thanks all for the advice. Zac's red spots on his legs and arms are all gone now.

All the babies look so cute. I like the group baby pic.

re: spotting during earliy pregnancy
I had spotting and sudden bleeding like menses flow ard 7-8 weeks time. I tot that's it I'm gg to lose the baby rushed to KK and after they did some check, said baby is ok, ordered bed rest and gave me 2 weeks MC. I was given oral hormones medicine to stabilise pregnancy and also a weekly jab of progesterone until week 14 or 16 (can't remember).

re: teething
baby gets especially cranky during teething isit? How long is it gg to last...this Zac keeps waking up at night to latch on, he can wake up at 11pm, 1am, 4am, 5am, 6am. this has been gg on for the last 2 weeks. I'm very very tired liao.
 
hi tingting,
if you'll feel overwhelmed when you're home alone especially at night, best to go over your mom's place as its not so lonely (people to talk with).

my hubby always travel, so I can understand your situation.
 
Hi mummies

wah so cute, all the babies! especially the group pic with all the strollers...btw, anyone using maclaren techno xt? mine doesn't come with a stroller bar lei, cannot attach toys in front..any idea if they have additional accessories like stroller bar to purchase? my girl's stroller looks so bare...only can hang toys at the side
 
re - swimming

when you bring your bb for swimming, how do you bath him or her har? me thinking of bringing my girl to our country club for swimming, but i dunno how am i going to bathe her lei..carry her and stand in the shower and rinse together, then come home then do a more thorough cleaning? she doesn't know how to stand unsupported yet..
 
i'm a mummy, zephan's stroller even more bare, got nothing! haha.. other than being lazy to clean his toys, we thought it's better that he observes the surroundings instead of playing with his toys all the time. I'll just standby a cloth book with a velcro strap in my bag in case he's really bored.

re: swimming
hmm, haven't considered the bathing part, cos the only time he swam was at seabreeze's condo.. :p but we can prob use the shower stand that adults use before they go into the pool? just to wash off some of the chlorine. the clean parent can take over to wipe him dry and dress him.
 
eileen, oic. mine is d other way round. my mum kept asking me 2 start my boy on porridge when he's 4mo.

ting, if tt's d case, mayb u wanna shift back 2 ur mum's plc. at least u gt an extra pair of hands 2 help u.

small bell, tks 4 d pics. it looks as if u gals had fun.

zac, yes, bb will b veri cranky when they r teething. it usually lasts til all their teeth hv grown out. bt it aso depends on d bb. 4 mine, thk god his crankiness cease when his 1st tooth came out.

i'm a mummy, hey i m using d techno xt aso. tink thr's tis stroller toy which we can attach 2 our strollers. d pic is as follows:
http://www.tinylove.com/toy.aspx?toyId=59 bt hor, i hv oni seen it at bb hyperstore. so i hvn't gt a chance 2 buy it yet. as 4 bathing after swimming, u can bath jasmin in d bathrm. wear ur swimsuit when u bath her, after u hv finished, then u can pass her 2 ur hb 2 dress her.
 
re: swimming

I've brought bb Kai swimming 2 more times other than at Seabreeze's house.

What i did is carry him to the shower and soap his back and bum and legs, then wash these areas. Then turn to the front, soap his front, then rinse these areas. Then put him on the bench, dry him and put on his diapers and clothes.

Super troublesome, especially when he's cranky during the dressing up.
But so far, i still feel that it's worth it. Hee... like to bring him swimming. But haven't been swimming since the HFMD going around.
 
wow the baby group photo looks great.

i'm a mummy, my baby stroller is also bare. nothing on it as I want her to take note of the surrounding.

I tried putting on a toy .. when she get bored with the toy, she start to make noise.. worse for me..
 
tingting/zaczac:
elizabeth has been waking up quite often the past 2-3 weeks (abt 2-4 times per night). At first i just tolerated it and attributed it to teething or just simply crazy behaviour. But since last week, i started to implement the CIO (Cry-it-out) method again while putting her to bed and surprisingly, after that, she kind of slept thru every night.. altho some nights, she still wakes up once but quite easy to go back sleep. I just stuff the bottle water into her mouth, she suck suck, drink and then i just pat her for 1 minute and then she goes back to sleep. Don't even need to carry her to sleep! Try it.

I read that teething does not cause babies to wake up at night. It's probably they dunno how to sooth themselves to sleep when they wake up so they cry and expect us to sooth them to sleep (either latch or carry or pat etc). So i guess if we let them cry-it-out, they learn how to self-soothe themselves to sleep so when they wake up, they can go back to sleep on their own.

But teething does cause our babies to be more moody...

tingting:
how do i pay u the money for the nan-2? Can send me yr bank account no?
 
anissa:
thanks for the toys!! I let elizabeth try the mickey mouse walker and she was smiling from ear to ear.. so excited.

re:zoo
the trip was fun and we manage to catch one animal show. But after the show, it started to rain, so we left.

anissa,
any special discount for going up the hot air balloon?
 
ineedmilk, u can pass the amt to wendy when u meet her, no hurry..

re: sleeping
yeah, yest night zephan slept through again at 8pm! hope he doesn't go back to the waking days. i thought he could be overly tired the past few days cos we've been bringing him out, or he had played too hard during the day. i thought the gina ford schedule doesn't really suit zephan well. the schedule said the last nap should end by 2pm, and baby sleeps by 7pm. zephan can only sleep earliest by 8pm, cos i've got to pick him up from work. funny thing is, he slept better at night when my parents put him down for a nap in the evening. he can sleep from 6-7pm, and then through the night from 8pm! amazing...
 
samantha, if u want, i can sell u the swimsuit for $15. my hb prefers for zephan to swim with just the swim diapers, and zephan himself doesnt seem to really like the suit anyway

hi smallbell,
Just curious to know how are the bb's response to the zoo &amp; animals.. Were they amazed?
i guess those bb who played with pets might be more at ease..eg magan

hi mummies,
Anyone got the similac rubber bear but don't want it can give it to me? If yes can PM me and I'll see if it's possible to pick it up. Thanks

cakey ...

my verdict is that they are abit too young to appreciate the zoo cos half the time they dunno what we are pointing at hahahaha ... at least for YC lar ... he was giving me a black face like:' why u bring me to such a hot and smelly place'

but i think its just the idea of bringing them there and exposing them to a different environment lar ... otherwise our bb will only know home and shopping ctr
 
hi seabreeze,
I'm thinking of bring bb to botanic garden cos she's fasinated with flowers hehe.. any things with flower prints she'll want to touch it and she'll smile when doing so...
 
i've been showing zephan pics of animals at home from time to time, so e.g. when i pointed out a cat to him on the streets he sort of recognises it. it's a bit hard for him to associate dogs though, cos dogs outside tend to bark while mine doesn't! hahaha...

cakey, i have the bear u mentioned.. aiyah, already sent out ur socks, else can mail together.. :p let me know if u want me to mail to u? cos u have some "excess postage value" left...
happy.gif
 
hi tingting,
Thanks
happy.gif
Btw. when you mail out the socks.. not yet arrive.. maybe postman busy sending GE cards heheh..
I think the bear can't be slotted inside the mailbox right? Maybe wait till there's gathering again then I get from you hehe..
 
Peeling stickers
Did you realised your kids started to peel stickers off their toys??The toy panels has bear stickers on it and he tore it off!I remembered when I was like a few years old I love to do that too but Anton alrady started like when he is only barely 8mths!!Is he a destructive baby in the making????arghh
 
triniti, zephan also did that to his exersaucer! i must say he's quite good at peeling them off, cos there's no sticky white remains on the exersaucer after the whole thing is off.. he doesn't rip them, but slowly edging them off the toy.. :p

cakey, ok i'll reserve it for u then.

re: birthday party
remember our talk about having a mega celebration? i was wondering whether we can just book a function room at someone's condo and have a cosy party there. (of course i was thinking of seabreeze's place.. haha!) Date-wise, how about children's day on 1 Oct? All babies would have celebrated their birthdays by then. Even though my boy would already be 14 months by then, i'm sure he won't mind another party!
happy.gif


for zephan's own party, i've already booked aloha changi. tried to get the loyang one, but it was fully booked. now trying to decide on cake n catering. anyone knows which cake shop does Pooh designs other than Bengawan Solo?
 
Ting2,
That was fast! So which changi chatlet u book?

RE: Tearing paper
My gal luv to tear tissue paper! She can throw away the small bits &amp; continue tear the bigger piece. Very messy...
 
cat_tail, can't remember, cos my MIL booked on our behalf. think it's a fairy point bungalow or the yacht club chalet.. near the changi sailing club area. If u want to book better do it fast.. for my dates there were only a few units available. a lot were "unavailable"..

at least ur gal throws the paper away... mine will want to stuff it into his mouth!

hi JT, thanks! i was looking for pooh designs cos thought my boy looks v "pooh bear".. hehe.. but saw e website also does carebears, so that's an option too!
 
re: Party

Hmmm a Children's Day Party sounds fun ... maybe we just make it a Children's Day Party lar ... cos abit funny to celebrate bday when all their bday are over right??

you all prefer 30 sept or 1 oct??

i can try to get the function room at my place ... let me know lar ...
 
here's to start the ball rolling...
happy.gif

cakey,
agree wz seabreeze, zoo is too young for our children. Perhaps after one yr old will be better.

anissa,
thanks alot for the coupon discount and enjoy your taiwan trip. Tell us more when you return.
