haha tas,
me 1st time mummy, so everything goes (just in case) need mah. that list is consolidated from the various lists other mummies have provided.

bb going home clothes
hmm what i heard is that bb must be in NEW clothes when going home from hospital, but at home must wear hand me downs for a healthy n guai bb. old wives tale.

but hor...i rather bb wear something nice all the time :p
 


piggytoh
Yeah I wanna get capella S228 but then design is not good right for 08 version right? Dont remember what it was but some safety issue?

yen
Mrs Wong used Avent. This is the one she was using http://www.ciao.co.uk/Avent_Baby_Body_Hair_Wash__6234977 but i think just get any non-rinse is good enough.

wearing pass down clothes
If this will really make baby guai guai hor, then what happen if no pass me down clothes? =( I don't know anyone that can give me any pass me down leh! Hopefully it is just another old wives tale!
 
When my #1 discharge, I also let her wear new clothing leh. Never heard before must wear pass down clothes....

Pris

Stay positive. Your hubby will sure be fine. take care.... Will sure pray for u.
 
Thanks ladies.

Probably need sometimes away to pray for my dh and also to really rest well. Feeling really tired and burnout by the pile of damn shits and messes that I have cleared.

For handme down clothing, it has worked with Kai. The clothes that I have was given to me by a churchfriend who has washed it and passed to me to bring for Kai at the hospital. And at home, we used handme down from friends too and only got those going out clothes new for Kai. So it will be the same for #2, in fact, I am not buying much going out clothes for #2 as bb outgrow very fast.

Regg and Kikilala, will try to go to the atm to do the fund trfrs soon.
 
Jia you, pris

just to share, i didn't let #1 wear any hand-me-downs (all her clothes were brand new!) and she was a relatively easy bb... and besides, i dun believe in all these old wives tales! :p

however, #2 will have to wear some of jie-jie's clothes (neutral color ones) since it makes economical sense! don't think he needs nice new clothes in the early months since i can't quite figure out how to go out with an active toddler and a relatively new baby! :p

pris, hang in there - will keep you in my prayers. so far, this is not a very smooth year for me either (work wise, maid issues, money issues, etc etc) so really need to focus and keep HIM in my prayers to tide over the period. sigh... what doesn't break u makes u stronger, don't you agree?

talking abt J&J - they normally have a warehouse sale in dec (in int'l biz park, near IMM) and that's usually when i stock up on the wipes (i buy by cartons) and shampoo etc. at the beginning, wipes used up very fast (1 pack in a couple of days) coz my #1 pooped practically every hour or two! but slowly become once a day so one pack can last a month even!

pris:will do my prayers for u (amitabha)

Hi ladies

Back from Sentosa. Felt like i've been to india instead. So many indians there! And they're so rough, push pp ard etc. Argh.

Siloso Beach Hotel is ok, but the food sucks. Got breakfast & lunch included, but they're so boring and there's plenty of flies & mossies ard. well, at least we're kind of near nature since we saw so many squirrels & a peacock while having our meals there.

Altho there's a nice waterfall/slide at the pool, my boy kind of chickened out. So end up we just floated ard in a tyre tube provided by the hotel. But ok lah, we still enjoyed the time in the pool and the beach just opposite. But coz the beach is next to a club, there's cigarette butts on every inch of the beach.
sad.gif
Not exactly a great place for young kids.

I don't think I wanna go back Sentosa again until perhaps when the universal studios is there. It's so so sorching hot!!!!!

Now i just need another hols to recuperate from this hols. hahaa.

Re: Fisherprice Sale
Went on Thurs morning. Didn't see any jumperoos and rockers then, but we spent like $200+ on toys! The toys are in very good condition with packaging intact and very cheap. They're not old stocks but those that can still be found in toys r us. Checked out one of the toys cost $80 at toys r us, but selling at only $20 at the warehouse sale. Needless to say, we stocked up our storage worth of christmas/birthday presents.
happy.gif
We also bought a fisherprice digital camera at $80 for my boy to learn to take photos. My hb said he saw it selling a $150+ before.
 
mashy:wow great deals u've got!!!!!

too bad sentosa doesnt turn out just as fun.....at least its a mini one :p

me havent gone for mine yet
sad.gif
 
Just got back from week 28 check up. Zachary is slightly heavy again. First measurement was 1263g, 2nd measurement was 1440g. @_@ So his weight is between 1300 - 1400g. I have to cut down on carbo, snacks, sweet incase baby grow too big!
 
weishy,
lucas is so cute...he muz be shy so covering himself up

reira,
congrats! zachary is growing well
im looking forward to my visit in 2 weeks time...will be 28 weeks by then
 
Reira,
hee congrats all ur intake goes to the baby
happy.gif

the Capella 08 version actually ok la jus tt the side of the seat not cover up u can jus use cloth to cover up n it so cheap but up to u la:p
 
sharon
atfirst when my gynae saw my weight drop, she asked if i was on diet! but when she sees baby's weight, she told me not to eat too much carbo, cakes, snacks, sweets ect. right after the check up, i wanted to drink sprite and hubby was like no sprite!!! but i still drank half a cup anyway.

piggytoh
haha yeah, my boy totally absorb whatever I ate. now i am a bit worried! maybe my boy is the type that gets fat easily... waa i dont want my boy to be like daddy and mommy. =( this time i lost 1.2kg but still i am very heavy cos i was already obese before preggie.

GD
I was quite worried my boy is so big cos I might have GD but gynae told me that I don't have to worry because i am not gaining any weight, urine test is ok and no family history. so i suppose there is a risk of GD if baby grow very big and mommy gain lots of weight?
 
Reira

I just checked with my friend who used the same CL. Avg 3 bottles. I am going to ask DH to start buying at duty free.

Any recommendation for bb detergent & softener? Got loads of hand me down bb clothes so thot can start washing when free.
 
pink:no need to wash so early la maybe 36 weeks or so...if nto sin weather...humidity will cause them to hv smell....

SL recommended me the laundry detergent and it can be use for bbs
happy.gif
chemical free

SL:ya la......btu doc was patient though

Pinkmama

3 bottles... is a lot leh. That time i only use 1 bottle of DOM n 1 bottle of brandy only leh. Think never even finish the whole bottle. If u going to breastfeed, not advisable to take so much liquar leh.
 
Hi everyone,

Me back from long MIA. Very busy at work till no time at all for anything except eat sleep and play with no 1.

Just curious, anyone not having confinement lady and catering confimnement food?
 
Reira, i have the same problem of no pass down clothes.. in fact, all the clothes i hv r brand new ones... omg.. stress..

as for breast pumps, i order avent too n hope it will serve me well...

michele, i doubt i will hv confinement lady too and i believe i gonna do my own washing n lots of other household chores as my MIL is not really helpful.. btw, how u preparing ur meals and others?
 
Reira/mashy, how's ur bb wt nw?? i am putting on so little n this is scaring me... i wonder how i can increase more wt and forward them to my bb

no, not catering confinement food - most probably follow the receipes and cook my own. DH said he will cook for me before he goes to work but i doubt it - can't even get him to wake up 5 mins earlier to give me a ride on normal days! :p
