Either grind the rice into powder then cook or cook rice then blend, like you did. I doubt so little can eat rice bits leh.

Hmmm how do we tell avocado is ripe or not from inside? I follow the guideline share by mummies here to choose avocado from it appearance. But I'm not too sure did I pick the correct one. The first time I bought I need to cut around the seed to open it up, the second time I bought, my knife cut through the seed into half... hmmm why like that? Avocado noob here

Thanks for the link. How do u know the zip is side opening? I can't find it in the description except concealed back zip I know cannot buy...
Those who have daughters the petite matching dresses are so cute!
Sorry somehow I cannot paste the photos.
Only this design is suitable :
Savannah Orient In FlowerPower
Beautifully crafted in a modern day cut that can be worn for work or play. A flattering shift day style made with timeless chinese collars, short sleeves and detailed side zip in stunning oriental scrapbook like flowers, inked bright pink on a light pastel blush, complimented with minty petals. Did we mention it’s no coincidence its just perfect for nursing mums as well? J
Crafted with a side pocket, fully lined, not sheer.
Made of non stretch cotton
Model is a UK 6/8, 165cm, wears M for this piece
Ripe avo will hv nice and soft green flesh. Skin is brown. Texture is like butter just taken out from fridge. If unripe, the skin is green and flesh will b quite hard.
Ntuc selling avos from Mexico, 3 in a pack for 4 + bucks. It comes with pictorial illustration teaching us how to tell the ripeness from skin colour.

I think someone asked about crawling. This is what my Husband and I did when we saw baby trying very hard to move ard. We basically guided her by counting 1-2-3-4 while we bend her right knee, left knee , right knee left knee. We tried to show her that she needs moves her knees to get going.
Later on, she begins to tuck her knees to her stomach. This is when we showed her must coordinate with her arms. So we did 1-2-3-4 complete suite with legs and arms. Somehow my girl got it, especially after we adults demonstrate to her how to crawl on the bed. It sent her giggling. Lol
And now she is moving ard like nobody business. Sometimes she does complete flip cycle (with back thrust fall) and face glide motion to get to her destination.
Today I noticed that her knees and butt are Super high liao. I am waiting to witness the day she sits up by herself.

I think KWL Jr v athletic ley!! Bubbles last 2 weeks refused to flip :-/ and she only today then finally eat her toes haha. Wind up being her obsession for today. But before that, she did do a leopard crawl impression during morning tummy time, complete with arm shuffle. And without pointers cos mama dunno how to teach her, seeing as how uncoordinated I myself am XD managed to move forward, but jin lazy. Only if my feet were there for her to push forward with
But I'm happy to report that she is making headway in mimicking sounds, and discovered that she loves babbling along when I read out loud the novel I borrowed from the library last week!! Definitely more fun than a furby XD though I should be more careful about my book choices, it was a Stephen King novel.. .

Haha! Need to acquire a taste for avocado, otherwise it does taste nasty. Now I love it, have it in sandwiches, with scrambled egg, on its own etc.I'm going to the baby fair to get a playmat and some baby food to prepare for the upcoming trip.

Found these in blw grps:Mummies, when do we intro meat (like fresh fish)? So far it's vegetarian meals. Fish porridge also blend ah? Like quite erxin like that
For traditional Chinese I think they usually cook 午鱼 （threadfin) porridge right. But some ppl say don't intro seafood or meat too early or else the taste v strong, either bb reject or love it too much haha. I also not sure. Seems western guidelines vary considerably from Asian diet.

Hmmm my mum never blend the porridge, she cook it longer and it become sticky type. So far emk jr having porridge and skip one bottle of milk.
Not erxin, quite nice leh I find. I share my previous experience: For each meal, I use a pc of small pc of fish (depends on what you like, usual ones are threadfin, cod fish, salmon), size is a square of approx 2-3 cm). Cook the pc of fish with the porridge, add whatever veg you like (eg carrot, pumpkin, broccoli, baby spinach). When it's cooked, take out the fish and mash it up finely carefully checking for bones, I use fingers to do it so no bones can escape). Stir into porridge and feed.Mummies, when do we intro meat (like fresh fish)? So far it's vegetarian meals. Fish porridge also blend ah? Like quite erxin like that
I started fish and meat after 8 mths, can't remember why, probably read that baby may not be ready before that eg allergies. When even older, I added tomato and home made ikan bilis powder into porridge to give more flavour.
Once we start fish, beware of super smelly poo

Thanks mummies for sharing!
@snowfern those pics are very useful. Saved. Yay thanks.
@tuna I also screen shot your post Yes you remember right that I make rice powder but I was thinking for fish, no matter how I cook or manual-mesh, can't achieve purée state right? But then like you said, 8mo then start fish then I think no need so puréed by then.
For now, she still prefers very puréed texture. So even if I intro say baby spinach now, still need to blend?

I don't know, I've never used a blender for baby food, very traditional one, haha! I remember chopping up the baby spinach before cooking, and I also grated it in the bowl before feeding so it's smoother.Thanks mummies for sharing!

Actually baby spinach is already very soft after cooking, my feel is don't need to blend.
Mine too.. still prefer purée state. Dun think she can take a slight bit of grainy feel stuff. She will give me the vomit look. Maybe give her more time to learn ba. I'm still giving butternut squash twice a day. Sometimes I mixed avocado into it. I stopped my porridge coz she doesn't really like it.. coz after mixing it with the butternut squash, it tends to cover the sweetness of the butternut squash. I'm still trying to figure out how to improve on her constipation condition.
Yup I'm trying to make her drink more water now. She doesn't seems to drink a lot of water coz I intro water quite late to her since she is taking Bm exclusively. I'm so desperate till I go n buy glucose powder and mix into the plain water hoping that she will take more water. Hopefully that helps

Mine still poo once or twice a day. With solid, her poo texture is rather creamy. Like her purée. Lol.
I just brought her to supermarket in a ring sling. To n fro at least 20mins walk not counting the shopping time. I'm home and omg my back aches man. My sis has warned me because the sling is one sided so weight is not fairly distributed. With ergo baby don't have such issue. But good thing about this sling I got has light thin material and she doesn't sweat that much.

I've no idea but I show you the pic. This is passdown. I really didn't do much research on baby wearing. Just trial n error whatever others passed to me.
For this one, when my gal was little, I rolled a thicker towel n let that be her seat. It works very well.

Oh I see...I can't tell much. Lol. Anyway, going to try on Erin. Then no need push pram anymore.
Today went to ifc to submit documents some more I bought baby Erin with me. See so many babies and the ifc she is going is 1 teacher to 3 babies. See 3 babies cry and teacher trying to handle. See already so heart pain. Wonder when Erin enter and she keep on crying how? Like so poor thing. Then I keep carry baby Erin and look at her.

Hugs. The anxiety is real. I cried so hard before even enrolling her. But trust that it'll get better.
Now my baby comes home always happy. Maybe got many babies to play with. Not that she is big enough to physically play with the korkors and jiejies. But I know she enjoys watching other kids play. Baby going to ifc will also learn to self soothe better.
With ring sling, I find it less taxing if I put her in hip carry position. The cradle position super siong on shoulder!

Yes cherish every moment As for routine, actually don't worry too much. The nannies/teachers there are experienced enough to catch baby cues. My gal somehow drinks more sleeps more there (well according to the records. Ha unless they anyhow write). And baby Erin is still little...she will easily fit into the class culture in no time. She will be fine!
