Xiao Pooh, thanks!
I've booked my post-natal massage too. Had a different lady the first time around, this time around is a family friend. $70/2h-session including baby massage. If able, planning to do for 10days but if expenses still sky-rocket after birth, will only do for 7days.

I know Malay Heritage Jamu Massage is having a promo now (1 hr and 15min for binding ) and their cmt is quite good so far. but promo ends tmr... better call them if interested.
I'm trying this Maya lady for pre-natal. If good will use her for post natal too. She charge 500 for 7 (90min)

i'm intending to get Capella S705. Was previously comparing btw Capella vs Combi & Maclarren. But narrow down to capella & Combi as these 2 can have Reversible handle. Of cos there's aprica that is as light weighted as combi & capella & with Reversible handle but the price of Aprica too ex.
Decided on Capella finally after try both capella & combi out.
for 1, the Reversible handle of capella is just by one hand pressing the top of the handle to shift over. Many others brand/model requires u to use both hands to "unlatch" the side of the handle before it can be reverse.
2. though there are many models of Capella,but the S705 is more spacious , more leg room for baby. 4 recline level. Fm 0 to 48mths.
3. the canopy can be covered all the way.
More details on the features check out this: http://www.taime.com/tnv/index.php?act=viewDoc&docId=15
Anyway, I've manage to contact Kiddybee to get a good offer for Capella S705. Retail going at $299 & going to up to $329 soon. (some place already up its prices to $329). If anyone's interested in getting a Capella S705, let me know as we need a few orders for the good price of $260 fm KiddyBee.

Hello MTBs! Nice weather to start the weekend off! ^_^
Yesterday night very suay. Was taking cab home with hubby after dinner, and the cab got into an accident. Was thrown forward...face and leg left some damage on the seat in front of me. In the end, spent the rest of the night in TMC monitoring BB's heartbeat. I should have put on seat belt...very important even if it's uncomfy for belly. Thank goodness baby is ok. He was kicking kicking non-stop when I was at the hospital.
Caffeine intake: I haven't been taking much coffee lah, but still cannot kick caffeine altogether. Still drink one or two tea every day.
Pumps: I kiasu, bought my Medela PIS at FFY a long time ago when the price dropped to S$599. Very expensive, so I hope that spurs me on to breastfeed!
Stroller: Bought Capella Prime Sense at discount...S$199. Ok lah. Think I will be using a carrier more than the stroller if I'm out with baby.

pastilles ... yeah, it looks kinda cumbersome and heavy (although looks nice) .. seriously, from someone who has had MANY types of strollers ... u can probably use this for a while ... then once baby is past 6 months old, you'll probably get a MacLaren or something less bulky. If that's your intention, then it's ok .. if u intend to stick to just one stroller for a long time, then Combi will be the way to go.
just my opinion

i got the capella stroller for my new born 2 years ago (wonder its the same model).. all the features are ther, eg reverse handle, full canopy, comfortable padding etc... however, i stop using that and bought another maclaren quest instead..
reasons: capella are too bulky for for my car boot, my hubby complain that its too heavy and not convenient for mi when i bring my girl out alone coz too heavy and bulky.
juz to share my personal experience..

gald to know that ur bb is fine

hi Ivy,
actually I found it not too heavy. Maybe combi is much lighter of cos. But also hear alot of frens tell me not to get too light strollers as not very stable.
yes the wheels are flexible turning, but dunno if it's like the combi miracle turn cos I when i tried both out, to be both turns very well & flexible leh;p
hi kris, thanks for sharing
cos i tried out the MacLaren Techno X & XT but Hubby & I find capella S705 more suited for our preference. hee , guess it's really individual preference
hi lilee,
as capella has many models, i dunno if the one u brought 2 yrs ago is the same one? cos they did mention that this S705 is the 2008 improved version. didnt try out the Marclaren Quest as it's not fm newborns onwards, so cant really say abt it
hee well my HB's the one who quite like this capella so i dun think he's "complaining"abt it being bulky. Also it's less bulky compare to the capella S802, which yes i must say it's really heavier & more bulky. I've tried to close the S705 myself (the one hand close feature), ehh so far still so good la;p
hi jowin,
no problem , take ur time to check it out. They have it at OG & John Little. if u interested after checking out, let me koe.
I also took awhile to try out the different strollers (Combi/Capella/Maclaren/Aprica/Graco) then finally narrow down to capella (not just any model but the S705).

hmmm...i dont know which one to get..the S705 capella or the combi miracle turn...cos i can get the combi at cheaper price anyone interested maybe if we purchase more together will be cheaper...i am still checking with the supplier...
if for me, i dont drive, think it will be better for me to get the combi which is almost half the weight of the capella...right?

Hello ladies,
We went for our glucose test today + my routine checkup.
Glucose Test
The sugary drink that they gave me at the lab tasted a lot like the usual CNY orange we get when we go visiting. It only gets a little overwhelming as i approached the last bits of it. Overall, not too bad in taste. My results are normal!!! Phew...
Our little boy
Mine oh mine, he has certainly grow and double his weight since we last saw him a mth ago. He is now 27wks4days and weighs 1065gm!! We could roughly see his features on the scan and I think he looks more like my HB
Weight
I lost weight!!! My weight is the same as 1 month ago when I went for my checkup and so far only baby gained weight. I'm really pleased with the results as I'm trying not to gain too much for this pregnancy. So far, doctor said I've gained 8kg in total and based on 27Wks4days, she said it is a good achievement.

yeah, pastilles .. it is definitely an individual thing hence the many different types of strollers u see out there .. I don't like the MacLaren X or XT too ..
like lilee .. I love the Quest .. although it is not suitable for newborns ...
For myself, I recently got a Quinny Buzz .. bulky but very stable ... I love it ..

Just now went to the shop near the GuangYin Temple there to buy baby clothes.
I only targetted at the $1 per piece
Bought around 7pcs, long sleeves and short sleeves type. Bought 1 packet of mittens (4 sets), 1 packet of baby bibs (3pcs), price seemed reasonable overall
After that went to OG to buy Pigeon milk storage bag, nappy rash cream, pacifier chain, two rompers, already costed me like $83! Got to apply for the OG membership card also, keke.
Went Toa Payoh Song&Song also to look at the baby clothes, but seems like not so nice. Didn't buy anything there.
Spaghetti : U must be extra careful leh! Hope u are feeling better. Next time better use seatbelt bah. I also dislike using seatbelt cos its very uncomfortable, haha.
I'm also thinking of buying the Medela PIS since its $599 at First Few Years. But i'm still hasitating due to the price.

I bought the pigeon electric pump during takashimaya sale.. I see the demo and it was so silent so I bought it. Actually, how we determine whether the pump is good to buy?
I bought majority of my baby stuff except the bathing tub and diapers. What brand is good for the diapers? My friend said mama poko is good for newborn leh.

hi kristangel, yup individual pref
hi funshine, wow! u bot most stuff already?! OMG, i' havent gotten any yet! i'm going BK next mth, hence kept delaying to buy baby clothes first as wanted to see if i can get anything in BK.
then i still deciding btw baby cot or Playpen/bassinet.. i tot of a baby cot, then heard that sometimes baby might not want to sleep in baby cot. Also baby cot can only sleep till 4to 6mths, then aftertat the cot becomes too small for the baby to sleep (at least tt's wat my colleague says for her little boy).
& aftertat a lot of ppl start letting baby sleep on mattress instead so got more space for baby to flip n turn...
any advice?
For breastpump, i also been told manual pump not good:
1. flow not good, 2. if intending to express frequently(like after going back to work), then manual is too troublesome. 3. too tiring to keep manual expressing..

pastillies, my colleague recently bought baby clothes for me in BK. i find that the quality is not that good. regarding the baby cot or play pen, for me, i bought a 4 in 1 baby cot at taka that cost 359 and is suitable to the age of 5. you can consider getting that now as it is having promotion. it coms with a fiber flux mattress, bedding set and a musical mobile cot toy.
