Bean, personally i dun find that the bottle warmer is useful coz can use normal cup with hot water to warm the milk anyway in my opinion...

i think the steriliser + NB set more worth [email protected] anyway u will be able to use the 3 milk bottles for a long long time..and the bottle brush u can keep and use it when the current one is spoilt. as for pacifier, u can have spare to keep too...

but then again when i went to get the set, i think left 1 set nia so dunno still have or not.

 

[bean_bean]

Shers,
Yah I saw the wet wipes in packs of 3s and 6s. Price is $10.50 and $19.90 respectively.
But actually Taka has a better price. They are selling one refill pack for $3.30. No further discount on the wipes.

 

[bean_bean]

915,
But if you chill milk, you can still warm it using a thermal cup? Will it be not warm enough?

I was at BHG century square. I didn't see the bundle you are talking abt. Only saw the bottle warmer and sterliser bundle.

 

[miracle_babe]

bean, can..last time when i heat my breast milk from the fridge, i merely used the thermal cup with hot water and heat the milk.then if i want it fast, i juz change water.
i find using bottle warmer, takes a long time.

I was at BHG Bugis, left 2 bundles when i went. the sales promoter said while stock lasts. maybe they ran out..maybe u can ask the promoter.

 

[bean_bean]

915,
Which type of thermal cup are you using?

 

[miracle_babe]

i juz got a sms from my fren who juz gave birth to her #2...she said #2 comes faster and earlier...i wonder how true that is..now i am abit kancheong man!

Imagine my fren''s labour is only 1 hour! she said she got contraction this morning and went to see her gynae at 9am then when she stepped out of the clinic, her water bag bursted. then her #2 came out at 1030am! she told me it'd be so fast that i may not react...abit worried man..

 

[miracle_babe]

bean, normal ones..i am using those free thermal cups from company D&D one....heheh...sometimes i also use the stainless steel cup.

 

[bean_bean]

915, okie thanks!!

 

[bean_bean]

915,
My colleague also like when she gave birth to her #2. She was still teaching ballet and she gave birth to her daughter after her classes later that day! Luckily her water bag didn't burst in class!

 

[miracle_babe]

wah..i hope i will at least have some time to react when my #2 comes!
lucky thing ur colleague's water bag din burst in class else she'd be teaching water ballet instead..hee hee

 

[shers]

just got a sms from my sis.. she helps me buy pigeon refill pack.. buy 2 big (3 packs) get 1 (2 pack travel) free.. at $16.20.. good deal?

i also used coy D&D thermal cup.. hehehe..

 

[ppiggypig]

hi mommies, which brand nappy liner is good??

 

[bean_bean]

Shers,
SO in total there are 6 packs excluding the travel pack? Wow, liek that very good deal! Where did she get it from?

 

[jamie_nov]

915: i tot the bottle warmer can heat things up in like 4mins or wat rite? i tot it'd b a gd thing if ur waking up in the nite to do feeding or wat.. no nd so ley chey walk here walk there to get hot water and all dat..

 

[shers]

bean, ya.. in total, there are 6 packs and 2 travel packs at $16.20.. good deal hor..

she mentioned that there is this seller going to her school to sell alot of products. esp tollyjoy, pigeon, pureen, kodomo stuff.. even adult shampoo bath etc also have.. very cheap..

my sis will call the seller and order. not sure she collect in school or what..

 

[bean_bean]

Shers,
How long does pack of wipes last?

 

[shers]

opps.. no more promotion liao..

 

[shers]

bean, hmm.. i dont know le.. hehehe.. for infant, will use more because everytime poo and pee alot.. for toddler, will use lesser because my gal knows how to say 'potty' if she wants to poo..

i think if there is discount, can stock up.. wldnt dry up 1.. but i found that travel pack is good as well.. esp going out and to clean hands..

 

[iewwei]

Hi ladies,

just to share... some info on the baby fair at Expo this weekend

http://imcms2.mediacorp.sg/CMSFileserver/Documents/014/pdf/baby_festival_2009.pdf


Re: Kodomo Bath
which fragrance is nicest? I saw there are 3 types, White/purple and pink? Watson is selling those travel sized ones at $1.95 now (UP: $2.95). they are all sealed up, i'm unable to smell it.

 

[miracle_babe]

Shers, good deal for ur wipes

jamie, my fren lent me the bottle warmer but i never used before. coz even if the warmer says it's going warm up within 4 mins, how to know it's the right heat. sometime baby also cannot wait.
so i prefer to use the manual method...i will turn the bottle ard in the cup then if i want fast, then i change the water..i find that feeling with hands better. but in anycase it's up to individual ba...coz i find the manual method more convenient

 

[shers]

kodomo bath shld smell quite nice.. the bb clothing detergent and powder smell very nice.. maybe u can go ntuc or kiddy palace to smell? hehehe

 

[bean_bean]

Wei,

You are finally in the forum! hahaha nice to see you here!

 

[miracle_babe]

iewwei, i'd probably stick to J&J head to toe or Pureen head to toe for newborns coz i don't know how foamy or soapy the normal kid's bath is. I only switched to Kodomo shampoo and J&J milk bath when my girl is older(like 7 mths onwards)

 

[miracle_babe]

I agree with Shers.. I LOVE the smell of Kodomo's baby clothing detergent!!

 

[shers]

915, refill pack for kodomo is selling at $7.50 at ntuc.. so far, u seen any other places selling cheaper than this price? i need to top up already... when #2 comes, need to use even more

[iewwei]

Pigeon baby wipes seems to be cheaper at Chinatown too, i rememeber it was priced at 9plus for the usual 3 packs package, that was months ago though.

I bet the prices at those shops will be cheaper than NTUC, but not sure if cheaper than BB fair. Was planning to go there one day with my HB to buy all the neccessary stuff before i deliver...

For those who not sure where are the shops, its the building next to OG chinatown, the one with a hawker centre below it, the shops are located at the ends nearer to the road, 2nd and 3rd floor.
