mashy,
U r early
I woke up at 8 cos the stupid neighbour upstairs always wash her clothes so early in the morning and when she hangs her laundry to dry, she'll definitely make alot of noise de. I purposely stood at the window to see if she sees me, den i'm gonna tell her to do it gently. Or else next time bb will definitely get a scare from the bamboo poles knocking on the hanger. It's damn loud leh.

Seems like we are all suffering from crazy neightbours!

Altho i doubt the spore traffic police actually summon u even though it's written in the law, i feel that it's still safer to put your bb in the car seat. Perhaps talk to your hb again?
perhaps u wanna go back to kidzloft to get the discounted one? It's clearance stock, so no need the 50%. Maybe can call them and ask when's the expiry date of the carseat. When i left that place, i think i saw 2-3 on clearance.

U bot the Maxi Cosi Dori car seat from Spring maternity at $238 right? I think I saw it tdy at the AMK Hub branch. But there's an option to pay $299 to include the car seat protector. Did u get that?
mashy
I still dun understand why there's a Safe & Sound brand marketed under the Britax brand. Can't get a straight answer from the saleperson.

i've no idea either... Perhaps Pris might know since Britax is a Aust brand? I know Cosco and Safety First also belong to the same company.

morning gals
personally i find that a baby carrier is not very useful 1) weather too hot to have bb stick to you when carrying, 2) weight of bb is not good for adult, 3) bb falling off (esp sarong type sling) 4) used for short period of time (up to 6-9 mths only)
However hubby was saying that we should get a baby carrier - anyone has any recommendations?
So what are the advantages of having a baby carier and what brands/size would you all recommend for a 1.9m tall adult? Any suggestions appreciated.

Jules, my boy had heat rashes too, i am applying medicine (a cream) given by PD. That cream can be bought over the counter at most of the pharmacy.
I will let u know the name.
Started tat time, we apply powder on him, but PD said, if we are using powder specially on those about to dry off rashes, will made the baby very itch.

I envy u leh. HUbby has decided to tear down the MBR walk-in cabinet & put in normal cupboards & shift our bed there so that we will occupy the MBR, leaving the present BR for Babylet.
Very stressed leh, now need to get contractor, shift things, do reno.. Think no point setting up bed or washing anything until the reno is done. Think shd be end-Jul then can complete. Sian..

any brands/models to recommend? the ones i saw like too small for hubby to use. I still prefer bb in pram/stroller. don't want to have the habit of carrying bb all the time whether inside or outside. but since hubby insist...so no choice will look for a bb carier for him to carry.

I've never tried any carrier b4 as i'm a 1st time mummy oso
But it seems tat Ergo was quite ok .. cos alot of us ordered it cheaply from kiki's taobao spree. Another brand which i hear frequently is Baby Bjorn and Beco I think.
Haha .. i personally quite like carrier, cos the bb is close to me, easier to talk to bb ... hahaa .. maybe i too talkative lah

baby s,

Last time (when we were still on talking terms) i told her not to do that cos we live on the 16th floor. Guess wat she said? She said,"why cannot? everyone is doing it wat?" U see lah, she is 1 of those inconsiderate people all of us hate.

babyS,
yeah lor he's tall and round as well - so got to hunt around for the right fit for him..i'm thinking US brands got higher chance of getting a carrier his size.
most prob if it fits him, it won't fits me.
yr upstair neighbour really one of a kind - for me, i dun hang clothes outside as i got a dryer, but since MIL move in (& she taught maid to hang clothes outside), MIl often tangles with the upstairs neighbours for hanging dripping wet clothes, got once they even throw out leftover curry etc. yucks.

MIL & SIL will sure nag one. FIL wun say anything, he doesn't interfere with our decisions. What I find strange is that as Christians, my MIL & SIL can be pantang. Hubby says dun tell them until it's done. Possible meh??? And even when it's done, they will nag & nag. But nvm lah, if we gotta do it, we will do it!

That's the mentality of a lot of pple. Other pple do, I also do. So other pple dun wring clothes dry, I also. If not I "lugi" coz I do extra mah.
But hor.. at the risk of sounding non-PC, a lot more women than men are so "calculative"

Hey, last time i'm oso like u de .. didn't know how to engage with kids or how to talk to them. But after i got my dog, it came 'naturally', cos i always baby-talk with my dog. Maybe becos no one at home to talk to me .... hahahaa ... so i talk to my dog.
- If she's barking, i'll ask 'who's dat? who's at the door?'
- If i'm drinking milk, i'll ask her 'U want milk-milk? Can share with mummy u know?'
- If she did something correctly like peeing rite on the newspaper, i'll praise her 'Dat's a good girl .. come, mummy sayang'
Over time, it'll come naturally

I guess whether wat religion, they are still chinese mah, and chinese always believe 'ning ke xing qi you, bu ke xing qi wu.'
Just to tell u a little story dat happened to me. When i was borned, 1 of my foot was crooked. My parents were very sad and when my grandpa heard of it, he asked them if they've done any shifting of furniture or nailed anything. My father den remembered he had install the wall fan recently, den my grandpa asked him to take it down. My father did.
Within days, my foot was ok!!!! My mum said even the doc was surprised
Well, i dunno to believe it or not lah, cos i'm not a particularly superstitious person ... it cld be coincidence, but nobody can explain why my foot was ok so fast.

Hiaz.. I know the Chinese thing lah. But hor, as Christians, when u "better be safe than sorry", it means u r rejecting God liao. Anyway not to go into theology or anything here, I know they SURE blame anything on the reno one.
But I gotta do what's right for me, so bobian go ahead lor. If we can't get a contractor to do it on time, or we can't afford the budget, that's God's will that I dun do the reno now lor haha.
