duffybuff, the ikea high chair has an add on table top. but note that my current chair is not from ikea. it is cosco brand from kiddy palace. has back support, seat belt, table top and table top extender. jake loves it.
i also have another highchair, like the Jane highchair, which can be converted to a mini table and chair next time. din use that, still in my store room.
kite, vivo city B1 naturally marketplace by cold storage sells organic stuff, but not alot. got pears and carrots there. they also sell apples and some other basic veg, but no pumpkin and sweet potato. I found an organic shop near my place, they sell all sorts of fruits and vegs. plus cereals, food jars, limited selection in terms of flavors and variety, but lots of diff brands to choose from.
white cereal should be rice cereal. can intro as 1st food, but not barley. barley should only be intro after rice, oat, then barley, in this order, keeping a 4 day rule of single food. jake has been on oatmeal cereal for 1 week lo.
missk, jake sleeps from 6 to 6. but think this is his sleeping habit, i din do anything. by 6... he will cry for bed bed... ha ha... other than that, during 6am - 6pm, he does 4 short naps, 30 - 45 mins.
Step, for vegs/fruits you might like to steam then blend. steam is better, as retain nutrients. of you can also boil with little water, then blend with the water to the right consistency.
yes, life is so unpredictable. must cherish the people around us. me too, a colleague just died halfway through his teaching term. very sad... cos i used to co-author with him.
i knew him back from Oz to Sing...
