Felicia,
you always got alot of these sale lobang hor, thanks, i saw the swensen one last night at causeway point</font></font>
 
<font color="808080"><font face="tahoma">Hi,
can i check if any mummies have use Mamy Poko Value Pull Up Pants?wonder if quality is much lower than the normal pull ups as i saw the price was much cheaper, $6+ for M22, drypantz having promo $29.90 for 2 packs, M44 if not wrong, at NTUC</font></font>
 
Hi mummies,

do your babies grind their teeth? Lately Avril loves to grind her upper teeth with her lower teeth. How to stop it?
 
<font color="aa00aa">Ladies, i more aunty mah, so always go and search for lubang. hahaha.....
Actually some was forwarded to me by collegues/ friends. Then some i purposely go and look, coz weekend i cannot stay at home, must spend $$. muahaha.....

Veniz,
No prob. Lets arrange after my collegue back from her ML in another 2 weeks., less busy. hehe....</font>
 
Mummies with 2 or more kids

I have a very sensitive question to ask. When you gave birth to #2, did you immediately fall in love again with your #2? I feel very bad cos I keep telling HB that I love #1 so much that I have no room for #2 leh. I am so worried that I will not love #2 as much as #1.
 
Roxy,
I PMed you.
happy.gif
Thanks in advance. If I can find any other places that make sesame st theme, will fall back on Polar liao.
happy.gif
 
<font color="aa00aa">ndzgirl,
My ger only hv 2 lower tooth, so cannot grind. heehee....
As for your qn about #2, dont worry, by then u'll love ur #2 as much as #1. By then, u might think ur #1 very 'fan'. (at least it happen to me sometimes leh). Not that i love #1 lesser but you'll find very irritating when ur #1 start doing things that you dont like just to get ur attention. And when #2 come, u'll expect #1 to behave like a big sis or big bro thou she/he might still a young kid.
To me is a challenge with 2 kids and above lor. Btw, by the time u deliver #2, how many mths is ur #1?</font>
 
Fennie,
I bought from Bali the MP Pull Ups. Very good. It's the yellow packaging right? Can last BB from 10pm to 7am even though it is sodden. No leakage so far
happy.gif


My 2cents worth lah...

Roxy,
Can pls send me the pix with Sesame Street theme too? Have PM-ed u my email. Thanks!

So busy to keep up, only managed to post today...

ND's girl,
hmm, both me and hb found her cute ley.. cos she's like us.. both of us grind our teeth in our sleep...
happy.gif


btw, my daughter always bite whenever I wash her mouth and use the finger-toothbrush. On Mon night, she bent down and bit my thighs... sob sob... it's real painful lor..

<font color="aa00aa">Ritzy,
I gutton mummy, I tasted gwen’s medi &amp; her cough mixture tastes like raspberry. Her phlegm’s one tastes like lycee. Even I dun mind taking such medi…yummy yummy…
Yar, giving her lots of water &amp; some bb fruit juices as well. Hope to build up her vit c…

Tera,
So far, I ve no prob giving her medi, in fact tis am when I feed her, she gets so impatient &amp; keeps going “mummmm…mummmm…” non-stop…LOL…

Feifei,
Yar lor, e medi reai sweet sweet de…

Felicia,
Oh dear, reai hope yujie get well soon. Not too good to ve coughing for extended time ley. Yes hope all our bbs get well &amp; fit as fiddle soonest.
Nope, the one I went to in amk is not facing main road, it is facing the car park, next to a Singapore pool’s outlet, at 90 degree angle from courts. The clinic is SCBB (Singapore child &amp; bb clinic, or something).
My ex-colleague recommended me to go there cos it is the oni bb clinic covered by my company’s medical panel up to age 2yrs old. So in the meantime, I dun ve to pay $$ for her visits &amp; medi…kekekekee….But for gwen’s jabs, I still go to the Ooi’s bb &amp; child clinic at blk 400+ lar cos paid pkg there liao.

Burberry Sale!!! My fave brand…but I can oni go on sat if can convince hb to drive me there, noting sat is the last day, probably everything sold out liao.
sad.gif



Angel,
Yes, 1st time sick since birth (apart from the 1 time kenna KKH for no reason when 3 mths old) for supposed fits….arrrrgggggg…..my stupid pd at the last jab then tell me maybe she noted wrongly. I feel like retorting her tat “yeah, get my ger admit to KKH to be guinea pig jus cos u kan chong???” but I zipped my mouth shut lar cos dunno her to take it out on gwen during jabbing…


Sharon,
Thanks!
happy.gif
I hope so too….</font>
 
Wah jus back from lunch at swensen..beri crowded at Bishan ,filled wif aunties..noisy ..now having headache...
9 of us ate like mad...oni cost $98++
the 1 in 1 is worth leh...
happy.gif

now feel like sleeping...:p
 
Felicia
haha sometimes i already find my #1 irritating esp when she whines when she don't get her way. #1 will be 14 months when #2 arrives. So I think maybe she also dun understand what is jie jie &amp; mei mei. 1 child is challenge enough, I cannot imagine 2!

Warrior
I am guilty of teeth grinding in my sleep myself, but Avril grinds them when she's awake and the sound she makes is very unpleasant. Oh yes, Avril also bites me all the time.
 
ND's girl, dun worry lar, my #1 is still always whining, nagging to get to his own ways even now. He is 5 this yr. Haiz....
 
hi count and zuen.. forwarded you all the mail
happy.gif



hi crystal, hope gwen gets better soon!! Cough is one of the worst thing to be down with cause its so difficult to heal but im sure she will get better soon
 
<font color="aa00aa">roxy,
praying tat she gets better soon.

soya,

<font color="aa00aa">crystal,
Yup, i heartpain seeing YuJie still cough and running nose. If u saw my post about the lady doc in Dr Ooi's clinic, you'll know i actually feel so helpless (after weeks not recovered)tat i decided to brought YuJie to her, but she sounds that i'm a kiasu/ kiasi mother lor. Told her 2 weeks liao, she said 'normal'. *peng*

ndzgirl,
Dont hv to worry about the love part, but i tell you , most parent will show favouritism to their kids on later part. I heard this from my collegues. But i assume even so, we as a parent sure love all our kids de.</font>

For the AMK one, i know where is it, dont need to trouble you to pass me the details coz my MIL is seeing the eyes specialist there. Almost every mth or alternate mth will ned to go bak there for follow up. So everytime i'll tag along and wandering around tat area. hehe.....</font>
 
Hihi!

Jus came out from meeting!

Felicia: WOW! you got diary of all the sales events is it? hahahaha.. but thanks for informing us..

Sharon: if your ger is in pain then better to bring her to see PD..

Rizty: oops.. ya.. its immune system... haahaa..

Crystal: OMG! Why your PD so strange de? Can make this kind of boo boo meh? Even if she reali thot she made a mistake, she shouldn't say out loud to the parents loh.. make ppl upset onli..

But then again, its very difficult to say regarding babies, cos every small thing can be life-threatening.. but still very upsetting to know that your baby is warded for no good reason?!
 
veniz: oops.. missed your posting.. my confinement nanny was from malaysia.. she is very good, she encourages me to bf n can cook nice food too.. but a bit ex, $2k...

her name is zhen jie, hp: 00260162481200

its a malaysia no. so i jus called this no n can reach her liao.. hopefully your fren got no problem reaching her..


YUP!! next week is Mar hols!! Can can.. Let's meet for lunch.. ^_^ U taking leave during that week? I have been wanting to have lunch with u but no chance..
 
crystal,
wat happened to gwen? how come got sent to KKH? it was a mistake i guess?? :eek:

my 2 neices also go to SBCC at AMK. I also brought Lucas there a couple of times cos near my mum's place. according to my mum, dr koh there is good.

angel_z,
hehe, can see that u are "free-er" now eh. but hols still need to go back school or not?
 
<font color="aa00aa">felicia,
*nod nod*

angel,
stupid rite? &amp; who suffers? the poor bb &amp; parents lor. darn sickening...
hb &amp; me suspected she went overboard when the whole incident took place, tat's why we insist on discharge from KKH after 4days when they can find nothing wrong wif gwen after the tests but still wan to con't poking her, etc .The stupid hospital insisted we sign an idemnity form, which we did. our fears got cnf oni last mth when we visited her for gwen's supposed last jab when she commented in a off hand tone - "gwen growing very well, i think u guys can forget abt the hospital episode oreadi, maybe tat was a mistake..." i almost wanted to scream at her then but hb refrained me...

best is she can tell me dun need to go back for gwen's jab liao till after 1yr old but when paying, the nurse tells me dr foo made a mistake cos still have 1 more jab she forgot to give gwen, so must go back again...DARN!!!

maybe these incidents tat i encounter give u &amp; the gers a better insight into y all these while i had been reai pissed wif my PD...</font>
 
no wonder u so piss off.

So far i have brought yuzhe to the SBCC at TMC and at AMK. Found tat the one at TMC is better.

The Mr Koh u all refer is it the one who is more elderly/fatherly one?
 
tera: wahahaha.. ya loh... i'm free-er cos this week is doing summary n revision (less preparation compared to proper lessons)... ^_^ yaya.. next mon n tues i'm still going to school for remedial lessons.. hopefully wed to fri i'm 'free'...

crystal: wa.. your PD is very old is it? she seems very absent-minded eh... but difficult to change PD now right cos gwen's records are there.. but this PD reali CMI leh.. i wouldn't be comfortable to entrust my baby to her..

and i find she quite irresponsible n not professional leh.. how can anyone jus make an off hand comment to parents saying that the 4days of hosp stay is JUS a mistake?! sheryl been to KKH for 3 days and i can understand the fear, agony n pain of hosp stay.. wa.. i would be very very upset if the doc were to tell me its all a mistake..

but its ok.. its all over now.. the most impt thing is that gwen is healthy n well.. cool down, k? heehee..
 
<font color="aa00aa">tera,
the KKH epi happens in Aug 08 (last yr) just after ND. my MIL then insisted tat gwen has a runny nose, must bring c doc (although hb &amp; me dun think so lar). at the pd, gwen suddenly like stare into blank space &amp; no matter wat the pd say also wun response. so the pd - Dr Foo called for an ambulance &amp; reporting to KKH as bb suffering from fits. 1st time in my life i had to take an ambulance &amp; on my own somemore cos hb was having nite class tat day. i was so scared. once at kkh, the A&amp;E team took over &amp; poke her, draw blood, draw fluid, wan to do lumber puncture on her spine, do brain scan, etc. in a nutshell, they cant find anything wrong wif her after 4 days + all the tests, they still dun wan to discharge her, so hb &amp; me insisted at all cost for discharge. all in all, gwen is ok after all but was badly trumantise by anyone who is dressed in a white cloak or dress &amp; took hb &amp; me a long time to slowly build back her cheery self.
it was a very painful &amp; heart wrenching epi so previously when christina talk abt chloe's incident at KKH, i can fully empathise wif her...</font>

http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/578191/1739635.html

<font color="aa00aa">turn out when my MIL went &amp; check wif those spiritual leaders, they told her is because she brought gwen out during the 7th mth &amp; while walking thru a dark carpark, one of those "dirty" things went &amp; disturb gwen lor, causing her to stare into blank space,etc. so after praying, gwen was ok. i dun usually believe in such stuff but b/w fearing if gwen had fits then vs kenna "dirty" stuff, i rather take the latter cos to me, it is the lesser of the 2 evils....anyway all is in the past now...my MIL did apologise cos for once, her son was really upset wif her then....sorry for being long-winded....</font>
 
recently no see cactus online.. strange.

last week she said want to meet me, but in the end didn't meet up cos she said need to do errands.
 
<font color="aa00aa">angel,
cooled now liao. now i counting down the mths when i dun ve to bring gwen to her for jabs, i can celebrate liao. no wonder the clinic wan us to pay upfront for pkg jabs - to retain the parents...
the PD not old lar, oni in her 40s if mine agar-ation not wrong. but yes, i agree wif u tat she totally not professional at all. tat time i went to her cos my MIL insisted tat she is very good cos my elder nephew was seen by her 9yrs ago. bad mistake...

star,
wat happen? yur PD did something to hanhan? can share? nah, i need to take PD's words as pinch of salt nowsaday. i trust my own consel wif frens, research &amp; maybe if necessary seek 2nd PD opinions.

ellysia,
agreed if it is reai fits, then it is an emergency but in my case, it was an error &amp; to hear it from your own PD months after is really an understatement! like star mentioned, u reai feel like strangling the PD.</font>
 
crystal: but staring blankly = fits meh? i thot fits is more than jus staring blankly?

ya la.. jus glad its all over.. huh? when i saw gwen last xmas, she looks so active n happy baby.. aiyo.. must be very sad to see her traumatised by this...

u got consider change PD?
 
chris,
oh that time i MIA from here so din know wat happend. oh dear, gwen was only 3 mths old then right?
sad.gif
it must have hurt a lot to see her go thru all those unnec pain/trauma. this pd is really CMI!! how can be so careless?!! aiyo, let's hope u quickly finish up ur pkg and stop seeing her.
 
<font color="aa00aa">angel,
as a 1st time parent, i didnt know so when the PD kan cheong &amp; even w/o consulting me, just simply dial 999 for ambulance, i ve no choice but to went along. i remember insisting i didnt wan gwen to go KKH cos my admin ger then happen to ve a bad experience there. i wanted to head back raffles for the PD's opinion there but tis dr foo says no, must oni go KKH....the rest is history liao.

of cos ve consider to chng PD but paid up to almost $1K for a jabs already in pkg, how to chng? will ve to forfeit the $$ ley. so now i oni go to her for jabs. if need medical consulation, i go to SBCC.

tera,
yes, 3 mths old oni. i still ve her "poked" pics in my thumbdrive at home, show u tomolo...one of them is in fb though although u ve to look closely to know which one...</font>
 
ND girl, really he is sure a naggy boy. Just for eg yesterday, I wanted him to come home (hb attending PT class, normally he will stay in grandma house, but I wanted him to come home to bond with him)he refused and kept saying he wants to stay there. As he always use this tactic to get his own way, I was rather firm, saying no. He went to my MIL for help. I said no, have to go home. No choice, he kept on and on about it, saying he does not like me, ahma, ahgong, daddy, etc etc. I said not their faults, I just want him home. My MIL face black black, when we got down the car, he made noise again. FIL scolded me said 'Aiya! Let him stay lar!' I said no, go home. so MIL threw him outside (as she was pissed off with me) and I just told son to hold my free hand to walk to lift. But once at home, he is ok, coz I have to find things to please him (let him eat nice food and watch baby vcd with his sis). YOu have to meet him to know how naggy he can be....

Angel, thanks for the contact. Next Thursday you can join for lunch? We lunch at Holland Village's Amici Restaurant want or not? Calling Iamsnow, MLP, Shern and Soyabean! Next Thurs, 19th Mar, we lunch at holland v, you all want to join in?
 


crystal,
