zenn, hi-5! Ah des also started on eve.
Gd Morning!
Same as Cashewnut, indeed very suprised to see all babies holding on to a sippy cup, irregardless of teat, spout or straw. My girl don't like to drink water...help!!
The first time I knew she knows how to drink from a straw is....she insisted when she saw us drinking ice milk tea, my hb thinking that at most she will only bite the straw (as cannot drink leh), gave it to her, and after a few bites/sucks, saw that some milk tea dripped out from the corner of her mouth. Then end up fighting with her to withdraw the straw from her mouth. oh boy, end up her clothes, hb clothes, all sticky

afternoon mummies!
sherl:
don't worry... kienan also can't walk yet.
he doesn't even want to stand on his own without support though i'm quite sure he can do it.. haiz. don't want to force him too..cause i know he'll do it in his own time.
but the little tot likes us to hold his hand and walk with him. he doesn't want to stand on his own, or try taking a few steps on his own.. and yet wants to walk with us holding his hand! *faint!*
estelle and kimi very zai leh! can walk already.. hahaha..

hi jan mum
my boy is also not a great fan of water.. but i also just give it to him to drink.. over time, he's beginning to take more water already. thank God!
i just tried giving kienan water to drink from the mag mag straw spout cup.. and thankfully, he drank from it.. but not that much also lah, what he drank. i think the speed of drinking water from the straw spout is much faster than the step 2 spout.. hehe.
icy:
when i first tried giving kienan water from a straw, my friend taught me to hold one end of the straw with my finger and taking water from the cup, and let kienan drink from the other end.. think this way, he slowly learns how to such water from the straw.. then over time, you can put the straw vertically in the cup and let rachel suck..
you try?
but like what AMM/Zenn/Sherl says... no need to rush rachel lah. let her take her time.

Janjanmum,
From what I know Avent's magic cup only got the flat spout. Their straw cup only got big size one. Sugarbean was telling us that she heard Combi's sippy cups are better? Not sure in what sense also... but the straw is definitely slimmer than the magmag cup's one. So maybe that makes a diff? I find the combi straw top design better than magmag's one though.
Charmaine,
Same, Claire also doesn't want to stand on her own. She must have something to hold on to, even if it's just my little pinkie.
She refuses to take steps even with me holding her also, but at least now she will push her walker along.
Actually I'm not worried about her not walking yet, but you know sometimes people around you will make you kancheong when they keep asking why she's not walking and comment that she's very slow to start.

Agree with you Sherl. Actually, I'm quite comfy with them progressing at their own pace i.e. take their time to walk when they gain more confidence. But I've a nephew who's only 1 month older than my twins (but he was an overdue baby) and he's now even capable of running. It gets on my nerves when my FIL keeps comparing them cos my twins are still not walking yet!
Alethea,
yeah lo yeah lo. Claire is not even 13 months yet and some of my hubby's relatives already commented that she must be like daddy, slow to walk (coz my hubby only walked at 16 months). Then the more people who comment on that, the more kancheong you get, when at first you are quite ok one right??!!

Agreed with J&S and sherl. Some think that estelle is abit slow in walkin cos she was able to stand at 6mths but to me I don't see anything wrong since she enjoys crawling around. even now when she knows how to walk, at times she still likes to crawl around. as long as she is comfy i think its fine. afterall every bb is diff

I think esp when you have a batch of kids growing up in the family even when you dun want to be kiasu it's very hard not to because you just keep hearing people making comparisons between the babies all the time. My hubby and I always say luckily ours is 2007 baby coz there are 2 other Sep 06 babies in his family... if they attend same school year, will sure kena compared again!

hi hi mummies, how's everyone. happy birthday to everyone.

sherl - oh, combi also has, will go and take a look. Thanks so much Bec the magmag one, my mom bought a spout one, it leaks easily, maybe combi one will be better. Buying one for my girl's use at our own hse.
J&S - yr twins can walk already, right? As saw the pic in Changi Airport T3.
I agreed on the comparison, not talking only abt babies ard the same age in the hse. They will compare and tell me that their tot whom a few years older already started turning, crawling, walking lah ard 3mths, 4mths, 1yr old, respectively etc etc....sigh!
My girl is always a few mths slower.

Mymelody, I can feel the 1kg wakakkaka btw, I cannot find the email contact of that australian bp. Sherl, you have or not. Seems like Mildy got the same prob as you! Terrible hor. So expensive somemore this type of material.
Janjanmum, my twins can stand and take a few steps before sitting down again. Walking still hasn't come naturally to them yet. Sometimes, I get pek chek, and also ask them, 'Hey, pple can walk and run aldy, how come u both still want to crawl?!' But then I think again, like Sherl said, I will miss each milestone one, since time flies and I always don't spend enough time with them.

I tried the straw on Trisha today and amazingly she drank! I gave her normal straw to drink from 2 weeks agobut she don't want and keep biting the straw so I was quite surprised she sucked from the mag mag straw today.
icy - don't worry, I agree tat when our babies are ready, they really learn fast!

Hi Yvonne,
Thank you for your email.
Our main goal is for the children to be happy, so we ensure that the children are never forced to do something that they are uncomfortable to do. We do practice putting the children under water unless the coaches are confident that the child is ready and happy to do so. ;-) And yes, parents may exit the class at anytime should they feel that the child is too tired/sleepy,etc. Sometimes, the coaches may also recommend for the parents to sit by the poolside with the child if we observed that the child is feeling a little tired that day and maybe crying quite bit.
The showers are open for use for both the parent and children.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to email us. Thank you and have a nice day!
Best regards,
Lindy
