huh? My PD only told us he's average size never say which percentile. Maybe she think & know we v kanchiong abt our bb wt coz my bb birth wt is only 2.74kg . Maybe I go & check the chart later on the bb health book. Mine also active but he usu naps shortly after each feed.

Since you have tried that 2 veg before, I dont think it will be a problem. If you are afraid, introduce lesser tsp first.
san
how long u cook? soak ah? dont think mil will remember to do it. normally i cook the porridge for 2hrs on high heat. not sure how long mil cook though.

Brennan also faced constipation problem after starting solids. Try to make him drink more water lor. cos it really helps somehow. if your BB dont want to drink through bottle and teat, try feeding with spoon. Brennan also dont like bottle when drinking plain water, so i've learn to use spoon to feed him. at times, he can take 30ml.
jenifur,
no problem. oh janelle sick ah.. hope she's better. if there are people to share the same item as what i'm ordering, then i can cut my order to lesser pieces. just pm me la. u got my HP bo?

featherG, i bought the vapour rub for children to apply on his chest and a piece of tissue hung around his cot (near his face). alternatively, see a doctor and they would probably prescribe nose drop. samuel had blocked nose and the nose drop helped a lot in clearing it.

Hello tattybear
Welcome to u & your bb.
My Kaiser is also 6mois +. At first also clueless until find out from my parents & maid.
Here's a simple summary of how i do it (actually tts many other ways of doing)
1) Soak rice grains in water overnight
2) Cook rice grains using slow cooker, together with fish/chicken & carrots/potatoes/other veg. U may also add in ikan bilis powder for more taste.
3) Cook for 3-4 hours
I quite lazy so always throw everything into slow cooker. Start simple recipe first lor. Enjoy cooking

Hi tattybear
Welcome
I cook Brennan's porridge this way.
Put rice, vegetable (cut into tiny bits), carrot (puree from fresh carrot) and threadfin (sliced thinly) into slow cooker at 9.30am. Will cook till 11.30 or 12.00noon.
Before feeding Brennan, I will take the porridge out and mesh it using feeding bowl with spoon.

hi all!
thanks for the tips. i will try to cook this Sat for the first time
currently i'm giving my Baby Raph Si Sen brown rice, seems like its not enuff for him and he will scream for more. and i don't dare to give him too much coz i find the texture too thick and its like very heaty leh.
usually after feed he will drink water like a fish which he usually doesn't

Jenifur, carole,
I finally brought Brennan to swim today. So happy. Went Yishun Safra. Was raining while we were about to leave the house fully equipped. Started to rain while we were at Causewaypoint, but we still went ahead with our plan. We waited until the rain stopped then went into the pool.
Brennan was abit puzzled with the new environment and he didnt dare to move alot. After a while, he started splashing water all over and got so excited. He was abit lopsided in the float cos he wanted to touch the water.
Hubby carried him and lie him on his tummy and he started splashing with his hands and kicking with his legs. So funny.. And i guess all these activity made him tired cos he slept the minute we were in the car.
Intend to buy a smaller round shaped float for him so that he wont be lopsided when he tries to touch the water.
Sneaky,
I remembered Samuel's float also quite big hor. will he tend to be lopsided if he tried to splash the water?
Btw, any mummies who are keen to buy loose pieces of huggies swimmers to try, am selling mine
cos i bought 2 sizes and brennan cant fit in the s size (as usual)

I bet Brennan can sit pretty well on his own oredi. he can even sit on sofa. My bb up to now still cannot sit upright on his own leh... how? Oredi bot bumbo for him, he can sit on bumbo but just cannot do it on his own without bumbo
Potty I bot the cheap type at kiddy palace. Just make sure his legs can rest nicely at the sides ie sides not too high. & my maid said round hole type more for girls, oval hole more for boys. Maybe...dunno how true

Ya he can. last time only with support leaning against sofa back. but now without support at the back, he can use his hands to support himself. think gotta train lor. my mil will train him one. Brennan used to sit in bumbo too but he likes to lean forward. Not his thigh too big liao so cant sit inside bumbo anymore.
now we are training him to walk using the walker. he only moves backward sometimes but only afew steps. think he abit lazy so better start fast. heehee
maybe boys pee infront so gotta be oval cos longer in length

Hi,
My way of cook porridge
1) soak rice with hot water for 1 hour
2) Prepare soup base using fish, meat and silevrfish or scallop
3) Pour soup over rice and cook using fire over stove for 30 min
4) cover and leave it for 15 min.
5) Cook it over slow cooker for 1 hour 30 min

ssl, yes, it will lopside a bit. but the last time i brought him to the pool, i tried holding him in swim position. he enjoyed splashing more than in the float. try that!
Samuel can sit on his own and run in the walker already. he loves to play hide and seek with me. he'll chase me in his walker...so funny at times...

Hi Jo & Flo
My boy is also 6mths +, btw his b-day is 24 Oct, just 1 day older than Flo's girl. He's born in Mt A. Why dont u gals pm Jenifur so that she can update your details in the bb chart here.
My bb Kaiser also has not tried swimming yet. Just bcos I hv not bot the right swimsuit for myself
Flo, do u start solids when yr girl is 6mths old? I noe my fren's PD told her to start only when 6mths old. But my PD says actually 4mths old can start already, depending on how comfortable the caregiver is with feeding a bb who cant exactly sit up well. Anyway, I started my boy when he's 4mth.

Welcome.
I've brought Brennan for his first swim last Friday. We went to Yishun Safra swimming pool. I bought those dive suit for him to wear instead of just swimming trunks and naked top. He sat inside a float and basically his upper part of his body doesnt come into contact with water when he is in the float.
But hubby carried him and let him do his kicks in the water with his hands and legs. We limit ourselves to max 1/2hr in the pool lor. But it was really fun. Didnt apply sunblock or anything on him.
Once he is out of the pool, i rinse him under the shower to wash off the pool water. then i use a small basin and put some lactacyd and use hanky to wipe his whole body, before dressing him up.
So far ok. Will definitely bring him for swimming again cos he loves it.

Hi SSL & Jo
I just got my maid to dig out the handmedown swinsuit for Kaiser - it's looks something like a dive suit just tt it's 2 pc
maybe it's the retro type since his eldest cousin is already Pri 5, hehehe... Also got the float that looks like walker & a life jacket. Tot maybe I shd just go ahead asap as I shd be no reason to procrastinate now...
Jo, why dont u go to any one of the archive links above I see if u see any bb chart included there. If yes, just pm Jenifur there lor.
