caitlyn- yup.. thn u wil realise there r so many many things to buy! esp if start frm scratch. u managed to buy all ur furniture le? we lookin ard for sofa nw. the one tat mil passed v old liao, the leather color fadin...
 
ting - yupz.. we bot all e basic furniture le.. bot from cellini.. $5399 for sofa, coffee table, dining table + 6 chairs, queen-sized bed + mattress...
 
caitlyn, ya busy month in fact cos i'm taking over a port from a colleague who is leaving this month..... a lot of things to handle cos we got no replacement for the colleague who left so basically, it's a re-allocation of duties to add to our current ones...

ting, tell u hor, when we brought to the shop you mentioned, the owner there told us that the big ones are not hamsters! but white rats! nearly fainted man..... only the small ones are so he took them in. the rest went to SPCA for termination i think. wah piang, go back i scold my cousin that if he cannot differentiate between rats and hamsters, don't rear them.
 
daphne - oic.. poor thing.. then when u go on ML, ur colleagues will be super busy hor.. u in 3rd tri already rite? starting to feel heavy and all, still gotta take extra duties.. i sure cannot tahan one.. must take care ya.. wah, ur cousin really deserve a scolding man!
 
caitlyn, i like your sofa! ya lor but i think when i go on ML, dunno who can cover me leh.... cos now all headcount freeze.... my boss was asking me to be back after 8 wks and clear work for 2 wks before going off again..... now my ML has to work around my deadlines for all tasks... my boss now praying hard that i don't kenna pre-mature birth cos if not, projects confirmed screwed up.

ting, my hb said hor the shop closed down liao...
 
Caitlyn…nice sofa… I tot of getting new sofa also… a bigger one… actually we thought of changing the hse…
Do u all know how long then we can sell away our hse huh? Is it 3 years or 5years?

Daphne…aiyoooooo! RATS…my gosh
 
Daphne…poor thing… dun get too stressed up… baby more impt… nowadays work really so stressed up…we are just here to earn a living only…
 
daphne - thx.. y headcount freeze ah? cannot hire more stafF? but hink ur deadlines have to clear at least 2 weeks before EDD rite? coz can deliver anytime from wk38.. as for ML for 8 weeks.. i find tt it seems to fast to go back to work lehz. hee..

berry - how come thinking of moving hse? must stay 5 yrs then can sell..
 
Caitlyn,
I like ur sofa set very much too... me oso tot of change the sofa set, saw one set in seahorse, cost $599 nett, still thinking if we should get it boh.....

Berry,
U can only sell ur hse upon 5 years..U want to buy a 5-room flat huh ?

Daphne,
WHITE RATS ??? OMG, cousin definitely deserve a big scolding meh....
 
caitlyn- gd deal leh!! seems tat this sofa model is popular

daphne- rats?!?! gosh....

berry- if i rem correctly, it's 5 yrs thn can sell. u wana change to bigger flat ah?
 
Caitlyn…my hb was thinking of selling one… haiz dunno lar… I told him I no time for all these… his family lar..his bro lar…aiya all problematic…
Since must wait till 5 years…even better…
 
ting - is it? u noe others who have it ah? tt time they were having package and we thot it was a good deal.. but e main reason y we chose this is coz e sofa set big enuff.. most places the sofa sets now on e smaller side.. coz new hse all smaller mah..

jenn - ur sofa set now condition not so good? we thot for very long b4 we got it coz fabric.. and maintenane not easy.. but coz it's big enuf.. haha.. if leather tt size, sure burn big fat hole..

berry - u mean ur BIL stuff all tt not settled ah?
 
caitlyn, i cannot clear 2 wks before cos it's a project rollout globally and i have to follow their schedule instead of me setting it..... so i have to see what are the critical dates and if i can come back to clear it or if not, i gotta work from home.... no choice leh... cos change of dept boss and if we don't want the axe on us, we gotta take on more load to show that we are adding value to the company ..... that's the life of working in MNC. so i also think private sector can be quite underpaid.....
 
daphne - oic.. but not easy to look after newborn.. guess pay higher so must do more.. basically everyone is underpaid one lor.. coz when ur pay higher means must do more.. but e do more always not worth e higher pay!
 
Caitlyn,
My sofa is in fabic condition..very hard to maintain, as mine was in dark brown colour... easy to 'attach" dust and hair...

Me and hb will change to leather type, just use a wet cloth to clean will be much easier loh...
 
caitlyn- no ah. sounds gd to me! hehe... since u got qte a no. of things in. matress alone shd be 1k plus liao.. i like this kind of sofa too but worried abt the maintenance, if accidentally coffee spilled, tats it liao so wana stick bk to leather. we cannot buy too big also, livin area cannot accomdate. saw 1 3-seater alrdy cost 1.8k!!
 
I dunno their issues… its v messy one… I dun want to know…
Daphne…I agree with u… private sector can be underpaid…coz I think yearly increment is not really a lot compared to govt sector…
 
ting - for me is coz living room are quite large so need big sofa.. tt time we really headache coz when we looked ard, just sofa alone of tt size can be 2k++..

berry - dunno better.. as long as they dun drag u into it, it's good..
 
Caitlyn… u can use a small corner of your living room to make it a playground for Isaiah… I putting my bumper mat in the living room…

Actually I wanted to renovate my hse again…coz last time budget tight mah… but my hb fancy the idea of getting new hse… but we cannot get new hse liao if I not wrong…even can get… we can only maintain or upgrade coz we now already living in 5rm cannot downgrade to 4rm…
Then hor… I realize something… our combined pay cannot get new flat liao… we only can get resale…
So renovation would be best… then I can make a nice room for K too…
 
berry - tt's wat i intend to do.. but like maybe no space after all e furniture is in.. haha.. but he has his own room lah.. =) wah.. u n hb earn quite a lot hor.. actually now ur hse quite nice wat.. but cna do a nice nice room for kieran!
 
jenn, u gotten all your bb stuff? last sun i went to bugis and tot of getting the daily wear but then they not opened on sun leh..... so got to go down again another day.... then i went OG and i got this pigeon breast pad and nappy liner...
btw, i'm bringing my mum to Tao Restaurant on this sun for lunch too... u there too rite?
 
berry- if 1st flat is new, cannot get again rite? only can buy resale? got involve pay one? i only noe pay above 8k cannot buy hdb..
u r rite if stayin 5 rm nw cannot dwngrde to 4 rm. tats y we tinkin nxt hse, we get condo. but tink only lah! haha
 
oh ya.. for e MTBs, i went to bugis on sat to buy all e dried goods for my confinement.. was recommended by a fren to go there.. not bad.. they actually tell u wat to get and advice accordingly wat is necessary.. also wun force u to buy too much.. instead they give u minimum and say get hb to go back to buy if run out.. heard from my fren tt it's cheaper by 15% there.. i din do research so i dunno how true lah.. if gg there to buy bb's clothes can go n check it out.. can buy early and just keep..

it's on e 2nd floor of e hawker centre.. sell LONG MA stuff.. go up stairs can see liao..
 
daphne - like all e longan, red dates all tt.. =) they also sell pao shen, dang gui all tt.. e cordyceps very exp so i din buy.. will see later how.. wat i liked was tt she recommended some stuff like lan zao (which is a bit more exp then normal red dates) and tell us how to use it n to write down to use it sparingly also.. haha.. but it's not tt exp lah.. abt $5 whereas the normal red dates maybe $1..
 
Caitlyn,seems like u are super prepared for your confinement liao…u r always so detailed..in wedding…now confinement…
We don’t really earn a lot leh… I think I am underpaid…even my hb also think he is underpaid… but then all these cannot compare one… I think we shld be contented…
I also think do up a nice room for K can liao… but our hse really not much storage area…tot of doing some cabinets all that…
But provided hb agrees to this…

Ting, dun tink we will ever get condo… too much burden liao… cannot afford… a flat…a car… a baby is good enough to drain all your monthly income…
 
caitlyn, oh ok...... but i think Mrs Wong mentioned that not to take too much dang gui in the first wk? anyway, cordyceps is good for us and i'm taking it together with bird nest now.
 
Berry,
Ya, if u downgrade, u have to pay a heavy levy for tt. If combined salary more than $8k, must get condo, HDB wouldnt sell u their flat. If get resale, can get those 5 yrs wan lor... more than 10yr not good, cos hv to redo all the electricity wires....very exp renov lor.

Daphne,
Me oleidi bot my 40 disposable panties, 60pcs of maternity pad, 2 box of disposable breast pads, and 1mth supply of herbs for showering. Now already start to wash bb cloth diapers and clothing, will start folding tonight... Yap, me will be there around 12pm.. u lei ?

Caitlyn,
How much u spend in total for the dried goods ?
 
jenn, mine is 12.30. wah i only got 1 box niah.... cos i think mostly will need it only in 2nd mth since 1 mth at home most of the time.... will need to get the panties and pad soon..... me haven't washed bb's clothes yet... will do that once i buy the daily wear and wash all together i think.
 
berry - i think for us, we also will be doing up cabinets and all in a few yrs time coz now we din have e budget.. hee.. where got super prepared.. i just go the shop and say i need to buy confinement things.. haha.. then e gal ask if u want this, want that? i jsut say i dunno.. u say need then i buy lor.. but she gave us a pc of paper with e stuff n wat it's for.. like which is to make drink and which is to add to soup.. think jenn is much more prepared lor.. i haven't even wash bb clothes all tt.. hee.. u guys def earn much more than hb n i! hee

daphne - i dunno.. i jsut buy wat is necessary.. coz i believe CL will noe wat to do with them.. but like i said, i just bot e min qty.. coz i not too sure wat aare e necessities..

jenn - i din buy cordyceps.. so total was abt $145.. i bot pao shen but not e best grade one.. tt alone was $60 i think.. e rest are all not exp

Daphne,
As per my this morning sms, go to Giant to get the Mr P brand, heard is not bad and cheap, 20pcs for $5.90. If not, u can get sofy - 35cm, 8pcs for $2.80 in NTUC/Watson, now go promotional, buy 2 for $4.85 only.
 
daphne,
me also have not washed all my bb clothing. will do so nearer to date. otherwise scare dirty again.

jenn,
need to buy disposable panties meh?
cos tot of using the normal panties will do.
as for the maternity pad, what brand did you buy. my aunty and coll was telling me that just get those normal night pad will do, and change more often.
 
linda - better to get some disposable panties coz may stain them.. then u cannot touch water n it's not nice to ask ur CL to wash them.. i bot cotton disposables..
 
jenn did u went ntuc get the nepia? 2 for 26.95... but only M & L size...
i went to lug 4packs...now my hse like storing diapers...got 7-8packs...
caitlyn... ur hb my age leh... u younger leh..and my hb 5 years my senior leh.. so u add up hor...not really earning alot lor...

jenn..your CL good life leh... no need wash ur panties at all...
ur mum not workin huh?so she will full time take care jayden?
 
Linda,
I dun know lei, cos alot of ppl encourage to buy disposable, so i buy lor. I bot fm KKH pharmy, 7pcs for $2.90 with cotton...

As for maternity pad, the longest i found is sofy - 35cm with wing (8pcs for $2.80). The Dr P pad is 37cm without wing (20pcs for $5.90) only. So is more worth to get Dr P. (Pink colour packaging)

Dear all,
After u all washed ur bb clothing, dun put any moth ball near to their clothing lor... i put all the clothings into the cabinet.

Hmm, ytday was my 3rd wash liew, hv been washing blankets, towels, hand towels, socks, bibs and etc...and the clothing is so small, so hard to clip on the bamboo ...
