hi garfield2411,
u changing gynae as u are not comfortable with the current one?

just to share that i don't like my gynae at all too. however since i already paid for his package, i will continue with him.
my gynae is super sacratics, impatient and uses backdated machine that does not give clear scan and printout. i stick to him due to convenience only.

The gynae almost missed ordering first trimester test. Which gynae, so that other mummies can avoid him/her :)

Hi I went in msia to buy ammum milk..gt mango flavour too!

Yes, ammum is nice. got strawberry, original and chocolate.
I am not taking pills or any additional pills just ammum milk. Which I find it better because big capsules and pills scare me away. LOL!!

Hi garfield2411,

Yup, if you are not comfortable or have doubts about your gynea, it is better to change.

I am going to Dr. Yvonne Chan at Thomson Medical.
Chose her cos she got good "sewing" skills.

Hi all,

Hmmm... heard from my friends that the hospital will ask you which pediatrician your bb will go to.
Cos bb born 7 days need do checkup.

SBCCC @ tiong bahru (Jalan Membina) Dr Wong for me =)

hi pelicanfly,
i'm first time mom to be too so am quite lost like u too.
however u can check out those checklist (can be found online) for things to buy. mom's side should be things needed during confinement and like breastfeed pump (if necessary). bb's area include bb clothes, diapers/nappies, cot/pen, pram, bathing stuff...
there's certainty lots to be done before bb come along!

hello mummies to be! sorry for the no updates as recently super busy, especially work! :(

taurusmom: i am giving birth at thomson, gynae under tmc direct, dr claudine tan. my friend just switch to thomson PD Dr Eugene Tan, i think he last time from amk sbcc and now go over to tmc. do u need to select your PD now? my gynae like so cool headed leh, didnt ask much stuffs

hellow pelicanfly! welcome u to join us :)

just to share what my friend told me, she say for preparations for newborn can get some items:
  • swaddles, some newborn clothes (they outgrow pretty quick)
  • cot/play pen, mattress, bumper set, bedsheets, pillow bloster, mat to prevent water leak into mattress
  • rocker, beansprout husk pillow
  • diaper change, cupboard, liquid powder
  • 1 to 2 brands of newborn diapers (1 pack each, not enough then buy again later, and in case not fit also)
  • sterilizer, washing liquid detergent, wash bottle brush
  • few brands of newborn bottles (in case baby dont like), pacifier
  • laundry detergent and softener, wet wipes (many many)
  • 2nd hand milk pump (cos first hand too expensive and not sure if can successfully bf or not, intital months to try direct latch as much as possible, then use breast pump to build supply, means can buy breast pump later stage too)
  • bath tub, bath towel, bath lotion
  • rocker, high chair

what else to add on? :D

And i just cleared my spare room to make for baby room. maybe end of this mth going ikea shopping for a comfy chair for breastfeeding and cupboard for baby clothes

and for diapers, my friend recommends merries and goon (korea) can buy online Qoo10. more asian fit. if baby more chubby type can use huggies. need to try around so now can start to get samples from these diapers suppliers liao
