Roxy, oic, $1300 a bit steep but if it works well like dslr, still worth it.

Calamari, I've heard of clubsnap too but I'm so blur about dslr that I won't know what is a big buy even if it's staring in my face. Don't know what kind of lens I'll need etc. So cheem.

Anyone tried healthy times cereals? Somehow, Raelynn likes organix and happy bellies but she rejected healthy times brown rice cereals, not once but twice. Arghh!!! Hope she learns to like it or else, waste $ liao.

 

[eyevee]

Roger, there is a new canon camera that does video right? my fren say that one is good, but now i forget what model haha.

 

[calamari]

Pauline: compare the prices first. E.g I sold my 1.5 year old Canon 1000D for $550 with kit lens.

 

[angkuku]

Roger,
Thx for the DSLR info. For now, I will stick to my compact camera, will save the $ for milk powder. hehe..

If I get the DSLR, then I still need to put aside money to buy the film, develop the photos, buy album etc... (just kidding, trying to find excuses not to buy).

When I was younger, I did insipire to be a pro photographer and own a big DSLR. But no money to buy then, n it's too late to catch up now, given that we hv other priorities in life.

But it's always great to see those high quality pictures shared here.

 

[manunited]

Roxy, now polo got additional 25% plus 15% off?

BTW, what can i use to clean my bb's teeth? 1st teeth toothbrush to brush his teet and gum?

 

[sagittaurius]

Morning all, thanks Alice Chio and Skinneybeanie for giving me the advise. But my Mil still insist me to put salt or sugar so that my bb eat. Yesterday did try put a bit sugar to her barley cereal also did not eat much also make a fuss. Dinner time give her fish congree with potato also same.But very funny lor i realise when i put her in walker to feed soild she more fuss. But when i put her on my lap she gai gai eat at least not really fuss.

 

[roxyz]

calamari... aiyah i din noe u were selling ur camera

manunited.. its 25% plus 10% off... do u know of the 15% promo code? can share? im using first teeth n wedela


pauline, there was a thread abt negative pubilicy on HT very bad.. found maggots in their box and HT still insist nt their fault n super bad customer service...

 

[annieang77]

Hi Ivy, my hubby is also photographer, if you need for corporate shoot. Let me know. Annie, no obligation. ;-)

 

[manunited]

roxy, i dont know the 15% off code...i saw from the "overseas spree" tread then i know got 15% off leh....

jenny poon, do you know the 15% discount code?

 

[blessedcyn]

any play dates this week?

 

[lynnlim00]

Roger, my Boi also born on 6 Dec. So mi, Ivy n yours all 6 Dec. Also TMC huh?

My Jovin should be ard 8kg like tat only.

 

[flipfreak]

ivy: seems like first week of dec is a popular date to have babies.

pauline: what u want depends on the lens u are going to use mainly. the nex5 may have some problem doing it right now because they only have 3 lenses for the camera at the moment. u might want to wait awhile first?

 

[flipfreak]

roxy: as mentioned earlier, it depends more on the type of lens u are using. doesn't have to be manual focus.

pauline: the newer dslr in the mkts can all shoot videos. all the new canon slr can shoot videos up to 1080 high definition. some models were used to shoot movies and tv shows.

ang kuku: its a big investment. just get a simple camera that u will bring around. more important is to be able to capture the moment anytime.

 

[flipfreak]

lynn: my wife gave birth at mt alvernia.

it was nearer to home than tmc.

 

[dancelover183]

Candice: My surname is Cho not Chio...hahaha. I smiled when I see that. =p

btw mummies, yest I tried milk mask! I pour fresh ebm on my cotton puff n wipe it on my face. I can feel my pores tigtening! I apply on my hubby's face too & tonight gonna do it again. hahha. My mum also took my expired fbm for milk bath! dun waste mah....and she even drink the ebm! lol.

 

[dancelover183]

roger: juz curious y doesnt ur wife come to the forum instead n chat?

 

[calamari]

Alicia: your mom and my mom same! hahahah!

angkuku: same to alicia's question to roger, how come your wife also doesnt come to the forum instead?

 

[flipfreak]

alicia & calamari: she doesn't like to use forums. i am always the liaison person everytime. hahaha. from cars to pets to home to wedding and now to baby.

she says i am the sociable half of the family. lol

 

[annieang77]

wow, Roger, u are just like my hubby who handle alot of things and my hubby is doing much more than me when taking care of bb.

 

[calamari]

roger: oic...I am always the liaison person in the family but when it comes to the kids, hubby is doing more than me, shame on me!

 

[flipfreak]

annie: haha. we split up the work so each one does things they are better in or likes to do or don't mind doing.

calamari: i don't think i do alot more when it comes to the baby though.

 

[angkuku]

Calamari,
Roger has answered for me liao. hehe.. I'm the scout for information gathering. But she does most of the things at home. Kind of making me feel bad now. =p

ang kuku: im more fortunate cos we moved in with the parents after we sold the house so got a full time caregiver. i got a lot lesser to do than before which leaves me more time for the bb.

[yuki22]

Mummies, haven’t been logging in quite sometime coz extremely busy with work ……so upset at work that I typing my resignation letter but duno to give or not.

I am so upset today. I was checking my gal health booklet then I realised that the doc gave my gal 5 in 1 instead of 6 in 1 !!
I brought the 6 in 1 package for my gal and brought her for the last jab on last month but now I realised that the doc gave 5 in 1 instead of 6 in 1. I called back to check the clinic record and it was really 5 in 1 and they told me to bring my gal back for Hep B jab 1 month after the last jab. Was so angry coz I rem telling the doc 6 in 1 final dose and he confirm and told me last jab. If I din check then my gal will have missed out her Hep B jab.

I dun feel like going back to the same doc anymore. Can anymore recommend me good PD in Tampines or Woodlands? Or any loc …I juz want to bring my gal for a detail checkup and Hep B now …

 

[eyevee]

GENESIS!! high five. My hubby and i really feel that ever since she turn 7mths old, she is really naughty lor, roll and crawl and refuse to be hold still by me. Arch back, throw teether, scream! And she woke up 430am today lor, refuse to sleep till 530am when hubby give her milk. I backache and bleeding so profusely haha (mense 1st day), so angry leh. SHe really drives me and hubby crazy, we are so tired.

How do FTWM handle work stress, sick child... Genesis... tats why im so exhausted... and lost weight again, feel even my toes so boney. prepreg 54kg, post preg 48, now 46. We just have to tahan, no choice ya. We can do it one. See now enyu is fine and torturing her daddy &amp; mummy !

cayenne (cayenne) - yes watson, $1.95! swim diapers.

ANYONE BABIES WILL GRAB UR HAIR TO PUT INTO THEIR MOUTH????

 

[yuki22]

Wei Ting, I heard Pat’s Schoolhouse is good but quite exp. U can go for a trial since u have the coupon.

Calamari, where is Pat’s Schoolhouse? Ur gal already registered?

GG, I am thinking of bringing my gal for a haircut and my hubby tot of shaving her hair….coz she got very little hair now ….
Where is Red Dot located?

 

[cayenne]

ivy, i went watson at United Sq.. dun have lehz..

yuki, tt time my pd oso.. i wanted 6-in-1, end up give 5-in-1 (but i didnt buy package).. and worse, when i go for last hep b jab, the nurse didnt record the jab on the booklet... so i get them to note down when i brought my boy for pneumococcal jab at 7th mth.. haiz.. in the end, i went clinic so many times for the various jabs.. *faintz* btw, dun be too upset at work lahz.. u stress call me, maybe we can go level 2 or 5 for a break..

[manunited]

[angkuku]

Yuki,
We are using this PD in Tampines. We didn't had a good experience from the other PD few months back before switching to this one.
Quite reluctant to mention it here cos it's already long queue. hehe..

quite a busy clinic, imagine 1 PD with 4 nurse around.



As for haircut, we did our akk haircut on his 4th mth. We had the Stylist

to come to our place. It is from Hua Xia, and they are using shaver.
http://www.**************/productshow.asp?id=9

if u have our akk FB, u can catch a glimpse of how much hair he has now (not much actually).

 

[yuki22]

cayenne, thanks

if i can sneak out for a break i let u know

for your last 5 in 1 and hep B jab....how far apart?do we have to wait a mth in bet jabs coz that wat my GP told me...my gal already 7mths...afraid by the time she jab Hep B , almst 8mth, will it be very late? which PD are u seeing?

 

[yuki22]

Ang Kuku, is the PD Cecilia ...i heard her queue is very long and only accept cash?
Normally how long do you wait? Have to book appt before going down?

How much did u pay for asking the Stylist down?

 

[kitsune_sg]

Akk, your pd same as me n Ainsley.

Ivy, mine will take my finger to gnaw if I let her. Her gums r itchy cos her lower incisors r erupting.

just now I was trying to cut her nails, she turned into a gymnast. Keep wanting to grab my nailcutter.

 

[eyevee]

Pauline, lolz, ya u go see my face book, my girl is now yoga master, gymnast, sometimes dancer! She also gnaw my thumb, but eat my hair, bit sick leh...

cayenne i saw it sometime ago at tpy. If i happen to see again, i let u know.
