dear mommies, hope all the sick babies recover soon.
so sad to hear babies sick.....
edksd, were u the one who asked about the olive oil? if u cooking over fire, use normal olive oil, not the extra virgin one. extra virgin olive oil cannot be cooked over fire else it will release carcinogenic compounds. hope this helps.
brenda, good idea of urs to use coloured socks to teach A colours hehehe! u mean she can MATCh the colours oredi? wow!
hey mommies, i have a prob. Jovann is very very lazy with chewing. some time back he started chewing his food but now he stopped doing that again. when there's small pieces, he will just swallow! end up in his poo got small small bits of carrots, spinach etc. if the pcs too big, he will gag and refuse to eat. i cannot beleive i can still facing this prob at this age. the only time he chews is when i give him sliced fruits from our dinner table. then he will chew, but VERY slowly. sigh.
i feel it is coz the porridge texture at my mums and MIL plc is too soft. my dad still chops the spinach. my MIL still uses slow cooker for the porridge for 3 hours!!! i have tried telling both of them to stop doing that, coz its going against what i myself is doing, no wonder Jovann still so pampered. but my dad say as long as he eats (they always have hard time feeding Jovann), he wants to do all he can to help him eat! i asked my hubby to tell MIL not to use slow cooker anymore, or even if use, just cook 2hours max. but my hubby also feels as long as he eats, other things can try later. so mad!!! how how? anyone still using slow cooker to cook porridge so long anot? do you chop your vege? for me at home, i just pluck the spinach into small pcs, i dun even cut or chop it.same for brocoli, just cook and use spoon to mash before feed. i still blend meat though, anyone still doing all this? this qn meant for only babies who has less than 6 teeth hor! heehehee. those who have a full set of teeth oredi definitely wun need to worry about this.
if its biscuits he will chew! but not very vigorously, just chew a bit. if i feed him a bit of rice he will eat a bit also.
