little eye and sung

support belt is very very helpful, esp when 5months plus my tummy getting bigger. Then after using the belt, it ease my tireness gradually. of course, + my hb gentle message. hehe, I wear in bed to remain my tummy in a comfy position.

for you info, I bought this in coozfashion.com and after due, I would like to sell it out.
 
cincin, how does your support belt looks like? cotton material or ? hee you make it sound so good, i'm tempted to get one too esp since i'm finding it hard to sleep at night and has been turning and tossing abt.
 
Hope u mummies had a great lunch...its raining on my side and i'm freezing!

kome - ic...think i may jus ask around for the breast pump, probably buy it second hand from someone i know and if not will source for it online....

thinking of buying electric cos i'm lazy...hee..
 
sung

yeah yeah yeah. me too i was very difficult in bed before, dun know how to locate my b. Now so good lu,hehe

hey i just check the package 10% cotton, Nylon60%, Spandex 30%.

Hey dun throw away the package, i think we can resell after give birth.
 
Little eye
My back always feel the pain even if i seat down.

Pinksorbet
I had brought the dual electric pump also. Same as you, i am very lazy.
 
hi, recieved a few invitation for facebook.. hee.. but i seldom go face book one leh.. anyone had multiply account can add me.. my id is elicia
 
i got a manual pump.. hubby said like that can excersie my hand..
sad.gif


but think if possible i will try to latch on my bb more... i know a fren who survive without any pumps and bottles.. she bf her child to 1 yr old..
 
elicia - in a way manual is good too cos electric might have a chance to break down and have to resort to manual pumping again...

my colleague oso survive without the pump...can save $$$ this way

seriously i dunno how long my perserverance in bf will last....
 
Is the maternity belt useful? Can use when sleeping too?
You bought at coofashion before? They sold maternity clothes too… later pop in and view see got nice one anot.
Is it a local site?

Sorry ah.. so many questions.
 
Hi Daphne, I've bought breast pump, bottle warmer, cot, baby clothes, baby wrapper, bibs. Beside baby stuffs, hubby is considering new camera and videocam to shoot during delivery

Elicia,
I buy from sprees, so need to wait also. By the time that i receive them might be in end Nov or early Dec already. :p
 
So far, we only bought some clothes, mitten and booties for our boy. Daddy goes mad on shopping rather than me. I need to keep reminding him that babies grow very fast.
Will need to get some more items when there is sales.

- Playpen (maybe after CNY then buy)
- Breastpump (decided on the Ameda dual pump, will get it near due date or after birth)
- Sterilizer (see if got any hand-me-down, if not wait for sale to get the avent brand de)
- Bottles
- Baby Wipes
- Breastpads (will need more of this)
- Shampoo, cleansing gel, powder, nappy rash cream… etc

Still got some hand-me-downs from the sisters, like tummy binder, pram so dun need buy.
Also need to prepare the Thermal bag, hot/cold pack when going back to work to bring back the ebm home.
 
Basic things needed for newborn, I had already have it or brought the new ones. Cloth liners and nappy cream will only get them maybe in Feb. The rest i have already.

I have even brought 2 diaper bags to use.
 
WOW!! Irene & Kome
u gals bought so many stuffs already. I have yet to buy any for BB yet. Oni got some hand me downs form my sis. Sis gave me lots of clothes already, so think will oni buy few new ones for BB discharge n 1st mth. Got breast pumps and sterilizer & bottles (new ones) from her too.

Think will start buying after I buy a wardrobe n BB cot if not, no place to keep the stuff.
 
Minnie
Haha......cannot resist the temptation so had brought alot. Sure will find some place to put them first.
 
minnie, me not yet buy.. just clothes, mitten and booties... the rest.. aiming but waiting for sale or nearer to due date.
 
Hi Mummies

where did you all got the baby clothing from?
Those from kiddy palace for a normal top or bottom already cost 5.90 - 9.90, is that the norm?

How many pairs of top and bottoms are you all standing by?
 
Since pregnant I have already control myself not to buy too early but I also can't resist temptation.
Once there is Robinson 20% discount sales again, I shall get everything there.
I'm already using my avent warmer to warm up soya bean drink so that I don't take too much cold drink. Ha Ha... mummy use it first...
 
Joyce
I dun intend to get maternity clothing. Juz get some larger size clothing will do.

idlecat, st
yup, the BB clothing are so cute. Very hard to resist not to buy. But I had alot of hand-me-downs from my nephew, think shdnt get so many. Wait for MIL to buy.
 
Some of the baby stuffs I've to get 2 set as my mum will help to babysit. So, need to get extra to put at her place. There is hundred of things I want to buy. Looking forward to weekends for shopping...
 
minnie24
tatz wat i thinking as well.. since i am sahm so dun intend to buy, will get a few from my sister in law..

For newborn, best to let them wear rompers. If 2 pcs will be too big for them to wear the pants. Last time for my son i got 2 pcs and he can only wear the top and its covered till his feet already. No choice just wear the top only.

I have 2 sets of things now also. 1 set at my PIL's hse and the other set at my mum's hse, so #2 do not need to get 2 sets already.
 
sung,
for newborns, better to use smaller bottles. Since bigger bottle won't be filled up, there will be more air, baby higher chance to suck in the air and colic.

Re 2nd hand breast pump:
I read from a website that it is not advisable to use 2nd hand breast pump, unless its hospital grade ones and only certain models are hospital grades. Because there could be bacteria/germs, disease left behind by former user which can't be cleaned out. Unless we getting it from someone in the family we know, not so advisable to buy 2nd hand. But maybe changing the valve might do the trick, I'm not sure.

So far, I've bot pram, breast pads, milk bags, milk bottles and a set of rompers (x5) for newborns. Others like breast pump, cot, playpen, rocker and some BB clothes managed to hands-me-down from a family member. Other smaller items not yet purchased. Car seat...hehe, hoping to sound out relatives/ frends to give as BB 1st mth pressie if possible
happy.gif
 
teddybaby, I also intend to hint hint my family for a baby cot, then my grp of close fren for stroller and another grp for car seat.. haha... make it my chirstmas present or my birthday (4th march) present bah... bb 1 st month still long way to go.. before that u may need the car seat to ferry bb out from hospital?
 
i just wondering will it be good to have the same bday as your bb... cos mine and the EDD is just 3 days apart... confrim this year have no birthday cake liao.. hee.. no celebration as will be either in hospital or at home doing confinment..
 
Elicia
You cannot put bb in car seat so early. No good for their back. You may carry bb with you and seat behind.
