hi boey... how old is your bb btw???
Just tot you might like to know.
Nepia diapers direct from supplier (they deliver) at $14 per pack if you buy a carton from them (4 packs/carton for diapers and 6 packs/carton for pull-ups). Until 31 Dec.
Call the Nepia supplier at 62262650. Unfortunately to get the price I mentioned, you have to fax or email the order, so they will have to email/fax you the order form first. Troublesome, but well, you save about $6-$8 per carton.

I never dare to go to Rivervale Mall when skies are threatening, like now!

Hi mummies, this thread is so lively
SK is indeed a fertile place leh kekekeke...
I got 1 qn can anyone answer me: comparing PetPet and NTUC which is of a better quality?
I used to swear by PetPet but when they change the diaper recently I realise that the material is now rough and tends to cut into my boy's skin- very heartache leh...
I heard some good comments of NTUC but just want a 2nd (or 3rd) opinion, anyone can share?

Just curious, so how does one usually calculate a early term baby's age? I know developmentally that one calculates the age from the EDD, but I guess that legally the age is counted from date of birth, eg, when he goes to childcare/nursery?
Qdee
Yah, Sengkang is a fertile town, almost to the point of children being a dime a dozen. Guess that's why so far, almost every time I go Compass Point (which is almost every day!), I will hear the Info Counter announcing that either a child is missing or a child is found but the parents are missing!
Pris
Nepia is okay, and considered cheaper than Pampers when it is on sale. It's quite absorbent, but it will drag downwards when it is full, but it won't leak, and it's quite comfortable-looking and soft.
Hope Jadon and family are doing well. Take care!

Hi Qdee,
Lately Jadon has become a bit cranky in special care nursery.... Even now the nurses are scared of his crying. He wants to be bottlefed but doc still wants him to be on tubefed. Tentatively ops will be next friday depending on his condition as well. He'll still need to have another blood transfussion (top up) before the ops. Heartpain being poke here and there.....
Hi Boey,
If Nepia compare to Drypers? Which are cheaper and better?
Hi Lauran,
Jadon will not be home until next year 2006... Hoping to be before cny. However hb and I will be staying indoors with Jadon as he can't go to crowded areas or visiting.
I have not open the mat yet. Busy running to KKH, washing his clothes and preparing his room. Is there smell of plastic? I have not get rid of the smell yet. Maybe have to open it up one of the days.
Hi Temple,
Have PM you on the nepia diaper. Contact me as I need some details before ordering. Hoping to save cost at the moment.

Sorry, dunno about Pet Pet or NTUC. Since I didn't get any samples from them, I didn't bother to try!
Me stay at 298.
Pris
Nepia seems more comfortable. We didn't test Drypers to the limit of absorbency with our samples, so can't tell if it really is that absorbent. The sticky tape on Drypers feels just like a normal scotch tape quality to me, so we think could be uncomfortable as it's so darn sticky. Nepia is cheaper only if it's on sale, otherwise I consider it in the expensive range.
Other mommies' comments, anyone?

Boey,
to me, i calculate his age from his birth date. I think those child care centre or pre-school will calculate based on his birth date and not EDD...
lauran,
just started about 3 days ago on rice cereal.... i mixed it into his milk for him to drink, once a day currently...

for those who has brought the play mat:
open up and air it for a few days for both side. wash with warm water with dettol...
RE: Diapers
personally, i have tried petpet, mamy poko, pampers, ntuc, nepia, drypers, huggies. prefer petpet then drypers because drypers too plastic and more expensive than petpet. prefer mamy poko than pampers because mamy poko can hold urine better as compared to pampers and pampers so much more expensive than mamy poko (don't know why my son wear pampers, always leak out).
Nepia is pretty good. can hold urine quite well (not as good as mamy poko), very soft and cheaper than mamy poko.
don't like huggies at all because it's high-cut...
Don't like NTUC at all because can't hold urine...

boey, 298 sounds very far from me. but then again compassvale also not very small place, kekeke.
temple, mine started only last week too. hubby wanted to delay feeding semi-solids until 6 months but suddenly last Mon he fed him a bottle of gerber! think he cannot tahen the "gian" look on my boy when he sees us eating food.
Pris, always been using PetPet 'cos I feel Drypers more expensive and the quality the same as PetPet.
But never used Nepia cos hubby is a staunch believer in Pampers and Mamy Poko.

lauran, what i was told is that to delay feeding semi-solid food as long as possible, this is not to stress their disgestive system till it's "better develop". after 6 or 7 months should be good...
temple, that was my husband's sentiments too. But I think my boy is getting impatient- every time he sees us eating something he will get all excited and even roll his eyes. hehehe, a really "gian look".
So hubby started giving some food to satisfy him but so far so good, hopefully he won't be as picky as his brother.
Helen, PetPet had a different packaging up until early September. I feel that the quality then was much better, the overall material was softer especially the tape.
After they changed to the current packaging the tape is harder and tends to cut my boy, last time never had this problem at all.
But generally considering its price, it is still value-for-money.

Lauran & Helen,
So PetPEt is cheaper than Dryers? What is the range compare? I did not have the time to shop in NTUC lately. So can advise me which is the cheapest and good diaper? Nepia? Petpet? Dryers? Anybody have any idea on each individual price?
Hi Helen,
Jadon is currently weighs 2.1kg!! The other day when he's crying, my hb and I saw the bulging on the hernie area. The intestine was going in and out of the loose area. So scary...... No wonder doc said must go for ops. I shall update his condition so that you can keep Jadon in your prayers. Thanks.

Helen, just saw my boy's tummy turning red due to the tape cutting him again... was at NTUC just now had a chance to feel the texture of the NTUC brand- not bad leh... I will give it a try, let you know after I have tried the pack.

Doesn't seem very fair for premmies. The parents will probably have to give a fair bit of support for the child when they enter school then.

Poor Jadon, so Jadon has an area in his tummy area that needs an op? What needs to be done?
Just asking...you might want to consider buying insurance for Jadon? There are some threads covering this topic, I believe. Try doing a search?

boey...
my guess is after they reach the age of about 2 - 3 years old.... they will have about the same learning ability... but i realise that pre-mature babies tend to be slower during the 1st to 2nd year of growing up...

boey, 201 is far away from Compassvale LTR, in fact I am one of the nearest to the Buangkok MRT.
I am really excited that they are finally opening the station on 15 Jan! But then again I dun think I would be using that station so soon- I always thot its quite spooky.
Will wait until when more flats are up and there are more residents before i will go the the Buangkok station.
Helen, your husband also bought NTUC, so coincidental! Let's share comments after you have tested it... I used to be quite an advocator for PetPet but am quite disappointed now.

O i c, as you can tell, I tend to get lost easily!
Guess when people start using Buangkok station, the 'qi' of that place will improve. Guess it's partly the quiet around that place that makes you uneasy. In the meantime, you've been using the Sengkang station?

Boey, haven't been using the SK MRT very much 'cos the NE line doesn't go to the places I frequent- Yishun (my MIL place) or Thomson Rd (my work place).
So my husband has to chauffeur us around all the time. On top of that we have 2 boys (2 yrs+ & 5 months) so taking the MRT will be quite an event, with all the barangs and managing the boys....
Joleena, I felt that the new packaging tends to cut my boy's tummy now, the old packaging didn't give me this problem, that's way I am looking out to try other brands now.
Do you have such problems?
I heard NTUC brand better now cos new packaging so I possibly will give it a try.
