ya man, my side here also raining heavily.... i was planning to go back my mum's plc for dinner one, instead of stayin at mil's plc for dinner... but this stupid rain made me stuck here..
btw, i've jus called gynae abt shitting watery and green colour... the nurse told me me it's normal, cos sometimes may be due to too much calcium or iron....
but i was thinking i din take iron pills leh, and i only drank one cup of milk per day leh... hw to exceed the calcium... and today i din drink milk leh... weird...

hello.... today's thread is so fast....
sweethalo, request ur gynae to write a letter, confirming ur EDD and ur hb's particulars. then ur hb can use that letter as a support document when he sends in the deferment - think there is a category which is "wife give birth".
ahnetsan, britax car seats are good from what i heard. i got the britax omega at robinsons. however, do note that the britax sold in singapore is similar to that of australia instead of the usa, uk. so u mite want to try looking at the australia britax web.
weight gain - at least alot of u are tall here. i'm pretty short at 1.54 nia... looking at the mirror just now and realise that my face is getting rounder, neck getting thicker, and my collar bone is disappearing....

sweethalo, just realise u mentioned Aug... i think cannot. think they only defer if it's near to the EDD, before or after.
ya...raining so heavily. going to taka for a walk. thinking of going paragon for soup spoon but with the rain.. argh.

try to defer as soon as possible just in case it gets rejected, then u wana "appeal".
jam75, how u gona ask ur hb to get deferment if he hasnt got the deferment letter?
my hb also got his deferment. but his was supposed to be in jun, a couple of days from my EDD.

oops... sorry to cause a panic for u, bbjun. 
now i m wondering whether my face is rounder cos of water retention or weight gain. anyway... it's either now or later that i will see a round round face, thick thick neck.

ahnetsan, usual price was 459 i think. then they have a 15% (think taka also have). then robinsons card another 5% off the statement. so it's abt 370 i think.
went baby kingdom or hypermart (cant rem). they selling at 399, no extra discount.
cannot hand carry out like a infant carrier. it's a convertible car seat which means can be from newborn to about 18kg (i think so). can recline and use as rear facing for newborn.

Oooooohh, a number of Brazilian advocates! Well, I hope you ladies get bare soon.
bbjun,
agree that getting hairier... but why am I not shedding considerably less hair off my head than before?! Sis says my hair fall used to be terrible as we shared an adjoining toilet. I told her huh? Still the same leh! She said she only finds a few strands at the shower drain. =( AM I GROWING BALD?
creamer,
yeah. WBB's class sounds so much more fun and hands on... Sis didn't have really negative feedback, but she just wasn't raving about it. Said first session was informative but rather boring. I'm not taking up any discount at either hospital for delivery there... so the difference isn't TOO great. 214 for Mt A and 235 for TMC. I guess March is just about right when you think abt it... not too early, not too late.
Especially now that I've just spoken to supervisor and she wants me to hang around til April... I thought I'd be free in April... prob can clear leave nearing end of March. But now can only clear leave End April - May. So I guess later class is good cos I work Sats.
chidori,
has Khaw/Querida reverted to me? Aiyo, such a busy day I haven't checked it out yet. I'll check it and let you know. You can pay me when we meet at the West'ies meetup k. I don't like these fund transfer things. Seldom keep track of acct balance. My hubby is the financial controller. I'm quite laidback abt all these things. =)
createjoy,
wrt steriliser. I think I'll only be doing MAX 2 cycles a day. I'm not that 'hygienic'.
creamer again,
re: noses. Tell you a bad experience yest. [Background: I don't have a delicate little button nose to start with... AND on top of that, I've rosacea on my nose too (red, shiny AND flaky, white oil clots/bumps) =(] A colleague I barely speak with prob just heard tt I was preggers and came over to our side of the office to check things out. She asked if I'm having B/G. I said B. She said, "yeah, can tell. Usually boys will get swollen nose."
WHOA! I TELL YOU! STRAIGHTAWAY I WENT ON RED ALERT. *BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!!!* So sad. Went home and inspected nose... asked hubby, asked colleagues, asked my best friend. All of them said no change leh. So that confirms that I ALWAYS have a swollen nose. *wail*

nozomi,
sweep fringe all back and show off that delicate face and beautiful porcelain skin!!
Anxious,
A belated welcome! I also think your girl is a perfectly acceptable weight at her gestational age. Most of us were abt 300g at +-20 wks and that had gone up into the region of 380 by 21+weeks. Enjoy the pregnancy =)
SeptBrides, WHOA! We have a number of within-days-and-weeks-of-wedding conceptions!
First Mum,
I agree with you. Doubt that prices will be THAT much lower at the BB Fair. Been to Expo fairs a few times and have never come away without feeling disappointed. If there are ANY savings at all, it still wouldn't be a trade-off for the parking and crowd disaster. Imagine a group of mums... the bigger bumps feeling that the smaller bumps should show a bit of respect and move out of the way... *yeech* I say, poor husbands.
sweethalo, your boy is an exhibitionist! Peanut showoff! Heehee... so cute.
Xuan, elephant memory! You and createjoy both...
Mika,
I HAVEN'T regained pre-pregnancy weight YET!! Visit to obgyn at before CNY verified that at Wk 21, I was still 1.5kg lighter than pre-preg. So I lost 3.5 and gained 2. Back to see him again this Fri. I'm guessing I should have 'broken even' or am close to it by now (into Wk 25). Thankfully bump is growing and bb is a good size. So obgyn is pleased with my weight progress and said I'm on track. =)
ahnetsan,
re: leakage. sweethalo is SPOT ON! It was the Sat STRAIGHT after the GJ Gathering. I shared I had been with a student and wee'ed in my knickers after sneezing. =( Thank God for whichever wise guy invented pantyliners. Must do more Kegels. MORE KEGELS! (If can remember) I haven't read on to see if anyone has answered your question, but when you're on the toilet, hold back your wee. That's the muscles to clench to do your Kegels.

ahnetsan, p.s. If you're doing Kegels right, no one will be able to tell. It's an internal set of muscles and doesn't change your posture or facial expression. Just keep practicing cutting of your wee mid-stream. Sometimes during intercourse, we may tend to squeeze those same muscles around hubby's apparatus. Let me know how you go!
junies, poor you. What a horrid sonographer. We were mostly informed of bb's weight for the first time at the detailed/FA scan. Thereafter, my obgyn keeps me updated as to how much bb's estimated weight is at each visit. I usually wear separates, so just lift top and lower the waistband of the bottom for scan...
Re: "Hitting of tummy". My detailed scan sonographer pressed down very firmly on some part of the bump... but it's NOTHING like hitting. HITTING is NOT normal leh. Bring it up to your obgyn..?
Shelisa, it's good to air the area down under to prevent infections and what not... So go commando at home whenever you can!
Ling, yeah lor. I'm putting in my OT today. Been busy at work. Don't always have privilege of coming in. Heehee. Was talking to my supervisor abt tendering resignation today. Then went out to meet a friend for late lunch. Just got back. THANK GOD FOR A SEAT OFFER'ER ON WAY BACK. On way to Bugis there were only bump starers. =)
Aiyo. You ladies are really nailing a stake into my heart. 70kgs. I wish I could BE that weight. Sigh.
Just as well I'm still not putting on much weight or I'll be the ALL-TIME WHALE of JUNE'09 MTBs. *sob sob*
*Yippee! Cassey has finished her OT for the time-being. Go reward myself with some ice-cream =)
