ladies,
the bb pix are soo cute! sorry i couldnt make it coz i was held up at ICA.

bobianah,
thanks for sharing the feeding tips. and i tot my bb was the only one w this bad habit of snackin n sleeping!

oh.. some feedback on the calendula cream (California Baby)..it is really good. bb cheek now is so much better...almost completely clear n smooth (except some on eye area which i dont dare to put).. used to have red red rashes, and then like dry dry scaly skin.. within 2 days of application can see results liao..

maybe can try this cream instead of using steroid based creams.

[choo]

hello mummies,

wow the gathering loook so fun!!all bbies are so CUTE!!! too bad i cant join as my bb has blocked nose n very cranky..

yest he slept only 2hr naps n cried almost whole day! i lost my patience n shouted at him

i was ald very tired n needed a quick nap but he just kept crying...tried all methods to soothe him but he just dun stop.....sigh....

vanessa,

congrats on being SAHM!! welcome!!

really not easy to be SAHM with a baby....but me surviving the second week...


anyone using mami poko? i use for my boy bt it always leak leh!dun know if its no good or i ddn't wear properly ....wet my shorts.bed.pillow...

 

[alabone]

hi,
yup. the babies were all so cute. couldn't stop snapping away.

afcai,
thanks for info regarding ntuc goodie bag. i've not collected mine yet. better bring hb to collect. goodie bag sounds good. hee

shihui,
aiyoh, don't worry about it leh. nat is ok. that's the prob with bringing stroller around... takes up lots of space... so when shops don't have much space, i don't dare to go in. then i just realised something - if i bring bb out in sling and happen to find a piece of clothing i like, then cannot try leh...

gan,
my camera skills not that great actually... take some pics still blur... not suppose to one. so i've decided i shall read the manual and learn how to use it. heehee.

sylk,
poor you... but at least your hb is willing to look after bb at night and he sounds like a great help ya? quite lucky in that aspect then. hope bb will be good and not give you much trouble when your hb goes away on his biz trips.

 

[deex2]

och
2mr supposed 2 go vanessa's pl 4 a mini gathering....wonder is it still on....never c vanessa this morning....if ve u join us with bb madeleine

starluster
thxs 4 the link

 

[alabone]

choo,
i'm using mamy poko size s for my girl and size m for my boy. never had probs with it leaking except when we leave it on bb for too long... heehee... too long for instance like for nat, i leave it for 9hrs... (sometimes forget to change... i use it for night only) is it the correct size for your bb?

 

[afcai]

<font color="0000A0">Hi alabone,</font>

u are welcome. do better collect within 2 month fr bb's birth date loh. bag quite nice. one need to bring bb's birth cert and the ntuc goodies bag redemption card which is given by hospital to the cashier of selected ntuc.

for those photo taken blur blur, one need to adjust the setting if one need to snap object near. there are few settings for distant object, near image, night vision etc...my hubby is gd at this and many ppls tot we bought postcard when we took pic of our honeymoon in NZ.

 

[ruffy_happy]

Choo,
Am using Mamy poko at night for Roy and it does not leak.. he can wear the whole night.

Hello mummies

Vanessa
Haiyo the gathering at your place is tomorrow ah? My cold has become cough liao, so dun think I wan to go and spread my virus.... sob sob... anymore gatherings???!


Choo
I am using MamyPoko also, it's very good, except that when we used the last few pieces of the NB for my girl, it leaked cos it's too small liao... Now change to S no prob already. you want to check if it's the right size?

Starluster
Where can we get this cream that you're talking abt? My bb also have rashes

 

[afcai]

Hi MBB,
the nutc (www.income.coop/newborn) u have mentioned I think is for policy thing. I did not collect it even I have the card so they will ask to buy policy which I dun intend to buy fr any of the 'strange' at kkh outlets. only want to get fr my own agent.

 

[starluster]

Dora,
Got it from a BP... there is one currently active. Check it out... http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/581296/660954.html?1170564855

 

[mbb]

sigh...i wan to buy e cream leh but collection so out of e way.

 

[bloom75]

berry, u r welcome... can let me test my skills on other bbs too!

kimi, so cool.. my bb only at the beginning stage of smiling..maybe cos at home no one laughs...

mbb... 57? she dont look her age leh!

afcai..wah not bad..for jan goodie bag i dont have item 1 and 2. only 3 and 4.

today is my first day back at work.sigh!

 

[afcai]

Hi Bloom,
oic. haa luckily, did the market survey fr dec - feb(feb bo biah need to collect liao) before collected.

 

[starluster]

mbb,
yah... very far from us. But can use postage.. i bought the calendula and aloe vera... postage (inclusive of bubblewrap, registered mail etc) was $4.50 if i didnt remember wrongly. But that bp was organized by another pax.

 

[doggiebb]

mbb

the mothercare sudocrem that i am using also cleared all my ger's eczema. maybe u could try also.

bloom

tks for helping me carry my ger yesterday too! first day back at work? *pat pat* afternoon already, very soon can go home liao!

 

[qsg]

Choo, Evee uses mame poko for nite no leaks too.

starluster, the aloe vera gel is for what use?

Mummies bottlefeeding your bbs, usually how long you take to bottle feed your bbs for each feed? Do they keep falling asleep?

 

[starluster]

QSG,
actually i ordered it when 3 or 4 month pregnant coz i was having very bad itch... and read that its really good.. so tot of tryin. But there was some problem with BP organizer, so I got the items only in Dec!

On the tub it says its for Face, Body, Diaper Area, Scrapes, Burns and Scars. Recommended for eczema & other skin sensitivities. But I havent used it yet.

Read before that the calendula cream is more effective for eczema though.

Yes! My bb keep napping oso.. Did u check out bobianah's post on how to train bb rgd bottlefeeding? Can try it out..

 

[alabone]

hi Mbb,
i still have the card. will post here tonight. at my mum's pl now. got a lot of places to collect.

mbb
thanks for smsing vanessa's addy!

Vanessa, chang n other "west side mommies"

sylk
wow, quite an experience for you to be alone...I can see it's not easy for you. We are already juggling to cope here in SG with our parents support, but you made it on your own!

hang in there!

starluster, qgs
hope u hv success feeding ur bbs. Another thing i do to wake bb up is to stroke her hands or put her in her cot and rub her chest. Sure wake up. But so far, being firm and holding bottle as i described abv, worked well. I'm waiting to see what new "tricks" my ah ger is going to devise this week to challenge us!

 

[diveera]

afcai
Were u the one that posted the info on fridge to go. Will u be buying? I'm considering as would like to continue bf when I return to work next month.

Is it more suitable to store milk in bottles or bags when using the fridge to go. Do we need to buy ice block?

 

[bobianah]

my bb is so botak compared to all the cutie pies.
