got another PJs from the chinatown market... I got the guy's version... coz at least this one I think I can wear the bottom... but I guess I gotta get a nicer one leh... if not will feel very sad... Where can I get cheap and nice PJs with bigger pants... now butts damn big lah...
sad.gif

<font color="0000ff">photo shoot,</font>
ya 1st quarter next year sounds good. although i quite keen to get my wedding photos done (just in case kena number 2....i will go and bang wall lor =P) so maybe we can negotiate together but cater for a range of dates from Q4 2008 to Q1 2009?

<font color="0000ff">hospital bag,</font>

Family photo shoot,
Garfield, good idea leh! See whether we can get better price or not... Think my parent-in-law also want to take family photos when bb is out...

h@ppymum2b,
If we are taking the family photo next year hor, must take it before we are pregnant with no. 2 or 3... else gotta wait for another 2 years liao...
happy.gif


Kitsune,
I like the table leh... can put bb stuff, more organised... how much is it huh? dunno hb will want to buy or not... now all bb stuffs are in the storeroom...

Haha... my hb looks natural only when he made funny faces... if he takes standard photos hor, he will try to open he's eyes big-big with a template smile one...

dor,
You still eat durian lah... you not scare bb too big meh?

Xiao Yun, Jeannie,
Sent liao.
 
snowbelle,
saw your photo. very cute and nice leh. ur hb seems really enjoying it.
cute to see you write ur gal's name on your tummy.
happy.gif
 
<font color="0000ff">kitsune,</font>
haha...so funny!! a pic tells half the story only? *wink* do you intend to keep your bulky baby accessories and prams etc in a cupboard or not? i'm scratching my head how to...cos i don't have a store room. so wondering if i should just close two eyes and leave the things lying around or what....

<font color="0000ff">snowbelle,</font>
for PJs, my friend advised to get a combination of dress type, and those shirt and pants type. cos in the day can be quite warm, so you may not want to wear the pants type. the shop i went to at marine parade sells both types @$7.90 each, or $14 for two. the dress type dun have to worry about the bottom elastic not fitting and it's very roomy. and they have many nice prints - hello kitty, little twin stars, my melody, forever friends etc. let me know if you want i can get for you cos very near my place.

<font color="0000ff">jeannie,</font>
haha...MJ no such thing as common stake leh, cos depends on the appetite of risk of the group playing lor. for my group, we play 20 / 40 stake. so for
- 1 double = 40cts / 80cts
- 2 doubles = 80cts / $1.60
- 3 doubles = $1.60 / $3.20
- 4 doubles = $3.20 / $6.40
- 5 doubles = $6.40 / $12.80

most pple cap winnings at 5 doubles (or limit as they call it). but i have friends who play unlimited one....so can potentially win like 8 or 9 doubles =)
 
Hospital bag,
Do you think we should prepare a float so that we can sit on it in the taxi on the day of discharge? Scare it will be too painful to sit leh... but dunno will ppl laugh at us or not
 
re: hospital bag
i haven't bought these 2 items yet:
4. Pyjamas - two sets front button
5. Nursing bra - two sets

how do you ask the CK (heard it's cheapest there, right?) ppl about the nursing bra?
 
re: durian
i had durian on Sunday too.. yum yum
but only 3 'hood' of it. kena 'chop carrot' by the seller. 1 small pack with 6 'hoods' of D24 sold for $12
 
snowbelle
can u pls PM me ur link? i like 2 c ur photos. thks!

i brought my swimming float 2 e hospital so i was sitting on it after giving birth.
 
xiaoyun,
apparently, the lady at CK told us they only carry one type of nursing bra. so i reckon you can ask the lady at the bra counter for it. CK sells the PJs too...but the prints are a bit limited if you dont mind.

kel,
you mean those inflatable swimming float for kiddies? would the hospital provide?
 
Xiao Yun,
hehee... that's why after taking the photos, I kept teasing my hb lor... dun want to take, making up excuses before the photoshoot... yet in the end, he enjoyed the most one...

garfield,
Is the PJs material thin or thick? I scared if I get the dress one, can see through a bit leh... my fil will be in my house too, not so convenient... btw, where is the shop? in marine parade shopping centre or outside one? I quite big size leh, scare can't fit me...
 
wow... garfield.. then u not babd leh.. camn win $65.. i kept losing for the past few nights when i played with my in laws.. think i still cannot make it...

actually the reason i asked cause my gf came over to my hse and play then i told her we playing 20/40 , think her bf was quite shocked cause it seems they play $1/$2 or $2/$4.. I was shocked.. thought i very suan gu.. cause my gf say this is the std rate..
 
Xiao yun,
Just ask them for nursing bra will do. I did that as well and got 2 from there at $3.90 each... no padding one... feel a bit insecure...

Kel,
Sent liao. Where did you buy the swimming float from? Dunno where to get at Sengkang leh... still prefer old town...
 
snowbelle... saw ur pics.. very cute... i like the one that u pretended to be in labour and the black and white one.. very serene.. very nice.
Your tummy looks nice too... my tummy not as round as you and i also not as slim as you.. sigh.. think will not look that nice..
 
snowbelle,
the PJ material is thin cotton t-shirt type. but the background is coloured with prints all over...i tried and it's not revealing lah (even without a bra). dimensions wise - from armpit to armpit is 56cm. from collar to shoulder seam is 16cm. it's very roomy for me even now with my preggie tummy so i think post delivery should fit you too.

actually, i think any old town central should sell these type of PJs. not sure about sengkang though. can get and pass to you if you are going for 12jan gathering?

jeannie,
haha...your gf is BIG gambler then. those stakes are very high. must be prepared to win/lose 3 figures or more. my weekend was quite good. one zi mo 5 doubles already 30+ dollars winnings =)
 
yar lor... i thot something is wrong with me...so paiseh..

Massage ladies

Hey gers.. u all got ur massage ladies?? i have not book yet leh.. U all got any pp in mind??
Garfield u booked already?
 
no lah, nothing wrong with you. most pple are comfy playing with 20/40 stake.

post natal massage,
no leh...haven't engaged anyone yet. my friend recommended me somebody but i've not called her up yet. i think the jan08 thread is actively discussing this topic. not cheap also...

Wa, Dor, you married at 23, no wonder. I got married at 30, so cannot wait until 10th anniversary. Told hubby we renew our vows with our kids (while they are still young) so that I can 'marry' on the date I wanted and have the beach wedding I planned. But by then, very old liao. :p

Oh ya, what dishes did you try at Ah Lam's? I passed by it again today. Will go try with hubby before I deliver.
happy.gif


Kel, is it a good idea to bring the float to hospital? I still haven't decided whether to bring mine cos I asked a few mtbs but no one seemed to have brought it to hospital. :p

jeannie, kitsune, garfield
my husband bought e swimming float fr a provision shop opp.

4 my 1st delivery, i didnt use e float at e hospital cos it didnt feel tat painful n i was relying heavily on painkillers then.

2nd delivery, e episiotomy was rather painful leh. i cant sit well 4 long so got husband 2 bring it down. i delivered on a thu nite so husband brought it down 4 me on fri afternoon cos i realised i cant sit well on a fri morn. it was a relief 4 me.

btw hor...my pain threshold super low. i used epi for 1st 2 deliveries so tat kinda pain fr e episiotomy wound, i also cant tahan.
 
someone asked abt discount at MAH pharmacy. if i recall correctly, it was 20% disc but hor...it was given during my 1st delivery. when i popped e 2nd time, i didnt get any discount voucher. if i do get tis time, i'll check wif e mummies here if they like me 2 get e milk bottle caps.
 
hi mummies,
i switching back 2 my old nick cos kept getting confused which nick 2 use in which thread. i frequented e other threads related 2 my 2older boys...yr end 04 &amp; aug06 thread.

kelly (weddingfairy) = Kel (bkge)

i started e new nick back then cos didnt wanna any1 2 know abt tis sudden accidental pregnancy.
 
just came back from watching movie...hb's friends very cute, keep asking him to bring me out park tor more often before i pop to enjoy couplehood. very good brotherly advice right? =P

happymum,
can send me your massage contact also? thanks!! aiyo you not old to hv number 2 lah...i older than dor, only number 1, even worse!!

dor,
thanks for the tips on what not to bring...can save space!

ah lam,
where is this ah lam place?
 


Kel, Oh I see, ok, think I'll just bring it but put in the car first. If need, then ask hubby to bring up. Cos mine is the black rubber clinical type, looks quite obiang. Hee. :p

HappyMum2b, can introduce to me also? I'm trying to get someone to do prenatal massage for me urgently. Back &amp; butt very pain, I got low threshold for pain too. :p

Garfield, Ah Lam is at Kaki Bukit Industrial park near the foreign workers' hostel. Forgot which block, but quite near to Techlink (if you know where that is).
