Just a story to share. If anyone of you were at Ikea Tampines yesterday, you prob would have heard Aden. Screaming! We were near the checkout counter when he either decided that:
1)he is over-stimulated, need release
2) he is cold, or
3)he has tummy upset (colic)
He cried and screamed at the top of his lungs, non-stop for 10 mins. No matter how i tried to rock, soothe, distract, it didn't work! One uncle stopped in front of us to take in the scene, without offering any help. I looked at him and told him very calmly, while rocking my baby, whether he was here to "kan si" - watch show. He went off. Another aunty came, and she suggested that i rub Aden's tummy cos he sounds like he is having a bad tummy. i did that but Aden didn't stop! We were attracting a lot of attention. The kind aunty took over and carried Aden and he actually stopped howling! But only for 5 sec. He resumed with full force and after a while, could tell that he was losing his voice. The aunty told us to leave the place and see if it helps. We (me and my maid) abandoned our shopping bag and walked out. And Aden stopped.... haiz.....
I vow I am never going back the ikea tampines! Will stick to the old ikea, haha.

Upie,
hahaha.. thanks for sharing with us ur day.
I have the same incident but that was at my mum place. Julian bawled n bawled none stop but i guessed he wanted to sleep but just not the place he used to. Once i was in the cab, my boy stopped! Arghhhh............
Is it during Aden napping time? May be he find the place too cold, not familiar and fussing mummy to go home.

Hello mummies,
Thanks for sharing the video clips. Your babies are so cute! My girl cannot flip on her own yet.
Hello Upie, welcome! I'm also afraid when my girl cries outside. Cos' her crying is super loud and non stop. It always takes a while to calm her down. She will only stop once she feels satisfied.
PM, please take care...

Hi mummies,
Just now brought my gal for her 5th mth 6-in-1 jab. The next jab will be at 15mths, then 18mths. So now can relax..hee..hee...Btw, chicken pox is not included in the 6-in-1 jab. I would like to give my gal chicken pox jab. But would have to wait till 15mths also.
Oh, just to share. Jus now I ask my doc abt bb's weight percentile. I asked him if being in the 50% is bad. But he said no. Actually being in 50% is average & is normal. Tat means got 50% of bb population sharing the same weight as my gal. The higher the weight percentile, the more overweight the bb is. I.e. 90% means only got 10% of bb population sharing same weight. Just for ur info. Hope it helps.
Milk Powder,
Now that our bb is reaching 6mths soon, think it's time we stock up on stage 2 milk powder liao. Can anyone advise me roughly how much cans of milk powder do I need to stock up? Cos by then, bb will also be taking solid food, right?

Mummies, Yeah, my PD from KKH also advocates feeding semi-solids after 6 mths.. I can't wait to let my girl try something else other than milk.
Hong, You've got PM..
Upie/Kloe/Mrs Tan, I've also recently joined the thread..
So many jul mummies and new nicks.. I get confused now reading.. I hope I can make it to the gathering at PM's place.. will be so nice to put a face to the nick.

Morning mummies,
PM, Is E better now?
YB,
Actually no one can be sure if the kids will be an overweight in future cos their weight will slow down when they get older. My PD has diff explaination. He said we have to take into parents gene. If both parents are the tall and big size gene and most likely the kid will inherit them. Like my daughter, she always park herself ard 97% or above and till now she is still the heaviest among her peers.
We even worry if she will become a fatty next time but when we look at how she eat, it is quite impossible. She is just got her mass, u saw my daughter.. Fat bo??
Infact, to me i dun really care if Julian too heavy, i am more concern if he will be underweight or fall ard 50% cos i want to have some buffer weight for him to lost away incase he fall sick.
Kiddo immunse systme will drop dramatically after 1yo and they fall sick more easily.
Most important is to have a gd diet and exercise. Anyway ger ger all love to be pretty so wun go too fat lah.. hahaa.
Milk Powder - i still feed as normal. Cos the transition period will take a few months to happen. Usually we will still give milk every 3hrly but if the milk hr fall on meal time then we will give solid food.
1st introduce 1 meal a day once the bb is ok with solid food and swallow better then we will make it 2x each day.
Dsii,
I like to visit frd who delivered. hee

HI mummies,
PM, hope your bb is well.
BTW, two weeks ago, Ryan had a cough with phlegm and blocked nose....now he has recovered. But sometimes when he talked to me, I can hear "coarse" sounds coming from him....and sometimes, dun have at all. I also dunno whether I can classify that as phlegm...so I gave him water to clear his throat, not too sure if it is due to the phlegm not fully cleared from his cough or due to his cereal or due to his FM...any mummies have similar experiences???

Hi Yenny,
Yes, my gal also same like Ian. Sometimes she'll wait for me to take the hankie off cos she thought I'm playing wif her. Other times, she'll pull off or pass the hankie from 1 hand to another.

Me and my hubby tried it out sometime ago to see if Aden could do it, so that we know he won't be suffocated in the event his balnket fall on him while sleeping. He didn;t pull it away - when we uncovered him, he was busy licking the blanket. And still is now when we put anything over his face!
chrysalid,
Nope, my alma mater is not in Kim Seng Rd. What did i say that made u think i'm your shi jie?
yenny,
Joshua same response as Ian.
mummies,
Haven't been logging on as Joshua started at Babies Resort (infantcare center) this week. He's enjoying himself, made a few new friends (2 of them even tried to hold hands) and lots of toys to play with. We are trying hard to increase his milk intake (still only 4oz every 3 hrs).
He went for his 5-in-1 jab last saturday. PD diagnosed him as having eczema. Since i'm still bfg, so was asked to abstained from cow's milk, tree nuts (peanut butter etc), highly processed and canned food (like sausages, ham, tuna), seafood. Since then, his poo frequency has reduced to only twice a day (vs. after every feed), so I'm suspecting that he's allergic to cow's milk or lactose intolerant. Have to check out with PD so i know what type of FM to introduce later. He's still a small boy (6.4kg at 5mth, only 200g increase from 4th month).

Hi Lok,
Glad to know that Joshua is enjoying himself at Babies resort...I think as long as the PD said that he is healthy and growing, dun be too worry abt his weight....(though I can understand how you feel cos now we are now more worried abt our babies milk intake, weight and frequency of poos...)....but I am sure he will fatten up soon once he takes solids....

nothing lah, just curious lor. Like wat upie say, wan to know if a towel or blanket over his face, see if he knows how to pull it off in case of suffocation.
YB
I realise baby gals are chubbier and lighter but baby boys are more solid, compact and heavier. So even tho baby gals weigh lighter than boys, they appear chubbier...
Now i realise my boy put everything he can grab hold of into his mouth. Tat day i was not paying attention to him, he put a small pc of tissue paper into his mouth. Wah, luckily i saw it and dig it out from his mouth.
Why is my baby not sleeping thru the nite yet? 5 months old liao, i thot should be able? Now he wakes up only once to feed in the nite but hor he couldn't sleep soundly, kept whimpering in his sleep. Sian ah! Everyday like zombie at work.
