I also intend to shower before gg to hospital, but once pop le, I will bath using the herbs and not plain water ba...
Cupcakemum, I starting planning already. Mainly cos I'm very free at work lol... But also nothing much to plan cos I will be doing it at home, just shortlisted the caterer and supplier for decor, choose my decorations and guestlist, that's all.Hi tannie.. Have u started planning your baby's first month celebration already? If so, that's really fast!
I couldn't find dry shampoo anywhere. Went to pharmacy and they told me nowadays people don't use dry one, they use mousse shampoo. So I bought a bottle already. I guess it will be less itchy than powder shampoo.
U mean there's dry bath too??? Didn't know that!
Esoterice mummy... Can share which r ur short list caterer? Cuz I'm also researching, kinda think I may try neo catering. Wat u think? Cake wise intend to order those cup cake kind but can't find any nice ones yet.Cupcakemum, I starting planning already. Mainly cos I'm very free at work lol...

milkshake, mine is pretty consistent, gained around 100gm per week. means yours actually gain more wor.. hmmm but my doc nvr say anything.. hmmFrom 30w-32w baby only gain 240g. When I was 28w - 30w, baby gained ard 350g. So this 2 weeks is less.
As for confinement, I don't believe in absolutely no fan or no aircon. Its really up to you. You can on the fan, but make it circulate so that the air in the room can circulate. It is more healthy this way too. You do not want to suffer heat stroke also haha.. As for aircon, I know myself, I will not on it because, I can get running nose from aircon that is too cold.
I will bath and wash hair too, cos of hygenie purpose. But will use the herb water and blow dry my hair quickly before stepping outside.
As for food, I'll just leave it to my confinement lady who will cook for me. hehe.. That's all.. I'll just focus on resting and feeding baby...

I think I will be using Four Seasons, as my company and my mum's house warming both used them and the food is not bad. I was also thinking of neo catering at first, cos they have the new born package right? But I emailed them twice, no response.. =(Esoterice mummy... Can share which r ur short list caterer? Cuz I'm also researching, kinda think I may try neo catering. Wat u think? Cake wise intend to order those cup cake kind but can't find any nice ones yet.
As for cake, I will order from pine garden. And for colleagues and thse people who cannot attend, think I will order from sweetest moments. I have not tasted sweetest moments before, but many reviews say nice.. u may wan to try their cupcake see how?

Exactly same here.....So hot nowadays that I feel like taking off my shirt while outside in such unbearable weather.
I usually blast aircon and fan at night with no blanket. Poor hubby has to cover with blanket and is shivering.

I think baby shower can be later nowadays unlike the past traditional.
Sms should be alright. I didn't receive any baby shower invite card before.
Where do you all intend to hold the shower? At home, or hotel etc? I'm not inviting many friends but my home is not big enough to cater to the numbers of people. Headache, dunno where to hold it.

I am thinking to start planning as well. Cos once the baby is out, I think all the time will be spent taking care of her. So no time to look around.Cupcakemum, I starting planning already.

Can share which caterer have you shortlisted? I am thinking of Neo but I heard the portion is pretty small?
I was thinking of cupcake as well. But at the end I think I might just get some red eggs and ang ku kueh. Easier.Esoterice mummy... Can share which r ur short list caterer?

Cupcakes, I think quite ex per cup and usually rather sweet cos of the icing on top. I have seem alot of people either eat it halfway, or throw away the icing. Which I find kind of wasteful, considering the amount of $ you spend.
miniclarie, what I heard is that cannot do full month after the actual full month. Must do before the actual date. Dunno what's the reason, but most pp is do before actual date.
climsp, either FB or sms the invitation will do ba. But I did recd baby full month card before. But I think I will not, cos just inviting a few people, relatives and close friends, so dun need to print card ba..
Rukia, ya I had same thoughts as u. Cupcakes seems to look nice only, taste may be too sweet. I prefer to go for the traditional items though. hehe

Will you all invite all your colleagues? I thought of inviting those I am close to cos they have been quite concerned about me and kept asking me about my pregnancy and when I am giving birth. But I think it will be alittle embrassing if the rest finds out that I didnt invite them.

I intend to hold the baby shower at my house. If your place is not big enough, you might want to consider renting those multipurpose area below your flat, unless of course if you prefer a hotel, that is another alternative.I think baby shower can be later nowadays unlike the past traditional.

Ya those nice looking cupcakes are usually loaded with alot of sugar. Unless you all are looking at those plain cupcakes or muffins, I tried this ChocnSpice before. It tastes quite nice. But no delivery have to self collect, that is a problem.miniclarie, what I heard is that cannot do full month after the actual full month. Must do before the actual date.

Oh ang gu kueh n red egg is a pretty good idea, so just boil red egg n buy ang gu kueh ourselves? Or order? Ps I nb attend baby shower before. Lol. Then for them to bring home? Ya actually I don't like sweet things too, cupcake is just for the look.I was thinking of cupcake as well. But at the end I think I might just get some red eggs and ang ku kueh. Easier.
