happy.gif


YLN,
i rem you mentioned the location of yr school... keke... sure got a lot of super duper rich parents ready to show off...

isit? i saw you were very tall & slim that day... yup, black is safest...

my HB oso mentioned that i look more "ba" than last time but i say i aledi below pre-preggie weight & can fit in almost all my clothes liao... i asked him isit my nnp bigger now but he say my arms now very strong cos can carry handbag & cayla, last time cannot even carry handbag... he always suan me one... kekeke...

Shint,
you very funny, i got one ex colleague told me 2 years after giving birth, got pple give her seat & she blush until whole face red red...

Shay,
my gal will drink very slowly & also with a yucky face, i tasted the fbm & it does taste yucky with a vv fishy taste compared to fresh ones... in the end, she still drink la, cos she hungry ma... mb you can try mixing with fresh bm, i did that & she drinks at her normal pace...

cindy,
so you not bringing bb isit? can drop the number of pumps per day to maintain supply... depends on where you gg, if got shopping ctr with ok toilets or nursing place, just bring along a manual pump to pump out to prevent engorgment lor... i bot an avent manual pump just to bring overseas, i pump only twice a day, morning & night, rest of the day i will either bf baby or ren till i find a nursing room... bb was fed with fm or ebm. if cannot find nursing room...
 


dongle,
not bringing baby. Most prob leave her with MIL. So you brought ur baby along? How old is your baby and where you go?
 
wa... so many postings, I see until blur liao.

okie,

RE: gathering

How are we going to meet? i.e. is there at the entrance?

shint,
Or shd I sms u when I reach there? Any complimentary parking? I must go dig out the email you sent on your mobile..hee
I need to make arrangements for somebody to be in the house w maid and baby, not sure if I still can make it leh...
sad.gif


snow / celyn,
I also duno whether to go by weeks or mths.

snow,
how many wks is Zynn alrdy? cos I knw she and Chevelle born same day :p

YLN,
U got the Baby Einstein DVDs alrdy rite? Saw you commented that the DVDs u got are ok. Just want to check, is the whole thing in English or they mix with some language?
Cos when I played the first disc, it had some French and mb Spanish in it? Is that normal?
 
medusa,
I am considering some CCs first in case there's long waiting time. Still undecided cos not sure if shd send bb to CC near my parents' place or near my place.

hisstory,
no prob abt sharing bb's sleep habits.
Think now Chevelle starting to sleep more... as in she shd be able to fall asleep by herself more easily.

RE: gathering with babies
I'm game for it!
happy.gif
Would love to see all the babies... Haha... but need some place that accomodate all people.
Was thinking is there any place like restaurant that we can book one whole room for all the mummies and their babies?

re: swimming
any mummies noticed a dropped in milk supply after swimming? i swam at 4.30pm just now & my 5.30pm pump dropped... could it be the cold swimming pool water ah?
 
shint
i let my bb eheheh for abt a min..then she will scream already...i.e. if no one go and entertain her lar..usually she eheheh..then i will hide a corner and peep first...see what she doing..then i let her continue if she never scream..then when she scream...hah..thats when i go in..heehee..i very bad hor..but if everytime she eheheh then go and entertain her..very bo eng leh..

dongle..
u where got ba ba..i see u so small and petite so nice..can fit in jeans somemore..my one ar..can go until the thighs only..then cannot pull up liao...damn depressing..so now i keep my jeans in a corner where i cannot see one..otherwise will remind me of my fatty fatty thighs and waist..

hee hee ur hubby so furni..actually becuz of breastfeeding..nnp bigger le..then ar..the t-shirts i wear ..all like shorter liao...heehee so furni..bigger surface area to cover..heehee

valnsw
oh..i on the DVD with the theme of sounds..something like for the little ears..all english leh..havent tried the rest...got so many ..dunno which one to watch first also..maybe the one that says language something one is made up of different language issit?
 
von,
oh dear .. i would send my maid back too if she did that !!

Medusa15,
i very worry about her drooling .. wonder when it will stop.
Ya i still use the synergy but not very often. Ya i do get the backache sometimes, i think it's cos the carrier actually makes u straighten ur back totally, so it's aching from that. So far I still face Bernice in, cos her neck still will wobble abit after awhile. So I dont want her to "flop" down and cant see anything.

Megan,
u stay Eden ah ? I go there quite often cos my cousin lives there. I go there to play with my niece and nephew.But now they come more often instead cos easier for me. I PM you my contact.

re:brushing teeth
i used 1st teeth toothpaste just now & cayla enjoyed it so much, at 1st, she din open her mouth widely so i just brush her front gums, think wen she tasted the banana flavour, she opened her mouth very wide so that i can brush her gums at the back... she kept smiling too... after i rinsed the brush, i told her "open your mouth", she opened her mouth very wide instantaneously... so funny... me & my mum got a gd laugh...

re:putting hand into mouth
any good recommendations to stop the habit? cayla cries whenever she gets "pek chek" cos we kept taking her hand away from her mouth... isit time for teeth soothers yet? read that it's gd wen they r teething but now too early right?

re: baby swimming or massage
i realised i got a Hwa Xia free baby swimming or massage voucher, i can pass to any of the mummies tomo but the T&amp;C is for bbs < 2 months... must bring BC somemore... who wants?

gathering for tomolo

then i got to give it a miss...
happy.gif
anyone last minute back out, pm me... (i will replace as r number 6)
 
hisstory,
Er... keeps fingers crossed after I say this hor..
Actually, since yday after bring her to swim, she KO for 3 hrs straight.
Today, I was not at home in the aftn but according to the sleep/feed records that my mum made, Chevelle slept 12.30pm - 2.30pm.
When I was home at 4+pm, her next feed at 5.30pm, she drank 90ml then after her milk abt 6.25pm she just suddenly became cranky and cried but the moment my dad rocked her awhile, she just fell asleep but slept only 30min.
Then she woke up, play abit start to eh for milk at 7.20pm, give her milk and after she had her fill, she start to be sleepy again..

So I guess, mb when ur bb is ready to fall asleep by herself, she will too?
 
Valnsw
if i am not wrong maybe that is the last stage of discharge from fresh blood, to brownish to light brownish then to yellowish...
 
Catherine,
re: gathering
Thanks and noted. Btw any contact I can call if i couldnt find it or any last minutes thing. Can PM thanks.

hisstory,
I nv really train her to sleep on her own. Just that i make sure no one attend to her when she just go eheheh. Only if she cry real loud then we carry her. If she fell asleep in our arm, we faster put her down on her bed, if then she cry we will just pat her. At night,i will clean her then nurse her and then at her sleeping time, we will not talk, pat or carry her anymore. we put her sleep with us on her mattress but day time at the playpen in another room, this is to train her that sleeping with us on her mattress mean she got to sleep longer, and we will dim the light. She will eheh for awhile, no one attend to her she sian liao will automatic fall asleep. Haha!
But sad thing is that recently she learn to suck her finger and then this few days she very good at sucking thumb for comfort. She dont like pacifier lor but is i forcing her to suck pacifier. Everytime drop she will cry and start putting her thumb into mouth, I wake up saw it, remove it and put pacifier in, she cry for awhile then suck the pacifier and i go bk to sleep, then dunno how long, it drop again and she cry and put her thumb in her mouth again, whole night like that lor. Yesterday nv sleep thru lor just becos i intro pacifier to her and it keep dropping. Last few day not yet give her pacifier, she suck her thumb siong siong liao will remove herself and if she need comfort again she will suck her thumb again, so i wont have to wake up to help her.

Just now every funny... cos i dun want her to suck her thumb so i put on mitten for her again. She cannot suck her thumb anymore but keep squeezing her whole hand into her mouth, searching for the thumb. I just dun care and give her paciier, she cry for awhile then suckle the pacifier, after afew minutes i go to her, dunno how she mangaged to remove her mitten and suck on her thumb and she sleep until very siong like that. Argh... i dunno how also. Dont let her suck thumb like is distrubing her sleep leh
 
dongle,
wah you very capable leh, can bring ur baby to Japan...ur baby so young take plane liao..my baby not gg wif me, so a bit roublesome. guess i will have to reconsider gg holidays maybe after i stopped breastfeeding.

Re: Sucking Thumb/fist

Good Morning Mommies!

YLN &amp; Valnsw,

Hisstory,
I oso better stop buying clothes for Mae coz she seem to outgrow quite fast now...so wait awhile then start buying again...heehee

BB sleep - I sort of train my gal to fall asleep herself at night by leaving her in her playpen after milk...after some crying initially (and it gets shorter and shorter), now she wun cry even if she is still wide awake...she will entertain herself and then fall asleep liao...

Rata,
You PM me your contact then I cfm again this weekend?

Ruixuan,
I'm fine with your place too...or we can meet at JP coffee bean since if weekdays shd be not as crowded right? =P
 
shay
regarding fbm, try to give ur bb those tat are 1 mth old or lesser to see if bb react the same way. those that are less than 1 mth old should not have funny taste/smell. for my elder son, he rejected those fbm that are more than 1mth old. then i realised have funny taste. not sure why like tat though i store my bm well. this time for my girl the oldest fbm she drinks is only 1mth old. dun dare to store for too long else have to discard again.
 
morning mummies..
Red Patches
my gal also had it when she was 8-9weeks old, the pimples started appearing bit by bit on her cheeks, forehead and extend to the back of her neck...initially tot it was heat rash then slowly it develop into harsh red patches...so heartpain...then i bought her jin yin hua to wash her face a few times still cant work...
finally i try getting the candendula cream, it worked!! i just applied a thin layer on her face every nite until it clear off...
no harm trying..
 
msapple,
i use this nick to address u cos shorter to type and no typo ... haha.
Pacifier. Initially my son rejects but my maid vv persistent ... keep putting into his mouth cos i mentioned i am ok for him to take but dun take unnecessarily ... haha, soon he got used to it. But he doesn't quite know how to take it, it keeps dropping out after few seconds, he will push it out. Now, he pro liaoz, can suck it for a while before he pushes it out and we had to push it back in again.

However, once he falls asleep or seemingly asleep, we take it away. he's ok la.

Sleepy
********
The only thing vv scary is sometimes he vv sleepy (Suddenly) ... and can turn red and purple ... wail so loud ... then suddenly, within few minutes, his eyes closed and he stopped and he KO! heng, he so quickly KO else i sure damn stress. I carry, pat, sing, paci oso no use. can't imagine those babies who cry for long time.
 
M2B, Rata, TwinStar

i try to arrange a weekend due to M2B and if anyone cant make it then we still go ahead if the head count is 75% which is 3 mummies.... haha.. :p
