sunshinebaby, er, my girls actually poo about once a day or sometimes every alternate days. I'm still feeding them Friso stage 1 cos they were premmies and my pd recommended us to use their corrected age as a guide.
busy busy busy ... so just a quick one.
Lenny, that fellow might have accidentally stumbled upon this SMH thread. He/she might have googled your name and this thread popped up. And from then it is very easy to read your postings. A quick "searh" on this thread using your nick will pull out alot of your postings.
Guys, you would be surprised by what a quick google of your name can pull out. Be careful.

hi all,nice seeing u all last sat.txs for organising the gymboree.tink i quite like their training,so might sign up when my gal is slighly older.
lenny,
I did a quick google search on your nick and it came out instantly 4th on the list. You did a recent purchase of the thermos food jar? A simple click on your nick on that page will show me your age, occupation .. not to mention your post on that thread that you want ot pick up at chao chu kang etc etc
What I am trying to say is that it's not difficult to trace if someone sets his/her mind to it. :-(
We are in the era of total connectivity via twitter, FB, and many other social media and that unfortunately translates into even lesser personal privacy

hello mommies! busy busy day so "eat snake" awhile during lunch to catch up on the posts.

Puree
my gal likes pumpkin amd carrot puree but doesn't like pear puree. hee. cos i think pear puree not as sweet as pumpkin and carrot.
NAN FM
My gal has been taking Nan HA since birth and she poos many times each day. And it's always dark green or greenish except few times which is mustard or brownish. But most of the times its dark green, even if i fed her carrot puree come out still green heehee. I thought watever goes in comes out the same colour. Does poo-ing so many times each day normal? Or is it because of Nan? you mean your fren giving Nan bb only poo once a week?

hi mommies
just to check if you are giving teething biscuits for your bb? If yes, what brand? I went to check Heinz teething rusks.. anyone giving that to bb? Read the ingredient list and it says some salt was added to make the rusks hard. Is it ok? Cos i thought should try not to give bb food with salt?

Hi all..
me also busy since morning..now then can breathe.
Lenny,
I read about your post and i feel that who ever stalking u is so freaky and scary.
I think you should make a police report if it became worse.
Sunshinebaby,
I used to feed Baby Hong Yi Friso stage 1. Now changing to Similac. I read that Friso actually contains fish oil. which may explains why it is oilier? And yes, it has more bubbles as compared to similac. im not sure why.
I think friso's price went up to $34 from $29.90 (NTUC).
btw, i've let my bb try honey dew..he really loves it alot. i used a metal spoon to scrape out and feed him cos' i still haven't got my hand blender yet.

Hi Yuki29,
I let bb try the heinz teething rusk recently. its too hard for him to chew. Maybe he's not really chewing yet.End up i threw the whole stick soaked with his saliva away. I still prefer the pigeon biscuits but will still let him have the rusk again next time.

lenny?? Bree already got bored of the FP piano? It has tons of functions that can grow with a baby leh Are you talking about the 8key FP grand piano?
am so stressed this week
Hubby is leaving for BKK this afternoon and won't be home till Fri, which is the day we leave for our super long US trip. He would have one hour to bath ec and then out we go. And because my MIL is on holiday too her two dogs are at my house.
This means that between Mon to Fri, I would have to take care of
3 dogs and 1 baby ... all by me alone. And I still have not finished making some gifts which I have to bring along.
Have confirmed my return flight back on Northwest airline ETA 2 Dec. Am already praying for a smooth trip back since I would be travelling with BB alone.
Re: travel insurance
for all those mommies travelling with bb. Pls shop around for travel insurance rates. Mine is really exp because
(1) hubby coming back earlier than me. So cannot qualify for the cheaper family plan. Please note that for single trip FAMILY PLAN everyone must fly out and back on the same day. Alot of DIY travel insurance portals are vague on this term. Even the stupid HSBC TI hotline officer screwed up. I asked her again and again and she said yes yes it doesn't matter. I can take single trip family plan. I insisted that she check with her superiors and guess what ... two hours later she called back to apologise. Kenna sai. Imagine I pay 500+ for a W#%%$Y%^ insurance which I would have problem claiming against next time. Idiots. Even the ACE travel insurance fellow was also unsure. A quick check on lots of portals and I realise most did not mention this. So be careful!
(2) I am staying for more than 60 days. Tat means my TI will cost me an arm and a leg. The usual TI max is up to 30 ot 31 days. Subsequently they will charge you for every 7 days. My #$%^% AIA agent initially quoted me $760!!! for 3x individual policies (cannot tae family plan). A 25 day plan for hubby and a 60+ day plan for me and for baby. $760??? She heard my sharp intake of breath and quickly called me back 20min later to say she can give me 10% discount on her own commission. At first I was so touched, only to realise what a fool I was.
My agent kept mom about annual family plan which will cover all of us for $690 for ANY trips made in the next 12 months, plus it won;t matter whether hubby and I travel seperately. This is without a shadow of a doubt way better than the stupid single trip $760 she quoted me. What an idiot man. Only after I shopped around on my own and decided to buy ACE Travel Insurance annual family plan at $550 did she suddenly change her tune and say why not I buy AIA's annual family plan at $690 instead. Too late. SHe has lost my trust instantly. So angry with insurance agents.
morale of the story. Pls don't blindly trust your insurance agents, no matter how good they have been so far. You still have to shop around for your own TI. If not I would have foolishly paid $760 (or $690 after her "generous 10% discount) for a single trip plan when I could have an annual plan for much lesser than that.

alfafa,
Wah... good thing u checked. My travel insurance with charlene cost me $740 for 90 days for S$500,000 coverage for the medical ad accidental dental expenses. haiz... i din think about family plan earlier.. should have gotten that and wouldbe covered for all the malaysia trips as well.. darts.
For your flight back alone. U have already made ur choice to come back on ur own. Dont dwell on it too much and enjoy your holiday. Take things in stride when it happens. That's how i managed getting there and back alone with baby.

alfafa,
your agent is too much...yes. alot of these agents dun do their due duties for us...
your hb need the TI? i wld imagine his co wld have bot annual TI for him and that will include family holiday trips on himself.So you only need to buy for you and gracie. Maybe you wanna ask him to check? (thats what my hb co have for him)

asura,
yah lor. heng I saw the family plans in time. But mine is basic so covers $250k only.
Besides my AIA agent kept stressing me to say that I die die must start a plan 7 days before I travel which was that very day we spoke, so I was almost tempted to just take whatever she proposed. Yah the annual family plan is cheaper for us esp since we would most likely travel sometime mid of next year again. Either to Seoul/Tokyo or to Perth. So this would cover all our trips. And I won;t even have to call them. Btw, for your info, HSBC's annual family plan is $620 for the basic plan. Pretty good too. I took Ace as it is only $550 and their coverage is better than that of HSBC and even AIA's. AIA's annual family plan starts from "superior" level, not basic.
Yah thanks for your tips and encouragement. I travel Northwest before to US and find their service ok. Besides, this trip back on NW will cover my shortfall in NW miles for our next trip to seoul/tokyo hahaha. Was almost going to book a UA flight back (cheapest) until I remembered your post. Told my hubby about what happened to you and he was shocked too.

Ivy,
duh! you might be right. Why didn't I think of that. Damn. Heng I bought an annual family plan so even just for gracie and I alone is already worth it.
Must ask my hubby to check. Aiyayayay fellow mommies who are travelling, must remember to check check and check!

Hey Sportyger, you are welcome. I was clueless about TI plans as it was hubby who usually prepares that bit; he simply buys whatever his friend recommends. Heng I took over this time. $760 for one single trip??!! Xiao!
if your trips are short it might be cheaper to buy single trips. Just make sure that baby is covered as they are the ones most likely to fall sick. And PD fees are expensive everywhere in the world, particular in places like US and Europe. Even the normal GPs are already very exp in these places.
Where are you going to btw?

alfafa - thanks for voicing this up...that AIA insurance agent will have known abt the family plan but choose to keep mum...not practising business etiquettes...good thing u checked ya, if not u will end up paying more than what u supposed to...
speaking of trips, hubby and i actually plan for one but decided to forsake this plan since his mum (caretaker for bb K) feels that he is too young to have his parents leave his side and asked us to wait till baby K is older...and we not bringing bb K on our trip too...i actually mentioned that i can bring Baby K to my mum to help to take care but i tink i can't defy his mum's idea...and hubby oso thinks the same...haiz

Lenny,
'Friend' my foot. Everyone gives that excuse. Said stalker cld v well be the person in qn. But that aside, legally u made no mention of names on the public platform so if said person is thinking of a defamation lawsuit, s/he will have very little/no case to make. If the threat sent on sms speaks of other more intimidating actions, then do make a police report. Remember to keep any and all evidence of such threats from here and now onwards.
Altho freedom of speech exists onb the internet, Like what alfafa demonstrated, no one's words are safe really. That's why we use aliases
do be careful what u reveal from now ya?
Oh, to the person who apparently relayed the information/the actual person: get a life you sad twit.

Sportyger - i also thinking of postponing the music class for Baby K cos he still seems too young to enjoy, cos we went to Kindermusik and he doesn't seem to know whats going on actually...
could you give me the contact number so i can call the person up to enquire if we can go at a later date?
