Hi Mommies,

<font color="ff6000">doreen</font>
thanks for the advice...i didn't realise the calendula cream can be used for the diaper area...usually i use it on baby's face whenever her eczema (how to spell?) acts up...
<font color="ff6000">melissa</font>
i've been using destitin (regular) but friends have been telling me to get the one with aloe vera...they said its better, etc...problem is, i CAN'T find it...driving me bonkers...
i guess i'll just use the calendula cream and see how...
<font color="ff6000">pigeon and diana</font>
WOW, so cute lah! Ur hunny bees so SWEET and PRECIOUS!
<font color="ff6000">brenda</font>
Amazing picture! So beautiful, i can imagine just how wonderful the place is....*drool*drool*
U are one lucky lady!!!!
Very nice montage! I'm very impressed with the clarity of each pic!
<font color="ff6000">peachie</font>
hey babe, a MILLION thanks for sending me the pics...i haven't even downloaded mine from the camera (not even the BBNC pics!)
been so held up by domestic issues...my maid gave problems the last few days...she didn't want to eat, didn't want to sleep...say she keep "sensing" that her son is sick...

HAPPY 7th Month from Rae Ann! *kiss*kiss*
(sorry if i missed out anybody)
<font color="ff6000">jasmine</font>
i have given up weaning rae ann off the breast...she has never taken the bottle since she was 2 months old...
sometimes feel like knocking my head into the wall lah...coz its so stressful sometimes, esp since i also tend to latch her to sleep...
i guess for BF-ing it is also about the conditioning from the beginning...but i was so clueless and i had no one to help me to bottle train her...
also, in the 2nd mth, i had HIVES (previous helper fed me expired confinement food, and the alcohol kinda triggered my immune system to go bonkers), so i had to take TONNES of antihistamines to counter it...
as a result, my milk supply dipped (@ 2nd month leh) and so i had to keep latching her on to build supply all over again...and so, in the end...SHE rejected bottles...bleargh!!!
now i just take one day @ a time!
<font color="ff6000">michelle</font>

sms from Patsy @ 12am
Doctors are telling us we may have reached a point if no return for Sabie. Her blood acid level keeps going up and her body tissues still not accepting the oxygen. Please pray a miracle because that is the only thing that can save her now. We will still have faith.
GOD PLS HEAR OUR PRAYERS!!

Hi Mommies,
Such sad news really set a very solemn mood for the day. Let's pray that little Sabie and her family will be ok.
It makes us cherish our little ones more.

Happy 7th Month Birthday to cute-dimpled <font color="ff0000">Dylan</font> and handsome <font color="0000ff">Jovybuttons</font>! May you boys grow up smart and suave!
Hi Brenda and Cheekz,
No probs! It's always good to share share!
Other stuffs which you have to watch out for as known carcinogens but commonly present in our shampoos, lipstick etc are Hydrogen Peroxide, Dimethicone and Phthalates. Boric acids and the entire family of borates are known mutagens (will cause cell mutations), and are linked to fetal malformations. Anyway, the effect of carcinogens and mutagens will normally surface after a prolonged period of use, so do watch out for what you are using for yourselves as well!
Brenda,
I love the Aleenta and Racha resorts! Wish I am there right now! Hubby finds the place too ex leh... He suggested staying at some Sentosa resort then can put all of Clarence's barang barang in the car and drive across.... Hmmm.... shall see how. You tried out Spa Botanica at Beaufort hotel? You know whether it is good?
Hi emoments,
I love the pic of Dylan! So you have collected your photos from Coverlooks already! Mine still nowhere to be seen. Haiz.
Hi Rainnie,
Look forward to seeing you tomorrow. Yep, the donut store still has LONG LONG queue..... hehe, you need to take half day leave to join the merry queue.
You owe me $20.90 ($20 for borders, 90cts for the E).
Happy 7 months to all the babies in this forum! Time flies!!!! Soon we will be celebrating their first year birthday!

I want to COMPLain abt my mil!
Our relationship is usually amicable but she annoys me so much yesterday that I have no choice but to take it out on her son.. aka my hub!
Cos I only introduced rice cereal to Megan when she almost turned 6 months and just yesterday (before she turned 7 months) porridge was given to her for the first time. So during dinner, she had to talk to Megan: "u should have eaten porridge when u are 4 months... u are 3 months late already! Cos ur mummy keeps giving u cereal... which has so much fang fu ji!"... and on and on and on and on!
I REN!
Then after dinner at 8pm which is usually her sleeping time, i asked the maid to put her to the bed and pat her a bit. Usually after 5 minutes, Megan will fall asleep. But she and my FIL were talking so loudly in the living room so after 15 mins she was still not asleep. so she and my FIl went to her room and when they came out... this is their conversation: (in hokien)
MIL: baby haven't sleep, maid falling asleep by patting her.
FIL: how come baby mai koon (dun want to sleep), must make her sleep?
MIL: her lao bu (mother) lor... say she must go to bed at 8pm...
FIL: aiyoh.. mai koon then let her be lor
MIL: my children last time.. also never sleep so early!
Me cannot tahan: I think its because u are talking too loudly.. when u all are not around, she sleeps punctually at 8!!!!!
So they left after a while... and within minutes of their departure, Megan fell asleep at 830 pm!
I am annoyed because she likes to question abt my handling of baby by insinuating that what im doing is wrong!!

Rexbabie,
Relax! keep cool! It's clearly different school of thoughts here! MIL school and DIL school. There's no right or wrong in whoever. Both parties are right in their own way. Nevertheless, juz tolerate.... close one eye or one ear when they start saying things that are unpleasing to our ears....
Anyway, don't worry. u are not the only one with MIL issues... heeee! so don't get too upset!!! I think all MIL or DIL juz want the best for the bb.

rexabie, can understand ur frustration. but this kind of thing dun happen everyday, so just close 1 eye lor. i know easier said than do it.
i do not stay w in laws and in laws are not taking care of my bb. but whenever there's a chance, MIL will compare my bb w her daughter's bb (1 mth younger than mine) which i dislike.

Dearest September Mummies...
It pains my heart to hear an innocent little girl named Saby (Samantha Beatrice Wong) having a severe medical condition. There is a photo of her in this thread. Please pray for her.

Me looking forward to it. We will be bringing Clarence there with us, so probably cannot go for the couple spa... haiz.... We have to take turns to look after him.
All couple time seems to have disappeared after the baby arrived! Me and my husband hardly have more than 30mins to sit down and talk every day.

edksd,
yeah, DN has to take either soy-based milk or goat's milk. heard that goat's milk is very smelly! ugh! hahaha... haven't tried that but might have to, coz DN didn't like the soy-based milk we bought for him.
ilovebabies,
wah! the bouncy dots are so cute! hee hee...
DN broke out in serious rashes when he had the formula milk (we gave him enfapro). it looked like blisters at first, then subsided to 'flat' rashes. he was also super cranky that night, prob coz he was uncomfortable. it went away after abt 12 hours.
cheekz,
ah! sama-sama! i had childhood asthma, still have sinus and my mom & sis have sensitive skin. my hb's side all ok... so i'm the one that sabo DN! *faint* but i guess i gotta be careful with this guy. he's more prone to allergies, eczema and all that nonsense. aiyah! so did u buy extra photos from coverlooks?
peachie,
oh goodness, tell me abt it. i can't remember when was the last time my hb and i had a good talk. i miss that! *sigh*

Wheat
hey mummies, wonder if you've introduced your babies to wheat already? I think i read somewhere that it's better to intro wheat later coz it's prone to give allegies.
Also i noticed that most of the teething biscuits have wheat content and some have sugar n salt. Do you know of any that don't?

<font color="0077aa">J@@n ah</font>, you're putting DN on soy based milk now is it?
<font color="0077aa">Peachie</font>, no problem
with the PM info..
As for your hols, how about Bintan? there's a 2 bedroom villa at Indra Maya that goes for abt S$600 per night with pool facing sea, I used to bring my whole family there and it's not too bad too
Yes, I've been to both the Spa and also stayed in the hotel quite a few times. Spa Botanica is considerably the nicest Spa in SG, in my opinion. That is in terms of its spa's ambience and the environment. If you're getting a massage within the spa premise itself, ask for the outdoor pavilion if not you'll be put in a massage room that has no difference from any other Spas, 4 walls and a ceiling! But do make sure u do your massage at about 5pm when the sun is setting, otherwise you'll be swimming in perspiration with a layer of oil while the masseue (spell?) rubs! heehee.. It's just too hot to get an outdoor massage with our kinda weather urrggghhh
Ask for a Thai masseue, they're usually better than our local ones and do bring your bathing suit along for a mud dip!
Ambience: 8/10
Service: 6/10
Value for $$: 7/10
As for the hotel - The Sentosa Resort (formerly Beaufort), u can either take the regular deluxe room which goes about S$350.00 per night. We usually go for their package deal so the per night rate is lower than the ala carte prices.. They also have a very very nice villa which I adore, but it's also S$1,800 per night but it's really very nice.. 1 of my gfs did her wedding solemnization there in that villa, they done up the place really sweet!
Holiday Inn Batam also has a quite nice Spa too, hotel so so la but the Spa is simliar to Spa Botanica but prices are at least 30% lower! It's called the Tea Tree Spa..
Ambience: 8/10
Service: 8/10
Value for $$: 9/10
But the hotel is very 3-4 stars la, I think per night is less than S$100.. that's the only set back. If you can be away for a day trip then maybe it's worth making a trip there. That means go in the morning and come back before dinner. I did that many times.. so u can leave Clarence with caretaker then scoot off for some relaxing hours also not bad la.. but if u choose to bring Clarence and stay for couple nights (keep it max 2 nights or else it'll get boring!), also feasible for this place..
Really depends on what you prefer
<font color="0077aa">rexbabie</font>, that's why we need a www.i-hate-my-mil.com.. Haiz that's life, guess we all need to learn to live with this..
<font color="0077aa">cheekz</font>, oh helper as in FDW ahh.. they might not know how to handle food properly I guess..
<font color="0077aa">Ling ah</font>, ooooi!! were u sleeping when I touched on this during the puree class? hmm *spank!* heehee..
Yes, wheat contains gluten, so does rye, some oats etc.. all can cause gluten intolerance (means digestive system fails to breakdown gluten) which leads to the coeliac disease (http://www.medinfo.co.uk/conditions/coeliac.html), a very common disease. This disease can appear later in life and also can lasts life. Our 6/7 months old babies' digestive system might be too immature to digest gluten so it's better not to feed them anything that contains gluten now. Most sources suggest delay gluten intake till 8/9 months and above.. And yes, most biscuits contain wheat.. So buy RICE based biscuits such as 'Baby Bites' (can find in most supermarkets) instead, also RICE based cereal.. Oh, that also means delay in introducing Oat and Wheat cereal..
Hope this helps
<font color="0077aa">Peachie</font>, no problem
As for your hols, how about Bintan? there's a 2 bedroom villa at Indra Maya that goes for abt S$600 per night with pool facing sea, I used to bring my whole family there and it's not too bad too
Yes, I've been to both the Spa and also stayed in the hotel quite a few times. Spa Botanica is considerably the nicest Spa in SG, in my opinion. That is in terms of its spa's ambience and the environment. If you're getting a massage within the spa premise itself, ask for the outdoor pavilion if not you'll be put in a massage room that has no difference from any other Spas, 4 walls and a ceiling!

Gosh! I've not started Gabe on FM yet. So many choices I'm utterly lost and have no idea which to give so I decided to stop pondering for the moment. Have u tried the goat's milk? Is DN ok with it?
