celeste,
Oh i added the jar food into my ger's milk, else i dunno whether she wanna eat from spoon or not haha. But she doesn't reject the milk, so i guess she accept the taste lor
Once i added creamed spinach, but she rejected the milk, so that one i know sure cannot buy again.
delmonte... got sugar? It definitely works on adults! But i dunno about babies

celeste,
I heard cannot dilute milk because the bb will take in less nutrients. Dunno true or not. I told hubby about it (because i used to dilute in her 1-2 mths to prevent constipation like u) and he said it may make sense to say that the amount of nutrients may not be the same when we should use 120 ml of water for e.g. compared to 140 ml of water.
Hmmm, sometimes i pour hot water into the bottle, also overshoot by around 10 ml. Think 10 ml - 20 ml doesn't really matter much.

michele,
the quality is not superb but good enough.. anyway the most they wear is just 2-6 months hehee ... no point lasting forever
btw, what quality problem did u encountered with fox? cos I only bought tshirts from them previously for my boy and so far he had been wearing them quite well leh... no color running, no tear, hmm nothing notable leh...
I just bought quite a couple of shirt and dress for J & S during the polo.com private sale... the clothes not yet arrive leh.. sian... the problem is i bought a repeat order cos my order went thru and my fren who ordered for me also went thru hehee.. btw, u got a USA credit card ? polo.com qutie sticky over credit card being issued in USA leh.... that's why I was surprised my order went thru... i thought it sure will kena rejected that's why i got my fren to use his US credit card to order.
btw, how come u got 30% discount? I know there is a sale going on .. hmm up to 30%... is yours exlusive storewide?

michele,
the fox so jialat ah ? u bought from taiwan ah ? My boy's fox tshirt and pants so far ok leh... at least not like worn and faded after just 1 wash... i also use washing machine... not so hardworking handwash hehee
Maybe becos i use bb detergent? i dunno leh... it takes 5-6 months before it shows signs of wearing leh... maybe becos he got quite a lot of clothes and dun wear it too often lor... plus he wear nicer clothes during weekends hehee ... on weekdays wear the pasar malam clothes my mum bought
actually your fren's suggestion is good u know.. I always bought 1 size bigger at least. Greater mileage. Like for J ... she is 6months old... I buy only a few pieces of 6-12m, normally I will buy 12-18m or sometimes even 18-24m.. kiasu lah..

missk,
Me and my hubby both had health challenges a few years back...
hmm... it's not easy to convince someone to change their diet. Here, one will start to be conscious of diet when he/she meet some health challenge
It took about 2 years for my hubby to accept vegetables.
Do you know if the chicken, cows, pigs are given anti-biotics?? Do you know that these poultry are given hormones to make their flesh grow too?? hmm... Is there a possibility that the antibiotics and hormones will get into our blood system?? To me, the answers are yes
So I try not to eat too much. If you have noticed, there's a call for doctors not to prescribe anti-biotics easily. What's the reason?? And what about the antibiotics we indirectly took from food??
michele,
How come you got 30% discount?? Aiya... my sis just came back from US...
Else gonna pay lots for the shipping costs...
Catch up later... baby calling for me...

poohy, lyn,
i was wondering if i could show her more new cards instead of doing just 1 new card each set..
missk,
when i brought my girl to kindermusik, she was the youngest bb there.
And I share the same opinion with Poohy that when bb can crawl, its more fun.
that is the time they are really curious and will crawl all around exploring so when they dun know how to crawl and situp yet, I feel that spending time singing and interacting with them at home is enough.

Re: Fox
Yah .. I buy loads of Fox stuff basically because it's not so costly and on top of that, I only buy when they are on sale. The clothes still look alrite. I put them in the machine to spin dry. The colours didn't fade after one wash lah, prob after abt 15 washes.
Peng, haha ..me in jakarta leh. Would go trial with you too.
lyn, thanks for the info. Will tell him right now!

re: switching of FM stage 1 to 2
I was advised to do it this way:
if baby is having 5 feeds of milk per day...
give him 4 feeds of stage 1 and 1 feed of stage 2...continue for 3 days to monitor the stools...
then if ok, start to give 3 feeds of stage 1 and 2 feeds of stage 2 for another 3 days...
continue decreasing stage 1 feeds and increasing stage 2 feeds until baby is on total stage 2 feeds....
not advisable to mix stage 1 powder and stage 2 powder in one bottle coz baby may not be taking enough nutrients....

okasan,
That was also advised by wyeth. They have a chart for that. But what happened was my ger rejected stage 2 suddenly after a few days i started stage 2. Dunno why. So bobian, i got to mix stage 1 and 2 together, and she accepted it. Slowly slowly... then i switch back totally to stage 2.

Michele,
I'm a frequent shopper of Foxbaby too! So far, i don't have problem about fading of the clothes.
peng,
If you interested to join the bulk purchase of studioloft, hurry....maybe you can take the preggie pics too.
okasan,
"not advisable to mix stage 1 powder and stage 2 powder in one bottle coz baby may not be taking enough nutrients...." You sure? The nurse from Abbott (similac) told me to mix stage 1 & 2 together at beginning....The spoon for similac is the big one 1 spoon = 2 spoons from other milk powder. So i was thinking to mix 2 spoons stage 1 and 1 spoon stage for the beginning...
I'm worried my boy will have hard stools too...some more he don't really like to drink water!
