planet, that's strange...i don't know, i mean, i spend so much time with my boy, i really would be heartbroken if he prefers my husband, wuhahahaha. My dad tells me this is called 缘. That even in a parent-child relationship, there has to be 缘 between the 2. Sometimes there isnt, so the relationship wont be so close. I'm not sure if it's true lar.
gg_lee, my husband bobian. He just feels so helpless when he sees our boy wailing like a chicken and he wants to comfort & cuddle him but our boy will literally kick him in the face. Yes, when our boy wails, he likes to roll on the floor too so when my husband attempts to go near him, he will start his flying kicks. His actions are very perplexing. I sure hope this is just a phase because i'm very close to buying a cane.
re: steriliser
Due to a real good discount at Robinsons a couple of years back, the Avent steriliser i bought was the digital one. Function wise, the digital & the electronic ones are the same. Just that the digital one allows the stuff to be kept sterilised for 24 hours IF you do not lift the lid. If there will always be someone at home with your baby, there is no need to get the digital one. But for parents who will be putting your babies in infantcare, get the digital one. Because when you leave for work in the mornings, with the stuff in the steriliser, they will no longer be considered sterilised when you reach home with baby. With the digital one, you do not have to sterilise the stuff again when you reach home. It was extremely convenient for me, when i reach home with my boy, tired and rushed and he wails for milk. Where got time to sterilise the milk bottle?
re: simple home clothes for babies
I got my boy's everyday wear from this shop Shen Kwong at 269 Queen Street. It's quite near the temple & OG at Bugis. The stuff is very simple, no frill kind. Basic cotton. Mummies may wish to take a look if they are fine with really basic clothings. I do rem they are not opened on Sundays thou. Sats i can't rem. I like their stuff because it's cheap enough ^^ Stuff like towels, mittens, booties, they have also...Can't remember if they have stuff like receiving blankets or not. For those small square washcloths, i rem i needed PLENTY of those! I think they sell that too. The auntie is nice, will recommend you what to buy, esp if you are a first time parent & feeling lost. My husband went on his own on a weekday, no crowd.
