good leh..

yesterday nobody there ma. only us.. then she chatted until non stop, untill we at door step, still chatted. then after that we went collect med, she came out still chat, then we bye bye liao. she bye bye. haha!!
happy.gif
 
clever bb: i thnk generaly bb at this era is smart loh.. with all the vitamins we eating before they come out. but each bb diff personality diff teaching.. so all mummies don't stress k? ultimately we want bb to grow healthy and HAPPY.. rite?? jst don't get bully can liao...

QQ: wah the PD good leh...

Carol: how come so good today half day for shopping ah..kekek
 
carol: happy life. can go shopping huh?

pax: the other time u mentioned that cooked meat mince.. can just dumped into cool water.. and they will seperate by themselves? ehh.. tried that.. but still lumpy lei..
 
see yee, i guess the reason to separate place for food and for play is just to prevent baby from getting confused btn feed time and play time. and also to avoid distraction from food. but if it works well for yr boy so far then it shld be ok.

astro, now i know why anthea wont crawl and has no intention to learn. coz whenever i put her on her belly, she wld cry. then i will pick her up. same thing when she cant reach wat she wants. she cries, i surrender
sad.gif
i just cant stand her crying. how to leave them crying so that they will learn?? very difficult leh...
 
see yee..
really need to see pd cause behavioural problem? now got serious behavioural problem meh? huh, not sure leh. cause i no sick no doctor one.

edde, maybe can try this.
say when anthea wants a toy, then cried. then u bring the toy to her. tell her that she can get the toy by herself. Then u put the toy a bit further from her, not putting it to her hands. then u encourage her to pick up. (at least got pickup skills ma). next time when she cried, then place the toy near to her. she will pick. after a while, the when she crys then u ask her to pick up herself. how? we can help them sometimes, guide them. but when we confirm she has the ability then let them do it.
 
edde: yalor!! teng also like that!!!!!!!!!!! and will cry till hysterical kind.. big big tears.. then give u a 'hate u ' look ah!! chey.. i should have coninute on my tummy time last time.. and just him spit all he wants.. at most i clear up lor.. now got another bigger problem.. sian..
anthea also bully u.. spank her on her buttocks! .. ok.. i think i need to seek advice from Dr ong on this liao..
 
QQ: tried that.. dun work.. u want to see how far teng can stretch to reach a toy while bum still rooted to the floor??? .. and he is ok if too far.. dun take lor.. and then he fiddles with his hands lor.. easy laid back attitdue.. courtesy of miser..

think for teng.. really must let him cry.. and me be the sadist. sian..

i think what TSY meant is persistent irritating problems lah.. not SEROIOUS behaviour problems per sat.. but then again. anything can escalte into serious problems if left unchecked.. like picky with food.. when escalate.. become refused to eat.. quite serious wor
 
QQ, anthea is exactly like teng.. i tried yr method, move the toy nearer to her so that she can stretch and pick up. then i try to place it further and further everytime to a point when she tried and tried, cant reach and give up, dun try anymore. she is as guai lan as me, "dun give me? suan le lor, i dun take" kinda attitude.
 
Hi Edde,

Maybe i shld separate food and place so that he won't be confused. Maybe now he's alright with it, but who knws when he grow bigger, don knw wat the impact will be.
 
tryin to clear leave. taking again next wk & the following wk.

so tough to b mommies nowadays. bcos we know so much, we encounter more problems.
 
edde: u guai lan huh??.. me also. in fact when teng first born.. my younger uncle came visit me in hosiptal.. straight away said teng got the 'guai lan' look.. takes after me! then i thought he teasing me onli. then the more i think.. the more it is ah!!! then kindermusik.. i posted the phots right? the one teng buay song..coz can't sleep.. exactly my look ah when i buay song ah!! alamak.. *faint*
 
see yee, i have seen toddlers who eat while playing. you imagine a toddler playing toys while the caregiver (usually the maid) holding on to a plate of food and waiting for the toddler to open his/her mouth to be fed. i think this is not a gd eating habit. so i am trying my best to foster gd habit with anthea. why i said "trying" coz i also give in to giving her toys when she refuses to eat. sigh... very hard to bring up a good child hor...
 
astro, haha.. i can imagine !! so next time u cant scold teng for being guai lan liao lor... coz he will say u back haha!!

i am guai lan + ti ki. hubby said anthea's character takes aft me. siao liao lor.
 
edde: hbs.. chey. they spoil the child.. then everytime say child takes after bad temper of wives.. boo them.. miser also teng's bad temper comes from me.. then i tell him. all thanks to his slow genes.. teng is so slow.. ehh. but after visit to PD.. i have no more 'ammunition' to shoot him liao. he will say.." see lah.. all ur fault.. always sit him up when he cries.. i want train him.. u cannot tahan crying.." what the ...
 
Hi Astro,

Yup...that's wat i mean...heee...
sometime, i don know y my son whenever i tried to pat him to sleep, he will keep on crying and even though he looks and feels tired, he still don want to sleep... he will make a big fuss and cry before sleeping...

was wondering is it normal???heee..
 
tsy: tt's normal. my son oso like tt. look so tired liao but still dun wan to sleep. sometimes i try to distract him by playing a bit more to make him more tired. then can KO liao
 
wow pax
Dr Ong sounds good! but i cant be bringing leia there just to analyse her character now hahhaha..maybe when i want to bring her for pneumo jab.
have u brought jo for that?
why jo is chilli? more demanding than matthew?

QQ
not bad liao, at least u can make Tian sit in her hi chair to eat. Leia cannot, she starts moving a lot arching to the back and lick the cushion, lick the 'table' turn here turn there.
 
carol, ya lor. that day my hb commented that i know too much (but i feel that i know too little) then got lots of concerns and problems. in fact, he said that his frens and fren's wives all dunno anything. nanny said this then they ok this that.. sigh!

we went back msia 4 wedding, then my fren's dotter practically eats EVERYTHING, anything from the table... ??? she is only 10 months old. alamak. but still, we ere also like that when we were young ma.

edde, astro. teng and anthea smart leh. tian also dun like to crawl, but she dun scream for it. she just ignore and carry on with her toys that she can reach.. like dat called lazy? haha!!
 
edde, i give tian a spoon to play le. i tot wanna encourage her self feed, but she playing with it instead.. aiyo.. then i also wrong liao ah.

pink, tian also turn here turn there la. let her turn lor. then i also feed at the same time. high chair ma, can still eat.

see yee, is it your son din drink enough?? hard to sleep? last time tian underfed time also seriously crying cannot sleep.. (but veryyoung that time)
 
<font color="aa00aa">wah alot of bb sick hor. Sighh... i am also a baby cos i am sick as well. hahah... Am on mc for coughing. In fact I have been cough since Sept and is intermittent. Dr suspect i have micro asthma and he said is a kind of bacteria which I might have got it from Clyde. Now Clyde starts to have cough too. sigh...

re: Baby sleeping throughout
Clyde no longer sleep from 11pm to 7am. He starts to ask for milk at about 5am and get back to sleep again. So no undisturbed sleep for me.</font>
 
pink,
yup juz strap leia in high chair.
i also everytime put keira on high chair for every meal. dunno whether my MIL got or not, though. hmmmmm....
she also turn here n there, sometimes where feedin her, she can go lick the top. if not, rub her smeared face on the high chair.
then i will scold her, I will tell her, u notti gal, make mummy do extra work now, have to clean the cushion too!
if her mood is good, she will move her mouth to the spoon instead.
 
Hi Astro,

I didn't knw when bb are over-tired, they unable to sleep....hee....but must make him tired, if not he REALLY won't 1 to sleep 1...haiz...

Hi QQ, don think so leh....coz i will let him of the nite last feed before putting him to sleep, so don think he's not drinking enough....
 
seeyee. then nevermind. u pregnant liao then better no need to be so cao1 xin1. just get your hb or mil to do it.
happy.gif


michelle, i also strap..

side track....
eh, anyone using induction cooker? is it GOOD? is it electricity consuming??? my mum buying 1 for me, but i scareit will become a white elephant.
 
pink: must be firm in training them. i make sure he sits in high chair away fr TV when feeding. but i forgot abt no toys during feeding. sometimes after a few spoons started crying so try to use toys to distract. now i realise no use. dun wan means dun wan.
 
see yee,
my boy also refuse to sleep although he very tired...eyes swollen, got panda eyes.....
overall he sleep very little, about 2 hrs nap for the whole day only...

so stress reading on discipline issues...i also must do some reflections liao...
 
QQ, Michelle
i strap also useless..how to feed when she move here and there, must be good in aiming at her mouth..so sometimes she sits on my mum's lap, my mum hold her hands to stop her from moving while i aim and feed...hahaha

haiz..very sian now...going to be busy at work..die die...

im getting tricycle for my notti girl this weekend.
 
TSY: bbs these age.. from the time they wake up.. abt 2 hour to 2 hour 15 mins max... they tired liao.. though they might not show signs.. put to them to bed.. u will be surprised.. they will KO in a minutes or two.. max ma 10mins.. theywill not shown signs unless they are very very tired lao.. but then cried till cannot make it.. very jialt one..

the reason i prefer teng to be in a roubtine.. is it removes the guesswork for me.. look at clock. ok nap time.. put teng on bed.. give cloth. sucks to sleep.. within 5 mintues..

the past two days.. he haywired.. coz very sick.. then all schedule also haywired.. end up i gues shere and there. fed up. he crying 'unnecessarily'.. to get to sleep.. coz over tired.. sian.

good to have a routine.. if u dun have one yet.. easier to keep track also.. any thiny haywired.. like no drinking well. or not eating.. or sleeping lesser and lesser.. u got records to check .. if everyhting is so random.. then how to check and anaylse..??.. gf or no gf.. seriosuly dones't matter.. just a predictable set of timings/patterns for the bb.. good for everyone..
happy.gif


pink: does ur high chair comes with a tray? put some finger food to distract her?? while u quickly feed? first times hard.. but dun give in. eventually leia will sit at the high chair for u to feed one
happy.gif


LAdysol: i have feeling that Javier overtired.. and has a sleep assocaition so every time 9pm will wake up , scream then after 5 mins go back to sleep liao..
 
Jo more fierce than M... 1st day Dr Ong saw her at TMC, she said chilli liao, bcos her screams can tear the whole nursery down! :p fierce right? she can crawl all over M and M, too mild tempered, jus sit there and "cry"... terrible right? now she's cruising, crawling, standing, climbing stairs like nobody's biz. even push the ikea stool and walk!!!! and she's not even 9mths! i think i'm getting astro vv edgy... :p

pink
i think i'll let Jo take Pn jab only after 1yo at least.. vv painful jab wor.. jus jab 1 or 2x... 3x too painful, even for me...

astro
yes. Dr Ong is on the TMC FBI card. that's part of the reason i'm seeing her.. heeee... $5 discount on consultation. and hor, Dr Ong really chatty one... i like her and her clinic is usually not crowded... u will like her, i think.

i must ask Dr Ong for commission liao! haahahah
 
hi hi mummies,
been a busy day for me, back from MC and got so many things to do... sian.... i also scare i pass my cough to my boy
 
i agree no TV during meals... as far as possible, no toys, but then sometimes vv difficult. the most impt thing is to teach them that they must sit down in their chair at the dining table (if possible) during meal times. if we're out and no high chair available, i'll jus feed her in her stroller. at least she's not "running" ard.
 
TSY: actually rocking bb to sleep..yaolan.. all these is because bbs dun give clear signs when they are tired.. we want to put them down. but they screamed.. not because they are not tired lei.. they are too tired.. therefore can't go to sleep properly.. i know it's weird.. why hor? actually adults also.. too many things on our mind.. 'over stimulated'.. want to scream out loud liao..

the more we rock the bbs.. the more stimulated they are.. harder for them to sleep.. that;s why eventually they need to rock themselves to sleep.. coz that;s the only way that they have learned to go to sleep.. pacifier, suckling on breast.. etc.. they can also make up with more sleep in the day. audlts chaim lor.. but then again. when they wake up in the middle of the night.. when they should be sleeping. they are not getting enough sleep also.. like that also not good in the long run lah..
 
Pax: ah bish!! i cool..i cool... my boy not slow.. he clever.. he bullying me hor!! :p.. teng can cruise. but he lets go of his hands.. and dun hold on leh.. how to make him hold on to the edges ah?? let him fall??

yalor. i going to tell Dr Ong.. i recommended by PAx.. pls give discount.. :p

i think some toys to distrct inevitable lah. sometimes teng wants to 'mayor' round the house.. no hcoice.. let him down. let him mayor.. but the last spn ful of food must be seated in the high chair.. else jialat.. next time he bigger i run after him to feed him?? pls lor.. he can starve. i wun run.. :p
 
pax: u making me heart itchy itchy. liao.. i think dun procastinate lkiao. i go make appt with her one of these days.. siao liao.. Miser wiill curse at u liao.. :p another amt of money down the drain.. but it's ok.. if i can finally find my perfect match.. :p:p.. skali.. once Dr Ong sees Teng.. She will say.. "hmmm.. this boy is good match for pax's Jo".. :p

btw., the other day me was at suntec.. got one young bb.. 10mths plus.. walking wihtout support liao. and very well hor.. i think she is almost running liao.. *faint*.. but girls are always faster.. *finding exxcuse for teng.. :p:p*
 
astro
yes, let him fall. he'll learn.
previously, dun let Teng bully u. get him some toys to distract him. he run, u too old and too tired to run liao.. oops!

ladysol, see yee
i agree ur kids too tired liao, that's why cry cry cry. jus let them cry a little while, will sleep one..

re: JU JU BE
hey gals. those who got the be-mine... who's the lady selling this? i'm in love with be-mine. the one i have, i'm using for work. i wan to get another one for weekends.
 
Pax: very sorry hor.. me hoever 'old' is still younger than u.. this kind of age difference set in stone one lah. difficult to cover up or debate over one :p..

ok lor.. *turns to teng, "whey.. sorry hor. This auntie pax says u must fall hor. go box her.. really not my fault liao hor"*

*teng glares and 'screams' at pax*
 
pax: scientificaly proven. women mature faster than boys mah.. so start from young.. already like that liao
happy.gif
..


partner: it is better to be stressed now.. coz still got time to undo 'mistakes' then next time blown up of proportion. then sian ..
 
QQ/pax/YY/pink,
i just realised that i din give keira any toys when i feed her.
i only bring spoon, bowl and wet hanky.
nothin'else.
din even occur to me to give her toy when i feed her. LOL!
conclusion: Keira tam giak. coz after eating, still let her drink the remainder milk that i made to mix with her cereal. and hor, she will eat until the bowl is scrapped clean
 

pax/astro..
i know he is tired, but he refuse to sleep...
so i dun know how to make him fall asleep...
tried to carry/play music, he also dun wan..
