Littlebluey,
my co. has no tolerance for that.. cant even use earphones to listen lor... so no choice.. i used to listen in my ex co. and felt so bored when i first joined here!!
Trace,
wah... really seems serious leh...
Phtanus,
its so sickening that they chopped u cos u were TTC-ing!!! i think we women are very ke lian.. we are expected to do well at work and at home.. but yet, when we are having kids... all the previous achievements or accomplishments are often overlooked or forgotten (conveniently!)...
its really hard to accept, but it is really how the corporate world is like.. :S sigh...
although, there are also many pro-family companies out there.. just that not all of us are lucky enough to be in 1..

Rachel's mummy
sorry to hear about Rachel's condition. Hope everything will be okay for her.you take care of yourself.
busybee
maybe you wanna consider avent manual?..it is very good and economical. cuz it's very very painful if you are caught with engorged breasts but no pump. good to get one before hand, not necessary electric one.
everafter
i'm having the same prob, full body ache. cant sleep on the mattress cuz it's too soft. i use the osim massage before i go to sleep on the floor. it helps. been sleeping almost like a log since (if not for the screaming of my gal in the middle of the nite)

Hi, sorry to intrude. I'm selling three books produced by Thomson Medical Centre, written by lactation consultant Mrs Wong Boh Boi. Titles are Childbirth, Childcare and Breastfeeding. Books are brand new, selling as I have an extra set. Very informative for new mothers especially the content is written in Singapore context. Pls send me a PM if interested. Thanks!
forest,
let me check on the shipping charges and i'll get back to you. Will be pretty busy at work this week so will try to find out when I get the chance to.
icylemon,
Be strong. I will pray for lil Rachel.
everafter,
I go for pre-natal massage at Rustic Nirvana. Not too bad.
Buffy,
I'm also thinking of signing up for hypnobirthing but I had a friend who raved about it cos she went for the classes but ended up opting for epidural. heehee!

Hi Phtanus
Me also encountered the same thing. Was being offered a job by some stat board. Then when they knew tat i was preggie, they told mi its better for mi to rest at home, not tat they dun wanna hire me, but my health more important etc etc. At first i took it very hard, but well...on 2nd thoughts I convinced myself that perhaps its better that i stay home and rest and 'yang tai'

!
Yesterday was very stressful for us cos my son suddenly rejected milk. He rather went on a hunger strike than to drink milk. We tried all ways to give him his milk and ended up, have to give him cereals instead which he finally ate it. By then, it was around 11pm liao! </font>

Good Morning Mummies!! ~
Finally today is the day... my new house going "dong tu" liaoz... Heeheheehe!!
Mousebb, maybe ur son did not have a filling meal in the day time and he is sick of milk. I had a friend whose bb also like that... so what she did is she gave him a bit of cereal first then follow by milk before he sleeps and it works! for my boy, he rather had milk than cereal. I remember that my boy is not a cereal baby.. he wanted to have porridge rather than cereal.

We give him porridge twice a day, morning and late afternoon. Since he was on semi-solid, his milk intake has reduced to less than 600ml most of the days. Yesterday, he only drank 300ml (2 feedings only). When he was younger, he was a milkaholic and can drink as much as 1 litres when he was just 3 weeks old. During that time, I was worried that we had overfed him but his PD assured us that it is perfectly alright to give him whatever amount he wants cos he will eventually come to a point when my son will decide the amount he wants to drink everyday. Come to think of it now, he used to cry badly for milk last time but now, we have to beg him to drink his milk!
Haiz! I guess as parents, we always have to worry for our children esp when they are not eating well...</font>

Hi Mint!
My SIL also went for it and she found the breathing techniques very useful as she was able to ride thru the contractions very well and hwe labour was very short. LIke your friend, she went for Epi 'cos she had to do a sweep and then induced 'cos she is strep B positive...
For my case, I went for the 'taster' session and found that the concept seems pretty logical. Am looking at it as a means to equip myself to go through stage 1 of the birth better and the experience more pleasant lor. If end up with drug free, thats an additional plus. Otherwise, it is fine with me.
You went for any taster yet? I just signed up and my first lesson is this Sun.

yup, some clothes i bought at the beginning of maternity cannot wear liao... and i thought those will last me all the way to the end.
but the arm area either too tight or the tummy area too tight. and i find it's v impt to be comfortable when preggie so buying more... some pasar malams sell quite cheap dresses in comfy material so that's another cheap option.
