i hv a digital weighing scale. bought it more than 10 years ago. useful when it comes to measuring those 5g, 10g ingredients. think nowadays cheaper (i bought at abt $60-$70). good investment if you likes baking.

bkkgal, oh for kate. yahor you said she started to have runny nose. did she have blocked nose? if yes burned eucalyptus essential oil at night, or you can get albus oil and put on a towel/tissue in the room ( the smell is strong). yea you let her try lemon and honey. eat kiwi and plenty of rest and water or fruit juice

bkkgal, ya I tried the eucalyptus oil that I bought from Sydney for RaeAnne when she had blocked nose too. I just drop a few drops and put the tissue near where she sleeps. Sometimes I even drop onto her t shirt near the neck area. Seems to help.

bkkgal, i'm here but outside so using handphone to surf. Glad to hear that kate is feeling better. I think this thread only comes alive if there are new mtbs announcing their pregnancy. Hee.
hi mummies,
sigh. i normally really dun wanna have no. 2. But somehow, i'm missing pregnancy abit!!!
BUT...when i thought about it more....scared of delivery again!!!
So in the end, haha, the most unlikely candidate for no. anything will be me. We won't want no. 2 until...i dunno..something life changing happens and changes our mind?

Bx, I also want to share but no approval given. hehe. 
Qingling, this pregnancy also like that for me. Must keep eating every 2-3 hours, once got gastric juice/hungry, MS starts. I've also gained more for this pregnancy, already 7+kg so far and I'm only 6 months plus. Somemore MS longer, ended only at 16 weeks.

Qing ling, I booked appt with gynae on 23 Sept. Think will be about 7 weeks then, so should be able to see heartbeat. I also kan chiong and feel like going earlier but I keep telling myself no point to go so early. This time's MS is worse than my no. 1 :S
Diana, no condition. As per the website:
"An employee has full flexibility to use the childcare leave to spend time with his/her child. A child medical certificate is not required. "

diana - there's a form that your employer can submit to MCYS that requires all your particulars including marriage cert no.
maternity for contract workers
any mummies know whether if you're a contract worker (say 6 months or 1 year contract) you still get maternity?? i'm NOT the mystery mum hor, but there might be a contract opportunity coming up so just want to be sure..

oh qingling/iso - i'm not referring to sugarcane, it's in hokkien - happened to kids one - like got worms in the stomach.. would like to find out more info. cuz Shaun has been drinkin a lot of milk ( dunno why ). heard ppl said kam chek might cause a kid keeps getting hungry?

tong,
i think "kam chek" is just a term of endearment, not really that there are worms? if you suspect worms, the PD can verify.
maybe Shaun just going thru growth spurt?

In general, I think contract or freelance workers do not enjoy benefits that "perm" staff enjoy. Maternity is probably one of them. But it also depends on how generous the coy is - some MNCs for example transpose EU/US labour laws to Spore and give their contract workers the same benefits.
"kam chek" - I heard of it before. Think BX's definition is most accurate. maybe K also kamchek - after eating huge dinner, can still drink 240 ml of milk! But never put on weight - just went over 10 kg this month. *faint*

Oh dear. Kate drinks more than 600ml of milk a day. In fact, she finishes 1 tin of 1.6kg Mamil Gold in 12 days. I'm going broke!
She eats 2 bowls of rice with soup and kiam for lunch and dinner. Only brekkie she does not eat much - just nibble on cereal and fruit. She is only 10.2 kg!!! goodness, where is it all going??

yah i guess if the contract ends before birth then probably no ML. but wonder if the contract is like 1 year whether they will still give... oh well, maybe see if i even get offered a contract first!!

RaeAnne is also 10.5kg until now. Sigh, but she doesn't eat a lot unless it's junk food which we give her occasionally eg. ribena, prunes, biscuits. If she eats rice for dinner around 7pm, she can only drink only 160-180ml of milk.
Bx, oh no, hope Ashlynn is ok. Think can ask dermatologist for cream to reduce the scarring.

Ruth drinks only 120ml max, maybe 3/4 times a day. Sounds like she doesn't drink as much milk as most 'babies' here. sigh.
Ruth takes about 2 rice bowls of 'porridge' a day. Breakfast is always a struggle. So far she's doing ok with banana pancake or cakes.
Last measured..she was about 12.5kg, 86.5cm. Think she big-boned and lanky like her daddy.
