Poohy,
i've open yet as the baby's room still in a little mess. wait til my hubby is free to do some shifting. But i touch the texture. quite ok.
sgmom,
consume within 2 weeks for frozen EBM? that's fast. maybe i'll keep for one month hehe..btw, can u smell milk that turn bad and milk that is fresh? i can't smell the diff.
i can't go without breastpad. once i tried and my shirt is wet with one big patch. i also hope to go padless to reduce the rash i have now.
jas03,
thanks for the contact. I already started the tingkat and guess what it's the same caterer as yours. my friend recom this caterer to me. guess the food must be not too bad. but so far i like the spread and the portion is good also.
zyp,

understand how u feel. my girl also very CRANKY sometimes. I scold her 'naughty girl' but i think she don;t understand lar. no choice got to carry her and walk around. anything to calm her down i'll also try. some people say it's a passing phase. I just hope it's true..
forgetmenot,
don't stress yourself. if really no milk yet then go with FM. that's what i did with my girl at first week. slowly when the milk comes in u can increase BM feeds. sometimes when i was tired i told CL to give her FM. now i'm on TBF. don't give up..as for crying for no reason, i had a bit too. i realise i was frustrated because i can't do many things then i jsut go and bathe and washed hair. after that i feel better haha. i'm not telling u to break confinement rules but just do something that will lighten your mood maybe helps ya?

Twinkets: Yep your memory is good. From GNC, a giant green bottle. $36.95 for 90 tablets of 600mg of calcium. The taste is ok but not fantastic. It has a natural cherry flavor.
Actually i still have quite a lot left, maybe ard 2/3. i dun mind giving to you if you dun mind.
Cos i very lazy unless need be, i dun take supplements. i hardly take the fish oil nowadays though still pumpg also.

Btw mummies on baby's poo.. those babies with constipation, i think it may really help to massage their tummy.
i went MAH's baby massage class last Sat. During the class, Isabelle poo-ed. Heh so effective? Coincidental? Then for the past 4 days, she pooed everyday. It has been quite sometime since she has been so regular. i'm quite excited abt this. Funny hor, baby pass motion also so happy.
But sigh recently her reflux "came back" again, merlion quite a lot of milk sometimes. And make me quite "angry" sometimes. And hence bad rashes come back also even cleaning her after each feed.

Ming: if ur BB has a tendency to spit out alot of milk, it's good to try to burp her more frequently during feed. After e feed, rest her for like 5-10mins in a recline position (ard 30degrees) before burping her to discourage milk from coming out together w e air bubble. After burping, continue to rest her in a recline position for anotr 5-10mins.
My girl is like that also. Esp if she drinks very fast, she has a high tendency to "merlion". Funny thing I didnt tell my hubby abt this pharse we use.. he actually used it on Valerie that nite when she throw out 1 gulp of milk when he burp her. It was a huge burp & a big gulp of milk being thrown out
MAH BB massage class: Is it FOC? Do that have it every weekend? I always wanted to massage my BB but it's hard to find the right timing. She doesnt like pple to disturb her one. Only when she is wide awake & happy can u then change her diaper, bathe her & wipe her without her screaming. THus most of the time I have to tahan her cries when I change her diaper.

LV,
I remember I bought mine @ $8.90 too... bought the first batch at Kids Mall at 9+ after the 20% discount, tot I found a good buy, then I saw the cheaper ones, luckily not much difference lah.
Mummies,
Recently when my boy drinks milk, after drinking about 50-60ml, he will suck but not drinking. After awhile he'll reject the bottle. We have to rest him awhile, burp him, carry him walk one round then he'll resume drinking. His intake is 120ml every 3hrs.
He does the same at my breast also... suck awhile then suck blankly cos I don't hear him swallow anymore. Then he'll start 'talking' to me. I treasure that moment cos it's our one and only private session every day.
Are your babies like that?
Re: rubbing eyes and suck fingers
He does that too! We let him go mittenless for a day and end up having a scratch on his face around the eye. He likes to rub eyes when he's frustrated or sleepy. He also loves to rub his whole face on our shoulders and neck region when we carry him upright! Haha... very endearing but we got to be sure we are not wearing necklace lor...
My boy's quite used to his pacifier. But in its abscence, I noticed he'll try to shove his fist into his mouth! Looks quite funny! haha... therefore his right mitten always smellier than the left one. I reckon he is right-handed.

zyp: same thing with my gal! THus I no longer wear necklace already. She also likes to rub eyes when she is sleep or frustrated. Last time she dunno how to rub properly always end up poking her eyes. Now better already, know how to use the back of her hands to rub eyes so hardly poke her own eyes now
As for sucking but not drinking.. only when she starts to feel full lor. And quite true that sometimes she'll just bite the teat & smile. hahaha.. she did that before when I latch her on.
Pacifier:
Tis morning something quite funny happened. Tis morning ard 5am she started fussing ard (but not time for milk yet coz she didnt cry). Rub eyes, stretch etc... so we fed up decided to place her inbtwn us so that it'll be easier to pat her to sleep. So my hubby gave her the pacifier. After a while my hubby realise that the pacifier is no longer in her mouth.. he started looking for it.. cldnt find so he woke me up. Nxt thing we realise the pacifier is in her hands! hahahaha I seriously dunno how e pacifier end up in her hands hahahaha we thot it's really funny.
Lack of sleep:
How does u mummies handle that ha.. everyday I basically only have 4hrs of continuous sleep. balance is a 15mins here, 30mins there.. so tiring. Tis morning also like that.. she kept fussing from 5am until 6am then I try to latch her on, but she is not hungry, e moment e milk comes she unlatch herself. Then I take the opportunity to change her diaper, after that she kept smiling while staring at the ceiling. Buay-tahan! My hubby & I just cldnt stop laughing.

zyp: my gal also same sleeping position, surrender one.. I say she makes the chinese character "BIG". hahahaha
Yup.. she clench her fist with her thumb inside. Actually to be exact, she likes to stick her thumb btwn the 2nd & 3rd finger. I say she likes to scold bad word hahahahaha

sgmom...
guess cant help with the lack of sleep but slowly they will hopefully grow out of all those nite feeds totally lor. My boy woke up twice yesterday nite .. 1am and 4am... its been 2 weeks since he last did that .. so i duno why.. hehe.. i am having giddy spells and at times blackout lately so after feeding him at 4am .. finally asked my hubby to watch over him while he stretch and rub his eyes for a while before falling asleep. Anyway i dunno if my boy is going to start to teeth or wat.. cos i notice he like to bite his pacifier using the side gums whenever i put it in his mouth. do u all think its a sign of teething ?
sgmom, that was really funny hehe.. imagine searching all over and finally the pacifier is all the time with your little gal.. btw, do u think its a problem that they hide their thumb inside their fist ? i dunno whether its normal ...

poohy: I also dunno if that's normal leh. I try to encourage her to stick out her thumb but she refuse leh. thus I always have a hard time trying to cut her thumb-nail.
Well I guess I just have to learn to live with e lack of sleep then. Like u sometimes I feel quite giddy also. partly also becoz I have been very diligent in taking my multi-vit.. so lack of iron. Sometimes I almost black out when I stand up abruptly. But I didnt tell anyone.. worried they all ask me to go sleep.. but I wan to take care of my girl leh... weird right.. can sleep dun wan to sleep.. want to sleep cannot sleep.. hahahahaha

sgmom,
ya lor .. my hubby always asked me to go to sleep earlier at nite so that i wont feel tired when i do nite feeds but i just dun want leh.. cos wanna play with my bb. I dun really wanna take the iron pills leh cos i scared constipation .. cos i heard taking iron pills can cause constipation.

sgmom: Tks, i'll try to rest baby for a while b4 i burp and see if it works. i always hold her for 5-10min before puttg her down after a feed.
The massage class is abt $30+ for 45 min. It's held once a mth like TMC. KK has more frequent classes. Most hosp. charge ard the same. Actually most of the strokes we can learn from internet. But in class got real live demo and hands-on, maybe more effective.
Heh i also caught Isabelle a few times removing her pacifier herself with her hands. But she hasn't really learn how to hold objects in her hands.
sweatcorn: Wah ur baby is v cute and progressively getting fatter, heh. My baby is getting fatter too and think she's 6+kg liao, my mum says she needs to go on a diet, ha ha.
zyp: i enjoy it when Isabelle coos and talks to me also. Heh. On being mitten-free, think dun be afraid to let babies go mitten-free. Initially they'll scratch themselves, but after a few times (days), they're smart enuff to stop scratching themselves.

poohy: I wld love to sleep earlier but I have to express milk at ard midnite so tt I can avoid having to express in e middle of the nite. So always try to nap abit at ard 10pm if my hubby is back home and when I'm damn tired.
Ming: OIC, I'll go check out. I also have pamplets showing how to massage BB but i thot maybe seeing live demo might be more effective.
Actually my PD recommend that she rest her like 30mins before putting her back to bed..but at nite how to?!?!? During e day no issue coz she spends most of her time in e bouncer which is at like 30 degrees angle anyway.
Zyp: Ming is right, at the beginning when I let Valerie go mitten free she always poke her own eyes. My MIL will quickly wear back her mittens. but normally I'll let her be but constantly remove her hands & tell her "dun poke ur eyes". Now she hardly pokes her eye liao.. but sometimes she'll mis-cue & still poke them la hahahahaha
BBs learn very fast one la. Dun worry. Even if they do scratch themselves, they'll heal in no time with no scars one.. so dun be too worried. Just make sure that their hands are clean or else worried they LS

Hi gals, thanks for your compliment...
my boy started wif eating the side of his thumb, like eating drumsticks... then slowly progress to suckling his thumb... but he has not really got used to suckling wif his fist clenched... so sometimes he'll poke himself in the eye n started screaming... sometimes oso got co-ordination problems n can't find his thumb then will oso scream vv loud... very amusing 2 c him screaming for his thumb... aahahaha...
ming, yes he is getting fatter, he gained abt 2kg in his 1st mth n my pd say he has to go gym to work off the extra weight gained.. ahahaha... next sat its his mth 3 check up so i wonder how much he has gained...
sgmon n poohy, i guess everyone of us here oso suffering from lack of sleep... its part of the package call 'parenthood'... same as u both, basically got oni less than 3 hrs of continuous sleep... very tiring at first... now kinda got used to it... recently my boy can sleep 4-5 hrs before he screams for his feeds at night but i will still wake up at 3 hrs interval to check on him...

I feel like I just did chemotherapy... everytime i touch my hair and comb a little at least a handful of hair fall off... so scary cos i already have very thin layer of hair genetically... now wah ... i fear for my hair...

hahah sometimes BB very funny hor.. my girl also sometimes attempt to suck her thumb end up poking her own eyes.. so continue to suck her finger. Like ur Boi, she started sucking e knuckles.. then progress to put the finger into her mouth to suck.
tis morning I dangle e teething/rattle rings in front of her..she was looking at them & seemed to enjoy e sound it make. As I was expressing milk, I got tired and place e rattles down.. she immediately frown & "aaa!" loud loud. so i started shaking e rattles again.. she smile again.. so I knw she was "unhappy" that I took away her rattles! hahahahha

not all babies are chubby. Keane for one is not. He is not drinking as much milk as I want him to..So stress...and he is not gaining enuff weight. Really dunno what's wrong with him. He still fuss a lot when feeding. It's like going to battle everytime I feed him...sigh.
Brought him to see PD and doc at polyclinic. Both says he's ok and said I shouldn't be too worried since he is alert and not ill.
<font color="ff6000">Stephy,</font>
wow, your Aaron is so chubby. And he is drinking a lot of milk. Keane drinks abt 120-150ml. I force feed him every 3-4hrs. Didnt want to force him at first but he doesnt cry for food nowadays...can even stretch for 4-5hrs without milk. BTW, I have bought the milk bags that you've recommended. Thanks.
I am feeling so tired. Not enuff sleep. Feel so sleepy at work. Expressed twice in office. The nuring room in my office is not bad. There are 3 cubicles with curtains and a mini fridge to store EBM.

sgmom,
for my boy, my hubby will say it's "Tai"... cos boy mah.. something extra... hahaha....
I thought the holding pacifier episode is really funny! haha... my boy will shove the pacifier back into his mouth when it's dropping. That's only when he sleeps on his tummy.
I guess sleep deprivation is inevitable for mummies with newborns. We'll have easier life when they learn to sleep thru'out the night. So far Zavier has only slept 6hrs stretch for 2 nights.
Once I had giddy spell too... also at pre-dawn hours, then got hubby to take over feeding. Also, baby sleeps with my parents and us on alternate days. So I get undisturbed sleep on every other day.

tigger : Sometimes it worries me too whether have I overfed him.. next week, he will be getting his 3rd month jap.. let's see what the PD will say abt his weight..
I can understand.. it must be very tiring for you.. nowadays, I will pump whenever aaron wakes up for his nite feeds.. luckily, my hubby will help me to feed him if not.. I'll be very grouchy I think.. How u find the bag? economical enuf..

re : breastpumps
gals... just wanna check whether u all got any comments on the electric breastpump which one is good... eg btween ameda and medela ? I keep hearing ameda breastpump is gentler on the nipple and almost like the medela pump in style .. was thinking maybe i will change to ameda next time when i have my next bb.... cos i was using medela dual mini this time round...

tigger, your office so good leh... nursing room even better than the shopping centres one...
poohy, i juz got my ameda pump... its true that it is more gentle on the nipple than the medela mini i used last time... much quieter too... of cos much cheaper than pump in style... however i feel that the plastic parts of the ameda pump seems less lasting than medela's one... that's my own opinion lah...

poohy,
ameda pump is definitely better for me. medela is good with suction but can be quite harsh to the nipple. but my colleague who use it is fine depends on individual.
sgmom,
whenever i get 4 hours of cont. sleep i'll be very happy! initially i try to sleep with mygirl in the afternn when she sleeps but now i go and do housechores and only sleep at night when she sleeps. So on average about 5 hours per day. i don't really ask my hubby to take care of her at night as i know he's very tired after working. so i stay up at night sometimes if she's cranky. very tired...but part of parenthood.
