Pegsfur, that time I only give to a few relative who cannot make it for the bb shower, then my neighbours who I know but didn't invite and another 2 boxes for my ex-colleagues who didn't come. Think about 12boxes.
yen, I dunno about most people but I don't understand why come and eat buffet already still must tabao cake lah.

We bought vouchers from Bengawan solo. Can't remember also... So long ago. Don't worry abt that now. Maybe during the confinement, after u send out the invites, rsvp then get a rough idea lor. Or if not, u can decide who are those that you aren't inviting for the shower but will give cake and count the nos. Have to standby some extras in case some pp give u presents so have to return the cake gift. I got presents from the most unexpected pp - Pp that i don't talk to much, nor close to. Some even gave me very old stuff (obviously it's a re-gift). But out of courtesy, we give them the cake cards lor.

oic. haha, we'll never give away our hse key. Then again, my parents are staying with us, so my ILs won't dare anyhow come up my place without letting us know.

Mashy, dh has a third round of buffet at his workplace coz his colleagues all give big ang pow so no choice, I have to bring Kai down to his office.
Mil pestered dh to give her the key.
This time round, I am either holding it at SAFRA club or at a friend's function room.

Mashy, I am thankful I am staying in double storeys if not mil sure always come to stay. I already told dh, no mj at my place, no idols at my place, no staying long term at my places. And dun come and disturb when I am coaching my children if not I will throw them out and also I dun answer calls when I am coaching my children.

i think your mom is very nice leh. If she does confinement for you, she will still want to cook for your dad! if it was me, my hubby can just go and eat outside if i have to do take care of my kid haha
wow... your hubby quite bad leh. let u be in this kind of stress just because he want to see & carry his son as & when he like... i hope he can engage a CL in time bah. you are looking for day time only or? I wonder if my CL's elder sister can do confinement for that month or not. If not can recommend to you but when is your due date?
If I deliver earlier than 1st Aug or something, my CL's elder sis will do confinement for me for a few days first then once my CL finish her job in Malaysia, she will come to SG and do confinement for me. Something like that haha.
baby's first month
this one i dont need to worry about cos MIL seems to want to settle this and pay for it. i dont really plan to do any celebration cos CL leaving soon = no help, dont wanna give myself more things to do. must do this do that... i dont think i can handle it!
btw, so if u are going to send cakes to friends, meaning u have to go to their house and deliver ah? then very time consuming leh! dont understand why need to do this. i think for close friends/relatives to come to my house can liao.

thanks for the link! i went to bought the pigeon spoon feed bottle thingy just now. came back and poured some water inside to try. lol quite fun haha exactly like spoon feeding

piggy,
Yah, i remembered u said u have alot of relatives dats why must hold it seperately
pris,
That's really impolite of the relatives. Last time during our ROM, we had buffet at my parents house and becos my dog hates kids and was a little anti-social, i kept her in my room. But hubby's half-sis kids kept on opening & closing the door to irritate my dog, making her bark.
I told them not to do it cos my dog will bite, which is true, and i dun want them to go crying becos of that. Those kids went to tell their mum, who replied "dun worry, if the dog bite you, we'll beat the dog so that it won't bite again." She said tat in front of me. I felt like bitch-slapping her.
sharon,
How much does safra charge? I'm looking at holding it (if i'm going to celebrate it) at other places other than my home too. I was thinking of holding it at hotel .. of cos not those 5* hotel lah.
My sis had her bday at Quality Hotel during her 21st bday and it was $18++ per person. I thot it was quite reasonable for those who are not inviting alot of relatvies/friends .

SL & irene,
oh ok. that's interesting, cos MIL said it's either full mth celebration OR deliver cakes indiv to relatives. think delivering cakes indiv more time consuming & tiring.
Is it normal/common to have something like a BD cake during 1st mth celebration?

hi SL,
try OG for karmy PJ. my mum bot mine there.
hi reira,
keke...heh heh...np...
hi sharon,
hv u checked out "sweetest moments" for 1st month giveaways? i planned to order from them....very nice packaging and the confectionary is quite nice too...
hi babymaking,
it depends on the family "culture". for my family, the "culture" was to invite the relatives and close frens for meal to celebrate 1st month, then give the cakes to relatives on the spot...(save the trouble of having to deliver)
