babycupid,
wah, I think your agency is real exp. I called up more than 10 agencies to check out the prices. some agencies even quote me $450 for an exp maid. I think some agencies are litterally 'extorting'.
I'm using Jolly agency. They have one branch in chinatown, the other in toa payoh. their no is 62530003.
this agency is one of the more afforable in terms of agency price and maid salary. their service is very good also. and their maid quality is not bad. I quite like their service. but my maid has not come yet. that one really depends on luck already.....

ya, seems like this 2 days din heard from ZuEn, wonder where she is.
Morning ladies, Feifei and Felicia. Me also early in office nowadays. If our company have flexi-hours will be good for us.
Anyway, Felicia, I think for guys they should be ok after they got sick, just take time. My hb also like yours, if sick its like a big bomb once a year. He can stay in bed for several days one. Your Hb will be fine soon.
I just do a random check, does anyone of you eat outside steamboat (mala) while preggie? I have been craving for steamboat since sunday, but not sure if I should go and eat. coz if I dun eat it this week, I dun think will have the chance since tummy getting bigger with lesser food intake space, and next time with #2, not much chance to go out makan.

Veniz,
Steamboat har! I ate before but not those mala type. I ate those satay celup at Malacca. That was about 2-3mths back when i had great craving for that. And i ever queue for almost an hour just for that. I think as long as the food is well cooked shldnt pose any risk.

Felicia, bizznow & morraine, thanks for the info. Mor, I wanted to try chongqing, but till now still no chance to eat. I am thinking of going to one szechuan mala steamboat restaurant at Smith Street. My sworn gor gor craving for the sweet potato noodles (no, he is not pregnant, haha) and my own younger bro craving for authentic steamboat for months. I got the influence bugs from them.
Felicia, tell me about queuing, I can queue about an hour to get my fav porridge at market every mth, about 1 to 2 hours for my fav Jap Food, etc, even when preggie. My friends call me foodie siao.
Ah mor, the chongqing you go, isit the Tanglin shopping centre one? Need to reserve if go at 7pm for 2 or 3 pple or not?
Liew, haha, all your food got absorbed by your gal mah, that's why you never put on weight.

Felicia, so sad you missed out the seafood makan trip. Well, I am sure your hb will also want to bring you there once he is much better. Haha, buffet, can go Shangri la's The Line to eat. I heard its not bad, but yet to go there makan.
TF, I think the bi-weekly visit starts from 30th week on (3rd tri) then the last 4 weeks is like weekly. My baby's position seems different from a few days ago, she keeps fidgetting on my right tummy, I scare she goes breech and there goes my plan for normal delivery.
Ellysia, I yet to post what is in the TMC book for breastfeeding & childcare (both books have informative pictures for us to follow). You still interested to know?
