pamela,
hihi! havent seen u for awhile
happy.gif
jumperoo is like a stationary walker for babies to sit in that they can bounce in. evenflo has the exersaucer and baby einstein also has a similar one.

dymples,
yr boobs lopsided too ah? mine also!
sad.gif
dem obvious some more, and the output for the smaller one is going down everyday cos my baby somehow doesnt like to suckle on that side for too long, sighs.
 
Not much time to chat cos i'm rushing down to the taka fair! wahahaha..

Happywifey, since u are lopsided, u might wanna pump the breast ur bb doesn't wanna feed on. use the football hold so u can pump and latch at the same time. in this way ur ss will be maintained and u have some EBM.
happy.gif
gd luck! i'm sure u can succeed in giving EBM!

Re: ss
Glad_gal, i started pumping 4hrly and ss increased liao.. have u been diligent? kekeke...

Bibi, u poor thing... i hope u had the soup LAST and not the first course. u still studying and working?! how u take it? ur bb who looks aft when u are studying? last sem liao right? Jia you!

RE: sterilizer (Avent)
any mummies have prob w the Avent sterilizer power plug?me having probs for a while already w e power plug. doesnt seem to connect well to sterilizer . but e worst thing is that when i bot it at baby fair last year, i didnt check on e warranty. so i have no warranty with it. how dumb can i get..sigh...

Hello mummies, haven't been posting for a long time. Maybe feeling kind of blue...

Baby now sleeping lesser and lesser in the pm. Usually it is only half an hour or even lesser. So has been quite tiring.

She also like to suck her thumbs. Like really enjoying herself!

Can't join your for the Karaoke. Enjoy k?

milk management> Usually milk tat i pump in offiz will keep into the ice bag den into the fridge. can i still freeze the EBM when i reach home?
 
haru, i also have the same problem and didn't keep e receipt or post out the warranty card but think yoyosan mentioned to me that can just bring the pump over to service centre they will know if within warranty anot.. i've been lazy to bring it over coz too far le..
 
yoyosan,

abt 2 to 3 weeks later, they will know how to flip back liao... my bb flipped mid Feb... now he is able to flip back by himself as well...

Haru,
ya, ever mentioned to jenn previously. Just bring down the sterilizer. my pump i also din send out the warranty, so the philips say no worries, they will just take the manufacturing date as start of warranty. manufacturing date is in their system, we can't see.

Talk abt Avent pump, si bei sianz. I changed mine 2x liao, going to change again cos the rhythm goes haywired by itself after a while. Sianz... 3rd time change liao.
 
Hi Mummies,
I just pop by ministry of baby(selling baby stuffs) at international plaza. I saw the dex dura bib. They selling $7.90 each but i dun know if it's big or small, didn't ask cos i tot the ones we are ordering are cheaper but infact our order are in US$ so buying from tat shop cheaper lei. I'm not sure why they selling so cheap. MAybe i go ask them later. If there are actually defects or like from factory outlet...
 
yoyosan,
mine too! pump suction tend to go haywire once in a while. think i will bring sterilizer and pump down (in the original box?)when hubby's leg is better and more mobile so he can help me. do you have to wait long at e service centre?

Bear,
yipee!! you must be happy that ur ss has up-ed again. i managed to pump 125ml just now in office. suspect its coz baby didnt really empty my boob before i left for work. anyway, i noticed my right boob hard to express milk, always have blocked ducts..sianz..left boob can pump 100ml, right boob pump 20ml. so unbalanced!!
 
Haru,
no need in original box. Plastic bag also can.
happy.gif

I went on wkday afternoon, was okie. Less than 1hr. Hb went on sat morning alone, was ok also.
 
haru,
when ur pump goes haywired, issit when u try to massage and press ur boobs? I realised that it seems to happen when i am massaging and pressing them. Maybe cos the pressure is disturbed and thus for the haywired? But the 2nd pump which i changed for was okie leh. And hor, when i asked philips if this haywired problem is very common, they say so far they have not heard of it. hmm, bluff one... cos at least now i know that you also kanna.. hee
 
Yoyosan,Haru,
Me also very sianz with avent pump. In fact just went to philips service centre yday. No queue at all cos i went there like 5pm on weekday. My problem is with the motor part where it is connected to the rubber piece to pump. There's a piece of plastic on the motor and always got out of alignment and i can't connect to the funnel. I also asked if everybody facing same problem, he say i'm the unique one.Third time already, i'm so tired to keep going there... Anyway they changed a new motor for me.
 
<font color="ff0066"> Karen, Babyzel</font>
Oic.... hehehhe... no worries babe. Tink I was rushing off to the nursery to feed and change bb.

<font color="ff0066"> Balboa BB Sling - Blossom design</font>
Anyone interested? I'm selling it cos my bb does not like to be in it. Tink she's too used to the BECO carrier. PM me if keen yah.


<font color="ff0066"> Happywifey &amp; Pamela</font>
Yah lor. Lopsided boobs... yup yup. It's more obvious when engorged. Now I'm trying my best to increase feedings on the smaller side.
I'm hoping for them to even out. Or else dunno how.
 
Babyzel,
u 3x to philips liao ah. This time when i go, will also be the 3rd time. I trying to hold till as long as i can. Always go, very sianz. Even tho they always change a new motor part, it is the hassle of going to TPY every time. I rather they give a good one.. once and for all. Haiz, but no choice, will stick on to Avent since buy liao. Not willing to spend and buy other pump, at least not for now liao.

Unbalance boobs:
Me too, unbalanced like siao. But thanks for unbalanced boobs, at least the one wif more milk is able to support bb's feed. Hope the lesser one will catch up soon wif constant pump.
happy.gif
 
Hi Mummies

Long time no post, busy wif nothing except carrying bb, wants to be carried all the time.

Those eyeing on jumperoo can ask friend in US to buy, my hb got it in US for US$80 only, cheap cheap.

Anybody wants that stretch out bear playmat that Pamela bought, still new, open from packaging only, can let go at $50, bb prefers the FP rainforest one. PM me if you are interested.

My milk ss has been pathetic, can only managed 2 feeds per day but intend to revive the ss.

Yes bb can flip liao and always end his stunt with licking the bumpermat.

Got to go carry bb liao...
 
yoyosan, babyzel, haru

i have avent uno and duo...both ok leh... i got no problem with the motors.


Re : sterilizing tablets

i have 1 box unopened sterilizing tablets from pigeon. Just bought abt 3 weeks back. ANyone interested to buy from me? Coz i bought it for use when i go back to work. But now i 100% using hand so no need sterlizing tablets anymore.

please let me know.

thanks
 
shop4stuffs: what gateway did u use for shipping? I juz joined 2 sprees online and would probably like to do my own in future..like wat u said at doorstep.
 
babyzel and yoyosan,
e other prob i have with motor is that sometimes its hard to disconnect the motor from e rubber part..

brocoli,
you must have strong biceps now!! i tink most babies are at the stage they like to be carried.

re:beco carrier
anyone stil using e insert? hv not brot bb out for quite a while. thinking whether to remove insert soon..

have a good weekend mummies! hubby's leg stil in pain, guess wil not be gg out for quite a while unless i bring bb out on mu own.but its so sad to leave hubby at home. to be honest, also no mood to go out liao. sigh..hv to see orthopaedic on monday to assess his injury.wished i had stopped him from running e other night.
 
yoyosan, haru, babyzel,
RE: Avent Uno
Previously i was using Avent Uno too, but after 2 yrs, when i wanted to use it again after my #2 is born, it brokes down!! No more warranty already and thus bought Medela PIS.
I have the same problem as u guys, when i try to massage hard n pump at the same time, the motor will stop itself sometimes. Yoyosan, this is common problem but the ppl told u not, they are lying in fact.. keke..

Kash,
wowseh, u really 100% by hand express now? Do u produce more and is it faster?
 
haru,
if u find difficulty to disconnect the rubber from the motor, just on and off the motor again. the rubber part would be easy to remove liao. This is a security feature of the avent pump, as told to me by philips.

Joyce,
haiz.. din noe of other pumps then. Just thot get everything philips shd be easier. haha.. lazy preggie woman then.. so there.. now got to suffer.. hmm.. those liars would be from the service centre pple liao. haha. they are the one who told me.. No, din hear of that problem.

Hi mummies

Only got time now to come in...yay Sat tml!
happy.gif
Always looking forward to wkend so that can spend more time with bb.

Happywifey: Same! My bb also outgrown Mamypoko 'S', but when I tried the 'M' today, seems like too big. Alamak...dunno if shld use back Nepia or not...

Shop4stuff: So it's not really a gd deal?? I guess they throw in the pull-up pants to sweeten it.

Bear: Gd that ur ss is up! Sigh, my ss still miserable. May call up parentcraft tml to find out reason. No block ducts also leh, i have let bb latch on more often, increase no of pumps but still like that. Anyone has this symptoms before?? It's really a drastic drop, but when I latch on bb, seems like got enough leh but dunno why cannot pump out.

Haru: Cheer up..ur hb will recover soon. Spend time resting at home and still can be with bb
happy.gif


Korea clothes BP: Hee anyone buying?? The rompers all soo cute!! Thinking of the superman one for my boy keke...
