littletot, I still recalled hubby feeding Amber half-boiled egg when she was ard 6mths old. The poor lil girl had immediate reaction within 30mins. In the end she puked everthing out. The second puke was like a waterfall, it was terrible. Recently fed her very little so quite really tell it there's any reaction but it's nevertheless a positive sign.
We will try again in a mth's time.
We will try again in a mth's time.
Just wanna share an incident with u gals. Happened last Thursday. Was trying to blend food for my baby's dinner that nite using a hand-held immersion blender. There was food stuck at the blades of the blender, so I unconsciously stuck my index finger up the blades to remove the food while my the other hand was still pressing the power button.
Usually i would use a spoon but dunno why this time round so absent-minded. Hubby was shouting 'Don't do that!' but too late already.
The top part of the finger already kenna 'blended' too...
Hubby was feeding Ethan dinner then, so got to abandon the poor boy's dinner and rush to the ER.
Spent 3 hrs in the ER, and got about 12 stitches. Surgeon said it was pretty mangled but good thing that it did not injure the bone, was only a flesh wound. I must say that it really looked very gross. Thank God that I was only in pain the next day, and after that life was pretty back to normal. Finger is on the road to recovery now, but still gotta wrap in dressing.
Hubby has all along been harping me about my carelessness in handling sharp objects, so I guess I learnt my lesson well this time round.
Sorry for my long-windedness, thought it might serve as a reminder to everyone while in the kitchen.

bello, Amber's sticky compared to Ashley(as in during the same period). But still I am able to leave her at home for a few hours without much fussing from her. Maybe it's because she's used to the other 2 caregivers - my mum and helper.
But night-time's a bit difficult. Hubby and I went out to catch Spiderman 3....Amber woke up from her slumberland @ 11pm and cried incesssantly till I returned.

<font color="0000ff">CP,
Hope you'll recover fast. I'm also using a handheld blender and was always wary when washing the blades as I've cut myself once. Needs to remind ourselves to be careful during handling. Maybe we can make an effort to switch it off before lifting it from the mixture or jug.
Re: "Sticky" baby
My boy has also started to be extra "sticky" recently. Usually, he'll happily play or let my mum carry when I leave for work but these few days, he CRIED, stretching out for me to carry him. But my mum said he'd stop crying shortly after I'm out of sight. Maybe it's another stage of their development. But I really have no time to do my own tasks or prepare his meals when I'm at home.</font>

CP,
That's a scary experience!! Luckily I don't use handheld blender as I'm very clumsy too.
Separation Anxiety
It's normal for baby to feel this way at this age. Plus their memory is not very good now, so when we're out of sight, usually they will forget our 'existence', till we show up again
Jarrett is the same! Cling to me like a koala bear whenever he sees me

Thanks all for your concern. Finger is healing very well, much better than what I expected for the injury.
I have always been a very clumsy person from young, even more so when I am in a rush for time. Sigh... my hubby said that with a child now, we might anticipate visits to the ER, but he never expected that it would be for me!

Hi mummies
A former collegue of mine needs your help and prayers. Before I can anything, Patsy has already started a chain of prayer for her. Thank God! Do help and pray for Angie and her little Ashley!!

Amber's a week past 1 year old but till now I've not started her on Gain IQ. She's not tasted formula since she was around 4-5 mths old so I am not sure if she can adjust well. I do intend
I am not sure about the titration method but my plan is to introduce a formula night feed in the hope that she'll sleep through the night. She still waking up 3-5 times every night. Hiazzz...

yes bello & gabby, I really hope that both Ashley and Angel will get through this difficult period with God's grace.
bello, good for you especially since you are still working. It's really not easy for working mothers to continue breastfeeding. I haven't suffered mastitis for Amber but I am now nursing a bad blister (2nd time around) caused by Amber's sharp teeth....ouch!!!
Btw, Ash managed to sleep through the night when she was ard 2 years old.

Hi fates
I read that formula doesn't really help bbs sleep thru the night. It depends on individual baby's development. It's recommended to let baby get to that stage on his/her own.
For mine, 2 out of 4x, I think he wakes for comfort sucking as he doesn't really empty the breast then.
Altho I'm really tired out (lack of sleep), I treasure the times bfdg him at night 'coz my boy has refused to latch on when he's awake during the day. I was quite sad at first. So I'll be selling off all my nursing wear when I find time to sort them out.
Hi shawny, ya, it's tough.. especially when I have to 'tahan' for my pumping sessions at work due to long meetings
And ya, afew times I was bitten by my boy and ouch!!! It was really painful!

Hi mummies, sorry to intrude, im from d July thread. Just wondering if anyone of u who has used 1st bday party decor for girls? If u dun wish to keep i would like to buy from u at 50% of original price...thanks for ur help!
about sleeping through the night, i suggested to my mum to dilute the formula slowly and to give less. but she said since we are already up to make the milk, just give the feeding as per normal. ask me not to 'torture' my boy and let him drink as much as he can.
so now only hope he will be tired out and sleep through, when he can walk and play hard.

it's true...don't think that forumula will help much but still willing to give it a try since Amber's waking up on average of 4 times every night. That's like every 2 hours, she needs to suckle. I am not hoping for a sleep-thru but I'll settle for a reduced amout of maybe 2 times.
<font color="0000ff">Sleeping through
My boy is also waking up every 2 hrs each night. It seems worse now with the separation anxiety as it can be hourly. I'm really very tired this morning and have to strain to open my eyes.
I've e-mailed Dr Jack Newman regarding this as I'm still breastfeeding him. According to him, the baby wakes NOT because of inefficient nursing. They wake for company not food.
I agree with gabby we'll have to let them set their own timings.</font>

hi littletot,
my boy will spit out food or stick his finger into his mouth if he wants to stop eating. sometimes,he will gag on purpose if we try to make him eat more.
he has FM for breakfast. he does not like cereal at all, except for quaker oats. my mother gives him this for tea sometimes. you may want to try that for your girl.

hihi
My boy has been waking up 2x only the past few nights.. hooray! That's great cos he used to wake 4x! Hope this will maintain! Hee.
Re breakfast, I'm trying to find alternatives for him too. Currently, he drinks his EBM and eats some bread. Any mommies have recipes to share?
