modisch, thanks will remember the freezing tip if and when I manage to go...fingers crossed! What your friend did sounds like a good idea, will consider haha. Planning to buy the breastpump etc there too, cos so much cheaper. Actually wanted to buy the baby stroller there too, but DH put his foot down and said no way 
Janice, don't be silly, girls are also good!! In fact many pple think it's good to have a girl as first child, cos easier to handle. Plus can dress up and will be filial to mummy [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] It's only your #1 so can try for a boy the next time [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
I have been using the clarins oil cos given to me by my friend for xmas. Dunno whether it's good but I faithfully apply everyday, half bottle gone already! My friend said all her pregnant friends used it, so should be good hopefully?
I heard the Mustela stretch mark cream is very good, but haven't tried yet. You may wanna check that out, heard they sell at robinsons, can buy when have 20% sale.

janice, if u hardworking, go dwn chinatown n get it...realli save alot...i bot the same price as sunshine but lazy me...not applying daily but will make a must to do it cos tummy stretching liao...mus apply daily....as audrey said, it drip easily due to the design...i will get those travel bottle with the pump, to prevent the mess!!!
coopie -> i am also using Clarins.. hehe.. i only apply at night wor.. hehe.. Also, i called lan jie as well (my first ring) cos my tenant giving birth in March and use her as well. She is taken.. haha.. and i didnt take her recommendation of her friend. I also felt good communicating to lan jie.
Janice -> Dun be sad k. When you see your newborn, it will be different! =) But week 11 is abit early to tell i felt as they look the same. But dun give youself pressure k. I tell hubby yesterday as well, i wanted a boy and i know i might be little upset as well if it turns out to be girl so i understand how u feels esp with the first baby. You dun think so much, as long as baby is healthy and cute, girl or boy are still your precious right!

wendy: i also only apply at night but dunno how come so fast gone, i think i must use alot! maybe will try feimei's method of using the pump, but by the time i get down to buying the pump, i think i would have finished the bottle already haha.
yah still quite sad abt not getting lanjie, i didnt feel any "connection" with my current CL at all, but oh well no choice already, just gotta hope for the best.

Coopie - Nw 13 wk... But due to qtr closing cannot take leave to go in March cause workload will be heavy for my colleagues... Dun feel gd since I'm still going for ML this yr... So boils down to either April or May... But most likely April if possible... But still undecided where to go...
Was planning for US as gd exchange rate and outlet stores but i'm crossing it out for nw due to the long plane journey...

Jan-ice,
I'm also using the Clarins oil. Better start applying. I was applying only on and off initially but then the two sides got really itchy abt 2 weeks ago. Then I realised the skin was really tight and dry. I started applying my crabtree & evelyn body moisturizer & Clarins oil up to 4 times a day before the dryness and itch stopped. Think cos my belly suddenly expanded over that period thus resulting in the itch. So better start now since you're already crossing the 1st tri mark. For Clarins oil and stretch mark cream, Can buy cheaper from online websites too. There's free delivery usually.

Coopie,
Thanks for checking with your gynae. I agree it could be constipation that caused the pain. Cos I had rectum bleeding yesterday (and thus suspected piles). Tummy was real hard as if all clogged up. Weird thing is I don't need to use force leh and stools not hard. WIll have up up my fibre intake even more now!

My tummy expanded ALOT in the last few days!! It like suddenly boomed~~!!! My stomach feels very tight and hard iin the late afternoon..
I feel quite overwhelmed by the sudden increase in tummy size.. Just now i was staring at my tummy in the mirror and can't believe that it's actually ME~~~. Heheh.. Really feeling and looking pregnant now!!
Feels so scary yet exciting

baby_manja>my appt will be at 9.15am. Asked for the earlier ones so that the waiting time will be shorter! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] DH will be going with me. What time is yr appt? U signed the package ald?
Coopie>seemed like you're a foodie! Nv try the crab at Seafood paradise. Cos i very particular about crabs! Only like no sign board and a stall at Casaurina, Wah Hoe seafood. The chilli crab super nice! Mayb u can go try some day!
Feimei> thanks for the info on the ad on Today's paper but i'm late! Just saw yr post! Dunno tmrw can find 'Yesterday's' lying ard in my office anot! Lol!
Re babyplus,
Feimei> there's no volume control...
Coopie> i'm the one who uses a clothe to filter the volume myself. How to find the 1 hr every morning? Usually i will set alarm 1 hr before my actual waking up time. Then i just switch on the babyplus, leave it on my tummy and go back to sleep. Initially i find it noisy but gradually used to it so can just knock off almost immediately after turning on. It will auto off after 1 hr. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Re cordyceps,
Dun buy from eys cos its super exp. Try hock hua, or those small chinese tonic shops oppo 4 horse road temple. Or try de2 xin4 at chinatown. I buy my birdnest there. The price more reasonable. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
This thread is moving very fast! I scare i miss or forget to reply some post so now i will read using my itouch and reply each post immediately using my hp! My DH says i doing big business! Lol!

This thread moves so fast, if don't check often enough got alot of "homework" to do haha. I was checking on my ipad then had to switch to laptop cos so many things to reply, hard to type on the ipad haha!
Janice, glad you've thought things through, girl's perfectly good too. If you think abt it, just the thought of having a "product" that is the result of you and DH is amazing isn't it? Boy or girl is not important. Anyway you're not that old, I'm only 1 year younger than you and still wanna have another one [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Nanamum, yah sometimes I can't really believe I'm pregnant too, though my stomach and pain clearly show it Just seems so unreal somehow, but yes definitely very exciting [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] Imagine the excitement when the baby's actually born and you are staring at what used to be in you...awesome feeling!

btw can't remember who was the one who gave me the gardenia milk bread recommendation but thanks, i've been eating that and it's really nice [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] also got calcium pills from gynae today so hopefully baby wont suck up too much of my calcium from me...
also can't remember who i was having the cloth diaper discussion with, but did some research and there are these all-purpose cloth diapers these days that are supposed to be alot easier to deal with than the traditional cloth ones.
they are supposed to be almost as practical as a disposable, you can put a liner so dont have so much shit to wash, and they are supposed to be made to prevent leakage. each diaper is not cheap but supposed to be able to last for long time, and can reuse for 2nd kid also.
there's a singapore brand called Bumwear that makes these, the printed designs look very cute. from the states, the best brands are supposed to be bumgenius and fuzzi bunz, but they're alot more ex than Bumwear i think.
am thinking of trying a mixture of disposable, traditional cloth and modern cloth diapers and see which ones i/ baby like best [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
