Chicken Little/Flo,
Wah, I didn't realise Ryan's feet so small.....if he were a gal, it would be nice....hahaha. Anyway, I dun realise understand the measuremements cos 14 cm means size of kid's feet or measurement of the base of the shoe?? I took Ryan to Collette yesterday and the lady tried to sell me size 20 which is for 19cm feet! I'm so confused as to how to buy the right size for Ryan. For some strange reasons, I can't see the sizing chart for shoo shoos.

Re: Appetite
I also noticed a drop in Ryan's appetite. Last time he can take one full chinese bowl of porridge and sometimes even a bit more than that. Nowadays I have problems giving him half a bowl.
Re: Milk
May I know if anyone know what is the quantity we still need to give our bb after one year old? Cos the 6-12 mths was 500-600ml....so am wondering if I can cut down on my pumping......
Although I must say that my boi is real good. If i go out at nite (e.g. for weddin dinner), he will go to sleep and wake up when mummy is home to latch....happened so many times that I am convinced he really knows....

Morning Mummies...
My CPU was declared dead by the technician yesterday. Since we have hundreds of photos and other files in the harddisk to be saved, we decided to ask the technician to put together a new CPU using our current harddisk/motherboard and that's gonna cost us another $750... Sigh... Good thing is the CPU would be ready by today so hopefully everything would be ok.

Re Photoshoot
We had our photoshoot with Joycelyn yesterday and it was fun... by the last half hour we were all tired already... Good thing Ashley was in a very good mood as my mum had made her sleep well before. Wenyl, Joycelyn was saying Ethan was also a very happy baby! Can't wait to see our photos. =)

Re Stop BreastFeeding
Mummies I have officially stopped breastfeeding on the eve of Ashley's 1st birthday. Actually i have been cutting down gradually from Oct (Morning & Night feed), Nov (Night only) and Dec (only when fuss at bedtime). On the eve of Ashley's birthday, I was in the room with her during bed time getting her to sleep. She was fussing a little, not hungry (already drank a bottle of milk) but more of sleepy n yet wanting me to carry. So I decided to scope her up and let her suckle for the last time as a "closing ceremony". I was looking at her and reminiscing how much she has grown over the past year, how tiny she was when she was born and how big she is now with legs extending beyong my arms and resting on the bed, how she used to go all excited and yearning when she knows I'm going to breastfeed her... and I got so emotional and started tearing. Ashley fell asleep at my breast that night.
Mummies, we have indeed come a long way in the past 1 year. I am glad I have all of you to share this wonderful experience with as a first time mother. Thank you!

Clare - your post makes me tink back of the breastfeeding days too.. how she will steal glances at me when i feed her,how she stared intently as i prayed for her during feeding... so adorable... and at times she will look as if she is scared when i pulled her away... aww.... u made me tear Clare!!! *sob sob*
we reali have come such a long way... right tis moment, cant wait to fly home and give Celeste one big n tight hug!!!

I can understand how you feel. I had a few closing ceremony with Gerald coz I dun know when he'll refuse to latch as my supply was really v little. I wld even take pics during my last few latching sessions. Each time, I wld also tear as I always think it'll be the last. I wld also tell myself how much he has grown. WHen he was a NB, his full length was lesser than the width of my body and when I stopped, his legs were dangling on the bed. Kudos to all mummies who are still bf-ing. The journey is tough but definitely worth the sacrifice.

Clare, what u wrote made me tear too! luckily nobody walked past in the office. i'm still breastfeeding edgar now. but he's not very "gian" like some other bbies i know of. still i don't know how to wean him off. i know he can do without me bfing him. so i think i'm the one who will suffer from the "seperation anxiety"! initially i told myself i will bf for 6mths, then when 6mth came, i told myself i'll stop at 1yr. but now that the 1yr mark is drawing near, i don't know if i will stop. i'm now contemplating 1.5 yr! oh no...i can't seem to stop!! too used to the routine liao!!

happy bday damien, aidan and ethan.
clare,
your post reminds me of the bf days too! i din even have a closing ceremony and now JH doesn't want to latch anymore....
must be heart pain to lose the stuff in your CPU. hope can recover.
Flo,
after discussion with hb, he refused to let JH go for the postivie bb class. instead he prefers classes like GUG...well better than nothing right..so i may sign JH up for a trial for GUG.

Hi Krissie,
oh dear, I hope you father is okay? I know what you mean about no mood to celebrate... is he likely to stay in hospital for awhile?
Hi Clare,
your post really says it for all of us who are still bfing.... I just dun want the day to come, but know that sooner or later, it will happen... only problem is Shannon refuses milk from a bottle now and prefers drinking from straw or cup. I keep telling myself that I will start weaning her off once she hits one, and it's 1 day away... sob sob..!
Babylon,
haha your post made me remember too, last year this time I was preparing to go lunch and my water bag started leaking during lunch time.. congrats, so shiok, first prize!
SY,
haha, GUG and positive babies no different leh? Well, anyway, good that he allows JH to attend at least one..
Flo and Tracy,
you gals pay already? I'm going down tomorrow since Hb is off and is Shannon's BD, so if you need to tompang me, let me know

Hi Wendyheng,
we've posted a few recommendation on cakes a few weeks back, generally most of us are using cake avenue, Pine gardens etc. Some of us are using Room for desserts, or Four leaves...

Hi mummies,
Wah, we are all getting nostalgic and sentimental here...
Re. BF
Clare, what you wrote makes me want to tear liao... Can fully understand how you feel.
I made the decision to wean after Isaac's birthday which was last week. Had wanted to stop latching this week and start the process of weaning. But going Genting next week and told myself I'll stop after the Genting trip.
Anyway, nowadays whenever BF Isaac, I'll be quite emotional cos I know come next week, I have to stop liao and whenever I think about having to stop, my heart will be racing. Feel so sad, already experiencing separation anxiety. But still I'm determined to stop latching next week, cos I know that it's a matter of sooner or later, and I really do not want Isaac to learn how to demand drinking from the breasts. Also I'm actually quite sian of pumping at work already...
Now, when I latch Isaac on, I'll stare at him the whole time, stroke his face and try to etch the image of him latching on eagerly and drinking contentedly into my mind. Oh gosh, thinking about it now makes me want to tear liao...
Re. weaning
I'm now pumping once and work and latch twice a day during weekdays. Intend to stop latching completely first and replace with pumping. But per pump, reduce amount pumped out. After a few days, I'll stretch the interval plus reduce pump qty... when Ms drops, I'll reduce pump. Eventually, reduce untill can stop totally.
Krissie,
Hope your dad is getting better!
No problem, just let me know if you liek to have the airwalker balloon.

Clare,
a question for you. Won't ashley cry for your breasts or want some comfort from you? what do you do if she wants to latch on?
I believe I will have great difficulty weaning clariss. she wants to latch when she sees me at night and she will keep fussing if someone else is carrying her and she won't let me out of her sight. I really have no idea how to wean her. I also don't want to wean her when she is not ready but then again I don't know when she will be ready. chiam.
