Hi Ior3tTa
Thank you for the information. Althought is S$6k, but not enought to last till primary education. Based on my friend's feedback, if we put our kids to play group class, and K1&K2. These 3 yrs will make you spend all the bonus amount(S$6k bonus +S$6k top up your own). Education fee is not cheap!!
Yeh, definitely not sufficient. I agree. Haha..

Hi all mumies

Will you cut your hair short before your edd?
I have long hair, I won't cut. Cos if we are too hot. At least can just bun it up. If short hair, still have to maintain like monthly trims, otherwise we will look like auntie plus the lack of sleep. Haha

Was told that it's dried breastmilk. So don't worry about that, also for now when taking a shower just rinse with water, no need to soap the nipple area. Not too sure about the lumps, maybe other mommies have an idea.

Hi Ryca
For the small lump and your nipple issue, is good to check with your gynae. Since gynae has already charge you consultation fee. Please call your gynae for advice.

Hi all mumies

Yes is true, long hair no need to trim monthly. But, during confinement period, we can not wash our hair...scary!! I'm still thinking whether i should cut my hair to bob style or boy cut style. Right now, my hair is long. My mom said if i not cut my hair, you will sweat a lot during confinement due to eat a lot of hot food (confinement food) :(

I also have a small lump under my armpit. I was told that it is breast tissue and is not of a concern. Probably you can check with your gynae if you are still worried about it.

Hi Ryca,

yah, better to check with your gynae.

Could be breastmilk starting to accumulate and hence you get the white crust etc..
try massaging with downward stroke from the armpit to the nipples to guide the "milk" out from the lymph around there.. during shower..

Baby bonus is not the dollar-for- dollar match. It is the one where they distribute in trenches. This is effective from 26 aug 2012. Theres no change for the dollar for dollar cdca account (the one with ocbc)..

the one week paternity leave will only be implemented in may 2013. Civil service starts 01 jan. for those fathers working with gov, can get :) gov encrg companies to start giving too. So I think can check with coy's HR if they will follow gov. Lets hope all companies follow!
