SINGAPORE EXPATS FORUM
Singapore Expat Forum and Message Board for Expats in Singapore & Expatriates Relocating to Singapore

Hi Lia! I googled for my obgyn and got lucky as we like him very much. You can also go to the Singapore Motherhood Forum. They have many reviews on all the obgyns in Singapore. However it is a very messy website. If you want someone who is pro natural birth and is willing to discuss your birth plan,...

Hi concubinage is to live together as a couple, nothing official PACS is an official bond between 2 people, a relationship contract is drawn between the 2. Not sure if it has any value for Singaporean authorities. Phone the embassy and ask. Best wishes Lily Hi Lily, I wanted to ask here first as on...

Interesting but the conclusion does point out a contractual liability in the link, before concubine status is used. How can this be different in Aus, because the word concubine, I thought only applied to contractual partners and their 3rd party lovers. I find it difficult to understand there could ...

Someone sent me a useful link: http://books.google.com.sg/books?id=kl_6chz3glAC&pg=PA164&lpg=PA164&dq=concubinage+vs+PACS&source=web&ots=zOuZuhhS4x&sig=1qLtLu_OLCv18Hpey11esipao04&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=8&ct=result#PPA163,M1 Am trying to get through the legalese now.

Thanks ksl! I got some of that from googling 'concubinage' as well. However, in France, concubinage does not mean that the man is of higher social standing or is married to someone else. It's is a different level of commitment than PACS. I was just wondering what the exact differences are as I can't...

Hi, can anyone help me define the difference between the 2? All documents I've found regarding this are in French which I am not that fluent in yet.

Would appreciate any help in this area. Thanks!

Great to find this thread. We got a Maxi Cosi Cabrio and were wondering how to use it. Does it face rearwards when you buckle it in a cab?
I know most people don't use carseats in cabs here but we're not taking the risk!

Snowqueen, I'm at TMC too and doing the ante natal class at TMC. All the 5 classes will be held at Ang Mo Kio. Doctors talk will be held at SCGS which is located at the junction of Bukit Timah Rd and Stevens Rd. The only thing I find about the TMC classes is that they are too many people in each cla...

For nappies, I've heard good reviews about Bumwear. Am going to have a closer look at their store soon. Thinking using nappies during the day at home, and then disposables when going out and for night time. If you're worried about having loads of washing to do when it comes to nappies, you can try t...

Hi mums! Sorry not to have been posting for a while. How is everyone doing? Plans for Chrissie and NYE? I'm in my 28th week now and waddling along just fine :wink: Trying to explore hypnobirthing options with Ginny at Fourtrimesters... Have to warn you girls though. Most local doctors prefer deliver...

I ordered Cheryl Shuen cupcakes for my baby shower and they were excellent!

She was very helpful and friendly as well for a last minute order. Collection is at her place at West Coast. I can send pics to whoever is interested

When is the next meet up?
I think Katie mentioned the next book was The White Tiger.

Ooh, and someone else may have the Border's preferred card too but I'll bring mine in any case because we get 10% off the food bill with it.
