Wow! The thread I started is really alive! Great to see that many mums are sharing tips. Think Lani is the guru here. But it's kinda hard reading now. How come must scroll left and right? Lani - Have PM you.

hi lani thanks so much for info above. currently, my gal is taking very little milk. she is turning 7 mths soon but drinking between 400ml-500ml in the daytime. I bf her when i go home. She takes lunch (cereal with carrot cube, pumpkin cube and 2 cubes of avocado). She dislikes sweet potato...

Hi there It's been a while since i logged on. Thanks for advice. Krazy - My baby getting better at swallowing now but it's still a super messy affair! Princessar - Got mine at Brown Rice Paradise. You can try Healthy Time Brown Rice Cereal too. Daphne - Would you have time to share the...

after 2 weeks, baby swallowing not great, always seems as if everything spills out or gets spat out. is this normal?

baby 5.5 mths old. just started her on solids 2 weeks back. currently giving her earth's best brown rice cereal & sweet potato. strangely, she shudder/spasm when she tasted sweet potato and banana. is it because it's too sweet? besides cereal & sweet potato, what other foodstuff...

Hi, need advice pls... I'll be returning to work when baby turns 6 months in October and am not sure if I should continue bfg. Currently, I latch baby on all the time. My workplace is 1.5-2hrs away from where I live and I also have problems with letdown. Mummies who are expressing and working...

Hiya Tigger88 Read from other thread that your boy is taking more milk. That's great! My girl (coming 4 mths end next week)still not taking much milk, at most 80ml-90ml and then she dozes off. Sigh... Concerned about weight gain but she's still alert, active and loves rolling over.

hi forgetmenot If your massaging does not work, suggest you go to TMC and see Mrs Wong. She'll definitely massage away those blocked ducts for you. Don't wait too long.

Hi CG Who can resist ben & jerry's and pringles? :P But I take wall's mini conettos. I get the joy of eating ice cream but in mini portions. Heh. My daughter rejects her milk too, like your Faith, she slept throught from 11-ish to 8-ish this morning! Worry, worry too.But I figured babies...

Hi CG A bit of junk food does no harm to little Faith, extra calories probably all goes to you! :P Hope you're not eating one tub of ben & jerry's and one tube of pringles daily! No need to berate yourself lah! Everything in moderation should be fine (even pringles).

Hi CG My PD mentioned that an average baby should double his/her weight by 4 months so it seems like your little Faith should be alright. Did your PD address your concern? Babies fed on breastmilk tend not to put on as much weight as babies on formula. Babies grow and develop at their own...

Hi Krazy I bought my pump for SGD280 in April but from thread above, apparently price increased to SGD290. You can call Euramedic at 68447717.

Hi Joshmummy Little one asleep now so have time to type. No, I'm not a SAHM. My daughter too has cried until she choked herself. As a mummy, it's an awful feeling to watch your tiny one cry like that but not know how to console her. You're not alone. We do have the problem whereby she cries...

hi joshmummy i know how you feel. There are times there is an overwhelming urge to shut her in the cupboard. Last Saturday, my girl wailed and wailed. Tried everything too. In the end, husband and i took turns to carry her and walk around until 3am. She only stopped wailing when we walk about...

Hi JoshMummy I had the same problem, actually still have this problem on and off. Could be because joshua needs to be burped. Gas in tummy making him very feel uncomfortable.
