hi all
finally, my big project is over and i can find time to log on
btw, i would like to know where can i buy all bb stuff in one store? my sis told me John Little, but the one along Orchard road has very limited items leh. Also, since most new mummy use breast pump, which brand is good huh? should i get the manual of the electrical one? thanks
bliss - ur complains on ur CL is certainly valid. but i guess most of them are like that cos that's the way they live/behave in their hometown. am glad that ur nightmare has past... u sounded stressed, take it easy ya

I am now in my week 26. Have gained about 7kg so far...but family says too little for twins. Stressed man... Now must eat and eat.My gynae says it is normal to have discharge as long as no itch, smell or blood.I heard that its best not to sit cross legged. Initially i felt more comfortable crossing leg. Now, whenever i cross leg, can feel bb moving near tummy... so, scared will restrict movement, so dare not cross liao

hi bee,
For me, I prefer Medela.
I bought Medela Swing (electrical, lazy to pump using manual cos my fren said it is tiring to pump manual).
For me that time i bought bb stuff during Takasimaya Baby Fair and that time got additional 10% using DBS card. But some items like breast pump, i prefer buy at US cos it is cheaper buy there.

Lina - thanks, hmm... i have not decided if i want to extend my maternity (no pa leave) to take care of baby for another half a year. my good friend has a manual one which she no longer needs it. so, i wonder if that is good enough or should i still get a electrical one... trying to spend minimum cos i realised there are a lot of things to buy actually

Hi all,
Am on MC today, finally got time to log in to this thread. Good to see all the familiar names here.
Hi ltjabi,
You're like me, feeling hungry all the time. I was told to eat complex carbohydrates like wholemeal bread and glutinous rice which is more difficult to digest so that you dun feel hungry. Good to eat meat like fish & chicken which contains proteins rather than just plain carbohydrates like biscuits. Hope it helps.
Hi Bee,
If you're serious about breastfeeding, it is good to invest in a good electrical pump. I used Ameda Dual pump for my 1st kid, recommended by my sister who breastfed for almost 2 yrs and also bought an Avent Manual pump for outside use. I bought most of my baby items at Robinsons during 20% sale. Usually, National day in Aug most dept stores will have storewide 20%.

hi bee,
since your friend pass you the manual one, can try out first. Some baby can latch on very well, no need to pump at all. It will be good to watch baby grow up and form the close bonding. So if no pay leave extension is an option, do consider.
hi ltjabi,
if really no choice but to buy after baby born, then you could get your hubby to join membership, eg. kiddy palace. still can get some discount and all the baby items are well equipped at same place. Prepare hubby with a list of the specific items and code number so that he can pass to the staff to buy together during your hospital stay or confinement. Right now you can start looking at the items that you need, check out price and product code to make the list. As for daily necessity such as milk powder, diaper, wipes, etc, he could make a trip to supermarket or even the pharmacy/shops at hospital.

me and hubby were just wondering the other day if only there are some "standard packages" for new born baby out there for new mummy/daddy tobuy off the shelf, then it would save us the trouble of thinking what we need to buy... it would be nicer if they have standard packages for new born, then maybe 3 months old, 6 months old and 1 year old.... haha

hi ltjabi and bee,
agree with juju, kiddy palace will be better place. And the things are organized properly and you can shop in comfort. the hypermart and baby kingdom will be quite cramp space to shop so only go there if you have a product code and need to compare the pricing there.

Not that i demand it but so unfair treatment..i also dun dare to take bottled kind coz of chemical..some ladies take it early, some say 2nd trimester then can take, i supposed its up to individial ba. Before you are due for scans, you eat a bit first. Then if scan ok, eat more gulps of bird nest lor..this what i normally do to test if i am suitable to eat any food...hahah, psychological ba.

If your normal gynae is from the same hospital/centre, usually your medical report from IVF centre will be sent to the gynae for ref. You can also check with the IVF centre on the arrangement. But, if your normal gynae is from another hospital/centre, I would think you will need to ask your IVF doc to write down the medication you need so that you can pass it to your gynae.

hi ltjabi,
actually no rush for the stroller, can wait till baby a few months old then you decide what brand to get. That time can let baby try on the different strollers before deciding.
hi 76,
breastpump will be useful when you need to return to work. Get a good quality one if you need to pump at workplace. But you may like to get nipple cream and disposable breast pads first as there will be some milk leakage and dryness of nipple when baby latch on.
