Ya....you may get from Joann, but her design not alot lar. Her one will be very fast as she have ready stock for some of the fabrics.
 
hello.. greeting from office.

not a bad start today. not really get into any 'real work' yet.. colleagues have been coming over to my place and chat...

Just finished milking, going to milk again at 2+, 3pm.

Just called home, Zac's fever had subsided. He went for his 5in1 jab yesterday and this morning developed fever of 37.6 degree.
He weighs 6.1kg now and is 62cm tall.
 
Alfafa,
When it comes to kids, I am quite pantang and yes, do believe they can see things. I hope bb Grace is fine now. Else, there is no harm getting promegranate leaves for her to bath in.

hoho,
What about putting your pump parts in containers? Like lock and lock or Tupperware? I have a tupperware container which fits my pump parts to a 'T'. I can also fit all the pump parts into this tupperware and just pour boiling water over it when I need to sterilise the parts at work. Actually, this was what I did in my recent trip to HK. I couldn't possibly have brought my steriliser along! ;)

Grace,
Sure, can get them to deliver to one address. You are opting for registered post is it? Cos normal post is already included in the price quoted.

It will be fun for your family as well but you have to be prepared to keep carrying the kids. Once you are mentally prepared, though physically tired, you will still enjoy the trip

Kome,
Thanks for the link. Looks like I only need M size. L size too big for my boy to bring to school cos his is only half day and he doesn't bring so many things to school. I am looking for one that I can just squeeze into his small school bag
happy.gif
In fact, I will be interested in small wetbags! Haha. You have any new ones that you want to sell? :p

Cindy,
I am sure you can do it. Moreover, you don't have to transport #2 out of the house. I have to think of how to transport #2 out of the house, then #1. Cos #1's cc only takes in kids after 7.30am. And I have to leave Sengkang by 7.35am if I want to reach work place (in Buona Vista) on time! Which means hubby may have to send #2 to my parents' place first, then turn back and pick me and #1 up. Aiyo.... And the packing of ebm to bring over to my parents' place and my pump to bring to work. *faint and refuse to be revived*
 
Kome & Prosper
I'll be ordering 2 more wetbags..this time from Joann....cant resist temptations...haaa~~

Pups
Dun think need to opt for registered..so do you have anything in mind?? PM or sms me at 96800374... =)
 
<font color="ff0000">cindy</font> - hows ur kids? better liaoz? don lose patience..kids are like that since they can't express themselves well. Take care leh!

<font color="ff0000">kome</font> - haha ya lor..i am thinking if can DIY myself cos one of my pacifier no leash.

<font color="ff0000">pups</font> - Welcome back! So nice to know u enjoy ur trip! so Envy. ok lah u didn't miss much...it's all 'poisonous' stuff which u don't want to know
happy.gif


<font color="ff0000">queenie</font> - now Japan got virus also don need go. I intend to go next mar n to the disneyland to celebrate Joel's 1st bday! heehee shun bian can see sakura

<font color="ff0000">starflower</font> - u staying near vivo right? If u don mind, i can ask my sis to pass to u when she pass there. I doubt Joann can split the mailing since already discounted. If u think it is a hassle, then go ahead n order on ur own like pumpkin.

<font color="ff0000">kris</font> - have u bought wetbag from Joann before? If not, u want to combine wetbags order with me n maybe <font color="ff0000">sportyger</font> to get 5% discount? U stay in SK right?

<font color="ff0000">prosper</font> - u also bought from creampalour before ah?! wa u r another shopper leh keekee. Ya i saw her quality like very good. Too bad mine is a boy no chance to shop from her yet.
 
pups, haha small one practical for our own use. i use to put tissue, money, extra cards when i go eat lunch ahhaha!! yes i am sure we can solve the logistics as they come!! too troublesome so that's why me converting AM feeds to FM so don't have to worry abt ebm, pump, else i think i really cannot take it ahhaha! selfish me. night time whne i come home, i will latch.
 
pups, sounds like you have a great time in HK. peifu you can bring your 2 kiddos along, I have only one and I dont dare to bring her overseas until maybe a few mths later.

alfafa, after reading your post, I got goosebumps immediately. It must have been quite a terrifying experience. Like what mangogal says, pray over her and ask for God's protection.
happy.gif


Seabreeze, thanks for the email gal. Do you have any idea if the words that are used are same as the GD cards?

Cindy and Pumpkin. hope your bbs are feeling better, take care!
 
<font color="ff0000">grace</font> - 5% is for repeat customers only. I bought from her b4 so entitled to 5% automatically.
 
Pups
Ya lor, small one not very practical. I can only put 2 rompers and 3 handkerchiefs and its very 'fat' already. If you want to put clothes for toddler think might be a little too difficult.

Vernice
If starflower want to get together the wetbag with you, you can pass to me if she stay near Vivo. Coz everyday i go to habourfront for work, i can meet her to pass it.
 
Vernice
Actually i am thinking, since i already got 3 from Joann, not sure if i will to add all of your 7 orders will she allow? In this case just need to get another 7 wetbags and can entitle to 10% already.
 
<font color="ff0000">grace</font> - I don mind coordinating for SK n AMK mummies
happy.gif
just pm me ur order and address

<font color="ff0000">kome</font> - donno Joann will allow or not leh? that tm u nvr wait for us. so fast order n somemore delivered wor.
hmm...wait for starflower to confirm lor
 
Kome,
I am using it to put 1 handkerchief only! Haha. For my boy, it is usually a wet handkerchief. As for clothes, unless he really soil himself, the teacher will not change for him since he will be dismissed at 1pm. So, I don't need one to put clothes for him to bring to school.

Grace,
Give me some time... I will let you know. I am multi-tasking now and also packing to get out of the house. Will be going over to my parents' place this afternoon... and need to pick my boy up also. He threw the "I don't want to go to school" tantrum this morning and I managed to coax him out of the house after promising to pick him up personally at 1pm.

Sportyger,
Not so hard to bring a baby out... hungry, just latch! I think it will be a nightmare to bring overseas when baby is on semi solids. It is either your baby takes instant cereal (you still have to think of boiling water) or bottled food throughout the whole trip, or you have to cook porridge??!! :p
 
Pups,
For me, Small will be for personal usage.
Will be getting a Medium &amp; Large this time round.... =)

If you're thinking of getting the wetbags, maybe we order thru Vernice to get the 10% discount...then either 1 of us can collect from her...what do you think?

Vernice,
Will PM you my order &amp; my address...thanks
 
Pups
That small wetbag 9 x 7 inches (23cm x 18cm)

Vernice
You wanna check with Joann if can add to my order and get the 10% discount. I still got 1 wetbag not ready and hope can get the 10% discount also.
 
<font color="ff0000">grace</font> - replied ur mail. I want to place the order by this week. U in hurry?

<font color="ff0000">kome</font> - hmm...i try to check.
 
<font color="ff0000">kome</font> - thxs..how to see marc mummies ah?
oh i checked with joann liao she said u paid liao so cannot add
 
mummies,
Your advice needed. Any of ur babies milk intake decline one eh? My boy, now 2.5mths used to take 4-4.5oz of ebm, then I tried to stretch him to 5oz, which he managed to take for a few days. Then for the past few days, he went back to 4oz, then now the last 2 feeds, he only drank 3.5oz each time. Tried to coax him to drink, but he will use his hand to push away or push the teats out. Try harder and he will cry. But overall, he looks ok and not cranky. So wonder if its normal??
 
Pups, oh tell me abt it! when I brought my #1 who was 2.5yo then to Japan last year, he suddenly wanted to be carried all the time. Worse, I brought the stroller, so me and my hubby took turns to carry stroller with him seated inside up and down the subway stairs. everywhere we went we took train, so up and down cuz we don't want to walk long long distance to take the lifts if there were any. I brought my pedometer along and everyday I managed to walk more than 10000 steps and when I returned from the trip, heehee weight loss. But I salute you, 2 kids up the stairs!!! I don't think I'm able to do it at all. no more holidays till kids are bigger. Heehee.

Alfafa, so scary. By just reading your post is enough to send chills down my spine. My mum believes that young children can see things, and always ask me to return home before 7pm. So we never go beyond that timing even to in-laws or my parents house, we also make it a point to return before sunset. Otherwise mum would also chase us back. My colleague's sil got a spirit followed her back when she visited the pierce reservoir. I frequent that roti prata house at Casurina Rd, after makan usually would bring my #1 to the reservoir to walk walk until my colleague related to me her story. Yeeee...from then onwards I don't go there anymore, unless it's in the morning or noon time.
 
prosper, read on and off from the archive that you are taking medicine to stop MS. Why? What a pity. Pls don't stop if your supply is good. Even if you must stop due to family pressure or work, then just let it subside by itself by prolonging pump intervals and not emptying the breasts.
 
<font color="119911">kome,
tx for the link.

vernice,
i din buy frm her b4 but i wanna get the medium size one. i PM u my order k. tx.</font>
 
alfafa,
My boy had a similar howling incident when he was 7 weeks. We were at a fren's house at Holland Rd and when we were abt to leave, he suddenly looked deep into the trees and cried. I tot it was becoz' of the dark but now after reading yr post, I wonder... Anyway, dun think so much abt it. It may be nothing of that sort. Im quite pan tang when it comes to my boy so I bathe him in pomengrate leaves when I return home. My boy has nv cried that way since then. U may want to try like pups suggested

pups,
Welcome back! I knew u can do it! Judging from hw u stuff things into yr coach bag.. haha.. I hope I will be as "strong" as you when I go Japan.

Cindy, pumpkin,
Do take care. Im sure yr darlings will recover soon under ur tender care
 
Vernice
Had invite you to join the Mar MTB group. Huhh.....thought can get the 10% discount. :x No choice than.

Teddybaby
Me...me....Anver initially took 4oz every 2 hrs, don't know why this 3 weeks he can only take 3oz every 3 to 4 hrs lor. Sometimes he cannot even finish up 3 oz.
 
Teddybaby
Ya...actually quite similar case too....Ryan used to take 120ml every 2.5-3hrly....recently cant finish his 120ml...will drink up to 70ml then start crying and can hear the gaggling sound in his throat. After letting him take his breather, he'll continue but it's already an hour! =( Really dunno what happen to them...sigh
 
kome,
then how? u juz let him be? but your Anver is very chubby le. How heavy and how many wks is he now? I get quite worried though, tot they shld be drinking more as they get older...not less
 
Irene,
Yes, will be but still thinking when is the best time to give....maybe after 1year old..then few jabs =)
 
Alfafa,

Me also like you, not very sure how many ml to bb. First time my hb feed, she took 90 ml and needed more suckle but subsequently her intake went down until she reject the bottle. So today I gave her 80 ml, she finished and looked like she wanted more suckle but I never let her latch on. 1.5 hrs later, she want milk again. Was quite happy that she was willing to take the bottle. Humm... maybe my husband was not patient enough with her when he feed her. Wonder whether i should pump more to give her tomorrow. Am going to try her on 2 bottles tomorrow since today went smoothly.

Re; Lumps in Breast

If u feel lump but soft, it means that still got blk ducts but not engorged. You got to work harder on massaging before pumping or latching. Try to get rid of the lump before you relax on pumping to prevent recurrence.

Re: SAHM

Actually I take my hats off SAHM. I think it is tougher to take care of the bb 24/7 on your own. Though working is tough as well but there's no need to be there for the bb at work, the mind can afford to switch off a bit and one's time need not be dependent on bb's routine and moods. SAHM with no pay... really tough. I definitely cant take it, maybe with kids but not with bb cos bb cant really be disciplined.
 
im here.. horrrrr.... im gg start work nex wed ler.. dun think i'l b able to make iz for wkdae gatherin.. feel so sianz gg back work &amp; night class.. sure miz bb badly der.. remb wen i go for class, bb is kickin in mee vigourously.. gonna miz dat feelin..

bb no poo for 7daes ler.. gettin to worry liao.. wat to do?
 
Irene,

I gave my bb the jab before she came to US. Dont want to risk her getting it before she is 1. Anyway, the extra jab is paid by the CDA account, so dont really care. Hee..
 
Irene
I only gave my elder son Pneumococcal jab after his 2 yrs old birthday and before he is going to CC. After 2yrs old need to jab 1 dosage only, save money :p. My hubby said that most important is to take only before he went to cc.
 


ling,

I heard of bbs who din poo for 10 days and still ok. As long as bb dont look uncomfortable or unwell, i think it is ok. If bb is on FM, u might want to give a bit more water, in case bb is constipated.
