(2010/09) September 2010 MTB

badfifi, BBL - me using Mustela Body Wash and moisturising cream for baby Germaine (she sleeping in air con room with us so better to hydrate her skin)... then diaper rash cream Desitin and California baby Calendula cream (suitable for adults and infants with eczema cos my hubby has eczema so i damn scared Germaine *touch wood* will have...)

 


BBL: TMC ley.. actually if go TMC website see.. its ard the price too.



Btw i agree with BabyT u are super slim..... woo

 
Badfifi & BabyT,



Well i treat that as compliment ..LOL..gonna tell my hubby tonight...so happy after listening...

But infact i am abt 62KG..5 kg gain..and BB only 700grams..



BabyT,

no la dont wanna compare now..haha cos u say i am slim so confirm i lose one../hahahhahahaah



and yesterday i went to attend wedding dinner..the bride ask me how many mths pregnant i am..y tummy so big i say 6 mths lo..and the best part is..i am 7 mth but look smaller..

I was like are we comparing tummy size??

Even though the bride is 7mth pregnant she look fat instead of pregnant...and she gain alot of weight ever since she is pregnant

 
Adelynn,

think MT A rate are better than TMC..so i am still thinking where to go..and parking at TMC is horrible..

dont wan hubby n relatives come visit me then no parking for them leh..

 
sarahmay, thanks for your suggestion on borrowing a BP to try first but problem is almost those i knew who had BP still need them when i deliver ... and being the gan cheong spider type, i would prefer to get ready the stuff that i need, in case i scramble last min...keke....but BP not cheap so haiz...u super mum sia, still gotta walk up 7am prepare breakie for boy boy...



SK, u can check xiao pang's post on her KL getaway trip...sounds good!



Pomme, Gideon sounds nice!



Mag, wow, u travel up to JB frequently? Maybe next time i will also do that....things cheaper there considering the exchange diff....ya, booze is dirt cheap in europe and im so missing that place! oh, and i love ur kids' names! everyone here is like so expert in naming their kids!



Lim, no worries.....u must rest well ah.....when the upgrading finishing? v dusty de..



On deposit to pay to hospital, i can neber understand how it works....lemmi check with the nurses when nearer my due date...

 
babyT> yah, i intend to get Desitin and Cali Baby also. but will probably get baby wash from supermarket, maybe pureen or something not too ex. our philosophy is to not "pamper" our baby with products that are too exp or too "good", get him "used" to it. after all, boy mah...scully he next time got day cream lah, night cream lah, toner lah, eye cream lah etc...i will PENGSAN!!!

badfifi - icic... i scared Germaine *touch wood* don't have good skin... cos i see hubby's eczema very bad especially during the hot weather now... aiyo... heart pain... so i dun mind investing in something good and slightly expensive...

[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

 
diamantz,



I am 170cm..but bb is 700gram..then all those auntie dont believe i am 6 mth preggie..say i look like 4 mths nia..damn sad..keep saying my bb is small..when he come out wont hit 3kg..

But my doc say bb will hit 3kg leh..

 
Badfifi,,

That's bad..not gd to be depressed during pregnancy..slowly earn the money..dont get depress..

The daily injection part..sound scary..

 
bbl> i have learnt to always just laugh. for me, when my husband teases me, i barely react anymore, cos the more i grr or watever, the more he will tease me...

 
actually, i'm feeling my hormones affecting my moods liap. i really hope i can still control after i give birth.



bbl> oh yah, abt J&J, 1 friend told me her son got red spots here n there, then another friend just noticed that her baby's skin was drying out...

 
Badfifi,



Hi^5..my hubby is the same too..he told me he loves seeing me angry..he say when he sees me angry he is happy..sadist man..

And he say he will teach my bb to make me angry..then they tag team..daddy n son bully mummy..Faintz

 
badfifi, oh dear, daily injections...scary....but jia you jia you...ya lo, we opting c sec more ex than natural.....xianz...everything abt $....



BBL, u are tall! im 157 nia...cos i not the super skinny type, so at my height, i look fleshy...but now preggy, maybe pple will see mi as pregnant woman rather than meaty woman...haa..

 
badfifi - thanks for ur consolation... haha...



BBL - people still looking at me with the "is she fat or preggy" face... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] sadz...

 
BBL: haiiiiiyooo. you aare very very the slim. my first thot at seeign ur pics was 'wah! so slim! like 3 mths preggy!' anw ur weight does not equal bb's weight ok? and dun wish for a big baby if want natural birth. seriously.



BabyT: my son had super bad ezcema. even spent hundreds on doc's bills at KKH to treat it (saw prof so u can imagine the price). so honestly, i can tell u things like mustela, sebamed and even california bb...even tho they are popular, i've tried them and they aren't all that fab. the cheaper and more effective alternatives (more ex than J&J but still cheaper than these more 'branded' ones) are cetaphil, lactcylcid (cannot rber spelling) are good for cleansing. even oilatum and QV aalso not too bad, and more gentle. mummy can also use. And for moisturisers - a really good one is PHYSIOGEL. the best place to get this is at hospital pharmacy where they have the big tube. works cheaper than using Mustela, Sebamed etc. For skincare products, best to always look for NO fragrance, no preservatives and no parabens if possible.Oh! even tho it may be organic, it doesn't not automatically mean it's gentle on skin. cos sometimes sensitive skins cannot tolerate the essential oils used.



badfifi: u know...don't worry abt the hormonal fluctuations just after birth right now ok? as long as u are prepared for being a bit of a mood nutpot..and ur hubby is, u will be fine. i haad a bit of the blues too. really terrible. thank goodness i brought aalong my ipod to hospital cos i really cldn't sleep and felt q depressed after birth. so the music helped.



J&J; oh! my friends who gave birth in Oz both told me that the midwives there all advised ag using these products. a lot of sodium lareth sulfate in them too...something i find irritates sensitive skins.



BEING SHORT AND ROUND

eh...u all ladies no need to fight. think i'm the shortest here....1.52m nia. and also roundest. ppl think i'm going to pop liao. :p

 
Sugarong,

Gd that people see u as pregnant..people dont even see me as preggie during initial stage..the bum look like a tummy lo..so ugly..



BabyT,

I understand how u feel, the feeling of fat or preggie...but tell yrself that..when u r pregnant..u definetely got to gain weight ma..

 
Sarah,,



You sound so experience..really makes a big different to us (first time mummy)..we seem like noob lo..Will take note of those skin product n monitor bb skin condition..

 
Badfifi,

OIC, 12-15K is alot.

Don't worry so much lah, just be prepare to be a happy mother hugging our angel.



Haha, talking about weight, to be frank, i only weighs once a month, that is when i go to visit gynae. My current weight still consist of my previous weight gain unable to shed off from last pregnancy, now just add on and on. Phew!



My son also have ezcema, we went to see doctor but not specialist, we just try our best to keep his hygenic especially now weather super hot, he will get rashes easily if we din watch out, he will start to itch and scratch. We always had a few medicines standby.



$$$,

To-date, i think i had spent about $1.5k liao for gynae visit and all these tests. :S

 
Jynnsan,



Is it very common for children to have skin problems..seems like few mummies got this prob with their children...



Yvonne..oppss



First we are saying slim now it became comparing who has more mass..

 
sarahmay - i understand what u mean... my hubby tried cetaphil, but sadly doesn't work on him... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] i just pray hard Germaine dun have... *cross fingers, cross eyes*...

 
yvonne: ur weight gain i can tell is mainly on your tummy!! u wont wanna see me in shorts.. i like your slim legs.... hoho but i like yr TUmMY more! nice nice nice!

 
BBL: haha! Ya lor! Was screaming at hubby tt wad if icant slim dwn la blah blah blah.. I was 58kg before pregnant.. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
