Cheerios: my friend is in CA, about an hour away from SFO. Sorry, we email and facebook so i didnt take note of her exact location.
Breast Pump: Oh ya, I meant my working friends use the ones with harvest sack. Duals are better and faster. Not sure about medela but Avent's can contol the speed and power.
Car seats: I still feel that it's safer to put them behind. Also, remember to deactivate your airbag function at the position where your car seat is placed.
NovemBaby: if car is a SUV(lexus, toyota harrier, audi Q5,etc)maybe 3 car seats can fit. Priskuan: 2 behind, 1 in front?
Strollers: Maclaren Techno XT is for birth to 5 yrs depending on weight. Peg perago Pliko P3 is good for the first year but if baby's weight hits 10 kg, you'll be carrying 20kg all over!Quite heavy to handle. Otherwise, no complains at all about the stroller.
Novembaby: Gynae can tell you whether baby is big or small. My #1 is 90 percentile in terms of weight and height but she still can fir into the Maclaren Techno XT.
Oh ya, conbi and aprica are not too high. So tall mummies and daddies may have difficulty manneurvering it.
Backache: Gwen, pilates can so the trick, hold your x-ray first or if you have to ask for gynae's advise?
For #1, I experienced only a little ache directly under the bra line during T2 only. Now, the pain is on the right side. I'm planning to start swimming and pilates soon.
Pilates: Jollymum, thanks for organising, count me in for Pilates pls but my weekend schedule is a bit tricky. Is it ok to put my name first and if it doesn't fit, I pull out? Powermoves has pre natal pilates- mat work.
