iso,
ya avent spree. i only checked prices for the via cups to store BM cos not intending to get anything else. it's US$4 before shipping vs SG$13.20 for 10 6oz cups. nowadays avent doesn't do discounts anymore in SG. so i think quite worth it.
i'm going to check out the SG prices for the avent non spill spouts and trainer cups etc. will post price comparison later!

DUST:
Ladies, just wondering - for those who do your own housework. What is dust-busting routine like?
Is your house (like mine, like my parents) in a constant dusty state? I mean, I know everyday have to sweep n stuff...but certain things that get left on table for too long and not used...get dusty right?
my home accumulates a layer within days.
my masterbedroom, even though everyday aircon at night, also a layer of dust on the shelf everyday.
Hubby say very sian to sweep/mop cuz do already still dusty. (i hate to point out that he was brought up by his dirty nanny, live in a dump, room got no space to walk and dust bunnies all over...of course he can live like that. my parents' place, is super clean. mum sweeps like 3-5 times a day! but 3-room smaller lah. 5-room sweep until sian...and somemore so messy...so many things all over the place
)
Headache.

Berry.. i agree!! I think baby really understands what u wnat to say and can tell the diff when u are angry or not. I confirmed this after last night event.
Yester night,abt 9 plus i was cleaning gwen up as usual before she sleeps.. just using warm towel and change to sleep wear, change diaper and everytime for the past 2 week.. she really cry like mad..scream to protest, and i have to sing her songs as i change.. sometimes it work and sometimes it doesnt. So yesterday.. she did it again.. i was a bit angry so i scolded her very loudly and looked at her sternly.. then she ooked back at me and she stopped.. then i continue to change her diaper.. then she held on to her own legs and start to wimper..(haha..super cute, like very ke lian.. cannot cry).. She only stoppped wimpering after i finished changing her..
Dunno whether she really noe that i am angry.. but it was super cute leh..esp when she like "kena forced" to keep quiet, can only wimper cannot cry.

eh..u all think if too much cereal will be constipated or not?
any comments on Healthy Times Brown Rice cereal?
(my mum is on some brown rice craze now...even adults also she want us to eat brown rice...ugh.)

RE : BP on Braun Blenders

I just realised that for my previous prices forgot to put in buffer for the BP amount I paid to the moderator. Aiyo... Nowadays a bit blur blur.

Hi bx,
The blenders can be used to make purees and then when baby is bigger to cut food into chunks for munching. No need to mash or cut which can take some time and may have accidents (if one is as clumsy as me). Especially for hard fruits, no need to steam or boil to make softer to mash and waste all the nutrients.
Hi Garfield,
I am getting the MR 5550 MCA as I don't have a blender at home so can be used to mix and chop stuff for the adults at home too. (I am hoping to train my maid to cook at home)
Personally I prefer handheld ones cause lesser stuff to waste and clean. (hahaha super lazy mummy) Cause puree only need to put food in the beaker to blend then only need to clean beaker and shaft. Plus, my kitchen is super duper small. Don't even have space to put my rice cooker that I have to place on a stool. So handheld one easier to keep when not in use and takes up less space when I am using.
Below is my thought process for selecting the MR 5550 MCA:
If ONLY making purees, even the 2 speed MR 4000 should be sufficient (cause no chopper unless you get the attachment but that will make it the same price as MR 4050 MHC). The only difference is it has plastic shaft rather than metal shaft. I believe metal should be more lasting.
If prefer metal shaft and making purees/chunks then the MR 4050 MHC should be fine. But not sure how powerful cause only 2 speeds. The chopper also smaller meaning that only can chop a limited amount at a time.
So I concluded to get the MR 5550 MCA if not later regret my decision just to save a few dollars.

Artemis,
I think my bb is on the big side... so holding it up against her face still ok but when open up the glasses... it will squeeze the head very tight... I didn't dare to try yet... will try some ways to loosen it first
really want to see her wearing it...
hats,
Now I wanna get more hats for her... any idea where got good selection besides kp?
dust,
lezy, my house is in a mess... me and hb got high tolerance level... clean up the house either when we cannot tahan it or got friends coming... actually quite worried when my girl starts to crawl... we are always too tired or no time to clean up... actually, very tempted to get those robot vaccum cleaner... will see how first...

If you happen to have one of those wonderously curious and very determined baby, then these gadget to prevent spilling food will only spur the child on to be more deptermined to get them out onto the floor LOL!
lezy, use those magiclean wipes? V effective!
jeannie, aiyo I think your baby is prob a little scared.

Hi Garfield9,

The $33.50 is cheaper. Is it inclusive of shipping already? When and where can meet you ah?
Hi tongtong,
How much are you letting go for the Avent Bottom Balm?
RE : weight
I have been bingeing on chocolates these few days and yesterday while I was waiting for Danica's turn to see the doctor, I weighed myself. Horrors! I gained 1 kg!

The training cups are OOS right? I also want to buy. I estimate that I need to get 10 boxes of 8 oz and 5 of 6 oz. I think on our own can quality for the free shipping liao hor?

dunno if it's cuz me too fat la..cannot feel anything.
the only time i felt contractions was in the 1st 2 days after giving birth.
at the postnatal gynae check about a month after that, he said the uterus already shrunk back almost to normal liao.
so for me, if feel anything, i don't think will be shrinkage of uterus. honestly, i dunno why we don't menstruate. would like to have some time to find out why.
