hi mummies - long time did not login... isabella is now 68cm and weighs 8.8kg as of last Fri...PD did not comment that she is over weight, so i guess so far so good then....
She will be 6 months old this coming 25th...and will start her on the cereal and puree.
Diana - Was running through the posts and wow the lobang is good huh...I am also keen to get the porridge cooker that you bought at Robinsons. Will go check out this weekend.
Anyone bringing your little ones to classes, like Kindermuzik, Gymboree?

<font color="aa00aa">tht's 3 weeks apart, belle very well fed
I was sharing with the doc about his losing interest in milk as I intro semi solids, doc agree with me, so now, I am feeding 180mls 3x with 2 solids a day. was feeding him 240mls. doc told me drinking too much milk, baby will be very chubby, which is not so good ( read: fat)</font>

Diana - I guess FM will be fatter vs EBM...Bella is now on 180ml of FM every 4 hours and she sleeps through at night. Am thinking to give her 1 solid for a start and slowly increase to twice a day. But no worries on them being fat cos they will lose it eventually as they grow. My son was very chubby when he was a baby, and now i wish he could eat more! He is still drinking milk pretty much throughout the whole day...

<font color="aa00aa"> agree, that's why the doc said, feeding baby, not right or wrong, every child is different. I remember giving 180mls 4-5x a day then he cried for more after 180mls so my relatives asked me if I wanna increase, I tried 240mls and he finished all in less than 15 min! and the feed lasted him 5 hours or so. he sleeps thru the night since 8 weeks old so minus the sleeping hours, I only get to feed him 3x a day, bcos most of the time, he naps thru his feeding time by 1 hour. then i intro solids in between, like every mom, I am afraid not feeding enough/starve him as all told me not to disturb baby when he is asleep, which I agree, asher is a happy boy most of the time (enough sleep, enough feed).
now that he loves his porridge, puree more than his milk, after 180mls, the remaining took us more than 30 min to coax. I hope I am making the right decision to feed him 180mls now.

I guess we learn from mistakes and i must say motherhood is a long learning curve.
Now we worry about if we give enough milk/food to them, when they go to school, we will worry if they can catch up with the rest in the class, when they go into secondary school, we worry if they will mix with the wrong companies....just so many things to worry as a mum

Thanks Mrs Neo! Got it. We don't qualify. hahahaha! Darn.
I agree with ASHM and Diana. I wished I found this website earlier and learn from the experienced mommies here. I'm a first time mom and pretty much alone in another location and the support I found here is fantastic.
Just to share my experience - Max developed very bad colic from week 3 and will cry like clockwork from 8pm onwards. I was physically and emotionally exhausted. We had to carry and rock him to ease his pains. And he never developed the sleeping through the nights either. I tried feeding him as best as I could, but because he's colicky, I was scared sh**less about him developing reflux. He did throw up his feeds sometimes. Those were my dark days and I cried buckets. Now, its better, but he still is very inconsistent with napping and sleeping through. But I have consoled myself that at least he's healthy. Will be nice to get to know a supportive community though!! Sorry for boring you with this. Just felt like sharing.
And the experience I have so far is some days, my little bubba will take 180ml, some days he struggle with 60ml, some days can take 210ml hands down. My PD told me, just look at average...don't focus on per feed, otherwise I will go bonkers. hahahahaha

Hi mummies
Havent been posting much here but have been reading. Hee...now popping in to say hi!
PY: The pampers deal is really good! Cheapest by far. Problem is I got 5 M-sized packs sitting in the storeroom already. Feel so cheated by the expo and NTUC. It just gets cheaper and cheaper. Maybe will stock up on the L sized one.
Re Stranger Anxiety
My yx is also showing obvious signs of this. No longer the super friendly baby whom everyone can carry. Kinda sad. She cries when she sees my MIL and FIL. Funny thing is she is ok with my SIL although same as my MIL and FIL, she sees her only once a week. Also I notice she is showing gender preference. She prefers to be friendly to females hahahah...everytime a man tries to carry her, she will start pouting.
Re: Social obligation
Sigh I am also torn in this. Last sat went dinner with ILs and BB Kay was so tired from the sobbing (cos' MIL kept wanting to try carrying her even though she knows YX will cry) and laughing as a result, she was so over-stimulated (din help that she took a nap at 9pm and 10pm), that she slept at 1.30am! Really dun like the idea of returning home so late. But then again, can't be help, afterall ILs only sees her once a week. Just that I end up the tired one cos she will be always looking for me when she got upset by my ILs' carrying. I am always the one calming her down then upon return to home, I am the one coaxing her to sleep etc. Well, nothing much can be done, I guess...can't be help lah.
Sian..returning to work in another 1.5 weeks time. Not helping that my mum's new helper is still not here...dunno how she is going to manage. No way I can start training yx into a routine before I return to work. We are going to miss each other so badly! Perhaps the only good thing is that she suddenly takes an interest in bottles. Been feeding her in the day using bottles for 2 days. Just hope this continues. *cross fingers*

Babymax - Another alternative for colic problem, besides giving the oral medicine, is to try osteopathy. I will bring both my son and daughter to see this french therapist when they have cough or running nose. I dont know how to explain in detail how he treat them but all i know is he will do some adjustments on them (like pressing or aligning some parts of their body).He can also treat children who cannot sleep well. I am bringing my son to see him for that this fri....

i bought Enfalac from the shop in Rivervale Plaza too. It's manufactured in Netherlands.
My gal dun seem to be able to recognise me until now! Sometimes when i come home from work, my hubby will bring baby downstairs for a walk and meet me. So i just stand in front of her, and she totally ignore me and continue to admire her surroundings! Feel soo sad.... So until now, anyone can carry her also...
