Actually my hubby dun intend to get any playpen, cot or sarong. He said let bb slp with mi when born till she can slp alone (he slp on the floor with thin mattress.) Bcoz his back gt prob and also due to his job tat y i insist buy any of those.

Also heard that if bb slp with us will regonise our smell den next time difficult to let nanny or anyone take care? izzit TRUE?
Actually it all depends on individual bb~ Sum ppl r ok wif anyone while sum r nt~ BUT for sure they can recognize their mummy's smell~

Slp wif u can b gd n bad~ Gd as in the bb will feel secure wif mummy ard but bad is tat it will bcome a habit tat he wan to slp wif u only~ If nxt time u wan ur hubby help take care of bb so he slp wif bb which the bb might nt wan it bcoz bb is used to slp wif ya alrdy~

ya can use herbs but it better to bath after 2 week and bath with herbs. This is wat my ah ma, mum & mil said....

she say wear sleeveless coz more "liang"..
like that = direct contact of air??
i dont know what she thinking also..
then she say die die 1 WHOLE MONTH cannot bath..
only can wipe body..
i really wanna faint..
luckily 1 of my friend did her confinement and said that she is allowed to bath once she came back from hospital..
just that need to boil the herbs..
then hair she can wash after 12/14th days..
hope my hubby will debate with his mum..
if not i will die of stinkiness~ OMG:elvis:

Hi Huiyin, went for check up last night, gynane said would be at least 1-2 week early, hence new EDD is mid May (was hoping for early Jun).

Package with gyane is the 4 bedded @ Thomson, but will be upgraded to 2 bed room.

I'm going to cater for confinement food and sourcing some website now for comparison.

Also, can any one share where to buy those herbs for bathing ? Normal chinese medical hall shop got sell ? What is it call ?

i also din engage any CL, my mil will help me

but will she help u look after bb in the nite time?

My mum will come in the morning till evening help me look after bb so i can rest in the morning. mil will also look after lah but scare she cant cope tat y i look after in the nite (i am a owl in the nite).

juz to let u noe tat if no one look after bb while confinement, u will be very tire like my cousin she fell ill during confinement...

so better discuss with ur hubby. u need to take more rest during confinement...

prob is we dun haf the time to go hospital tour~ I really love my last stay at mt a but i guess got no choice as mt a is a catholic hospital so they dun allow ligation or abortion to b done there :embarrassed:

oic... the labour ward is 2nd floor... the rest of room is located at storey 3-6 with ( every storey have their own nursery). But bow they gt more 4 bedded rm le as they renovate and will finish renovation in March. Each storey will have abt 10 single bedded rm, 4-5 2bedded rm & about 3-4 4bedded rm... so chances of auto-upgrade is less now... FYI, only the main door next to delifrance open 24 hr, the rest of the side door will close at 10p.m open next morning 7a.m (if i din rem wrong, i went last fri) they also have super deluxe and executive room which situated at 6th floor... if weekday cant go, go on sat lor @ 11a.m...
