hihi,

REPLACING MILK FEEDS WITH SOLIDS

I agree that we don't replace ALL milk feeds! However, i read & this is agreed by my PD that by 7-8 months, we should progress to 2 solid meals (1 serving bowl size) and 3 milk feeds of ~200ml (total per day min 500ml).

so, from 6 months onwards, we must try to gradually increase the solid intake.. from teaspoons to tablespoons and on to 1 bowl... this might consist of half bowl of carbo (cereal/ porridge/ oatmeal etc) 1/4 bowl of veg/ fruits etc and maybe biscuits bah..

my jadelle is one of youngest in this thread, so, i also very slow..
she has tried apple, rice cereal,brown rice cereal, porridge, green bean..

today she will try carrot with her porridge..

she is taking like 2 tablespoons of porridge/ cereals/ purees now, and we still give her her milk feed after that. We are also introducing cup feeding to her... using a plastic cup.. and we allow her to try to hold it herself.. with just a bit of water inside.. heard younger babies more malleable to new stuff!

 

[adelgirl]

Butter8 going??

[freshies22]

Rain,bbabyboy - working in Orchard? which part?

 

[adelgirl]

Hi Julie,

Not working in orchard, u hv lobang? kekeke

 

[leia]

piyo,

22nd flr no good lah. 29th flr better, that's why he ask you got opening or not.

About u-tube, dunno how to copy leh. Din see any function for that. Perhaps the next gathering, bring a thumbdrive/SD card and I copy over for you. Make sure enough space.

SuperDad,

Haven't upload yet. Will do it now... There'll be about 4 video clips.

 

[yamyam]

Similar to Jasmine,

My baby's daily intake includes 3 milk feed amounting to a total amount of 18 - 20 oz and 3 solids. However, her breakfast is less maybe just 60ml to 75ml cereals because it takes place 30minutes after her morning milk. (Prefer to have only 1 breakfast session)

Also read that for babies up to 1 year old, minimum milk intake should still maintained at 20oz daily. Most of the books also say egg to be given at later stage like 1. But, KKH website on weaning, they recommend introducing egg at 7 - 9 months.For me, I will introduce egg later.

Mummies, do you trim or cut your own's baby hair or you bring them to salons. If outside, any recommendations?

 

[secret_garden]

Leia,
your hubby is on South Tower right? me on North Tower leh!!! where got good???

okie I bring my thumbdrive next time! at Smlow's gathering?

[leia]

Mommies with blog,

Can PM me or not? I like to read blogs.

 

[yamyam]

piyo,
Rae is also very easily distracted now especially when she's on sitting position as she will turn or try to crawl away.

So, whenever I do the flashcard, I will bring her to the room, make her lie down on her back on the bed and do the flashcards. Ironically, the quicker I flash, the more attentive she will be.

I will finish the Equation Session of the maths program this week. Will start her on English and Mandarin cards next week and will continue the Problem Solving Session only on weekends as really don't have time in the day to do all the 3.

 

[yamyam]

Mummies,

Have you already change the teats of the milk bottle? Like for those using NUK, have you changed to teats for 6 months onwards? Is it necessary to change ?

 

[encheong]

[encheong]

hi amy,
I change it since he was 3mth old..

 

[honeyhaven]

Hi Amy
I have changed the teats for my boy to 6 mths onwards. This is the second time i change. The first time change is when he is 3 mths old. I heard the teats have to change every 3 mths.

 

[yamyam]

Thanks Superdad & honeyhaven,

I forgot that for hygenic reason,I should also change the teats. I'm just not sure whether to now get those that is bigger in size or the same one.

 

[adelgirl]

Hi Amy,
