belle: if u keep feeding milk when they wake up, u r encouraging them to have this habit leh. So by giving water, once they learn there will not be milk, they will drink more and learn to sleep though.
Do u install cam to watch your maid when you are not around? what time does pete get home?

mummies, I feel a sense of relief. I just learnt from my maid agency, that my previous maid will be going home tomorrow! Yipee! I am happy for her also la, that her family managed to pay off and she can go home.. and my liability for her is over too coz work permit is cancelled yesterday. At least now I don't have to worry about her anymore.

Pink, Germaine, Ash, Starfruit, RR: Wha now than I know so many mummies shopped from that link? Heheh..
Star, Belle: Yes, I've read that giving babies milk when they wake up at night is encouraging them to wake up for milk. However, I don't think it applied to all babies though. Anna was ok, Ayden took longer, and meimei needs her milk, else she'll cry the whole house down.
When we gave water, she could finish the whole 260ml bottle and that was still not enough. My maid gave her milk and we discovered once she had her fill, she will guai guai go back to sleep.

Hey, I found a good place for our gathering next time. IKEA! No mrt but I think there's a complementary bus service which ferries people from the nearby mrts? (Need to confirm with mums who don't drive though..)
The canteen sells quite decent food.
Just brought Anna there for the meat balls. There's a Christmas set (with turkey) now too.

yo... come in for a peep.
autum! what a big relief! cause she is problematic la. like a bomb cause i still remember her etopic pregn incident. haha~
AAA, i tried and tried and concluded that ah will wake up for fun oni. so i dare to feed water now
i let him drink 20ml water, he sleeps for 2-3 hours. let him drink 80ml milk, 100ml, also 203 hours wake up. day time refuse to drink milk somemore. so i decided to give it a try, i might fail though. but if i dun try, he wont want to drink milk in the day then night time come kacau me.
now 12am if he wakes up, i feed milk. after tat no more... water until 6am or later.
his drinking pattern v jialat. each time 80-100ml, or less. every 3-4 hours. so a bit low.
but i see him a bit bui bui then i tried lor.
i hope i dun bring him any torture.
blur, i am desperate la. i need to sleep.

QQ,
I also think the feed water method work for some kids only. It didn't work for Reyden. He'll scream the whole house down if we give him water instead of milk in the middle of night. And he only slept thru after 18mths. :S
Ah will don't take pacifier? For Reyes, we just gave her paci and she slept thru at 2-3mths.

RR: Thats true. We can deposit the kids and be kids-free for at least 1 hour. Haha!! So when is the next gathering? Its very crowded when I was there this afternoon. Very surprised!
Ash: Yah, don't have to buy anything. Hehe..
Star: I was there for tea cos I wanted to avoid the lunch crowd. But it was still very crowded when I arrived at abt 2 plus. I like their meat balls. Rather, I like the sauce and the cranberry jam, I always asked for more.
The chicken is tough? How abt the turkey? I would like to try that next time.
Ecmom: I've placed the orders. My discount is only 25%, not so big deal lah.

QQ,
Yar, it worked for me. But then of course, YT forever low milk intake one mah. I close one eye lar. Oh and she started solids close to the end of the 4th month cuz she hates milk. I 'talk' to her too. I told her mummy needs to work and cannot take it if she wakes in the middle of the night. So I think after about 1 week of water feeding, she slept from 12 am to 5 or 6am, can't remember liao but around there.

I just found out 2 of my friends are expecting their #3! And like me, they each have 1G and 1B. Hmm.. I really think the govt's plan is slowly taking effect on people..

Hey, talking abt sleeping through the night., rather the not sleeping through the night.. Ayden is still not consistently sleeping through yet. *sighz* I wonder what's wrong. He doesnt wake up for milk, not even water. He's dropped that habit for a long time. The difficult thing abt him waking up is that he will continually wake up a few times the same night, at intervals of maybe half an hour and it can be as many as 5 to 6 times per night? It's super disruptive!

Mejo: He wakes up, cries "don't want, don't want" most of the time, (not sure if the waking up or the crying comes first though), and he'll sometimes kick his legs while still lying in bed. Even if he doesn't cry out, he'll go eh, eh, eh", it's as if he's having a nightmare.. Then he'll want to come sleep with my hubby. And equaly tiring, no matter how many times and how disruptive a sleep he's had for the night, he'll wake up at abt 6am (sometimes earlier) and will demand to go downstairs. And he'll scream if we tell him to wait a while, or to sleep longer.
In fact, he cries whenever the answer we give him is negative, regardless of what his request is.
He'e a super high maintenance child.

Mejo: If she goes back to sleep on her own without being any more disruptive to the adults, then it's really ok. I'll trade that in without hesitation with what ayden is exhibiting now.

Mejo: I dont think hes being over stimulated though. Cos this has been his habit for a long time, whatever he does before sleeping. Each time there's a period (a few days at most) where he only wakes up once and goes back to sleep on his own, we tell ourselves the worst is going to be over soon, but his disruptive self comes back again without fail.

To the extent sometimes I ask if he's just being naughty. Cos when I really buay tahan him, I'll threaten with the cane. Should I use the cane in such an incidence?
AAA,
Hmm, I dunno cuz YT sleeps beside me every night anyway. Probably she will disturb us if I'm not sleeping beside her. She will wake up, touch us to see if we are still there and then go back to sleep. Sometimes she will even feel around our faces to check that it is the right person beside her.

AAA,
I don't think he is being notti per se but that is his natural sleep wake cycle. He is probably a light sleeper. But I still suggest you try a wind-down routine. Like shower him, let him do some quiet activities and then read him a book before he sleep. Last time I will also give YT a massage after shower too. It seem to help.

Mejo: He's on full-day cc. I go bring him back at abt 6pm, then he'll have his dinner, and then he'll take a shower. Hubby will be back and we'll all be in the family room. These days, the winding down is playing on the iphone for anna and ayden while meimei walks abt. Before we had the iphones, we'll sometimes let them listen to children songs on utubes. Then the maids will bring their milk at ard 7:50 - 8pm, they'll drink their milk, brush their teeth, and lights out.. This has been the routine since forever. There's no change.. So why liddat?

HN: Yah. The 2As have been sleeping with us for some time, before meimei's arrival. I feel he's insecure too, and it's prob the reason he comes over to sleep with papa when he wakes up. I'll try the teddy bear method, altho he has no habit of hugging even his bolster. He doesn't even like his blanket sometimes.

ecmom: US is one day behind us. I just got the email yesterday and placed the orders this afternoon. In any case, it can't be re-used, so it's a moot point.
Going for supper.. Back to yak and order SB stuff later..

Belle,
it's optional, right? You can try out for a term and see if Chloe likes. RR tried out music and speech & drama for this year and both prefer the music so will probably continue with that for next year. It's $160 per term (3 mths) for each enrichment so quite the same bah.
