<font color="ff6000">Ribena,
My bb also moving quite a bit! esp around 4:30-5:30pm... like telling me to go home soon. I read that sometimes regular movements might be bb hiccuping! so cute! and they don't feel uncomfortable when they hiccup.
The Medela pump selling for $590 in Tangs is the Medela PIS original, not the Advanced. think i saw it recently there.
Whitepaper,
nice names! I like the word Autumn in chinese, but qiu1 sounds a bit ancient. Having a bit of headache on chinese names. Thinking of Kai (as in kang1 kai3) ning (as in ning2 jing4). Or Qiu1 Yun4 (as in Shi1 Yun4 poem).
Gals,
Hubby and I have decided on "Kate" as the english name!
Mspiggy,
my order is correct, looking forward!</font>

Is foreign nurses bad?

dimpletot,
Wat's the difference between original and advanced?
Hee.. toking abt bb's movement, my bb wil be excited and move a lot when she heard daddy's voice. and when daddy put his ears at my tummy, she will kick him. Happen quite a few times already. so fun.
Think they are learning to drink water tat's why they got hiccups. Feel heart pain when we noe that bb is feeling uncomfortable.

I'm looking for electric one cos I hope to be able to breastfeed on a longer term. Where can I find Ameda ones? I'm not so keen with Avent products cos only their bottles are suitable for their own use right. I have purchase mainly pigeon products
little almond,
hee hee, i don't mind eating mangoes - you're making me crave for them... send some over haha!
Ribena,
I found some info here. http://www.amazon.com/Pump-In-Style-Advanced-Breastpump/dp/B00016BPA2
Editorial Review
The most important difference between the Medela Pump in Style Advanced model and the Original is that the Advanced pump includes a pretty remarkable feature that actually mimics a baby’s nursing rhythm by pumping in two distinct modes: let-down and expression. In the first few moments of nursing, babies initiate faster milk flow by suckling rapidly. After the flow is established, baby switches to slower, deeper suckling for maximum milk flow in less time. The "Natural Expression" system simulates this two-stage pattern for a highly efficient, effective pumping experience. In other ways the pump is similar to the also first-rate Original: a stylish and professional looking black shoulder bag houses the pump with adjustable speed and vacuum control, along with battery pack, AC adapter, four bottles with lids, bottle stands, "PersonalFit" breastshields, removable cooler carrier with ice packs, bottle holder, extra storage pockets, and a built-in picture frame for a photo of your pride and joy. The advanced model also includes CSF breastmilk bags, a padded carrier case for the battery pack, and a removable motor bag. --Emilie Coulter

Juz me
Nice to see u here. Me oso had a hard time on my baby's name with my hubby. We even argued on the names. He like i dun like, if not, i like he dun like. Nearly gave up. I dunno how i came across this name-- Claudia and I like it so i casually told him and he told me he likes it too. So, we got it.
My fren was telling me that if me and my hubby cant decide on the name. Both of us can go to the same website (for the list of babies' names) and we both write down the names that we both like. But we cannot peek into each other's list until when we are done. Then we can do a comparison and see if there's a name appearing in my list and his list. Then we shall decide on that.
Tracee,
Most likely will opt for the confinement food there.

Sorry leh, I work in the East.
Oh talking about bottles, I got a Dr Brown and one Tommee Tippee bottle at the expo fair. I wonder if any mummies know that Tommee Tipee bottles are BPA free??
Cos I thought of getting tat range, since they say the teat is manufactured in a way similar to a mummy's nipple, so that bb will be familar wif the teat..something lik tat.

Ribenali, i heard form my friend that if you buy the medela PIS, the warranty does not apply internationally. My friend say if you bring the breast pump that bought in US for service in medela spore you need to pay $100, but for breast pump bought in spore u pnly need to pay $50. I dun know how true is it, only heard from friend, never check personnally.
Currently i habe the medela mini electric (used one from my sis in law), so I plan to use that during my maternity leave then will but the PIS if i decide to continue breastfeeding when back to office.
Just think that if we buy now but at the end cant breast feeding for long then it will be waste of money ...

My gynae's nurse told me some docs may have problems communicating with those foreign nurses from Philipine and China. So may not be good if the gynae has communication problem with the nurses..results may be disastrous for us!!..

i din see the tommy teppee bottles at the Expo. But I bought some BPA free bottles called Everflo. The bottles are tinted and have a lot of colors to choose from. They also have glass bottles but very heavy wor. Hmmm actually I heard that Avent is not too bad also . Just that its not BPA free. Aiyo so many choices to make leh.

my friend bought an expensive pump...medela i think. End up she could not breastfeed because of crack and sore nipples, plus fever etc. So in the end, she gave up after 3 weeks. Sometimes what u expect may not be what u get. My gut feel is to buy later or maybe just get a manual one first. I got my medela electric pumps from my SIL so not intending to get new ones
