(2006/04) April 2006 MTB

miu66,

I'm actually quite eager to introduce solid to her. But since pd said so then I wait lor. As for breastfeeding, I will try to continue as long as I can. Can't believe that I have breastfed her for 5mth already. Although I supplement 1 or 2 feed a day, I think it is quite an achievement.
 


<font color="aa00aa">tracy</font>
it's really good that you've been BF'ing for this long
happy.gif
. time really flies, i remember marvelling at my friends who told me that they breastfed for 6mths - 1yr, and now i'm almost there too!!

solids - i totally understand your eagerness!! i actually told myself that i should wait till K is 6mths to start solids but i was too excited after visiting the supermarket and reading abt all the other mommies' feeding stories. but if yr PD has advised you to wait, it's prob better to listen to him/her.
 
Tracy,
I think a main reason why your PD asks you to start solids after 6 months is cos your gal is of smaller size, better for them to get full nutrition from milk.

Rach and all paticipants,
How's the GYMBOREE session today?

sad.gif
Feeling disappointed about the cloth book, so went to view Gymboree and Old Navy websites. Got sales going on ... very tempting! Gymboree's clothes are so sweet - i mean for girls lah....din see the boys'.

Hi Jumbo,

The other time, you mentioned that Mustela prodts can be found in Singapore and you are using one of their moisturiser for Nix, so I thought I'd ask you... do you know if these 2 are sold in Singapore, and how much are they approximately?

Drugstore.com are selling them for US$13 (for the cleanser) and $17 (moisturiser), and I thought they are abit steep... are they cheaper in Singapore? would you know? Thanks!

Koalarie, in honest is very hard to explain to you..coz' every mama got different view haha. okay put it short, Gymboree has good equipments and things for children.

BUT i personally find the instructor standard is pretty sub-standard. so i didnt really like the class. Apart, i find the class like very short and by the time it really warm up for the little ones, the class has end.

In terms of teacher, i'll prefer bNc. In terms of equipments, i prefer Gymboree.
 
Mom yam
thanks. But at least the bbs got warmed up... i think during the bnc a few of our bbs wanted to zzzz? ??? =p

Other mommies,
U can let me noe how u felt on the class via pm me... if not convenient to post here. =p
 
gymboree trial
Rach, thanks for organising
happy.gif


I agree with mom yam. when i went in, i was quite impressed by the facilities. but the instructor wasn't very engaging, gave me the impression that she was a trainee or something. Maybe the BNC teacher too good, so now my standard very high. For the kind of activities that we experienced ytdy, i felt that the classroom space was too small and the class time was too short.
 
Koalarie,

my bb still slp lei..hahaha but then he was so excited the whole day coz' he can go kai kai with mummy.. so he didnt slp from morn. in the end he slp during the class. hahahaha silly boy.

Rach, i really appreciate the effort. at least i get to see how the place work. i thk we can try tanglin one instead of serangoon garden. Both of my good frds little ones are base in Tanglin and they are happy with the service.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm...............
 
hi ladies, the pics looks nice and colourful though!!
happy.gif


for anyone who's interested to plan the next activity
biggrin.gif
, here's the kindermusik link and there's even a video to preview:
http://www.kindermusik.com.sg/curricula_village.htm

i am thinking of going down to try a class at tanglin mall tomorrow but that all depends whether i'm sleepy or not!! for the past 2 nights, K has woken up 2-3 times because she flips and gets startled, then last night at 5am when she woke up she wanted to play!! poor sleepy mommy
sad.gif
 
Mummies,
if u do organise another trial, please let me know. I want to bring my boy there. He's still not recovered yet. Have running nose and cough.
 
miu66,

My girl have just master the art of flipping on Sat. She has been flipping the whole of yesterday. Refuse to sleep until 2am. 1st thing this morning when she woke up is flip. Haiz.... I so sleepy!!!
 
Mummies,
if u do organise another trial, can put on a Saturday? I cannot go every Sunday because I need to go to my mom place. Feel like meeting up with all of you leh.
 
miu66, if u go there can let me know how is it? Hope you have enough sleep by tomorrow :p

fussiecat, i agree with u too hahaha!!!

another trial, in honest i dont kw whether should i go for another trial lei.. hiazz find isaac only keen making frds but not really the class hahaha!
 
Mom-yam n fussiecat,

dun mention abt it.. me also want to go n try try the trial mah..so might as well jio more babies go together lor..

i agree that the teacher seems abit sub-standard lor.. In fact, i've tried a few trials n i find baby jumper gym the best among those i've tried..
but the location is abit ulu lor..

Am also looking into trying other trials..keep me in the loop if anyone organising leh!! BB Ryan wans to go n make friends..
 
mom_yam &amp; ET,
Gymboree called me and asked if I want to bring Jayden to a free trial this coming sunday. She told me both Isaac and Keith are eligible for this Level 2 trial. Both of you going?
 
Hi uniqueone,

yup i receive the call also.. i want to go but but i'm going to bintan this weekend and i'm bringing isaac along.

i'm asking them can i go the week after lei
sad.gif


hiazzzzzz
 
mom_yam,
oh...u not going ah..so did they allow you to go the following week? If 3 of you not going, then I'll be very lonely leh. I shy lah, need to see familiar faces when I go for all these trial classes.
 
uniqueone,

yeap...I received their call and me is still hesitating whether to go or not...after 2 trial class...BnC and Gymboree....confirm Keith is anti-social leh....I so paisay, like very disturbing lah if he so fussy in the class...

mom_yam, if u can only make it another wk...maybe we can postpone and go together lor

btw, Keith is teething liao....last night he keep biting my nipple while I nurse him...then I saw his little tooth is coming out leh....

and also hor...my menses return liao leh....so xian...
 
uniqueone - no prob!!!

ET - i'm going to stay in Banyu Biru Villa.
happy.gif
where u plan to put up???

PS: my mom in law is so unhappy.. but i want family bonding so dont care la.. hahahaha
 
ET,
No lah...Keith is not anti-social lah. Maybe he's just not used to mixing around with friends lah. Jayden sometimes also fuss mah. It's alright one. Don't need to feel paiseh lah.
 
mom_yam,
Can you also check with the Gymboree pple if the rest of the group can join in for the trial class? Coz think by next wk, most of the bb will be 5mths liao and shld be eligible for Level 2 trial. Thanks hor!!

Calling for <font color="0000ff">Uniqueone</font>, <font color="0000ff">Money</font> and <font color="0000ff">HappyFatLady</font>.

Pls PM / email me should you wish to be included in the circle for purchase of the cloth book(s). Thank you.
 
Uniqueone,
Kath is soursing for us, otherwise wait for their next shipment. I'm still waiting for her response. If you are still keen, PM me so you will receive update on the status. I will not post further details on this thread. thanks.
 
momyam,
The villa is the one next to Nirwana Resort right. My friend suggested there oso ...how much u pay huh and how many nights u going. 3D2N? yesterday saw in papers that cruise oso having promotion..so tempted to go but need to apply 3 days leave if I'm going. so still considering.

me have not told my PIL or my mum about this short holiday...but I oso dont care lah. I want to bring him go where is my business right...dont have to get approval from them.
 
uniqueone,
Keith is very very sentitive to new environment and new voices. shan nao jin leh...but u bring him go kai kai...he very very happy. he very huay kar!
 
any baby out there sleep so much that u became worried huh....Keith is really a good sleeper leh. 1 day he sleeps about 15 to 16 hrs a day...too much or not huh...
 
<font color="aa00aa">ET</font>
15-16hrs sounds ok i think, i wish K would sleep more!! at the moment, she isn't sleeping thru the night anymore cos of the flipping problem i mentioned and in the day, she takes v short naps (15-30mins each) only.
 
YY sleeps around 10.30pm for 12hours (with 2 feeding breaks) and in the day, she hardly sleep at all in the day. If I'm lucky, I'll be able to make her take 2 naps of 15-20mins from the time she wakes up to the time she ZZZZ for the day.
 
Hi ET,

That's is the average hours of sleep for babies around this age. But each baby is different. Some need more sleep and some less.
happy.gif


My boy sleeps around 14-15 hours a day, with around 3 naps totally 4 hours, and night sleep around 11 hours. He sleeps at 7.30pm... which is very early according to Singapore standards, but it's a norm in the US
happy.gif
And it's only after he sleeps that I get to cook and have time with my hubby!
 
Hi uniqueone,

I also brought Shawn for his first swim last weekend!
happy.gif
He likes the water leh and was kicking around... he probably thought that it's a huge bath tub, cos he always do that when he bathing too.

<font color="aa00aa">kindermusik</font>
i won't be going tomorrow. rang them up and spoke to someone briefly, the 1130 class i want to go for tm mainly has bbs from 8 - 13mths, so i'd rather attend a session with bbs of a similar age. the lady on the phone told me they are trying to start a class for younger bbs on tues 1030am in the next few wks, so if anyone's interested pls let me know. you can drop in at anyone of their ongoing classes for a trial at $25. their 'village' programme is suitable for NB-18mths according to the website. kindermusik programmes are available at many other childcare centres and nursery schools, check their website for convenient locations.
