From my experience the 3M sleepsuits from carters lasted my boy till two weeks old only! He was born 51cm, the feet area so tight! So this time I bought 6M. Also looks tiny to me. Hahaha.. But i know 9M is definitely too long.

I usually swaddle baby and tuck under a light blanket. Shouldn't be too airy i guess!

same height as my boy ... but back then i buy mothercare more lolz so still abit bigger but again cannot remember last how long ...think i better buy bigger :D but if buy bigger no chance to shop for more leh :p

my boy stopped swaddles at 2wks old but i will make sure got blanket and beanbag on him lah :p

I reckon I won't have time to shop for the entire family for CNY. So I better buy a pretty set to stand by first! Lol. You can stand by both too? Mine will not clash with CNY but the full month and CNY should be less than two weeks apart only!

http://blog.moneysmart.sg/opinion/income-inequality-in-singapore-our-annual-peek-2013/

Monthly Gross Wages
The low income group makes about $800 to $1,500 a month. Mind you, there are some who earn far less than that. Either they’re not on the record, or have variable incomes (e.g. odd job workers).

The middle income earners make between $3,500 to $5,500 a month. For more on this wide ranging group, you can look up the Ministry of Manpower’s reports on wages). You should probably do that anyway, to make sure you’re not getting ripped off.

High income earners (company directors, senior management, etc.) tend to earn between $11,500 to $16,600 per month.

PS: the statistic in this quite questionable lolz ... $11.5K per month = high income meh ...
then i must be surrounded by alot of these pple lolz ...
