Joodz, u so sweet to ur hubby. haha i nv write any love letter to my hubby before.
For the cny goodies, u can eat pineapply tart but not a lot. i ever ask my gyne whether can eat pineapple he say yes but not a lot becoz pineapply have a lot of acid will cause gastic pain. Hmm i think u eat 2 or 3 tart shld be ok.
I also tot of buyin a mini fridge to store the breastmilk. It more hygiene n also can store longer if the fridge dont contain other food..

@wish child: Hahaha! I never really discuss with my hubby about house visiting. But usually the 1st day all his relatives will come to our house and at night his friends will come over for steamboat. So I always "rehearse" me in contractions and going to give birth while eating steamboat. Wahahaha~ I think I'm going to start eating yu sheng the moment they have it. I don't really mind about the raw fish but I like the rest of the veg especially pomelo. Hehehe...
@joodz: Me me! I'm going to breastfeed and am staying with my PIL. Haha! Never thought of buying a mini fridge leh. Maybe my mil by then will empty a level for me to store bah. Though a level is too big for me lah. I might not have so much milk. =p

wish child and pinkyval: my PIL house mainly guys.. i think they will be uncomfortable seeing bottles of breastmilk stored in their fridge. plus their fridge is always bursting with goodies one. i intend to go on full bf if i can help it so thought of buying mini fridge. thought of it after reading idaarshad's 70 milk bottles. haha. but i doubt i will need that much.
my other worry is how to express the milk when working. i only have experience with one colleague who gave birth last year. she pump milk at one corner every 2-3 hours and her husband will drive to wherever she is to pick up her b/milk and go home feed baby. but i dont think this will work in my case as my hubby will complain. haha.

Hmm if at office u can express out the milk n store in a breastmilk bag n keep in ur office fridge. Before u goin home remember to take it. haha i'm jus afraid ppls will thought is packet soya milk n drink it.. =p

I also pray hard my bb will out after CNY hopefully at my EDD. Cool and thanks. That’s very sweet of you to pass such nice note to your hubby
@wishchild – haha I can’t stop laughing at ur post…Bao Yu is ur fav huh haha. I thot more on bak kwa, pineapple tart and cookies etc.
@pinkval – I like yu sheng too but cannot eat the raw fish. Dun think will go house visiting too but no ang pao for bb liao…greedy mummy wahaha
@joodz – I love raw salmon too but totally avoid now. If I have craving, I will eat the cooked type.
Thanks mummies for giving me suggestion on cheering up my hubby. Will do it tonight [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

@joodz: Maybe you can store the breast milk in those storage bag and put in a plastic container and write a note outside "男人勿碰". Hehehe...
@wish child: Hahhaa.. I only like those Japanese Salmon sashimi. I find the yu sheng one taste differently leh. Maybe cos they sliced it too thin le.
Ewww.. Lucky it's not a man that nearly open up to drink! I think more disgusting lor. Hahaha!
@pyng: I also want ang pao for my baby. Hahaha! But I think relatives will still give lah. Can take it as wish the mummy smooth delivery. Hee hee hee...

Very busy today to catch up on the posts.
Saw some posts on the following:
Maternity Photoshoot: Here's what I did during my last pregnancy. There was this make up promo whereby you only pay $30 (full redeemable for products) and you get to enjoy a full make up, simple hairstyling and a A4 photo printout. You can even use their costumes to add on the photo effect. Well.. Money well spent.
Not exactly as many pictures or shots as you would from a studio.. But good for a simple momento. Will keep out for such lobang again next time.
Wrote about it in my blog last time. No time to update after that.
http://eviangal-littlestepsjournal.blogspot.com/search/label/Third%20Trimester
CNY: My EDD is brought forward from 7 Feb to 3 Feb.. (right on the 1st day of CNY).. Hopefully baby comes only during the rabbit year.. no mood to think of CNY as a result of that.
Mummies who are like after CNY that's good for you. =)
Chocz: I do sprees too.. Looking at babymallonline later this year.
Mrs Ong: Sure, let me know then.

gregda,
IF your baby decides to come out n celebrate cny, mayb u could arrange w ur CL to come 1st then let her go back for a few days for CNY?
My friend who gave birth b4 CNY 09 did this arrangement w the CL.
joodz,
what i did then was I used the Medela cooler bag to store the ebm after each pump. But besides the ice block that came w the bag, I will also bring along another 2 more icepacks (bot from Daiso). When I reach office, I will keep the ice block and ice packs in the office freezer.
After each pump, I will store the ebm into the cooler bag w the ice block and 1 ice pack. After the 2nd pump then I'll add in the 2nd ice pack. That was good enough the keep the ebm cool till i reach home. But the ebm will hv to be consumed the next day. Cannot freeze them again.

Morning mummies! I've been busy the past few weeks and hence haven't caught up with everyone's well-being. How's everyone?
I have also done my detailed scan. Confirmed girl! Hehe... all's well with my girl, just that I have low-lying placenta. Gynae said it may move up in the 3rd trimester. Since I didn't have any bleeding, I don't have to be confined to bed rest, just have to be careful, and no exercise, no squatting and no intercourse.
By the way, has anyone signed up pre-natal class? Is it necessary? I should be delivering at Mt Alvernia so if I go for pre-natal class, it'll be at Mt A. Anyone has reviews of it?
Cham, I haven't found a CL yet haha!

wish child, choc - Thks for ur encouragement.. yes, a job is just a job.. not worth it to get mad over some unreasonable people. Anyway, TGIF!!
faithnhope - I just signed up for the pre-natal class at Mt A cos I'm delivering there too. I took the wk-end class and the earliest available one starts in Nov. So if u are interested, maybe call soon to book? We are first-time parents so we thought may be good to see what tips we can pick up.. As for CL, I'm near giving up liao... those that come wif gd recommendations are either booked or not keen to do over CNY (my EDD on 5 Feb). Back-up plan is for mum and MIL to help..

@joodz - yeh, i think she only does it in TMC. I think her class is around $200+, I think I'm paying around $180+ as I have the TMC FBI discount. You can just call the Thomson ParentCraft at 6251 4090 to check out the class timings with them. They have weekends class as well, hubby is complimentary, he cannot make it at anytime at all?
pootz: the thomson parentcraft hotline forever busy leh. been trying to contact them the whole day the woman says she is on another line will call me back. she never did even though i called them several times. -_-
u mentioned only weekday classes left? hubby is working 7 days a week till dec so i dont think he will be able to make it..

Idaar: Hmm.. Okie. But I would like to wait awhole cos sometimes babymall have 25% discount code for luvable friends. Came across before but that was before I was preggie. Will wait till Nov and see how. Will def organise a spree if I receive a good promo code.
Gregda: Sure. I bought from this store at around $14.30 with postage inclusive - after 15% discount. Combined orders with other mummies that time. Will be trying for 20% now.
Will be checking with the seller on the min order quantity. Anymore mummies keen? I will be getting 2. Need to get 1 more for my daughter again..

Joodz / Pootz:
I din register for Wong Boi Boi classes in mid oct coz they are evening classes on weekday slots ..
So I ended up with the dec schedule which we prefer to attend on weekends ..
Her classes are held at AMK hub, not at TMC ..
Try calling TMC main line to transfer to Parentcraft which I got thru easily ..
FBI member will enjoy disc .. i think 10% ..
Hope it helps ..
Mums:
One more day to the detailed scan ..
Both me and my hubby cant wait to see the bb again ..
Btw, is anyone going for the CordBlood seminar tomorrow ?

Thanks Geri,Precious Babi and Mrs Ong. Yap,luckily by girl is fine.. if not I'll be in a loss in wat to do.
faithnhope,idaarshad and mummies who know the bb's gender congra ">
Val, joodz no need to be embaress over putting the breastmilk in the office fridge. I did that over a yr in my previous job and the male: female ratio 10:1 haha.
They will respect your decision to BF ur bb as not a lot of mummies can and is willing to do it.
If u r really uncomfortable with it, after expression, just put the bottle in the cooler bag and put them into the fridge together.
Excess BF
I'm label as NZ cow during that period as I've too much BF for my first one. Hence, I'll store the excess in the breastmilk bag and put in the freeze. Remember to label each bag the date and time of expression and always practices First in First out,if not the BF will be wasted as due to our weather, BF can only be stored in Freezer for 3mths (recommended by TMC parentcraft)
Pre-natal class at TMC
joodz, if ur hubby is not able to accompany u to the class, try to get your friends to accompany to the days where ur hubby is not able to make it. As there are some excerise where u need to hv 2 to perform and with the company u will feel better. (My hubby is unable to attend with me too during my first pregnany and I've to attend it alone. I've to miss some activities as I've no partner. During the sessions, seeing everyone has their hubbies, really make me miss hvg my hubby there too)

Remember to label each bag the date and time of expression and always practices First in First out,if not the BF will be wasted as due to our weather, BF can only be stored in Freezer for 3mths (recommended by TMC parentcraft)
Pre-natal class at TMC
joodz, if ur hubby is not able to accompany u to the class, try to get your friends to accompany to the days where ur hubby is not able to make it. As there are some excerise where u need to hv 2 to perform and with the company u will feel better. (My hubby is unable to attend with me too during my first pregnany and I've to attend it alone. I've to miss some activities as I've no partner. During the sessions, seeing everyone has their hubbies, really make me miss hvg my hubby there too)
Hi mummies~
I'm back from my detailed scanning!! My baby is healthy! No cleft lips, 10 fingers and everything is normal. Placenta not low. And my gynae said my baby is a exhibist. Hahahaha! Keep showing his pte part and whatever she want to see. And therefore she did 1 3d scan and let me see my baby's face. He's so cute!! 1 hand covering his ear, the other at his mouth like want to suck thumb like that. Hehehe.. And she said my baby is very active, keep kicking. =p And she said her 3d scan charges is $150 which will include a CD. But now baby still too small to do. I want to do!! Hehehe.. $150 doesn't seems too ex to me... And my baby is 351gram. She said he's skinny. Hee hee...
Anyway I asked her about the umbilical cord thingy. She said it cannot be prevented but now is still too early so she asked me don't worry. And cos now baby still very small, she said don't have to monitor the movement yet. Next visit then she'll tell me how many kicks should I monitor each day.
And she mentioned about my weight gained again. Hahhaa! Argh. I've gained like 3kg! *sigh* But she said luckily I'm slimmed to start off with. But still, have to monitor. She said don't eat too much junk food. =p And an average of 2kg a month is ok for me. Bleh. She asked me don't drink milk cos that will contribute to lots of weight gained. But I also don't drink milk in the first place. Lol~ She asked me to swim if I'm a swimmer (which I'm not!) or walk. She asked my hubby to bring me go shopping, as a form of exercise. Hahhaa! And guess what, she said week 36 is labour and I've only 16 weeks to go! But I calculate the date will be before CNY! I hope my baby will come out only after CNY. Hmm...
My next visit will be on 29th October. So long! Supposed to be 22nd that week but she's on leave. =( Help~~ I can't wait~~
And oh, my baby is still a boy. Hahahahahaha~ =p

pinkyval: your detail scan sounds so exciting! my sonographer did not engage in much talk with me and the only thing she said was baby looks fine. never offer 3d scan or anything like that. $150 for 3d scan sounds okay, though sometimes im torn between wanting to know baby's face and not wanting to know. haha. want it to be a surprise.
you've gain 3kg since pre-pregnancy? sounds okay what. ive gained 5kgs to date.
baby want to take angbao.. hee..

@joodzjoodz: Haha! Cos she sees my baby today keep exhibit so she let me see a 3d scan of him. She said if my baby facing down then she also won't do cos can't see anything. But too bad she didn't print out a photo. I think by seeing my baby's face in a 3d scan and seeing him after he's born will still look different bah.
Oh no, I'll be very happy if I only gain 3kg since pre-preg. I gained 3kg in a month! And to date I've gained like 8kg already! Average of 2kg a month. *sigh* I don't want to be fat. =(
Hahahha! But I want to eat the CNY food! I hope he don't be too excited to come out. Hehe..

@Joanne: I'm with gleneagles too but I did my detailed scanning in my gynae's clinic. She did it for me. Just like normal scanning but more detailed. Can scan for the heart, lungs, stomach, blood vessels, brain, eyes, nose, mouth, hands, legs, fingers, placenta, umbilical cord all those. Why are you doing yours in NUH?

Hi mummies...
Been a silent reader and not much postings from me...haha so lazy =X
congrats to all the mummies who already had detailed scans with good results...i'm still waiting for mine to come on the 4Oct, which is next next week...argh so long!
Haven't manage to confirm the gender yet though gynae said most likely a gal, but i prepare myself in case my gal turns out to be a boy... =P
dun wan to pin too much high hopes.
pootz/joodz - i have attended Mrs Wong's class before when i had my #1. Her classes are conducted at AMK then, not sure whether there is any change of venue now...she tends to speak abit fast (or mayb i'm slow) though, but i can say she's v experienced and i did learn something though i totally throw everything back to her (breathing exercises) when i was in labour =P
Ida - hey there, i'm from the Mar09 thread too...hee, purchased the nursing poncho from u b4... =)
Re: breastfeeding
For those mummies who are concerned abt storage of milk in the office or work, might want to consider purchasing the fridge-to-go bag. Used to have a spree for this. It acts like a mini fridge and can last for 4 to 6 hours depending on the cooling panels u use. Its pretty good i feel....the coolness is more lasting then normal chiller bags. If paisei to put bottles of milk in the fridge, can always put them in cooler bag then put in the fridge, which sometimes i use to do...hahaha...but ok la, my office is female environment so i jus store in the fridge openly =P

Val your gynae expects your bb to be out by 36 weeks?
Shouldn't be right... I know 36 weeks is considered full term and by then it's pretty safe if the bb comes out, but usually by natural delivery it still tends to be near EDD?
mine was 4 days b4 EDD... but I know there were some people who had to do C-section earlier cos their kids were exceeding 4kg way before EDD...
yr bb is still quite small sized right? so don't worry, hopefully will come out nearer EDD.
any other second time mummies had first bb come out way before EDD? around 36 weeks?

Trinket,
NOpe, Mine was out one day before EDD, 40 weeks.
36 weeks is when its considered "safe" to deliver I guess, but prob better to bake our buns a little longer!

trinket - think 36 weeks abit early though considered full term. Best is still after 38weeks.
For my case, was induced on week38. Gynae gave me the option of delivering or waiting for another week for bb to come naturally, i.e. if by week39 my bb still show no signs of coming out gynae will then induce. But i don't want to wait already cos bb did not grow much for the past one week so i thought better to deliver and pump him instead of staying in the womb for another week.

@preciousbabi: Hahahha! Hannor! Hope when he grows up don't be too naughty. Hehehe... My hubby said he was sleeping but I don't think so leh. He kept moving. Hands and legs keep move put in different position. Yeah, he did. Cos I kept emphasize to him that I'm doing detailed scanning. Lol~ Don't have high hope of him accompanying me for my next visit though. Wahhh.. My cousin's birthday is one day after yours! Hahaha!
