Hello ladies! I'm also due in May 2014..:) Just wondering if where do you ladies buy your maternity wear. I'm wearing mostly dresses but need some decent work pants.

There are a couple of shops in Vivo. Another alternative is to buy plus sized clothes from the US/UK brands such as Dorothy Perkins/M&S. That's how I used to get mine done.

You can try H&M Orchard or Vivo, they've got a good range of maternity wear. Otherwise Spring Maternity is also a good option for work clothes :)

I get mine from Spring Maternity. Not sure about H&M in Singapore but H&M in Shanghai sells maternity wear too. If not, you can try from the BP page in this forum.

Wow. H&M Shanghai has maternity range? Wuhan outlets don't have. I just buy the plus sizes to wear. Between you and me, there's this tb retailer selling maternity stuff. The maternity pants are pretty good. I ordered mine this time from this retailer.

I actually prefer disposable breast pads leh, they absorb much better and I don't have to worry about washable ones not drying fast enough. I use both for different occasions.. At home use washable, when outside use disposable. Disposable I use the pigeon ones, try to get the big box - when they have sale it's $12.90 for a box of 60pcs I think. Otherwise I always see kiddy palace / isetan sells them for $13.90 a box.

Share links? I need to look for summer wear though. H&M Shanghai only has maternity range in selective outlets. Last time Zara also had maternity range for a short while then they stopped.

Rainbowzstarz, suppose to help to strengthen the womb so that the womb has "strength" to push the baby out and for more effective labour?

Suppose to drink only from wk 36 or 37 onwards- earlier can trigger early labour.

I din drink for my last 2 and this round wont be drinking as well. Its like some herbal thingy.

Coconut can start from wk 36-37 onwards - once or twice a week. Dad told me drink too much v liang later giv birth early. From wk 38 onwards can drink every 2-3 days... ;p its to "tao liang" (in hokkien).

Actually I take coconut water once every 2 weeks or so. Weather has been very warm of late and I can feel the body heat in my body building up. Usually I take chestnut water and 凉茶, but more careful of such drinks presently.

Wow! Haven't been here for sometime and the thread moved so much Liao! Notice especially on Valentina's day got so many posts!!! Hahaha...

I went to the expo baby fair last weekend and also got studio loft's package! Glad that can utilize it later cos I only intending to take when baby is around 5-6 mths... I took the family package. Haha...

Also got bosomi diapers... New brand from Korea... It was cheap so decided to try! Each pc is less than 23 cents at the fair if buy 1 carton, so I did. Hahaha plus got free delivery. =p

This Friday I will be going for the GD test, fingers crossed! Also I feel like I put on a lot of weight this past month! I think must be cos of all the CNY goodies....

I am thinking of getting my medela parts at take fair also... I remember last time can bring old bottles to exchange for new ones, not sure if now still can... Any mommies know about this?

Eat fruits? Or pitron is safe medication for flu.
Went to expo today but dun find the things there cheap ley. Like same price as outside unless we buy a lot. The pigoen wipes is more ex than outside. Only came bk with to.lly joys detergent which I suspect outside is cheaper. Din buy the carrier u all r talking abt Oso. Diapers Oso dun seem cheap until buy in bulk. I 'll rather go NTuc buy n still can earn pts.

The tollyjoy is seling $8.50 or $8.90 at kiddy palace so def the fair is cheaper as 2 for $16 am :)

Agree on other items seem not much discount.

I went cos of diaper but not much and end up w photo shoot package

Jts with everyone, there's a special insurance plan out in the market by AXA. It's called Mum's Advantage. Provides hospital coverage for preggies and can transfer to our babies once they are born as a term insurance. As long we are before 32 weeks and have not had any bed rest or pre existing conditions for this pregnancy, we can sign up for it. Good thing for our babies is that this plan can be transferred to them within 60days of birth without any underwriting.

I just got this plan. If you're interested you can check with your financial planner :)

Actually these days I monitor people selling online for items rather than going to the fair. I feel it's way cheaper, as long as the seller's location is on the way for me. Like Avent 125ml brand new 2 bottles I bought for $15 as compared to the prices retailing outside.
