Momoko, no problem. I already 'touch and feel' the P3, Capella, Graco, Aprica and Ingesina. Only didn't look the Maclaren because I tot it only for older toddlers. Will go to 'touch and feel' the Maclaren strollers. Once decide which model then can order and wait for delivery!! Kekeke! very excited now..crazy hor
Ayukie, no leh, my sister did it after 5 days delivered. not only you ar, all the weight gain almost 98% go to me

Xmasbb, keke. I oni went to touch and feel Combi, Capella, P3 and Switch and Quinny. Still got somemore brands too go, provided I got energy to go see again. I realised I cannot walk or stand for long liao, sigh ... I oso tot Maclaren is 3 mths up so missed diao. Me not so excited, I told hb he can do the choosing for stroller for me coz he's carrying most of the time mah. 8kg I still ok with it coz both my dogs that I carry so often oso tis weight. Hb likes the folding of P3 and the big wheels of Quinny n we haben explore Techno XT yet, let him go crack his head in my stead! =P

Momoko, your dogs around 8kgs ar... my hb prefer p3, Quinny buzz too exp liao. you are right too, he will be the one carrying most of the time.
My back and legs will 'suan' if I stand/walk around 30mins. I can't imagine when I 8 months ++and carry big tummy to shop baby stuffs. Now, I seldom go out too, aii...
One more thing is be aware that lighter strollers tend to tilt and fall back when weight distribution is unequal.
My causin bought the graco, and is much lighter but it faces only one way and does not absorb as much of the shock of the road lor..

Hi ladies,
can i check if taka baby fair carry tollyjoy products based on what you hav seen in previous yr? What other brands do they carry there? They give 20% off, & additional discount when using DBS-taka credit card, am i right?
cos now, there's BHG 20% off sale, wonder if i should get some baby product there or accumulate everything & buy it at 1 go during taka sale.
anise,
i saw Maclaren Techno XT on offer $388 at Tom & Stefanie. But it's 2007 version. think u better can it from hypermart for latest version if you can get it for the same price

morning ladies. back from mc. my nose nearly ran away on sunday but was ok yest. hb made me go see the doctor anyway. gp told me it's not a flu/cold. more likely sensitive nose and something triggered it to become so bad. my nose is still stucked, ear is still blocked and i still sound funny.
on the nb baby who is said to have h1n1 hor, last night channel 8 news say that they have not confirm if the baby really has h1n1 worr, still under monitor. only the mum is confirmed. so is the news reliable anot?
i have this persistent pain in the right wrist now every morning. it used to be numb now worsen to pain. wonder if i should call the clinic and ask...
jane, i think i can safely conclude that dr ho dunno wat to talk abt for my profession. lol. coz he never ever talk to me about my job.

It has been very very useful in the beginning for a 1st time mom like me and has helped me to breastfeed my baby till now. She is almost 8 months already....
Please pm if you are keen. Thank you.

swanston - the pain in your right wrist could be due to either water retention or the way you use the computer keyboard.
I got it also on my right wrist follow by the lower arm about 3 weeks ago, went for massage and it went off after 3 days. For my case, was because i did not use the mouse to surf on my home's laptop, so in the end i hurt the wrist. The lady was telling me my arm's vein was 'congested' and when she massaged, i could feel very suan tong but bearable......

ashm, i use a laptop at work and use a normal size mouse too. i used to wake up every morning with a numb right hand. but since sat it became a painful right wrist. even if i nap for awhile also will pain. then after awhile the pain will go off de as the day progress. when i massage my wrist i dun feel any pain also. only when i try to flex my wrist when i just got up.

Regarding car seat, my hubby's friend and hubby's ex boss offer to pass us their infant car seats. I think we will take up their kind offer. Then when baby's a bit older, we will buy another car seat using the vouchers given by our friends during the baby shower.
Now the next headache is the stroller...

Ayukie, normal biz hrs they charge normal rates lor, nite n weekends usually got extra charges. I tink some gynae charge double on weekends esp sundays, u gotta check with ur gynae. My fren kena the double charge when she gave birth on sunday. But for natural rite, you gotta depend on when ur bb wan to come out liao, unpredictable. Hehe.
Sporty, okie dokie I go try, u rem which polular u saw??
