dear gals
update: went for fetal heart scan yesterday and DS syndrome risk revised to 1:5000 plus....from high risk to low risk. thk goodness for this scan, we were so happy that i literally jump for joy and cried with relief.
pink, shirley, maybe you want to consider the scan before going for amnio? even though it's not a conclusive diagnostic test like amnio, it decreases the odds of DS.
they basically check the nasal bone, examine the heart structure & blood flow, and bloodflow from umbilical cord to baby.
baby fair
we went to the bb fair in the late afternoon and had problems looking for parking space cos of the NATAS travel fair crowd, those driving tomorrow may want to note that.
when we left ard 6plus, there was a long q of cars trying to get in.
the fair itself was not very impressive, too many booths selling financial prdts and spa, massage services, and little baby prdts.
the freebies for the mag sub was sold out, only left the spa, lego and mothercare set... we wanted the huggies hamper of 3 pkts of diapers but was told it won't be replenish.
drypers was having some sort of promotion and it seems cheap as almost everyone else was grabbing some bags of drypers.
there's a booth selling very cute booties and baby shoes. and another selling babysafe bedding such as mattresses and pillows.
oh yeah, the crowd is full of mummies pushing strollers, so pls be careful yeah..my tummy not showing at all...so had to ward off pple who crowd into my space..almost had an accident with a mummy who pushed her stroller into me, thkfully hubby was fast enuff to stop it.
oh by the way, since there was a huge number of pple with strollers there, we did a mini survey, and it seems the quinny zapp together with the maxi cosi carseat, is one of the most popular strollers for newborn to 6mths old. we counted like more than 10 pple using this stroller, another popular brand is maclaren, but more for older kids.
anyone here using the quinny + maxi cosi combo system - can offer any feedback?
