Am on for pj hunting!! But my office very far away from orchard leh.. at alexandra. Me have stopped myself from getting anymore baby clothes cos wah, really a lot now. Outstanding on my shopping list is the breast pump and cot sheets. Am looking forward to some pre-CNY sale
Hi Stephanie,
I am also looking at capella travel system. Finds that it is a combination ofcombi and aprica brands. Kinda like those but aprica has no travel system and combi range is limited as well. Dun like the graco travel system and realise that there are not many brands in spore carrying trvel system at the mid level buget. Bugaboo and quinny seems exp.

Simp: Capella range is limited here. Hv u try the baby kingdom? Went on the weekend & some models already out of stock. Gotta make reservations.
Steph: oh yes, cot sheets. I am waiting for sales to get babysafe mattress protector too. I only left PJs, then the little stuff like baby wipes, napkins, shampoos & such. Fighting with crowd is a chore. For me I will use my fren's BP first, then c how my breasts fare later. Heehee

Sputnik: hahaha.. I quite anal.. need to wear PJs to slp.
<font color="0000ff">Chewy</font>: Maybe we might meet each other at TMC. I should be taking single-bedded room. U?
<font color="0000ff">Sputnik</font>: I also not sure if I will wear only once or twice then throw aside cos I am a singlet and shorts gal.
<font color="0000ff">Simp</font>: We researched and played around with Capella S228 and Combi TJT Series and decided to get a Combi instead. Though Capella has similar functionalities with Combi, we made the following observations with Capella S228.
- cannot lock the stroller upon closure (need to fold in). If the wheels are initally unlock to swivel, you will need to position the wheel inplace before locking. If not able to position the wheel properly, it's difficult to fold the stroller. Inproper closure of stroller will reduce the life of the wheel.
- the Capella's metal does not look as steady as Combi's
- The cushion does not feel as good as the Combi's.
- lastly, it's cheaper than a Combi.
PS: I am not a diehard Combi fan and not insisting that you should buy it but I am just stating my user's experience with a Combi and a Capella at OG and Kids Mall

<font color="0000ff">Chewy</font>: I came back from M&S. The sale is ON. Dun really fancy those PJs with buttons and sleeves and it's expensive (around $2X). Those without buttons and sleeves are nicer, especially silky ones. Thinking of going to BLUSH or Women's Secret to take a look. Just realise that BLUSH at centrepoint had closed.

Gail: u can check w birth&beyond too http://www.birthandbeyond.com.sg/service.php?service=8
<font color="0000ff">Chewy</font>: yah.. can't find the store now. Maybe it has relocated somewhere in the building. Will chk it out during lunch tomorrow.
I am hoping for a natural delivery too. Yet to book a room now. Will probably check it out during Sat's visit to the doc. Fitball delivery room? what's that?

Sputnik: You are able to nurse with this PJ. Here's the description posted on the web.
<font color="0000ff">Maternity Mom & Newborn Sleep Sets</font>
- Mom gets a sleeveless top with ruffled lace trim and hidden slits for easy nursing. Comfy bottoms feature a softly elasticized waist with drawstring.
- Baby stays warm in a soft gown with an envelope neckline and gently elasticized hem. Printed trim and mittened cuffs coordinate with mommy's bottoms. Includes a matching beanie.

joelle,
How many nightgowns did you get?
What's a postnatal stretch mark cream?
calamari,
I'm gaining at about 2kg a mth. From pre-preg weight to now, about 4kg, cos I lost weight during the first trim. I get full/sick of the same taste easily. Thus, don't eat a lot at one go, but take many small meals.
geryl,
Me feeling anxiety rather than excitement. Cannot imagine how to go through labour..
Now watching ch 70 via mosiac menu.. haha
Ladies,
What are the benefits of yoga/fitball classes?
Jenny,
I don't think they sent out any mailers for the 30% sale. Only saw it fr the newspapers. The discount was in a form of rebate vouchers but not really worth it because u can't use these for promo items. Btw, I received mailer for this weekend's sale. Something like 20% for some items, and 15% on diapers.

tsukushi-i also did not get any mailer yet. Are there any interesting items for sale, or any $5 vouchers in the mailer?
Xiang - yeap, saw that the top is a nursing top. But I'm pretty small size, so not sure if even the XS can fit me, knowing how big the caucasian sizes are. Haha.....
Koori - Without the mailers still can go for the sale, provided we know wat are the sale items ;-) just that if they have the $5 voucher, then feel quite cheated....

tsukushi: Yoga classes help us to relax and more flexible, some moves help us to strengthen our legs in order to carry more weight. The breathing exercises prepare us for the pacing needed during natural delivery. i feel so much lighter and energized after each session. My class includes a 10 min rest, lying on our side with bolsters provided, tatz when the instructor's words lead u to connect ur mind with ur body, then concentrate & feel our babies.
Tsukuishi: yap heard abt it from my fren ... but i din rec'd any mailer at all!!! maybe later after check up will drop by to check it out ... heheheh those intend to buy some more things maybe can check it out ...
goodbabyb: 20% is for John Little this weekend starting today!

Good Morning to all
<font color="0000ff">Stephanie Lim</font>: you can park your car at the multi-storey carpark - Blk 74. Turn left when you turns into our estate. Let me know if you need further information as I am staying in the estate as well.
<font color="0000ff">Chewy</font>: I am not organising any private spree at the moment. Just close the GAP one. Maybe I will organise one after CNY.
Delivery room with fitball!!! Dun remember seeing it during the hospital tour. Need to pay additional cost?
<font color="0000ff">goodbabyb</font>: There are 2 models for TJT Series, TJT 350 and TJT450. So far, Cheong Choon quoted the lowest, TJT350 @ $460 and TJT450 @ $590.
<font color="0000ff">sputnik</font>: I am a small size gal too. Before preggy, ON's XS is abit big for me. Now preggy, XS is fine. You can check out the size chart for measurement.

Hi tsukushi
i bought 3 night gowns from JL
postnatal stretch mark creams are creams to target existing stretchmarks and tries to reduce/lighten it. on the other hand, some other creams are formulated to prevent marks from appearing.
Just for example:
