BF boobs - word of advice, need to wear bra for good support during the BF period. I, for one, found it too troublesome so most of the time went bra-less, and now, pay the price... a few of my friends said so too... I remember milk was dripping all over the place (yes, milk flow was good) and my hubby was like "hey, wear your bra!", but I hated having to take off my bra every 2-3 hours to pump and then wear back, and then take off, and then wear back...So my shirt was always with milk stains and the floor always with milk stains too! Haha! But it did get better after the first few months, haha! With the 2nd pregnancy leakage wasn't as bad, and I continued to go bra-less most of the time, sag liao, so no way back, haha!

I agree about being flat after bf. I wasn't very well endowned to begin with and the nightmare came after no.2 totally flat now. Sad man! With no.3, think nothing left already. Got natural way to enlarge them? Heehee...

The milk ducts is normally caused when the bb is not latched properly, or when milk is not completely emptied.

I had underwired bras thru out my prenancy. During the first two months, I had non-wired ones as I read/was told, that wired ones would affect the milk ducts and blah. But after 2 months, I buay ta han liao. I would think of a way to deal with the blocked ducts when they blocked la, I couldn't risk my breast friends! So wired bras came back.
In case you are wondering - No, the wires didn't cause me blocked ducts. Business as usual!

Mums, it was nice meeting and chatting with some of you at the playground. Should do this more often, it's a good way to pass time, haha! With the hols coming up, can have the gathering again. Dor, was it you who mentioned about arranging one for next week? One of these days can have you gals come over to my place too, have a look at my collection of chinese herbs! Haha!
Kin, and other mums with older kids on hol, what are your plans for the hol? Safra TPY has some interesting science days, interested? However, if there aren't enough numbers they'll call off the program...and it has happened to me quite a number of times. The other place is Thomson Plaza Crestar.

Such a talent!
What kinds of books do you buy from her?
My girl also learnt from sound phonics from Montessori.
But she does not know about phonics blending yet.
Jfoo
Unfortunately did not manage to meet you and the rest of the mummies.
Brought my girl to the Blk 28 Lor 6 sand playground instead, around 630pm.
Have you been there b4?

Mummies, mummies, anyone still ordering Birks? Some new designs in the bargain galore!! Managed to find two pairs for my kids!! Wanna "tumpang" if any mummies here still buying. Otherwise will get the leather Birks for myself and make up the amount for free shipping 
The last round when Orange ordered there weren't any suitable ones for my kids so today went to Raffles City Birk store and bought for them (chose the ones that were on 20%), came back and decided to check out the website again and found these new designs and new stock added!!
Kin, thanks for the info, looks interesting. Was gonna send her to Eduplus at Safra, she tried that last year and enjoyed. But she saw that Tian Hsia has sushi making so she wants that, haha!

I have decided to enrol my gal to Eduplus.
Btw, they will be moving to J8 as TPY Safra will be having their renovation, estimated completion in 2 yrs time.
Hopefully TPY Safra would have more facilities for members/public to enjoy.

Hey ivy,
I second precious's suggestion to get the MIM underwired removable bras...
I've got 3 of them and I removed the wires...And you can still wear them after you stop bf like a normal bra too. Just add in the wires!
Now that I"m so used to wearing wireless bra, it kinds of feel strange when I wear wired bras now..sigh..time to get used.

Dor, it's ok abt the writing. Mine now 3.5yo and still doesn't quite know how to write. Mommies how about your kids? I know some can write their names already. Was told not to worry as some juz take more time.
Precious and Jfoo, what programme are you sending ur kids? Is it some kind of holiday programme?
Jfoo, you wait for me can with the order? I see if I can bring my gal to fit size for birkies..thinking of getting one for her.

Dor, Fri evening I'm ok to meet up at Sensory. There are benches around but a short distance away from the play area. I'm ok with that.
Babe, I was gonna start my daughter off with Eduplus Chinese at some point and she has been there a couple of times for the hol one-off program which she thoroughly enjoyed. But now that they're moving to J8...hmmm...may have to reconsider. Anyway, for the time being, just gonna go for hol program, don't want to pack in too many things unless necessary. So will have to see how she copes with P1 in Pei Chun.
Talking about that...that means CMA, which is currently based in the same building as Eduplus, will be moving too. Argh!!! Haiya, "ma fan", hopefully won't be moving too far away. If still in TPY that would be so good.
Birks - yes, can wait for you. Smallest size for Birk I think is 24, for most designs.
No more mummies ordering Birks ah?

It is once a week chinese enrichment program instead.
For holiday program, I'm waiting for the details from Teddy Playhouse at Lor 7 Blk 18.
My girl had enjoyed their holiday program in June.
Dor
Do let me know if you come across any Crocs BP or any good buys in the shopping mall.
Have to get ready to buy new pair for her, pretty soon she won't be able to fit in her C8/9 size.

Crocs - Terminal 3 had a warehouse clearance, around $20 per pair. I saw the ad in the papers recently, but didn't pay attention to the dates.
Babe, Line's one of my all time fav for buffet. Tempura is heavenly, light, fluffy
Worth every cent paid. But I have to say, compared to when they first started as "Line", standard has dropped...so sad. I haven't been there for a year or so, let me know what you think.

They don't have a website.
Will post the details here, once I receive the leaflet.
Btw, they do have weekly phonics lessons, every Thur at 3.30pm.

dolphingal,
the pay here working as a miad is higher than working blue collar job in philippines. in your case, not surprised that she doesnt know how to do housework since she has a maid back home but really funny to hear.
ivy,
small amount wont affect much anyway the cake is eaten already.
