hi jac.. how far apart is your GDL to your AD? if 3 weeks apart, i think its fine. if less then i think its abit too tight. Probably u could confirm your guest attendence before sending your cards. At least you know these ppl has already agree to come.
heee.. ivy.. the way u described your mom occupying your room .. so funnie.. no worry lah.. if u start early to pack up your 'ex-room', think should not be a problem.. the most, hide everything inside the cupboard first.. remind everyone not to open it! hee...
jen.. my min no. of table is 30, max 50. I counted I have about 32 tables. and there are about 5-6 empty seats already.. so now i am starting to look at the 'reserved list' to fill up these spaces. Didnt want to invite these people at the very last min too, incase they think i am not sincere lor..
ffbear..ya mann.. mine like pig sty.. mom has been nagging me .. but i kept pushing it back too.. ;p wonder next time..how my MIL can tahan me..haha..

hey samkoh.... i think i might face a similar issue... with regards to the DEM issue!!!!! THink might kenna on my AD.... i shall monitor next mth how... if realli close..prob take med from doc to delay lor... oso gotta depend on when im gg HM or not... see how 1st den arrange... too early to predict now~~
Hi sam
to ans ur qn abt the monthly period. *apologise to daman*... u calculate the mth before and if AD hits the day ur period comes.. u can go get "delay" pills from the GP. But u gotta be very sure that the period will come on the day and start the pill 3 days or 1 week before AD. After AD is over, u can stop the pill and then let things back to normal. However, side effects is that u may feel a little bloated.

samkoh, i already called & asked. the lady said they do not have. even if i wan to custom made, she also said she does not do.....
your worry abt auntie visiting on AD, is not a problem at all. no need to monitor also. just go to see the doc before hand to get the medicine to delay it. 1 tablet is abt $1. 1-2 tablets a day. it will work. i always take the medicine when i am out of town & auntie comes... no side effects for me.
also, angeldust, no need to take 3 days or 1 week for AD to delay the period. can wait till u see spotting (ie, it is coming) before taking the medicine. it is very effective, with the medicine, the period will stop within 24hrs. and when u stop the medicine, the period will become within 3 days.

Hi silentelf... my GDL is abt 2 weeks before oh... on the 10th... u are right... so i guess 4-6 weeks before the AD is pretty ok? i only worry that ppl agree to come, n back out last min.... Oh n i agree with you that we all better tidy up our pigstys... n better start early!... hehe... some brides that i helped out had really messy rooms..... hehe....
Hi CSI, I dun think u are being KS lor... its better to start early, rather than push everythin to the last min right? i had a gf who gave me her invite only the week b4 her AD....

i got this site from a friend's site.. its suppose to help u calculate your fertile period.. once the results are out, it will give u a table of the other fertile periods.. so from the dates, you can estimate when your da yi mah will visit u liao..
http://www.babycenter.com/calculators/ovulation/
DaMan know all these details... he can help DaWife remember too what if she forgets what we said.. haha..
but we will never be sure if DEM will visit on time... stress can cause it to come earlier or later too..

angeldust, what u mentioned is wat most doctors will tell us before taking the medicine. but there was 1 time, i saw an old experienced doc, he shared me this additional info & most doc generally goes by wat the book says.... so i tried his instruction & he is right! the medicine prescribed are the same generally
another incident to share
my sis broke her arm few yrs back & was put on cast. 4 weeks later, she went to see the doc at the specialist centre, the x-ray's results showed that she has recovered. thus, the doc then removed the cast & instructed her to come again 2 weeks later for another follow-up. during these 2 weeks, my sister can move her arm, no pain, everything per normal. in the 2nd follow-up, my sis saw another doc at the specialist centre. this doc was so shocked that my sis was not wearing a cast & sent her off to put the cast back. my mum was so furious abt it & demanded an explaniation. the 2nd doc told my mum, the rule in the books is to wear the cast for 6 weeks! the 1st doc was called in & justified that yes, that was the rule. but my sis being young heals fast & it was shown on her x-ray results & thus, he removed her cast after 4 weeks!
then guess wat, during this process, my sis has already put back her cast - $80. in the end, the 2 docs, told my mum to make the decision - ie, to let her wear the cast again for 2 more weeks OR remove the cast (& wast the $80) since the 1st doc said x-ray results showed she healed!

ribbons, that chart is not accurate b'coz it assumes that women belongs to the 28 days cycle.
but not all of us are 28 days cycle. some are longer some are shorter.
they are other more accurate ways to determine when the menses will come & when a woman will be fertile. eg, using a basle themometer (can buy from pharmacy) & takes your temperature every morning when u wake up (but still in bed). chart the temperature everyday for a few mths u wld be able to see the pattern & your own cycle.
anyhow, u can read more from the medical website or books. good luck

yuki, the delaying period medicine will hv an effect on our hormones. so, different people react differently. well most doc will tell u, it will not disrupt the cycle. some girls will still experience that.
another good eg in our day to day life will be certain kind of food some girls cannot take... eg, i cannot take too much of tonic & heaty food.. if not, my period will not come..

diamond... that link ah, allows u to choose the type of cycle a girl has... There is a drop down option to select number of days.. which is good lor.. i know what u mean by diff pple having diff cycles.. but this one can choose from 20 days to 45 days for a cycle.. so big a range, i think most pple can fall into this range lah.. =) but still its just a estimate.. be it a online or book knowledge.. still must take with a pinch of salt..
my friend cannot take prunes.. when other pple take prunes, they relieve constipation faster.. if my friend take prunes, her dym comes faster.. haah..

oh... haha.. sorry, thread moving too fast. THe maple syrup thing? neh... my 'drunk' beauty salon sales girl told me everything about it and she say i can achieve the same results by simply drinking plain water.. she say if i scared plain can use honey too..
i saw the Expressions Maple syrup.. quite ex for syrup leh..

diamonds - i prefer not to dwell on the medication subject. let the patient who is requesting delay pills to deal direct with their own family doctor. I aint an expert nor in the medical profession.
Every medicine has varying contents & the composition may also vary tho they may serve the same purpose it may not suit everyone in question. no further comments. Only offering suggestion to Samkoh. Back to what Daman said - can give suggestion but whether to implement depends on the person himself or herself.
ivy, tt's what I think too.. but don't think my hotel will tie up with any banks to have discounts.. tt's y i m thinking if I can get any cash back or double points to redeem for NTUC or cold storage vouchers..
Time is running short.. so worried that I might forget any items

Hello...
Diamond-Sori... thot I saw the scroll there. Maybe somewhere else. They maybe you can try those shops where they frame pictures. Some ppl mount pics/paintings on scroll. Maybe they have.
Angel-Thanks for the suggestions with regards to the DEM issue. Dun really like to take that kind of pills scared that will have side effects. Neva try b4 so dun intend to try. My DEM quite accurate one so maybe wont kena lor. Some more want to try have BB liao. So dun play play.
The maple syrup oso got detox effect. So maybe will go toilet more often after drinking.
I handmade some earrings for JMs. So will give AP & small gift.
318bi-can try make corsage yourself if got time. Just buy ribbons and fabric flowers from Arab St and glue together can liao. I went to Kin Soon Company @ 36 Arab St Tel:62983391. The lady there very helpful and can give you suggestions.
Stefy- put in about 1-2 lime (the big ones not small ones for mee siam kind)for 1 bottle of water. This method can try just b4 yr AD to shed extra.

318bi: no no... not suggesting only soya bean milk for dinner only.. i'm saying maybe in place of just plain fluids maybe u can replace with flavoured yet relatively healthy options..
previously i always skip dinner.. but thing is my lunch time is at 1pm and cannot eat much cos i just had breakfast at about 8-9am..by the time its dinner, i actually quite hungry liao, bu i tahan dont eat, next meal is only next morning breakfast... i think all this tahaning led me to get quite bad gastric pains.. so i stopped skipping dinner.. so now i just take very light dinners..
