(2006/07) JULY 2006 MTB


Hong, Thanks. Hope Ryan is cooperative. hee

KLCC,
Yup, one of my friend told me to start early too, her daughter knows how to poo poo in the potty when she was ten mths or earlier, now at 16 mth she can use her hand to make the smelly sign to indicate she is done. But her method does not work for Ryan.
 
Potty Training:
I read that can start to train babies at around 18 months or so? no? I guess this is a very individual thing.
 
Hi melody,
My MIL have started my boy on poo poo training around he is around 9 months. So far ok. Like what KLCC says, he will have that "gei sai" look and face red red, then you will know it is coming. Then faster put her on potty. Then when he finish, he will ask us to carry him, so we know he finish poo poo liow. Sometimes he will run to us in his walker, then face red red, so we know he want to poo poo liow.
 
MamaAnne,
wah...your boy very handsome...next time go school will have a lot of girls chasing after him.
 
Hi peachsorbet,
Kristen's cake very nice and sweet leh.

Hong,
Your BIL very handsome leh. They both look very compatible. Lang Cai Nu: Mao leh.
 
Jasline,
wow Ryan is trained ard 9 mth, so now I guess your boy never poo on the diaper at all rite, and he even knows how to come to you when he needs to poo.
 
Melody,
I thought to train after 1 year, but my MIL says must train early, and she manages to do it leh. Except when night time when he is sleeping, sometimes when he need to poo, he will poo in his diaper. And sometimes when I cannot get the hint or I too slow, then he will poo in his diaper.
 
Jasline,
I also tried to potty train my Kay already. But so far unsuccessful. She's either too distracted by the toilet bowl or she keep shaking her legs & refused to poo. Once I put her diapers back on, she poo. Sigh. I think the toilet is a new environment for her. Need some time for her to get used before she starts concentrating on pooing Haaa..haa...

Jasline,

Some kids dun like the feeling of emptiness under her/his butt so refuse to poo. Doesnt feel secure. hahaha..

When I manage to put Julian on the potty, i will stay with him and goes "hmmm hmmm hmmm" with him. He find me amuse and smile and will follow me to "hmm hmm hmm" hopefully he will understand what hmm hmm mean soon.
 
Hong,

think i must put the boy in front of me the whole day and observe his facial expression liao.. sometime he can just happily play and run around inhis walker and come back with poo poo in his diaper..
 
HI mummies,

Found this verse in Straits Times "Mind Your Body". It's on parenting.

------------------------

A verse by an unknown author at the entrance of the Louisiana Children's Museum in New Orleans sums it up:

I tried to teach my child with books.
He gave me only puzzled looks.
I tried to teach my child with words.
They passed him by often unheard.
Despairingly I turned aside.
'How shall I teach my child?' I cried.
Into my hand he put the key.
'Come,' he said, 'play with me.'
 
Hi May,

This is often very true. Many times many parents want their children to learn more but end up distancing themselves from the kids, not able to understand their inner world..

Guess i am one of those...
 
I heard from my female colleagues that my office is haunted. almost fainted... some colleagues from next office say ever hear some hard knocking on the glass wall where no one is around. the time is around midnight... my hair stand when she explained. Another one say hear got 2 "ppl" having a conversation during the wee hours. i cant believe this is happening to my own office...
 
Thanks for the warm welcome

Been trying to toilet train my son too but still no success. Sigh. He knows the meaning of the Hmmm...Hmm.. sound. But if we make the sound when he has no poo, he will pout and cry. And his poo comes without warning one,so by the time we rush to the potty, too late liao.
 
Yeah i also see Caitz have that wanna poo poo look then will quickly bring her to the toilet to poo. When she is finished, she will take the toilet roll to indicate she is ready to wipe her backside hahaha so cute.
 
Hello and welcome Ahsoh. Why call yrself ahsoh? Hahaha.. so cute.

Hong - Yes, Emerson recovered fully, the rashes was gone yesterday..

Potty training - I have yet to start. Lots of excuses from me, first of all i very scare to wash away the poo from the potty, then i realised there's one that can attached to our adult toilet bowl. 2ndly, Emerson poos early in the morning, sometimes right after he wakes up. Now, I'll just wait for him to poo finish then bathe him at the same time. Maybe must start now lioa, then after that, no need to use wipes just wash with water?
How u all do it? Use water to wash or toilet paper (too rough for our bb) or still continue to use wipes?
 
Hi Mummies,

me too....have been a silent reader of this thread since later stage of prenancy. Recently saw all the mummies try so much effort to celebrate their bb's birthday! Got all kinds of birthday cake and poster!! really impress! My boy (Brayden) also a july bb, this coming Friday 1 year old!!! Can I join this thread for some chit chat?
 
Hi PM,

ahsoh bcos HB says I becoming more like ahsoh after having bb. He says that nowadays, the first thing I look at in the newspaper is ntuc adverts for diaper or milk powder discount or sales on baby stuff.
 
Hi Mummies,
Can i check with you, for teething will fever hit a temp of 38.6?
Ashley is down with fever since last nite but with no other symptoms except a few sounds of coughing. Feel her gums and they are hot also but dnt see any new teeth sprouting yet.

Mezzo,
shldnt but the kid immunity system will drop when she is teething. For Julian, he like to put his fingers in his mouth after touching here and there. No way for us to monitor him 24 hrs so we cant help that he swallow some germs along the way.
 
good morning mummies,

ethel melody hong n jul,

Thank you for the birthday wishes.

ethel,

happy belated bday to jedd

HI Dsii,

ya loh.. see you not around mah...

Hi Mezzo,

So far, my baby dun have fever while having teething period but maybe slightly higher than usual but not as high as yours. Have you bring her to see doc? or trying giving more water to cool her body?

Can see the leaders here is Hong, Dsii, MTDT & PM leh..

any babies here still like to put stuff into their mouth? mine still like to do that... very worried one day he might put small things into his mouth...
 
Welcome ahsoh.

YB,
Think have to give Kaylyn some time to get used. I also don't know how my MIL train my boy, really have to hand in to her for this, and she can set a timing for him to poo somemore. Every morning around 9am-10am, she will put him on the potty and slowly he really will poo around 9am-10am. These few months, he is having constipation, so his timing become haywired liow.

PM,
I also scare to wash away the poo in the potty, so what I do, is to cover the potty with a plastic bag, then when my boy poos, the poo will go into the plastic bag and I just throw away the plastic bag, and rinse the potty.

Mezzo17,
My boy has slight fever when teething. Maybe you want to bring him to see a doctor.

Hong,
My boy also like that, always like to put his fingers in the mouth. Even when he is drinking milk, he will poke 1 finger inside the mouth while drinking milk.

MamaAnne,
Your office haunted? Don't go home so late and don't stay in the office alone. Last time I work in a museum, and I think also haunted leh. Can always hear sound and can hear toilet flushing in the next cubicle when no one is in there.

Ya...my boy likes to put toys in his mouth, so what I do, I give him big toys that cannot stuff inside the mouth or gives him pacifier. I avoid giving small toys, unless I am by his side to watch him.
 
HI Jasline,

ya loh. haunted. so sary... hopefully i will not have any chance to stay late.. me those weak heart one... wait just stoned there.

My boy now is getting more and more naughty... dunno how to guide to the "correct" path leh...
 
Hi Mummies,
Im still monitoring ashley for today...fever is like on and off...if still persist like tis will bring her to see doc tonite..
thks for all your advice
 
Mamaanne - "Leader"?? Hahahaha.. no lah, the thread here is for sharing..how to lead?? Maybe we chat here since preg days so know each other well, u just stay put and post more! Yes, my boy is very very fond of putting things in his mouth...and chewing tissue paper away. Have to keep a look out for him, he likes to pop balls inside his mouth also. very dangerous!

Jasline - That's a good idea. I think i'll start next week. Weekend willgo buy a potty for him! Hahaha. BTW, u use wipes or toilet paper to clean his bum bum?

ah soh - haha!! my hubby also says that...n likes to criticise my tummy and bum bum after giving birth too. Are u SAHM? Many ppl like to associate SAHM --> Aunties or even Obasans. PENGZ..

joykel - Kevin is not okay yet? All the healing vibes for him!!! Jiayou!
 
These days, I dont really know how to pass time with Emerson when we alone at home. Sometimes I can tell he's quite bored also. When he's bored with his toys, he will walk around in circles.

I keep bringing him downstairs for a walk, i think he's going to be a playground kid very soon. Haiz. I dont want that to happen leh.

In the morning, after batheing I wil bring him down for breakfast, he eats abit of my breakfast and see birds flying around.

In the evening, bfore dinner time, will bring him down again, this time wil let him dowm to walk or play in the playgound and he'll be super happy..like just 'relaeased' ... .

HI PM,

jialat leh...
 
PM,
Haa..haa...same as me. I don't know wat to do with Kaylyn. She doesn't like to play alone at her playmat. After playing for a short while, she'll crawl to the sofa & stand by it. (cos I'm sitting at sofa watching TV)Sigh.

Everyday I keep wishing she'l sleep longer so I can nua at home. Then keep looking at watch to see what time hb comes back & bring us out for dinner.

Life so boring!
 
Mamaanne - got once my boy poo got some white white stuff in them, i suspet its tissue paper. Haha.

Zita - Haha, yah sometimes quite bore. I dunno how the others feel the same too? U take care arh! rest well..
