Think if o's feet 11cm now, u need to order a L. Tian also 11cm and QQ ordering L. Think XL might be too big.

Astro: U switch on the smallest ring of fire on ur stove, place the corningware (sorry just realised i type tupper in my last post..so silly), wait for about half a min then switch off fire. Pan should be warm to touch liao.
 
star: ok.. wah. delicate task. this yogurt making.. :p. anyway. ya have a link so that i can see the jar that u were talking abt? $10 one?

carol,
i dun use cotton wool to clean bb's face long ago...i use a face cloth and wipe over..haha...i just tell him, come clean face...then i wipe here and there...he will move alot coz he dun like...

yvonne,
that time when jaylen admitted kk, his nose block quite bad..the nurse used both the medicated and saline drop together...2weeks ago, jaylen oso down with flu...i used both and he recovered quite fast...u want to check with dr and see if it's ok to use both for bel?

wow! u and ya mil very guk luck...when jaylen or anyone of us sick,we dun do that..if we sick, wear mask...jaylen sick...bo bian..we just pop vit C

qq,
dun blame yaself lah...u mentioned that u and ya hb got sensitive skin rite? so mayb tian's skin follows both of u?
when jaylen kana bronchitis, the most common qn that dr alway asked is any of the members got sensitive nose, skin etc...so i am the only one who has loh...dr said link de...
no choice, i accept it...now jaylen better le...after taking the delrosa (vit c) advised by dr ong, his immune much better

think mayb ya nanny's plc very dusty so her skin reacted...ya plc clean clean mah...

for me, my skin cant touch grass...will have rashes de..once i rem, my frens sabo me...pour soft drinks on me...then b4 i can rinse off, my skin turn red with yi li yi li and itchy...they nearly freak out..since then, no more such sabo for me..whaha
 
yvonne,
ok, i think i better ring dr ong and ask abt the yolk issue..i got sensitive skin...dun want to risk...even fish, dr ong oso said wait awhile longer....
 
qq: actually calamine lotion came to my mind too.. but i dun like the powdery residue after it dries up. dunno if bb will lick it or not...haa..i forgot..maybe tian not like seth.. seth eats anything!!! sunblock was the only 'colorless' thing i can think of. plus serves 2 purposes oso ma..not so shocking la... heh. :p

re: yolk
i believe the mmr jab has egg yolk ingredient.. dats y our bbs need to 'try' yolk now to be sure they r not allergy to it. egg allergy is jus like any other food allergy. dun think has anything to do with sensitive skin. unless to say sensitive skin ppl prone to allergies, which i dun think so la...

jus to share:
jus like adults need a balanced diet, bbs too need a little of everything in a meal. i made sure seth has meat,veggie and grains/carbo and after dinner fruits 2 times a day. breakfast can be yogurt/cereal/fruits. nothing fanciful to remember. every cookin session i'll make sure i cook 2 meat dishes (1 dish includes chicken/pork/fish + greens of the week), 1 big veggie dish (usually potato/pumpkin/carrot + greens of the week + lentils/tofu), 2 fruits dishes (usually a tropical/seasonal fruit for lunch and apples+pear for dinner), plus stock of the week(veggie/meat stock). meal time jus take out 1 meat cube, 1 veggie cube + multi grain(lunch)/brown rice porridge(dinner), and 1 fruit cube. only thing to note is give the hard to digest food in the day (avocado, chicken/pork) and the easier to digest at night (apples, fish). do also try to give more carbo at dinner so bb can 'dong' thru the night without waking up for feed. so far his stools r manageable. the last time i gave him tofu+spinach+french beans+carrot+potato, he passed motion 4 times a day! soft n pasty stools.. maybe some of u mummies can try. =p not proven la.. jus super alot of s*** during that week till i ban the combi liao! if all else fails... PLEASE GIVE KARIHOME GOAT'S MILK!!! (full force gao gao... 7 oz full strength.. confirm chop n guarantee!)

ok..kpo out liao..good night mummies..sweet dreams babies. =)
 
Re: Yoghurt

Erm, my goat milk yoghurt failed. It remained watery even though got sour taste liao and taste very chalky, not nice. I suspect that I may have added too like milk powder. Made my second batch last night from Similac, haven't got chance to try yet. See how is it tomorrow.


Today DA YI MA finally visited!

Today bought YT to gymbo at Vivo. Wanted to go for lvl 3 at 11 am but there is no class so end up playing free play gym. For a moment both MIL and myself thought that the $15 is going to end up wasted cuz she just sit rooted to the spot, dun want to touch anything, fuss and whine when I tried to get her to climb the steps, slopes etc. But the gymbo lady very nice, passed us some balls and a bell to entice her. After a while, she warmed up to the place le, and climb all over. Amazingly, she can crab walk up the slide by holding on to the side (she tried to hold on to both sides but too arms span too little, only can hold on to one)but she doesn't like sliding down it (I hold on to her to slide her down) Btw, at this age, is it safe for them to slide down on their own? But hor, she kept licking all the stuffs also... esp the monkey bar, she hang on not just with her hands but her mouth as well... duh... So after a while, she'll protest if I take her away from the equipment even though I'm just moving her to another one. Lucky she din protest when we leave.

Starfruit,

PYF is me. Thanks.
 
joelle: i think rae allergic to Goat's milk. She broke out in rash leh (onher back) i added GM powder to her food for 2 days. Now stop for a while. I will test again next week, see if the GM is really the culprit.

Mejo: thanks for confirm. I tot it was u, cos its ur initials lah.

ok going to bed now. nite
 
astro,
i also go check liao.. e old man brand oats got salt content.... me go search for one that is suitable for baby lah, no choice..

regarding the salt on salmon, i wash away the salt before cooking.... ;p
yvonne,
i dun use any oil for salmon leh, cos salmon itself got oil liao... i also use cover when cook salmon... hehehe.. dun wanna an oily kitchen!!!
 
Hello mummies! I haven't been able to catch up with the posts cause too busy! Will read up the archives later..

Today first time we engage a part-time cleaner lady. She is cleaning now and it actually feel quite nice! haha.. i tell u, past few nites I was desperately trying to clear up some of the horrible stuff lying around in my hse before she comes today.. cos I don't want her to faint! But whatever I could clear was like 5percent only. Just now when she started, I really wanted to dig a hole and bury my head somewhere.. cos my house is so horrendously messy and dirty!

Luckily she didn't faint.. and she was quite nice.. she told me I am not the only one who is like that. She has seen many homes before and they were also terribly messy. Dunno is it she being polite or what.. hah! But I think I will be happy with her.. actually she has been cleaning my neighbour's house for quite a while and my neighbour told me she recommended the cleaner to her own sister and daughter.. so the trust level is very high.

edde,
what happened to your part-time cleaner huh? i remember u wanted to change the old one and u got a new one, but the new one was terrible rite? So now u clean by yourself ah?

ok, going to read archives now.
 
Mist: didn't read archvies?.. yesterday checked it out for u liao.. 3.7g salt for every 100g oasts right?? high hor??

try ReadyBrek.. porridge Oats for bbs and toddlers.. specifically for them...cooks same way as the old man brand of oats..
 
mash, i also dunno what egg that is wor... maybe u can ask the egg seller in those market? i dun buy egg now so no photo. sorry...

autum, i used back my old part time cleaner liao... luckily i nvr sacked her the last time... now she comes once a wk.. so far all my frens who got part time maids nvr regret having one coz she relieves us of so much chores and free our time for more impt stuff like our babies
happy.gif


intend to get a maid next june then i can train her during sch hols (if got no. 2 by then).. but my mum is toking me out of the maid idea. dunno leh... having a maid is like buying lottery, see luck one...
 
Good Morning Mummies

autum

sad.gif


starfruit
rae is catching up fast! should be looking chubby hor...wat did u eat?
btw did we transfer money when we first order shoo shoo shoes?

QQ
how much should i pay u tomorrow?

Mist
you dun look so fierce leh..i hope im more assertive like you, thats something i find lacking in me.

im going NLB to get the bb journal soon.

mash
rashes, going to see doc now..
i think its really the fancl pills, realise tat it stated - diarrhea and rashes in rare cases. strike 4D already lor

www.graze.g
 
pink,
really huh?? i look more wen rou?? hahaha... actually i am lah, jus that sometimes i know where my stand is, i will assert no matter what... hahaha

astro,
yeah, saw your post after i post.. hehehe.. okay, i go check out the baby oats.. maybe go see if vivio has that tomorrow, since going to gymboree...hehehe..
 
mash yalor skin no good very cham. but my not so good skin is always able to be covered.. not on my FACE at least. itseverywhere except face. haha!!
today so far so good (touch wood). tian is fine.. normally at nanny's place by this time go t outbreak liao.

astro. ya i increasing protein liao, i consider quite a lotleh. my porridge is cooked with chicken or pork stock (with some meat inside also-blended), then plus fish that i put 15 min before served. still not enough ah? then i give fruits also.. stupid la, i consider banana as fruits. weekends i give honeydew, papaya, peach, etc etc. weekday less variety. poor gal, her mama very busy and lazy recently. never read up and buck up with good information.

guess what? i am going to bring tian back to KL then we will have those small egg's egg yolk (according to edde) for her to try. Neh, those eggs are actually laid by those hens running around in a freefield instead of being locked in the farm. joelle, unfortunately its true that bb with sensitive skin are prone to have food allergies too. got to be extra careful. how come my goatmilk sample not here yet?

pink,
its RM49.90 x 2 + RM27 + SGD30 = roughly SGD 85.(3 big tins, 1 small tins) another 1 big 1 small loose tin i give u.
happy.gif
 
edde,
i also feel lucky cause i have partime maid once a week. otherwise i can die.. many friends including my boss commented that its too luxury to have that. but hor, i dun care la. cause i really cannot take it without helps in cleaning my house.

joelle. seth is very lucky leh. he is like having big feast every meal.. wah!! for me its a all in one thingy... haha!
 
Astro
I saw the Organic yogurt yday at NTUC, still selling at $10.45 leh...maybe price not jerk up yet. You can try to get it there instead of angmo supermarket.

Joelle
I'm fascinated with yr recipe always..u give me inspirations! Hahaha...btw, can I wait for the next batch of the drugstore stock to collect all from you?

Pinkpink

star, bbgirl thanks. i use bullet today. then tian poo liao. quite a lot. otherwise she will still in pain. she was so relief and kest smiling.
maybe should insert one before we go for important events like photoshoot, etc etc. haha! just kidding.

bbgirl, the antibiotic cream that u mention is for ME or TIAN? good ah. i can go buy ah? to beautify my legs. sigh! many dots...
 
mash. after u know about the yolk, u let me know ya. i guess i have to really consult her what to eat and what not to eat. cause it seems like when i give more variety of food, tian haywire. if i dun give so many food, then ok.. except constipation.
astro, yes. i do keep a record of tian's food, schedule & major changes.
 
Pink: No shoo shoo payment was collected when we started the spree.. cos i was not sure if we will hit the MOQ so didn;t ask for u all to pay that time. Now its confirm so collecting payment now lor. I think u joined too many BP and pay until u blur liao isit?

QQ: So tian finally poo-ed..so was it hard? Must be damn shiok for her. i need to insert bullet for rae too.. cos she never poo again! *sigh*.

Autum/edde: i think i will consider engaging a part time cleaner too if i start work next yr.
 
Hi mommies,

I am a Feb mommy, and i have a MANGO dress for sale.

Reason being, it is one size too big for me. i thought that after washing, it will shrink and fit me...but it did not...hmmm...

This dress is under the Winter'07 collection and some of the MANGO boutiques are still carrying it.

Retail price is SGD 75.
I am willing to let go at SGD 50.
Dress size - L

This dress has been washed once, but NOT worn out and jalan jalan before.

If you or any of your friends are interested, pls email me at [email protected]

Aiyo.. now then i finally finished reading the archives.. haha.. in between went for neighbour's 1yr old party, took nap etc..

EJ went for his 9-mth assessment today.. he weighs only 8.7kg at 74.5cm. I find that is very thin for a boy.. must try to fatten him liao!

re: constipation
QQ,
EJ eats porridge everyday at the IC leh. So I don't think it's the porridge that is constipating. Or maybe it is? At the IC, they feed him FRESH apple puree everyday. Maybe that is what really helps? On weekends, I don't feed him fruits at all. Cos we too lazy! I ever fed him mango (fresh) at home but that is if we happened to buy for ourselves. For apple, u can ask your nanny to make fresh everyday for Tian. Just use 1 apple everyday, if cannot finish, throw lor.. bo bian. The IC Cook, she takes the apple and grates it.. so that is considered 'puree' liao.

Ok, EJ's diet is actually very boring, cos every week he eats the same stuff. For breakfast it's cereal, lunch is porridge + veg puree + fresh appke, tea-break is root veg puree, no dinner but another feed at cereal at 8pm. Since I make 1 batch (for 7 days) on Sunday, for the whole week, he will eat the same thing for tea-break. But I find that he has little problems in that way, so I guess it's good for us.

Yvonne,
Cheerios is it like those adults eat type Honey Starz or something? I very suaku.. as i said EJ eats very boring things..

Pink,
I read about your Fancl pills.. err, u are taking that to lose weight ah? Are u crazy??!! You are so thin! Please don't risk your health like that hor.. I really dun trust this kind of pills one.. cos u won't know got what long-term side effect.

The Christmas party, I also want to join, but can't confirm which date yet. I am planning to go for my wisdom tooth op just before christmas, also dunno by then my mouth will still hurt like crazy or not.

Astro,
read that you taking on RP. FYI, there is a infant/child care centre in RP called Learning Vision. You can consider that as an option. I heard the part-time rate is quite affordable.. so u can also consider say bring Teng there for 3 times a week, then the other 2 weekdays, u let your mum handle him alone (if she can la).

Starfruit, Edde
Actually I very resistant to hiring cleaners/maid unless I know the person or the person comes with high recommendation. Cos I don't want to risk cos I am quite bo-chup by nature.. hahaha.. as in, if I hire that person, I will just throw everything to her one lor.. i don't want to stress to tell her what to clean or not to touch and of course worry if the person runs through my things.. sorry, not sure if i m making sense here.. today i very happy with my cleaner.. she is an Indian lady and she has been doing this for years.. she told me all her customers have been with her for years liao.. somemore, my neighbour who is very very particular abt cleanliness, is happy with her.. so that is why I can fang4 yi4 bai3 ge4 xin1 and let her do!!

Starfruit,
I owe u money for Shoo Shoo.. jialat, i also dunno what size i order.. hee i think it's L size.. nevermind, u dun have to check. I will transfer u tmr hor.. cos i going out soon for another 1yr old birthday party!
 
QQ: Fucidin can be used on Tian as well.. My PD gave this to Anna for her milk rash before. And it works for other rashes that appear on her face now and then.

Astro: Hehe... The first time I assembled anything in my life is a toy for anna. And I felt so pleased with myself after that..
happy.gif
 
bbgirl: heee. he better pull himself up with that later..tomorrow.. Miser quite automatic.. i think because the price nt cheap.. come back only faster fster assembled the toy for teng without being told.... so anxious.. he only does that for his laptops and such.. i was watching him do it.. one screw, 2 screws, 3 screws... 17 screws?!! OMG...

and i think teng might be too tall for the giraffe leh.. chiam. i thought it would be taller.. hmmm..
 
then i also wanted to get the big discovereies table for teng also. but figure out lose lose situation if argue with miser to buy both on the spot togehter.. still got play yard.. i thikn i got to fight these battles wisely.. hmmm..
 
Astro: You mean the giraffe is taller than Teng when he sits down? Even so, he shd still be able to pull himself to stand lah.. Actually I thot you wanted to get the gates first? Change in mind?
 
Astro: Since that first toy, I've been assembling all the toys for Anna myself. Am very proud of it..
happy.gif
The only exception is the spinning zebra - I was bathing and my hubby beat me to fix it up..

There are also as many screws for the standup ball blast anna has (the other version of giraffe)...
 
BBgirl: i think teng is taller than the giraffe when seated. so more difficult to pull withsomething that is at ur chest height?? ehh. not too sure.. could be teng sit down might be just right forhim to pull.. hmmm. tomorrow will know.. i hope so lor..

never changed my mind. still will get.. but hope to have more bullets to shoot miser.. coz if this time can encourage teng to try to pull to stand. and miser sees the effort and teng's attaempt on the giraffe.. i think i dun have to waste so much saliva.. and i would be able to get the playyard very soon.. and also the big discovery table.. haha.. manipulative astro..
 
hihi. today quite quiet hor.
i suspect tian's sore throat is back. quick quick feed her more water, barley water. & fruits, etc etc.. hope can get well soon. initial symptoms started to show.

bbgirl, oh ok.. get it. will go buy the fucidin and standby. thanks. this name sounds like some ingredients for bread.. lechitin. haha!!

astro, got your girrafe already? u very efficient leh.

autum, EJ is tall... your shoo shoo is L size. cause EJ has same foot length with tian. 11cm. fyi. i bot M,L XL.. cause one for each stage. all gifts from tian's gugu-s and ah yi.
happy.gif

tian menu also quite boring except weekends. EJ's boring especialyl weekends. haha! funny la.
EJ is always no problem with his poo poo. guess he is not prone to have constipation. tian is not, last time fully bf also got a bit problem. when i was pregnant, i seriously constipated, maybe its RELATED again? my theory again.
 
Autum: Cheerios is the pick becos it's made of corn, different from most other such "cereals" out there. Plus, each cheerio is quite small, as the baby picks it up, it's also training her pincer grasp at the same time.
Taste wise.. I'll say it taste similar to unsweetened breaskfast cereals we adults take.
 
bbgirl: haha.. this kind. i wun fight with miser.. nothing for me to prove mah..haha. screw only mah. not difficult. ask him to cook a dish for teng. i think he might jus faint.. haha.. so i do the more 'difficult' things.. whahaha..
 
bbgirl: cheerios is whole grain oats.. not corn.. and i find it salty leh. my prefrence lah..

QQ: ya.. certain things. i very efficient. other things. i procastinate till cows come home .. still might not do.. like cleaning my house.. haha..

think u use fresh apple puree, and feed tian apple juice.. and all the other 'p's.. should get her bowel moving liao..
 


Astro: In this case, the giraffe is shorter than the standup ball blast. Hmm.. I'm just looking at the table anna has. It is shorter than her (seated), she's still able to use it as a support (By placing her hands on the table top) to stand. So even if the giraffe is indeed shorter, all is not lost, shd still work..
