(2009/09) September 2009 MTBs

Gerald - My husband actually requested to the rosterer in Jun for more turnarounds for Aug. But then, his Aug roster sucks as they gave him only 2 turnarounds which are KUL and CGK. You can email the rosterer to request for turnarounds in Sept.

I told him that he die die have to be there when i'm in labour else i can't imagine being all alone in the delivery suite for hours! My husband said that best is for doctor to fix a date to induce so don't have to play the waiting game...

then most mummies just ignore...like machiam never even read the post like that..

i would expect the least to say.. oh.. i can't make it for all the days u stated..rather than to ignore it....
someone has to start off with some days for people to decide ma...
if just ask like that...when will it ever happen??

U also just state a 24th July..only 1 day leh.... u got give mommies chance meh??
the only thing is its a FRIDAY, which some have voiced out just today that they prefer Fridays....

Got.. i post the dates so that u all can voice out ma....
its only today that i realised its die die want Friday...
and i posted the dates like few days back loh...

i posted again for kiki this afternoon...rem???

wah lao..... u cannot take jokes one ah?????????? u think i really go toilet to cry???????????
kaoz.... i didnt know u so serious one leh???
coz most other people dun really miss my posts leh... hahahaha.....except the for BPs...
but many times it happens.... i tell u or ask u something...then u said u never read.........
just seems to me.... somehow my posts to u always goes unread.......................

whatever la... if u want to say its my fault, my double standard... okay.. so be it....


Donuts
I'll pass to u way before 24th de.... most prob once i get the donuts on 15th, (if her HB can pass to me by 15th)
then i'll go by ur place to give u le...coz i dunno after 15th when i'll have car again...coz tummy getting bigger...
and if BH coming so frequent along the way.. how to drive??
Drive halfway...freeze there... hahaha... :p

baby coconuts
Yup... heard also baby coconuts will cause baby to come out cleaner..

<font color="0000ff">weldonmummy></font> didnt receive ur PM.. did u PM shelled?? if you have PM her, its okay.
happy.gif


<font color="0000ff">princess></font> er...pain is not the contractions i think.........
the BH i experienced was more like............... from the left to the right of the tummy squeezing to the center like that....
hard to explain.....

ooh.sama sama la..that time NTUC also selling 6 packs at $19.60 i think...
Giant, Carrefour all selling the 6 packs at $19.60... (if i didnt rem the price wrongly)

young coconuts preferred...
happy.gif

U can start about 4 weeks or 2 weeks bfore ur EDD...
But 4 weeks better..some people say can take 1 everyday.. but i personally think too liang..
i'll prob try for 3 a week.. hehe.. :p

<font color="0000ff">kiki></font> yes... it could be the head or the butt..
happy.gif
been having that on and off...and its getting more frequent as well..
happy.gif


hahaha... my HB says its not real la... how thick our skin is... how to see the foot print!
hahahaa..... photoshop effects.. haha..

<font color="0000ff">paige></font> gotten ur PM..
happy.gif
have replied u.
happy.gif


<font color="0000ff">jenifur></font> i can't take milo... my bb dun like...whenever i take... i'll puke....

<font color="0000ff">itsy></font> recently, i've met many frens...and i have many frens...who are so much smaller in size than me...and gave me a surprise when they didnt even take epidural..
and they all expereinced pain.. but bearable pain....
dun listen to what people say... make a decision urself and think what u want.
happy.gif


Labor is not meant to be a painful thing..some people have it painless..while others have it painful..
its a mindset...we've been told since young its painful...
we expect the pain...and hence it comes..
it's all from the mind..
happy.gif


but if we can have faith to have a supernatural childbirth.. (like the book that a few of us have been reading..)
we know and we are praying and believing for a painless and smooth delivery that'll be fast as well..

My fren just gave birth 1st july..
she was admitted at 11am coz she had contractions.. but not even dilated at all..
by 5.15pm, her princess was out liaoz.. she had a mere 6 hours labor...which means she dilated from 0cm - 10cm in abt 5 hours..
happy.gif

And we were told..that #1 usually takes 10hours..coz 1 hour 1 cm....
I'm not gonna believe in that now...
All these are just theory..
happy.gif


I'm praying for a less than 6 hours delivery too..
happy.gif


i think mama6 has even shorter labours..
happy.gif


<font color="ff0000">3rd Gathering></font> 31st July!!!!
happy.gif
fine with Shokudo.

<font color="0000ff">milkyway></font> what i normally do is i'll open up the forum page... then i'll open another notepad below it... as i read.. i reply...
u think i so good memory to read everything and reply at one go meh? hahaha...

<font color="0000ff">melissa></font> so far nobody mentioned abt trying on yet... so... yah..if there's any more updates on it, i'll let u know.
happy.gif


<font color="0000ff">Gina></font> thanks....
happy.gif
anyway.. shelled is doing the poll now....since my poll is renundant.. hahaa...
 
<font color="ff6000">Rach</font>
I'm glad you realise most mommies didn't respond to your gathering details, which means you DID notice. So why was I the only one being arrowed for not responding to your given dates?! I don't see you addressing other moms and asking them why they "ignore" your post lor.

I'm not going to bother to rebuke your statements one by one like the way you did to mine, because seriously, I'm not so free. Free also got better things to do. If you want to label me as being "too serious" or whatever, go ahead lah. Just because you type a lot of "????????" and "hahahahahaha" doesn't mean I will naturally label you as a joker and not take what you say seriously lor. Although if you DID go toilet and cry over such a small thing, then I really dunno if I should empathise or gloat.

Regarding the important issues:
- My hubs offered to go pick up the donuts/pillows from you, so don't worry about it if you can't get car or not convenient to travel due to BH.
- WeldonMummY has PMed me her Brunei address.
 
Morning all
happy.gif


Ling,
labour is painful or not...like wat other mummies had said it's up to ur mindset...

when i had my #1...
i convinced myself that since our mother's time...
they dun have epi or other things to relieve pain...
if they can endure so can we...
and frankly to said...
mine is not that painful at all...upon 10 i think mine is only a 6...

Good Morning ladies.

Good morning!

Braxton Hicks
i think i experience my first one yesterday nite.. window shopping in Giant hypermart.. then i froze and stood there for a minute.. my belly was very very tight.. i thot bb might be pushing his butt way out of the front of my belly.. but i dun see any lump movement..
and i was telling my hubby on sunday nite " hey i havnt experience any BH yet i think. then he said dun say so soon u might jinx it..." and there i had it..
so how is the feeling like for BH?


donuts collection for west
Any "west-erners" want me to collect on behalf? will be going CCK to my gynea on 30 jul so i can collect from supplier. Can collect from me if outing confirmed on 31 jul or mayeb can meet at jpt =)

<font color="0077aa">Michelle</font>
yea yea.. the coconut to have it during the last trim.. esp the last month =) that what i was told..


<font color="0077aa">flower</font>
some pple tend to be "jealous" dun care about them.. they will "disappear in ur life" when u r on maternity leave..

although my colleagues/ bosses nv say anything, they must be oso mentioning that i will be able to enjoy 4 mth ML while they dun have it last time.. i dun care.. most impt i dun hurt/ depress myself physically/ mentally while wking now.. =)
jiayou! D-day is coming in 2 months~~

I'm going to "disappear" for 6 months after that!!


<font color="0077aa">shelled</font>
thanks for adding me in 31jul poll.. my pay shld come by then and i can eat good food that day :p
Okie for "shokudo" or "marche"? :p
 
gd morning all mummies,

Shelled,
The donut still cheaper than brunei neh. Oh ya the babyvision wholesale expensive than bbmall leh. . Wholesale cost 1 pc $1.20 n bbmall cost 1pc $0.99 + 20% but both the shipping cost usd235 vry expensive lo. My hubby say no worth wor. . So still pending fr order. .

rach,
I only pm u my email address wor. . U didnt received? My email is [email protected]
 
damnn upset yesterday on the way home in MRT.. no one offer me a seat.. not even one.. thru out my journey from outram to pioneer stn... so im really thinking that i look fat instead of preggie...
was feeling my back gonna cracked man...
kao_angry.gif
 
Haha Jess, its common lar. I have gotten so used to it... Now my mentality is: if no one fight for a seat with me good liao! Don't even think of having ppl to give up seats. Sometimes not that we pregnant then must have special privilege but what if the train jerks suddenly?? Sigh.... no choice if we take public transport
 
<font color="0077aa">Meishi</font>
sigh.. we are so chamz.. my back was hurting badly and cannot stand straight and i really feel the need to sit a while.. even though it a 30 mins journey..


<font color="0077aa">Gerald</font>
not sure if it true.. but a lot of pple sayings la.. up to u if u want to believe =)
 
Kiki
Can i add u in my MSN ?

Princess
My DH same as yours. Still think i'm in my 6 mths of preggy haha. When i tell him wat 6 , i 7 liao leh. He was like 'ah so fast ah' :p MEn can be that blur

Ling
All people pain threshold is different. Only when u go thru it yourself then u will know how much you can take lor. I hate it when pple try to force u to embrace their opinion that "if i can do it, so can u attitude" I find it not fair lor

Everyone is different lah. (Sorry this is not aiming at anyone one here who have more than 1 children. Cos though this is my #2 . I still get to hear pple telling what i should do or not to do. ) So piss


Flower
I find females tend to be more jealous lor esp those that have kids but did not manage to enjoy the extra benefits now. So they just nag lor. Try to not listen to those. I mean so jealous they can go get pregnant too lor :p

Shelled
Me ok with both 24 or 31 July. hehe never join the gathering b4, so must meet u gals up b4 i pop. Haha thanks

happy.gif
 
<font color="0000ff">Jess></font> wah... u are fast! hehe..
happy.gif


Alright. I've been told that i've been reported to the admin for organising BP in a non-BP thread...
so who knows how long i'll stil be able to log in.....

jenifur is so right. hah..

and so much for trying to help one another.

so if if u dun see me ard, yup...

but dun worry... all ur donuts once i get from supplier...will pass to respective people..and u can collect from there....

happy.gif
 
Rach,
might need you to pass mine and those that are going through me to Shelled if the meetup is on 31 Jul.. i cant make it on 31 Jul.. or mayb i get from u myself also can.. can let me know when u collect it from the distributor? so i know wat's the best plan.. thanks ar..
 
<font color="0000ff">milkyway></font> if i can pass to her, also can pass to u... coz u both stay so near....
provided u are at home la..
happy.gif


earliest should be wed nite... else thur or dunno when....depending on when the supplier tells me loh..
happy.gif
 
I WANNA GO GATHERING... But dun dare to confirm... both fridays good with me juz that i scare i'm too weak to go or too busy.. so will confirm on that day...
IF i can go on that day things can pass to me lor... heehee provided i go...

WOW Jess fast hand!!..

I think if it is still possible can always leave ur name to Jessie.. coz last round i also leave my name as wait list so can still try till pass 32 weeks!!
 
Just realised that a lot of the moms who posted in the earlier part of the year, dun seem to be posting now hor...

Wonder why...
 
Rach,
ok... u sms me lah.. think Jenifur suggested that u liase over emails rite? think u better do it there otehrwise got banned from entering the threads.. :p
 
BP - there are various ways to do it can set up google, blogs etc then approve the rest to join in only those approve would be entered into our special blogs all updates and payment can state there too... so wouldn't be ban...
 
<font color="0000ff">milkyway></font>
yes yes... now also dunno what can be announced here and what not.
haha..

well... now is see whether the moderator happy with me or not loh... if they dun like me, then they'll banned me lo....

<font color="0000ff">kiddo></font> aiyah... this wasnt a intended BP to start with..... it just gets bigger along the way...

initially we just wanted to get something that's useful to us also...
and because we can get cheaper in bulk...so just sharing lobang ma....

Each donut was $9.60 initially... and because we getting in bulk, we can get it at $8...

its for everyone's benefit wat...
 
so so sorry ladies :p


hee thanks <font color="0077aa">kiddo</font> :p


<font color="0077aa">rach</font>
someone bo liao reported?
dun worry... we can convey by emails.. gotten ur hp no. too le =)
 
<font color="0077aa">Cloudme...

ya.. if they can do it, why cant we? Not goin to tink so much now... just keep a positive mindset throughout. I alr told hb not to give me epi as an alternative way out. I somehow find epi more painful than labour itself aft watching how the epi needle is inserted n administered. heez..</font>
 
Rach
Yeah! Ok ok Can u get my BBmal loot from shelled and I'll collect everything from u in class... Which one is you? :p Till now I still dun know.

Jess
You are fast! Actually they need another mummy but got to be EDD end Sept or Oct.
 
<font color="ff6000">huichern...

well.. I'm keepin a +ve mentality abt labour now but it doesnt mean I'll definately be able to take the pain la.. To me, i took it more as a form of encouragement. Imagine if u alr have the -ve mindset implanted in u, how else do u expect to go thru labour? Haven started alr failed halfway. Ppl say, "Reach for the stars and even if u fall on the clouds, its still not too bad.." u get wat i mean?
happy.gif
</font>
 
<font color="0000ff">itsy></font>okay can....
call me la.. on that day... how to tell u which one is u??

PM me ur number?? I'll PM u mine too..
happy.gif
 
<font color="0077aa">rach / itsy</font>
i was saying during the last outing.. how to identify our sept mommies: wear a rose of choice color somewhere... like blind date.... :D lol

<font color="0077aa">rach</font>
dun care abt them la.. we cant turn back the clock.. but i m truly appreciate for the discount u help us to get!! ;)
hope we can help u to "appeal" of smthing if they really wan to take some actions.
 
<font color="0000ff">Jess></font>
hahaha..when u see a grp of 10 pregnant women.. u know liao loh..
happy.gif


ermm... they dun accept appeal one i think..
hehehe..... just pray for the best.. hehe..
happy.gif
 
I am fine with either fridays leh!! I will opt for 31st July then :p Fine with the usual location.. was thinking if anyone interested in Manhatten Fish Market @ Plaza Singapura? :x

Jess u damn fast leh for the 4d scan.. hahaha..
oh by the way did u get the crib bedding set from BBmall? I still cant decide whether to get or not =\ Is it cheaper to get in SG mah? I like the safari design leh >.< Regarding giving up on seats in MRT/BUS, next time you try rub rub tummy often. it might work :p or at least it worked for me heehee better still stand near the reserved seat. Some ppl just take a longer time to realise we are preggie..

Oh and to sidetrack a bit.. my hub's bday coming.. DUNO what to get him~~ A bit tight to get him gadgets
sad.gif
I basically bought him things like from head to toe before le... (i think) hahaa.. any bright ideas? I bought a cake and brought it to his office last year where they shared the cake before their meeting :x

I for my gynae follow-up yesterday. Then pass by this FIRST YEARS shop. Was so damn happy to see BBmall items :x I went to touch and feel the fabrics of the items i wanted to get.. hahaha like kid like that hahaha -.-"
 
Eh Desitin creamy 4.8oz going for $24, cheap or not ah? See u all get so many the other time hahaa or got cheaper alternatives? :D
