Kak Boo!!!
Hw r u? ku mencari kini baru ku temui...ok tak?sihat tak? hero2 mcm mane?

WonderWomen n mademoiselle..welcome aboard!!
Wonderwoman congrats on the new edition? Lama tunngu ke?hw long tu? mesti excited kan..I can truly understand tht..I agree with mademoiselle as not to put baby on the same bed as u..I made tht mistake n it was so difficult to transfer him to his own!! I thot initially lepas beranak kan malas la nak bangun baring bangun baring so to be be able to sleep longer at nite, I put him next to me..So now!!! pandan muka ku..dia melekat bawa armpit mama nye...What to do..But Im very persistant in training him to sleep on his own..ok lah 1st nite sekejap aje cari balik mama..2nd nite not to bad..Now dah 2 wks, a success!!
Abt the tukang urut, my aunt tinggal kat CCK is a tukang urut..if u nak I can ask her to give u call or u can call her, whcever is convenient 4 u..juz let me knw..so for now juz take care of ur health..
 


wonderwoman,
you can use a playpen for you bb to sleep in at your home. but if possible buy a better quality mattress for the playpen, cause i find the ones that come with playpens are of very inferior quality, so not too good for bb's back and neck. you want them to be comfortable and have restful sleep - good for you also. my advice is don't let bb sleep with you in bed - dangerous and also later on got probs trying to get them to move to their own beds. my dd slept in her own cot in her own room from Day 1. so i never had probs with her sleeping on her own. now dah 21mths old she still sleeps in her own room, but on a queen size mattress on the floor lah, cause she outgrew her cot at 12mths old!

btw, i also have 2 of everything! cause my dd used to stay over at my mum's place some weekends since she was a bb, so we just put duplicates of everything at my mum's place also. convenient that way, so no need to bring anything if we wanna go over there.
 
pumpkin,
Thanx, actually i belum check pun, but i knowlah dah miss the mensus kan macam dah lama gitu so should be pregnantlah...

wonderwoman,
i agree with all the mummies kat sini, if possible jangan let ur bb sleep with you cos nanti melekat susah... it will not be a waste of money if you put it to practise as make sure u let ur bb sleep in their own cot from the beginning...i did tat since my girl balik from hospital....alot of people say cot is waste of $$. Actually its not. if you dun let ur bb sleep on their own from early stage and then bila dah besar tak nak tidur sendiri then you start to say its a waste of $$ b'cos anak tak nak tidur sendiri.. bukan anak tak nak tidur sendiri, they are not use to it....so u have to start from young.....my girl now is 2 yr 3 mths and she's still sleeping in her cot and i can sleep better sometimes later...

like wat Lani say, if u intend to put ur bb @ your mum's, it's better to have two of everything so tak leceh for you nak bring so many things everytime nak hantar anak pi rumah mak...hth.
 
hi shermin,
i am OK. Thanks. My mum has just passed away actually. So my family and I are trying to pick up the pieces - slowly but surely. My hero and heroine are great. Thanks.

Hi Wonderwoman,
Just thought I'd introduce you to tukang urut after bersalin. There's one at Clementi, if you are keen. She's good.

And hi to all the all other mums.

Kak Boo
Im sorry to hear abt ur mum. Hope u r fine n be strong ok..Yg pergi tetap pergi semoga rohnya dicucuri rahmat insyaallah, amin.
U take care.
 
I'm not really new here...just an intro..I'm WOHM with dd 27mths and dd 4mths. I seldom join the forum cos' not easy to read the thread as in other baby forum.

Voguemama yup i kno abt the pertapis @ yew tee...it's just behind my mums blk...but ended up sending to IYAD CCK tis jan 07. Register her when she was 18mths..n the wating list r really long. My cousin daug is in Little Dolphin...she said it's good.

Bettybad....me nak kepo sikit r u the same betty as is guapunya.com...cos i also kno she's a teacher too...
 
Shermin

I sent my daughter to I CAN READ when she was 5. She was still unable to read at that age. I was worry if by P1 she still unable to read and poor her be left behind. My hubby never like me enrolling her to any academic classes coz he said later she stress. Let her enjoy her childhood. But after 3mths at I CAN READ, she is able to read fluently to my & hubby delight. But got to pull her out of the class when she went to P1 coz clashed with her timetable... All the teachers at I CAN READ are 'ang moh lang' so my daughther benefit and speak English fluently with proper pronunciation.. I have to say $$ worth spending.
 
Hi Mommies

Thanks for your advise..appreciate it alot.

Shermin
FYI, me dah kawin for almost 5 years. My sis in law yng kawin few months after me pon dah 2 orang anak dia. Sedih jugak tiap kali mengharap sklai takde..bila nie 'tersangkut' terus mcm tak percaya gitu.

Boo (Eleven)
Sorry to hear about your mom. Masa my granny pass away I was so greatly sad nie tah lagi our mom. Semoga roh nya di cucuri rahmat yng esa.

Shermin/Boo (Eleven)

Kepada sesapa yg tanye abt the gym class tu, tak tgk ke my earlier post. I ckp i ru register Adam utk class next yr. Tak tau bagus ke tak. Setakat buang masa. hahahaha... Dari Adam dok rmh tak buat apape. Anyway, nie webby dia lagi: www.edufarm.com.sg

So far i heard both negative and positive feedback. Jadi cn oni comment nxt yr wen he start his class. Yang bestnye, most of the classes are found in the neighbourhood. So i tak yah buang masa travel jauh2 patt town.
 
Eh, i nk rekomen korang this bookshop pat Bras Basah la.Buku dia murah2! I suka pi situ beli buku untk Adam. Dia pat tgkt 3 tak salah. Sama level as Popular. Pat hujung skali. Nama kedai dia Children's Book Store. Kalo ada sesape nk pegi, ask me oso la.

Vougemama

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. It's been tough but again..that's life. So unpredictable.

Wonderwoman..
I need to find the contact details cos it's been almost 3 yrs since. Anyway, the shop (Ummi Tone) is at Clementi Ave 2.

Hi RMS,
May I know which I Can Read outlet you send your child to? And do the lessons include learning Mandarin? How long is each lesson? What do they do for each lesson? Sorry to ask so many questions and TIA too.

Btw, just want to let the mummies here know that I nak let go baju-baju budak (ada RL striped tee pun) and toys at discounted price pasal I nak clear stock. So, kalau anyone keen, boleh pm me lah.

Hi vogue, no prob. Good thing must share.
happy.gif


Vogue, u kalo nk cut waiting list u ask sesape tu rekomen ar. Cos dat time my sis nk enrol anak dia pun tungu lame. Then she ask someone to rekomen within a week da dapat place. My nephew suka Iyad. Tapi now da ada maid, he's attending Raudhah instead. and according to my sis, Iyad pun better dari Hijrah. No wonder dorang spend a lot of $ on advertising. Fedback i got from other parents oso nt v +ve.
 
i agree with mixedUP...so far IYAD tak der adverd....heard abt -ve feedback @hijrah too..that'a y me send her to IYAD...
 
Hi all. Assalamualaikum.
Thought I'd join in this interesting sharing about pre-schools. IYAD is indeed great. Wanted to put my girl in but since I don't need a childcare after taking a helper, she's now in PPIS (Bukit Batok) which is also an excellent place cos it balances both ukhrawi and duniawai at the same time. My 2.5 yr-old boy will also join his sis there next year for pre-nursery.
happy.gif
 
yeah, i agree about iyad. unfortunately, i live too far away from iyad. one of my friends used to work there and she's really good. she's a degree holder from nus, speaks v good english, very religious, patient etc - but she has left now that she has her own children to care for.

for me, my childcare option come end of next year will be mercu @ woodlands. failing that, i'll consider the ones at yew tee. some of my friends' children are there and my nephew is also there and they dont have anything negative to say about the place. i definitely will not go for those that engage in heavy advertising unless i'm very desperate.

kak boo, any pretty clothes in the 3-6months range? my daughter's 9 months old tapi dia punya kenit, aiyoooh.. she has only recently begun to outgrow the newborn clothes. or flashcards with real pictures (not the cartoonish ones) - i want to make my own flashcard tapi printer tengah meragam ah.
 
hayati,

hehehe tt means kena minta pertolongan you ah to recommend my girl in.. if only possible.. anyway glad pula ramai says gd thing abt Iyad.. cos the last time i gie register my hubby encounter an unpleasant incident with the teacher there.. i tak nampak ah..maybe he is overparanoid..

anyway Iyad seems a gd place after gd reviews.
 
Hi all,

Can i join u guys here? Biar i intro sket. I'm a mummy of a hyperactive, cheeky 10 mth old boy. Soon to be mother of another child. insya Allah, girl.

I saw de post on the urat lady @ clementi. I use her services often. Not bad. I asked abt post-natal urut b4 n she charges, kalau tak silap, $550 for 10 sessions plus all the ubat. I belum negotiate lagi. Mcm mahal gitu but I'm already comfy wif her. Hope she can give discount.

And i some qns. IYAD tu stands for what? It's a childcare is it? Whr is it situated? Enlighten me pls..
 
Vougemama ok nanti when i start her in jan i try recomend 4 u...but when u 1 2 enrol her???

Lizzie welcome on board ....
yup IYAD is a childcare at jurong west and cck pun ader....
 
thx ryatie!

anyone knows of any infant care centres around queenstown or clementi area or along the way? susah betol nak cari one that serves halal food and accepts below 18mths.
 
yati,

i dah pm RMS regarding the carrier...urrggghhh i terlambat ah... she dah sold dah...

hehe after hearing good reviews of Iyad of course nak masuk kan her as soon as possible... Thks yar for your help.. i really appreciate it. if tak dapat masuk then is ok lah..i just wait.
 
Salam,

ada siapa tahu the website or contact for the caterer doing tingkat lunch/dinner and get supply from hajah maimunah..TIA
 
Voguemama, there is such a thing? I thought selalu yang chinese jer ada this service. Kalau sesiapa ada contact, I pun nak jugak.
 
RMS, WINX CLUB vcd tu tak salah ada juat pat TS Video. Tak salah pernah nampak.

Vogue, u mean Hajah Maimunah ada provide tingkat service? Kalo ada contact I pun nak ar. hahahaa..
Masak utk 2 org makan je buang duit gas, letrik, air etc... Ada je aku nie! TIA!

Vogue, i pun ada carrie macam RMS, kaler blue tapi takde brand. U nak i can email the pics tu u.
 
MU
TS Video tu kat maner?

About the tingkat dinner, I used to have my tingkat dinner delivered by ZEEKAYS but don't know whether they exist anymore. They food some time ok but most of the time not ok.
I also know that Hajah Maimunah do tingkat dinner. Let me go back & find the paper cutting that I've cut out from the newspaper. Actuall there's a few non-muslim caterers doing tingkat dinner for muslim. Saw alot of the advert in the Straits Times. Now luckily my sis is willing to provide tingkat dinner for my whole family...
 
bettybad & mixed up,

adalah.. a few weeks back ada article kat berita minggu. before i get to hold on to that paper, my father dah jual kat karang guni.. so if ada sesiapa ada that article can know the hp and website ah.. oh this few groups of guys form a team to get supplies from hajjah maimunah ah to do tingkat.. the price if i am not wrong is $200 for 20 days..hehehe i paling favourite their food. hehehe memang penat seh balik rushing and nak cook..surrender babe...anyway this caterer sent food kol 7 to 7.30pm gitu so ok lah makanan still hot.

this caterer also do tingkat tau tapi tak pernah cuba. http://www.demansion.com.sg/

MU, i manage to get the seller selling the sling yg you ada to me at $10 at yahoo tapi nak pick up leceh ah..she stays at yew tee and balik malam.. so still pending. anyway how you feel when using the sling? gd tak? my neck penat angkat my 4 mths girl.. she dah 7.5kg..adui terpaksa tampal koyok...
 
Vogue, Berita Minggu bile tu? I pi my mom's place pi cari ar. hahahaha... Nanti dia kate pi rmh dia makan bayar dia sudah. $200 for 20 days okie pe. Same mcm makan pat luar. Tapi tak tau servings dia ok tak. Maklom la org rmh nie makan nasi macm giant!
happy.gif


Sling yg i pakai tu Moms in Mind. Okla. I like. Cos si Adam dari 2wks i gendong dia dlm sling smp skrg. Kalo carrier lain dia tak favourite ar. Kalo u refer to sling yg i nk jual tu, mcm RMX nye COMBI baby carrier, my boy langsung tak mau dok dlm. Ntah pasal, gaknye ada pin la cocok bontot dia. So mana2 i pakai sarong sling aje. Kalo tau pakai, neck tak sakit. Kena pandai adjust ar. Kadang2 i salah adjust balik tengkuk mcm nk retak.
10kg beb!!
happy.gif


RMS, TS video byk tmpt ada pe. Cosway pt, IMM, Lot 1. Tu je yg i ingat.
 
entah forget ah which date but might be in dec punya. hahah yr mum sure will ask you to pay her instead ah.. my mum says like that too..hehehe call me pemalas.. adui mana nak juggle with work and 2 babies and 1 big "baby", mana larat seh.

i ada MIM sling juga and also wearbabyhugz.. initially i pakai ok...lama2 tak ok.. been using sling for my eldest daughter juga..so far i am ok.. agaknya badan nie dah tua and penat ah.. hhmm seems like i hv to get twin stroller to accomodate both of them.
 
during ramadan, i ordered the tingkat service from hajah maimunah.

puas tau! tapi mahal sket dari the one provided by the chinese companies. i used to order from qzin.com.sg tapi my husband tak boleh telan makanan from them - too bland. kita kan lidah melayu. for qzin, portion for 1 is enough for both of us. for hjh maimunah, we need portion for 2.

anyway,this is the much needed info:

www.tigfoods.com
 
i saw de advert for de hjh maimunah tingkat svc in de papers too. i was so excited. thot i could get their svc.

sekali they onli cater to east n north jer.. kecundang seh...
 
Wah! takde service to CCK la.
happy.gif

I pi rumah mak I makan sudah! hahahahaha.....

Vogue, actually bukan kite nie malas la. Tapi masak untuk 2 org makan tak muai la.Lagipun, slalu i masak, hb yg cuci.Jadi dia rather kite makan luar. Dia kate makan luar lagi murah dari masak pat rmh! hahahaha.... Aku rasa dia ikot family dia la. Biasala cinone!!
 
RMS tat time the cd i saw metro cosway pt

mixedUP u tinggal CCK ? i kat teck y>

lizzified..i pun kecundang cos' i suker makan saner:-(

ryatie

thanks for the Winx Club DVD/CD info. Went to TS Video at Hong Kah during lunch but was told they don't carry...
kao_cry.gif
my dd realy wants that for her b'day tomorrow. Will get hubby to go drop by Metro Causeway laa..

MU
I agree with you. Cook for 2 tak muai. My hubby also would rather eat outside. More economical he says. But now, no worries, paid my sis to do the cooking so for the past 3 yrs my dapur tak berasap...
 
I also AGREE 100%. Cook for 2, not worth the effort. Of buying groceries, preparing, cookin, cleanin up. Abeh makan, ngap, 5 min abes. So dapor i pun jarang berasap. Esbok sentiasa kosong. selalunya, bila beli onions, garlic pat ntuc, pakainya seketul. yang lain jadi pokok. :-D

bettybad, i also ingatkan time confinemt bole order. hopefully by dat time, they can cater to more areas. i ni tercampak kat queenstown. jarang ade members kat sini.
 
i agree about cooking for 2.

a waste of effort betul. dah lah tu, i'm such an *expert* in cooking.. kekadang tu, kene tumis sambal 2 , 3 kali, baru menjadi.. dont ask me where the first few batches of sambal tumis ended up in.

tapi, one of my targets for my no-pay-leave is to cook at least 4 times a week. so, goodbye hajah maimunah.. (until my husband cant take it anymore, that is) ;)
 
ryatie, jalan teck y tu yg pat sheng siong eh?
hahahaha... tinggal je teck y tapi tk tau mane.
me pat teck y ave- sekampong la nie!
