i dah place my order with hj maimunah. bile tengok the menu on the website, macam besok jugak nak start puasa..hehhehe.. ala.. but the menu is subject to change la. They charge $190 for 10 days 3 pax.
from past years experiance i think i spent more when buying food outside for buke. maklumla tengah puasa, perut lapar, mate rambang tengok org jualan macam macam.. usually i go to eunos mrt there to buy food for buke.
talking abt noty kids, alahai.. my bro punye son tu.. baru 5 yo tapi kesian i tengok my sis-in-law selalu kena panggil dgn teacher... kena complain.. macam mane eh.. but the boy is ok with me.. will talk nicely and very polite but org lain dia suke pukul pukul and panjat panjat.. sebab tu kena complain. mak dia pulak anytime soon nak give birth to no. 3, then maid dia nak balik in 2 weeks time. kesian la.

maybe i will listen to hb lah.he ask me mcm mana abt the sunnat thingy. i yg ckp tunggu sampai bb besar then can do kenduri all tat lah. but hb say leceh,would be better to do after birth. see u all nyer suggestions,i think i stick to hb plan.
nora
kesiannya SIL u. but some kids like tat. since the boy listen to u,maybe u can try to talk to him. i tgk my anak sedara yg lelaki pun very noti. im expecting a boy,hopefully dier nanti tak noti sangat.ehehehe.....

hi ladies,
wow everybody dah tak sabar nak puasa eh. dah sibuk cari tingkat dinner. Yalah, I every year I always have problems with buka food, always tak sempat nak masak or too tired after work, sometimes tak sempat nak beli, then also got tired of the food from those Ramadhan Bazaar.
I was actulally looking at those website u all posted, problem is, I don't like some of the dishes ... so was thinking, & pondering ... then decided to call my mom & 'upah' her instead to cook all my Mondays-Fridays nye ramadhan dinner. She said she pening to think of what to cook for me but I said no probs, I'll set the menu (lagi best kan!) so my problems solved. Yg best nye, get to eat dishes from my fav chef in the world, my mom! So tadi I sibuk lah nak buat my ramadhan menu
Khatan,
my 17 mth old baby boy pun sunat when he's abt 4 wks old, if not earlier tapi pasal dia hospialised for 14 days right after he was born due to jaundice, so my hb and dad suruh tunggu another couple of wks.
idah,
u can always request for it, like I did, cuz I want to see my bb. But I under highrisk, so I get the ultrasound scanning every visit.
birthdays,
for me it's always a small family affair, kat rumah je, takde catering. once my mom masak briyani dam kambing (kambing from my son's aqiqah) for my gal's 4th b'day last year. Usually it's me, hb, our kids, my parents, my sisters and nieces & nephews, that's all. But the last 2 years abit quiet cuz both my niece & nephew kat boarding school in Penang, so on top of the usual guest lists, 2 of my cousins came for my bb boy 1st b'day in Feb and my gal's 5th b'day last mth. Usually I order pizza, lasagne from Canadian Pizza, puffs/pies from Polar, fried chicken from KFC, several bottles of soft drinks and a birthday cake. Semua makan ringan2 yang easy to eat and good to eat. I used to pack goodie bags for the kids, now the kids cuma my own kids and one nephew. But the main thing is, everybody had fun and it's good family time for all of us!

Hello ALL!!!
I'm selling my Medela Swing Breastpump + Medela Carrier (which consists of the bag, ice pack and 2 bottles)
I used it for onli 4+ mths, after which my girl turned 1 and I stopped expressing at work in hope I could wean her off the breast (Bah! She still nids it to go to sleep at nite.)
Aniwey..the pump has served me well and served Alisya her milk for the 4 mths. Previously I was using the single electric, which was not so great as the swing.
So any mummy-2bs interested?
I bought the Medela Swing + Carrier from www.firstfewyears.com.sg. You can check the orginal prices from there.
Selling both at SGD 250.
Interested parties pls PM me. Thanks!

Hello,

hello justme..
my girl dah 6yo but kalau tak silap i, its less than $50 or so lahhh...we sent her to countryside clinic at yishun/ chong pang there..
preferably i think sunnat kan is better...cos wat i figured out is that kalau tak the diff can be seen actually, as in physically lahh at the "area"...in terms of religion im not so good on the reasons...n tak berani nak comment..hehehe

i pulak i read the bk 'Islam for dummies' (heh, yah...i'm tt shallow) and there was no mention of sunat being compulsory for girls. Plus, I asked my fren and found out its onli Sunnah (or is it spelt Sunnat). Do and don't do no diff. And wat i read oso, in Africa its done so as to disable the girl's ability to get aroused. And it's actualli ban in some countries.
but it's all up to individual lah k.

justme
Coincidentally kan, at the time when we want to sunatkan my doter, there were a lot of commotion in the news about whether it was compulsory or not. At first we decided tak payah sunatkan dia. But after all that, we were told to do it as 'penuhkan syarat'.
I went to Dr Masayu at Clemes=nti for only $30. I actually saw her do it cos I had to hold my bb's thighs. My bb was at that time 2 mths old. She only cried for a very short while when it was snipped...I think it was cos the scissors was cold so terperanjat. As in sakit, I dun tink so cos right after that dia diam je. Dr Mas only gunting sikit je, v v little! I pun tk nampak sgt. Well I think kita di-encoragekan to sunat anak pompuan.
In Africa tu lain pasal they actually mutilate and not sunat! They cut the clitoris away which is not right in Islam.
I hope this helps...

Thanks Sharena,mamaliz and azlifah.
If that's the case, sunatkan ajer lah. susah sangat.. tapi bercinta lah nak tengok baby kiter kesakitan... =(
And I think lepas hari barulah I bring daughter pergi sunat. I heard kat bedok provide this service. Dr. Balqis or something like that. Sharena, can share the clementi contact and address?
Thanks!.

hmmm...i think the pricing is like wat sharena said lahh..i tak ingat sangat pasal dah 6 yrs ..hehehehe...n its true dat the snip is jus very very little..tak nampak apa apa pun...i oso kena tengok,at first i said i tak nak see her in pain but the doc yg suruh tengok..nangis kejap jerr..terperanjat, den kasi susu panas( u have to prepare the susu in hand to pacify her)den..she demam jus one day, the next day dah ok...
n i think i got read sumwhere oso..abt the africa thing, they mutilate!! not sunnat...adoi~..
justme..
i rasa u call up the clinic first kan n ask their opinion when the best time to bring her down..cos dat time i saw a lot of peeps at the clinic bring the babys down when they're still young like 2 mths like dat...

idah...are you due in december as well? i was told by my gynae that i'd have 2 detailed scans beside the routine ones.had the 1st one during 21st wk and the next one can't remember exactly sumtime in the 30 something wk

hello sharena...heard the same thing,c-sect kat mt e quite ex but for normal delivery i dengar
nt much difference with other private hospitals macam mt a or tmc...harap2lah delivery tu normal.
kat mt e the medisave limit seems to be lower also that's why more ex maybe.
idah...how about u? which hospital? saw u asked in another thread about john little baby sale,
i think it's over olredi on 12th august but tomorrow taka baby fair will start.

yup i'll go to taka tmrw morning *semangat* (dun even know what time they'll open?).
the sale is at the basement 2 if i'm nt mistaken, the usual place where they always have different kind of fair.
orang kata too early to buy things but i think i won't listen hehehe
later when i hit last trimester scared become malas coz big tummy nanti susah nak pergi shopping n might nt have sale anymore til xmas time.

hi everyone....
welcome to the new ones... glad u guys found this thread.. the more the merrier!!!
apelah sharena.. buat i excited aje tengok ur multiply.. nak tau jugak ape the story... nanti i chk lagi la
dinut
what i heard is the nurses at mt e are very nice. but kalau u kena c-sect the price between a planned c-sect and an emergency c-sect jauh berbeza. bec kalau u emergency than the gynae got to call the kaki kaki to join her in the OT and these pple charge for their services individually for being called at short notice.
My gynae is at mt e too, but i delivered at SGH bec i was in high risk category and my bill wld be very high. Even at gh my bill was abt $7500!!! for a planned c-sect and 10 ten days stay
I joined the pre-natal course at mt e (which went to waste bec i didnt go into labour) and at the end of the course they brought the participants to tour the labour suite, the wards etc... frankly the wards are a bit small to me. lagi lagi kalau u take the 2 bedder... stretch ur arms and u can touch the lady on the other bed hahahhah

hahaha...that's what i heard about the 2 bedded ward shld probably take 1 bedded then
plus i heard kalau dapat 'neighbour' dengan visitor2 yang banyak n bising nanti susah jugak nak rest.
how was the course,nora? (how many sessions,fees,etc)..i was thinking to take course kat TMC coz
closer to my house n program sounds gd but timing tak bagus.

if i remember correctly it was abt $300 plus for 8 sessions (1.5hr each)
they teach u the breathing techniques which u must practice at home or wont remember when the time comes and also stretching exercises to realieve the common aches and pains during pregnancy...but the content of the course conducted by tmc and mt e may differ i guess.
u must bring a partner, if hb cannot, then some ladies actually brought their mom.

Dr Zainal is a peadiatrician practicing in punggol plaza and me and hb jc mate. so he's our pead la, he writes for berita harian too on wednesdays i think.

Hehehe..nanti baru boleh update pasal ada sebab2 tertentu.. Nanti bila dah put on my multiply I annouce to u all..
I also attended the antenatal classes at TMC when I was abt 7.5 mth preggie. I dun remember as being as ex as 300 lehhh..maybe bcos if deliver at TMC, is cheaper. Furthermore, I also joined the First Born Incentive dpt 10 or 20% disc.
When I had my csect, I was under GA so my hb could come in with me and videod everything.Nanti kalau blh, I put up in my multiply but not today lah. Kena edit. I'm lower down numbed. So when my baby ditarik keluar, my gynae showed me my baby yg tgh sedap tidur!
Bila kena cleaned up and dicucuk sana sini baru nangis but only for awhile. Maklumlah belum ready to come out so sedpa je dia tidur... After my hb azakan dia, I get to hold her for abt 5 mins then they brought her to weigh and everything while my gynae and the anaesthetist bual2 sambil close me up.
Gosh! The topic they talk abt!! U should have heard.. pasal holiday, makan, anak dorang...etc..
Tapi lepas GA tu I muntah mcm merlion. Apparently it's part of the anaesthesia. Back to the ward, I conked out for a good 2 hrs. Just in time they wheeled in my baby only for few mins cos it was time to feed her and then dgr2 dia turned blue pasal kesejukan so tak jumpa dia sampai mlm tu dia sesak nafas so masuk NICU for 3 days.
I had to extend me stay to 5 days. I'm glad I did cos it would be difficult for me to walk up and down at home. Furthermore, my bb would still b in hospital. Luckily she could be discharged the day after I left hospital.
Wah! Panjang my story hari ni...

my girl now comin to 3, i had a very smooth labor for my girl..ikut buku.. waterbag burst.. then contractions then the next thing you know, dia dah keluar...
unlike my 2nd one, maybe b'cos mine was induced labor, then cuba tahan sakit sampai almost 12 jam pakai gas sampai dah tak leh nak amik nafas, gynae suruh take epi sebab after 12 hours pun masih lum dilate,
then after epi my blood pressure went down, dah kena baring senget ke tepi, after tat bb heartbeat pulak drop.
gynae kasi oxygen, after another hour pun takde changes, my blood pressure stabilise but bb heartbeat very bad...
next thing i know i kena sign consent form for the emergency c-sect....
gynae say bb heartbeat is really not good and takut anything bad happen ...
nak tak nak kena agree.. I was on all kinds of bius sampai tak sedar pun.. hubby pun tak leh ikut..very upset..
bila sedar i was in the recovery ward, anak tak tau ke mana hubby kat mana ....juz cry and cry and cry...
only when they wheel me into the ward baru I nampak my hubby, baby only much later..
lepas tu sakit perut macam nak giler...i think tats y i tak rasa the bond with my son immediately, unlike my girl after dia keluar je straight into my arms and latch on....

hottiemama,
i had to have an emergency c-sect also, because after more than 12hrs in labour, still no progress, i was only 4cm dilated and bb's head did not even engage hrs aft gynae burst my waterbag.
since it was emergency c-sect, it had to be general anasthesia and hubby can't go in w/ me, so he had to wait outside.
aft they delivered my dd, they brought her out immed to my hubby, who got to carry her and take her pics, and my mum also got to carry her. my MIL, 2 of hubby's aunts and 1 of his cousins were also there so they all got to see my dd 1st.
my dd was born at 4pm, then i only sedar ard 7pm+ aft they brought me to my rm. needless to say i was groggy and in pain, but i was never nauseous from the anasthesia lah.
abt 30mins aft i sedar in my rm, hubby went downstairs to have coffee with my parents, so i was in the rm alone to rest. then it was at this time that the nurse wheeled my dd in to let me see her. it was my 1st time seeing her.
i was in so much pain and couldn't move or get up at all. i wanted so desperately to take her out of the bassinet to carry her, but couldn't, so decided to call hubby to ask him to come up straightaway, but then i realise he didn't bring his HP down with him! so no choice for the next 20mins or so i could only look at my dd from my bed in her bassinet lying there quietly w/ her eyes open! so sad right?!
by the time hubby came back the nurse had already taken my dd back to the nursery. so i told him what happened, then her went to the nursery to ask the nurse to bring my dd back so that i could hold her.
i stayed at the hospital for 4 days, and because my c-sect recovery was quite painful, i was not able to carry my dd as much as i would want to. but because she was on partial BF, the nurse would bring her to me every 3 hrs to be breastfed.
i do admit that during the 1st two days in the hospital, i did not feel a strong bond with her yet, and i was filled with so much guilt over the fact that she was taken care of by the nurses in the nursery almost all day instead of by me. i felt like i was not doing my duty as her mom, as if i was abandoning her.
i remember feeling so sad over this, esp when i kept thinking that she was in my womb for 9mths and all she knows and is familiar with is me, my voice, my heartbeat, etc. and then now she is left all alone in some brightly lit and cold nursery w/ ppl she is unfamiliar with and in a strange environment, etc. i can still remember i was crying when i was telling hubby this in the hospital rm. alamak, now when i think back, i was so melodramatic! haha!
luckily i was able to tell hubby what i was feeling at that moment, so he made sure that every chance we got, he would go to the nursery and bring our dd over to my rm so that she could be there w/ us. only at night ard 9pm then he would send her back to the nursery and the nurse would return her back to my rm at 9am the next morning.
but i have to say when we got home things got better, cause it was then that i could finally really bond with her, and hold and carry her as much as i wanted to.

and Sharena if you are what we are speculating the great new is... CONGRATS!!
nora, my son also go to Dr Zainal but he's not longer @ Punggol Plz. He's with Healthway @ Hougang Mall now.. never knew the he got a column in BH?? He looks young & never gives me the confident at 1st that he can treat my son ailment but alhamdullilaa, my son ngam with his treatment..
hottiemama, when I had my 1st born daughter. I too cam can't accept/bond with her. She looks like alien. Darn ugly to be coming out from me....
It doesn't help also that my hubby after I gave birth got to be away. My daughter also never co-operate, refuse to sleep & keep on wailing but she's a breeze now to care for
...
Junaine (girlnani), my hubby is also the one yg tak kasi sunnatkan my son when he's a week old.... For my girl, I did do the sunat procedure but cant recall where ...
doremon, how's you HK trip? Managed to find halal food?

nora, could be laa.. he's on the petite siee.. that's why maybe he specialised in bb care so that he won't be dwarfed if he is to treat adult.. hehehe... but his kids looks all so grown up... ard 10plus gitu kan... coz bump into him at IKEA with his kids (I think is his laa)
most of the mumies here seeem to undergo C-sect.. By choice or what? Coz my friend opt for C-sect coz wants a nice number for her kids b'day... alhamdulliaa got my kids naturally but with epidural of coz... (play cheat.. keukeukue..) But I've got a very very bad experience with epidural during my 2nd birth... Due to excessive water in my bod, the doc that administered the epidural really did a crap job. till the whole of my back got punctured mark & blue black. no need to say that my bed was soaked with blood that terpancut-pancut keluar... imagine I cried tersedu-sedu beyond control due to the process... very the pain/torturing leh totally diff frm my 1st experience .... some more that doc takder compassion langsung keep asking a very swollen belly pregnant women to curl & grap our knee up...

Hi RMS, hv not booked HK trip yet. However, going to Seoul end of this month (company's incentive trip).
nora,
hahaha!! my story-telling skills quite good eh?
sally,
eh no need to be sad lah. actually when i think back, it wasn't a sad or bad experience at all.
i think it's very normal for a new mom to feel overwhelmed, alienated and not have an immed bond with their NB baby the 1st few days. i think the media, etc (books, movies, tv shows) have just over-hyped the whole thing, and somehow made it seem that a mother and her NB baby WILL bond automatically and immediately aft the birth, and that if you don't feel this bond, it's just not natural and somehow you've failed as a mom.
rms,
i did not opt for c-sect. i opted for natural birth. but aft being in labour for too long and with no progress, my gynae made the decision to go for emergency c-sect because he said me and baby starting to get fatigued already, and if we carry on trying to have a natural birth, by the time my bb is ready to be born, i may be too fatigued and weak to push.
actually, i dah agak that i will end up delivering via c-sect, cause my bb's head never engaged at all, which is quite rare. gynae said it was probably due to the fact that my pelvis small and bb's head too big. so until today the running joke with my hubby is that my dd inheritated her big head from him and his side of the family lah! haha!
you know, in the end my hospital bill was a little high, because i had to pay for most of the charges for delivery ward for natural birth (since i went thru all those procedures), and on top of that had to pay for charges for emergency c-sect. haiz...luckily hubby's medisave covered most of the costs, in the end we paid $1K cash. i told hubby next time round i may just opt for elective c-sect lah. that is, IF there is a next time. kekeke...
