Ahnetsan,
I am controlling buying now. I read from other threads that bb grow out of their clothings super fast and I am afraid I don't have that many occasions for him to wear leh! The recent buys are braun thermometer and medela assessories. All from spree. I must control already! Today go parentcraft centre also spent almost 70 bucks on bathing thermometer and fennel wraps! I think my money flows away like water now!
The pain for labour think very very much different! I think the pain is definitely much much more! I have 2 kinds of colleagues. One side told me just opt for epi, don't need to think. Another side said try natural, get a feel of real labour! You leh? I haven't decide, dunno I can tahan or not!

haha, i was thinking of buying the cloth books though. not gg to buy any more clothes liao.
wah u even bot bathing thermometer sia. wat's fennel wrap for?
for me, my gynae is rather anti epidural one. he prefers me to take the gas and the jab only.. i also dunno. im scared of the epidural jab and im also scared of the feeling of without it.
so i also dunno how.

TubbyMummy: I also siah by the Friven & Co pamplet! Wanna buy the fruit fork... haha, maybe they have baby cot bedsheet as well? Haven't got the mattress yet, was telling hubby kiddy palace so near, can even buy when the baby comes home 
LFB: with GD, your baby could be bigger size leh, so might outgrown the clothing even faster! Better stop buying NB clothing
I'm opting for natural birth, just had a talked with my colleague, his wife gave birth to 2 girls, both natural, some more her first baby was in breech position!

createjoy, I can't shop lah, only feel super tempted nia... Don't regret your decision to leave your job, cos if it was very stressful, that is in no way good for you and your baby. You can always return to work maybe when baby is 6mths old or something. The loss of income is not nice (I also want my own income...), but you won't notice it soon when baby comes along, and you'll be too busy anyway!
Cheer up!
sweethalo, mask lady still hasn't replied, and she also hasn't posted on her thread since late afternoon. I'm gonna SMS her now.

createjoy: The gynae who did the breech birth natually is John Tee at KKH, when the staff found out that the baby is breeched, they informed the gynae immediately and push her into operation ward. But the gynae told them dun do anything yet as the baby is not big size (2+kg) and might be able to birth naturally. My colleague was so pleased with him that for his second gal, he go straight to that gynae at KKH without knowing that this way will cost them more
My hubby also bought PruCash from his agent friend, and lose money as well. Now this friend quit, he's transfer this back to our existing agent. He says it's just a forced saving plan, can't do much anyway.
Hope you feel better after letting out in this forum, although money is an issue, there's always ways to save. I'm still working so do not have those feeling. Just don't keep to yourself ok?
I do tried to get as much second hand things as possible, like cot bed, car seat, clothings, even my maternity clothes. Have been telling my colleague I welcome any 2nd hand things as well.

Hi all,
super heavy rain! Made me call cab to go to work! Just had my nice nice cereal! Yummy!
Ahnetsan, the bath themometer is for the room and water baby bathe in. Apparently there is this certain temp(think 38) that is the best. Can also double as room themometer. $40! So ex, but no choice! My finger not natural themometer, better spent money! I was reading some old Motherhood etc mags(as far as 1997!)yesterday. The strange thing is except for fashion(had a good laugh at all the corny styles and poses)the rest of info still applicable leh. Even for birthing choices! Think I will go for Epi eventually!
Dolly, ya lor, that's why I am watching my diet like nobody's business! Thank goodness I am not that tham giak! If not I sure super miserable! God is always good, let me enjoy cooking. So when I crave something, I will google for healthy version and cook the food. But only when I am super free or on weekends! Now I stop all buying for clothes. Must focus on bb arriving and also handing over work!

I'm a SAHM at the moment... still got about 1 mth before I deliver. Company in bad shape so retrenched me. Anyway, I took it as an opportunity to spend more time resting and take care of my boy until my girl is out.
Didn't sleep well today due to the heat so my back is aching and tummy feels funny, I'm afraid of drinking milk so early in the morning, havent ate a single thing yet.
Still thinking what brand of wipes and shampoo to use on my girl. JnJ head to toe seems dry, pureen too. I wonder where got sell kodomo head to toe any feedback?
Annie: I recieve your number, will reply with mine shortly...
Lazy morning for me... I might go back sleep soon since my boy's at childcare... zzzzzz

qi7,
I'm July MTB. So bad, retrenched u at this time. Did they compensate you? 4 mths maternity leave + other benefits?
My company also not doing good. I am not sure to take 16 weeks maternity leave or 12 weeks first. If they retrench me after i return from my 12 weeks maternity leave, what will happen to my last 4 weeks of maternity leave? Do you know? Can I write to my HR and ask?

Hi everyone, I noticed that some mummies are looking at getting some insurance. Would like to share that all newborns, whether Singaporeans or Permanent Residents, would be offered Medishield on an opt-out basis. The cost is $30 per year and will be borne by the Father's Medisave Account. read more http://www.hospitals.sg/medishield-insurance-for-newborns

Createjoy,don't feel sad.. me in your group too.. Now go out buy things also need to think twice except buy for bb will directly buy.. Of course if we all still full time working now then will financial will be more stable.. but before we decided to resign from the company,we already think carefully liao.. so be happy,we don't have much extra $$ for saving but we will have precious moment with our BB.. ;D
