betty.bad, how old is yr boy? adam i din start him.. dia yg start sendiri. Tak nak pakai diaper, nak pakai katok.. haha.. very tiring tau. lagi dat tym i was pregnant. but since he is ready, let him be...
 


hihi,
me juz got back from expo and taka.
Expo not much things this time.
Bought gaia powder and nestle cereal.
U know what, i was so kiasu that i was the first in queue for the goodie bag...haha.

At taka bought bumbo seat plus tray for $59.90. Me very hepi!!! Oh, and got a combi stroller too.

Shermin,
decorama is owned by your dad??
So kak ema is who to u? Personally for me i think decorama services are ok.
Heard some bad reviews about them but i don't have any probs with them during my wedding.
Aniwei maybe becos abang ben knows my hubby's family.

zu,
i will add u in my msn.
 
betty.bad
I trained him early tapi he wasnt interested then and it was quite tiring for me so I just let him be till one fine day before he turns 3, dia sendiri yg taknak pakai diapers lagi and went to pee in the toilet so it made my job easier. But now still wear diapers at nite, I tak tahu how to train him at nite..Some mothers said just let him have accidents in his own bed nanti after a while, he'll learn but the problem is that Im so lazy to clean up and wash the mattress.

Zu
I dah add u tau..
Yg lain tu add me kalau ada msn

Decorama- Rahim Angullia is my dad..Emma is my father's wife,u shld know what I meankan..hehehe
Ya heard abt bad reviews at times but the industry is like tht. So many competitors around, that explains.
 
Hey all,
Me pun baru balik jugak

Tak gi Expo pun. Lynzi tolong check kan - no luck wt organic meat

Shermin,
Last time when night training my DD, she wld go to bathroom before she goes to bed abt 8PM. Then I wld also take her to the bathroom before I go to bed. Sometimes she'll wake up, sometimes not so I just have to carry her lah. But mind you, I tidur lambat abt midnight gitu.

Now, she wld go to bathroom herself in middle of night if she needs to. I agree, first 2-3 weeks tu, can be frustrating because for sure they wld wet the bed. Nak kena cuci, then change sheets etc. Then if hari hujan, pile & pile of sheets. My DD now pun sometimes still got accident, once or twice a mth.

My tip is to take it easy, dont beat urself up abt it. Eventually the kid will get the hang of it

Waterproof mattress cover: Cost frm $79 onwards for single bed size. Tadi I gi First Few Years at Paragon, its $89.90 but only had 1 left. I tak beli, I need 2!

Zu,
Hahaha...happy hour depan PC! Thats what become of us huh??

Anyways, betul betul lah sama kaki you & me! I agree abt electrical on S'pore Expat. I bought one for my mum, 29" JVC still wt 6mths warranty at only $120! Furniture also not bed frm there...

Lynzi,
I tak pakai Gaia, I use Nature Baby frm NZ
happy.gif


Fida,
Welcome on board! Tell us more abt you & your baby
 
shermin,
wat a small world!
Didn't know kak ema has a daughter and even a grandson cos she always talked about her son aje.
If u ask her who is the minah purple then she will surely remember me..haha!!

Fida,
welcome welcome to the ever kecoh thread!

sasha,
i did try to check for u but don't have.
That time when i studied in oz i know there have organic meat.
My sis at hawaii also had organic halal meat but has to personally order online and they will deliver.
When i told my hubby u are looking for it, he said eh its a good idea to be the first sole distributor of halal organic meat. So he will probably ask his frens in oz about bringing it here. *cross fingers*
 
sasha
Sometimes when u ceritakan how you actually manage your kids kan, I wonder how you can cope with 4 different karenah eh?? It seems so easy like that.. I ni baru 1 dah rasa Im not being a good mother tau!! Not as rajin as you la..So when it comes to nak cuci mattress and bed sheets..hmmmmmm the letter "M" appears!

sasha/zu
What you normally buy online huh? Btw kat yahoo auctions, barang2 all 2nd hand? I never shop there before so boleh share how to tak? Must we get an account or something before we are able to purchase anything?

Lynzi
Your deco mesti purple all over eh, thts y dpt gelaran tu?!

Fida
Welcome to this kecoh and fun room...Hope you enjoy our company
 
shermin, if u gt yahoo email ac, u can start buying things there already. Got good mix of new and second hand items.. I bli a variety of stuffs there.. From baju to toys. Toys like Little Tikes, and Step 2 very good condition and cheaper than outside. I pon pernah bli cordless telephone there! :p In short, apape yg i nak bli i chk over pat auctions dulu. Kalo murah and gd condition, mesti la bli pat situ..
 
Shermin,
Yes, sure they all have their different characters & behaviour probs. That is normal. And oh please, dont say abt yourself - thats not nice tau. I pun have my days, not perfect
happy.gif
Of course I pun meradang...or sometimes I pun malas. But when it comes to the kids, I learnt to realise that most things they do, its not as if they sengaja & kalau dah wet the bed tu, then no choice kan but to cuci...of course, kalau 2-3days wet the bed...lain lah cerita - thats when my nagging start
happy.gif


Yahoo Auctions: Selalu for kids, I beli baju, shoes, toys etc. For myself pun ada jugak beli baju & beg
happy.gif
Also furniture & electronics & electrical. And have sold some there too. You just need a yahoo email acct dah boleh dah. But some sellers require you to have at least 1 rating before you bid but you can always email them if you sincere

OK, am off to send the kids to sch!
 
Hi there..Good morning to all mommies..Just would like to ask if anyone have anyone in mind for reasonable rates caterer for birthday parties..Me looking for one..Thank u mummies..Feeling headache ni so many things to plan for birthday boy..
 
helloooo

i 3 days tak kerje, tak dapat tengok computer.. this morning see the thread, kus-semangat..ingat nak jengok jengok aje.. interesting pulak story abt the toilet training.. i think i let my boy take his time la...

semalam at abt 6plus me and hb decided to drop by expo (rumah kite kan literally a stone's throw away). the baby fair dah lengang, cume baby contest aje ade org.. didnt spend much time there. we had nothing in mind to look for.

then went to the halal food thing, i thot its better than the last one. since dah nak tutup ade jugak brang lelong like those frozen food and i got bottles of cilipadi sauce.. hmmmm, sedap tu makan dgn ikan bakar.

shermin,
u hantar ur boy u sch kat mane? that eunos cc yg kat mane eh?
 
shermin,
yalah...all over in different shades of purple.
Even my room was in 2 shades of purple.
That's why dapat that gelaran.
happy.gif


sasha,
what u said about kids really rings true.
Will make u my inspiration when i'm frustrated wif my boy.

norarossi,
for catering it depends on the food.
For malay food, lauk2 kampung kind i take from my unlce's fren.
For chinese style, i prefer revada or elsie's kitchen.
For western the other day i took from eatzi gourmet.
Not bad.

My mil went back to terengganu since last fri so today i have to stay at hm and take care of faiq.
Wanted to take urecorded childcare leave but my p said cannot.
He asked me to take mc or no pay leave.
So inconsiderate.
 
lynzi
how come ur p can say cannot take childcare leave? this is the 2 days that all moms are entitled to kan? setau i takde pre-requisites if you want to take that leave kan...

memang betul kite working moms ade banyak restrictions walaupun gahmen encourage pple to have kids but employers tak support la...

i was "asked" to come back to work earlier before my 3 mths maternity is up..but a colleque told me the boss actually told her that if the company can make do without a staff for 3 mths then company wont need the staff anymore.. can u believe it!!!!

typical la, boss i one of those andartu.. then kalau nak ambik leave jgn la cakap anak sakit ke ape.. mesti dia kasi "black" face..to her staff with kids are ore troublesome. terrible this pple. pulak tu my dept i am the only staff with kid.. yg lain semue on the way to join my boss punye status..hehehhehe
 
thanks everyone for e welcome

lynzi...i tried to open ur excel...tapi tak boleh...and could u add me in the yahoo group...my email [email protected].
 
Nora,

You also got that experience? Me dulu 2 mths pregnant, dorang dah kasih I hal. Excuses that I can't do my responsibilty as to travel as and when. My HR sat with me during the skip meeting to settle the "misunderstanding" between me and the other manager. Cos I nak bring out this matter to MOM. Atlast the HR manager resign and I was allowed to resign as I was seem unfit. Can u believe it tak? I called MOM they said it's beyond dorang nye jurisdiction cos they cannot do something against my ex company nye employement policy. Now after I've left, I heard the HR manager came back to work again. Heard rumours from my ex colleagues, it's political issues. eee...geram I.
 
nora aw,
my p tu ngiau. Very the sot dot.
He said cannot take the unrecorded one as its still school term and i may need all full 5 days if my boy get sick later.
Ada ke boleh he said like dat.
He said he will only allow if its coming to the end of the year.
I dah tak kuasa nak argue.
He deosn't know i'm resigning soon so nanti baru padan muka dia mencacar nak look for another staff...haha.

Alamak, the excel cannot open?
Will try to post again.
 
idah,
are u referring to dec yahoo group?
If its that one then u have to ask csi_fan from dec thread to add u in as i'm not the moderator.
 
sasha
U are sure to be my role model la during training my son!! Thanks for the tips..and for the yahoo auction, I must try la!!

zu
Soon to be will be hooked agaknya with the auctions!!

nora aw(sekarang dah banyak nora kan so terpaksa call u in full)
I tak sent my son kat Eunos CC la..tu pasal I dgr mademoiselle ckp pasal Appom there sedap so I went to try. My son I hantar kat Bedok Reservoir since Eunos CC is also in Bedok Reservoirkan, I singgah to try out the Appom. U dah nak hantar urs to sch already? U tinggal mana?

Lynzi

Idah

Brand esprit. cume $250. Murah jgk eh..
not too bulky.
 
zu
i think sharena yg cari kan...murah jugak eh $250..Toy R Us mana?
Ala apa salahnya with the age..kan yg previous table ada our age posted..remember??
 
Hi semua!!

Welcome to new mommies yg join sini..dah tak keep track. Bn reading the thread for the past hour...pangajng sei!

I belum pop lah.Baru thurs ke fri I online kan.. Anw, Fri I gi Expo more for the babyfair than the halal food but the babyfair was sucha disappointment!! Nothing interesting.On the first day je dah lengang...very empty.Not like last year when they had it...very crowded.

Halal food fair was crowded. Teringin nk beli the Perlis mangoes but ramai org so when my mil gi on Sat, I kirim...besar mcm baby papaya!

Zu
Will chk out tht twin stroller u mentioned. I cari jugak kat toys r us but tak nampak pun. Went to the jurong pt one. u gi yg mana?

Saturday, had brunch at Eatzi Safra Yishun then decided last min to go to town with my hb and his fren and my sis. Went to chk out the babyfair again. Saw thw guard rail for $39 so grab lah cos I saw at toys r us for double the price. Then I bought the kiddopotanus snuzzler mcm zu belikan Sarah. And a few newborn rompers and 2pc suits.Nk carikan Farah kasut but no size. My sis and I berkenan the Clarks shoe but a pity lah...my sis yg nak belikan dia. In the end tak beli apa2 utk Farah.

On Sunday pulak rasa ter-rajin so masak rendang ayam (instant perencah) and my sis buat kuih choc cornflakes since ada bnyk leftover cooking choc. Evening we attended a wedding reception. Malam baru balik.

My mum and her hb came bk to Sg from UK yesterday so ambik kesempatan took mc from my gynae cos kebetulan ada appt. This morning they left for Penang...

This week is my last week of school. Wl be on leave next wk til 20 july...Can;t wait for the week to be over. I dah tak larat and so malas to walk here and there...Just feel like baring je but then baring bnyk sgt sakit pulak badan. Akrg driving long distances pun dah tak larat, sakit blakang and my upper bump mcm rasa semut2...Anw baby is already 2.7kg now at 36wks... 2 more weeks to go!

Sasha and zu
I ada fb acct but nothing there. More active in multiply...

Wah, dah lama tak masuk, terus panjang lebar tulis...
 
Idah
Mine kat 930 safra...

daec
I think they are connected thru the health products tu eh?

Sharena
there you are!! Thot dah pop..2 weeks to go, how all ready?? this time you opted for C-sect or no choice?

Btw, any mummies can share any good stretchmarks lotions/cream/oil? I know some say it wont help that much pasal stretchmarks is often due to genes..I nak just try out,since skin is also bit dry..thot no harm trying especially when in my 1st trimester ni..
 
Wah sharena,
thanks for updating us on how u've been.
Yah i can undertsnad how it feels to last 1 more week in school when u are heavily preggy.
Me counting down the days..haha.

Now dah werk so bz to log in here.
Can only do so when i'm home...sigh.
Now going out to fetch faiq pulak.

biggrin.gif


Shermin
for the stretchmarks - i used Clarins stretchmarks oil during preggy. i start when when i was 10-12wks. i did have stretchmarks during preggy fine lines ard my tummy but it fade away quite fast after deliver. now i dont have any stretchmarks. Maybe u can give a try. I heard alot of good review abt tis oil.
 
welcome Manisah & daec

re:stretchmark
my fren ever told me abt clarins too....its good...but the best thing is i tak yah nak use any cream or oil coz i tak de any stretchmarks or lines around my belly and punggung.....alhamdullilah....
 
Danryan
u must be the lucky one lah...i even pakai stretchmark oil satu badan pun still stretchmark appear..
sad.gif
tapi alhamdullilah with the help of clarins stretchmark oil. it fade away..
smile.gif


nora aw, Shermin
abt tis appom and thosai, u all try at bedok reservoir cc? how come i'm not aware eh ada kedai kat situ? it a restaurant or just like coffeeshop?
 
hi ladies..

I'm new to the thread here but been "floating" ard forum baca baca je. tot of park myself here. Me Ibu to 5 mth Ayuni and working still. Hopefully can keep track here. coz internet time is luxury time.

Hi daec!
Ur cousin here! lol.. small world. How's Nada?! dah crawling all over eh/

Hi Lynn
Me another east mum. staying in chai chee/bedok n working in ulu changi north.

Sorry side track abit. anyone ade tried doing words or dots flashcards on your kids or babies? Recently after printing some n buying some. tried ajar her at least 2 times a day.. depending on my daugher's mood also.. during her playtime or when she dah boring n wants attention boleh ajar her up to half hr. Sometimes, 5 mins only coz dua-dua pun dah penat. My mum will also teach her when i at work. I interested coz I amazed at kids if teach them, their memory superb.
 
hi styliciously

yup Nada crawling ard. now my living rm - the area infront of tv clear of furniture heheh We also put padding under the carpet.

I have not done those words yet. more focused on other things. have to see a Occupational Therapist as part of the premmie programme. They are focused on her learning fine motor skills now, learning use her fingers eg. hold small items in her hand, put stuff in cup. so I guess my mum follow that
 
lynn
the cc is eunos cc tapi kate shimmers kat bedok reservoir... i pun confuse. but u know la sekarang with all the rezoning even schools also pindah sane sini. ade time i nak pegi tengok jugak.. i like thosai

for stretchmarks i used vichy..t ak ingat ape product name. i dun get the stretcmarks until my last week of pregnancy.. not a lot tho..and most of it on my inner thighs... that area i tak apply the cream maybe thats why ade.
 
hi styliciously welcome welcome,
anewei changi north tak lah ulu sgtkan.. still consider east jugak. as for me tinggal bedok tapi werk at west.hari2 travel, mcm penat gitu..

nora aw
so eunos cc tu at bedok reservoir lah? baru lah i tahu. i ni tinggal je kat bedok reservoir tapi not very sure where is the cc. will check it out the kedai, coz i suka sgt masalah thosai.
during preggy tak menggedam lain cuma menggedamkan masalah thosai je, and had a hard time finding for 1 (of coz at dat time very the cerewet, nak yg sedap je klu tak berapa nice i wont eat. so funny when tink back). now only i realise there 1 near my house. OMG.
lol.gif
 
hi stylicious,
Hey, i pun kerja kat changi north. Dekatlah kita!
happy.gif


Sharena,
I pun dah rasa berat dan besar ni. Dah termengah-mengah seh... Ada Eatzi kat Safra Yishun? Makanan dia kat sana apa macam? Bagus tak? I makan kat Eatzi at Simei Eastpoint. Tapi rasa masih tak boleh beat Swensens lah.
 
ic
i think there is something wrong with the eatzi at eastpoint la. i pun dah pegi dua kali tapi both times disappointed. thot they shd match jack's place standard tapi tak kesampaian...

anyway last nite went to box bistro at court megamart, kat tampines ikea tu. apparently the box bistro is run by eatzi and its halal-certified. ok aje la food kat sane.
 
welcome styliciously

lynn02
ye lah these is my 3rd preggy...so far so gd tak de stretchmark

ramai jugak from the east eh...

ic/sharena

Afternoon mummies...
Lynzi, Thank you i have found catering through my mom in law. Anyway thank you for sharing yours with me..

Mamaliz..Thank you to u too for your reccommendation, saw the website not bad..

Hmm talking bout stretchmarks..i noe tat u r suppose to use this creams during pregnancy but is there any luck if u are using it now after giving birth..if tak le hilang completely,,will it fade??Hmm cause i feel disturbed with my stretchmarks at belly and thighs but surprisingly my mom did not have it..maybe i put on too much weight when im pregnant..
