go buy my jelly...
(2009/06) June 2009 MTBs
- Thread starter fion
- Start date
oh ok, that would mean that if we start taking our ML on 01 june 2009, it ends on 20 Sep 2009 (sun) which is also Hari Ray Puasa. The on 21 Sep 2009, it will be a govt PH and I can start taking my 6 day SCL on 22 to 29 Sep 2009.This means i go back to work on 30 Sep 2009...
I cant believe govt counts PH in as ML.I though ML is meant to be on your work days and not weekends / PH!!!!

Friso. My boy on similac... till 3 yrs i change to friso. his stools softer and 1 big piece instead of small small piece.
I intend let me girl take friso also. cheaper and it's closer to BM.
As for diapers... my boy tried all brands... drypers, huggies,papmpers... now he's on NTUC when he sleep at night... pampers still the best but 1 piece 50 cents. Huggies also not bad. Drypers no good. my boy legs there become red from the elastic band.

Oh 1 thing to update: Hospital will provide milk in small bottles, depending which brand (rotation) is at the hospital, then they give out to mommies who cannot go on total breast feed. If baby does not drink enough.
In may 2005 is similac at KKH thus my boy went on similac. But I was told after few days if you able to breastfeed, you can stop the formula until you stop breast feeding then give formula (your desired choice) no need stick to similac like me
They provide similac and Pampers during my KKH stay

<font color="cc0099"> sweethalo, some time ago, I decided I wanted pink font ma... so go look for some shade of pink and now use pink
Flu is somewhat better after a horrid night's rest. I woke continually at 1.40, 2.20, 3.40, 4.40, 5.30, 8.30 and 10.30... Had to pee every time but one. Had lower backache and cramps. Paranoia kept setting in as I wondered if I was perhaps going to go into labour shortly. *sheepish smile*
Now I'm contending with phlegmy cough from mucus backflow. Stomach already feeling rather sore from all the sneezing yesterday and now whenever I cough, it hurts. Clinic wants me to see obgyn tmr so I'm going back again.
*Sorry ah, wallowing in the mire of self pity*

<font color="cc0099"> bubu, I'm a water guzzler so peeing lots is something I'm used to. But having said that, closer to term, we'll be peeing even more often and I just couldn't get comfy last night in whatever position. But thank God nothing so far!
Thanks, bbPotato! You doing well thus far?
sweethalo, can't figure out how I got this bug either. And I DO hug stomach when I cough/sneeze. I did all day yesterday. I have to now else it really hurts. Especially the ribcage area, deep in at the underbust, feels SO tender. Maybe obgyn will give me muscle relaxants?!
Baby hasn't been very active today. No usual kicking and punching. Just a bit of squirming and nudging now and then. I hope he'll be better by tmr.
You still Tubbilitis ah!? Longest sustained sufferer man!! You ought be put in the Guinness book of records! *hats off*

Severe coughing fit roused me and I just couldn't get back to sleep after. So woke up to google stuff to ease my mind a little.
bbPotato, ooooohhh... Yami AND Subway! YUM!! The popping will begin shortly on this thread. I have someone in mind that I think might be the first to pop...
But I'll keep that to myself for now.

Hello all,
Good morning! Didn't sleep well too, cos was thinking of work at 3am when I woke up for toilet break! I seriously need to let go my work cos I have this feeling I am popping sooner than what I think previously!
Hotcakes! Ahnetsan, so nice! But I think I am having repeated MS now. No appetite in the morning, cranky and tummy rumbling. Also have headache! Sian!
Creatjoy, I agreed that bb will not wait for us to grow up! This is why I am taking 1 yr off next yr, from 2010 onwards. We have to live with 1 income, no choice! I told hubby managing should be ok, but of cos we have to be realistic. Money isn't a big prob, just be more prudent when spending, is time that I don't have. I wanted to take 2 yrs, but company not willing. So I have to take only 1 yr. My worry is can I not work for 1 yr and stay sane. My bosses are more worried abt that, looking at how I pia at work. But for bb, I just have to lor!

LFB,

oh dear, how come having MS? must eat hor, even if really no appetite.

bbPotato: Wow, happy for you, another 2 weeks!
Yeah, this StdChart really spoilt my day! Another guy called up just now, and repeat again that now the loan rate not so good anymore. Precisely! When I called in Dec 2008, it was good, become my fault that they process it for 4 months!
Createjoy: yeah, just go the interview first, even if you dun wan, at least know how's the market's like and maybe you'll feel better that job is not so difficult to get afterall
By the way, the clinic just called to say that I've to push the visit forward because my gynae is going to MtA for operation. So my gynae still can go MtA,and the nurse also said that they've not received any news that the gynae cannot go other hospital!

jam75 : i just called up mount a and asked why i didnt get confirmation for the pre admission form that i faxed to them 2 weeks earlier. they told me they dont send out confirmation.as long as you fax over to them, they will take it as confirmed at their end.
i also asked if dr woodworth can go to mount a now because of the swine flu and they told me currently, there has been no restriction from MOH to restrict gynaes to only 1 hospital.if in future, the swine flu gets worse, then MOH will issue out the restriction on gynes but as of right now, nothing has been done yet.
i also called TMC to check on my pre-admission form that i faxed to them and they told me the same thing.
do you think dr woodworth told us he cannot go to mount a because he die die hates mount a?

Ahnetsan,
I am siao one! B4 I change job scope 2 years ago, I will grine teeth every night! I will have sleepless sunday night. Now that time is running up and work is piling up, I am getting nervous! That's why it is not easy for me to give up work. Honestly, I need to treat myself better. If I tell you I will semi work when I am on childcare leave, you will say I xiao!
