(2009/03) March 2009 MTBs

Devil,
I dun want to spend too much leh. Just a few pic of my big tum tum and a few pic of family photo. Was thinking if we can get good bargain and ask David to tailor a cheaper package for us.

Keron&Jeris,
I dunno when will be the best time to take leh. I think will have some validity one bah. If more mummies interested, then we can bargain with David lor. I have gone thru a few studio comments already. Looks like Foto-U's David skills and services are the best among all.
 


maywong,
if can get less than $150, i don mind considering. i agree with u that studio photos are different from self taken pics.

i think we shld take when tumtum is really big then can see the effect mah..heehee

do u know if we have to bring our own clothes or do our own make up?
 
Good morning mummies!

Am glad that you girls found the info useful. And yes, it worked miracles to change hubby's mind about saving money...kekeke...I guess no one wants to take the risk when it comes to our baby's health and well-being.

tsp,
I guess it's possible to get the replaceable parts but consider the following quote:

"Some pumps have internal diaphragms that cannot be removed and cleaned or replaced. In addition, even if you get a new collection kit (the part the touches your breast and collects the milk) it may be possible for air-born pathogens or droplets of milk that are not visible to the naked eye to get into a pump motor and cause contamination to the next user."

You know my hubby says that it's a sales gimmick by breast pump companies to scare people and get them to BUY new pumps and not get old ones

I told him that it can't be cos it is FDA (Food and Drug Administration of USA) that passes/ authorises the product as 'single-user'.
 
vernice,
I think got to bring own clothes. Make up wise got to ask him.

RE: Studio Photo Shoot
Ok, let me consolidate the list. We will keep this list on till next Monday. After which, I will call David up to bargain a good price. Please let me know the preference as per below format okie? I will try to ask for package to include makeup & hairdo.

FORMAT:
Nick / Budget / No. of Pax / Package Type (Maternity/Family)/ Makeup & Hairdo (Y/N, no of pax?)

Eg. Maywong / Below $150 / 2A+1C / Maternity & family / Y, for mummy & touchup for hb/gal

List of Interested Parties
==========================
1) Maywong / Below $150 / 2A+1C / Maternity & family / Y, for mummy & touchup for hb/gal
 
maywong,
hmm...then usually what kind of clothes to wear? i saw more mummies just wore tube..
tentatively put me in, if its a good bargain then i will "insist" my hubby to do it heehee

Ladies,
Anyone bot nursing clothes yet? Where can get cheap & chic nursing clothes other than online stores? Cos feel need to try it out. Nursing top around $30 or less is a good buy I think
 
hello mummies..

can i check with you....do we need to wash everything for baby usage even if it's brand new???
like towels, nappy inserts??
 
Hi mummies

I had a terrible time sleeping last night, cos was feeling terrible chest pains which i'm wondering if its heartburn, and i felt pretty cold too...its realli quite painful ...and bb was kicking me actively which did not make things better....

daphne - for me i will wash everything to be used by baby even if its brand new as their skin is v sensitive
 
Daphne
Yes, it is best that you wash with plain water once even if it is brand new. I intend to wash mine in Feb, so that will not be dirty again so fast.
 
teddybear,
i saw at mother en vougue nursing top going for 2 @ $50..maybe u can check out? it's just normal nursing top

crosailo,
my mum say got to wash everything even brand new wor...

pinksorbet,
oh no..then u feel better now? if not better double confirm with gynae
 
Daphne,
I usually will wash it. Cos after 1 wash it is more absorbant and also cleaner bah. Cos you never know what had strolled over those baby stuffs.
 
kome....

oh....wassh with detergent can too?? as long anything that has t be put on baby....including the bottles must be sterlised too...
okie....thank you....
 
vernice - i'm still feeling the pains though they have subsided...i've called the clinic and the nurse told me to monitor the condition cos if its no good can go take medication...she said could be indigestion or relax of the muscles...

i don't really know how to distinguish between chest pains and heartburn...or are they similiar? can anyone tells me how it feels like to have heartburn?
 
Daphne,
I will wash it with plain water for new clothes. But I got alot of pass on clothes, so I wash all together with the baby detergent.

May
U better than me. I gained about 8kg to 10kg liaoz.. Keke.. Forgotten my weight before I expecting. But luckily, the past month gained less than 1kg. Hopefully I can maintain like this for the next 3-4 months... But very difficult.. Coz Christmas and Chinese New Year... Haiz..
 
Daphne
Brand new clothes i will only wash with plain water for the first time without any detergent. Heehee......thats what my mum told me but not sure of the reason.
 
hope the weather will be o our side when we wash those baby clothings.....if not...then we sure panic..haha..it has been raining season...yesterday was such a pour...scary....
oh mummies.....do wear non-slip shoes...weather been wet...

Good morning mummies . Woo this thread really moves too fast just did not login in over the weekend and yesterday already got so many threads to read ..

Baby clothes : Brand new or old pls do wash as those new clothes sometimes was thrown on the floor during production so best is wash before wearing .
 
vernice ...

ok me go and measure and PM you the measurement k

yes the material is very soft and strecthy type ... think if you have the 'asset' then no need to wear tube lor heehee

re: nursing wear

actually no need to buy now cos you will only need it when you start bringing the bb out and provided you latch on outside ... cos i have frens who dun latch on their bb one

oso after a while, you dun need nursing wear cos i find that its easiest with just latching on while wearing normal t-shirt

pinksorbet ...

heartburn is like having acid rushing up to your chest area ... usually happen during the last tri cos everything is pushed upwards
 
st
u r on restricted privacy settings in FB.. tatz y most of us couldnt locate u thru ur email.. u may wanna change the settings or may add me in [email protected]
Thks...

Re: Maternity Shots
I wanna join in as well but dunnoe whether my hubby allow or not le.. will confirm on that hopefully within these few days ba..

Re: Weight Gain
I oso forgot my weight before conceived, but i suppose I gain around 7-10kg from start till week 27 now.. but one of my friend say that i gain too little liao le.. i did told her that i am petite, and maybe thatz y lor.. trying to "pump" myself up more le..
 


pinksorbet,
Heartburn got this burning feeling. Usually mine started pain at chest and collar bone area. Then the burning sensation will start from end of throat till half of the throat.

Devil,
Actually I hope to deliver asap. I will to go slimming centre to slim down before my bro's wedding end of next yr. Hopefully I can succeed.
