Re: Fish oil
I bought from gynae .. oops i throw away the box liao.. the picture on the box shows a baby and according to the description, its specifically designed for development of baby's brain..
I'm not sure whether its ok to take fish oil selling from outside pharmacies.. cos maybe different loh..
So have to *dong* the smell for now loh.. esp when heartburn, faintz the fishy smell will go up to my throat yucks..
A mummy mention that she stop her multivitamins? Eh better take loh cos all the nutrients needed all in there or unless u drink mummies' milk in large amounts dan u can stop the multivitamins?
My nurses assistants mentioned that even still on BF, also take the 3 pills loh.. multivit, calcium and fish oils..

Back from lunch. Went to pizza hut. Yummy.. now so full till i wanna sleep.
For my #2 confinement, I on aircon everynight. BB also in aircon room. I assume aircon is better than fan as it's dry air. Anyway, when we give birth, also in aircon room, after that ward also aircon.
But one negative thing is that my girl got so used to aircon, now going to turn 3 soon, cannot sleep without aircon. She will be very cranky if sleep without aircon. So this time round, I told hubby, we just on fan will do. Dun let the bb gets too used with aircon.
Wintertime, your boss is somehow like my boss. Mine wanted me to take 2 mths only. I insisted 3 and he somehow give in.

mummies using babyplus,
yesterday one of my vendor came to my office. his wife just gave birth to a baby girl more that a month ago. he told me his wife used babyplus also. when his daughter was born, she was immediately very alert. and this is one of the benefit babyplus claim on their website.

wishaboy,
the chinatown shop add is #03-132 Upper Cross St (Cheng Choon Store)Tel: 65323855
if u all got anything want to buy, can call auntie to check if she carries and at what price. She is very friendly.
They still have cotton rolls, pigeon hand n mouth wipes @ $6.30 (last i saw isetan @ $6.60), Avent IQ sterilizer @ $160 (Whole yr 20% off), Pigeon Laundry Detergent value pack @ $13 (instead of $13.90), Pigeon Bottles detergent (didn't ask how much but one of the mummies bought like 6-7 packs)
mangogal,
i didn't bought a lot. only got the breast pads and wipes. They don't have the J&J top to toe. They carry a lot of pureen tho.
ST,
i guess maybe we will use lots of wipes by looking at those mummies buying in cartons!
