thanks for replying for me

bbq
newton kindy is in newton lor haha...

eerr... i think kiasuism has nothing to do with the parents financial status leh. i know of some not so rich ones but also v kiasu. i think ultimately we all want the best for our children but to what degree we need to know the limit lor.

i hv frd whose kids r in competitive school now in lower primary already planning how to get her kids to the dream sec school of her choice.

for me, as long as kids in top 3 can alre3ady! haha... just joking!

you're not suaku lah..i also didn't know until my hb told me. also, u can only take the bb's passport on a white background, other patterns or colours not accepted i think.

i also kanna poo on by my gal abt 3 times todate! lucky for me, its always at home and has not happened outside. it always happens when i'm feeding her, then i think its the position or what, got hole at the back so when she lets out an extra big one, it will shoot out!

rach
wow! u can impromptu from yishun run until parkway parade?? salute u!

bbq98
serious? ppl book for their infants BEFORE they're born? so kiasu one ah! but K1 is 5 yrs old then start rite? now most of our babies less then 4 mths. don't tell me got to book now in adv 5 yrs????! don't scare me, i'm feeling abit stressed now. haha... or do u mean pre-nursery which starts at 18 mths? actually i like the idea of home schooling, but in sg its not really allowed rite? or is it?

rach
northpt sakae sushi is very small rite? hmm...nv tried the northpt one before so can't quite remember. sembawang one is quite big i think. anyways, i chin chye...so are u gonna plan for a sushi buffet outing? next thurs i free! :p
 
oh! i was at metro causeway point earlier and i saw they sell sophie there leh! didn't know that. besides sophie there's a whole range of vulli toys too. my hb wanted to buy another small vulli toy for our gal...31+ bucks! i said no. 1 sophie is enough! :p
 
Kiki, yes, that's what the people at the infantcare told me. The parents already registered for a place before the babies were born. Home schooling is allowed but I think there are a lot of "rules" to follow.
 
Mama to 6J, I was just joking about the rich men being kiasu statement - made this statement based on the fact that the 3 child care that you and Angie mentioned are located in rich men's areas.
 
Jul
oh so ur sam is also many hands many legs one cant keep still during feeding la! my maid said once he was flapping his hands so hard the milk bottle flew!

bbq
our east area also got quite a few popular kindy thats always full house and need advanced booking but not so kua zhang 5 yrs in advance la.

i think for daddies to be able to join, the evening slot will be better??
so that they can come after work or can come to pick up the babies after work etc..
happy.gif

<font color="dc143c">kiki</font>

Northpoint has revamped u know??

its open concept now..and much bigger..
happy.gif

sembawang?? u mean sun plaza??

i'm fine with sun plaza or Northpoint depending on the attendees.. coz i've never been to Sun Plaza's.. but causeway point confirmed is small if we are talking abt bringing babies..
i was there with a mummy when we were in our last trim... when i sit in, my tummy was touching the table loh.. i had to sit sraight throughout to prevent my tummy from hitting the table! LOLL!!

<font color="0000ff">Rach</font> I went over to yishun to collect my BO as i need it on sunday, but the NCBO hasn't arrived, so i asked alice to pass it to you, then i'll get it from you together with the leg warmers, ok? Thanks!!
 
rach and prettymums,
i was at sakae sushi at causeway point for dinner today! been eating a lot of jap food recently cos #1 likes udon.

bbq,
i was on the waiting list for my infant care centre cos i only expressed interest in my third trimester. but later the school changed principal and new principal suddenly said that there's a space for my boy in jan.

angel,
my boy will definately nap after his milk and bath at approx 9am in the morning. thereafter the nap schedule for the rest of the day is erratic like marc. if he's at home the whole day. he'll take short 1/2 cat naps between milk feeds. if he's outside with me he'll be able to sleep for 2-3 hours in the carrier. no fixed timing for his nap.

girly,
congrats for the biz! i shall offer you a little support by getting the cartoon hankies from you since i obviously can't get any strawberry shortcake clothing for my boys. shall wait for your tom and jerry collection before i post on your other thread.
 
tlisa
Ya loh. Almost full leh. My husband says I can water plants with them or to sell them out. He making me sound like a cow. Haha...

I will be going back to work on Dec 29. But intend to quit my job in 2 weeks time. :p
 
sandwich
You are making me drool. I asked my husband to go Lot 1 to eat sushi. But he says he has his stir-fry beef at home. So no sushi for me.

So are we going to sushi next week? Can don't go so far? :p Haven't try bringing my son out taking MRT. Scared.
 
prettymums,
if you're interested to take the train down to clementi, the sakae sushi opposite clementi MRT station is actually having a promotion. coloured plates (other than blue and red) are at $1 each. if i don't remember wrongly, blue at $2+ and red at $6+. i can't remember exact price cos i'm not a big fan of sushi and sashimi. i will always order from the ala carte menu and skip the conveyor belt totally. if confirmed next week going to eat, then i'll bring #1 along since he likes the food there.
 
iphone> grrs. all de iphone tok. i oso wanna get an iphone. but i cant use it at wk. hais. for my nxt job, i definitely gonna get a job which allows me to use an iphone -_-

jul> i very desperate liaos. now i only manage to get abt 700ml from pumping each day. these 700ml is used for 5 meals for my boy. i latch another 2-3 times a day

ya. really hard to juggle pumping n latching n worse. pumping at wk. i try to settle it fast, cos dun wan de pumping to affect my wk. hais.

prettymums,

happykae
The problem is that my elder gal refused to drink. I threw away a few times becos of her. To make space, I gave away 30 over packs to my friend.

sandwich
If dinner, I might ask my husband to come along. If he goes, I can bring both kids. If not, I will just bring my baby boy. Sushi can eat with 1 hand. :p

how you go from Yishun to Parkway? Take cab? I like Parkway/ east coast but too far to go from North &amp; no direct bus... if take taxi every time sure broke.
 
<font color="dc143c">Melissa</font>
ya i took a cab at 4.30pm to avoid the 5-8pm surcharge of 35%..
it costed me $16.40...damn siong.. but i was too lazy to take a train to AMK to take 76 or to take train to Paya Lebar to change....

hence last min took cab....

only sundays got 853 direct bus..

<font face="tahoma"><font color="Ff3399">xiaowei / Re: Freezer</font>
I actually haven't gotten around to getting mine.
sad.gif

I've just been refraining from buying stuff that requires me to store in freezer lor. Like... icecream. *sobs*
Apparently I can't get a freezer until I go buy the microwave rack thingy from IKEA, get Hubs to drill holes in the wall and install it, THEN I will have space to put freezer.

Someone mentioned a couple of weeks back about buying freezer from Carrefour?? That one's cheaper (ard $250, I recall) than the Farfalla brand one from Lea Hin ($329 for upright chest freezer), but will have to ask her for reviews. </font>
 
good morning!

cookiez

hiaz sam really waste my money. he graduated to m mamy poko like months ago! now it's getting tight on him. prob when he finishes this current pack, gotta upgrade to L liao *faint*
 
angel

sam sort of wakes up at 6/630am, then sleeps again till 930/10am.. after his bath, he norm takes an hour/1.5h nap from ard 11/1130am, depending on how tired he is. for the rest of the afternoon, he goes by he'll get tired after 1.5-2h, then he'll need to nap for 30min twice. after that, bedtime routine starts at 830pm, then will fall asleep at abt 10pm.
 
michelle
erm.. to me 700ml/day on top of latching 2-3x is good liao. ur boy doesn't drink that much right? dun stress urself lah. stress=milk wun come out!

i used to be very stressed abt pumping. must pump 6x/day. if 4h r up n i can't pump, i get super kancheong. then i let go, if can pump 4x/day only, so be it. n the milk ss increased lor
 
<font color="ff0000">Rach</font>

Me looking for cheap sleepsuit for my Natalie, any lobang
happy.gif
. Cos BP here one very limited size and design haha
 
prettymum,
for me i mixed 80ml of EBM into her formula milk ( reduce a scoop of her milk powder) - she is aware of it. She will also have milk stick ice cream on alternate days.

Steph, Michelle, Jul,
#1 drink 80ml X 3times/day
#2 drink 80ml X 5 -6times/day
#3 drink 135ml X 5 times/day
My supply was even better initially - 3hrs-4hrs i can pumped 320ml-350ml but now i express oni every4-5hrs yeilding 300-320ml.

Once i receive Jenifur's milkbags then i gonna start my 3hrs routine again le.


Today got Xmas Celebration at my hse but #2 is dwn wif Fever... anyone got remedy to bring dwn fever fast.
 


Xiaowei,
Prettymums and I bought the Farfalla Upright Freezer (Model: FUF AF110A) from Carrfour. It cost $299 with two years warranty. I am not sure how much it cost if you purchase it from Lea Hin. But the freezer was delievered by them although I purchased it from Carrfour. Maybe you can try asking Lea Hin how much they are selling before going Carrfour. But I used my POSB Everyday Card which has 5% rebate from $299.
