[lovedogs]

[tunapuff77]

Pkum,
Yes agree with happy, better to invest in a gd thermometer, they can last a long time.
Saw from newspaper advertisement Guardian Pharmacy selling Braun theroscan at $129.90, free a box of disposable caps. Usual price is $149.90.

Morning, ladies. Very tired..Feel like taking the afternoon to go home to rest. Backache and sleepy.

Milderina,
I've cut my hair abt 2wks ago when there's a promo. Guess I will cut my hair again b4 delivery.

Olwen,
That time weather too hot till I cannot tahan plus there's promo $8.80 for cut + wash + blow. I grabbed the chance. Hehe.

Fifi,
Saw ur message posted. I will ask my sis to collect from u on sunday. After I've confirmed wif her, then let u know.

RE:MIL,
I agree with alibaba, less communication better. Luckily my MIL is looking after my BIL's kids so she can't help me with confinement. So, I can't leave bb with her to look after. :> Luckily, when we got the hse, she wanted to stay with us. I told my husband NO WAY. Now we are not staying with her, she already boss my hse.
Rearrange my kitchen stuff, man's clothes must hang abv woman's in the wardrobe, cannot mix man and woman clothes to wash, woman's underwear wash separately...Some I agree, some i dun. I only tell hubby then he will tell his mum. hehe.

 

[tunapuff77]

Hi everyone!

I know this is not exactly the place to post about dog adoption but I'm trying all avenues available.

There's a 2 year old black cocker spaniel boy up for adoption. He has been sterilised and is very sweet natured. He has a sad childhood story and definitely deserves a loving and kind home.

If you know of anyone who might be interested, please contact me at [email protected] please. I would be most happy to provide more information and details.

Thank you!

[galaxgal]

Hi Fifi,

Hope you are feeling better.

Is there another day I can collect from you at Redhill as Sunday, I can't make it at 11am? Try eating oranges. My mum told me that eating oranges helps to relieve migraine..no harm trying!!! Your hubby sure will pass his test!!!!

 

[galaxgal]

Hi bear, Thanks for the updated list!

Enne: Nursing cover are very useful when BF outside..can consider buying one...The price is considered cheap already compared to outside...I bought mine already from mumsfairy....

Milderina: it's so nice to see you posting new links for us to spree on..hahaha it has been a long long time since you last posted a link!!! itchy eyes and hands rite!!!!

Alibaba: how are you feeling since our last conversation? is your rib cage still pain? you might want to see your gynae and see what he or she says...cause it seems quite some time already..i fear you might have a strain.

Yen: tradional ladies are like that...they were talking about not mixing men's clothes and woman clothes together..even when drying on the bamboo pole, you must not put lingerie and undies in such a way that it will be right above the man when he walk past ...aiyoh..so many restricitons...for me, my hubby and I never follow...hahah....but undies must wash separately , i think i agree with that lah...hahah..well, I also try not to talk too much to my MIL, talk more, more conflict...just smile...needs to talk then talk.

Haru!!!: glad you got your baby cot finally!!! i dun mind topping for a nicer bedding set..soemtimes in the package, the set are not so nice...

Fifi-Thanks!! how much to pay u?? I transfer to u ok? whats ur bank acct no. How much including postage??

alibaba-Sorry I'm lost in the archives, what happen to u??

Pkum-You shd invest in a good thermometer, I got the Braun ear Thermometer think for $100+ but its worth lo.. coz esp when bb down with fever(touchwood) or else after injections we also need to monitor.

 

[haru]

hi Bear,
yup, got the white one. er, but the lady did not mention anything about upgrading the mattress leh. Its $359 which incl the mattress and the bedding set.Coz we chose another design, had to top up $50.

blessedmum,
ya, we all looked at e bedding set that they included in e set and there was a moment of silence.hahah.. coz seemed quite oh piang to us.somemore hubby and i very particular about design one. sometimes we buy pdts just solely coz of packaing. so can imagine la..

Milderina,
wah, i also tempted to get the nursing wrap oh. dunno e material good or not..any other mummies also keen?kekek..

 

[enne]

Chillipadi-how's ur maid today? still showing black face?.

olwen-sorry din catch ur reply yesterday, I wanna keep the 'Rui' as in 'rui zhi de rui', my boy name end with 'Yang' as in 'hai yang de yang'. If I got a girl I will call her RuiHan but well cannot use this time round. kekeke.

 

[olwenlim]

*yawn* me back from nap. woke up to the sound of my mum grumbling to her sisters abt her children. duh. my mudder speaks so fast & she talks continuously for 15 mins non-stop. i wonder whether my aunts managed to get any word in or not.

 

[haru]

Re:thermometer
i have yet to get a thermometer. do we need to get one specially for infants?

 

[enne]

haru-ME ME! but I don't know will I really use it anot. hehehe.

 

[enne]

haru-Yes.. u shd invest in a good one.

 

[enne]

olwen-You woke up liao!! How are u feeling?? Are you counting down week by weeks already??.. Hee..

Chillipadi-Wah just read abt ur HB longgggggg name.. haha.. what is Megan-Beth and Emma-Jane full name?? Also as long??

 

[greengrape]

Afternoon...

When to see Gynae and GD test yesterday.
Baby weigh 1kg at 26 weeks.

Just received news that my GD test result is out and I need to see a dietician. Been informed the rate of failing the test is 16%. Anyone has more information about it?

 

[enne]

GreenGrape-1kg at 26weeks is a good weight rite? Last week my baby weigh 888g at 25weeks.
Sorry I don't know much abt GD test, think most mummies went lunching liao.. hee..

 

[olwenlim]

Yen: what kind of lobang is tt? $8.80 only??? i also want. went last week, cost me $20 for wash & cut.

alibaba: u getting to be workaholic like Bear! go home, go home.

enne: ok, me go c. your son's name starts w same 2 words as my husband. zhang rui something. nice leh. when he was born, his great grandfather looked at him & said he was v heaty so the last word in his name is 清 qing with the water element. i read in the book last nite tt if your baby appears to lack any of the elements earth, fire, water & metal, a word in his name carrying this element will help to balance him out. maybe u can choose 4 words & when he is born, see which one he needs most then settle on tt one.

ok, smells like lunch is ready. me go eat first. come back later.

sigh, got to coach the monster for his chinese test. i hate this chinese teacher, always giving tests.

 

[enne]

olwen-oh.. hmm.. okie.. hope ur monster passed his chinese test!!

 

[olwenlim]

enne: u didn't go for lunch yet?

greengrape: don't worry so much abt the GD test hor? a few gals here went & all cleared it. but wow, your baby is big all right. gosh, if my babies all tt size, i think i cannot go thru the door now.

hungry. me go sniff for food.

 

[greengrape]

Enne

My gynae just told me 1kg at 26 weeks is an average weight. Not sure if it is a good weight.

 

[olwenlim]

enne: he is really lousy in chinese. can even get 10/30 in one test. pri 1 only leh. but there r times he can get full marks for ting xie 听写. all my mum's effort. sigh. school is v pressurising nowadays.

 

[enne]

olwen-not yet, think when the others back, I be gone. hehe.. gogogo makan first, ur bbs are hungry!

GreenGrape-my gynae also din say anything abt big or small, just say bb size ok.. hehe..

 

[enne]

olwen-Is he more well-versed in english?? Don't sigh, u got 3 more kids to worry abt next time ler.. at least they got a big korkor to help give them tuition next time.

 

[yanni]

blessed mum,
Ai yo. That's y. We wash in washing machine, still need to separate man and woman? Where got time! Juz wash together. I do agree woman's underwear should be washed separately. That's why my bra and undies are hanged on a lower bamboo(along the window and washing machine height) so that no one can walk under.

olwen,
I 4get the name of the salon. Hehe. Anyway, I've thrown the receipt away. Its near to boon keng mrt. Bendemeer Mall, beside the hawker centre. A new shop along the same side of the UOB ATM. There's promo for hair cut+wash+blow @$8.80 for women. For men, is $4.80. Opp to the shop selling bb/toddler's clothes.

Baby weight,
Mine is 840gms @ 26wks. Guess normal weight should b 900gms-1kg. 28wks will be expected to be 1.1kg-1.2kg.

 

[minkybear]
