allets,
U are not being kan cheong to buy bb stuff now. I find in fact now is the right time, since got fair, year end promo, etc. Imagine by then Feb/Mar, our tummies will be even bigger and will be more difficult to go shop.
I already start stocking and buying some necessities stuff and put in my mum's plc, since my MIL kept telling me dun buy yet, how to dun buy right. Wait till give birth then everything dun hv how.

angelia, can de la, it's all about persistency. Mine was weak. haha. I was at TMC that time, was so painful till I couldn't lie still, then one stupid nurse still tell me not to anyhow move, becos of the monitor (monitor bb's heartbeat), forgot wat it's called. I almost told her off, 'it's very painful, how to keep still, ask her wana try.' haha. Painful mummy is angry mummy.
After happy-dural, i really could keep still, even slept till time to deliver... but it kinda went off after i delivered, i felt pain during stitching, ouch!

sinful choc: its not too early to buy the pump now la, i also racky around then i buy.
all mothers have milk, trust me, its just how to go about telling yr brain to produce milk....
chen: that machine is CTG machine...same lor! i also scolded the tmc nurse, ask me to relax when i was in the labour room, said she wanna put drip on me, if i dun relax she cant do it...so i took down my laughing gas, and i still buckle up mu strength and told her "i so pain how to relax!"

sinful choc, if u're dtermined to bf, sure have milk! However, if u are really unsure, u can research the pump u want and the place tat sells, then get yr hub to purchase after u've delivered. Maybe not from pre-ordered sprees or wat lor. You won't use it immediately after birth anyway, takes days for milk supply to come in. If supply comes in early, u can also latch direct 1st... my views la.
Allets> never do and dun intend to do cord blood...waste money and too exp for my expenses...
Dun think current technology is advanced enough for real good use...
Just personal preference and opinion..
My friends who are bio teachers and in genetic field also Nv do... So.. Since not within budget not doing...
The risk of getting one of those blood disease that can make use of cord blood Also very very low....
Yup...
Bee> no pampers booth...
No NUK booths also...

babybride: I haven't gotten my breast pump yet, so not buy the parts, perhaps in Dec.
limlim: ya lah, it's still cheaper than buying a NEW set.
Allets: i think now cordlife got promo lah, pay like $2500++ for 21 years... nothing else in between, am thinking of going down to the parenthood fair to sign up....

i keep the cordblood for my #1, i remember is $700-800 for the 1 time payment, include the 1st year storage leh ... then subsequent yr i pay $250. My fren store with with stemcord too & said my name when she register, so i got $50 discount and I paid only $200 this year. I heard even if u dun recommend anyone, pay by UOB card still got 10/15% discount leh .. anyway, this is only like a insurance lor .. like rach said, chance to use it is very slim .. in fact i also hope i dun have to use it lar .. so this time i also dunno if i should keep for my #2 ..

babybride: $2475 is the initial payment, one lump sum. Then no subsequent payment.
If you opt the annual plan is $450 upfront then $250 yearly.
10 yr plan is $1475 upfront then $250 from yr 11 onwards.
The lady told me the govt match $ for $ for the CDA, that's why you pay half of the $900.
