Hey Cheri,

Glad to hear that the MS is going! Now you can really enjoy being preggie~ they say that the second trimester is the most fun part of the 9 months. Anyway, for maternity wear, you can try this shop http://www.maternityexchange.sg/, it's got quite a unique concept as it let's you rent/buy the clothings. Think it's located at Marina Square? Can't remember, though I got the flyer from there.

Jazol, yup that's true.

Try to lie in bed as much as you could. I know difficult but try lor.

 

[puroland]

Hi len, from wat i know, the best timing to visit europe would be Sept-Oct period. Try to book your ticket 1 to 2 month ahead of time to enjoy better discount.

 

[law_len]

Yeah, I intend to book my Mar trip soon from Dynasty....but not sure able to extend a few more days anot from them....now thinking whether to F&E in London, Barcelona or Paris...will b broke by then already..

Puro, that time u didnt get to visit the Gucci factory outlet too right? I also went to check out the hotels on the web, dun seem very gd leh...

kaye, tough lei... bt will try lor..

 

[jueline]

Congratulations on all soon-to-be brides here!!! Mine will be in 25 days time! Really excited!

Any of you brides here decided to get a real wedding cake instead of using the hotel provided one?

 

[puroland]

we din visit any Gucci factory outlet, we went to wine tasting, but according to them, different period, they will have diff place to visit. Like the wine tasting only happen before Oct tour, after that will replace with other place.

As for the extension, must see luck de, cos when follow tour is group air ticket. That time when we go, we are not allow to extend, cos no air ticket.

Hotel in europe is bloody expensive....Hahaha... Swiss is worse. Most of the room we stay in swiss is really very very small that kind. But aleast its with toilet. And the funny thing is some toilet their basin area no drainage de. U know sometimes u will spilt water all over the place from the tub to the basin area rite. Then there is once i kinda stupid, i go and spray water onto the basin area to wash the floor, then shit! No drainage! I almost flood the room cos the water sip out...then I fast fast use towel to stop the water from getting into the carpet outside. Hahahah....

 

[law_len]

Oh dear..thats very bad leh!!! Hahaha...no drainage? So funny man...Hehehe...

The F&E thing, maybe i will go back n find out more.....hopefully able to extend. In late Nov, i m going to Vietnam for a short break...Yipee!

 

[kayemoss]

Piglet, *hugs* Share with us if u want!

Today my ILs came up to my place unannounced again! I gave up asking my hubby to tell them. They very good... KPO here and that to see whether the CL is doing her job or not... I realised everytime, they see me eating vegetables or fruits. They will comment,"U can eat them meh?"

The best thing is my daughter did not wake up for them to play with! My FIL was so paranoid when he saw Claire vomitted a bit of milk out....

Now i realised, moving to my Mum's place is the best option. At least, they wont anyhow come up to her place.

 

[kyra]

Are you going with the radio station?

I CANT GO ANYWHERE THIS YEAR! So bloody sad. I have 5.5 days of compulsory leave to clear, else will be forfeited. Wanted to go Taiwan but it is super expensive if I were to only book now, budget airline ard 1.5K for 2pax in mid Dec. Then I asked my boss if I can leave end Nov, he said cannot =(

Mid Dec...everywhere expensive leh

 

[tryphena]

kaye, ur ILs are weird people why are they so rude. bb vomit abit of milk is common as prob they din swallow dwn the fluid. tink u better move to ur mum's plc if nt u will suffer fm depression. look positive and be happy

 

[meie]

Hello Girls,

I've been really busy at work as I am busy preparing for my company's ISO audit next week, so many documents to prepare!

piglet, *hugs* let us know if you need a listening ear ok?

kaye, I think it is beyond your control that your in-laws drop in on you... nothing much you can do about it. I also understand that you can't tell them off, so for the moment, just relax & let it be. After you move over to your mum's place, they won't simply drop in already.

 

[law_len]

No leh...i m going using the Citibank credit card promo....per pax will comes up to $508 with extension...and total of 4D3N. I have intended to go HK but its 880+ per pax....so expensive, thats y we changed plans. Hehehe...

 

[anise]

jean goh... can send with me ur MUA... i oso looking for 2nd MUA =) wanna have somethin different during the 2nd march in..

 

[porky_jean]

anise, u do not have a MUA from ur BS ? my MUA is include in the package leh. i only top up extra cos i need her to stay until my 2nd march in mah.

 

[kayemoss]

Mei, i can imagine the amount of documentation for the ISO audit. When the ISO auditors came over to my co, the HR really treat them very nice to prevent a lousy rating!

Yup, can't be bothered with my ILs. No point risking my mental health over them. I had suffered from post natal blues due to them, I wont let them do it the 2nd time.

I will move to my Mum's place soon after Claire turns 1 mth old.

 

[anise]

oh actually i do haf a makeup artist doing for mi, jûz dat she chargin at 120 thus find it ex, wanna look for outside freelance mua

 

[porky_jean]

oic. my MUA is also a freelance but is attached to my BS loh. i can give u the contact if u want. actually she told me that for outside ppl usually she charge $150 for change of 2nd march in hairstyle...but since she is doing my day & nite makeup, so she only charge me @ $100 for the 2nd march in loh.

 

[porky_jean]

hi gals, i am kind of relax now leh, cos i also dunno what else need to do loh. i am done with GDL, now the next event will be AnChuang on 15 Nov.

my seating arrangement will be quite simple lah. 1 table for my company, 2 tables for my frens. then my mum side will be 8 tables, the rest is my hb's fren and IL's relative loh. so we each arrange our own sitting arrangement.

[porky_jean]

btw, can i ask 1 stupid question ? when must i start to paste the big XI stickers on my bedroom doors, wardrobe doors & main door huh ?? some ppl tell me can paste after GDL, some ppl tell me paste few days before AD...really confused leh. pls help...

[jueline]

Hi Vincee,

Adding you in my Multiply list.

 

[jueline]

Hi Ladies,

Question: Who will be the one holding the red umbrella to shield the bride on AD?

My HTB told me he did it for his sister but I read on the forum that a female relative is preferred. I think I will get my bridesmaid to do it if this is the case...

 

[anise]

just to check with u gals.. normally its GDL den an chuan izzit? coz seems like mine is the opp wor... lost..

where u are get the xi sticker from? an particular places selling cheap??

sher.... wat is undone for u? tho most of ur stuff already 7788 completed? i now still doing my corsages..already done one..still got 4 to go... doing different color. tinkin back, to get the MUA for a change in styling for 2nd march in is real ex... maybe i should do it by myself...dunno how..

 

[kayemoss]

Hallo ladies!

Smilez, how u feeling these days?

I think if my ILs saw the amount of milk Claire vomitted last nite. They will be so paranoid. I m slowly adapting myself to taking care of Claire. I can't imagine for a little baby like her, she can poo so much!

Seeing her grow day by day, made my efforts worthwhile!

 

[smilez]

Kaye, me starting to feel tired every day even though I sleep at 10.30pm. =P
Yesterday all the bb stuff came in already. Finally clear up the baby's room! So happy! Now massive washing his clothings. Only did the 2nd batch. Still got 3 or 4 more batch to go. He got enough clothes to do fashion show oledi. Ha!
Good to hear tat u r feeling fulfiling with Claire's presence. Can't wait to 'lay' my hands on my prince too!! =) hee~

 

[tryphena]

hi ladies!

kaye, today is sunday so ur hub shld be home accompanying you n Claire. so coincidently, my fren's daughter oso named Claire.

smilez, u must be excited now. another few more wks ur little prince will be out.

piglet, not to worry. ugly things will sure happen in office if tins din work out. 2 wks ago, smtin os happened in my office after my 2 days mc. so take care and take it easy ok. *hugz*

 

[porky_jean]

ya normally is GDL den an chuang bah...

anise, chinatown sells a lot of XI stickers. usually is about $1 for 1 sticker loh.

 

[iceblue27]

hi like to check wit u gals, any1 wen to get set of pyjamas(bride n groom) to wear on the night b4 wedg?

 

[monkie]

for me, i did buy a new set of pyjamas to wear one night before my wedding.
fh no...cos he very afraid of hot, and sleep half naked.

 

[kyra]

Yah lor

We have thought of going Taiwan by this yr and Greece in Q1 2008 but didnt have the foresight to book earlier as we were overwhelmed by the shifting house + settling the dogs project. Now shifting almost done and dogs are getting fine but the tickets (even the budget ones) are so expensive!

My sister (who is a teacher) is very lucky. She has 2 close friends working in SIA and they are always willing to wait for her to travel during the holiday peak seasons. She's leaving for Taiwan + HongKong, total 7 days, the airfar & hotel only cost her a total of $800. NOT FAIR!

puroland - Xmas is long weekend this year? This is great! My hb's cousin getting ROM on Xmas Eve and MIL said both of us cannot go because it's still within 3 months! Gathering + Xmas Eve + Good Food = We Cannot Go? Sob Sob! The funny thing is, the cousin and his gf came to our wedding dinner, I had wanted to rebuke on this but hb stopped me. ANGRY. He better give me a good Xmas treat and present to make up for this man.

 

[mrsgan123]

good morning ladies...

smilez, date is drawing nearer counting down to see your prince.. dont gan jio... i guess now all things should have settled and waiting for him to come.

[chidori]

[kayemoss]

Von, must share.... Give us the url to see!

Jazol, my hubby is the one who gave Claire her Chinese & English name. Her Chinese name is å­æ™°, basically he wants her to be clear & bright. He din put Claire in her birth cert so that Claire has the option to change her English name. Anyway, i called her Piglet most of the time!

This Sun, i m going to see my ILs priceless look on their faces again.... Hehe, my Mum has invited some of her frens that we re not inviting to Claire's celebration on 25 Nov to my pl this Sun to have the pig trotters vinegar etcc.

Imagine my ILs look when they see so many ppl here.. Hehe... So evil of me!
