Baby in Car Seat...
Lately switched car seat from the carrier back facing type to the bigger and more comfortable front facing type for my boy. He's not all that keen to be in the car seat oftentimes. So what I did was to play the same cd (Sesame Street) in the car when he's to be in the car seat, and give him a toy to play with. Tested out on 3 different days last week. Seems to work.

Hi mummies
I went on leave, so last 4 days took care of Kayden by myself. I enjoyed my 4 days. I fed him half a egg yolk for 3 days. He is okay and shall wait till he is 1 year old to feed him egg white.
Talking
He is not talking yet, but seems to understand me. When I ask him things he will react by saying arr and I asked he again. He will arrr again. Is like having a conversation with me. When he sees people, he will aaaarrr to get people's attention. So funny.
Physical skills
My boy also crawling on his tummy but backwards sidewards and can turn round. Same pattern as yr girl. At least yr girl can move forward, he still can't. He has been with this moving backwards for a very long time. I wonder when he will move forward. He can pull to stand and walk a bit holding to the side of the furniture. He still prefer walking around holding my hands.
Your babies are so advance.

augbaby,
Can try the front facing type. Bigger, spacious and more comfy to sit on. I bought the Maxi Cosi Priori during the Robinsons sale in Feb this year for abt $199.
Jadon's ok with ears and hats/caps. But if it gets too hot, he'll have the tendency to pull them off. But if he's distracted enough with his surroundings, he'll leave them alone.

Hi catherine24,
I am using nuk and avent. I bought the avent according to baby's age. I thought 4 holes are suitable for babies above 6 months.

Hi augbaby,
I realised that ur boy looked a little like ur Dad leh
Mummies,
Last week, Justin leart to stand up on his own without any support. He will get on the squatting position and then suddenly just stand up. He will smile or grin when he stood up like he's happy with his new found achievement. Very proud that he's so strong and has good sense of balance...but scared too....cos once he happily stood up and then free fall and bumped his head on the tower fan.....oh boy...he cried so hard and me so heartbroken. I always so bad mummy, never catch him in time.
Also he loved to climb up the Thomas Engine toy rack i got for him. He'll use his hands to grib the top 2 trays and then use his legs to step on the big box below to get up. Of course, I'll put my hands around him just in case he falls. But again, he'll give that grin to show his victory. He's really like a monkey.

cj,
So you just steam the vege or what? Everyday I just give Jay fish + pork/chicken porridge then add side dish of steam pumpkin/sweet potatoes/potatoes + cai sim/spanich/asparagus. So maybe to him everyday's menu is the same lo. Did you bake/fried the food?
Augbaby,
I have not buy the new front facing car seat yet. Tot of buying the Aprica one but very ex lo. Then I find the seat's not as soft as the maxi cosy one le. Any good recommendation for car seat? Now Jay also dun like to use the stoller liao le, he likes to be carried lo. Tot of changing the car seat one to the toddler setting (Hope you understand what I mean as we are having the same stroller) so he can face front when we push him around. Then, I found that Jay too small size for the toddler's setting (he like want to fall out of the stroller like that!!)
You know I am thinking if I got preggy like you now, I will get a twin type lo. Hee. . .
Doris,
conglates!!! Post the photo here and let us share the joy le!
Racoon,
your boy so brave hor, my Jay very kia si one, he just dare not let go of his hand. Everytime I try to let him stand w/o support, he will grip very tight else he will just sit down instead! Buai tahan!!!
Piyo/Rain/kRis,

i haven been to concourse shops before so not sure. if u gonna order from website, i may join in, hav not surf the site yet.
cocomo,
Other than spinach which i blanch separately, the other vegs i jus throw inside the slow cooker, the cooking duration depend on which veg. Lazy hor? but i tik cooking together adds to the taste of the porridge as well. for the rice, i mix in some brown rice with white rice, i oso add in the SiSen powder from EYS during blending stage. So far, kaefer manage to finish his porridge but i tik will try out more variety of food/ cooking style soon.
Car Seat
From day 1, hav put kaefer into car seat on every single trip, so he gong gong jus sit in without too much fuss. currently am using both front facing one and rear facing ones he did not reject. maybe u can put the car seat at home and let jay get used to sitting inside while doing something he likes as a reward so he get used to it? otherwise, check if anything causing him any discomfort-- heat, fitting etc.

Crisann,
Ryan has 6 teeth now hehehe dunno if that is fast.. but he is constantly drooling and biting.
Some things to ask the mummies here:
Baby bottle food..
is it ok to feed baby with bottle food once every few days?
Instant porridge by nestle,
is this ok to feed also like once - 2 times a week?
any mummies using such 'instant' foods?
Drooling,
my boy is constantly drooling.. any other baby oso like this?
Hyper active baby,
