hihi,



how much is NTUC cotton undies?

I used to like the Guardian ones and recently tried the Cold Wear ones, which r pretty comfy and like cotton undies.



Guess week b4 xmas will be a busy week. I've already started the first of my xmas luncheon yesterday (indon food - yums) and the kids and gift exchange and a lot of fun. Later tonite will be another gathering and more food.. tonite is ipoh hor fun and popiah gathering. hope I will not put on too much.

I see mums putting on only 1kg... I hope I can too [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]



I've been getting lazy again! no mood to move much nor exercise... how to motivate myself ?



Lilprecious,

after telling my dr I had fainting spells, she prescribed a type of iron vitamin supp, called floron. After taking I feel a lot better. Just fyi..

 

[rayrachel]

Butter> 2packs for $6.10 I think... $3.95 per pack usual price..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[starfruit12]

Yo Mummies-- oso went to KPO yesterday at NEX..so many peo siah..

toking about strollers, went to see Spring--like the peg pegero mentioned by 2Ks, Peg pegero SI, combi urbanwalker, Capella S705...





2Ks, can i check w you, Peg pegero piko can the direction be turned to face us when we pushed the stroller?



RACH, check w the SA on Capella S707, she says S 705 is the latest???thot is S707 leh...



LAILAI- peg pegro SI is nice too and light-Java is what colour? I oso thot the black a bit bored..



haha

 

[starfruit12]

Mcclaran Quest is for 3 mths and above oni??..my friend gave mi one..but cannot turn and face us de..

 

[rayrachel]

Aardwolf> S707 is latest but I'm

Not sure if they came out with S705 another edition?



Or the ones they carry latest is s705 and they dun carry s707??

 

[nikiko]

Linda, heavy meh? It's lighter than my combi leh, haha...



Blueroti, yes I find the price worth it for a Maclaren and for travel usage, so cannot expect too much. I'm happy with my purchase! Hehe...

 

[xuelyn]

Mummies

Wanna meet up soon? 27 Dec mon can? Lil precious polliwogs sounds gd been there a few time n my gal luvs it!



I sian lei.. Tat day went tmc cos of spotting. Doc say nt to wry but gt infection.. A v bad one sigh.. Then when I was leaving tmc suddenly head spinning almost faint kind so scary.. Luckily hb came n pick me.. If nt Jia lut..



Let me Noe if 27 Dec ok anot hor..

 

[blessedmummie11]

Rach n cae: ya.. I jus rem! Hahaha.. Okok, we meet the wk aft next...



Summers mommy: I dono if I can make it on the 27th.. I gotta cfm again.. Hehe.. We're thinking of trying Royce this time.. =D

 

[blessedmummie11]

Butter8: I see I see.. Mine is normal iron pills called sangobion for sth.. Haha.. Mayb u've gt low blood tts y gt giddy spells.. Hehe.. Tk care ya! =D

 

[mercsboy]

Starfruit: the latest model of peg perego can be adjusted to face u... But it's like rotate the whole thing, take out and rotate. Like that it's actually better cos it's sturdy. U can compare capella and combi miracle turn, it's adjusted by the handle which makes the whole stroller seems flimsy.



No offense to combo and Capella strollers hor...

 

[xuelyn]

Lilprecious

Royce exp wor.. Mus sign up membership first n it's $50 to b a member..

 

[mercsboy]

Erm Starfruit, why must bb face u? U prefer that huh? Actually most strollers have a "window" where u can see bb when u are pushing one...

 

[butter8]

Playgym: what about the one at kallang leisure? It's nice n has cafe inside but I forgot wats the name. My boy enjoyed it.

 

[belindaasun]

allets: the belinda u refering to is me ah? no leh i never send u any mail! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]Btw, little foots expo got cancelled! I called EXPO and asked them 2 days ago! Got family expo though, but think today last day. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[ratnamishra]

Royce membership is 50 but each subsequent visit is just 12 [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] n it's cleanest of the playgyms I've visited. But no cafe inside although lots of eating options just outside.

 

[ratnamishra]

Agree with 2ks that pegperego switch n bugaboo r sturdy Altho ma fan cuz need to take out seat n turn it every time but still I like bb facing me, at least in first 6 mths, so I bought miracle turn. Aprica Laura also not bad I feel..

 

[ratnamishra]

Pixiepixel n other csect mummies, do u find ur scar itchy now? Mine is super itchy! ESP when my pants (below the bump style) n undies shift n lie on the scar... Maybe it's cuz skin is stretching!?



Anyone experience?

 

[aaa0708]

Pinkypink mine is okay leh... Not itchy at all... Mine went through twice c-section... Yr 2007 n 2008... So its only 1.5 yrs apart...

 

[ratnamishra]

Aaa, so is this the last one ur planning to have? Csect can only haf 3 right?



Agghhh, mine is ok when I wear things that dun irritate it but itchy otherwise, also 1.5 yrs since my csect. Irritating!

 

[blessedmummie11]

summer's mommy: ya, its quite ex thou.. but pinky highly recommended..wahhahahahaaa.. im nt too sure leh.. if nt, we get Rach's opinion?



butter8: i tink i noe which one u talking abt! hehe.. i heard its v v big n can jus tk our time to play in dere for 10 bucks? =D mayb we can try tt too! =P isit peekaboo playclub?



pinky: i had a surgery b4 i got preg w Jav.. n my scar itched when i was having Jav..gynae said its due to stretching.. this time round w this lil bb nw is nt too bad.. it itches at time but nt as bad as Jav's time.. mayb cos seasoned liao.hahaha..

Hi mummies



If anyone interested in pigeon disposables breast pad, og now selling 60+12 pcs @ $13.90 instead of usual 18.90... Bought 2 boxes earlier on.. Btw, during confinement, any mummies can share how often u need to change e breast pads? 2 boxes of supplies like not v enuff to last long hor? U think should I stock up more? Heehee..



Btw, thinking of getting Tollyjoy detergent.. Any lobbing where get is cheaper? I saw kodomo 2litres detergent is selling @ 15.90 over at Chinatown Swanson? Is this e usual price?



Btw, for Bb wipes, anyone of u bought from those Chinatown stores that sell all e shampoo etc ( those shops near cheong choon )? Cos saw pigeon /j&j bb wipes selling @ 3 for 6.90.. But when turn e packaging, think e pdts imported from thai, cos some of e wordings in thai.. Than i dare not buy even though it's cheap.. Any mummies bought from these stores b4 or u think its still safer to buy from dept stores which is sellin 3 for 10.90?



Regards

 

[lai_lai]

2Ks, my neighbour bought bugaboo bee! Super solid n sturdy but looks very big to me! Anyway, not cheap. They bought it @ about $1k! =O



Won_mummy, ya same here! If yr urine is very yellow, gonna be careful coz my gynae told me that I'm prone to UTI so when symptoms like these (bladder always full but difficulty to urinate, super yellow urine,etc) occur, I better drink lots n lots of water. I'm still going to toilet often but not as xinku n urine not that yellow when I drown myself with lotsa plain water.

 

[bejewel]

Sorry to interrupt,

I've 3 packs of BN Drypers New Born (28 pcs) selling at $6.50 per pack. Interested pls email me at [email protected]

 

[ratnamishra]

2ks, bugaboo bee very nice but I hate the fact that it's so hard to have baby facing u..



Lilprecious, Wah Ecp very faaarrr! But shd b ok to join on 27 [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] count me n sunay in too! Thx fr the info on the scar itching! I was getting worried Liao!!



Sezariya (not sure spelling correct or not) is the restaurant next to Royce, not bad food n quite cheap!

[blessedmummie11]

Pinky: hehe.. Ya a lil far but tot of trying it out.. Keke.. We can slowly travel out tog aft tt! =D



Aaa: hehe, mayb u can join us next round!

 

[rayrachel]

Allets> depends on how much u leak... I change my breasts pads twice a day.. Only when I bathe.. And they are usually not that wet.. Maybe a few drops kind...

I think I only used 2-3boxs of the 36pcs pack Lo...

This time i only stock 2 boxes cuz still have leftovers...



I'm using tollyjoy detergent and it's always ard $7.90 per bottle. Refill packs sometimes $6.90..



I usually get pigeon wipes at 6for $19.50.

I dun buy the 3 packs one cuz more exp... Unless run out and no more wipes.. Apparently can buy from robinsons la.. With the 5% rebates..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[jacrudo]

Allets,

if u are going to JB, can try jusco cos i just bought 6 packs of pigeon wipes from there at 35RM. so u may wanna go shopping there and buy some stuff there too

 

[poky]

2Ks,

i prefer to have bb facing me when younger... cos afraid later she anyhow turn, cannot "breath", then i pushing her from behind cannot c.... else, she so small.. rolled till to the v side,, also worried.. so i got another stroller that have reversible handle so that can c her easily without worries.. my other two maclaren stroller, no windows de.....



allets

for my previous, i used up 4-5boxes... cos i bf my gal til she 1yrs old. changing rate was higher at the begining, cos wasnt able to pump out regularly. so always drip out. soaking type... when i get back to work, was more constant, so drippin wasnt occuring that often liao.



i waiting for nxt yr taka bb sale,, cos i stil hv $100 taka voucher leh... nothing to buy at taka,, so planning to use it at bb sale to get playtex milkbags n pigeon breastpads.



but also wondering shld i try those washable breast pads.. any mommies with experience on those washable type? convenient to use??



2Ks,

thx for the update on the annaku wipes pricing. =) but in the end, stil decide to use tollyjoy cos no scent.. hubby prefer those without scent. but i bought a few packs of annaku wipes for my usage in office instead!! haha

 

[redlets]

morning mummies!



hmmm.. maybe i have overstocked the breast pads liao.. heehee.. no expiry date de right?



Tan - thanks! but where is jusco? city square nearest to custom got sell? maybe ask hb drives in this thursday when my long long year-end break begins!

 

[rayrachel]

Allets> depends on how much milk u will have initially...

Although I'm still breastfeeding rayanne now at 15mos, I stopped using breastpads at the most 3rd month..

Can't rem.. But there comes a point when demand and supply will match and ur Breast is able to regulate supply and then u won't leak... Once ur supply is stabilized, there's no need to use breastpads cuz there shouldn't be any leakage.. Unless u have over supply which is caused by overstimulation of breasts maybe due to overpumping...



So no Need to stock up too much.. I would think 2 boxes is pretty fine now.. If by the time u start on 2nd box still leaking alot then buy some more Lo...

Many places have it at $13.90 de... Quite frequent...

The 36pcs would be at $8.90 cheapest.. Else usual price is $11.90...[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Just my 2cents worth..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[won_mummy]

lailai - yes. my urine is more yellowish. but its only e morning's 1st visit. have been like that since i start e multi-vit. maybe is bb pressing thats y i feel like going to toilet more often. n yes, m also still drowning myself w plain water..hehe



rach - view e carter's yday. dont think m buying this time cos mostly winter clothes. tks for informing.

 

[lai_lai]

Won_mummy, ya then yrs should be fine! =D mine will be yellowish throughout the day...discharge also yellow... so no good lor. I must drink a lot a lot of water...

 

[pinkjji]

Lil precious,

May I ask does jav know u are expecting another baby?

How do u explain to him or what reaction given to u.

I have been telling my boy abt it but seems like he dun really get it. And when I ask him to sayang my stomach he keeps slapping it.. Haha now when I ask him where is little brother he point to his own stomach.

 

[audian]

rach, why do we need disposable undies during confinement huh? Sorry me very blur hehe.



poky, i've bought the washable breast pads (Avent - pack of 6) on my colleague's recommendation. She says it's much more comfy, and that time robinsons 25% sale so i grabbed. But think i'll get a box of disposables as well for the initial stage which i suppose will leak more, can just throw no need to worry about washing.



Annie, wow u bought the Maclaren Quest! Nice nice, i din manage to go NEX cos hb say sure alot of people hard to find parking. Ask u ar, do u intend to hang your bb bag on it? I m concerned will topple... Not just the Maclaren Quest, but lightweight strollers in general like Combi etc... cos now i am eyeing the Quinny Zapp Xtra, which is very lightweight too, love it alot but my sole concern is toppling!



Anyone bought Quinny Zapp Xtra, can review pls??

 

[audian]

Lailai, speaking of discharge, do u find that your discharge quantity is much more these days? Wonder if that is normal....
