Me feel the Sng at groin. Kinda think it's cosI can't close legs when u sit down n eat! Wear pants now.

Poor appetite but still eat 3 meals. Drink more mamil mama to supplement bah.

Sleep is disturbed with dreams and toilet visits.

Bladder, rib cage n belly button must be quite bruised from bb movement.

All gg to bb fair?

Chabby:

Feeling ok now? Yeah.. its quite scary. Mummies, we gotta walk really slowly if it rains ya. Careful.... another 1-2 months more to go. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



re: gathering

Yes... we can arrange for Westie gathering soon too. There are quite a few of us residing in the west like BBK, BP, CCK.

 

[cookiefleur]

oooohhhh... Chabby!!! Must be careful! Agree with the other mummies, these few days raining, must be more careful! Keep monitoring, should be just the muscle strain... xiao xin xiao xin!



Yups, me going parenthood fair tomorrow afternoon, heard from friend who went down sitex today, that it was already very crowded, so all mummies who are going to expo tomorrow, please be careful!



kimmy> now less than a month to go for you, excited a not??? =D

 

[yotsubato]

Cookie,

I'm also gg down tomorrow afternn to the fair. Specially took half day leave to go down, since we need to go sitex fair to get gps first. My office is near expo, and when I was going home today, there were like soooooo many people flocking to the fair, and carpark was already full! Really hope it's not that bad in the afternoon....

[paranoidmummy]

Thanks fiona for the link. The maxi cosy carseat at Booth R01 like very worth...

 

[pinky_j]

koms>> baby is getting bigger.. hence lesser space to kick.. so can only feel baby squirming ard.. now can really see tummy in weird shapes due to baby's movement.. heh..

 

[evlin]

Fiona/ shycloud ~ thanks for your information!



poor mummy ~ i found that the offer price for maxi cosi most like will be the same for every baby fair. since it is suitable from 9mths onwards, so i suggest no need to buy at this time if you are not urgent.

i bought for my 1st son (when he is abt 12 mths) in this yr at taka baby fair and it is 2009 model.

maybe if you buy in next yr, you can get 2010 model...

Bethel,



The Robinsons nursery sale is only at raffles city? The ad seems to suggest that. How come I didn't get any flyers in the mail from them...
