due in May 08...

I'm due end of April - but so far, it seems to be twins so might be a bit earlier... scary and exciting! We also have a DS who will be 20months around that time.

Anyone else?
 
Due in Mid-May

I'm due in mid-May. Still too early to have an exact date but OB thinks on the 20th. This is my first and I'm very excited! I can't stop looking at the different prams available. I have no idea what to look for.

:yeah2
 
my husband set his eye on teh quinny when we had only been dating a few months, so i think that is what we may end up with, it's been fun looking at baby stuff but we are moving into a real apartment Monday (we just moved here and we are in corporate housing for the first month) so we have been waiting to buy baby stuff, but I think we may just wait until we know if it is a little boy or girl. where do you live tikk? we looked at mothercare they had a few prams, and i heard there are some other great places. so exciting! CONGRATS!
 
Welcome to Hong Kong Rebekah!

I live in Sai Kung, New Territories so we will need an all terrain pram for the village lifestyle. I love vintage-retro stuff especially prams but I don't think they will be so practical here in the hot climate and crowded environment. I'm not going to find out the gender of the baby so I'm going for gender neutral stuff. Congratulations to you too!
 
I'm due 1st June 2008 - 3rd baby in 3 years!

I'm only about 5 weeks, but feel like I've been pregnant for months already! It must be something about second and subsequent pregnancies that make your belly pop out the minute the HPT reads 'Pregnant'!
My doc is Dr Alex Doo and I'm planning to give birth at Matilda. Doc says he will book me in at my 6 week check up next week.
Has anyone got any feedback from giving birth recently at Matilda? Are there any rooms better than others? etc?
I'm thinking about getting the Phil & Teds double stroller for my newborn and my 1 year old (she will be 1 1/2 when baby arrives) and my 2.3 year old (who will be about 3 when baby arrives) can just try and walk everywhere!
I'm also planning to getting a night maternity nanny for the first 12 weeks after baby arrives, through Rent A Mum. Shirley Robinson has been most understanding. It's very expensive, but I feel it will be worth every penny. I just can't bear to think about going down that path of sleepless nights once again! Has anybody used a night maternity nanny in order to sleep well during the night after baby arrives? (I do feel a tad guilty but I have to get my rest at night to take care of 2 busy toddlers AND a baby).
And I was just wondering who out there lives in Hong Kong (Mid Levels) and gets around using taxi's? I'll have 2 toddlers and a newborn and I'm wondering if I"ll need to hire a car and a driver so I can get around safely and efficiently. Taxi's drive me crazy and it's very unsafe with the kids not being strapped in. Any thoughts?
Thanks ladies for listening.
:thanks
 
Hi all,

I am due April 11. I currently live in DB but am moving into a newly-renovated house (by us! It has taken 6 months!!) in Mui Wo on Lantau Island next month. This is also my first! Congratulations to the rest of you!
