Lyn,
Didnt c any articles on whether cup or straw drinking should comes first. Think it dun matter. :)
Well, think I'll let my boy try straw drinking coz he was sucking at the spout when I held the sippy cup for him. See how it goes! :)

Good morning

Today rainin again.. luckily yest is Sunny.. all our clothes are dry finally.

wah look like we are all long-time marathon couples. I m with my hubby since 92. which means 14yrs. but we married oni in Jan 05. keke

Lyn
U gettin winter clothes? I wonder wher to get in S'pore. Wanted to get some warm clothes for Mandy too. Let me noe if u manage to find in s'pore/

re: potty training
i remember readin somewher that we can start potty trainin as early as now. My nanny had sort of started Mandy weeks ago. When she started to poo (cos everytime she want to poo, she will make the poo noise), my nanny will carry her to the toilet bowl in a squat position n let her poo into the bowl. it is cleaner too, for ger especially, so that the poo will not b smashed all over her butt.
So when she able to sit firmly, then i get the potty to train.
 
Hi tinkle,
Your pc crashed again ah?
Are you on leave yesterday also? Just happened to see u and yr family yesterday morning when i'm going to work.

Dor,
If you wanted to buy some sweaters/warm clothes for yr gal, maybe you can check out Foxbaby or BabyGap. I bought a sweater/jacket for Foxbaby for my son and they have more choices of long sleeve tops, winter season clothings.

ok. thks. i think i hv to buy now rite.. cos now is winter season. mayb i shall wait till the sale come rite..keke. I oni need those in mar or apr nxt yr.
 
Dor,
Another place to get winter clothes for baby is Mothercare, i think they having sale too. 1 pc at 15% discount, 2 pcs 20% and so on...but mothercare's price is higher than foxbaby.
 
hey mummies

hold on to ur buys at FOX baby ... on 25th onwards, they r hvin SALES up to 40% off n if u buy 3 or more, additional 15%

serene
ya.. mothercare is expensive.

missk
i give mandy wear short sleeve but i bring along sweater for her to put on.
 
Dor:
i hv 2 Gap sweaters w hood for chloe. I always used it during rainy days or places where air con very strong like eg, changi airport n etc....Esp nowadays weather very very cold....Imagine me also wearing sweater tis week at work, freezing manz...

yaloh so many clothings stil wet. I put all clothings in the dryer to dry...
 
Serene:

happy.gif


Angeline:
hmm no choice they r like tat, keep turning n moving e head one. hv to be patient loh.....or sometimes me just make it short, just a mouthful cos she seems not interested.
 
Mummies,

Just to like to check.. for girls clothes, sometimes they only have tops for offer. How would you match these tops with bottoms? i am thinking of those type of denim skirts to go with the tops. Any other alternatives?
 
hello mummies, on leave this week and next week. been busy with baby jake... wow so many postings, cannot catch up lo..

read some mummies talking about starting a business, wow... so entreprenuerial... good good...
 
missk,
i brought my boy to wedding dinner before.just wear normal kai kai clothes. but be careful of the noise and many faces. that time he had this blank look cause overwhelm with so many faces talking to him plus the din of noise. esp the yam seng part..i had to keep bringing him out of the hall for quiet time out.if its not too close friend or relative dont think i'll bring him to wedding dinner again till bigger a bit. depends on individual babies i guess, my boy don't like to go loud places eg. car show etc with loud noise. even when i was preggie could tell already, cause he would turn and squirm if there's low male voice or loud sound. when i was 9 months preggie i went for action packed movie, he kick and squirm i was so scared he'll decide to come out that day. vacuum, thunder, construction sound will startle him. when i go jb this cny, there'll be firecracker non stop entire village, don't know how he'll cope......
 
kk

buy one colour for the bottom. so u can match with the top. LIke strikin pink, white (a very good choice that can b match w everything), demin (which always look nice w anything).
Either u mix a colourful top w a one colour bottom or a solid colour top w print bottom.
hope that helps

Serene
for fox baby, do u find the size big for asian? I juz went to see. i feel tat the 3-6mths size is quite big lei. Hven buy yet.. waiting for the sale on 25th..keke. hope they are still there...wahahah
 
Dor,
You find foxbaby size big, i feel their bottoms are smaller. I've bought size 6-12mths for the tops, 12-18mths for the bottom, the waistline rather small. Lately, i bought a jacket also 12-18mths but i find it abit too short for my son, regretted, should have bought size 18-24mths!
They going to have sale on 25th?

kite, sunflower,
Foxbaby's sale has been on for the last 3 wks as i went there every week to see if they have any new arrival...

missk,
My son been wearing long sleeve lately. I also had bought a long sleeve shirt and long sleeve tee for him to wear on eve and xmas day.
happy.gif


dor,
I see, that's good, 40% + 15%, that's alot discount.
 
Lyn: what is "mei nu"? ok i PM you.
Strivectin ... read that it cant be used in lactating women ... so i didnt use it even though i have REALLY BADDD stretch marks
sad.gif
so sad ...

Fi: i was away for 5 days in KL, but in total, abt 10 days with my baby, so latch on direct for 10 days ... she's not on semi solids yet, so my current yield is not enuff for her daily meals ... need to top up wif frozen BM. How? Have u upped your supply yet ? I been drinking the MIM tea, but to no avail lei ... *sigh*
 
K_Ong,
My supply still about the same. What's MIM tea? i have Organic Mother's Milk which is a herbal tea but doesnt seem to have any difference also. But then it say drink 3-5 cups a day but i only try 1 cup a day. How old your baby, non on solid yet?

mummies,
have you all manage to trim the flabby tummy? our babies almost 7 months. by 9 months technically our body is suppose to go back to pre-preggie isnt it, deadline looming ahead leh..but my tummy still buldge out flabby.

BF mummies,
how's your appetite? i easily feel hungry till my colleague notice so embarassing.
 
Wah... so shiok!! slept almost all day.. bad weather so jus sleep sleep sleep...
Brendan crawled today!! sideways counted? heehee... he can say "hie" and he called ah pa pa pa, my hub thinks he's callin him... i think it's jus babbling...
sad.gif
why not ma ma...

K Ong: i think "mei nu" is pretty girl lah!! haha!! i used biotherm during my pregnancy, i don't have any stretch marks...
happy.gif


Fi: same here... i EAT so much... keep using breast feeding as an excuse. home biz? no news from u...

Missk: Dress his FINEST!!! wedding woh.. 1st one he attending...i'm sure indo has this brand: janie & jack. our clothes from them came today, they're some fine clothes. in fact, he's gonna wear a bodysuit from them for tomorrow's xmas party. wait... where is the wedding held?

i still have to use breast pads... still leaks when engorged. a good tea to try will be the Hipp nursing tea. my friend in tw drinks that and it works for her... for me it's just lots of eating & fluid.
 
missk: u know the wedding we're attending in jan... i bght Bren a 2 piece polo outfit.. shirt, suspenders and all.. haha!! no shoes though... still scouting!!
 
Fi: MIM is moms in mind
happy.gif

my dd just turned 6 mths ... dont intend to start her on solids yet ... cuz
1) too lazy to think of what to cook for her
2) she can't sit up steady yet so i dont think she is ready
3) no high chair for her ...

so i'm going to look ard for a high chair tonight ! haahaa

Mich: heehee... oic... Lyn: no la, me where got Mei Nu ... pregnancy that time grew so big !!!

Mich: so lucky u ,... i have really bad stretch marks ... the sad thing is, my mum and sis dont have ... but the doc says nothing i can do ... my skin is taut and when it stretches, it breaks thus leaving the marks ... oh well ...

i notice i have been cutting down on food lately, so maybe that is contributing to the low ss ??

so cute ... no shoes ! haahaa, mine too !
i bought her a dress for my sis in laws wedding in KL, plus a little cardi. So cute, will post pics when i get home ...
also, didnt wear shoes !!!

ok girls, taka having sale tonight, 10% for black card holders !
am off !!

Merry Xmas to all !!
 
fi, hey ..thanks for sharing. I am also afraid he's gonna be very cranky during the luncheon. Thank God, it's a luncheon. And yes, I am constantly hungry. For supper last nite, I ate a beef and chicken steak and fries! My husband was shocked.

kite, the munchkin food blender is great. Very easy to use and wash. I just made pear puree
happy.gif
But not organic pear
happy.gif


wah se ..mich ...I dun have time to go buy. They dun have anything here at all!!

Yes, I find the sizes for Fox rather big. My son is still wearing 3 mth old clothes. Some pple just cant believe that!

Serene, haha ...when I wore long sleeves for my son, some pple ask me if it's too hot for him! Wow ..a shirt! Where did u get it from?

Meery xmas KONG. haha
 
fi,

my tummy oso still vv flabby...but i am already back to my pre-pregnancy weight...me too oso always hungry..always wana eat food..dun koe y..maybe its due to my tiredness n frustating of taking care of my ger..haha

missk,

is the munchkin blender good to use? coz wanted to buy but not sure how is it like.scare wait buy liao but no good waste..was tinking of buying the philips or braun..

mummies,

i just bought banana.hope to feed my ger tomorow.is it tt all kinds of banana bb can eat? can eat del monte type? how to feed banana har?
 
angeline, the blender is really quite alrite. It's a manual blender so of cos you need to use some effort. An electric blender will do the job much faster. It really depends on your budget actually. I managed to puree two huge pears which is more than enough to fill 10 freezer cubes using the Munchkin food processor.

Angeline, coincidentally I just fed Krist banana yesterday. He kinda likes it. I mashed the banana and mixed with 30ml of Similac.
 
k_ong,
that's right i was eating and drinking less too especially when i was travelling.didnt discipline with the meat, fluid intake like how i was before baby was 6 months. oh no.. maybe that's why ms low? ok i better eat properly then.
 
angeline,missk,michele,
thanks for sharing about appetite.guess i musnt be embarassed about my food intake, i dont even dare to eat supper.see what's it done to my ms.but i think it has various contributing factor, not just one reason..

but angeline,
why the frustration? anyone helping you with your ger? i'm very grateful for mil's help. in fact i have xmas office party next week and she wan to help me make food woh...
happy.gif
i feel like a small girl going for children's day and the mother fried bee hoon for the child to take to the party like when we were young..

after 2 days of pouring water into boy's mouth from sippy cup, he knows how to suck on it already! so i've put the valve back it and voila...he big boy liao moving on to sippy cup
happy.gif

missk: i find it really hard to believe... Krsit is so much bigger than Bren and Bren wears the 6-12mths onesies from Fox and i find it small!! maybe its becos i use dryer and it shrinks??
