BBgirl,
lucky Anna, she sure has alot of toys leh. Reyden's legs couldn't touch the floor too, gotta hold on to him while he bounces. Make sme giddy.

Michelle,
how come you didn't get your cot? See Edde's post?

Edde,
I've got mine 2 weeks ago liao. Maybe can let Michelle know about the cot in the punggol forum.

Kelley,
ya, comparing holding hands to carrying & rocking, it's an easier job.

Luckily Reyes knows that her mummy is a lazy one. hahaha.
 
SQ,
I think the twins parents.. they are still positive. I suppose time will heal wounds.. but I read, another lady, her daughter is Sabie (died at 17months).. she recently got pregnant, but also just lost the pregnancy.. so I think she is suffering very badly now..

Astro,
ya.. EJ not my first. Actually the reason why I came into this motherhood forum when I first became preg with EJ, was because I was looking for support. I was very depressed at that time and cried every day for like a week (when I first know I preg).. But I didn't post in this thread about my previous preg until much much later (i think until after EJ was born).. cos I see that so many of the mummies here had so much hope, excitement and joy about their preg and I didn't want to scare anybody.. some of the very early mummies in this thread were Edde, Pepper, Pink, Veryberry.. Hey, I remember reading before that Teng also not your first preg right.. we all suffer hor..
 
SQ....
*droolz*...
yeah..i get the drift. but i got a few coach liao. The designs getting nicer leh. I gian to get one more.

But today i saw my colleague...she wearing tods shoes and tods belt...quite understated and nice. dun know wat to get leh....the ones they have online...like so loud.


astro.....
you can change it too...can customise also.
when i was just a little boy...i ask my mummy...wat will i be..will i be handsome..will i be rich...she tells me tenderly....que teng teng teng teng...watever will be..will be...
 
Autum,
you are talking about the support thread of the stillbirths? I follow that thread cos of the twins' story also. I found myself getting very depressed each time after I read the posts. Eventually, I just stopped going to that thread. If you are planning for a 2nd one better don't have too much negative thoughts.
 
Autum: ^5!!.. yeap.. that's why i went into depression after teng born also. me emotinally not stable.. and also one of the reasons why i quit teaching.. my insecurites all surfaced when preg with teng.. remembered that day was voting day.. and i cried all the way to voting centre.. after scan shows teng 'small for age'.. actually i ovulated later lah.. then i think the polling station puzzled.. wah. so patronitc huh? vote got such strong feelings ah? need cry one ah?! :p

haha.. SQ: miser too.. think we should intro the two of them to meet :p
 
audrey,
tod's tagline is "understated luxury" or did i confuse with another brand's?

there's one launched a few months ago. with many zips. nylon material. quite cool also. dunno if they have it on their website

alamak! i'm still here! beta go
 
*hugs autumn and astro*

come come...dun depress...we come come scrapbooking okie?
happy.gif
dan we share the joy of our babies that entered our lives...who bully us...who brings us so much happiness...and confuse us...but most importantly...who love us unconditionally.
 
SQ: good to hear that ur CIO seems to be succeeding...hey can i check, does YE still wakes up for nite feed when u implemented the CIO?
 
audrey ah.. how come u sure teng loves me unconditionally ah? he has that perpetual grin on his face lei these days. i seriously thinkig he laughing at me :p:p
 
I need to to "sort" out rae's nite feed before i CIO lah.. now i cannot 100% be sure if she definitely needs that 1 extra feed at nite??!! stress now

I scared i CIO and then actually she is hungry and NEED that nite feed. How to CIO and still have that 1 nite feed at 1am.. not possible right????
 
Irin: I want to have more kids.. SO don't mind buying more toys now.. Just hope I don't have to wait too long before the next one comes along..
happy.gif


QQ: Reminds me abt your post.. Yes lor.. She needs a playmate..
happy.gif
Good thing my nephew comes over every week.. They have some company.. I also feel she learns her standing and walking tips from him.. And of course some of the not so desirable habits..
happy.gif
They fight over toys. Yes, even at this young age, they are territorial. Watching them is like seeing "human nature" personified.
 
it just means that he knows that you love him..thats why he is always grinning. He feels secure...and you can bring him joy. And he selectively 'bullies' you..and not the miser. So you should feel honoured. They will only bully' people they love and trust...
happy.gif
 
audrey u very funny tonight.. u karaoke queen tonight ah? autum can join u..
i cannot sing la.. i dao sar voice..
cause my mum CIO me TOO much when i was young as an infant/toddler

astro autum, alamak. dun dwell on the past la. past is past.. look forward. guys are good in this. look forward.. whatever happens they can still eat, sleep and live as usual.

Sq, me hungry sia... no ice cream at home. i go eat some supper then oi oi liao.. hopefully tian dun wake up tonight. cause she drinks only 20 oz milk + 2 solid.. last feed 3 oz oni.. like that can last whole night? i also surprise.. dunno she is getting enough or not.
astro, when will bb drop their last feed? (as in 7pm feed).. they go straight into sleep withuot any food. last feed is solid.. iforgot.. got to dig out my book and refer a bit liao.
 
Irin: ya i saw ur post.. price too high anyway, theis kind of toys not suitable for my ger. She not teh active kind, she prefers toys with lots of push/sliding buttons and knobs.. she more interested in these.
 
audrey: i am beginning to see the smilarity between u and miser.. can win any argument.. *faint*..

ok. now i am going to feed the boy who feels so secure with me.. and selectively bullies me.. i am indeed so proud and honoured to be bullied :p:p

brb
 
autum, forgot to reply u.
tian eats only 1/4 bowl of the minibowl (tupper). so little ah.. but still she is full la then i dun force. If EJ is teething, then also less appetite bah. no need to force.. try to make differnt food (diff texture food?)
i repeat the same thing for lunch and dinner for tian leh, i lazy.
 
star!
haven't caught you online for so long liao.

no, she dropped her night feed since 3 months. before i go back to work. that's why i'm v sure she woke up now cos of bad zzz habits

having CIO twice, my advice (if you are interested) is don't CIO when you are in doubt. cos you are a very softhearted mummy right? then you might feel guilty about it.
 
Astro: alamak, we hold hand together lah..i think i starting CIO wither this weekend of next weekend leh, i dun want to wait liao.
Hey can i ask u har, u dun bash me hor.. u say u CIO to rid teng of his pacifier.. but he needs to suck on his blankie now right..I was just wondering if this is his replacement cos u took away his pacy?? will he cry if u remove this security blanket??
I was just thinking if i need something to replace "me" cos i CIO cos she too dependent on me helping her to sleep, so i was wondering to make it esier, do i need to give her something else, like a osft toy to hug to help her go to sleep??
 
Star: YEs, you got to rule out all possibilities/doubts before you start CIO. Else, you'll be half-hearted and the efforts might be wasted. Once you're sure it's not becos' there might be another reason for her behaviour such as she's hungry/thirsty, has a wet diaper, needs a hug, etc, then you can start.
 
QQ,
bel drop her last feed liao... her last milk is between 7.30pm-8pm. after tt KO. till next morning... if she wake up middle of the nite, will feed her water... if she don wan to drink, continue to pat her to slp...
happy.gif
 
QQ,
20oz? YE drinks less than that also. but i've never thot to be worried about her. haha.

and that's why you lost so much weight mah. just look at your fridge and mine and you can anticipate the size of their owners!
sad.gif
 
starfruit,
ya, same here. My gal also don't like these type of toys, only my boy likes. Reyes' a lazy gal, imagine her falling asleep in the jumperoo?!

BBgirl,
so you started to plan for #2 liao? ya, true. Can invest in toys if planning for another bb. Hope to hear good news from you soon.
happy.gif
 
QQ: Rae also can only stomach about 1/4 of mini bowl of porridge.. its been this amt for a long long time.. for cereals, also this amount.. thats y i say she small stomach mah.
 
SQ: ya rae definitely have bad sleeping habit.. i know cos she needs me to help her go back to sleep, when she cries, i have to pick her up and she immediately falls back to sleep ..so i know its bad zz association..she needs me to carry her, some nights, it can be quite bad, i can pick her up like every 45mins esp during the 8pm to 1am period. But like i say i think she needs a nite feed at 1plus am.. like this how to CIO.. will it work if i CIO her the rest of the time then at 1:30am, i pick her up to feed her. Will the CIO work thsi way??? i am so stress now, cos i cannot find case study with a problem like mine! But i am quite certain i need to CIO to rid her of her bad zzz habit lah. she is like YE just worst!
 
Yvonne: the best appetite/record i have ever seen Rae was only twice so far since i started her on solid.. and this best record is 1/2 a mini bowl of porridge!. dun worry lah, some bbs just have better appetite.. thats why bel so big and strong mah.
Oh i want to ask u leh, u say u wanna sign bel for 6 lessons. Hwo much is 6 lessons har.. i am keen leh.. need to check with hubby.
 
Irin: I don't know how to plan.. I'm quite blur with such things.. Cos we conceived our girl almost immediatley after we got married. And before I could buy an ovulation kit.
happy.gif
Now, I dunno where and how to plan leh.. You got tips?
 
SQ: i think she is getting fat from my BM..not the solid..hahaha.. i think my BM nutrient content has changed leh.. more fatty now..hehe maybe can drop the 1am nite feed to CIO hor, cos she got reserve now!
 
QQ: hmmm.. these kind of emotional trauma and hurt.. needs time to heal one coz it is solely felt by us alone.. and noone else can share the burden and hurt one... we are still recovering
happy.gif
 
Irin, yah, it's the thread for the stillborn.

Audrey, thanks for hugz.

QQ, thanks for feeding info.

re: looking ahead
well.. not that i want to dwell on the past but it was very traumatic for me then. then when I read the thread for the stillborn, it brought back a terrible ache in me. I mean, I am sad not just because I read that the experiences of those mummies.. I am sad because I have my own regrets. Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if things turned out differently.. you know it's always the "what ifs".. actually until today, there is still a nagging thought in my head if I did anything wrong which resulted in my failed preg. It's because I don't have an answer and I will never have an answer.. so I think deep in my heart, I will always have this ache.
 
baby Girl: buy a ovulation kit lah, i used it when iw as trying to conceive.. 1st time failed cos i think i might not have ovulated.. 2nd hit hit jackpot liao and out come little Rae..heheh. Good luck
happy.gif
 
star,
CIO only when you know for sure it's a bad zzz association. not when she's hungry lah.

ya, YE was zzz through the nite at 3 months. then she started waking earlier and earlier, and many more times a night. it's absurd how tired the three of us are in the morning. i buay tahan and finally CIO her
happy.gif
at least we are now more rested in the morning. else you can see us yawning away in the car wan...
 
Yvonne!
U mean Bel can eat 2 of the minibowl in one go?? the minibowl is the tupper one that many of us share to buy right?? I think EJ eats about 1/2 bowl of that at one go.
 


star: this blankie is different.. this is what we called a security object.. different from pacifier.. .. security ojects.. all bbs will have one.. irregardless of good/bad sleeping assoications.. it is something which makes them feel secure. not help them to go to sleep.. slightly different here..
happy.gif


ok.. put it this way.. when teng was young.. he was dependent on pacifier.. pacifer drops out/45mins later.. he will wake up crying..
now.. teng also 'dependent' on the napkin. .but he needs to just 'smell' it to feel secure.. i can take it away when he sleeps. and he wun wake up crying at all in the night..
