[Galantspeedz]

May i know which tao bao agent u r using?

[BlueOldMan]

Actually it's new or old packaging only but all from Ireland.

They don't sell same milk powder from Malaysia.

Agreed their price is cheaper compare to others.

 

Old n new packaging??? No ba, last x Ireland wordings in Ang mo leh

Now it's Malay words leh, my boy still having the gain iq 4

currently exploring to buy limited whole life insurance, as well as pte H&S shield plan for my kid....

 

exploring Tokio Marine Legacy Plus series for now because i like their Min Benefit feature.

 

H&S wise, i am still thinking...

was given the charges by the PD for the newborn vaccination.

 

wow never expect to be that expensive.

 

I was informed starting from 1st June onwards, newborn vaccinations (the basic requirement ones) will be provided free at polyclinics.

 

You guys heard abt it?

 

While it is free, the bane of going polyclinic will be the wait, as well as the vaccinations being administered by nurses instead of doctors.

 

Will there be a concern?

 

To me, i am indifferent since what i have seen at the hospitals is that nurses are also helping out with vaccinations anyway.

You know very well already. Nurses are more experienced in giving jab.

Thanks all for your helpful comments and feedback.

 

Btw do you buy infant milk from Ntuc/ cold storage, or from neighbourhood shops (decent aircon environment) which are selling at Lower prices?

 

I compared and the distributors and place of manufacturing is all the same. Safe to go for cheaper options?

 

Thanks again

if u work in changi business park, buy from the NTUC at UE Bizhub. can get $5 car park rebate, which is 13.5% discount for me.

now is $5 car park rebate with $30 spend?

 

last time i remember it was free, then convert to 1st 2 hours free with min $30 spend, and now change to $5 rebate?

yup.. now is $5 rebate with $30 spend. but i think the NTUC sign still says 1st 2-hr free ($2.80) which is not accurate.

How is the rebate given to you? The service counter tops up your cash card with $5?

Erm similac stage 1 & 2 is manufactured in Singapore, milk probably from europe. Enfa is from holland.

you show the customer service the receipt and they issue you a paper parking ticket. upon exit, remember to remove your cashcard and scan the paper ticket at the gantry. if your parking charge is > $5, insert back the cashcard the the remainder will be deducted.

 

by the way, there'll normally be a long queue into the changi city point mall carpark during weekends. the smart thing to do is to park at UE Bizhub coz there's no queue, walk across to changi city point mall to shop and dine, then walk back to UE Bizhub NTUC for a $30 grocery purchase, and you get free parking at the same time. the funny thing is many people don't know that there's two carpark entrance to UE Bizhub. i often see the main entrance queued up with cars (when carpark is full), but you can actually enter via a second carpark entrance by turning left around the building and skip the whole queue coz almost nobody is aware of it.

Finally reaching first month of my newborn...starting to get the hang of the kid patterrn.

 

Now, i m torn if i shd shave the baby hair or not. He has such nice and smooth hair that i thiught it will be a waste.

 

At this moment, i am inclined not to shave, but maybe cut a few strand of hair during full month just for ceremonial purposes, even thoughh i have no clud what the shaving symbolises.

 

Nonetheless, i am interested to use some of his hair and make into a brush for souvenir sake. However not sure if the company that does this is ok with only cutting a little of his hair, instead of a full shave.

Anyone has experience with this company?

 

Thanks

Thinks it's all up to you. I have 2 nephew and one niece shaved bald and one niece never shave bald at all. Regarding the brush better check with the store, because only the artisan knows how much hair to make a brush.

Btw, heard from the pediatrician saying there may be some changes from 1st of June with regard to vaccination. Anyway my daughter only need vaccination after 1st week of June.
