hey cala: if we r still breastfeeding & taking in the multi vits + fish oil, its not necessary to feed baby extra fish oil? wait until stop bf then feed? or can double feed? will overdose or not?
 


Anny: no prob..

May: u tried using tat webby to ship le ma? Cos I know Amex cc charge exchange rate can be quite high at times...

Cala: think the pressie is by lucky draw right? Somebody doing it right?
 
shokel, ya.. i have used it twice. i don't find amex much higher. in fact for the last one, i use both maybank and amex and the rates' difference was less than 0.001.

i m a big amex supporter cos i use the krisflyer card to earn miles. hehe

the parcels arrived at the usa addy on monday night and i paid on tues morn. now the parecel is out with the courier!
 
Hi May,
I am interested in giving my baby DHA as well.
can i know where u buy, hw much?

This is becos: My MIL who takes care of her is a vegetarian,Faith eats a 'no-meat" diet for 6 days a week. She only gets to eat fish porridge on Sundays when we go to my mum's place.
So i really hope this DHA in liquid form will be helpful to her.

Thanks for sharing! =)
 
Akk, what theme is yours? I bot mine fr ebay coz its not common and cant b found in those us websites. But mine is small plastic figurines and the baker says its ok to use it as cake toppera
 
Calamari/may, does the supplement taste like medicine? I have to force my girl to take her medicine when she was sick. She hates it!
 
Hi Shokel, tks. Hv topped up already.

If b'day direct arrives early, can we pick up at Polliwogs bash? Looking fwd to seeing all the babies on Sat.

Just started my boy on sleep training ... think I'm failing badly...he cried until puke and we as parents cannot tahan already. Sigh...any mommies with experience?
 
Hi May,

thanks for the link too!
So you bought without the dropper, & how much do you give zach?
And do you also add the dha liquid into zach's food/formula, like they instructed?

Thanks!
 
Janiz,
Thx. We don't know what theme to go for yet.

Actually we wanted a simple pick-n-go cake and we went to Pine Garden to pick one.
Then we came to know that all toppers have to be supplied by ourselves.
Headache now, dunno where to find nice ones and how to match the cake.

I googled and found this online shop.
http://www.kidzgoodies.com/eshop.php?view=productListPage&category=35
It's not cheap and I guess it is due to genuine characters.

Thx for your info. I will search in ebay next.

Otherwise I will just settle for a normal cake.
Didn't realise that buying a cake can be such a chore these days.

Too bad that BakerzInn has stopped making bday cakes, otherwise we would have reserved the one that we have seen before.
 
Akk, if u are not looking for Disney characters toppers, maybe u can try the cake shop at Taka b2. Opp the bread shop, beside cold storage. I didn't really look closely the other time, but think they have some simple ones.
 
Akk, some bakers dun require toppers, they can provide hand-mould figurines. But will b more exp. U have the photo of the design? Can email them and ask for quotation.
 
jes: my DHA is from Childlife. Its a soft jelly filled with liquid.

ains: thanks!

Jaclee,

Sandy,
Computer hardware is not my trade but I have interest in such topic.

This is what I have gathered from some of the sources that I have read.
After gathering your needs, you may pick the brands/model which offer a value for money.

<u>Size - 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch (physical size of the device)</u>
- 2.5 inch is more compact and uses USB cable for power. Good candidate if you need to carry it around.
- 3.5 inch, bigger and uses a separate cable for power. Faster than 2.5 inch. Good if you want to leave it connected on a single machine most of the time.

<u>Memory - How much memory do I need (disk space e.g. 10GB 500GB 1TB)?</u>
- multiply your current data backup need by at least three when looking for data capacity.

<u>Speed - How fast do I need?</u>
if I do a backup of 100 files,
- I want it to be done with a snap of fingers,
then look for higher cache sizes. But it is more expensive.
- I can wait, I'll take the time to do laundry etc,
then forget about cache size

<u>Cable - USB or Firewire</u>
USB - more common, but might be slower depending on number of connection
Firewire - speed up the copy but some machine might not have this. I think this is Macintosh (Apple) standard. If you are using iMac and on iMac only, then probably this is a better choice.

<u>Source:</u>

http://www.computing.net/answers/windows-xp/25-vs-35-external-hard-drive/152998.html

I also dunno which is the most reliable brand. It might be good if it comes with a Warranty also (I'm not sure of the current market practice though).

eh.. not sure if all the above is correct but just my understanding after doing some readup.
everyone is free to comment if the information is not so right ya.

ooh i give this brand of Fish oil to my kids..
Finest Pure Fish Oil (200 ml) by Pharmax

Was "sold" to me by TMC PD. but i will buy from USA as it's much cheaper :p
 
hi calamari,
thanks for sharing.
Fish Oil: soft jelly filled? So its in a capsule? How do Noah take it?

Actually is Fish oil the same as DHA? Im getting confused... =P

And for the multivits, it is by spoonfeed?
 
May: I shall try using tt then.. Tks! I hardly use my Amex card..

MAnunited: I gave Ashton all types of eggs before liao, market ones, supermart ones ... Not much diff lei... The egg yolks I mean... Lol

Joan: tks, I hven checked my ib yet... Lazy... The loots won't arrived so fast lei... Next week prob ...
 
akk...ooh the bee cake...u posted it before rite! u mean pine garden said the bees are too chim to make? i read fr this forum that pine garden always tell their customers to choose the designs that are already available...y dun u ask those home-bakers instead.
 
Jenny,
here's the pine garden's link:
http://www.pgcake.com/
I also came to know this shop from this thread.
Try their bread if you are there. I was hooked to it, esp the 6 pcs cheesy bread.

They have 2 shops under the same block.

The one that takes the order is the busiest (the one next to a Prata shop).

If you want to browse around only, you can go to the other shop. The cake catalogs are also available there. This less busier shop is managed by older folks and they cannnot handle complicated cake request. You can still place order there if you need a simple cake.


Janiz,
ya lor, that's the one. me "sway" mouth, wrote it in a way that the bees will not be busy by then and it really turned out in a way. ok, I will try to ask other home-bakers. Thank you once again.
 
Mtdt: u book velatine liao ah? Haha. ;)

Jes: I just put it in his mouth. When bb attempts to bite, the jelly will break into liquid.
 
Btw anyone needs the bellamy pasta? I open mine on 17 oct and let my girl tried once. She dun like cos she is lazy to bite! So i still got almost the whole box remaining and i put the pack inside the lock lock box ever since i have opened it. Anyone wants it so that i can pass to u during the bday bash? If not i will throw it away liao..wasted sia
 
I already book one leh.. Thinking of booking velantine when my second one comes. But the rate only for nov.. Dilemma... If I book so many, my hubby sure nag one... Argghh..
 
hihi..
was wondering what is PS.. then realised its photohoot! hehe...

Just now, my MIL informed me that Faith has got diarrhea.
I think its due to teething so i din ask her to see doctor. Asked MIL to monitor first cos so far Faith lau sai 3 times.
And Faith remained in good mood.

Faith still boh gei.
Mummies with experience, can share?
Did your child also diarrhae when teething?
Can i ask until what extent must the diarrhae be to become a concern?

Thanks!
 
Calamari, LOL. Now that u say..but nope, i din think of that! I tot it was that brand of baby shoes.
So did Noah lau sai when he was teething?
 

May &amp; Cherlene, I told them not once, not twice but many times not to speak vulgar infront of bb. Still not use, they cant be bothered. Can even say it to bb. Sigh!

Janiz, can i get the pasta from u? Tot of buying to let shay try.
