Re slings, moses basket etc....

Hi Tracey,

We ended up going down the second hand route, and got most of our stuff from a friend who's little girl is now 3 and has grown out of it all.

The only thing I am looking to buy new is a sling. For the rest of the summer I am thinking of using the hot slings. They are made from UV protective material and you can keep them on whilst in the pool!! I figured that they would probably be the most comfortable in the heat. Will probably go to a more conventional sling or bjiorn after that.

We have a push chair too although I am not to thrilled about the prospect of having to use it for the first time in HK, a little daunting to say the least, so hoping to use the sling for most things.

By rocker do you mean like a bouncy chair? If so then am pretty sure they are suitable and I will definitely be buying one of those too. They are good for putting baby in whist doing housework etc if you dont want them in a sling all the time.

As for work a moses basket sounds fine, we will probably be doing the same. It is good that your boss is happy for you to take her in!

Anyone playing Classical music to your baby yet????

Hi Shoni & Tracey,

I am doing the same thing. Have bought a stroller and BBjorn 2nd hand but now looking for a sling to start off with. Apparently you can order 'hot slings' online through a Macau based company (or Shoni, have you found them in HK?).

I already think the stroller I got is too heavy for HK 9Peg Perego P3), but if we move to Tung Chung it will be fine. I have heard the Graco Citisport is great for lightweight travel (and cheap too!).

All the best and let's catch up soon! :flower:

Cheers,

Rachael
 
Hi Rach,

Tung Chung?? I thought you were going to move to Olympic...

I have a per perego which is heavy but dont really want to have 2 strollers, as no place to store them.

Hotslings I found over the internet, not bought yet though. I like the look of them as there are no fastenings and they look snug and safe for a newborn.

Did you have a god trip??

Shoni
 
Hi Shoni,

Yes, had a great trip, although it must be said for us having a holiday to somewhere like Ko Samui without alcohol is VERY strange!! So many more hours in the day.....

Tung Chung, yes, I know, a bit of a departure from Olympic. We are not 100% yet. You just get so much more for your $$$ out there, and it's so much greener and quieter than downtown Olympic. Still trying to get a response from our landlord re. a lease break so it may not happen for a while.

How are you going with the preparations? Have you got everything or still shopping?

Take care,

Rach X
 
thanks everyone for your wonderful imput. i am going to study this on Sat and go forth!!

Sarah, I quickly looked at the lillebaby.com - SO cute!!! Will look more on the weekend.

keep well. trace
 
rachrobin,

long time no talk ...Tung Chung is greener and quieter than downtown but be aware of the air pollution
