Long time no log on. hope that everybody is doing well with motherhood.
Jenifur,
hope you have recovered. I too fell ill, think some how after 1 month confinement, the body some how cannot take heaty/bu food.
appreciate your help in updating my gal's stats :
at birth : 3.3kg / 50 cm
at 1 mth : 4.7kg / 56.5cm
Thanks.

Depends on whether bride/groom allow kids at wedding or not.. we had a wedding last mth, they specified no kids so didn't bring her. Another one coming up, they say can so we're bringing her. just remember to bring extra to keep warm cos' those hotels can sometimes b v cold!

Ruff,
I didn't abstain from any of the food u listed.. I take 1 cup of coffee every morning n one cup of tea around 5plus in the evening.. coke only as n when and garlic probably all the time. Y is garlic not allowed??
CM - Coffee CLub so small - can they seat so many of us ?.. for Marche, i thot at least there's a wide variety for Mummies to choose from mah, and the place is big enuf for prams etc.. either suntec/heeren is ok i believe. anyway just a sugg.. the aug/sep thread moms went to Taka's breeks (lvl 5).

Fun,
i not very consistent in bfing one, most often fm for my gal. But i gonna try the OTO Trimax, hopes it will help.
Kuririn,
I let my bb sleep on her tummy.... old people will advise that, they said their children all sleep like that, then bb will not feel scared.
And really, my baby tends to sleep longer in that way.

kuririn: its not really due to colic then bb vomit milk out but rather its coz she is not burped properly.. try this.. after u burp her.. let her sit up for a while before laying her down onto the bed.. for colicky baby like mine.. he will keep on fussing until his stomach is not painful! and he will keep on crying.. so gotta carry him in such a way whereby his stomach is resting against mine!(tts what aug/sept mum taught me) and it works!
pammie: is Breeks good? Marche suntec?i think heeren better... if not Breeks oso ok. kekek..
Tao baby... lol.. no lah garlicf dun contribute to bad odour lahz. its the meat
Fun: likely to be a lunch or tea outing, dinner loads of ppl ard, and transport for many will be an issue.
Outing: Wednesday 16 Nov? ok with u all?

hmm.. true.. cos my girl very difficult to burp one.. sometimes can burp for half an hr still dun wan to burp.. sigh... my CL also taught me to hold her that way.. another way is to hold her in such a way that her head is on your shoulder and her tummy on your heart.. that way she will also calm down..

I am fine with any day for the outing.
I won't be driving, most probably carrying the bb in sarong. Btw, I oni noe how to carry my bb in sarong in one position i.e. the lying down position, in other words, i can oni free one hand, with the other hand supporting my bb's head. Am interested to learn the cradle position which I can free both hands. If anyone of u know how to do this, can teach me when we meet up?

Adel,
I will bring along my EBM. It's convenient to get hot water from the restaurant to warm the milk.
Sneaky,
Ya, we shall exchange tips on how to use the sarong.
How r u gng to bring along ur pram if u r not driving? Isn't it heavy and troublesome to carry the pram to take public transport?
Clarisse's mum,
I am fine with the timing and place. See u all then.
All,
When u r alone with the bb, do u have problem pushing ur pram up and down the escalator if the lift is not available? I am still not confident to do that leh. I am always afraid that the pram will topple down.

hi everyone,
Do you have problem with milk flow? i am very vex about my supply. anyone stopped feeding bm already?
i feel very useless if i cannot provide bm to my baby... my hubby is very supportive. i feel that i will fail him and baby if i dun feed bm anymore...
i am now expressing my milk for baby as she is not confused with my nipples and teats of bottles already. but my supply is getting lower and lower... feel like crying. Aye...

driving: erm.. yea.. i think its possible to leave him at the rear! after all.. its a safety infant car seat mah.. hiak hiak.. and must drive safely to be safe! jus make sure bb is fed le.. then let bb sleep during the car ride.. then he will look fresher.. and wun be so grumpy lor.. haha..
using the pram on escalator: its really easy.. so shouldn't cause a lot of problems.. just hang on to the pram tight!
ling: nursary room is on the 3rd floor.. so.. its really convenient! am bring my breasts along! haha... dun have ebm.. and will bring milk formula as well.. coz he is always less patient on latching on.. so.. i will latch him on after feeding him milk formula! hiak hiak.. half half!

i also have low BM ss. Now i latch Brennan during day time as and when he wants. sometimes until evening time bo supply, he will cry and cry. then i will supplement with FM. And next feed will try to latch him and if not enough, another FM top up. Max FM supplement is 2x.
Kuririn
I used to pump and latch when CL is here. But now, no time at all to pump. Unless i feel engorged. Now that i'm also latching him for last feed and wee hours feeding, no more engorgement.
Mayday,
Brennan also had that white spot. My MIL said its like ulcer, cos we didnt clean probably so caused by the milk. She actually use hanky and rub that two spots to "break" it and let it heal. Of course got blood lor. Now ok liao. so i make sure i really clean his mouth as clean as i can now. But if u afraid, can bring to PD to see what they can do for your boy. MIL said its like ulcer so sometimes when drinking milk, may cause pain lor.

Mummies who had CL help, then cant handle after CL left, decided to hire maid to help out.
Does it really help? Think me the next one to consider this option. Though MIL comes to help everyday, i have to do the rest of the stuff which i have it very tiring. MIL does the cooking usually.
Any maid agency to recommend. What are the charges like har? Maybe can post here or email to me at [email protected]

I know what u are going through. Brennan also super impatient one. he will latch and unlatch many times when my milk flow is slow. bo bian lor, gotta fight with him....
Adel
u also got maid hor. she does cooking? And she washes all BB's clothes as well? How much agency fee did u pay and how much is her salary. Sorry me ignorant when it comes to maids.
Currently i have those part time cleaner to come twice a month (used to be once a month) to clean my house. But its still the daily washing of me and hubby's clothings as well as bb's clothings after each change. its so tiring.
Huh, my maid wont be able to help me feed BB cos me on BF heehee. think night time i will also feed him. Btw, so your maid sleep in one room? or she sleeps with BB. I only got one extra room which is the nursery room. really sim tia if let maid sleep alone
But i dont think i will let BB sleep with maid at night. Currently me sleeping with BB in nursery and hubby in masterbedroom.
Btw, anyone knows that if we hire the maid, and wants her to do housework at another location (eg. inlaw house at times), we can tell agent and how much extra do we need to pay har?

ssl: yea.. she does cooking and general household cleaning thingy.. of course she washes bb clothes as well.. i think her best trait would be washing of clothes.. i have got so many pieces of stained clothes.. which i wanted to throw away.. she actually managed to wash them all clean. haha.. erm.. i paid 88 bucks for agency fee.. one time only. so now.. paying 200 levy and 350 her pay. tts about how much i spend on her monthly. erm.. of course tt doesn't include her living expenses.. her toiletries and etc.
my maid sleeps by herself.. coz bb is sleeping with me. dun think i will let her sleep with bb.. coz i want bb to be close to me mah.. haha..
and alsoo.. for the maid doing housework in other household is definitely not allowed. even if u pay her extra. it is against the law.. unless u are really tt good with her.. or rather trust her.. coz if things turn sour.. and she goes complaining about u guys.. she can always say tt u guys made her clean 2 household!then u will be in serious trouble le.

Re: BF, during my first week after coming home from the hospital, I was also stressed because the baby refused to latch on. I tried to pump as much as I could, but the supply was really dwindling because of the stress. The more stressed you are, the worse the supply is. Therefore, try to relax and let the baby suckle. Otherwise there will be no let-down and the milk will not flow. Very very important to relax and not get stressed up.

i thought i saw it somewhere that as long as we include the other household address in the application (then its known to the agency but must pay abit higher la), its ok. maybe i misunderstand.
