PJPJ,
I intend to get a playpen to double up as a cot. Coz intend to let baby sleep on a bed in future. Prob will have to lay cushions/ pillows on the fall in case she rolls off.
Anyone lets their baby sleep in playpen too?
Keen to check out the playpens from KP. Someone mentioned that as member can enjoy 20%. Is it storewise and how to be a member? Need to pay for membership?
Mickey,
Your daughter so cute. Cried becoz she cant go to sch. Guess she really enjoys sch
Yen,
Your HD boss quite insensitive leh. Ask him to be away when you are pregnant.
yen,
for my co...
if need to go to affected places for offical business...quarantined is paid for by co..
but if go on personal trip...then have to deduct AL...
like what the other ladies suggest...a video confrence or call confrence is much safer...
if really no choice then ask ur hb to check if his co is willing to paid for all expenses incurred if he is to be quarantined at a hotel since u r preggy at home...
Ok, I am going to check out the Hooked on Phonics - 1st graders for reading and also the activity pack that I have gotten for Kai from the spree. Need to get myself into it as Kai is so eager to start on these new activities, he loves Hooked on Phonics stuff as we have used it before in Van.
Cloudme, do they give more discount during robinson sale for medela or even the GSS?
hospital bag
since now ESH provide bb clothings...
except for discharge(me got to wash a set and recieving blanket, a set of mittens and booties...)
my only major need to get is all my stuff...
i have wash all my nursing wear liao and gotten a pk of extra long pad with wings...
and disposable panties gotten a few pks already...
pack my travel toothbrush/etc liao...
will prolly get a few more pk of pads(dun think its enough for 2 wks)...
pris,
so far what i notice for major sales...
medela offer is only 15%(unless for member sales like istean which have additional 5%)
sometimes depend on the dept store...some will label medela as nett price items..
mum&babes(member only 12% max on yellow tags)
if u r thinking of getting bottles(medela storage bottles) kiddy palace's member 20% disc is worth it...
the promo set for pump dun think got further disc...
so far this is the cheapest freestyle(with warranty)
i have seen previous promo set is $988 but of cos the freebies may vary for each promo set
Cloudme, ok. I remember when I was pregnant with Kai, during sale, medela was really worth it.
I gotten alot of glass storage bottles from friends and will be getting more from hospital coz will return to Oz so getting my PISA there at A$450plus registered postal with warranty and I will be using my friend's pump till year-end.
Think of getting the hospital bag ready 1st coz if swine flu really comes to Sg, think it is best to avoid crowded places as the people in Sg are not as hygiene, I have been voiding people coughing and sneezing into me. They gave me funny look and I just stare at them for not covering up their mouths and Kai will be why they did not cover their mouth so rude haahaa.
RE: glass bottles...
i gotten the "earth best" fruit juice for my ger and me going to keep the bottles..
i tried using the bottle with those milk bottle ring+teat and it can be use a a milk bottle...haha
wah!! the power of durians!! (and maybe the corddecepys soup my mil made), baby, from 540gms (below baseline of 600gms) grew to 1.2kg in 4 weeks!!!!! she's now 28 weeks..
dont underestimate the power of 6 seeds of durian.. heee,,
and so sad, my clinic inform me that my dr is also limited to deliver only at TMC, but they told me dont cancel my MAH booking, just in case alert goes to green, then i can continue with MAH...
so i am now also booked for a 4 bedder at TMC... hope i can deliver at MAH though... =(
Cloudme, yes, can use those. Those go to KP to pick up the ring + treat. That's what I do, think will latch on most time so will get the ring + cover to store the ebm.
Smurfy, it is heavy side according to the chart online.
Baby S, I am doing my hospital booking on Monday. So glad to know that bb is growing well haahaa. Cordyceps soup is to "bu" the lungs. Think it is the durians.
personally i like to go for waxing.. cos i know i can nvr do it myself. usually i go revivewellness at tanjong pajar.. for mums who are not working can try as they have offpeak rates. or i have another home based lady in CCK but too far from me.. she used to working in revive but quit..
re: hospital
i jus checked with my gynae.. he is currently restricting to TMC now till the swine flu saga is over.
dolliepollie,
that glass bottles are fruit juice bottles for kids...
i just "recycle" them for coverting them into milk bottles for bbs...(just incase i didn't get enough from hospital)
dollie: my weight increae about 1kg, 2 adys after my 6 seeds of durian... i think baby gained the weight..haha.
oh i asked my dr about the numbness.. he says its just due to stretching of the womb and muscles, nothing to be worried about... unless the numbness spreads and doesnt get better...
Dollie, most prob LA will be limited to deliver there too. I asked the nurses there, according to them, its a directive from TMC to all TWC clinics.. so even my dr's patients from his own clinic, have to go to TMC....
Baby S, I stop all the tonics liao, coz too heaty and bb will be too big for birth. But I do take some cordyceps brewed with water without meat to strengthen the lungs for me and bb haahaaa.
My gynae did not update me the weight of my baby when I go for check up. I shall ask him the next time but he assure me that baby size is normal according to the weeks Im in, not too big not too small. But he did mention that Ive grown 3kg in a month is too much and wants me to eat only when Im hungry and NO durians ! Sad to hear that..
Hi Mummies sorry to intrude - I'm a Mummy from the Jan 2009 thread.
Have brand new baby items here for your newborn which u might need, do take a look. Thanks and enjoy your bundle of joy!
went for checkup on tues, bb is 800g at 25wks. Wonder if anyone else is experiencing loose stools? Have been having this problem over the last 2 weeks, but forgot to ask gynae if it's ok.
For me don't think eating durian will increase baby weight leh. Cos at Wk 26 baby weight 900g. And had been eating durian think 5-6 times. Think the weight go to be....
