ahko80, shan> feminine wash can use during pregnancy. think u can also find it is recommended especially when u have sensitive/itchy skin down there, as shower foam might be too strong compared to the feminine wash

Hi, Sorry to disturb.
I'm a July 2010 mother. I have a complete set of the Pump In Style Advanced for sales. Bought on 26 July 2010. still with warranty & box. Receipt still available too. Full set selling @ $690.
I only open up to sterlize & use it once only.
Due to stress there is no more milk flow thus decided to sell away.
Interested buyer kindly sms to 91459082

re: diapers.
actually i got VERY cheap diapers to use in the first month, cuz we were changing it every 2 hrs or so (sometimes less than that) cuz bf babies really poo a lot! no nappy rash thanks to desitin [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
ahko,
i love maclaren strollers! sturdy and light enough for use even on overseas trips [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
shan,
there is FOS in sunway pyramid! see if they have sale for baby clothes [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] if ur shopping around in pyramid, u might want to have lunch/dinner at the restaurant canton-i..their fried carrot cake and fried beef hor fun are very good! hubby loves their "lau sar pau" - egg yolk custard bun too!
re: cream for baby,
i use QV cream for #1, who had eczema when he was < 1 yr old..his dermatologist recommended and we've bn using it ever since! can stock up when guardian/watsons have sales...its not as nice smelling as mustela but really works well!

nappy cream:
I used to get Johnson baby nappy cream for my elder 2 and drapolene. Works well. Recent robinson expo sale, happened to c desitin blue n bought one to try out. Tink abt 8 or 9 bucks smaller tube.
Diapers:
used to get goon for my 2nd boy in 07 n it was cheaper then via online. I jus bought 2 pcks of drypers size S and pampers active M. Think taka bb fair is sellin huggies brand. May chkout size S n M size pricing to c whether same price as supermarket or they jus give free gift.
Sling
I have a mums in mind sling since elder boy as he refused to sit pram aft 5mths old. Gd esp if alone with bb shoppin. Can use as blanket to cover bb or when breastfeedin. Can try c online to chk anyone sellin brand new pc. Btw takes a while to use the sling and get used to it. My fren loan her mine to try out 1st b4 I got it.
Feminine wash
I started using it aft gave birth to elder boy. Really made a difference compared to normal shower foam due to ph level.

Irene, guess u have to be good girl from now!! haha my hubby also limited my sugar intake..
Desitin cream,
I always help my friend to get the 4oz Blue one, the bigger tub is cheaper but my friends prefer the tube one
Post-natal massage,
here is some research I did from the forum and I shortlisted the following, just for everyone's reference
Mdm Ida 9424-9829, my 1st choice! but she's fully booked till end of Dec.. so she referred me to her cousin who was trained by Mdm Ida. I sms her then she called back cos I don't know when she'll be busy doing massage, as she don't answer call when she's doing massage.

(the owner is the very famous lady Mdm Rokiah and her friend, but she not doing massage anymore from what I read from the forum)

i wld recommend mustela shower gel (no foam) for nb cos its realli much better n not drying for tender nb skin.but its reali expensive abt $28 i tink but i already bought it during kiddy palace 20% sale tat day. n the mustela bb face cream v good for nb bb face n super nice smell... also expensive... $18 per small tube. i used to used mustela nappy cream until i tried desitin which i feel its better n slightly cheaper.
Avent nipple cream- v good, shld invest one if u intend to bf long. small tube cost $22 but not oily n moisturizing. best is no need to clean off wen bf whereas some other brand hv to
watch out for these few itmes at taka sale

Mrs Lee: I only bought 3 packets, am going back to get my nb and size s- I forgot to buy that day! 
Koori: Isetan sale ends 12 aug. And diaper offer is not while stock last, girl told me everyday of the sale will have.
Hho: You sure you want to stock up only one? I stock up 6 and if I'm sharing with my friends(3 of us), we'll order 1 dozen! Not that you have to do likewise, but when you need and you don't have can be quite agonising. It's multiple uses, really useful. Each time I change nappy, I'll apply a thn layer. When bb is 6 months, I use only twice a day. 3-4 tubes for the first year should be ok.

I'm back... have disappeared for a few days, sorry to anyone looking for me, especially Bam.
Re: Desitin
I can do a spree/bulk order since I also have to buy it for my bb and I am a bit familiar with online shopping. We can do it via the SG motherhood thread also (I just have to convince my fren to allow me to spree coz the SG motherhood spree thread is that u must be a member of more than 1 yr old).
Well, how sprees/bulk order work are that
A) We all confirm which website to use
1) You pick the items u want and no. of items and transfer $$ to me based on an approx exchange rate (coz paying by credit card)
2) 1 person (me) will consolidate the order and place it with the overseas website
3) Once items received, I either meet you to pass the items (on one of our outings, since I think we most prob going to have others after the dinner this Fri) or mail to your address.
Have ordered clothes for Orangebb from Asos (Uk website) via a spree and will pass the items to her this Fri.
The idea is that since I am going to order stuff from the website anyway, I don't mind anyone 'lompang' plus we all get to save on int'l shipping together.

Re: prices online for strollers
If you intend to buy from Singapore (not from overseas), you can see the prices on this website

Baby Kingdom is one of the stores which a lot of mommies (in this thread and the whole forum) have gone to check out (I dun work for them, tell u 1st).
I went to see baby stuff from them last weekend also... the location is in Kaki Bukit.

WHim: I agree with you that for strollers, babykingdom does have a lot of choices to choose from. However I will not recommend their beds and other stuff. Found them a little pricer. I'm still receeing around for baby stuff. =) So far only got my stroller from the US.
My EDD is 30th Nov so still got time i think.

same here!! i also have not buy much...also none items passing down to me from frens/relatives...
so far only bought some bb clothes, carseat, bottles, sterilizer..
cot/playpen still checking out...
ya think stroller can get later since when bb still so young at earlier mths, may not bring her out much...

ya i did the same for #1 oso. last nite feed, i gv FM, so tat can last him longer.. hee..
Then i been giving Similac, but i feel it's kinda heaty esp 1yo FM, then change him to Mamil Gold, he diarrhoea. headaches and coughs oso, coz of pleghm i think. then GP recommend Nestle Nutrent Pro, no lactose / gulten, even since on tat.. he been better.. but the prob is v tough to get this. haa
for #2, i will try Nestle ..see fine or nt [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

re stroller vs sling for bb's first few months:
i agree tt stroller is a bit bulky actually..i used the sling much more for #1 in first few months and we totally didn't use the stroller until he was 10/11 months! but then i realised not exposing him to the stroller is not such a good idea, cuz he would cry a LOT whenever we put him into stroller..(was always used to being carried mar)..i'm a MAJOR sling user, i ended up with ergo, lucky baby sling (both bought), mums in mind sling and another infantino sling (hand me downs)..my fave was the ergo, followed by the lucky baby sling [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] hubby loved the ergo too!
think for this time around i'll try to use the stroller a bit more so bb not so used to being carried all the time! love the feeling of the sling and baby being so close tho!
re: spree
actually if u gals want to do a private spree i can arrange also, have bought stuff from overseas before so its pretty easy for me..i've organised before..but my collection point is only by mail tho.. may be hard to join outings for me..
re: formula milk
i used friso, cuz that was what hospital gave to my #1 initially..i suppose they're all pretty much the same? i'm planning to do Total breast feeding, which i know will be super tiring, but since we have eczema/rhinitis in the family, its better for bb not to have any formula at all if possible in first 6 months. my #1 only had 2 feeds of formula for his first 6 months! save money too..hehehe...

i'd recommend cetaphil! no need to stock up on things like this so early IMHO, since we still have a few months before we pop..i just use one pump in the bathwater..its great for cradle cap too [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] again, this was recommended by my son's dermatologist
i agree tt stroller is a bit bulky actually..i used the sling much more for #1 in first few months and we totally didn't use the stroller until he was 10/11 months! but then i realised not exposing him to the stroller is not such a good idea, cuz he would cry a LOT whenever we put him into stroller..(was always used to being carried mar)..i'm a MAJOR sling user, i ended up with ergo, lucky baby sling (both bought), mums in mind sling and another infantino sling (hand me downs)..my fave was the ergo, followed by the lucky baby sling [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] hubby loved the ergo too!
think for this time around i'll try to use the stroller a bit more so bb not so used to being carried all the time! love the feeling of the sling and baby being so close tho!
re: spree
actually if u gals want to do a private spree i can arrange also, have bought stuff from overseas before so its pretty easy for me..i've organised before..but my collection point is only by mail tho.. may be hard to join outings for me..

irene,
make ur own ice-cream? i was making yogurt and orange juice popsicles for my son previously..just blend everything, sweeten w some honey if u like and pour into those popsicle molds u can buy from household shops..u can play around w flavours! use low fat yogurt so its better for u? not as nice as ben and jerry's obviously, but it's healthy and low calorie!
