bbmaking,

Ooh .. i can't see below without a mirror now
happy.gif
So i can only do minimal waxing myself ... but tat was a few wks ago ... i doubt i can do it now.

Are your contractions in regular intervals? That time my ctg reading, the highest registered was only abt 40+, so was considered mild.
 


jul,

Oh... ok, cos i'm still halfway packing my hospital bag ... wondering if i've got ALL the receipts in or not. So if that's the case, only the one which states the package will be enough.
 
pegsfur,
my gynae pkg also started quite late. can't remember frm which wk onwards. but they did tell me onli can submit the receipt frm the pkg onwards. those tat we paid cash prior to pkg cannot claim. think it's due to the ceiling or limit of medisave claimable. when i did my pre-admisssion, the hospital staff also told me jus submit the receipt which indicate i hv a pkg can liao.

lol, yeah lor, got to contort into whatever direction just to clean properly.

jul
my hubby also said the same thing - that bb can have another one, but not wife. but hor, i dun think i will ever forgive him if he chose me over bb. imagine waking up and realising no baby after all we have been thru, dun think i will survive this blow after all the trials in this pregnancy *dark thoughts*
 
sorry ladies! my post must be weird haha cos still reading archive!

anyone of you feels baby hiccups in your tummy everyday? Zachary been having 1 - 2 hiccups everyday. can feel the dong... dong... dong... movement when i am resting. feels so cute!

babymaking
oh yah... you are going for c-sect right? then why need to shave?? what is frozen embryos? i saw your fb notes and went to try search around for the meaning of those... besides one, i dont understand what all the others means! googles is also not helpful! but can tell from the note that both of you work very hard for this baby.

Re:milk bags
i got 3 pack of medela (2x 50 + 1 x 25) and 1 pack of blue egg (25 i think). then like 15 ish milk bottle and 6 medela BM storage container. so i better dont stock up any more of them lol incase not much leaking, those can last for a long long time especially i will be SAHM!

Hiaz I guess as mums, we'll aws tell HB to choose BB. But hor, I wonder if HB really agrees to choose BB over us, wonder whether we'll be sad too. Coz machaim we not impt..

pegsfur, irene

We can request for more visits? I rem when we signed the antenatal package, it was stated that extra visits are not covered.

So if I request to have more visits coz not feeling well, or got emergency, I will have to pay right?

My left side is darned painful now. I hope Babylet hasn;t turned ard again & is kicking the bottom left. Coz he hasn;t really been disturbing my top right>
 
pegsfur

Yeah can finish by next week. But also gotta to clean up..

besides, gotta wash my new Karmy PJs, wipe my diaper bag, wash BB clothes, wash BB cot beddings, clean up the cot & pram.. Like a lot to do

i really need to call Alex up and meet up with him to check more about this insurance thingy. till now i still very blur. he will bring all the insurance available from most expensive to cheapest plan right?

sharrel
i puke out everything also after eating fish oil pill. yucks. really trauma about this pill. haiz. but i eat a lots of fish so it should be ok. why not eat more iron rich food like red meat if the pill makes u feel nausea? i think we need to eat iron tablets if not will feel dizzy or something. i havent been eating any supplements for 2 and a half months tho and still the same.

irene
for Ah Wong's package hor, we dont need to pay if sudden visit out of those appointments?!

pinkmama
i was week 36 day 5 on monday and my gynae said that she hope baby will come out this week wor... i wonder how did she know if baby's lung is matured already or not. but i read that if can feel baby's hiccup, then lung is matured?

you are planning to get savings & edu from prudential? someone told me that prudential insurance is more expensive than other company's. donno if true or not.

pegsfur, piggytoh
After you sign up FBI, did you fill up any form so that AXA will call u for the free 6 mths insurance? My EDD is earlier than you and till now no one call me leh!!! *kan cheong* T_T Luckily I go and read archive. else sure miss out!

Regg,

Mattress can be custom made at kiddy palace.
I custom made mine too. Cos those passed down cot the mattress is much smaller the those current selling.

That time kiddy palace with 20% discount i bought the mattress less than $60.00
 
Pegsfur/Reira/Jul, I know if you ask for ah wong outside the clinic hours then definitely will be charged. But I was thinking if we call the clinic before we head down if we got some problem then might not be charged extra.
I didn't try this out though.

Maybe if you really need to go, can call up and ask 1st if you are concerned.

Jul, I cannot imagine not washing my hair for days leh. I think I will have pimples on my scalp.
 
sharon,

May i check with you on the Kamy pjs? Are they full front botton dress type? Cos i bought one from Giant but the front buttons are not low enough...in such, difficult to breast feed also.
 
Piggy, sebamed is good. The price also VERY good.I only use it when my son has sensitive skin and after that switch back to cheaper one.
The sebamed face cream is good too if your baby drools alot. It helps to prevent the rashes around the mouth.
 
Irene,
hahah ya i know so if i wan i will go Chinatown those shop to buy so much cheaper keke... so i hope my baby no sensitive skin dun have to use branded shower
happy.gif
 
shower
just read about this topic and went to call my CL! luckily she knows how to prepare the bathing water if use lemongrass. she suggest buy those "da fong cao" for confinement use from medical hall (about $1.50 a pack), they are in packets so easier to buy and just keep. but she said if i want to use lemon grass also ok, just that it is troublesome cos cannot buy a lot cos fridge might not have space to store. but lemon grass sounds cheaper... 28 days x $1.50 = $42 for those pack ones! aiyo so expensive just for showering.

aiya, forgot to ask her which one is better, lemon grass or the pack one. i think i will ask hubby to buy lemon grass during my hospital stay, when CL is here then ask her.

zen
i am not bringing pajamas with front opening. going to bring sleeveless one then just pull the strap down when bfding. for BW, maybe cos i am quite new to it bah.

pegsfur
your mom is going to do confinement for you ah? thats good! then where will u be living? or ur mom come to ur place everyday? actually were u the

babymaking
i can reach down but cannot see below haha. so i will be using mirror to shave... a bit scared BW will really trigger labour also. but somehow i dont think i can lie there for an hr... i think the lady who did BW for me, do it slowly so that i wont feel pain. those chop chop 20 mins type is "put wax, pull. put wax, pull" type right? like no rest for the skin. ouch... me scared haha.

about kids hor. i find that when they grow up especially boy, might forget about mommy liao. like my hubby lol recently i find myself kept "saying" him cos he say no to his mom when she ask him if wanna go out together for dinner during weekend or not. then again, his mom is naggy... all the time nag about his weight

jul
hubby and i never think about if we are both in danger during labour leh. but we got talk about if both drowning haha he will save baby first lor cos i know how to swim. XD recently, he got ask me "not to leave him and Zachary" cos we talked about some random thing and brought up the fact that my mom pass away from liver cancer at young age. she was only around 48 then and only 3 months time from the day we knew about the cancer and the day she pass away.

DolceVita
Thanks! =)
