jurong point? *blink blink* :p

<font color="0077aa">rach</font>
same here.. my boy prefers fist (aka drumstick) and his beanie pillow than pacifier...
he rather lick the cloth (mittens/ pillow case/ our clothing) and skin!

i tell my mom "he jiak poh (eat cloth), jiak qiu (eat hand), jiak la sup... (eat dirt aka "our sweaty skin")
LOL
 
Taime Warehouse Sales

Those that ask, me went there today. Didn't buy much lah. Things not very cheap also. Strollers are cheap though cos got further discounts.

AYE!
as long as everyone's happy...

we want good deals! best buys!... wahaha...

as long got "SALE" we will notice one! :p
 
Pam,

in the begining Rach,Shelled &amp; Jenifur on &amp; off one... and they get over it very fast and back to track again... not to worry for them...

mummies are all bad memories mah... forget &amp; forgive.
 
Jess,
best deal is best deal la, mus see who brought it up first mah...

is like having business side by side. u sell $1, i sell 90cents... even is jus 10cents less, customer oso go to 90cents mah...
 
Pam, good job in being a peacemaker.

Shelled, sorry, I didn't read those posts about sophie, how is that different from other teethers? And may I ask, what is the purpose of a teether?

For those mummies expressing out milk, do you get those powdery kind of residual in your BM? And, is the color of the BM different for each side of your breasts?
 
<font color="0077aa">flower</font>
of cos... im truly appreciative of the best buys and good deals we have here..
even sharing of Sale news and stuff..
i seldom read news one lo..
now bb around cant get out of house easily..

today when it rained cats and dogs, we planned to go out.. worst.. cannot go out at all cos of bb..
im so disappointed.. cannot go gai gai
 
<font face="Comic Sans Ms"><font color="0000ff">Rach</font>

ya.. I was actually gng to do the plush pad tt's why I stayed up till wee hr to call up my girlfren &amp; chase her. Then u jus suddenly post said u wana do so I let it be lor even though I did eventually manage to get a much better deal den yr supplier. In fact I had initially wanted to order from you too but when I realize how much yr supplier is earning per pad.. I decided tt I shld just do my own spree lah. Dun waste my beauty sleep &amp; overseas phone bill mah.. can still benefits other mummy in the forum.


<font color="aa00aa">Angeline</font>

I use scotch tape to seal the liner. Here's e video on how I do it.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8HLga1hX2U


<font color="0000ff">Jul</font>

There's a milkbag organizer from First Few Years.. I got it from Target.com but locally shld hv. I will put all my filled liner inside to freeze. Once frozen, I will put inside ziploc bag &amp; transfer to deep freezer.


<font color="aa00aa">Flower4</font>

Think Lansionh is bigger bah. Sonning &amp; Ling can fill up to 300ml per bag but I've nv try tt w Playtex liner.


<font color="0000ff">Sonning</font>

Playtex is not better than Lanainoh but is kinder to my wallet
happy.gif
I cannot afford to use Lansinoh lah.. I need bout 7-9 pcs a day, too costly in long run. I don't like to freeze too much in 1 bag..I'm worried bout spillage &amp; leakage lor.</font>
 
rach, kiki,

my boy this few days also keep sucking his fingers, suck until here wet there wet. u all push the hand away n stuff the pacifier in. i am worse.... i say NO, push his hand away, open up his finger and beat his hand =P
 
west side gathering
so shall we vote for a date/ time? and venue? :p


1. prettymums
2. jess (unless it rain, then i might not bring bb) : Jpt / wkdays =)
 
Jess,
ya alot of sarcrifices being a mum, company xmas party i oso cant go Sob.. cant get back my old life back,...totally new life, duno this is coming so badz. b4 delivery..
 
<font color="dc143c">Jen</font>
ahh.. icic.. then u should have told me...
then can just let u do it..
coz u said didnt want to trouble ur fren to lug back for u...so i tot u didnt want to trouble ur fren....thats why we do it better...

ok la ok la.. my fault....

next time anything... if someone else is doing it, u all dun ask me for it la..

end of the day, then i still get blamed and shoot at for being KPO...

sigh...
 
Jenifur,
tat cool, i din tink of tap it.. but my per pump session is mor ethen 300ml, i need the size like lansinoh.... but i cannot afford lansinoh.... any other choice u come across tat can have bigger storage of milkbag and yet as cheap as playtex liner,, im crumpsy esp in work place rushing to complet my pumping session &amp; back to rush my work.
 
<font face="Comic Sans ms"><font color="0000ff">Rach</font>

It can really get v frustrating lor. For my case.. you can say you didn't know I was doing it. But for Shelled's case, she was already compiling the list leh.

Furthermore hor.. it's like an "insult" to her. Like u dun trust her deal lor.. can someone who needs to make a profit give u a better deal den those who are helping &amp; nt earning??

Just like the plush pad... yr supplier is really earning alot lor... Can ask her to lower the price so I dun hv to start my own spree
happy.gif
</font>
 
Rach,
alamark.. u cant take words literately la.... at times words inside words too... (in chinese) :p....

overall is totally miscommunication.. :p..

aiyo i think we shld be more straight forwards with our post la.. jus in case like me oso one sotong... see one direction only ;P
 
jen> u dunno where she got her supply frm... so u dunno her margin...
its not what u think...
blame the supplier she's getting frm...
 
mamato6js/Ling

Hope the Balboa sling is really good for u, like it is for me... dun wan u all to waste good $$
happy.gif


Rach,

my daugther also always pull up the pacifier and suck her fist.... think it is normal
happy.gif
 
pam

u wanna buy my super shields? but they're not brand new leh, unlike the airdry bag. i used them a few times b4 i gave up on them.

shelled

aiyah, numerous reasons :

1) they're too big, cover too much of my small boobs
2) they're too slanted, milk drips off the lower edge
3) they're too opaque, i like to stare at my nipples as i pump

haha
 
flower

oops! no need to sterilise tubes one leh. think shelled also sterilised hers n they turned blur too. but think can still use lah.
 
<font color="0000ff">pacifiers</font>
Eh, i sterilise my pacifier, the avent one, is it ok?? i lost the instructions manual, so not sure how many times I should sterilise it...

<font color="0000ff">good buys</font>
I'm sure mommies here benefit A LOT from <font color="0000ff">shelled, Jen &amp; Rach's</font> lobangs...we really appreciate it...THANKS, you three!
I'm sure we will iron this out...
 
jen

i wanted to ask u..

i'm freezing some bm now that sam has cut down his consumption. but i dun have a deep freezer. guess freezing it in my fridge's freezer cpt isn't as 'lasting' with all the opening n closing.

wonder if the lasinoh milkbag can fit inside the milk organiser? n i see that it has a cpt to squash the bag flat as it freezes? the other bags at the front are already frozen? so i shd leave them there n add on new bags, or shd i transfer the frozen ones out to my lock n lock?
 
<font color="dc143c">jenifur</font>
i'm not trying to insult her.. it was never my intention..me here, was innocently trying to see IF i can get something cheaper..
i never doubt her.. just wondering maybe i can get something cheaper..
i never say i confirm can get...

aiyah..my fault la... shouldnt have geh kiang put that statement down..
i havent even go do anything yet...

she said local supplier ma... i tot US direct maybe cheaper if can get it??

anyway... its over... this is VERY frustrating for me too..

I've just called her and asked her...she told me...

so yes now i know..
and its not alot like what u think...
anyway... while trying to get cheaper deals... more stuffs have happened among the different suppliers side...
so... we may all not get the pads afterall, then everyone can get from ur spree liaoz...

we'll wait for news in the next few days...
 
<font face="comic Sans ms"><font color="0000ff">Fower4</font>

Think tt's this blue egg milk bag which is quite cheap but I'm not sure of the filling capacity &amp; quality. Any mummy here tried?</font>

mama6js,
my girl oso on pacifier... but i only use it when she going to sleep. other then that i dun give keke. will wean her off when she reach 6months.
 
<font face="COmic Sans Ms"><font color="0000ff">Kris</font>

Happen to chance upon yr posting bout yr gal's reflux. Did e doc said wat's e cause? Do monitor &amp; dun let e doc just brush it off as UTI. Too much scaring of the kidney will cause it to shrink &amp; lose it's function.

Tt's wat happen to me lor... I suffered for so many years b4 a doc manage to trace my problem &amp; did an emergency op to save my left kidney in a nick of time</font>
 
Jenifur

Doc say my girl kanna UTI coz of the reflux problem, but he say it's a low grade, not the super serious type. She already did her MSU and DMSA scans. Will do yearly ultrasound scan on the kidney just to make sure it's growing well.

No idea why this happens. Somehow i think it's genetic, coz 2 out of 3 of my SIL got UTI, my nephew and my #1 too

But how did you suffer? What are the symptoms you had?
 
Paige
I think tomorrow also too rush for most people too. Oh well, we'll just have to see if the gathering ends up on a weekday or weekend.

In this case, I vote for a Saturday =)

i'm an evil mum. left my boy in his own cot. he keep aiyah aiyah, but i gonna ignore him. cos i told him before 10pm he nv sleep, he still need to go to his own cot n settle himself. =x

hope he dun cry too badly, else i got to play de bad mummy, n hubby got to be de angel =p

steph> haha. juz came back. nothing much. juz went there buy some spare parts for my capella stroller

jenifur> yaya. it was me. wow. playtex with 180ml very big packet hor? lansinoh with 200ml still very flat. keke. maybe if i wanna transport milk i use playtex. but if wanna store better stick to lansinoh. dun haf so much freezer space. now even with lansinoh, my freezer wanna explode liao =p

mamato6js> diff kids diff ba. my boy spits de pacifier out if he really dun wan lo. last nite de pacifier seems to wk when he wake up for milk. gonna try it again tonite. hope it's de same. n hopefully soon he will stop waking up for nite feed =p

bbq98> hah. alot of toys at 30% n 40% discount. but decided not to get any. cos my boy got alot of toys liaos. as for de other stuffs, nothing much to buy oso. n hubby dun seem keen to buy anything, so we only pick up de stroller parts n left. den went parkway eat n walk walk. juz reach hm not long ago =p

paige> isit? cck gathering? haha. ok. i m fine with it if i m not wking n hubby is free to go with me =p

but bottles storage very space consuming. i have like 50 glass bottles of milk i got from hospital with frozen milk in de freezer. took up one layer of my freezer space. den the same amt of space in de freezer can store like 40milk bags, which can store 8L instead of de 5L in bottles.

deebee> de fastest way is to put in water n leave in fridge. like tat not too hot de temp n milk wun spoil so easily. n takes quite fast to thaw. i tried leaving it in fridge n wait for it to thaw. wah i go out come back few hrs, still not thawed -_-

sheryn> meme. i stay bukit batok =p

ya lo. i shuld have gotten de fisher price rocker too. paid 89bucks for a stupid rocker from mothercare -_-"

shelled> hehe. i oso love my super shields even though dey waste abit of milk each time. must b i see too comfortable until milk leaks. haha. but at least my hands are free!!

huichern> ya. strollers really cheap wor. 30% off S705 at 369 is like 269 =p

bbq98> light color milk is foremilk, dark color milk is hind milk. very normal. dun worry. if u pump after latch most likely u get dark color. if u pump before latch den u get light color (more watery) =p

jenifur> got a better deal for de plush pads? let me know k? dun mind gettting one more if it's good =p

is de organiser good? storing inside can make last longer? i currently use toyogo containers which i got to store de milk in de freezer, cos if i close it tight, den not so exposed when i open freezer.

hubby's colleague oso recommended this blue egg milk bag. she say it's very cheap n not bad too =p maybe i shuld get one from her to try =p

girlygirly> i wan a west side gathering. but dun wan jurong pt can? parking not cheap n carpark quite crowded wor =x
