Cath,
The hotslings are pouch with padded sides which i think MIM also sell but nicer design. Initially i also wanted to buy an additional one from them again on the pastel colour but then again i think, i alreadi have a pouch, shd try something diff. So now deciding to get a bn sling from mim or preloved from the wts thread.
Hmm pouch is clean cut and easily to keep and fold. Not as roomy and adjustable as sling. Must get the rt size in order for u to maximise the item. Initially everybody tell me my pouch too small for me then i also suspect it is true. However now i dun think so as it hasnt given me shoulder or back ache. Maybe i havnt use for very long time like 2 hours or more. I find that it is gd to hold and keep bb in a hip carry position and maybe when she is bigger back carry position. I have seen jap mummies using them as hip carry on their toddler girls.
Price is abit pricey but compensated by their nice design. U can go try MIM pouch during their promotion booth/cheng cheong store (dun know can try anot) and decide if u want to get pouch from maternalove. Maybe u can try also during the mummy's gathering before u decide. For me, now am a happy mum using the pouch on my ger. Now join Sherin's team loving pouch. I also like carrier. Now onli havnt try sling. Maybe i shd try sling during the gathering and decide if i want to get one from MIM.

Jaspire, add me for the GD support group !!! been using for my girl since she is 3 weeks old. Shall we start a new thread?
Lynn, i'm not sure if i'm considered as to have successful established a bedtime routine. I've gone back to work already. My girl is with my mum. Every evening i go there for dinner then bring her home. Will reach home about 9pm. Will bathe her then spend some time with her. Her milk time is usually 10 or 1030pm. After her milk time, i'll put her to sleep. She will sleep until 7am in the morning when i wake her up for her morning bath.
tsukushi (makino), why u want to get sling frm zolowear? seen it before but so ex!!! prefer making it myself. hee. If you guys wants to make pouches, i can offer my help! hee! I love brocades, very pretty! I think some of u saw me using that black and silver roses one. Actually for pouches, they can be used like baby carriers also, need not be in the cradle position.
Re: Swimming
Need someone to volunteer e pool for swimming session!! My girl just went swimming at my hubby's aunt's condo pool last weekend. Today went huaxia coz our package is still uncomplete.

Burpy babe,
What I do is the put bb upright, resting his head near my shoulders. Then, using one hand to support him, and another hand to open up the pocket of the sling. Then slide baby into the pocket and adjust. Find it a bit hard to put him into a cradle position cos his body seems to 'curve' around my tummy. Upright position is easier for the baby-wearer to move around too.
Jaspire/Sherin,
Want to add a new facebook group for GD support grp?
Sherin,
Heard that their shoulder is comfortable and the rings are easy to adjust and doesn't slip. And the designs are cool! My MIM sling slips. I saw this Sakura Bloom slings too, but way too expensive for me. I'm not a sewing person, don't know how to make the sling. Yup I saw your pouch from the photos. Very outstanding! But I don't know how to use a pouch. Heard that the pocket is not as deep as a sling so I don't dare to try a pouch. Actually, someone showed me how to use a sling before, thus I have some morale boost from the demo. Maybe when I meet you in person next time, you can teach me how to use a pouch?
Re swimming,
I'm thinking of bringing bb to the safra pool when the huaxia package is used up. How long does a baby's thermal suit last? will bb outgrow the suit as fast as he outgrows the clothings?

Huggies pampers
Just to share with mummies here. I have a friend who can help me get Huggies pampers at $13 each pack. Any range at this price. But he only can send to my home as he is only helping me to get. No delivery included. Collection place has to be at my place at Bedok South.

Re: Swimming Pool
I can volunteer my condo pool but dunno whether its convenient for you all or not. I am staying at Jurong East. Want to make it one of these saturdays? However next Sat I cannot, going to Sentosa for the weekend.
Re: Mucus
I used a battery-operated nasal aspirator to suck out my baby's mucus and pee sai. First, I drip a drop of saline (salt water) into each nostril, then suck out using the aspirator. You can get the aspirator from Robinsons. Brand is BebeSounds. Think $69. I find its more effective than the manual ones.

Re: Swimming
Btw, my condo has a landscape pool, a baby pool (wading pool) and a children's pool with slides. However, I recall reading somewhere that its safer for babies to go into swimming pool after 1 year old due to chlorine in the pool and temperature of water. (??)

Puffish, the english set cost $570 and Maths set cost $380. However, the english set is now selling $630. $570 was the price before the price increase. If you are buying direct from GD Baby. Do speak to Daryl and tell him you are recommended by Joanne and see if he can offer you at the old pricing of $570. Wish you luck!
RE: Cradle cap
You can apply baby oil or olive oil on baby's head, let it soak for a while or at least 30 mins before combing the head. Then wash it off.

angel, baby kayla's heat rash took so so long to clear wor. She started since she is 2wks old.
Tks, she is getting better. Just hope she gets well soon cos she needs to go for her jab. PD told me to postpone her jab till next wk when she is better.
Re: Diapers
Have been using cloth diapers since she is NB. Only last week we changed to use bumwear, however we do not use the bumwear inserts as find it too thick and it is placed inside so worried easily dirty. So we use the traditional cloth diaper and put it on the bumwear. Hee... the bumwear acts like the panty loh. So far so gd. Will only start using the inserts when she poos lesser, right now still alot wor.

huggies ultra: not cheap and not very good. thick compared to mommy poko and pampers. poop poop goes all the way up the back, sometimes stains clothes - happens once every other day or so.. but least it didn't give my girl any diaper rash, gotta finish the pack bought at motherhood exhibition, sianz.
