(2009/08) August 2009 MTBs

Baby S, Dr Wong told me since I have a balanced diet and lots of fish in my diet, I just continue with my iron-folic pill and no need to have multi-vit and fish oil.
 


BabyS,
my GP said that some ppl like me will get headache from fish oils(i got frequent headache at each pregnancy...so she think it's related to fish oil)...
and personally she dun encourage ppl to take fish oil...
 
BabyS
agree with Pris.. my 1st pregnancy.. i was oso not prescribed fish oils... doc told me if i eat fish about 3x a day good enough.. maybe market is bad these days.. this time round... she follows the trend and prescribe for me? :x
 
babyS

how advanced is your friend? I only got prescribed fish oil in 2nd trimester. And when i was on multivits, i was told to continue with the folic acid as well coz maybe the dose in the multivits for folic acid is not high enough.
 
baby s,
I oso wasn't prescribed fish oils. Now i'm only taking multi vits and calcium if i'm not drinking milk.

cloudme,
Why your doc dun encourage to take fish oil? I thot it's good for bb's brains leh.
 
Gd morning....

I have the cheeky bon bon nursing pillow. Is it useful? Cos never use it for #1. So now can consider to use it for #2.

Mashy

Recently my leg alway cramp when I sleep leh. Almost of the same feeling as how u feel. Than after that feel v painful..... I even have backache leh. Don't know will the pre-natal massage help to relieve the pain....
 
BabyS,
My gynae does not believe in supplements if my diet is balanced. So far only gave me folate ( in first trimester) and calcium. I, being KS, bought prenatal DHA supplements on recommendations from a pregnant colleague.
 
Babys

Not all gynae will give fish oil. My previous gynae don't also. Ask him is it neccessary he say no need.

Btw my gynae didn't even give me calcium leh. So I brought myself cos I never drink milk.
 
kiki:
It is not easy to stay within the 7kg weight gain. I have already gained 5kg and it feels like the baby is still growing (and more rapidly now). Think my poor body is having difficulties handling this gain - feels tired/breathless with a little exertion, legs getting aching and tired easily, skin getting stretched like never before etc. My aim is not to gain a total of 10-12kg.

I went to see the actual thing already. no, it's not big actually. It's the size of a normal backpack. And the mini one is good enough for my boy to carry his own barang barang if he wants.

the active child could it be due to pao sheng? my CL told me not to drink too much pao sheng during pregnancy otherwise bbs will be very active.. for me.. once bitten twice shy... true or not.. i am not gonna take in too much ..oh i want to mention, i went into ur blog hor... ur girl very pretty... with her double eye lids
 
weishy

that backpack is quite light weight. That's why i'm keen on it. haha. First thing must check is how heavy the bag is without anything in it.

I checked ard, even normal backpacks also ex. Esp the good & lightwt ones. The cheaper ones are very heavy. Plus this one has lots of compartments to org my things, that's why i like it.
happy.gif
And of course the zip on/off mini backpack. At least this one can ensure that i will use this for a long time. When my kids don't need the diaper bag, the small bag will serve as a backpack for my #2 and the big one for #1/me.

Thanks!!
 
smurfy

your boy younger mah. Right now, we're only carrying my boy's bag coz nothing much to carry anymore. It kept shrinking as he grows older.

But we remembered how much we needed to carry when he was younger esp when he started taking solids. So better get a bigger bag. And coz it's versatile, as #2 grow older, i can shrink from 1 big bag + 1 small bag to 1 big bag, then eventually to 1 small bag only.

smurfy:no le no pao sheng for me ....me dunno hwo to take it ma....sua ku :p

mashy:ya hv to chk the weight 1st better to play safe.....cos nt cheap le,to me la
happy.gif


true also those NIKE etc ones also nt cheap....how about from taobao?????ntohign interesting????should be cheaper.


yen:can chk kiki's acc number on the blog
happy.gif
 
weishy

prob with taobao is that u can't see the feel the thing. So u can't tell how heavy it is either. Since weight is a criteria, i can't get from there lor.

Half price abt $74 mah, so still ok coz i went hunting ard for light backpacks (like deuter) all more ex.

I was contemplating the allerhand ones too but find them too heavy.
 
i dunno whether u girls have discussed this before.. but would like to ask (again)...

any of u feel ur tummy very very heavy at certain parts of the day..and every step u think is very tiring.. (i mean i am very energetic most part of the day and walks n moves very fast).. but i think come evening time... after dinner... i will feel very very heavy and hard to move ard..
 
mashy:how about samsonite????me goign to hk soon......got outlet near my house...maybe u wan to show me the design u wna t i go buy for u
happy.gif
 
weishyyyyyyyyy
i wanna samsonite turtle bag for the kiddo!!!! u know last time sg got show one AH-wang show.. he carry a silly looking turtle bag? can help me check out the price?S
 
weishy: Thanks for telling me..I am searching for her bank a/c high and low from her blog. Then I finally found it...nowadays very cock-eye...haha
 
smurfy:ya they hv in hkg....outlet i dunno hv to chk there and then looooo....some mommies told me soemtimes sg hv sale also cheap for samsonite.

the trolley back i can get like 10% so nto so cheap either....company purchase
 
smurfy
i've to use backpack.
sad.gif
Coz i've to sling bb, carry diaper bag and hold my boy's hand. Just imagine that. So it has to be a backpack so that i can have my hands free. I think carters only sell the sling bags. Like u say, allerhand is ex & their backpack is so heavy. The GR8x one is so much cheaper.

weishy

samsonite very ex right? I want the samsonite baby bag too but they don't sell in singapore. And they've stopped carrying the cute animal bags.
sad.gif


can also help me check the price for the animal bags? thx!
