mic - good point. but sometimes jake will lean backwards too.... when he plays with the toys, he will lean forward.... will it be back for his spine? maybe will put him in his exer less. and his jumperoo? he also leans forward le....

if you have time, of cos better to make fresh purees... think you are SAHM, easier. for me... can only make his purees at night once a week.

 

[mspiggy]

good afternoon ladies

serene, how tall is your boy now? i tried letting wesley sit on it @ 5 mth, i see he's still short of abit to touching the ground. he was 68cm then

 

[tinklebell]

Amy/ Michele,
i ask that bec other than loss of nutritional value, recently i read in an article that mentions that eating overnight food increases the risk of cancer. Freezing considered overnight food?

Serene,
Hee i saw the car first and then the person
Ya loh ard close to 2pm. Ya, should meet up one of these days

How heavy is Brayden? I havent weighed Fiona for quite some time.... she is in the range of 8.5-9kg.

 

[toto]

tinklebell, dunno leh... i did heard from a fren who is in catering that if you freeze hot food st away, it should retain the nutritional value. dunno how true. but our frozen vegs contain more nutrients than fresh veg.... what is the logic then? hmmm....

Lyn, vivi - wanna meet for dinner prior to the SM PC?

 

[mspiggy]

amy,
hmmm... according to my mum we cant freeze food while it's hot. wonder who's right now?

Re: BabySafe Mattress

any mummies here bought babysafe latex mattress for babycot? Is it good? thinking of buying babysafe to replace existing mattress..find existing mattress very hard, like no good to sleep on. Since now robinson got sale, so thinkgin of getting...

 

[happysunflower]

amy,
Those without ascorbic acid are vegetables. All the fruits puree have ascorbic acid for Gerber, HT, and other brands... Haven't found one that does not contain ascorbic acid for fruits puree.

michele,
What water? The water for steaming? I throw away... I mix EBM with the puree, but not the water. I think EBM more nutritious than the water.
hee... just fed Aloysius with pumpkin

So fun and cute...

angeline,
You eat lor... So fast feed baby with biscuits ah..

Fi,
Not very good to tell baby that his food is very difficult to make

Use a metal spoon to mash the carrots...

tinklebell,
Glad that your MS is back
