Hi! Is it common for BF-ing babies to reduce their milk intake before a growth spurt? My Son is going to be 12 weeks next week (when 3 month spurt is due to happen), but since week 10 has been only drinking foremilk. He isn't drinking as long as he used to and his poos have been green for over...

Stress and worry can delay your periods, so try not to do those unnecessarily. Sometimes a hormonal imbalance can delay your period (completely normal) or this could be a longer cycle than usual. It's completely normal for periods to be late by a couple of days (up to a week). If you're...

Tell your wife not to worry and stress unnecessarily, not good for her and more so for the baby! I'm sure everything is ok, early days yet...you won't see that little head, hands and feet bobbing up and down until a few more weeks pass. Look after your wife, and all the best with the next...

Completely normal, she is still in the early stages. You would have seen the sack yesterday and won't see the fetus developing with obvious features after 10 weeks or in the early 2nd trimester. Not to worry ;) Suggest you download the 'baby centre' app or sign up on their website...

Maybe you can contact "Human Milk 4 Human Babies"? They have a FB page.

Yes, growing up around family is important! Both my husband and I have all our family back in Australia, and we miss them. But the experience we have had so far in SGP has been amazing and we are so grateful for that. Going back for Christmas and the new year break, so we are all excited...

I think we might most likely move back to Australia in time for LO to start pre-school and continue his education there. Have been living in Australia/NZ for over 20 years and the education system there is a little on the easier side. Although kids here must get the best education through all...

Heard of it, but haven't considered it for LO. I'm sure it is worthwhile if you want to ensure child reaches milestones at the right time :)

I'm an Australian expat working here in Singapore :) it is a little more layed back and relaxed where I come from, education isn't as competitive as it is here in Asia (but growing). Playing outside has reduced significantly over the years, regardless of where we are in the world, as kids get...

The results were sent to my gynae directly in only a few days (3/4) and he gave me a call to say that there was nothing abnormal/unusual they have identified and that we can discuss in more detail at the next check up. The scan basically checks to see whether there are any physical abnormalities...

Totally agree with you! Not condoning anyone's parenting techniques because different things work for different people, but let kids be kids! Let them run around, enjoy the fresh air and get a little dirty! Look at our generation and before! We turned out alright, without these enrichment...

Not a female Gynae but mine does deliver at PEH and is located there too: Dr Denas Chandra $700 for package from ~13 weeks (inc urine tests, ultra sound, and vitamins) Exc. DHA tablets Gentle, understanding and very personable. He encourages natural delivery but is realistic also and suggests...

I used the same brand, tested once and got the same results...now I have an adorable 2 month old! Check with your dr if you aren't certain.. Congrats and welcome to parenthood! Good luck, its a wonderful journey :)

I have the Mimco baby bag and it holds both my baby and I's entire life! Lots of compartments, durable, inc. changing mat and wet bag

I have attached a copy of the estimated costs related to the Gynae I delivered with earlier above, take a look
