Mummies,
Brought Kay to PD tis morn. Cfm Kay does not have Hypothyroid...but he's not sure if Kay had Hyperthyroid. Cos the healthy range in the tests report is for adults, not kids. So PD has to go find the kids range for me. Am waiting for his call.
He also said if I'm anxious abt Kay's condition, then shld bring her to KKH. They have Endocrinologist specially for bbs & kids.

Sat one day can use IFC. Babies Inc for eg offers ad-hoc services so I'm sure there are others that offer similar. Many toys and kids to distract her there.
PM
You'll have to leash E soon. Ha. When he's more stable. At the moment when they fall still need hands to break the fall so I can't use the leash on D yet but I make him hold my hand unless it's a big open space.

Zoe, I saw some leash that wraps around the body, from the underarm to waist, they still can use their hands. Very tempted to buy it since Emerson is always running towards the escalator. I think he's very curious abt that 'machine', but my hubby is quite against leashing him.....
PM
That's a harness. I have one. If you try it, you will understand that they are unable to break their fall when harnessed. They are not stable enuff to withstand a pulling force when they are about to fall or when they are trying to regain their balance. Same as when you hold onto one of their hands when walking, you find that they are less stable. I know many pp are against harnesses but I had one when I was young and it gave me so much more freedom and that's what I love.

I oso let charlene walk around while I'm eating outside... so far she just move around the seats... she's able to walk confidently from kitchen to living room then from living room to bedroom... looking at her unstable motion, looks very funny... and nowadays even if she falls, she won't cry oso cos she seems to know that is she herself that wants to walk...
aiyoh.. talk abt walking.
last time zav will guai guai sit on his high chair while me and hubby eat our meals outside.
now, he will attempt to stand on highchair, even attempt to get out of the high chair. super duper sian.
so now we have to take turn eat.
how? anyone hv any bright ideas?

haha. MTDT, i remember seeing the scene that u described in dsii's house during the gathering.
for germayn, she will always want to play with the cutlery.. ie she'll purposely drop the spoon, etc on the floor and want us to pick up it up for her, then she'll drop again..and this will go on and on during the meal..
but well... i dont have any ideas leh..haha. paiseh. have been living with this since the twins' time.
i also let germayn walk when im outside with her, only when i'm rushing, or when it is very crowded, then i'll carry her. but she's like... she wouldnt care whether im behind her anot.. she can just roam somewhere else, play with other ppl, and she totally wont look back.

YB - thanks for the update on d jabs. i think really need to find a day to bring kristen for her jabs. sigh. normally go to the tmc pd for her jabs, but think if no time just have to go to a diff doctor that is more convenient.
OC - haha.. my mum brought Kristen to buy breakfast. think at that point, hubby was getting his sleep n i was taking my nice long shower.
zoe - the harness gives more freedom huh? that's an interesting way of thinking abt it. never thought of it that way b4!

hi MT,
Usually wat we do is we wont put the baby on the highchair the moment we reach the restaurant. We will carry her on our laps or walk around the place with her. ONly when the food comes then we put her in the highchair, at least she wont feel so bored so soon and both hubby and I can eat at the same time. Can boh? Or let bb play with the menu?

zlia - haha... oh ya, he demo at dsii hse rite. 
Zav will also purposely throw things down and will even look down and go "uh oh" but i dun wan to keep picking up things for him while he sit on the highchair
May - I also did tat, but the most can only last for a while. then usu he is fed before we have our meals. so he is not tat interested in our food also. (as I advocate - no sit down, no food, so he will only sit down when he wants to eat my food, then immediately after tat be spiderman again
)
zav also loves to walk ard too. he will even struggle to get down while being carried. but once down, he will walk at his "own".... regardless where am I and where am I going.
last sat I was at the SM office counter paying next term fee, then boh bian Zavier wants to walk ard, so I just let him be. in the end, he walk one big round into the classroom and out.. happily somemore. some parents saw and were laughing away. haha

I feed him as I eat so that he sits in the high chair longer.., because even if i feed him before my meal, he will still want to eat.
last time zav will be kpo in my food... but nowadays, he is not tat "rubbish" liao. or maybe he attitude, dun wan to be "tied down" with food, so he rather forgo food! hahaha
KLCC - ya loh... i was expecting him to cry when he get lost inside the SM Maze. but end up, he walk out happily somemore dunno from where, took a balloon out! hahahah
As he was wearing his squeaking sandals, so I can still hear him when he venture inside. so I more fang xin. haha

zav's sense of direction v good..v smart boy
oh, for xavier, as long as i gave him food to eat, he will stay in his high chair. now he oso likes escalator, the moment he sees escalator, he will struggle to get down and walk on the escalator himself if we are carrying him. if he is walking, he will walk towards the escalator and attempts to get on it...

Btw, Emerson self feed using hands or utensils? How to train them using utensils? Sure messy de.

Food - it doesnt work on Julian. I feel like a 1st time mum dealing with active toddler.
Sandal - how abt the brand "Riders" I love their sandal cos it is full latex. I wanna get one sandal for Julian too.
Yenny,
that is very dangerous. Must keep close look out for him.
Harness - like striping a pet? Unless the kid runs ard else i dun think it is needed.
We didnt let Julian walk on his own outside cos he isnt stable yet and i dun want to keep cleaning his hands. Lazy mum.

hong - the part on cleaning his hands is SSSOOOOO true!
worst is once seated down, highchair or carseat or pram, he will straight away go play with his shoes! (not clean loh!) aiyoh...
then he will walk halfway, stop, squart and start to "sweep" the floor with his hands! faintz.

Yb - Metro or Kp all have squeaky sandals. Gers designs all very nice
As for self feed, I give him Gerber stars on his bowl (provided by the restuarant) or see what i can find from what i eat (usu fishball his fav), make into smaller pcs. Sometimes I will give him a fork, use my hand to help him with the fork and he'll explore himself, how to put into his mouth etc. yah sure messy, that's why I only do it outside Haha
Hong/MT - U know what, i gave up cleanign his hands. I just clean them before he take his food.. else I just leave it.

Wah! Ian so daring arh!
My sil's gal went to my IL's plc for dinner last sun. Then she curious & purposely go & touch the altar oil lamp. Kena burnt. Cried until jialat. Then mil came out from kitchen & blame us for not looking out for the gal.
Wah lau..my sil was also there lor..she also didn't noticed her own daughter crawling towards the altar.
Actually my IL's plc very not bb-friendly de. The altar on the flr just next to the couch. Then flr cloth lying everywhere on the flr + table fan put on the flr. Luckily I bought a fan cover, otherwise bb's finger sure kena.
