YB,
I am wondering should I also take reductil to lose weight after I totally wean off ... me still have 2 kgs before reaching pre-pregnancy weight.
dsii,
u also planning to wean off soon? Express till very sianz hor ...
Z-lia/lucida,
Check with you regarding weaning off since both have experience. Currently I am expressing only once a day and amount has dropped to low 150ml, must I continue to reduce the supply or can I just wake up tomorrow and don't express? Afraid will get block ducts ...

Hello mummies,
long time no see! Didn't have time to catch up on the past threads. Started work, year-end reporting season, so bz bz!
Hope everyone is doing alright. Joshua started on plain rice cereal last saturday. He loves it. Next week, the school will start him on porridge. I am gradually weaning him off BM. Now he's on FM twice a day.
Zoe, I bought Great Eastern plan for Joshua. We compare NTUC and Aviva with GE and it's combines the best points of both.
Remember to jio me if there's a gathering hor. Won't be checking forum too often now cos working and i just can't seem to connect from home at night (something wrong with broadband).

Quick question: What are your babies sleeping on?

Re: NTUC Income
Think I read above some mummies asking about Income agent. We have a pretty good one. Very detailed lady and very on in following up on her side, and keeps us updated. Let me know if anyone wants her contacts.
Julie,
my boy sleeps in his crib too. Do you mean pillows or tummies? hehehe....Mine sleeps on both.

Jul04, hee.. For the first 4 months, I put my baby on a high chair convertible to bed. Just upgraded him to a baby mattress (similar to those use in baby cot) next to our bed. Our bed is on a platform...just curious what other options available. Bedroom got no space for baby cot. Now that he is used to the mattress, sometimes find him sleeping diagonally across....

Hi Julie,
My bb sleeps with us; she used to sleep in the playpen but she doesnt like it anymore. In fact she sleeps very well when she is with us, fidgets less. But of course, we intend to get her a cot or something so that she can sleep o her own.
Can anyone advise for how long can the cot be used until? Two years old? I like those that can be converted to bed type.

Julie, my bb sleeps in sarong during daytime too.. Night time, she sleeps in her cot. Sometimes, we let her sleep with us if she figets a lot and or do flips.
Weaning on BM:
I will wean my bb when my milk supply drops. Now giving her one or two feeds of FM at night.
dsiitan, hope u get well soon leh... If still feel unwell, better see doc.

Hi Julie,
sicne ur's is a platform bed, think it's quite a good idea to let ur bb sleep on mattress on d floor. bb cot do takes up space n bb mattress easier to keep n move around also.
they will definitely sleep in all kinds of positions one lah as long as make sure they wont knock onto anything
mine sleeps sarong in d day n at night in her cot convertible to toddler bed so it's quite big.

Julie,
my gal sleeps in bb cot since birth, have lowered the bed last week cos sometimes she will grab the bedside 2 prop herself up...but during daytime at my mum's place she sleeps in playpen...

question for mummies -
have u all started "disciplining" ur babies? i was talking to my girlfriends (no kids) n telling them how my girl whines n screams when she cannot get the toy (sometimes cos we purposely want her to try n reach for it). then they were exclaiming how spoilt my girl is n shld not give in to her.
confused. shld i start disciplining her that she can't get her way all the time? but i dun wan her to feel frustrated by not being able to get her toy also.

dsiitan, better to take the medicine lah. Health very important.
Jurong gal, my bb also bites me once in a while. Hope it is not too often! I am still giving her BM partly to save money and PD mentioned it is good for bb. So still giving lor. Nowadays, I pump once in the night before I sleep. Daytime, I latch her on. After 6pm, give FM or BM in bottle. Strange thing is, she seems to drink more if it is FM. Not sure why.. hee

Hi mummies,
Didn't log in tis afternoon cos thought my wireless network got prob. Cannot detect any network at all. Called Starhub but also no use. End up, discovered the wireless button on my laptop is turn off...sigh...must b BB Kaylyn's deed...
Hi Eeyore/May/Jurong gal/lala,
My pre-preg weight is 45kg, so I'm still trying hard to slim down..actually my GP's patients mostly go to him for slimming or beauty treatments. Cos he also offer mesotheraphy, liposuction, laser etc etc...but he's also a GP & he treated my hyperthyroid last time. I'm comfy wif him so I go to c him most of the time. Think normal GPs are really strict wif ur BMI. If I go noraml GPs, dun think I can get reductile also...
Hi Jurong Gal,
No wonder Abbort gave me 2 tins of follow-on samples lah..cos the Excellence is old version. But still can give my gal hor..I haven't stock up the FM yet cos dunno if suitable for my gal.
U dun look like 50kg leh...u very small size leh..my top half of body is heavier, so I look fat lor...
Hi Lok,
We have a gathering on 10 Feb at my plc in Hougang. U free?
Hi mummies,
A nurse from my GP told me yesterday tat some rice cereals contain milk. So it's more heaty. May caused constipation. So have to take more veg & fruits. Btw, fish & chicken is recommended after 7mth, to reduce allergies. The nurse also told me she gave her kids Nestle rice cereals (night verion) at night so they can sleep longer. Seems tat the night version contains some ingredients tat can soothe the bb & encourage them to sleep longer...hmm...I'll go supermarket to chk it out.

Hi Julie,
My gal sleeps in her cot alone in the nursery room. We monitor her by switching on the BB Monitor at night.
At my mum's plc, she sleeps in the playpen.
Hi Dsii,
Aiyo, sick already still think so much arh..Ur health more impt leh...somemore u r Isaac & Ian's main caretaker. If u fall sick, who takes care of them?
Irregardless wherther it's BM or FM, I believe it's the nutrients in it tat's most impt. So even if u BF, also must make sure the milk is good & full of nutrients.
Hi Peach,
I think our bbs are too young to understand when u discipline them. But if my gal cries, I won't go to her immediately. I'll call her across the room or stand over her & talk/smile at her. If she stops crying, then I'll continue wif my chores. If not, then I'll pick her up.

Oh yah, the nurse also told me, better to give brown rice on alternate days. Cos brown rice will also caused constipation. Somemore, my gal dun really like to drink plain water. Guess cos it's tasteless.
Hi Kin,
Tried giving my gal the Bellamy rice cereal yesterday. But she rejects. I tried some myself, & it's tastesless...is it supposed to b like tat? Or I didn't mix it correctly..I followed ur instructions & pour the whole cereal powder in...

Kloe,
U can try giving ur bb bananas..no need to blend or prepare. Just peel & scrape some off the spoon & feed. Easy & gd for constipation too.

YB,
Onz for the gathering. Sms me nearer the date if you don't see my reply. ok? I fed Bellamy to Joshua as well. He loves it leh, will open his mouth big big and want to snatch the feeding bowl too. I tasted it and my hubby too, quite fragrant. Did u mix with water or FM? I mixed with BM and the school mix with water --- all ok for Joshua.
