PM

Kaedi takes like 1 soup-spoonful of porridge only
sad.gif
Wonder what is the norm? She likes adult food, she will open her mouth to a grain of rice but shut it tight when she sees porridge *_*

The cutest thing she did was while I was munching my food, she tried "kissing" the food from my mouth....sigh
 
Poppy, long time no see. U quit to become SAHM? Yah, Emerson will take that amt too, I a wondering whats the norm also, coz it seem little to me but he seem quite full and keep turning his head left and right. I have to play guessing games when it comes to the next milk feed, dont know how long interval i shld give him.


Kaedi is so sweet hehehe
 
Sandy, why the sad face? Let BB share the love loh. At least yr hubby says bring him along. We have to bring bb along and apparently, still got no plans yet, coz we dont know where to go with baby. Shopping again? kinda of bored for hubby n baby too. Dinner? With Emerson we cant enjoy proper dinner. Romantic places? Hahaha.. how to romantic with Bb?
 
PM,
i haven got chance to go shopping buy my own clothes.. like u say bring BB out how to eat peacefully and shopping.lol

My boy getting active liao.. cannot stay still even went we carry him. He will try to wriggle or "climb" his daddy's body.
 
Hi mummies, my ger finally recovered from her cold n cough, recently quite busy too cos so many things happening. My elder sis also just gave birth to a bb boy, so was telling my ger u so fast upgrade liao, not d youngest anymore...haha

YB,
Sorry dun think i can make it to d gathering liao, cos only left this weekend to do all d cny shopping n gotta 'da sao chu' d hse, really no time already, moreover i cant do it alone so can only wait till my hb free during weekends. Will join next time k?
happy.gif


PM,
My 'TOMY' brand bb monitor also faulty liao since abt 2 mths back, didnt get new one since she is still sleeping in d same room with us. Think Philips one not bad.

For Valentine's, my SIL volunteered to babysit Gillian for d night but me n hb haven plan where to go yet lor
 
Hi mummies,

Wow...this will be our first Valentine Day's celeration with bb.. Hehhee.

Btw..can share where do you usually bring your bbs to on weekends? My hubby and I are going to run out of places very soon. So far, we go to less noisy shopping centres like Paragon and Forum and these two places have Toys'rus. Heeeh..the place for bb and daddy :)) How about United Square??
 
Poppy n PM, my boy is taking abt 1/2 to 3/4 bowl of porridge each time. But can see he is the greedy type. so very hard to say which is the right amt. I guess have to slowly increase the amt (that's wat i read from babycenter.com). from i spoon to 2, then... increase slowly. maybe ur bb is not used to the new texture yet... that's why keep turning the head away.

sad.gif
July birthday bash... i won;t be able to join... however do post the pic k.. so i can see

1 qn for mummies.. i was sick afew days ago and was given antibotics. I know cannot BF my bb when i'm on it. However if i finish the course, how long do i hav to wait b4 bb can hav the BM again? i blur blur.. forget to ask the doc.
 
may, u r so lucky, my weekends always spent at home. too tired to go out liao, cos working during weekdays, usually will prefer some peace and avoid the crowds on weekends.. and also to use the weekends to do some hse chores.. i very no life de...

Gathering

hi mummies,

I'm planning a big bday bash for Cait with some party planners, if I m not wrong, will have magic show, animal balloons for all kids, caricature for all kids, games and gifts not sure what else. If you all don't mind can come join as JULY bb bday bash. My place big enough to accommodate alot of pple. Tried that b4 for my engagement last time so i think this time not a problem. Date confirm on the 7th July (Sat) which is Cait's bday. However, have not confirm the time yet but preferably after 3pm, cus outdoor activities not so hot.

For Vday, hb n i planning to celebrate in advance during the weekend cus also near our anniversary. We will be staying at the hotel where we held our wedding but bringing bb along cus we can't imagine sharing our joy without her.

Anyway if you all think its a gd idea for the bday bash let me know k.
 
Vday - me also no plans...

weekend - actually i go everywhere with bb.
almost all shopping centres we hv been. :p

just last weekend, we went to prego for dinner with bb. he ate his cereal first in the resturant, then he sat in the high chair when we eat our dinner. :p

baby bash - can make it end jun?? 24th jun or 1st jul.. :p then my jun bb can join in! hahaha.. i saw April thread going to globetrotters at united sq. min 20babies to get the private room.
happy.gif
 
PM,
I use fisher price which i find very good. sensitive and it's got light indcator so when watching tv we can turn down the volume and the bars of lights will light up if there's noise from the room. It's very hardy as well. Dropped it a few times.
 
Hi misaryeo,

sometimes i prefer to stay at home too but I get very bored especially when bb wants to be carried and always want to play and dun want to sleep.

MTDT,
Wow your boy must be very obedient. I dun think my ger can sit on the high chair for too long..at most 10 mins.
 
halo mummies
just went to compass point with frens...4 adults including me..4 kids and 2 babies..hahaha..damn tiring to shop with all the bb and kids..came homew with a dry throat..cos kept shouting at the kids not to run abt..hehee...but at least able to buy some clothing for new yr...very tiring...haiz...

RE: VDay
hmm...cant remember celebrating Vday leh..hmmm...since paktor time till now ...never leh..aiyo..lagi sad manz...

RE: weekends
i only hv saturday to go shopping..but at tiems just wanna stay at hm and let hb take care of ian..sunday MIL day...at mil's hse whole day loh...i can only go shopping with my frens on weekdays after kids sch hrs...go shopping with hb...can die manz...cos i will happy happy go...black face back...hahahhaa
 
dsiitan, u very funny... but i share the same thots as u on "go shopping with hb...can die manz...cos i will happy happy go...black face back" ahhaha really spoil my mood...
 
misaryeo
haha..u too\??? cannot tahan hor???? for example buy clothes..ask nice or not...4ever ok loh...so-so..then when u decide to buy...u sure u want to buy meh? this design think u got liao rite? material not worth the $$$...wait for sales lah...etc...ended up put the clothes back n head for home...damn sian..no mood to shop liao manz...
 
dsii,
Yes, even when I leave him with my mum to go shopping, still feel some stress. Very rushed. And nowadays I keep finding myself in kiddy stores. Always come home with nothing I intended to buy for myself.
 
zoe
the only person i leave ian with is hb..so weekdays go shopping??? must bring ian loh...very tiring...after all the shouting n cashing after the kids...sometimes no mood to shop liao..hahahaha....especially carrying ian in sling ..then a big backpack behind...wah...damn sianz..damn sianz...hahahaha
 
dsii
Wow. Carrying Ian in sling is very tough. They're so heavy now. And I find it very warm using a sling. You don't use stroller? I bought a very light one the other day I'm very happy with. Now can take bus with Dylan no problems cos it's so light, can sling on shoulder. I haven't tried on the bus yet la.
 
Dsii and the rest,

Why do woman always ask us in the 1st place if they don't find the shirt,blouse or any other clothing nice in the 1st place. I learnt from my cousin when I went shopping with my mum and them when I was about 7 to 8 years old. They mention, just tell them nice, they buy liao then will go home. Tell them not nice, they put back walk around and choose again. So more suffering......After more than 20 years, I still remember this vividly in my mind.

So my advice is, if gals want to go shopping, go with sisters better. If I went shopping with my wife, I will just bring my boy to one place and play or go walk walk alone. Easier that way...lolz.
 
Hi Zoe,
I find it's not convenient to bring stroller onto bus, even though it's lightweight. Cos it's still bulky. Then gotta carry baby, carry bag & tap the linkcard leh? Then if bus moving off, no hands to grab the railings already. Lagi worst if the bus is crowded & no seats available. So I either carry my gal in sling or use my arms lor...

Dsii,
Compasspoint is bb-friendly. U c got lotsa bbs right? Also got nursing/changing room beside the foodcourt.

Just now went Chinatown to makan dinner. Wah lao waited for 1hr for our food, keep calling the waitress for abt 5 times. They say will check wif kitchen, but always nvr get back to us. In the end, we complained to the mgr, then found out the kitchen nvr cook our food!! &^%#! So angry! Then we just walk off without paying. Lucky they nvr asks us to pay for the pot of chinese tea, else I definitely give them HELL!

Then we walk around the CNY market with Kaylyn in the sling. Very noisy & warm, but she can doze off. Haa..haa...we still can queue up for the bak gua.
 
Liverpool,
Not all hubbies are like u lor...They dun comment when we ask their opinion during shopping...then when wanna pay or buy liao will start to make noise/nag. sigh...
 
Dsii,
I learnt to read my hubby's body language when I buy clothes. If he said so-so or okay, but he's not smiling, then I know he's just 'entertaining' me...But if he said very nice, I buy for u, then I know it's really nice...sigh...men...
 
Dsii,
my hubby like to shop but not with me when i look at clothes. However, he like me to come along when he need to get clothes for himself.

I dun really shop with him if i need to get clothes for myself. I like to do alone. No one disturbing me.

Carrier - i am using ergo now. I find it very gd, wun make my back ache and the support is gd.

Liverpool,
July bb bash? how?? I shld be celebrating Julian bday with frds and relatives. Too be fair to both kids since Janelle got a grand one when she turned 1
 
Wow..sometimes I really envy you guys..got time to come online. I wish I have some time to spare but my DS is very clingy to me. Now, he is everywhere and knocking his head too..haiz!!! Today DS slept early so, can log-in before I go to dreamland too.

YB- Thanks for the e-mail. Will be there on Sat.

Shopping with DH - DH and I tend to go shopping together when we need to get new clothes. We have been doing that since dating days.

Carrier - I too have changed to a carrier as DS now knows how to climb and sarong is just too dangerous. A carrier will strap him in...he!he!

Birthday Bash - Sounds like a good idea.
happy.gif
All ears!!!

Porridge - DS is not that good in swallowing the porridge either. 5-6 mouthful and that's that. Anymore, he will scream his head off. So, I tend to mix the Heinz Rice Cereal into his milk for each feed.
 
Dsii, Zoe,

I dun use sling anymore... find it very troublesome and hot for bb. When I go out alone, I always use the carrier. The brand that my hb bought not v. gd cus carry my girl for too long then backache but then dun wanna change cus she is already 7kg, 3kg more then cannot use.

I dun like going shopping with hb. Usually I shop alone. Haha better that way cus there is no time limit and can stay in whatever shop as long as i like haha. Hb will accompany me go shopping but limit to max 3-4 hrs. After that he super grumpy hehe but he knows how fast i shop, get what i need and out i go.

Super busy day. Made 40 pineapple tarts intending to give away for CNY however, now left with only 10 cus my in-laws and my family came over and eat eat eat. HB came home and pop a few in his mouth. Now baking another batch for him to take to work to munch on.
 
Not to sure if I can post this here...if not, apologies in advance.

I have a woodcraft denmark babycot which for sale. My son only slept on it ONCE and that was it as he prefers to co-sleep with us. Here's the specs of the babycot. Retailing at $290 but I am letting go at $174 (40% off). Here's the specs of the cot

To all SAHMs

Poem in Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul 2, written by Carol A Frink.

My CEO Is A Four-Year-Old
-------------------------

My CEO is a four-year-old,
the V.P.is just one.
From what my friends have told me,
my "fun" has just begun.

When the work force day is ending,
mine just seems to start
with dinner, baths and bedtime,
and lessons from the heart.

I may not fax and copy
or play that "corporate game",
but my hours are plenty long,
the work tiring just the same.

"Hostile take-overs" in my job,
involve a toy or two,
and most "successful mergers"
are done with Elmer's Glue.

My vacation time is little,
and sick days are no more.
And all important meetings
are on the bedroom floor.

While most can't wait to retire,
I hope my job NEVER ENDS,
Because in those smiling faces,
I've found my two BEST FRIENDS
 
Hong,

Actually I thought of something, but YLC mention she volunteer her place. So I thought you gals might prefer her place in the end. But I felt abit paiseh, cos will be like tagging along her baby bday bash, which seems grand to me with magic show, animal balloons, caricature for all kids etc.

I was thinking of booking the function room at my place (pending approval from my "boss" aka wife), everyone contribute some $ for a simple buffet lunch and a big big birthday cake. Some mummies can help in planning some activities if they volunteer.
 
Birthday Bash...I wan to go : )

SHOPPING...I think all men are the same hahaha, I feel veri stressful going shopping wif my hubby...cause he oways rush me : ( last weekend went to fox warehouse sale..rush until i forgot to bring back a packet of cloths that i paid for...dame angry...lucky not veri x
 
YB,
my boy nt feeling well recently.. if he is ok on sat i will go for gathering.
Mummies,
how to get rid of the plegm that my Boy have.. he is having running nose and cough for almost a week liao
 
Mummies FYI,
Do check the medicine given by the nurse from either clinic or hopital before you leave.

I wanted to put nose drop for my boy when i notice the label ( the one that tells u how much to put etc ) is different from the medicine.

Eg. label put Iliadin-Merck 0.01% (infant) but the medicine is Iliadin-Merck 0.05% ( not for infant and young children).

I called Mt A and the doc quickly call back to apologise.
 
Regarding shopping w hb: strange too... like liverpool says we shld choose to go choose clothes w sisters but then hb will say weekend is to accompany them cos weekdays working mah... then how to go... if we js left bb with hb, they'll complain...
 
Hi Mummies

Planning to bring baby to Batam over CNY. What to pack??? My hubby said like need to bring the whole house over...diapers, formula, cereal, toys....etc.
