catherine: yaa..heartburn feel very uncomfy one. Plus tummy feel so tight! Being a mom is really not easy but is very worthwhile when you see your healthy little one!
jo: My gynae *thinks* my weight gain is still ok cos i didnt gain much during first few mths.. so now can have some buffer zone. So think if u gain alot since pregnancy, then gynae will advise u to watch wat u eat..
I ate alot in japan but this time weight goes to me cos bb is only x2 bigger of last mth.. which is normal..

hmmm...but if u got high fever, then i think best to get the appropriate meds lor. High body temp is not good for the bb inside.
<font color="0000ff">Catherine</font>
hee...me also dunno where it is retailing now. oh Best Denki don't have now? few months back, a fren told me got. maybe not many ppl buying, thus they stop selling..?
haha...me all along don't like to eat cockles. so eating char kway tiao now is still shiok for me...keke. Especially now i'm in KL, i like KL's one better then SG. thus cannot resist eating at least once.

Hi Storeberry,
My tummy was quite small at 22 weeks.. in fact only last week (25 weeks) that I start to feel that it's showing. Thou relatives and friends still feel that the tummy is small. But as long as bb is healthy. And they say last trimester it would just balloon out very fast.. so enjoy the mobility now

Hi thanks for the reassurance Catherine!! Yah as long as bb is healthy I m ok.. Just that there is this pregnant friend also (8mths)& hers is very big so I always kena compared with her tum-tum.. Haiz...
Storeberry,
Don't worry..if I remember correctly, my tummy at 22 weeks was nonexistent to outsiders.
Now I'm 25-26 weeks already and tummy is showing but my mum still say it's very small. Everytime see other pregnant ladies, all also much bigger than mine. So my hubby always comment "you lose again!" On the other hand, my bb is way above avg in size...so I also dunno where he's hiding!

Hisstory,
yaya.. i oso dun dare to buy those frm the supermarket. I dun even dare to buy those supermarket off shelf salmon sushi anymore.
same as u, i nv weigh myself at home anymore after my 3kg weight gain in 20th weight.
So scare to see the increase but luckily, this time round, my weight maintain the same.
mulberry,
I also a SAHMTB, hope to breastfeed mayb till 10 mths if my milk supply allow. haha.
But i've read that its difficult to lose the weight after 4th to 6th mths. So i guess the only way for us to lose weight will b exercising.
Valnsw,

Snow74,
I read from the babymall site under common questions and shipping outside US is on a case-by-case basis. So might need to check if they allows shipping to S'pore. The stuff are rather low in prices, good bargains.
Joanne,
where u get all the carter baby clothes. I went Shanghai in Nov 07, actually tat time already conceived by dunno yet so din shop for any baby clothes. If I had known.....

U applied any cream to ease the muscles? *sayang* tonight ask ur HB to massage for u k
Oic, hmm.. Can u take the fish oil capsules, in this case? I think the cockles are half-cooked, they only throw in when the noodles are going to be served. I think preggy ladies can still eat cockles, but must specify they want them fully cooked
There's this site, Children's Place, for baby stuff, quite cute.. Dunno if it accepts SG cc for payment, i think can, coz some mummies are conducting sprees.

cindy,
its called ni hong children market or sth like that, but im sure its ni hong something. Its near to the time square. Its an indoor mall that sells all children stuff. My HB kept saying its so cheap so kept buying n buying. And the quality is good, its real Carter and not imitations, Carter stuff are made in China. So anyone who goes to Shanghai really shd go there.

Oops, I posted too late and missed your earlier post.
Sorry can't remember but Time Square is in Pudong or Puxi? and when you say Ni Hong Market is in indoor mall, meaning it's those air-con shopping mall and not those in the open streets?
Sorry for the many questions.
medusa,
Yup got your PM. THanks.
Re: leg cramps
learnt from antenatal class to elevate your legs on pillows to drain the fluids and if possible, get your hubby to help you stretch your legs. Get him to align his lower arm from the heel of your foot and up to the feet and make the whole foot straight. You shd feel stretching of your lower calf

hisstory,
I heard some people saying drypers not so gd i.e. don't like the sticky tape that adheres to the diaper and some babies don't take to drypers as the material not soft enough and hv nappy rash.
But then again, some babies are ok with Drypers.
Generally Mamy poko is softer and better comments.
Perhaps you can get a small pack of drypers to test and if your baby can take to drypers then continue with it.
alternatively, can use drypers in the day and use Mamy poko at night. That's what some people are doing.

snow74,
I also cramp last nite. 2nd nite in a row but it's not those very severe ones. just mildly. my cousin told me when crap dont rub, just straighten and let the pain go away. if u rub, then next day will be more painful and will come back.
krex,
the repayment usually is cos when the maids come they took a loan and owe the agency a certain amt, so the employers will pay for her and deduct from her salary. So the maids usually 1st 6 mths no salary cos have to pay the employer back for what we repay for her. only after that then she will get paid.
any MTB intend to use cloth diapers ?

im not sure too le, just came across the site so tot i'll just mention it since snow talked about not being able to use sg cc on some us sites..
Val,
Times Square is in PuXi and so is Ni Hong market, if i rem correctly, its just opposite. Ni Hong is an indoor air conditioned mall, but not like ur high class shopping centre..its more like qi pu lu kind but its a one level building. Its enough to shop for hourss, spent more than 5 hours there cos my purpose was to get baby clothes so bought n bought. Cost between SGD4 to 5 each for a carter romper. We took cab there twice and the cabby knew when we said Ni Hong children market, so i think shouldnt b too diff to find.
