Shopping for Baby

• We are one of those kiasu parents who bought majority of the items whilst in my 2nd trimester. Now that we are slowly taking them out to wash, it seems like there are always other things to buy.
  
  My dearest colleagues have been asking me what I need so here goes:-
• Baby monitor - Jo & CF: thanks for offering to get this! Hopefully I won't end up with the campbell version ( Jo : You forgot to mention the string attachment...else it won't work =)
• Winnie the Pooh bath set (from mothercare -it comes with Bath thermometer, sponge, Cuddle 'n' Dry hooded towel (100% cotton), wash mitt (100% cotton), Top 'n' Tail bowl. )
• Lots of diapers (Pampers - S/M/L are welcome)
• Muslin Squares
• High chair
• Baby walker ( would likely get Margaret to order this from Joaqium)
• Baby bouncer
• Baby gate
• Ang Baos are welcomed too!

36 weeks and 4 days!!

Am reaching full term in 3 days time! Last league of the race ! Baby is now 2.8kg and I've gained almost 14kg. My pelvis is starting to ache as the baby lowers into my abdomen. Getting out of bed each day is so difficult with the heavyweight. What's more am still down with flu.. this bug better go away before my delivery! Wouldn't want baby to catch it from me! Though doctor say that she is well protected in the placenta, I hope baby's respiratory system is not affected in anyway.

Am so not well!

I've been sick for almost a week now. Fever, flu, cough the works!

Really been a tormenting period for my family and me. Mum and Chris have been put on 24hour nursing duty.. changing icy cold towels to reduce my body temperature. Relieve came when my temperature finally dropped from approx40 degree to 37 after 4 days of tender loving care!

Baby and I are both grateful to daddy and granny for taking care of us !
